THE haste with which the mis-
sionariaries are evacuating the
country is one of the most notice
able things in connection with the
Chinese trouble. Having brought
the wrath of the Monaghan horde
down upon the world, it would
seem quite the thing for these
Christian gentlemen to stay in.

gigantic task which the suppress

This, however, is a duty which is

FROM all appearances the com
ing convention of the Silver Party
in Virginia City, will be the last
one the party will ever hold, and
after its adjournment there will be
no more Silver Party in Nevada.
The cause of this is bad manage
ment in the party and the greed
of a few office seekers. No party
in this State ever had SO many
men of principle in its ranks as
did the Silver Party when it was
organized, but the scramble for
patronage by the members of both
old parties, who had not been for
merly recognized, began at once;
manipulators saw their chance to
do business, and they did it, to the
ruination of the party, and the end
is at hand. Although to-day is set
as date for holding primaries to
elect delegates to the State Con
vention, there seems to be very
little interest taken in any county
in this State as to who goes to the
Convention, and nobody seems to
care to go. With the end SO near
in sight, it seems to us that the
best thing the Silver Party can do
when it meets in Convention in
September next is to pass all nomi-
nations, draw mp resolutions of
condolance on the death of the
party, order the publication of an
obituary notice and adjourn sine

One day the kilograms declare
that there. are strong reasons to
believe that the ministers are still
alive, and the next day the news
is to the. effect that it is not pos
sible that the whites have escaped
being massacred. 1t would ap-
pear that the allied forces are act
ing rather slowly in the matter of
getting authentic news. If the
foreigners are alive news undis-
putable to that effect should have
been received before this. The

company should be uniformed.

man said that the hustlin reminded
him of the early days of Kansas City

such heroism.

and howled There was sich excite
ment in the town that soft soap was
allowed to boil over, bread was burned
up in the ovens, and most folks forgot
to feed their hogs. Some idea of what

Holdfast's idea that a fireman should
always be on duty, and he advised ev-
cry member of the company to wear
his uniform day and night. When the
first thunderstorm came along, the fire
bell rang. and the company turned out
and stood ready to rush to the spot if
llghtnin hit anythin. If there was a
dog fight in front of the town hall. the
company come rushin up, and if any

progress. He got his company out
and marched them to Sunday church

in full uniform. Old Mrs. Hopkins was

Outfit of Men and Teams for Grading
the Balance Of Washburn R Dad Soon

City Council Grants Right Of Way to
the Road Across City Streets
Into the City.

EAlsaa'HE. + aEN .FEr-EEN.E
The work of grading on the balance
of the Bismarck, Washburn & Great
Falls railroad is expected to begin in.
about a week. General Washburn
will be here about the 23rd and will
oversee the beginning of the work.
An outfit of men and teams will ar
rive here April 20. There will be
eighty teams and about 200 men. This
outfit will be busy for the early part
of the summer finishing the grade be-
tween Bismarck and Wilton and then
work between Wilton and Washburn..
Winston brothers are in charge of the
work. Two carloads of graders tools
have already arrived. consisting OF
plows, scrapers and the other appli-
ances used in the work. The city
council at a meeting last night by a
unanimous vote passed the ordinance
giving the road right Of way across
the city streets into the city. The
road runs for about two miles through
the city limits and crosses the streets
at each block, necessitating a grant of
right of way from the city.
The citizens committee is collecting
funds to pay for the property con-
demned by the court and granted to
the road for right of way. a consid-
cradle sum has been collected and
some of the payments have been made.
Z. W. Allshonse's outfit left Steele
today to finish the balance of his grad
ing contract about sixteen miles north
of the city.
