NEARING A CASH BASIS.
County Is Now Less Than Three
Months in Arrears.

White Pine county is rapidly ap
preaching a cash basis and within an.
other year the Treasurer will be able
to pay all warrants on demand.
County Auditor Garaghan informs
us that at the present time the County
Is not more than three months in ar
rears with any fund, while with some
there Is only two-months delinquen-
cy.
1t may be added that the demands
upon the INDECENT sick fund during the
past year have been far in excess OF
what was anticipated and in addition
to the regular receipts, 81, 703 has been
transferred from other funds within the
past three months. Those receiving
county aid at the present time are
nearly all aged people who are unable
to care for themselves and there is no
way of curtailing this expense at the
present time.
On the whole the financial condition
of the county is extremely satisfactory,
which Is creditable alike to the tax
payers and the county officers.

Protect Themselves.
During the past season the attention
OF the Board OF County Commissioners
was called several times to different
matters alleged to be nuisances IN Ely,
but owing to the fact that the town Is
unincorporated and its boundaries not
fixed, that body often found difficulty
In regulating the alleged grievances to
the satisfaction Of the parties making
the complaints.
And now it is found that the waters
of hurry creek are being contaminated
by the Chinese laundry located on the
bank of the stream in the central part
OF town. OF course conditions Ia this
respect are no worse than they were
before the laundry was removed to the
present site; but robbed of the high
fences and the screen of shade trees,
tho filthy habits Of the washee man are
more apparent, and hence the COM
plants that are being made.
Almost every other town of any i'm
portance in this State restricts the
Chinese population to a certain district
and Ely can not adopt a similar regu-
lation any too soon. The Nevada stat
utes provide means whereby any un-
organized town or village may avail
itself of the privileges OF an incorpor-
ated city with very little If any ex-
pense.
Simply by filing a petition with the
County Clerk, signed by a majority of
the residents OF the town, but which
must represent three-ffths of its taxa
BILE property, the County Commission
ers are at once empowered to act for
said town in the same capacity as
a Board of Trustees or Village Coun-
Gil, with full authority to establish its
boundary lines, abate nuisances, and
perform all such other acts as may be
deemed ad yisable for the comfort and
well. being OF its inhabitants.
The creek, which flows through the
length of the town is blessing that is
fully appreciated by our citizens gen.
orally, and all will protest against its
being converted into a sewer.

DEATH IN A SHAFT.

The Tonopah Bonanza contains the
following particulars OF an awful acct
dent which occurred at that place on
Thanksgiving day:
On Thanksgiving morning at 7:30
O'Clock gloom was cast over our pop
ulace by the announcement that An
thony Dunn or ''Tony" Dunn had been
killed in the Cutting & Brown shaft
From the facts evinced at the Cor
oner's jury it appears that the shift
had descended the ladder and on reach
ing the 100 level had stepped from the
ladder and gone to their respective
places of work. Tony Dunn and his
partner who were working in the bot
tom of the shaft, so feet below the 100
level, had gone into the drift at this
level for candles and returned to the
shaft to again take the ladder to the
bottom. Dunn was ahead OF his part
ner and was about twenty feet below
the level when his companion emerged
from the drift he saw the bucket rapid
~ descending the ladder which is used
for the track upon which it runs.
Dunn's partner grabbed the bell cord
and gave stop bell, but the rapid
motion OF the bucket and the short
distance it had to travel before over
taking Dunn it was impossible for the
top man to stop the tub. The rim of
the bucket struck poor Tony Dunn on
the left side of the head cracking the
skull wide open and forcing the brains
from the cavity. After the blow the
unfortunate fell backwards and TO the
bottom of the shaft.

APREcIOUS METAL.
Platinum, Like Gold, is Where
You Find IL.


Some few weeks ago the NEWS an
nounced the accidental discovery of
platinum In the vicinity of Ely, and
now comes the San Francisco Chronicle
with the following account of similar
discovery in California:
''The value OF platinum Is beginning
to be appreciated by the miners of
Shasta county. There is a brisk de-
mand for the mineral which commands
a price of about $3.50 an ounce. A
great many of the miners have hereto
fore paid no attention to this mineral
and have allowed 1t to go to waste, says
the Redding Searchlight, being unac-
quainted with the appearance Of the
metal and knowing nothing of the value
of 1t. An aged German who is engaged
In mining between Shasta and Keswick
was In town Tuesday morning and
shipped to the United States Mint at
San Francisco by express ten ounces of
the precious metal. He said that he
had been working his claim for some
time and had allowed the strange metal
to pass without particular attention,
until, while at work one day, a Swede
approached him and asked him why he
did not ss,e il. He replied that 1t was
OF no value. when the Swede explained
to him that it was more valuable than
gold. The miner immediately began

A RAILROAD COMBINATION.
s. p. L. A. Road May Become a
TranScontiuenta Line.

A dispatch from Denver says Senator
Clark of Montana and Thos F. Walls b
of Colorado have decidedito join issu, 5
and build a transcontinental railroad,
and 1t is further stated the Chicago,
Rock Island & Pacific road will become
q link in the proposed new line.
This would give Senator Clark an
outlet for his Los Angeles and Salt
Lake road which has been left without
one through the absorption of the two
Colorado mountain lines by George
Gould. The Rock Island would get a
new and short route to California.
Mr.. Walsh some time ago incorpor-
ated railroad to be built from ouray
via Gunnison to Pueblo. II his alliance
with Senator Clark is perfected he will
build on probably to Liberal. Kansas,
where he will connect with the Rock
