The county commissioners at their
meeting this month took up the last
county bond outstanding amounting to
$500. The county is now free from
debt, and has cash balance to the
credit of the different county funds of
$4,000, which is better showing than
many counties in the state can make.

Enterprise: Comstockers are be-
coming more and more interested in
Tonopah, and it would not be at all
surprising if there was an exodus to
that camp next Summer. The COM
pany will take charge Of affairs at the
end of this month and already plans
and specifications are being drawn up
for some big work. Two carloads Of
machinery are new on the c.. & c..
railroad and the gallows frame for the
5O0-foot shaft is being framed in this
city. The company intends to sink to
a depth of 500 feet, and if the ore bod
les hold out, water will be brought
into the new camp from a distance of
forty-five miles. The cost OF putting
in water mains, etc., will be $3.50. 600,
the money for which is already guar
anteed. A contract has also been let
to build a telephone line to Sodaville,
a distance Of sixty miles, which will
cost 5000. Although 500 horses are
engaged in hauling between Tonopah
and the railroad, it is estimated that
the ore o on the dumps cannot all
be moved before next May.

Strict Construction of a Statute.
The late Hon. Marriott Brosius of
Pennsylvania once said:
when old Judge Ben Wade was a
circuit judge in Ohio, there was a law
on the statute books of that state pro-
hibiting the testimony of a negro to be
heard in court. Wade was an intense
abolitionist. One day in the trial of a
case a man black as Erebus was offer
ed as a witness. The lawyers got into
a wrangle about it. When they were
through, Judge Wade delivered him
self thus: The statute which provides
that a negro shall not testify in court
Is n disgrace to the state, and 1 will
construe it strictly. Counsel have pro-
duced no evidence to show that this
man is a negro; therefore. Mr.. Clerk,
swear the witness!' Perhaps" added
Mr.. Brosius, with a chuckle, Judge
Wade was color blind"

A Cheyenne, Wyo., dispatch of De-
cember 5 says: A gigantic combina-
ton is bling formed at Rawlins by the
sheep men Of what is known as the
Sweetwater country, for the purpose Of
excluding flockmasters from Utah and
local cattle men from encroacbing
upon what is known as the Red Desert
winter ranges, in Sweetwater county.
1t is proposed to lease and buy from
the Union Pacific every alternate Sec
ton owned by the company and there.
by control approximately 1900, 900
acres Of the finest Winter feeding
ground in the West. By leasing all of
the land, which will also give them
control OF the alternate government
sections, the sheep men will hold full
sway, and range conflicts, which have
been frequent, will come to an end.
The sheep lei who propose to lease
the land offered the railroad company
a rate of l cent per acre, or $4,000 per
year for the land. The proposition
has been wired to the Union Pacific
general Office at Omaha, and it is ex-
pected that the deal will be closed in
a few days.
