INAUGURAL
BALL
CARSON SHOULD Be MOVING
FOR IT
Make il the Greatest Social
Event in History

1t is already time that Carson was
moving in Tie matter of the innaugu-
raj ball to the new Governor and mem
bers of Tie Legislature.
The Mayor of the city, which is Mr.
Win u. Mackey, should go ahead and
select committee Of workers and get
matters in shape SO that when tie
Legislature meets. 1t will only be nee
essary to cut things loose and give
the visitors about as good time So
cially as they ever saw in the Battle
Born State
It has been some time since the Flu
sionists of Nevada have given a new
~ elected Governor an inaugural ball
When the party elected their first
Governor, Jones. the event was sig
nalized by a grand ball at the opera
house. :"
It was a very successful affair and
everyone who attended assured the
Committee Oh Arrangements that tue
evening was a most delightful one.
.Jhen Governor Sadler came into
Office, his accession to the chair was
brought about Dy Tue sad death of LAS
predecessor and there was no occa-
sion for fes.. les. When he was
subsequently elected the vote was SO
close that there was a contest and it
was about a year before the case was
settled. Us prevented an innougu-
raj uall.
lar. parks is elected by SO decis-
i've a majority that there will be no
all over the State to emphasize the
idea that the Fusion party is still on
ueck by a large majority and a lit..e
tipping Of the light fantastic - in
order
. 1t shUn be made a non partisan at
fair entirely and the whole STATE
should be invited Let the defeated
Republicans come right on the floor
anu take first choice of the fairest
women in Carson and take the heads
of the sets if they like. Let it be q
regular jolly good time and if Lem Al
len and a few COW county members
desire to apupear on the floor in tor
boots and no neckties, it should all &C
just the same
1t don't cut any figure whether Gov
ernor Sparks approves of this ball OF
not. He is a very modest man and
may shrink from the display and thu
gorgeous gowns and the entrancins
music. He can't stop it. however, ant
the dance will go on regardless.
Let the citizens of Carson walk
up and put the ball in motion a
once.

WHAT MIGHT HAVE BEEN.

Too Much Inouisitiveness Causes
Family Trouble.
Lady .Hartropp, of London, and Pas
tor Howard, clergyman, of Batavia,
N. Y, are both the storm centers of
scandal
The London dame is obliged to at
tend a divorce court every day and ap-
pear before a large and fashionable au
dience while her waiting maid re-
cites to the court (the newspaper
readers of Enegland) how she peep
ed through a number of key holes
and saw her mistress acting is q
most dreadful manner with Lord
Somebody, who was visiting the
house.
In Batavia the courts are trying to
ascertain why the Rev. Howard. who
posed rs a most exemplary man, was
receiving coloric love letters from half
\ dozen girls in his parish at one
time. while he also had a wife in evil
1t appears that the pastor was in
the habit of tearing his love letters
into small bits and casting them into
. waste basket.
But a woman, (no man would ever
be 80 curious), who saw the bits OF
paper rescued them and pasted them
together and was able to decipher
things that no self respecting limo
type operator would think, Of run
ming through the machine
All Of which goes to show that il
Lady Hartropp had taken precaution
to have hung a towel over the ke-
hole or Pastor Howard had cast hi.
love letters into the stove, all would
have been Well in both the HartropE
and Howard families.
As long as prying women will peel
through keyholes and delve into
waste baskets. the way of the socia
transgressor will be hard

POLITICAL
RECOGNITION
GOV. SADLER~ AFTER THE
WAR DENSHIP
His Action at the State Con.
venti0ns

The News Of the 18th inst, under
the caption Of New Appointments"
has this to say:
1t is related upon what ap-
pears to be excellent authority
that with very few exceptions
the incoming State boards will
employ the same, servants now
engaged. A change at the pri-
son is possible, but otherwise,
from Superintendent Of the Or
phans' Home to Governors Pri-
vate Secretary and Waterman
it is said the present incumbents
will remain.
After an election; there Is ,gener-
ally a scramble for positions which
the several boards have the power to
fill as required by law, and at this
time there are many applications for
these places, all Of which is embar-
RAISING to the granting powers. -"
Certainly there will be change Of
the Wardenship and some Of the mi
nor Offices of the State Prison.
II Is ulO1Ou Iu1l N1OtcIuO OdUlcE
will be the Warden, which will be
accepted by the people of the State
as just recognition of the Governors
services.
The Fusion members recently cleo
ted as members OF the Prison Board
will be commended by the party in
appointing so capable a man, feeling
assured his official conduct of prison
affairs will insure to the benefit Of
the State and the party he represents.
1t is safe proposition to say, that
had not Governor Sadler withdrawn
from the Gubernatorial contest. uei,
Their Silver party man nor Demo.
crat would have been elected at the
general election in 1902; three tickets
in the field would have resulted in q
Republican victory-this feature OF
the campaign no one denies.
Governor Sadler's adherence to par
ty and earnestness for success has
been manifested by his work in the
(; last campaign, for without harmon,
there would have been no success anl
Harmony" was his watchword.

Big COPPER

Lyon ! COUNTY PROPERTY
CHANGES HANDS,
Douglass Copper Mines to be
Worked

the following, which is a good peice
for a number of years that an extern
sive copper belt existed In that Sec
ton and the wonder has been that
the big deposits of ore have remained
in the ground all of these years:
deal in copper properties in this
section, which has been pending for
some weeks past, was consumated
the first Of the week whereby the Dou-
glass group Of copper mines, consist
ing OF eleven patented claims, passed
into the hands of company to be
known as the Douglass Mine and
Smelling Company. The sale of the
property was made to Messrs.A B.
w. Hodges and o. 8. Williams, the for
mer gentleman being the General
Manager of the CRANKY Smelling and
Refining Company, of Grand Forks, B.
c.. and the latter a prominent min
ing man of Los Angeles, Cal. Upon
securing this property the gentlemen
just mentioned organized the above
mentioned Douglass Min eand Smell
ting and incorporated under the laws
of the Territory Of Arizona The
| Company is capitalized for 81 500, 900
and its principal Office is in San Fran
cisco. The property was turned over
to the new owners this week Wednes-
day. the 18th, and F. L. Green, for
merly OF the Four Mills mines, Cal,
and lately Of the Ludwig mine, is now
! in charge.
1t is the intention of the new com.
pany to begin extensive development
work On the property early in Janu-
airy next To this end, and to push
the work as rapidly as possible, sew
eral power drills will most likely be
put in operation, and it is quite likely
that electric power will be brought
in from Virginia City or Carson, where
the Truckee River General Electric
Company has sub-stations. The ex-
plotting work will furnish employ
ment to a number of men for qu..e
a length of time, as it is the intention
of the company to most thoroughly
open up the mine before doing any Of
her work. This will probably mean
that development work will be car.
ried on for year or more. The mines
have already been continuously wor:
ked in small way for the past three
years, the result being very large
exposure OF ore at this date. and of q
grade which entities the property te
be classed II tsle first rank of cope,
mines IN this State.
Upon the completion of the suffici
ent development work to satisfy the
company that the property is as val
BILE as anticipa. a, a reduction plan,
, Of extensive proportions will be install
ed at convenient location for the
cheap and rapid handling of the ores
+ The plant will contain converter ant
: all the uptodate adjuncts necessar!
to put the product of the mine into re
fined casting copper on the ground
In all probability a railorad will reacl
the mine from some point on the C. {

made which will tend to advance tn

Get Rockefrlier's $500. .OOO Gift.

Treasurer George A. Plimpton Of Barnard
College announced yesterday afternoon
that he had not succeeded in raising all Of
the 500 900 necessary to meet the condition
OF Mr.. Rockefeller's gift Of 100000 for an
endowment fund of the college. The con-
dition was that the equal Of the sum Mr..
Rockefeller offered should be raised by
Jan. L. 1902. Mr., Plimpton said yesterday
afternoon that $4,000 had been raised,
but that he was not very hopeful Of getting
the balance Of $50 600 In time.
On account of tomorrow being q holi-
day said MIR. Plmpton, Il do not hold
that this u tho last day we have TO COM
plete the raising Of the conditional sum,
ar a great many have supposed. Con-
tracts falling due on a holiday. you know
mature on the day following, and for that
reason | believe that II we have the money
raised by tomorrow al midnight II will
be in time. II to-day we're the last day
there would seem TO be small chance Of
completing the sum. but even with to-
morrow as a day Of grace ] am not at all
hopeful of success
Mr Plimpton returned from Washington
yesterday whence ne had gone on business
independent Of the college. Immediately
on his return he made trip 70 the financial
district to see what he could do In the way
Of raising the balance, which was theu
600, 600. He got $4,000 Of this. but at ths
close Of business hours the balance still
stood az $4,000.
