Railroad Work.

A great deal Of work is being done on
the railroad between Palisade and Reno.
A big force is camped at the sandcut, a
few miles west Of Palisade, and the work
Of Strengthening the road is being pushed
vigorously. In order to follow the sur
vey it is necessary to change the course
of the Humboldt river at several points
where it makes sharp curves Work is
also being vigorously pushed between
Browns and Wadsworth. The new track
between those points will be six miles
longer than the present track, but the
grade is so much less that the time be-
tween the two points will be shortened
thirty minutes. Between Wadsworth
and Reno an army Of men are working
night and day. The contractors have an
electric plant, steam shovsls, and all the
other ph%araphernalia Of modern railroad

Good News For

crate Here.

The Salt Lake Herald that arrived
this morning contains the following:
"Within the next day or two the
Tonopah g. Golconda Smelling, Milling
& Refining Company will be organized
under the laws of this State to operate
10 Nevada. The men behind the enter
prise include prominent Nevada. Salt
Lake and Cincinnati talent. aud before
the season is far advanced a smelter will
be in operation at either Golconda or
Battle Mountain, and the lead -silver
ores OF those camps, as well as the ST.
licious ores Of Tonopah will find a mar
ket at the company's works. The new
company will have a capitalization of
250,00O 81 shares, and it is learned that
the money to insure the success Of the
undertaking has already been subscrib-
ed. Pending the arrival OF certain 10.
terested parties in the enterprise, the
names Of the ~incorporators are withheld"
The editor was shown a letter that was
received from Salt Lake las. evening by
one Of our prominent citizens. l. threw
considerable light on the above, and we
are led to believe from the tone OF the
letter that Battle Mountain will soon see
in the course OF construction a large
smelling plant going up in our midst.
The parties interested in the project
mean business and it is almost a sure
thing that the plant will be built here.
This news is hailed with delight by
the people Of our town ard it can no
longer be do1bted that the town has a
bright future in store for it.

Cnrfew Bell.

Probably not before in the history Of
Battle Mountain has the town had a
curfew bell, but such is not the case
now as the town possesses n and Con-
stable Austin taps the bell in front of
the Capitol Hotel every night at 7;30.
This is an ordinance that we should have
had long ago as the streets is no place
for small boys at night. The little fel-
lows should bear in mind that they are
not allowed on the streets after the bell
is rung without a written order from
their parents. This is something that is
very needful and we hope to see it en-
forced.

Gave Us a Call.

e. H. Prentice, division freight and
passenger agent Of the Southern Pacific
Company, stationed at Reno. was in Bat
tie Mountain Monday and paid this Office
a pleasant call. Mr.. Prentice spoke en-
c uragingly Of the prospects OF Nevada
and also remarked that our town had a
bright outlook. Mr.. Prentice requests
US to state that he is DESTROYS Of securing
specimens of all kinds Of minerals from
the different mines in this district, for
exhibition purposes, the main point
being to send them East to be exhibited
in the railroad offices Of the large cities
for the purpose Of advertising the mines
in this vicinity. He would be pleased to
receive at Reno specimens Of all kinds of
minerals that are produced here, proper
ly labeled, together with the location
and a full description of the mine or
prospect SO that people desiring to make
an investigation can do 30. The idea Of
this is, that when parties in the East in
quire of the railroads concerning the
ores, they will be in a position to answer
intelligently any questions that might be
asked concerning the same.
Our miners in this district should
stand in and lerd Mr.. Prentice all the
aid possible in the way Of sending him
ore specimens as the project to be car
ried out by Mr.. Prentice is bound to
help advertise the State and at the same
time will mater ally aid our individual
mine owners t. dispose Of their proper
ties. We hope that all those who have
mines in the district, and in fact the en-
tire county will see 6t to aid Mr.. Prem
tice 10 this great undertaking which is
sure to be the means of attracting CAPT.
tai to this State.

NEW POSTAL CARDS.
when Four Millions Have Been Bum
died Up They'll BE for Sale.

Washington Evening Star.
A new cne-cent postal card is now being
printed at the Bureau of Engraving and
Printing, and when the first issue of 1000
600 has been counted and bundled the new
card will be placed on sale. Its distinctive
feature is that the new card contains a
vignette Of President Mckinley in lieu OF
President Jefferson's portrait The issue
of the Jefferson card will be discontinued
when the present stock on hand is ex-
hausted.
When desired by purchasers the new pos
tai card will be furnished in sheets OF
forty cards each. 1t Is expected this ar
rangement will effect a large saving to
purchasers who have their messages or adj
dresses printed on postal cards. Ia order
to avoid the heavy black device at the top
OF the Jefferson card and leave a clear
space for the postmark the new postal
card has three lines Of small type printed
about an inch below the top OF the card.
The card is thus divided literally into two
sections-one for the postmark and one
for the address. The official description
of the new card is as follows:
In the upper right-hand corner is a
portrait of the late President Mckinley,
three-quarters face, looking TO the left
with the words Postage One Cent above
and 1S43-McKinley-l9O1 below the stamp
and following it's elliptical contour. The
portrait used for the subject of the stamp
is one which was preferred by Mr.. Nc
Kinley himself The stamp is practically
devoid of ornament. To the left OF the por-
trait are three straight lines Of lettering,
the top line being one and one-sixteenth
inches below the upper edge Of the card
and containing in small capital letters the
words. the space above is reserved for
postmark. The second line is made up OF
the words, postal card In large. plain
capitals. The third line is I'm the same
type as the first, and reads. the space be-
low Is for the address only In the upper
United States, its position balancing that
of the stamp in the upper right-hand cor
ner. Above the coat-of-arms in the same
style of capital letters used above the
stamp are the words, United States and
below it the words of America following
the contour Of the coat-of-arms. Black
ink will be used in printing this card. The
card will be the same size-3h by 5k inches
las the old one bearing Jefferson's por-
trait"

UNsATIsFACToRY METHODS.

The first extended experiment in this
county under the first primary election
law enacted in this State is one that should
not be repeated in respect of the methods
used. The principle Of nominating candi-
dates by primary elections is right, and
the present law, though unsatisfactory, is
a step in the right direction. The law can
be improved upon and the principle will
be indicated. But the administration of
the law in the election just held is open
to severe criticism, and the methods used
were such as cannot succeed and should
not be tolerated in the Republican party.
No party can retain the confidence of a
majority of the people of it's own best
element that indorses or submits without
protest to such methods were used by
those charged with the duty Of giving the
new law its first construction and practical
application. In as far as the law was in
tended a measure of reform. though
an inadequate one its spirit has been ig-
nored. and if its letter has not been vio-
lated it has been construed, administered
and applied In such way as TO leave open
doors for fraud and invite resort lille
Ultimate and indefensible practices. If the
election has resulted in the nomination
of good ticket it is because majority of
Republican voters overcanh all the impedi-
ments put in the way of such a consum-
nation either by the law itself or by those
charged with it's administration, and gave
expression TO the real will of the party.
Under different circumstances the result
of that will and of the fixed purpose of
the Republican party to vindicate the prin-
ciple of primary election reform. 1t is to
be hoped the next election on the primary
plan i'll be held under more favoring cir
cumstances
