TNote.-It is to be remembered that in all the
census figures Of 1886 Washington means the orig
inal city alone, and does not include Georgetown
and the outlying District.
''These figures show that the average
Washingtonian Is as heavy a taxpayer and
labors under many times as heavy a burden
of municipal Indebtedness the average
taxpayer in the cities enumerated. Not one
of these cities has so large a percentage OF
floating non-taXpaying population as the
capital. with its one-third negro populatio
and its thousands of temporary visitors
and the government employees, and this
non-taxpaying population reduces the nomi-
nal per capita tax levy without reducing it
in fact by cash contributions. Not one of
the cities enumerated has so few money!
making resources in manufactures trade
and commerce, in proportion to it's popula-
ton, to meet this drain of taxation.

1t Is Said the People Are Not Enthusiastic
Over the S. p. Proposition.

General c. s. Warren, the well-known
Montana and Nevada mining man, who
has recently interested himself in the
Ionopah district, came in from tha
camp this morning and is staying at the
Lick House, says the San Francisco Bull
letin. He was accompanied on his tour
by DIR. j. M. Merrell, ~well-known in con-
nection with the Granite Mountain and
Bimetallic mine of Montana, by Colonel
John Girber of Lincoln. Cal, and by DR..
Chamberlain of Bakersfield.
Referring to the matter of the con-
struction of the branch line from the
Carson & Colorado into the camp, Gen.
pie, whom he had met. were by no means
enthusiastic over the rumored PROPOSE
ton made by the Southern Pacific Com
pany that Tonopah should subscribe a
quarter of a million towards the build
ing of sixty-five miles of road.
of course said the General, Il am
not personally aware that such a prop
osition has been made. but the story is
current and it is generally felt in the
camp that as the present rate for team
ing supplies in is $40 a ton and for team
ing ore out is $40 a ton. the railway peo-
pie might easily afford to build the line
and cut the rates in half. 1t wouldn't
take long to pay for it at that rate for
the place is simply choked up with ore"
The most important news that Tono-
nah had for a long time was the striking
of water by the Tonopah Company in the
Junction shaft of the Sparrow claim at
a depth of 400 feet, The place hitherto
has been absolutely arid and has been
dependent entirely on water that was
teamed in. An ice plant has been in
stalled and the price of ice has dropped
from 10 to S cents a pound.

Resolved, That it is the sense of the
Democrats of Nevada, that fusion should
be affected with the Silver party upon q
basis just and honorable to both organi-
cations"
The Reno Journal to arrive this after
noon has the following: !.
There is now nothing to stand in the
way of complete fusion and perfect har-
mony. The committee on conference has
concluded its labors and distributed be-
tween the two parties the offices for
which nominations are to be made.
This distribution was fair and equable.
The Democratic party gets the offices
carrying, perhaps, the greatest honors.
but the silver party has those carrying
the better salaries and the greater pat
ronage.
When the conventions assemble today
the ratification of the report of the com
mittee on conference will be first in or
der, after which the decks will be clear
ed for the nominations, which will be
quickly made.
There are only two offices where the
contest will be worth the name and they
will doubtless be disposed of with celer-
ity. Following Is the distribution recon-
mended by the committee on conference:
To the OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES, Congress
man, Acknowledgement. Long Term Re
gent and Superintendent of Public In
struction. The other offices fall to the
Silver party, and are Lieutenant-Gover-
nor. Justice of the Supreme Court, Sc
cretary of State, Treasurer, Controller,
Surveyor-General, State Printer and
Short Term Regent.
The respective delegations will then
nominate five District Judges. According
to the report of the committee on pera-
rnent organization and order of BUSH
ness the candidates are to be assessed
for campaign purposes in sums ranging
from $40 to so.
