The Assessors Contest.

As heretofore reported William Eae-
ton began action 10 the District Court
on the 18th inst. against George Watt
contestipg the vote as counted between
those two candidates by the Commits
sioners for the Office of Assessor, and the
District Court stayed an especial cleo
ton for said office till the matter could
be heard.
On being served with the summons
Mr.. Watt employed Torreyson and Sum
merfeld andsued out a writ Of certiornri
in the Supreme Court on Thursday last
and directed to the District Court stay.
ing the Court and citing the record in
the case TO the Supreme Court on the ID
day OF December.
Last Friday afternoon Judge Thos
Wren of Reno, on behalf of William
l~Gaston, filed in the District Court, al
Austin. a petition for a writ of mandamus
against the Commissioners of Lander
county to compel them to issue a certi-
ficate of election to William Easton as
Assessor, or to show cause in the Dis
trict Court on December I'd at 10 O'Clock
a. N. why they had not done SO.
On Saturday afternoon Judge Jones
was served with a writ of certiorari
from the Supreme Court, and Judge
Wren arrived in Austin from Reno Sat
urday afternoon, and electing to persue
his remedy by a mandamus against the
Commissioners instead of Mr.. Watt and
had Mr.. Easton dismiss the action ol
Easton VS.. Watt.
1t is not known at the present writing
whether the Supreme Court will require
the record to be SEM up as ordered, but
il it does it will be sent in due time us

As the matter now stands the suit
brought by Easton against Watt has
been dismissed, as above stated, and

May Hold New Election.

1t is generally understood that the
necessary papers and afidavits are be-
ing drawn up for presentation to Cover
nor Sadler, asking him to issue a call
for another and special election in White
Pine county, owing to Irregularities in
the ballot issued il that county at the
recent election.
These irregularities, in the opinion Of
some, are sufficient to justify the throw
ing out OF the entire vote from that
county and the holding Of another cleo
ton. If such is held, the voters OF
White Pine will vote for everybody, from
Congressman down to Constable, while
the balance of the State can look on
with feelings of longing and regret.

The Conference With the S. P. Officials.

DR.. W. II. Hood and Mrs. Edith Jen
kins, two members of the com mittes
who were appointed to go to San Fran
cisco and consult with the Southern Pa
cific officials in regard to the proposed
change OF the road from Battle Noun
tam, have returned. The committee
met With the officials last Thursday af-
%ternoon at 2 o'clock. They had a pleas
AIT interview with the officials and we're
given a very cordial reception.
The officials informed the committee
that the company intended changing
tie road at this point. but did not state
just where the cut off would occur, but
it is thought hat it will start from
Piute, a siding five miles west of town.
Ii this is the route the company will take
it will leave Battle Mountain about one
mile and a half to the nearest point of
the railroad.
The officials further stated that the
company would leave the track from
Piute to Battle Mountain, which would
enable them TO run the freight into town
on this spur. The officials also said that
the town would nor be deprived OF tele.
graphic communication as an Office
would be estab ished here.
1t is a foregone conclusion that the
company will make the change and that
in the course of time our town will be
off the main line of the railroad.
The peculiar feature of the railroad is
that it does not consult the wishes of
the dear people, as a few miles cutoff
and time saved is Of more value to them
than all Of the patronage given them by
the villages along the line. From the
improvements going on along the main
line, it looks like a number of prosper
Gus little towns in Nevada will be sacri-
feed to save time while ra~ilroading.

Thanksgiving Day.

To day is Thanksgiving Day. We oI
this little community have every reason
we believe to give thanks for prosperity
that has attended us a community anc
in general during the year. 1t is one ol
the days out of the 365 that we should
give attention. From its origin it hal
been a day for thanks first, for ~feastine
second, for merriment third.
Founded on a beautiful sentiment, the
day is one of the fairest and brightes'

the most faithful observance by all who
understand and appreciate the object Of
