PURPOSE OF
MINING CONGRESS

One of the principal purposes Of the
Mining Congress now in session at
Dead wood, South Dakota. is to i'm
press upon members Of both branches
of the national legislature that miners,
the product of whose labor is one Of
the principal sources of national wealth,
have as much right TO official recog-
milton and assistance from the govern
ment for the promotion of that import
ant industry as farmers, and that the
establishment of a Department OF
Mines and Mining will result in as
great benefits TO that industry as has

The prospector should be given the
privilege to have his samples OF un-

An abundance Of god cold pure

a half of the camps. an agreeable sur

ing the water. i'll is near Natchez pass

THE RACE QUESTION.
No Negroes May Be Imported to
Nevada by Contractor Who
Will Bold Canal.

A story has been going the rounds Of
the state press to the effect that seven
teen hundred negros would be employ
ed by the contractors who will con-
Struct the Lower Truckee canal. State
photographer Taylor states that this is
doubtless mistake. The negroes will
not be brought here If white men can
be secured for the work. Under the
terms of the contract the work must
be finished in eighteen months.
The federal laws preclude the en-
ployment Of Mongolans but do not bar
negroes. However. there Is no GER
tainty that seventeen hundred negroes
will be imported and probably there
will be very few of them employed on
the work. A strong protest will GO
forth If there are any importations from
the south. The people Of Nevada
would rather have the work on the
canal deferred a year or two than an
undesirable class Of people brought
here. r
Should the negros be imported the
citizens. in their present temper, you'd
most certainly aid the spirit of the law,
if not the letter. In the preservation Of
order and the protection of the women
of this state. The contractors will
doubtless bear this warning In mind. -

GROUND
BROKEN
The Stone Company Com
mences Canal Digging In
tended to Revolutionize this
State and Build up Wads-
worth.

Through the courtesy of w. D. Lin
ION a DISPATCH reporter this afternoon
accompanied him to the canal site
where the Stone Company has just
commenced to dig its section as per
contract with Uncle Sam.
The point Of commencement we
Judge to be less than three miles south
bearing very little east from
Wadsworth. When the flat is reached
the smoke of the immense steam
shovel may be seen curling lazily sky
ward
1t took five days Of hard work to
move the shovel from Wadsworth to
where II is now at work The moving
was done by laying sections Of tenn
porary railroad track and in such man.
ne. all the steam shoves will have to
be moved.
The machine is one OF the largest
and most powerful of its kind and at
each lift brings with it about two tons
of dirt.
The Stoae Company has contracted
to construct seventeen miles of the
canal When the work is under way
at full capacity there will be four or
five Of the big machines in operation
at different poiEts along the line, and
within few weeks at least one ma
chine for each five miles OF the canal.
Stone Company's wagons. harness,
scrapers and other equipments are ar
riving daily. A camp has been made
about mile east Of the point Of COM
nencement.
Today there were 26 men at work.
They work eight hours day and la
borers receive 81, paying rs cents per
day for board. When the crews now
working for the company in California
arrive there will be two shifts at work;
one from a. m. until noon. the other
from l:3o p. m. to.9:3o p. m.
The cut today shows a good surface
soil with silt under 1t. There is no
doubt the canal will have but little
seepage In the section where the work
is on at present. also the land is OF No.
4 farming quality.
Mr.. Linton teok a number Of photo
graphs Of the scene that will surely one
day be historic Of perhaps the greatest
event that ever happened in Nevada
The practical beginning Of a scheme
thatis to revolutionize this State. to
make the desert blossom as the rose.
to provide homes for thousands OF citi-
zens of the United States. to prove to
the world the great capabilities OF our
soil, to adom the wastes Of lands With
Prosperous communities and the edit
cational distributions that follow.
Here many fasteners will learn that
farm In the west means comfort and
bank account against the eternal
struggle for livelihood the same class
Of men have ia endure among the
rocky hillsidss Of New England, and
elsewhere. and here all strangers may
have proof Of that pfoeigality Of our
soil when irrigated that has ever char
acterizsd 1t and endeased 1t to US.

One Answer for All.

Lancaster. n. Y, March 3O-Post-
master Remers Is still in receipt cf
many letters asking il his cure has held
good.
1t will be remembered that some
time ago the particulars OF Mr.. Rem
ers' case We're published in these col
umns. He had been very low with
Diabetes. Physicians could do nothing
to save him and he grew worse and
worse till someone recommended
Dodd's Kidney Pills. A treatment Of
this remedy was begun and when eight
boxes had been taken Mr.. Remers be-
gan to see an Improvement which con-
tinued as the treatment proceeded till
he was completely restored.
He has since enjoyed perfect health
and is as robust and able man as any
in Lancaster. Interviewed the other
day, he said:
MANY people wrote to me when the
story of my case was first printed and
some write to me yet, asking IL the
cure was only temporary and il the
diabetes has returned. 1 have only one
answer to everybody. Three years ago
was very low with Diabetes. The
best physicians failed to help me and
Dodd's Kidney Pills cured me. I am
well and strong and have not had the
slightest return Of the old trouble"

Who Paw, for staxe Co.tu,n..

The rule is that managers supply all
costumes not of the present day, the
actors paying for modern dress. How
ever, some plays about smart people
have been put on so elaborately lately
that the producers have paid for the
gowns. Women with regulations as.
modish and original dressers, such as
Miss Elsie de Wolfe. Miss Lillian Rus
sell, and Miss Amelia Bingham, go
abroad every summer TO search the
Paris establishments for novelties. In
a modern play the stage manager gives
a list of the OolOrs that may be used in
a scene, and lets the actresses settle it
among themselves. The leading woman
gets first choice. and so on down ac-
cording TO each actress importance in
the play. The costumes for Broadway
extravaganzas are always made from
colored plates by an artist who con-
suits with the stage manager, and is
subservient to him i'm case of a dis
agreement.-Leslie's Monthly.
