"New York." unhesitatngly came the
answer.
IL mean the largest city in the world,
said the teacher.
AS promptly came the reply: "Nev

Out" expostulated the teacher, "a
did not say the largest city in the United
States. but the largest city in the world.
"New York." persisted the boy.

not have the correct answer this time

They are Here.

In every town, big or little, there is a
gang of fellows with acute cholera NOR
bus. The convulsions of their brains
are always cramping and they have a
doleful time. If Il calamity threatens a
town they multiply its certainty by ten,
and its desructiveness by a thousand.
If good thing is coming they divide it
by two and sniff at it.
And when man gets out and digs
and makes dollar and half or two
dollars day they intimate that he stole
it and that it is counterfeit anyway.
They are men of type the world over.
They never build churches; their names
never head subscription papers for IL
braries or schools; they never go deeper
in their pockets than their suspender
buttons, and when they have scheme
they expect to call public meeting and
have it put through with a whoop; work
is not in their bright lexicon. Some
times the Lord gives them money
probably as a horrible example to show
that money and happiness aren't abso-
lutely welded. But when these fellows
get money they put it at interest in an
other county and keep the mortgage in
Missouri to escape the Assessor.
The question that naturally arises Isl:
what do they get out Of lifeY Where
are they ahead of the game? Board and
clothes are little compensation for living
What else is there in life for these roost
ers? Certainly there can be little fun in
peddling gossip and gloating in the mis-
fortunes OF others. Certainly these sour
headed codgers would be happier if they
would lend hand, not hammer to the
world. Certainly their children would
be prouder among other children, and
the names more blessed if they put in
little time "for the good of the orderr'
But what is the use OF wasting time on
that crowd. The Bad Place must have
some fuel and it might as well be them
might indeed be better than to be good
straight timber, that is bent by the Cir
cumstances to its own fall.

Recapitulation.

The State has had its eye on the acts
OF the present Legislature, mainly on
the extravaganza, or the financial con-
dition that the treasury be left when the
body adjourned. 1t is fact that an ex-
ira amount Of money has been appropri-
ated, but when the cause and effect it
winnowed over, it is found to result in
good sound grain and results that will
act for the benefit of the State in every
particular.
Take for instance, the appropriation
for the carrying out Of the Irrigation
measure. This one bill caused great
deal of discussion and some harsh press
comment. The results as planned in
the measure are for the benefits of the
State and the people. Should the bill,
in conjunction with the national law re-
suit in the building Of one reservoir and
the reclamation of one farm. the bill has
done its mission and the State has in
vested its money to good advantage.
The ST. Louis Exposition appropria-
ton of $4,000 is broad minded law.
1t is contemplated to advertise the re-
sources of the State. 1t will give Ne
vada showing among her sister States
and should one capitalist invest in Ne
vada and place ten men on the pay roll,
the bill has accomplished its purpose.
Advertising is the pulse of a people
and nation, and without public dem
onstration in this respect, the resources
OF State are lost to those looking for a
chance to invest money that cannot be
found in the congested cities and non
mineral producing States. The invest
ment is good one.
The appropriations for the State have
increased, SO has the population and
needs. There is not a public institution
that is rot in need of improvement, as in
many cases the institutions are crowded
for room. In order to meet the con-
dition, the treasury OF the State has
occu Cdiicu uPtu W uibioh tLc iuuN.p,
and the Legislature, with business
view in the law making, has given the
aid required.
The State tax rate has been reduced
five cents and the taxation must be
raised to meet the demand of the treas
ury. 1t can easily be done by the State
Assessors. The prevailing and equitable
idea is to make low rate and better
valuations, which now seems more likely
than at any time in the history of Ne.
vada.
When the general condition is glanced
over and the appropriations viewed from
q business standpoint, the work Of the
twenty-first session seems to be in ad-
vance of many sessions. il not the best
on Nevada's record.-Carson Appeal.
