The Courier. (Genoa, Nev.) 1899-1904, 1903-01-30

A recent dispatch announces the fact
that Lincoln's birthplace is being neg
lected. 1 believe it. Not only his
birthplace, but Lincoln himself, and
his principles and the principles he
contended for, and everything that
brought the Republican party together
are being neglected. I am further
convinced that the statement is true,
because the Republican party has no
more use for Lincoln and his princi-
pies and the principles he fought for
and stood sponsor for The sooner
Lincoln and his principles and the
principles he fought for and was the
embodiment of, are forgotten, the bet
ter the Republican party will like it.

Big Chestnut Bloom.

1t is said that there was never such
prospect as this year for chestnuts
in the recollection OF the eldest citi-
zens. AS far as the timber can be
seen the chestnut blooms loom uI
most prominently and the tops OF the
trees seem toppled over with blooms.
In the mountain districts the CROP
prospects are good. The grass
and oats and corn crops will all be
splendid, but the apple crop and the
prospects for other fruit are not good.
The coal and railroad and timber ex-
element is at high pitch.

which see no reason to doubt, that 1t was
not only q gift enterprise, but q scheme
for the distribution OF prizes by chance.
1t was also a lottery"
The assessor. Mr.. Darneille, when the
matter was referred to him by the Com
missioners announced that 1t was his opin-
ion that the device came under the scope
Of section 1888 Of the District code, defining
