Typical mining State.

The case of Nevada is typical. It
looks barren enough to the trans
continental traveller as he sees it
from his flying train. And the cen:
sus figures are not encouraging.
Nevertheless Neyada has abundant
potentialities and will some day turn
the laugh upon those who have
made it the object of bitter and
ceaseless derision. And irrigation
is the golden key which will unlock
the door of its really immense re-
sources. If the good laws now used
for getting lands for speculation and
cattle grazing shall be repealed by
Congress. so that the government
lands can remain government lands
until they are irrigated by the gov
eminent and turned over to the real
homesteaders, then agriculture in
the West will double and quadruple
and mining and every Western in
dustry will jump forward. The
government work now progressing
so well along the Truckee river
promises much for Nevada. 1t will
bring farmers to the State and they
will produce food for men and for
age for beasts. Fortunately the
public lands under the Truckee
project have been reserved by the
Secretary of the Interior from entry
under the desert land law and they
can only be taken up under the five
year homestead law. All such lands
throughout the West which Uncle
Sam may irrigate this year, or in
the next twenty-five years, should
be in effect so reserved.
But take Nhe matter of the rich
ore bodies of Nevada. Why do
they lie undeveloped in spite of the
strenuous enterprise SO Characters
tic of Cur time? Simply because
they are remote from civilization.
The cost of hauling supplies in and
of hauling the product out is pro-
hibitory. These silent districts with
their potentialities of wealth are
waiting for something to happen.
And that something is irrigation.
The watering Of the lands in their
neighborhood means, first of all, a
permanent population which may be
drawn upon to furnish labor in the
development of the mines. Next it
means food for men and teams at
prices which will permit the indus
try to flourish. Finally, it means
an irrestible invitation to the iron
horse, for the railroad ever follows
where the forces of production point
the way. -Owensboro. (Ky.) Mes

A Frontier Sketch.

McCTaWi SoA SiA'
and O. P. Virgins were sent by
yit Carson from Taos, New
Mexico, to St. Joseph, Missouri to
Guide wagon train through to
california. Blunt was made wagon
hoss hence the name of the train.
T. vas voted that Virgins should
h.;n charge of the team as head guide
tor the reason that he was the only
me who had been over the trail clear
through to the gold diggings. There
we're 700 wagons in the train and
400 people. 1t was a motley
crowd Of prospectors and adven-
turers and in all that travelling host
there were but FIVE women.
In telling the story Of the trip Mr..
Virgins said: Nothing of any
consequence happened until we
reached the sink OF the Humboldt
!, Nevada. All through the Sioux
and Blackfeet country the Indians
were friendly and never once offered
to molest US, the size of our party
no doubt being the reason. for we
we're a small army with every man
heavily armed. The Humboldt
river is one of the most crooked
streams I ever saw, The trail did
not follow its serpentine winding
but now and then the river, after
circling around over the country,
would come back to the trail and
follow it along for a distance and
then be off again, finally emptying
into into the Humboldt sink or
rather lake.
We had reached what was known
as Lawson S meadow, a large tract
Of wild lupines that beginning at the
lake extended up the river for ten
miles on each side for two or three
miles. My, but it was deep, tangled
mass. The clover was all OF ten
feet tall and bent over at a higth of
eight feet and interlocked. The
wild animals mad made tunnels
through it so as to reach the river.
1t was an ideal lurking place for.
indians with evil designs. The van
guard Of the train had reached a
point two miles from the lake. The
guard of sixteen men, of which
Eben Smith was one, appointed for
the day to travel ahead as scouts,
instead of remaining close at hand
had gone on to the lake.
1--WE were discussing the attack
that had been made upon the
famous hunter and trapper, Lawson,
and his party Of six the year before
in this meadow. The indians had
succeeded in killing FIVE of his men
and he and another escaped. We were
in the Piute country and being such
a large party hardly expected an
attack from those miserable,
cowardly whelps who are only few
degrees removed from the diggers
III California. While we were still
talking shower of arrows few in
to our midst from the clover on the
south side. At the first shower
three of our teamsters dropped
dead. Quickly recovering from
our surprise we grabbed our guns
and commenced shooting into the
meadow. We did not dare venture
into it as we did not know how
many Indians were in the attack
ing party.
The engagement lasted for an
hour, during which four other
feamsters were wounded, one after
wards dying. In the meantime we
ran Our head wagons in behind a
large sand bluff an as the remain
ger OF the train ca e up they fol-
lowed. Our fire eventually got too
not for the bucks and they retreat
ed beyond Our rife range. Had

FRAUDS IN A BALE OF HAY.
Frauds In Watch Cases.

According to an article in the Cincinnati
Commercial, ffty-one pound stone was
recently found In that city secreted in q
bale OF hay of eighty pounds.
This Is not as bad Us finding lump OF
lead OF nearly one-half the weight of the
solid gold watch case secreted In the CEN
ter of the case.
Gold watch cases are sold by weight,
and no one can see where this lead is Sc
GREETED until the springs of the case are
taken out and the lead will be found SCI
creted behind them.
These cases are made by companies who
profess to be honest but furnish the means
to the dishonest to rob the public. 1t Is
not pleasant for anyone to find that he has
lugged a lump of lead in his watch case.
Another trick the makers of spurious
solid gold watch cases is to stamp the case
gu. S. Assay" The United States does
not stamp any article made out of gold
and silver except coin, and the fakir, by
using this stamp, wants to make the public
believe that the government had something
to do with the stamping or guaranteeing
the fineness of watch cases.
Another trick of the watch fakir Is to
advertise n watch described as solid gold
filed watch with a twenty or twenty-five
year guarantee. These watches are gem
orally sent G. O. D., and il the purchaser
has paid for tho watch he finds that the
Company which guaranteed the watch TO
wear is not in existence.
Tho Hampden Watch Company
OF Canton, Ohio, who are constantly ex-
posing these frauds, will furnish the
names of the manufacturers who are ip
this questionable business.
