SENATOR NIXON
INTRODUCES
BILL
For the Increase of Salary of
Post Office Clerks of West
ern States will Provoke
DicuSion.

A bill that will be of w despread inter-
est throughout the West is to be intro
duced in the Senate at the forthcoming
session by Senator Nixon of Nevada at
the requs st of the postmasters of this
State, who are having great dlncuity an
retain ng cerks at the present schedule
of wages paid by the Department. The
average wage for office clerks is from
$40 to $50 and in Nevada it is mposs be
for a person to i've on a monthly sal
airy OF that size. At Reno, Goidaeid,
Tonopah, and in fact throughout the
State the postmasters are often COM
pei.ed to turn over a large part of their
salaries to the clerks in order to retan
their services. At Tonopah Postmaster
Booth resigned on this account, and at
Goidfeid recently the entire office force.
excepting the postmaster. walked out IN
a body rather than work for sS3 a month.
Under the postal laws special wage
can be pa IN certain instances but il
seems that this law does not Apply to
cities which have Offices of the second
class. TO which Tonopah, Reno and Go d.
fled now belong.
1t is the intention TO pace the vest
ern Stats In an entire y different class
ncation from those of the East, where
the average of wages is not SO h.gn.
Last year an attempt of this kind was
discussed by several Congressman. but
the bill was emascuiated n Committee
and it was made to apply only 20
Alaska.
Before the bill is introduced 1t is in
tended TO place it before ali of the
Western Senators and Congressman,
with a view of securing their co-opeIa-
tion.

Virginia City dispatch of yesterday
morning says: The Alta mine in me
south end, the key to the great Sutro
tunnel project, is en- 1re at this .iour.
The Virg mia City fire department, Di-
vide hose company and Go Hill Vol
unteers, together with every available
citizen here, and in surrounding towns
are now fighting to save the shaft II
possible. Good fortune is on the side
of the fremen, for there is no wind.
The build -ngs. including Superintendent
Halls residence and the office building
will be a complete loss. With the flames
eating their way toward the shaft the
engineer this morning remained at his
post until every employe, about twenty
in all, was hauled to the surface, from
the 1000 foot level.
Much excitement prevails here, for on
the Alta shaft depends he drainage
project in the entire South End. Its Ce-
struction means lne loss of thousands
of dollars and the delaying of the work
for at least one year. The loss alreauy
amounts to about 5000.

KRUTTSCHMITT SAYS C
& c. WILL BE EXTENDED

The party Of Southern Pacific officials
that has been in the southern mining
country for the past few days, looking
over the new road and the prospects for
extending the line from keeler to Los
Angeles, returned to Sparks a day or
two ago. In an interview Mr.. Kruttsch-
nitt said:
Il was very favorab,y impressed with
the southern country and the Nevada
and California line which the Southern
Pacific Company has Just acquired. 1.
is true that the company is now con-
templating the extension of the road
from Keeler to Los Angeles. The route
50 far as I have investigated 1t seems
to be very favorable for the enterprise.
There is no doubt but that the business
of the mines will be sufficient to pay
for the construction of the road in a
short time and the route will be much
shorter and less dreary than the one
now being used through the snow sheds.
The pre- -iminary survey of the road
from Kee'er will probably be made in
a short time and from then on the road
will be rapidly constructed
