Nevada. A state, aside from the
individual, is great because of that
which it produces, and | do not

enough in her valleys to support a

one county in Nevada about the
size of Illinois. -
The senator concluded as follows
''Mr. President. l repeat that no
graver question comes before this
body than the one now under con-
sideration. It has been spoken Of
lightly in the press as though it

Suicide at Rieby.

The body of A. L. Mcdonald
was cut out OF the ice under the
bridge crossing the river at Loren

blacksmith, about forty wears of
age, and had been missing for three
DAYS when the body was found. A
bullet hole in the temple told the
story of his death so plainly that
an inquest was not deemed necessa-
ry.
The deceased was a single man,
and no relatives could be located,

that date was Of $l35, 600, of which
500, 900 has no " been paid The
bonds paid today were called on
the first Of July, and the state treas
urer has since been endeavoring to
get track of them. They were fin
ally located in the possession of the
Northwestern Mutual Life Insur-
ance company, which company still
has large am punt of these bonds.
Interest on the bonds was only paid
till the first of last July, although
the insurance company made claim
foi the payment of interest till the
first of the year. This was refused
by treasurer Coffin. who also refus-
ed to make payment for the bonds
other than at t he treasurer Office
