Year by year the number of Amer.

LIFe's SILENT WATCHES.

Out of life's silent watches,
Out of the gloom of night,
Souls that foresee the conflict
Send forth their words Of might.
Heroes of art and science,
Wrestle alone for years,
Bringing at last some trophy
Worthy the whole worlds cheers.
Poets with brooding patience,
Toiling with courage strong,
Out of some lonely vigil,
Weave an immortal song.
Not through the whirl of pleasure,
Not from the din of strife,
But out Of the silent watches
Come the great deeds of life.

MOHAVE VALLEY LANDS.

Many people are making inquiries re-
garding the opening up of the lands of
the Mohave valley for settlement, says
the Kingman Miner. We learn that APP
pIication of the Santa Fe land depart.
ment has been made to the government
for the survey of their land grants and
the necessary amount of money depos-
tied with the land office covering the
work. Proposals for the survey of the
lands are now being advertised and it Is
probable that the work will be COM
menced in a short time. Owing to the
heavy growth of mesquite and other
brushy underground the work of the sur
vey will taxi several months and the red
tape of the government will delay the
issuance of patent some time longer. Ii
may reasonably be expected that the
lands viii not be open for a year at
least, while the government lands may
not then be on the market, the whole
valley. with the exception of the railroad
grant lands, having been withdrawn from
settlement pending the decision Of the
Geological Survey as to the feasibility of
a dam at Bulls Head, or the Colorado
river. The lands in the lower end of the
valley are to a great extent subject to
overflow, but the mesa lands are out of
the reach of high water and are said to
be exceedingly fertile. The Colorado lr-
rigation Company is supposed to have an
option on a tract of land from the rail-
o company and is making an effort

WHEN THE CHANGE WILL COME.

WHEN THE CHANGE WILL COME.
The twenty-second session of the Ne
vada legislature will go down in history
as the most extravagant and unbridled
aggregation of law makers that has
ever disgraced the State. Even Tie
sporting element which has been in COM
mand for weeks past has grown alarmed
at the recklessness displayed by the
members and have endeavored to call a
halt. lest the people in their might should
arise and crush them two years hence.
The gamblers were given everything
they asked for and in some cases a little
more han the cautious ones deemed wise.
Lynch law was upheld in the Assembly
and all-night gambling in both houses.
Every kind of play is legal in Nevada,
including prize fighting to a finish, pool
selling, hanging of prisoners to Telephone
poles by ~self-appointed committees AMI
five to seven cent fares pm the railroads.
The people are powerless to set them
selves right before the world at present,
but the Silver State believes that the
time is not far distant when public opin-
ion will force the correction of these
evils. The State will speedily become
headquarters for all the riff raft, bunco
men and disreputable characters of both
sexes. Decent people will have to bide
at home anu leave room for the strangers
and their graft. These conditions will
prevail until taxes get so high that the
so-called better element" will feel it's
pocket book pretty we'll squeezed and
then the change win come. The gooo
people will arise in their righteous indig-
nation and turn the rascals out. For the
fair name of our loved State we hope the
better element" will be touched with
promptness and most thoroughly.
