MANTON-GOvERN PROGRESS,

An air of activity is noticeable at the
Offices and warehouse of the Manton-GOvern
Co.. The faculties of this young concern at
the Porto Rican end have been materially
increased, in conseq uence OF winch they
have made two new additions to their selling
force in the persons Of T.. j. Hamilton, OF
Pittsburg, Pa, to cover Ohio,n northern Penn
sylvania and northern New York, and H. VI.
Burn, of Charleston, S. c., to cover the
Southern States. Both of these gentlemen
are well known to the jobbin9 trade through
out their respective territories.
Advices received in the last mail from
Halvor Syitzer, the company's factory and
plantation manager, are to the effect that
excellent progress had been made IN the
plantations, and that the new factory at
Aguas Buenas is now III active operation,
therefore, patrons of this house may now
look forward to prompt attention as regards
the filing of then orders. Mr.. Svitzer states
that everything is running smoothly, and
that a decided general improvement will be
very noticeable on all their products. He
further adds that fortunately he ha, been
able to surround himself with an efficient
force furthermore, that no goods will be
permitted to leave the factory until they
have been doubly inspected. Consequently
no matter what the price of the goods turned
out by this company, the work, quality and
general appearance will be above par.
Mr.. Manton states that they have not as
vet failed to receive repeat orders from the
trade that their goods have been placed
with. In addition, new accounts are beng
opened almost daily.
Mr.. Ford, the New England representa-
tive of the company, paid a visit to the
offices last week, and at the same time
brought with him a very satisfactory batch
Of orders. He speaks very glowingly Of the
futnre for his concern, and IS more than
gratifed with the results so far obtained.
Mr.. Bowen, of Baltimore, is evidently
keeping very busy, considering the amount
of orders recently received from his terri
tory.-Zhe Io6acco Leaf, 30h Sept.

MANY MEN WORKING
TO REDUCE THE GRADE

Several thousand men, many
teams and numbers of steam shovels
are digging away at the cutoff be-
tween Rocklin and Colfax, and af-
ter all has been accomplished the
gigantic undertaking will not have
shortened the distance between the
towns much more than a mile.
However, it is not so much to
shorten the distance as to cut down
the grade that the contractors are
laboring. The grade will be cut
from 126 feet per mile at present
to only 70 feet, which will enable
faster time to be made, and after
all this is the main aim of all the

FLOCKS OF GEESE ALREADY
OBSERVED FLYING TO

According to the traditions of the
duck hunters whenever a band of
ducks is seen flying south, it is a
sure sign of an early winter. If
this is true, the present winter
should set in soon for those who
were up at an early hour yester-
day morning observed two f1ocks of
geese vending their way to a warm

ANOTHER BOUQUET FOR
THE RENO JOURNAL

The general contempt which is
felt by practically the entire press
of the state for the Reno Journal
is fittingly expressed by the Fallon
Standard in this manner:
"Nevada's newspapers managed to
get along harmoniously without SER
ious quarrels and lowering until the
Reno Journal passed into the hands
of Kilbourn's agents, when a TRADE
of unethical abuse was at once di-
rected at every newspaper in the
state that happened to have an opin-
ion that ran counter to the Jour
nails line of reasoning.

SNOWFALL IN THE MOUNTAINS

The weather department review for
Nevada in January Just issued says:
The snowfall for January was ex-
cessive. the amount being sufficient
to make this one of the seasons of
greatest precipitation on record. The
amount in the Truckee, Carson and
Walker River basin was probably the
greatest for this month since January
1890. The mean temperatures rang
ed from degrees to degrees above
normal, and there was an unusually
large amount of rainfall reaching
attitudes of 1000 to 7500feet. These
conditions caused the snow TO melt
at the lower attitudes, but large
amounts of well packed snow were
stored away In the mountains of high
er attitudes. The melting of snow by
rainfall and high winds caused high
water in the Carson, Truckee and
Walker Rivers on the 14th 10Th and
10th. The flood stage was not reach
