Teracify And Liquor

Many a truth is spoken under the
influence of intoxicating liquor, but
quite frequently it happens that the
speaker is afterwards sorry, when
the influence of the stimulant has
worn off, that he expressed his SEN
timents, in case he remembers the
incident. But there is also another
phase of the question, that is in ref
utation that tipping is an incentive
to truthfulness. 1t is a matter of
common knowledge in prohibition
or theoretically dry" communities
that a mar who feels in need of a
shot of red-dye will in nine cases out
of ten lie like the very old scratch to
get the liquor, if need be, and if
trouble follows and he is arrested for
disturbing the peace he will again. in
nine more cases out of ten. lie as to
how and where he procured the
liquor.--White Pine News.

Attractive Field Offered

A determined effort is to be made
to revive the mining industry of Col
orado, along the Lines that might be
well employed in Nevada. In an old
established camp like the Comstock,
the low grade ores present an attrac-
tive field of endeavor that's little ex-
plotted and the same is no doubt true
of other districts. 1t may as truth
fully be said of the Comstock as of
Colorado that for every ton of 500
ore already mined, there are 100 tons
of $40 ore awaiting treatment.--Vir-
ginia Chronicle.

Against The Commissions

Until the voters of Nevada elect
sound citizens to represent them in
the Legislature, we a expect to see
the need for Tax Commissions and
the like, while the taxpayers are
obliged to pay the freight. Some
counties are represented by good
men, while others are sadly lacking
in essential qualifications that would
tend to create laws for the better
ment of the State. The next Legis-
lature could do well by abolishing
some of the useless commissions and
thus stop the extravagant waste of
funds. High taxes will retard the
growth of the States resources more
than any other agency.--Gardner-
vile Courier.
