Wavk: Having littlo to do and much time to do it in, I thought I'd again and do some of it. Almost everybody seem bent to White Pine, and I thought better of yellow pine, so I ran down to Truckec to make arrangements for some. The railroad company are so ab airbed in advancing to completion the pri common dawn here mary work of construction, that or slow freight is way-billed east of Argenta point about 05 miles west of Elko. The present demand for lumber is chiefly at Car lin, Elko and Whtte Pine. Truckee lumber men have offered *1,000 per car load to Elko, but money will not buy the favor, and friend ship properiy goes for naught in this busi ness, as it generally should where the public is commonly interested. Before I lumber shipped, some other business may suggest itself or be offered, and I'll presently take stock in neither White or Yellow Pine. get Elko and Carlin are the attractive railroad towns—the former having the White Pine trade and traffic and the latter seeking it with an energy which bids fair of success. Carlin is 23 miles nearer by rail, and from 8 to 15 by wagon road to White Pine than Elko. Carlin has the advantage ol extensive railroad shops and liberal strips of arable soil with streams of delicious water. Elko is an incipient county seat and has mountain surroundings in which coal is found in small quantities with large prospects; and the report is that rich gold quartz has been found near by Carlin ha3 the better proscris in sight, and equally as good unseen. Lots in Elko, 25x100 Teet on the two main streets facing on the railroad track sell readily at from $800 to $1,500; in Carlin, 25x80 lots are freely sold at $500 to $800. Business (?) bid them up to those figures, and then curse the railroad company for charging such human actions justify prices. My notes the assertion that notwithstanding thousand» may be penniless and grubless, yet the man who has control of the meat and flour at such times will not sell for what they can afford to, but for ail they can get. Get all you can and keep all you get, is a maxim of practice. Christianity or the live and let live principle is only practised where self interest does not conflict. I would almost advise you to re view your past life and see how much you ve lost and are likely to lose by a course of strict and frank dealing. Yon should *« get up a mine, " eome down here and in corporate and use the Wavs and all other available influences to make it appear rich and "sell" your friends as well as foes, and put money in your puree. Hatch up some scheme to "sell" the unsuspecting. This Fat J. Malone has the credit of being in the forgery busi hen«, and it has proved most too bold au enterprise for him. So I would not counsel He stands charged with three dis tinct offenses, and the impression prevails that he will be convicted on all. He is at largo on $3.000 bonds in each case. How his method of getting the funds or the public is about as just as that of hundreds of not made penal by statute, is the main business here. ness that biz ever, modes in vogue The shoemakers to the number of about . . to ruin stopping ment of such prices as will make the manu facture cost more than the article will sell for in mark««.. Of all men. the class com posing the labor societies are the worst one mies to the laboring man. They assume to controi what they cannot create in other ■ever hiring of Chinese, and yet they are the great est promoters of Chinese labor. The China man is reliable for steadincs* and sabordiua tion; labor societies are the exact opposite. Manufacturers and contractore an« betng forced to employ the patient Mongolian, and if every white man does not be an mdepend ent man and fix with his employer the time and price of his own labor independent of societies, he will soon see the results of his fears in füll practice and beyond his reach. Above all things, a i«or man should be free to accept the best wages offered-be they more or less than societies prescrit«.
