whole time to the supervision of the
Schools in. his county. School
grounda, where’ practicable, must be
adorned with fruit and ornamental
trees and shrubbery. The State
Teachers’ Institute is abolished.
Union Grammar Schools of two ‘or
more contiguous districts are abol—ished. A census marshal must not
be, an acting teacher. Instraction

branches in the severat grades in
which Wh may be required, viz:

Every applicant for an educational

The Grass Valley Union has struck
a large sized mare's nest. In our
report of the Supervisor's doings,
we stated that the Deputy Assessor
was instrdeted to assess money in
Savings’ Bank, of John Corbett, of
Grass Valley;’’ whereat the Union is
enabled to make up an item to help
fill out its Jocal column. We are
glad it was published that way for
the Union's sake, and wonder why
hat paper did not pick up a few
to fill up with. We exdeavor .

The open-hearted, fuli-breasted, :
‘\Whole-sduled Michiel Reese, appeared before the Board of Equalization .
at. ‘Ban Francisco, asking 0 reduetion.
of ent on thirty-seven ge sepas

Reeseis one of the most solid men in
thes State—weighs about 300, and
pays out about $50,000 a year in taxes. He’sa whole taxpayer's ticket .
in himself. His application for_reduction did not apply to mre thar
one-sixth of his property.. He made
. Board. Said he did not wish tohide
to’back out:he ‘would die immediately.. He neyer.played a ‘‘block)
game,’’ and verily, believed that if he .
lived twenty-five years and should be
have a lot left at the end of that time.
He said he had indorsed for one man
to the tune of $650,000, and amid
muck merriment stated that he never
collected rents; says the Chronicle.
The applications of Mr. Reese referred to thirty-seven parcels of préDerty which the Assestor had valued at
about $780,000. Michael wanted
this reduced ty about $480,000, just
to knock off the odd $300,000, you
know. Tlie matter was referred to
the usual committee.

Heavy Sale of Mining greeny
W. H. Kinder sold to the Gold
Run Ditch and Mining Company,
for the sum of eighty thousand. dolJars, the following mining property
in Gold Run Mining District:Twofifths, undivided,of the Druid claims;
one-half, undivided; of the Gould Run

thereto, extending up the ravine as
far as the Rawley claim; one-half undivided, of the Bay State claims

‘the Kinder & Co, tail flume, in
Squires’ Canyon; Kinder's interest
in the Abel & €o., flume,. being a remaining term of three leases of undivided part, together with tenements.

say nothing of small transactions to
the amount of $20,000 or less, there
have been sales of mining and ditch .

Railroad Mistake, ~~
In yesterday's TRanscrrpt we published the sworn statement of E.
Black Ryan, agent of the Central
Pacific Railroad Company,as follows:
Tne Assessor of said county -has
assessed said property for the years
1872-3 as follows, 7 .
30-25 miles of railroad
and telegraph tine at
$14,000 per mile, $363,000 00
‘30.25 miles rolling stock, 100,813 0U
Building and structures
on Bummit and ‘Fruckee; 19,000 00
653,813 00
This is exactly as it appears in the
statement, and the reader will see
that the footings make it $171,000
more than it really is. We did not
add the figures up, presuming that
it was correct. We call attention to
the matter only for the object of
showing that it was not an error of
ours.

At It Again.
The Grass Valley Union says that
“it is reported at Nevada City that
small pox is epidemic here."’ That
is the tirst we have heard of any such
report, and we think we have as good
an opportunity of knowing it as the
. Gnion's informant. fu order to shield
that paper from the indignation of
the people, the Union endeavors to
cast the blame upon a ‘Nevada paper.” You are welcome to all the
capital you can make out of it.—

The Beanitner ‘hoists the name of
Horace, Greeley. @t the head of its
column as the. ‘chief Demo‘cratigstandard bearer, and says that
his nomination is due to his *‘ster‘ling hénesty”’ and ‘“agnanimity.”” “

palm off on th pedple of this country the picture of a respectable lookwith an immaculate shirt collar neatly turned over a fashionable vest and
confined with a shoo-fly neck-tie, artistically arranged, is only equalled

A Mistraxz.—The Nevada Transcrrpr makes the following statement the text for some malicious
comments:
The San Francisco Bulletin published an article a few days ago, in
which it attempted to show that the
interior of the state was on the decline.
The Bulletin published no such article; on the contrary it published
one going to tac that the general
condition and prospeets of the whole
State are excellent.—San Francisco
Bulletin.
‘When we wrote the answer to the
article on the ‘‘Decay of the Interior,’’ we believed then, and do now,
that it was published in the Bulletin,
but yet we might be mistaken. At
any-rate, inorder to allay any feel.
ing in the matter, we accept the
Bulletin’s apology.
