‘Nevada County ne Gauge J
Railroad Company.
On Tuesday last the stockholders
of the Nevada County Nartow Gauge
“Railroad met at Grass Valley” The
meeting went off with the usual deThe Union says:
The men present were splendid reprerentatives of the enterprising, spirits of Nevada eounty. The fitst
_ Dasiness in order was the election
of seven Directors for the Company.
A ballot was held which resulted in
the choice of John ©. Coleman; E.
Coleman; Jas~M. Lakenan and Wm.)
Watt of Grass Valley, and Niles
Searle,.?. W. Sigourney and R. W,
_Tully,.of Nevada City, as Direetors.
The gentlemen chosen as Directors
are the same who have acted in that
capacity fromthe first. After the
election of Directors a. proposition
from the stockholders was offered,
. whieh advised thet the Dizestors+to-foree“the @hinamen out oF the
om stestetie-thewaliding of this: kind
should not enforce any forfeitureon
account of delays in completing the
road, against Mr. J. K, Byrne, the
Contractor, The proposition was
embodied in a resolution by Mr.» M.
P. O'Connor, “which was carried
unanimously,. A’ proposition was
passed to the effect that all stock
sold as delinquent. for assessments
Nos. 9 and 10, ‘should be allowed to
be redeemed by the owners of said
stock, or their assigns, op the payment of the amounts for which said
stock was delinquent and five per
cont additional on said’ delinquent
amount, the payment to be made
within ten days. The five per cent
was demanded im order to cover expenses of sale and other expenses
‘in the matter, On motion of Mr.
M. P.O'Connor, the thanks of the
Stockholders were tendered to: tha
Directors, and the motion was carried with applause. —
Since the: success of Sar Narrow
of road im various parts of the State
is being agitated. The pith ofthe:
whole of tho railroad-matter is correct='
ly and lucidly described by the Stockton Herald, which we publish, showing exactly what was done hore; and
what might be accomplished: elsewhere if men are wnitedi:and determined to go dhead. ‘The Heral@
says: ;
The completion of the Nevada
County Narrow-Gauge Railroad is
an event of which that county may
justly be proud, and one which other
counties may profitably look at as’
__an example to follow, For the last
“ten years a railroad has been considered a necessity to the permnence of the mining industries. of
that county, but until less than three
years ago it seemed impossible to
careselond that county, carried
no,subsidy but only'the privilege of
building’. with their own meats.
Fora month the road has been in
active operation two-thirds of its
length, to the beavtiful: village of
4 Grass Valloy,.and the redeipts have
been sufficient to pay expenses, interest on the investment and a small
dividend. The enterprise is. proving more renunerative than.was expected by its projectors, and it thoroughly proves the utility of natrowgaugeroads*for developing such a
country as ours, They asked for
no outside aid, took in no outside
partners, It is a*home made road,
and presents-an example from which
the projeetors of the Stockton and
Ione-¢an perhaps draw useful information. .
Hostilities . Commenced,
: A large seoret.anti-Chinese meet‘ing was held at Carson City on Monday last, No one was allowed to enter unless he signified his intention
‘to -become-# member—of-the—anti=}
Chinese: League. Determined. resolations.were passed by the meeting

Over a Thousand Shots a Minute.
The history of the Gatling. gun is

are six barrels (as with the Gatling
gun) but they revolve and are discharged by. the turning of a crank

“Invitation Committee,over the common
country, After appointing, the time
toassemble in thé morning to proceed to the seene of hostilities, the
meeting adjourned. Early on Tues
day morning the mob, numbering,
about 200; armed with pistols, clisbs
and knives, were scattered along the
line of the Truckee Railroad, but the
Chinamen did not come out to work,
and after waiting until after 8 a. m.
they marched into Carson, A few
minutes elapsed, when they ‘again
concentrated their forces and marchéd out to the Lumber Company’s
flume, and drove out the Chinamen
who were at work there, The Sheriff
deputized citizens to assist in arresting the ‘leaders ‘when they returned
totown. Large crowds were in the
streets discussing the course the mph
was. pursuing, and waiting their
return, but they got information of. the Sheriff's determination
-to-arrest the leaders, and they switéhed off and marched in the direction
“\of Empire, where it is understood
they will increase their numbers and
return. Afterwards the mob discoveved.a ballast train runuing up the
Railroad, containing about — fifty
Chinamen,and they made them scatter for their lives. The Reno Gazette, .
in speaking ofthe mob, says: “We
are not imfavor of the Chinese, but
we are emphatically in favor of justice. "And we fail to see why the
Chinaman has not rights as well as
those of other nationalities, We are
-willing to ensure all their rights,and
we are also heartily in favor of guaranteeing them punishment when
‘they disobey the laws, That man.
_who takes advantage of. power to in.
jure an unprotected foreigner is: not
quite. as good as the Chinaman whom
he persecutes. We have laws; let
them be enforeed against white as
well as yellow.”*

by the local. papers, and when the
