the Nevada County~“Exhibit.
San Franoisdo, January. 31, 1898.
Eprror Transcript:—When I .wrote
on the 29th instant I made use of the
expression, “Her older and younger}
sisters,” referring to the date when our
county, if I may use the word “our,”
took upon herself the duties and re-.
sponsibilities of a county-government.
Such is the case, however, strange as it
may appear, for Nevada county was
thd 28th in.the order of creation, and
the date was the 28th of April, 1851.
Placer follows on the same date, and
her number is 29. Sierra was created.
Previous to:'these dates there were 27
counties organized, the date of their
organizations being February 18, 1850;
Among the number was Yuba, which
‘was number 27, and the three counties:
first named, or the territory now comprising the same, was called Yuba. As
there are at present 57 counties com: .
prising the. State, Nevada stands almost in the center of created counties.

day she stands forth as an example of
distanced them all in the ES and toGay she is recognized as the leading interior county of.the State. Nor is this
my individual opinion. In the past
three days I have conversed with sev?
eral gentlemen of intelligence from
different parts of the State—some, too,
whose counties were competing with
Nevada—and the general concensus of
opinion. was ths came, and that is, that
whenever the peopis of Nevada county
make up their minds to succeed nothing can stay their course. In all communities, of course, there are some
narrow-minded men—some who are
slike pigs—some men who have not a
thought beyond the trough they feed
from or the swill they swallow down
with many a grunt of satisfaction.
‘These men get their feet in the trough
—to carry out the similie—and if they
get their fill they are satisfied. No
thought of the little pigs enter their
small brains; and they strut before the
feed which should be given to others
with a complacency which passeth all
understanding, and. say, unto themselves: “We are the great big HoGs,
and we don’t care whether any of the
little pigs get anything to eat or not.”
I shall make the application later on.
Let me speak of something pleasant,
and again of
THE ‘FAIR.
On Saturday morning I went to the
Payilion, as requested by Mr. N. P.
Brown, and introduced myself to Mr.
Shoecraft. I was cordially received,
but was asked to come back at 3 p. m.
as he was very busy. This I could
readily see. The whole Pavilion was
fn a chaotic state. “Confusion worse
confounded” was evident onevery side.
I was politely told to come in the evening when I announced myself at three.
This I did, but success did not meet
my efforts tointerview Mr.Shoecraft. ‘So
I picked up what I could and hurried
home to put on paper what you ware
already received. ~
I forgot to say that Judge McFarland, B. J. Watson,:.George W. Welch
and George Bennett were conspicuous
by their presence, There wére: others,
I presume, bat I did not know them.
And right here let me say that the
Hon. J. H. Neff and myself on that
night buried the bloody hatchet, and
ouce more we are the firm friends we
were before Mr. Wright threw an un
provoked stink-pot in the Miners’ Convention three or four years ago. Lam

gard for the genial, gentle. and. generous-hearted Mr. Neff. :

the doors were opened; I-put-inan ap-.

is a photograph of the Allison Ranch
mine and its works on the surface.”
The crowd was too great to explain
more.

placed in the show-cases prepared for
them. They made a glittering and
gorgeous showing. To make comparisons of our own would indeed be odious:, But let me say that it isthe
