The Sexrivet attacks the Carson Appeal for denying the bill is on the Statutes and claims the Appeal lacks full substantiation.

The Journal accuses the Appeal of trying to muzzle the press while noting the last Legislature’s contentious coverage.
The article notes hopes that the alleged offender, referred to as "the juggler," may recover enough to face public scrutiny. It emphasizes awaiting his convalescence before presenting him to the public, signaling a pending confrontation or legal action.

The turquoise here is hailed as among the world’s finest, reputed to surpass material from Austria Hungary or Persia.
Reno Journal reports a chunk from the Montana Tonopah mine showing quartz with sheets of gray chloride of silver and ruby silver. Assays claim 2600 ounces of silver and 23 125 ounces of gold per ton, worth about $2000. Major Ingalls will exhibit the specimen in the Chamber of Commerce today.
