Why Not!

There does not seem to be any
lack of candidates to fill the positions
in the gift It the Legislature. The
members of the Silver party are just
as greedy for the crumbs that fall
from the official table as those of
either of the old parties. Some will
be left and then what howl will go
up from The disappointed patriots
Elko Independent.
This would be a good time to en-
force the Jacksonian theory. TO
the victors belong the spoils' may
be put in force when the Legislature
meets and a selection of its officers
is being made. We are of the
same opinion as the Independent,
that if some of the Silver men are
left howl Will ensue, especially il
preference be given the goldbugs. =

FATE OF NINE DISCOVERIES,
Apparent FulllIlment Of Supersti-
tien Prevalent in the West.

There is a superstition prevalent IN
the gold fields Of the west that the
discoverer Of rich find is sure to
meet a violent end, and some thirty
five or forty instances in point are
really quoted. Out Of the forty or
less twelve were shot or stabbed to
death in sailor and other brolls,
five committed suicide, three were
engulfed by iandslides, five turned
murderers and robbers and were
caught and executed in various ways,
one fell into boiling spring and
had the flesh literally stewed from
his bones, while others have dlsap-
peared, and no one knows what ever
became Of them. George H. Fryer,
once the millionaire proprietor OF the
Fryer Hill Mine, committed SUI
eide in Denver, after spending the
last nickel between himself and star
walton. The discoverer of the great
Standard mine California; was
caught and and swallowed up IN an
avalanche. Col Story was killed by
Indians. William Fairweather Of
the famous calder Gulch Mine died
with the ''frenzied horrors. after a
continuous two years debauch. "Fer>
rell of Meadow Lake died with a
terrible disease in a San Francisco
hospital. The owner Of the great
mine, the 'sHomestake," became a
highwayman, and was shot while
robbing a stage coach. John Homer
tried the same route that Fryer
went. ''Doughnut Bill ''Nine-
mile Clarke" "Old Eureka" and
many others were killed in saloons.
Plummer, known as montana, the
discoverer of the richest mine in the
world and at one time "sheriff Of
the largest county in the United
States" was finally hanged on his
own scaffold.

MULDER LOCATED.
An Order for His Arrest Tele-
graphed.

Ever since Professor Mulder left
this city, Sheriff Botsfor.l rs been
pretty close on his trail by means of
the telegraph.
He drove from Virginia City to
Wadsworth and took the East-bound
train for Ogden, where he was joined
by his wife. He then went to Omaha,
from there to ST. Louis, and thence
to Galveston, Texas, where he is now
located.
He was traced by means of box
of valuables addressed to E. Robert
son. As he was known to have
shipped the box the Sheriff kept
track Of it.
1t was sent to St. Louis and he
wrote from Galveston to have it for
wardtd to him. The agents in st.
Louis were wired to keep watch of it
and they wired back that it had been
forwarded to Galveston, Texas. Mr..
Botsford wired Chief Police there to
be on the look out and yesterday re-
ceived dispatch that the man was
there with his wife. Botsford wired
orders to arrest him on the charge of
obtaining money and goods under
false pretenses.
The District Attorney was away
and there was now some doubt as. to
how to proceed. Last evening Chas.
Hofer went to Virginia to consult
with Judge Rising about having a
Grand Jury fnd~ an Indictment at
onc9 and have him brought back. 1t
was talked on the street yesterday
that the CountyCommissioners would
not allow the bill for expenses IN
bringing him back. The report
caused great deal of discussion.
The cost will not be over $500 and
every business man and taxpayer in
the city who was talked with was
strong in the opinion that he should
be brought back and made an ex-
ample of.
He has swindled business men in
this city out of about $4,000 and the
feeling is general that he should be
required to spend few years IN the
penitentiary.
He is also wanted by Railway
company in New York which he sue
ceeded in swindling out of several
thousand dollars for the loss of Il
trunk which afterwards proved to
have been filled with old iron.
If Ormsby county makes an exN
ample of a few of these crooks they
will give us wide berth in the fu-
ture.
