it paid the miners $40 per day per man, and
good pay gravel is now being found.
The Weed property is virgin ground. The
channel was never followed into this ground,

ARRESTED THE WRONG MAN.

The arrest Of Supt. Hoskins. of the
city railway company, for not vestibul-
ing the electric cars was a mistake.
There is just one man who is respon-
sible for a noncompliance with the law,
and his Dam is Thomas Lowry. If any
arrest was to be made, he was the mar
who should have been captured.
Mr.. HoskIns does not hold a position
which makes him responsible for
v%estibuling. In fact. he could not incur
the expense necessary to comply with
the law, except by Mr.. Lowry's sane
ton.
There certainly should be some move
made to enforce the law, though we
question whether any n needs to be
arrested to compel action. The street
car company have willfully disregarded
the law until we are in the midst
of winter, and it will be spring before
the work can be completed. 1t is not
probable that the company intended to
pay any attention to the law until the
matter was agitated. As is too often
the case with large corporations, they
relied on defying the law, aud forcing
it to be a dead letter.
Whatever legal remedy, by arrest or
otherwise, can be applied to Mr.. Lowry
should be done without delay, and an
endeavOr made to teach hiIi. that laws
are enacted to be obeyed.

"In Old

In the present days of depression, in
not only things theatrical, but in all
kinds of business, a play or entertain
ment of any kind that can draw is con-
sidered a phenomenon in its way. For
this reason, if for no other. SIN Old
Kentucky" which opens at the Grand
tomorrow night, should command at
tention, as it has been the winning at
traction in the whole of Manager Lifts
very successful career. This play is to
a certain extent connected with the
history of theatricals in this city, for its
merits we're first applauded by a st.
Paul audience; and it is to the good
opinion placed upon it by III press and
public that Mr.. Lift attributes his de-
cision to buy it and the record it has
made show that he did wisely to base
his venture on such a foundation.
Among the novel features of the play
that caught the popular fancy from the
first night was the ~"Pickaninny Band"
and although it vas only put in as an
incident of the play, the little colored
boys were made ~afeature in spite of
themselves, or the calculations of either
author or manager. Aside from its re-
freshing novelty of scene and situation,
its exciting incidents, and at times
thrilling episodes, its story develops a
beautiful little love story. quaint and
pathetic at certain stages, but thorough
ly~ effective throughout.

sity of consolidating the two states may
be, the power to do so is open to ques-
ton. The congress is empowered to
create new states out of the territories,
and as a war measure it assumed the
power to create a new state Out of the
territory of old Virginia. But neither the
constitution nor the laws give TO 1t the
authority to deprive any community OF
the powers of statehood after it has once
been granted and has exercised them.
We have never been forced TO consider
such a case, and good constitutional
lawyers are of the opinion that the
power to create new states does not
carry with it the power to consolidate
pie therein residing.
But even if the authority to CONSOLE
date Is conceded. the plan will arouse
much opposition. The population of
the two states is reasonably homoge-
neous. Mining is the chief industry in
both, and the miners characteristics
predomInate. But there are many am
bilious politicians in both communities.
Those of Nevada have the present adj
vantage Of possession of the senatorial
seats. They are men of unbounded
wealth. and can IN the future, as they
have done i'll the past. purchase the
legislatures as they would a drove of
cattle. They will not surrender the ad-
vantage they now hold without ades-
perate struggle, and the result. in all
probability, would be thar, while the
representative might be chosen from
the present territory of Utah, both of
the senators would be selected from the
present state of Nevada. This would,
of course, give the rotten borough of
Nevada an undue influence and prom
inence in congress, and lead to discon-
tent, ifnot rebellion, in Utah. containing
six times the population and four times
the territory of the old state.
1t may be that Nevada will improve
somewhat within the next quarter of a
century. Although her mines are being
exhausted, irrigation is improving her
arid plains. and agriculture and stock
raising may in time be profitable. AS
she is already invested with statehood,
perhaps it would be as well to permit
her to remain as she is. Her influence
is on the wane. and she may soon be
powerless for harm, as she has ever
been for good. 1t would be somewhat
OF an injustice to load the new state of
Utah with such An incubus. and her
people would doubtless protest against
statehood granted under such condi-
lions.
Congress will do we'll to consider the
proposition of the Oregon senator we'll
before approving Of il. Even though
its legality may be demonstrated, its
expectancy is open to question.

nations left over. however, not included
in this class, and among these are the
nomination of Judge Hornblower for
justice of the supreme court, and of
Robert E. Preston for director of the

being m of the most intensely inter

record of success that is remarkable.

Excellent Performance of "Rfch-

eIieu."
1t was unpleasant to note that Mr..
Whiteside'S production of "Richelieu"
was greeted by a small house at the
Metropolitan last night. But to those
who failed to attend the performance.
it can be said that the loss is their own.
Mr.. Whiteside is more satisfactory all
the way through in his Richelieu than
in his Hamlet, which is rather unac-
countable, since his makeup in Rich
ellen scarcely conceals his youth and
immaturity; still, he is very strong.
His voice is especially good, and
he uses it with excellent skill.
His personality is too buoyant to en-
able him to assume the role of the old
cardinal to as great perfection as. we
are bound to feel, he will with a few
more years experience. His expression
is very fine, and i'll this part it is pleas
ing to note that he does not rant. 1t is
only in facial expression that his play
ing is defective; and as that is attrib-
utable To his youth, it seems almost a
crime to find fault with an actor on that
score. He plays the part we'll through
out, rising to the great occasions with
force; and while one is conscious
throughout that a very young man is
essaying the part, one is pleased with
the young mans Interpretation of it.
Mr.. Whiteside does not pay sufficient
attention to the dressing of his play, and
this detracts from the perfection of the
whole. His stage manager needs COACH
ing. +,
The support is fairly good through
out. and Miss Wolstan makes a sweet
and pleasing Julie; but is not quite
strong enough in the more intense
scenes. Mr.. Vroon played the part of
Barradas with good effect. Although
Mr.. Sturgeon. as Mauprat, is unneceS-'
sarily intense, he is all actor of consid-
cradle promise.
Same bill tonight. y
Walker Whiteside will repeat Ham
let" at the matinee today and "Riche-
lieu" tonight. Tomorrow night he
will give a special performance, being
the last of his engagement in this city,
presenting the popular play ''Othello."
This will give the people who have
been so busy about the holidays an
opportunity to see MI. Whiteside, who
gives magnificent presentations Of the
legitimate roles.
