The Pine Nut skeleton.

\ skeleton Of man was found mt
Pine Nut Valley recently, and many
gucsscs have been made rs to who the
person was. 1t is thought by some
people that the remains are those of a
convict named Jones who escaped
from the Nevada State prison in the
great break OF 1871. 1t will be re-
membered that several escaped con-
victs killed young Poor, mail carri-
or betweed Carson City and Aurora.
Jones was one OF the murderers.
The murder was committed while
other conyicts of the party were away
digging potatoes, and when they re-
turned to the place where they were
camped and learned OF the murder,
Burke, ono OF the party who had been
digging potatoes, had quarrel with
Jones over the murder, but peace be.
tween them was finally declared. a
few days after the murder Burke and
Jones separated from the other con-
victs and went off together on fora
ging expedition. Burke returned
alone and Jones has never been heard
of since. Burke was captured and
returned to prison and admitted that
Jones was dead, but nothing moro
would he tell. 1t has always been
supposed that tho two renewed their
quarrel and that Burke killed Jones
Perhaps the skeleton found at Pine
Nut Is all that is left of Convict
Jones.-Reno journal.

CONVICT LABOR,

Al a meeting of mine owners at
Chattanooga resolutions were adj
dressed to the members Of the
Legislature protesting against the
employment Of convict labor in the
mines recently purchased by the
state, and now being opened up in
Morgan county, or in any other
mines. The resolutions state. thai
as now worked the mines already
in operation, are supplying all the
demands for coal, at prices lower
than ever before in the history of
Tennessee, and that any reduction
of the present wages would bring
starvation to thousands OF people.
We believe that this Is the truth
and we also believe that the state
should not employ its cheap convict
labor in competition with the
miners, who depend on this method
of m iking their daily bread.

If Mr.. Evans plurality was not

Tribune.
So you have said time and again.
You made this observation before
your bosses had even formulated
their partisan plan of action, and
before you knew what you
were talking about. You might
have been entitled to some excuse
for your course at that time, but
now such an expression is not only
ineXcusable, but is unmitigated rot
and stuff. You have seen how
completely your alleged investi-
cation is being manipulated by the
Turney lawyers and with what
persistent unfairness every point
so far at issue has been decided
against the rightful Governor; you
have seen how every precaution
has been taken to prevent as far as
possible al investigation of frauds

Hasn't it dawned upon you that
the investigation you are boosting
is and can be nothing else but a
sham, a mOckery and delusion?
Don't you think your readers
would appreciate Il little common
honesty and fairness on your part
in dealing with the question?
You know, If you know anything
at all, that it is the purpose of the
returning board ring to seat Mr..
Turney, if they can; they will
violently twist the law, disregard
evidence and resort to any techni-
cality that may help them to ac-
compliSe their purpose. These
things. they have already done;
where, therefore, is the good to be
accomplished in attempting further
to deceive the people by reference
to the returning board as an "inves-
tigation committee Why not
II it the legislative board tn re
turn Mr.. Turney to the Governor
ship? In other words, tell the
truth; call the thing by its proper
name and quit whining because
honest newspapers express their
belief that the whole controversy
was settled even before the alleged
investigation was begun. Own up;
acknowlege that you and your
crowd wouldn't let Evans be seated
though he had majority of the
votes because you were afraid you
couldn't get him out; and that this
poll tax business was selected as q
basis for contest because it would
be easier for partisan committee
to manipulate the testimony in
alleg, d infractions of that law tt
their own advantage than in any
other way.
All this being true, you must ad
NIT that it is quite natural Tor Mr.
Evans to have some slight misgiv

the boys and girls in the State shall

comes from Congress refusing to
