Old MInIna TOWN Destroyed.

Sonora, Cal, Dec. 1.-THE
old mining town of jamestown,
famous in California literature
as Jim Town." was almost
completely destroyed by fire to-
day. All the buildings were of
wood, and the fire, which start
ed in bakery, was unchecked
until all but two or three isOlat-
ed dwellings were consumed.
Jim Town was the supply sta
ton for an important group of
mines. including the well-known
Raw Hide mine. Many people
are homeless as a result of the
fire. The town possessed no
fire department, and before as
sistance could be sent from Sc
nora the town had been oblit-
Grated.

Washington, Dec. 1T.-Judge
Nelson of the Indian Territory,
who will aspire to represent the
territory in the house when it is
accorded statehood. is in the
city. In discussing the terri
+ory's future today he said:
THE Indian Territory would
be entitled to statehood if it
should demand it. In its limits
are 800, 900 law-abiding citizens,
and it is not right that they
should be treated as political
serfs. 1t is no answer to say
that our government has agreed
not to establish a government
over the Indians without their
consent. The assent of the In
dians and the logic of events
have modified and In some re-
spects abrogated the treaties.
The recognition of Il delegate in
congress would not make the
situation any worse for the In
dlans.
''In reality we have now a
judicial government, which is
about the worst possible for the
people of~ all races. | claim
that under the existing laws of
the United States, which recog-
nize the right of every territory
to a delegate, we had the power
to hold an election to choose
one. as we did, although con-
gress had failed to prescribe
any particular method, as it
usually does in such cases"

d. Thornton, editor of the Clay
County Advance, a weekly

by his family, when a load of
buckshot crashed through the
window from ont of the dark

Thornton's head off. Thornton
had but recently moved to Ash

pretended he will doubtless be
lynched, as excitement is very
