EDITOR INDEPENDENr:-Yeste
received a letter from Columbia
Centennial mining district stating that
sheepmen there had surveyed $4,000
acres OF land which they propose to
purchase OF the State of Nevada.
This land is know to De mineral land
Should the State Land Office grant
the application and the transfer con-
summarized, it will work a great injur,
to the camp and seriously affect the
future development Of the mines.
The proposed purchase covers not
only mines. both placer and quartz,
but also timber and water which are
absolutely necessary in successfully
conducting mining operations, and
will lead to a serious conflict between
The sheepmen and the miners. ShoulA
= miner cut tim Der with which to stay

YARN and cook his meals he would
lay himself liable to arrest and pu1
ishment as trespasser.
AS far as l am able to learn, the
policy that has prevailed in the State
Land Office ut Carson City is to grant
all applications made for land regard
less Of its character. I know Of one
instance in the Tuscarora district
where mineral land was sold by the
State for agricultural land. TIT
land covered quartz mines on which
several thousand dollars worth OF Ia
Dor had been performed and on which
the owners at the time were prose
cutting work. One Of the mine own
ers wrote to the State Land Office
stating the case. The register in
structed him to write to the Land Of:
flee at Washington, D. G. Ihstruc-
tons came back to file an affidavit in
the Land Office at Eureka, which was
done. The Land office at Carson dis.
regarded the protest and sold the lan2
TO the applicant.
The miners certainly have some
rights that the Nevada State Land
Office is in honor bound to respect.
At first thought it would be best t.
write to the State Land Office and
state this case, but, after thinking
over my past experience with that
institution, arrived at the conclu-
sion that it would be labor lost and
decided to forward this communities
tiCn to the INDEPENDENT with the re-
quest that it be given a place in ite
colnmns and thus bring the matter
before the public.
During the present Summer quite
a number of valuable gold bearing
quartz lodges have been found in
Centennial district and prospecting
still goes on brsyely. Every few days

RESULT OF INVESTIGATION

After making a thorough inVestiga-
ton, THE TRIBUNE is forced to the
conclusion that Mr.. Frank Nesbitt,
Republican candidate for assessor, is a
man of strict integrity, sound judg-
ment and an unblemished record.
Everybody says that Mr.. Nesbitt is a
good man-an honest and trustworthy
citizen. That XII of a reputation
ought to elect him assessor of this
county. Besides he is an old timer,
helped to build the bridges and kill the
snakes; helped to subdue the wilderness
and assist the onward march of civiliz-
alton. THE TRIBUNE believes that
the voters of this county will honor
themselves in honOringa man OF Mr..
Nesbitt's quality. We have been loath
to saw a word in commentator of Mr..
Nesbitt, because we had no intimate
knowledge of the gentleman. But the
testimony of his neighbors and reliable
citizens all over the county convinced
us that he is the proper man for the
Assessors Office. The interests of the
taxpayers demand his election and it is
to be hoped that no mistake will be
made. When you go to your booth,
think a great many times and then be
wise and when you come to assessor
nut your cross after Mr.. Nesbitt's
name. Don't neglect this advice. 1t
is for your good as a citizen and a tax

EDITOR TRIBUNE,-Upon reading
DR.. Maxey's article in your issue of
October II, take pleasure, as one of
the board of trustees of the Soldiers
Home, in endorsing his conservative
statement and will say that the Doctor
was entirely indicated from the charge
of any immoral conduct whatever, the
witnesses named by him did that to the
entire satisfaction of the board, hence
the reason for the action of the board
in ignoring the same. Respectfully,

THE RIGHT MAN.


The Republicans of this county seem
to have been particularly happy in
making up their ticket this fall. In
every instance they seem to have Sc
lected the right man for the right place.
What could have been more approprl
ate than the nomination of Joseph
Wilson for sheriff. He is man of
natural executive ability; has the con-
fidence and esteem of everybody; IS
well known by every citizen in the
county and is exactly the right man.
He has filed the same Office before
with great credit and has the reputa-
ton of having made the best United
States marshal Idaho ever had. MT
Wilson is an honorable, upright man
who will conserve the peace and MAIN
tain the law upon upon all OCCASIONS
The TRIBUNE takes especial pleasure
IN recommending Mr.. Wilson to the
good graces of the voters OF this coun'
tv because we know that he is the
most competent man that can be found
for the position, to which he has been
named. Every lover of law and order
will certainly help to elect Joe wilson
