HOW CARSON is KEPT BACK

The Treasury has ordered a new
coinage Of silver dollars and in a
short time the minis of Philadelphia,
San Francisco and New Orleans will
be running full blast on silver COR
ing.
Carson, however, is left out in the
cold because the Government has dis
covered that it cannot trust its bullion
10 the Carson Mint. The reopening
of the Mint would give employment to
about fifty or sixty men, but these
men now have to go without the en-
ployment because a few of them have
taken advantage of their OppOrtuni-
tunities to betray the trust imposed
upon them by the Government.
CuriOusly enough one would i'm
agine that the community would lend
every assistance to the Government in
detecting the thieves. but exactly the
reverse is true. Tremendous efforts
are being made to cover the tracks of
the men who robbed the Government.
The sO-called biggest people in town"
are on their side working day and
night, not to detect, but to condone
crime.
All the legal talent in the town has
been retained to hamper, retard and
defeat Justice. A member Of the Bar
Association who has the management
of the corruption fund in the case has
constantly violated his obligations as
a LAWYER by the lavish use of corrup-
ton money. After the first jury was
drawn he walked up and down the
streets in open defiance Of the Counts
order and the men he was seen with
most voted for acQuittal.
Over a month ago it developed in
the court room that he had sent money
to a witness to leave the country.
Since then an affidavit has been filed
charging him in terms with fresh
corruption, but the law does not reach
out for him, nor have any steps been
taken by the Bar Association Of this
State-who are fully cOgnizaGt of his
other criminal operations in law suits
to disbar him from legal practice
and to place it beyond his power tC
further disgrace an honorable profes.
sion.
The tremendous pull behind these
Mint cases grows mere apparent every
day, yet in justice to the Government
let it be noted that the men who ar
taking so much pains to down Unci,
Sam have not taken a single trick.

A short time ago the Gazette was
parading the assertion that our Sen
ators and Representatives in Congress
had no influence. Now it endeavors
to make it appear that Senator Jones,
one Of the eleven members who COM
pose the Senate Finance Committee,
is not only running the Committee,
which has a Republican majority,
but the whole Senate. OF a verify,
u Republican contemporary is, to
say the least, peculiar.
The Reed mem charge that McKin-
ley's friends have spent $4,000 in
in the South within the last few
months. They say that $4,000 was
spent in Louisiana alone to control
the delegation from that STATE.
The Mckinley men make counter
have flooded the South with money.

of the rival candidates Of each other a

gevin's knowledge of the mint steal.
The San Francisco Call publishes
the family arms of San Francisco
people," That they are a rank fraud
is suggested by the fact that there is
not a Goldfish rampant or ccuchant
among them. Take them as they
average, they are a disgusting and
shoddy lot, these American paraders
OF coats-of-arms. How could they be
otherwise when heraldry is in direct
antagonism to the republican spirit?
AS seen here, it is the tribute that
counterfeit Americanism pays to the
gewgaws of monarchy. 1t is a de-
sertion of a higher for a lower type
OF government because the latter is
clad in tinsel. 1t is an indication Of
q vulgar and common mind. The
San Franciscans may keep their coats
of-arms, although as American citi-
zens they should scorn to do it. The
ne~yer-painted escutcheon of a strong
manhood will do for a higher type of
men Fresno Republican.
The Reno Gazette is obliged to APP
oloeize for getting the Supreme Court
decisions mixed up, 1t was printed
in three parts and consequently got in
wrong. The Gazette does the work
for nothing because the State is too
moor TO nav. IF the State can't pay a
fair price for the work it has no kick
coming.

a Pieco of Old Tecumseh,s Skin.

A CHASTITY relic of early times in Ohio is
now preserved in tho collection of curiosi-
ties belonging TO Huff post, c. A. r., of
Lawronceburg, near Cincinnati. Tho onco
CORY relic referred to is n strip of skin cut
from tho back OF Tecumseh, the great In
dian chioftan. Tccumsch was killed III
tho baltic of tho Thames, Canada, on Oct
g. 1913. His death was unknown to tho
Americans for several days. Finally old
Indian Bill William Morris, tho Indian
fighter and early pionoor Of tho Ohio val
ley) discovered tho remains among othnrs
who were slain during tho engagement
Tho powder horn which Tecumseh priced
SO highly, and which had been made from
the horn of tho first buffalo tho Indian
had evor killed, was still around his neck
Morris took the horn for u momento, and
not being satisfied with that, turned tho
fallen chicftain over on his face and cut q
strip of skin several inches wide from the
warriors back. This strip Of human
leather was carefully and properly tanned,
and during tho remainder of old Indian
Bills life was used for n razor strop. In
dian Bill Morris died only u few years ago
i'll Switzerland county, Ind, at tho ago of
104. Just before no passed away he gave
the powder horn and strip of skin to his
son Henry. Horny Morris kept tho relics
until about six years ago, when ho pre-
sentcd them TO tho Huff post, G.. a. r., Of

Tho Peddler,s Calling.

Tho antiquity and univorsality Of the
peddler's calling havo been obScured by
namo given him in days whom that calling
had lost much of Its Importance, name
whose etymology, though still uncertain,
unduly specifics or bolittles it, Modern
philology dismissos with slnilo Johnson's
explanation of q contraction from "petty
doalor," or tho more picturesque deriva-
ton from pied pouldreux. and observes
that tho word came probably with Danes
or Norsomen into England and has it's
origin in the ped or panier in which fish
WIS brought to market in Norfolk, while
tho peddir (pcddler) of lowland Scotch is
equally of Scandinavian origin. Peddar
(spellcd pcoddare) is found III the general
sense Of II small hnwkcr In the Ancrcn
Riwlc--that is, before 1237-and pedler,
or pedlar, is probably formed from pedtlle,
an unrecorded diminutivo of ped. But
tho point to observe is that all these deri-
vntions, right or wrong, other unduly
narrow his calling or emphasize it's hard
ship and insigniflonncc. Ho is lowered
with name that unfairly deprooiates him
at tho outset.
Nor has the historian boon moro kind
to him; rs historian, indeed, it was gener-
ally out of his power. History has not
been slow to recognize tho Importance of
trade in tho development of nations anu
to show how tho peaceful operations or
commerce arc often the precursors of mil
itary conquest or mt least of political do
minion. But history docs not go back far
enough. When tho historian speaks of

LOST LITERATURE.
Elro and Nyntcr Have Destroyed Many OF
the Erst OF Books.


Tho fine literature absolutely lost IS
very considerable. OF classical literature
alone books could DO tillod with tho moro
names of works, never to mention tho
mutilatcd state OF many that survive. The
causes of loss nro fcw. Firo is tho most
common. Bon Jonson by tho fro in his
house lost an entire drama of tho life Of
Henry with notes and u number OF 9TH
or works. Tho fro of London WAS rospon-
sible for tho less of many valuable works
OF tho Elizabcthan period and of much
early English poetry. A scvcrcr blow to low
crs Of Anglo Saxon literature was tho burn
ing of tho Cottonian library in 1871, whom
vast Quantity of old manuscripts WIS
destroyed. In 1862, by fro in Lincoln's
Inn Fields u largo collection Of manu-
scripts and pamphlets, gathered with great
labor by Lord Chamberlain Somors, was
lost. About tho samo time Davies notes
on Cicero's "Do Onlcils'' worc lost by
fire in Strand, London.
The second great cause of loss is tho
ocean, whose "grocdy NAV" swallows all
kinds of treasure so remorsolessly. Early
In tho fifteenth century Guarino Veronese
was returning to ConstantinOplo with n
shipioad of classical manuscripts. Tho YES
sol was wrecked and tho treasures lost q
misfortune which turned tho scholars
hair white In q fow hours. Our own Spen-
scr suffered serious loss by shipwreck of q
servant crossing from ireland. Tho last
six books of tho "Faerio Queone," and a
number of TRANSACTIONS and poems, includ-
ing Dreams" 'Tho Court Of Cupid" and
Tho He'll of Lovers" wero thus consign-
ed to u watory grave. In 1000, OH the
death of Vincentio Pinelli, his library was
packed in three vessels bound for Naples.
Ono was attacked by pirates, who flung
out tho books and papers into tho sea and
along tho shore, some of tho lattor being
picked up by tho inhabitants and used to
stuff windows with. Toward the close of
last century servant of Warburton came
across unique mass of manuscript plays,
which sho used up in lighting fires and
making pho crust frills. And everybody
remembers now q domestic of John Stuart
Mill consigned to the flames part of Car
lyle's French Revolution. The horror
of Mill ut tho loss, and tho "agony'' of
Carlyle in rewriting the work, are now
matters of history.
A very curious loss was occasioncd in
Italy in the fourteenth century when Raj
monde Soranzo loaned tho manuscript of
Cicero's "Do Gloria" to friend, who
pawned it, and died before it's hiding place

A Costly Bit of Experience.

West of the Mississippi all tbe big rail.
roads do an immense amount OF ndvortis-

tempt was made on u certain western line
to reduce advertising expenses, and for
about two months they managed to keep
their notices out of the papers, but when
