The Foley Estate.

The three-cornered fight over the
Foley estate is in progress before Judge
Mack and a jury in the District Court,
The petitioner, Mrs. Smith, made a
prima facia case and then rested. 0. j.
Smith and Mis-. Smith we're on the stand
and volumes of documentary evidence
was introduced. This afternoon the
Court is engaged in hearing the Eastern
heirs story, after which the admins
traitor of the deceased Hartley child will
have a day at bar.
The eastern heirs are presenting their
side OF the controversy, principally
documentary evidences, and attorney
Baker argued the law points and argued
them well. In giving a history of the
case this afternoon he presented it so
clearly that he ratified the attorneys for
Mrs. Smith, and they all hitched a rope
around Bakers neck and led him a fast
mile, SO to speak, but he seemed to be
so strongly entrenched that they could
not make him break, and he tripped,
figuratively speaking, and made a good
many points.-Gazette.

The Masonic Banquet.

The banquet given to the members #
the Masonic Grand Lod e Tuesday night
at the Depot Hotel was a decided snc-
cess in point OF numbers, excellence OF
the speeches, beauty and greece of the
la3its and the general good feeling that
prevailed. After some time spent IN
slowing away the eatahles and drink
ables, MIR. j. L. Keyser, master of cere-
monies, raped for order, and in a few
pleasant remarks extended q hearty
welcome to The visitors. At the conclu-
Strether, Grand Master, who responded
to the words OF welcome. At the close
Of his remarks Trenmor Coffin, Grand
Orator, responded to calls, and in a neat
speech cleveily pulled the wool over the
eyee OF the ladies present. His remarks
were witty and pleased everybody. Gov
ernor Sadler and Joe Miller followed in
words OF praise to the people ef Eastern
Nevada, especially the ladies. W. D..
Jones, of Austin, was then called on,
and after a few witty remarks persisted
in singing, "In the Days When | Was
Hard Up" Although the nightingale
IRON the base of Mount Prometheus
can't sing a little bit, his song brought
down the house and furnished material
for many a witty thrust by the speakers
who followed. He was followed by G..
IL. Galusha, who spoke of the excellence
of the ladies OF the eastern part of the
State of Nevada. Rev. Bellam of Wads-
worth then responded to calls and enter
tanned the audience with thrusts at the
speakers who had preceded him. Mr..
Percy, Matt Kyle and Albert Lackey
followed in short speeches. Judge MUIR
ply al called on and spoke at some
length on the history OF Masonry and
and the. work OF the Order of the East
ern Star. G. N. Noteware, Grand Sec
rotary, followed in y neat speech. This
concluded the experimenting, and the
master of ceremonies in a few well
chosen remarks dismissed the crowd.
The banquet will be remembered by all
present as a pleasant milestone in the
journey OF Neutrality-suspicious..

TELLING PARTY SECRETS

In another column will be found an
interesting article from the Charleston
Gazette concerning a certain betrayal
of at least one Republican party secret
bv Mr.. Speaker Hanen in the heat Of
debate on taxation in the Constitutional
Commission.
OF course. it is a notorious fact that
the trusts made up the Republican
campaign fund in this State last year,
and that the Republican committee
had its pockets we'll lined with trust
Doodle. but it has remained for Speaker
Hanen Of the Legislature and the Con-
srirutional Commission to furnish a
glimpse into the details of the fraud
by which the people were cheated of
their rights by the boodlers and the
State turned over to the party Of cor
ruption and monopoly.
To was in the heat OF debate, as we
have said. that Speaker Hanen stated
that the Tobacco Trust had contrib
uted large sum of money TO the West
Virginia Republican campaign fund
last year upon condition that the party,
if successful. would repeal the tax on
cigarettes. but having made the admis-
sion Mr.. Hanen would not be whistled
or coughed or laughed down and he
reiterated his statement TO his squirm-
ing party associates and declared he
meant what he said and knew what he
was talking about.
No one will doubt Mr.. Hanen's word
or dispute the entire truth of his
statement concerning this rotten bar
gain between the Tobacco Trust and
the Republican leaders in this State.
The corrupt deal was carried out on
both sides and the legislation prom
ised the trust was sneaked through
the last session under a misleading
title. These are facts and there should
be no time lost upon the reassembling
of the Legislature IN making Jheul Ine
basis Of a searching inquiry and inves-
tigation. The laws of the State have
been grossly and deliberately outraged
and the persons guilty of the crime
should be brought to the bar of justice
and punished. This is demanded in
the name of the people and the demand
cannot be ignored This infamous con-
spiracy between the Tobacco Trust and
the Republican leaders should be laid
bare to the knife of investigation and
Justice. the Legislature purged Of its
rottenness and the corruptionists OF
the Republican party. who have cheat
ed and defrauded the people Of the
State. pinoried in their infamy.

MORE nYr\orIc NONSENSE.

We have recently been furnished two
fresh examples in the use of hypnotism,
which are interesting if not instructive.
In a southern court a well-known ac-
tor has been awarded damages for in
iuries sustained in a railway wreck.
His wife. also an actress, received adj
ditional compensation for her injuries,
and she is the heroine of the hypnotic
incident. The railway attorneys fought
vigorously for their client, and the
dramatic climax of the defense came
when one of these legal gentlemen
arose and vehemently claimed that the
actress had hypnotized the leading wit
ness for the plaintiffs. a local medical
expert Perhaps little later on he
may have concluded that this clever
and attractive lady had also hypno-
tized the jury, for that intelligent body
promptly awarded her a very comfort
able sum. The possibilities of this
mysterious power, however, were evil
IDENTIFY not fully proved, for there is no
evidence TO show that either the judge
or the opposing attorneys were affected
by il. In fact. there is really nothing be-
yond the attorneys word to prove that
the pulling influence Of which he so
complained was anything more than
the ordinary power of fascination pos
sessed by a young and pretty woman.
The other case is reported from Mil
waukee. The city officials of that town
bravely refused to grant an exhibition
license to a hypnotist, Notwithstanding
the fact that he had threatened to
hypnotic the mayor and the entire city
council If his request were not granted.
In the very face of this threat,
threat which once executed might
place the very destinies of the city in
the hands Of a revengeful Snowman,
the city clerk calmly withheld the
license. and il is claimed that up TO
date no unusual results have been no

SENATOR SMITH
Makes Personal Statement Denying
Charges That He Specialized in
Sugar Stocks.

Washington, June 1.-Senator Smith,
of New Jersey. made a brief personal
statement in the Senate this afternoon
in reply to the newspaper charge re-
peated in the Senate by Senator Till
man that he (Smith) had speculated
in sugar stock. He said Mr.. Presl-
dent. during my absence from the Sen
ate the other day l ascertain from the
record that in a very remarkable de-
liverance by the Senator from South
Carolina (Mr. Tillman) he became spon-
sor for newspaper clipping in which
nv name was mentioned. in connection
with the sugar schedule in the pending
tariff bill
1t is only necessary for me to say
that the statement in the newspaper
clipping in question is absolutely and
unoualifiedly untrue. | have not dur
ing this session of Congress bought or
sold. directly or indirectly, a single
share of sugar stock, nor at any time
prior TO this when any legislation af-
fecting the value of sugar or sugar stock
was pending
