From DR.. Darling.

Probably no professional man is a
closer student of nature or more
conscientious worker in his field
than DR.. Darling, late of our State
University, later Professor of An
atomy of the University of Califor-
MIA. A graduate of the highest and
best institutions of learning, and an
enthusiast in his profession, he has
received recognition of his merit
wherever he has gone. His ability
was demonstrated in Nevada
through years of successful prac-
tice. He was surgeon in charge of
Theodore Winters great stock farm
in Washoe Valley, where FL Rio
Rey and other world-beaters of the
Hooker-Marion stock were toaled.
The following from his pen may be
of interest:
1t gives me pleasure to testify,
after thorough trial, that ! have

valuable remedy in sprains and
bruises on the domestic animals.

TIMBER ON PUBLIC DOMAIN.

The notices being served by
agents of the General land Office
in the mining regions requiring
payment for every stick of timber
cut by miners on their claims for
fuel and timbering is arousing just
indignation and if the tyranical
ruling of the Land Office is per
sisted in and upheld it will serious
ly interfere with the mining in
dustry.
The Salt Lake Tribune COM
ments as follows on the subject:
There is probably not an ore pro-
Queer in the State who has not at
one time or another innoCently
purchased timber for use in his
mines that was cut upon mineral
land, and, if the purchaser is re-
quired to reimburse the Govern
ment on an assumption that the
timbers are all "contraband" there
is scarce telling where the mischief
will end. The consumer has not
been in the habit of asking for an
abstract of title with each stick of
timber that was offered for sale,
and just how many sticks have
been unlawfully removed from
mining land even the land agent
must find it difficult to determine
What the consumer would like to
ascertain is, where was the agent
when all this timber-thieving was
going on, and if the innocent pur-
chaser is to be called upon to reim-
burse the government because the
agent failed to apprehend the ma
rauder and found his stolen wares.

c. P. HUNTINGTON, President of
the Southern Pacific Railway Com
pany, died last Monday night at
Pine Knot, in the Blue Mountains,
in New York, of heart disease.
His death was very sudden, as he
was apparently in the best of
health up to a short time before
the fatal stroke. Mrs. Huntington
was with her husband at the time
of his death.
Coils p Huntington was born
IN Harrington, Conn, October 22,
1921. He had some schooling in
the public schools, and at twelve
years of age went into the store of
P. w. Noble as an errand boy. At
fifteen he went to New York, pur-
chased stock of watch findings,
silverware, jewelry, etc, and start
ed out for himself, first in his ma
tive town, and later through the
South for six years. In I84o he
came to California by way of Pana-
ma, and the house of Huntington
& Hopkins was founded. About
1860 T. ]. Judah met Mr.. Hunting
ton and persuaded him to form a
syndicate to make a survey for an
overland railroad. Mr.. Hunting
ton was persuaded after much re-
sistance, and Governor Stanford
joined eagerly. Charles and E. B.
Croker came in. The history of
the building of the Central Pacific
by Mr.. Huntington and his associ-
ates and of his connection with the
road up to the time of his death
are we'll known to all.
1t is not likely that his death
will in anyway deter the proposed
changes on the c. P system, nor
are many changes looked for in
the heads of departments. So far
as the political policy of the COM
pany it will remain the same, look
ing to the success of the Repub-
lican party generally. 1t is under
stood that Mr.. Herrin, who tends
to these affairs, will have the same
power of supervision as heretofore.
In the death of Mr.. Huntington
this country loses one of the most
able financiers it ever knew.

ago ran for the Nebraska senate
and was elected on the republican
ticket. Much as he thought of
Bryan personally he opposed him po-
liticslly that year. Last night before
leaving for home he was seen by an
ARGUS reporter and defined his po-
sition this year.
Yes. 1 am supporting Bryan and
the democratic platform, he said,

four years. but the issues have
changed Then it was the silver qaes-
ton and now it is one of conquest and
the Capitalization of capital. favor
The expansion of trade and civilization,
but not an unrighteous and expensive
war of conquest in remote corners of
the earth. We should have trading
rights and a coaling station in the
Philippines. but there our demands
should end.
Mr.. Talbot said that existing laws
concerning trusts should be inforced
and. il necessary, others enacted that
would effectively protect the public
from their encroachments.
