There is bound to be lively con
test in the Legislature over the
representative for Storey county.
The last Legislature cut off one SEN
ator and two Assemblymen from
Storey county, reducing her repre-
representation to one Senator, who
Ia at present hold-over, and four
Assemblymen. To equalize matters,
Washoe county was given an addl-
tional Senator and Humboldt, Elko
and Lincoln counties each an addi-
tional Assemblyman. The constitu-
tionality of the act was questioned
and to test its validity friendly suit
was brought by the District Attor-
ney of Storey county before the Su-
preme Court, with the result that
the act was upheld. In spite OF the
fact, however, Storey has elected her
old quota and will send them to Car
son in February, while each OF the
other counties mentioned have cleo
ted an additional representative in
accordance with the law. The Leg
islature will have to decide which OF
the contestants are entitled to the
seats a decision which will no doubt
be entirely influenced by politics. As
the Storey county contestants are all
Republicans, and the men elected
by the other counties are all Demo
Gratis, there is very little question at
to how Democratic Legislature
will decide. White Pine News.

FAVORABLE COMMENT.

The Post-Intelligencer. of Seattle,
calls attention to the dwindlingpop-
ulation of Nevada and thinks it is
liable to still further decrease in the
coming decade. 1t is much mistaken
Nevada's population is liable to
greatly increase in the next few
wears. A great mineral belt runs
across Nevada, which is so far from
railroad facilities that it has not yet
explored. Cheap and quick COM
munication with it will soon be made
and then we shall see an activity
there which has not been seen since
the Comstock went into borasca.
Nevada is one Of the great mineral
States of the union, as will soon be
demonstrated. Meanwhile, don't
worry Salt Lake Tribune.
Nobody recognizes better, the force
Of the Tribune's commentabove than
those who have examined with any
care, the mineral districts which
may be penetrated by the proposed
line from Salt Lake to Los Angeles.
In this vicinity alone the Day mine,
with its 10000 tons of desirable
fuxing ore ready for shipment heads
the list, while dozen others, in a
smaller way, all however containing
large quantities of ore, averaging in
values higher than those which in
the main are reduced at the Salt
Lake smelters, stand ready to con-
tribute their share.
The new coal fields situated 30
miles northwest of town and near
one of the projected surveys which
the Clark line may follow, are open
ing up very encouragingly and are
near to several old time properties
containing large quantities of what
we hereabouts call low grade ore,
while recent visitor to the Groom
lead mines still further to the south
west, stated that the lead ores show
ing there are simply astonishing;the
faces of sulphide and gelena ores ex-
posed reminding him more forcibly
than anything he has seen west Of
them, of the big ore faces now shown
in the famous Silver King and Daley
West properties of Park City, Utah
The difficulty with all these how
ever, and with many other wei
known properties further north, IL
White Pine county, is lack of cheaE
transportation. A railroad through
these sections would pay from the
start onore tonnage, while if the Goa
fields develop as now hoped for,
smelling center, somewhere in thu
section, not second to Salt Lake it
self, is among probabilities, for thu
diversity of ores already known t'
exist is such that there would be ne
dead hauls on fuxing material, ,whil'
numerous surface showings, fol
years past abandoned and untouched
would be able to contribute to thu
general output.
"Don't worry" is good advice, ant
the man who intelligently "shooti
at long range, believing in the fu
ture prosperity of this section, vii

Who Has the Most To Do?


sian storey told by Count LeoTolstol
1t relates that Russian peasant and
his wife, after an earnest discussion
OF the question which OF them had
the more and harder work to do,
agreed to exchange tasks for day.
The woman went to the field toplow
and the man stayed at home to do
the housework.
Now mind, says the wife, as she
startled out, turn the cows and sheep
out to pasture at the right time, and
feed the little chickens, and look out
that they don't wander, and have the
dinner ready when l come back; mix
up some pancakes and fry them, and
don't forget to churn the butter.
But above all, don't forget to beat
the millet.
The peasant had so much trouble
in getting the cattle and sheep out
that it was late when he thought of
the chickens; and in order that the
little ones might not wonder, he tied
them all together by the legs with a
string, and them fastened the string
to the old hens leg.
He had noticed that, while his wife
was beating the millett, she often
needed her pastry at the same time.
So he went to work to do these
things together; and he had to shake
himself a great deal to do it, he saw
an excellent chance to get the butter
churned at the same time, by tying
the cream jar to his belt.
BY the time the millet is pounded.
he said, the butter will have come.
He had hardly begun this triple
task, when he heard the old hen
squawking and the chicken peeping
He started on run to see what was
the matter, but tripped on the edge
of Aagstone, fell, and broke the
cream-jar to pieces.
In the yard he found that a pro-
digious hawk had seized one of the
chickens and was flying off with it;
and as the chickens and their mother
were all tied on one string, they
hung together and the hawk flew
away with them all.
If his confession the peasant left
the yard gate open and the pigs
came in, tipped over the breadtray
and split the batter, which the an
imal then Immediately began to de-
YOUR. While the peasant was look
ing on in astonishment, another pig
came in and begin roofing among
the millet.
Then, while the peasant was clear,
ing things up as well as he could,
the fire went out. He had not sue
ceeded in rekindling it when his wife
enered the yard with the horse.
Why, she said, where are the
chickens-an the hen?
A hawk carried them off. | hac
tied them together, so they wound'n
wander away, and the hawk carried
off the whole lot.
Well, is dinner ready?
Dinner? How could l have din
ner when there isn't any fire?
"Did you churn the butter?
No; l was churning it, but | fel
and dropped the jar and broke it,an'
the dog ate up the cream.
But what is all this batter that
see on the floor?
Those miserable pigs did that!
Well, you have had hard time
said the wife. AS for me I've got tn
field plowed, and I'm bac
home early
Oh! yes, exclaimed the HUSBAND
bitterly, you've had only one sing
thing to do, while as for me, ~

Tho Democrat does not defend a
single one Of the Democratic officials
whose votes put these outrageous con-
tracts upon the people. They are in
all respects as much to blame as their
Republican colleagues, and the Demo
crat has so announced heretofore.
But the Dobson paper, night after
night since the awarding of the con
tracts, has been trying to place the
whole blame upon the Democratic Off
cials. And not content with this, II
has deliberately misstated the positions
Of Mcssrs. Paul anu McGarry.
The people need 10 suggestion from
the Democrat TO cnnplc them to get al

One Of the taxpayers who attended
the meeting Of East Market street
property owners last night remarked
that he hoped the action of the City
officials last Monday night would teach
the citizens of Akron the propriety Of
organizing permanent league to
scrutinize all local legislation affecting
their interests. This Is an excellent
suggestion and the very thing for
which the Democrat has been contend
ing ever since the Citizens Committee
was organized. Many Of the mistakes
that are made by City officials are due
to the Indifference of the people to
what their officials do.

Mr., Rowley described the mysterious

to highest bidders, the rapldlty with
which the matter was railroaded

tracts by the Board and contractors
Immediately upon the adjournment OF
Council last Monday night, and the
dictatorial movement of the Board In
opposition to the decisions of the City
Solicitor, relating TO his opinions of the
legality Of bids thrown out.
He referred to the following legal
bids:
Bid of the Gilsonitc Paving and
Roofing company, for sheet asphalt,
500, 900 less than the bid of the Barber
Asphalt company, 'and $4,000 less
than any bid for block asphalt. Bid
Of Gllsonitc company rejected, and bid
of Barber company, $25, 900 higher, ac'
cepted as legal Gllsonite bid rejected
because the bidder didn't state what
provisions he would make for pr
vatc repairs.
All computations were made from the
bids of The Barber Asphalt company
for sheet asphalt, and that OF j. j
MCGOWAN for block, but later Mr.. Nc
Gowan's bid was thrown out, b.
reason of his not having filed II sampl
of block asphalt.
At the first meeting held by tn
Board, the bid Of Mr.. MCGOWAN wa
considered legal and L. +. McCourt'
bid was rejected on defect in "tecl
nicality." The next movement was til
throwing out of McGowan's bid, an
, the accepting of McCourts.

Speaking further, Mr.. Wanamaker
said that the throwing of j. J. McGow-

ing filed sample Of block asphalt,
was inconsistent "The New Castle

for the contractors, and If McGowans $
bid Is deficient technically, owing to

public officials Of its own party, when
they do wrong, Is In a very poor posi-

The citizens Of Akron do not have to

Akron to find an unexcelled example
of this inconsistent policy.
