REJECTED THE PETITION.
Fire Company Defeats a Proposition for Aux.
Hilary Power Line.


At a regular meeting Of Winnemucca
Hose Company No. / last night a petition.
signed by thirty-one property owners of
Winnemucca, was presented asking the
company to appropriate sufficient money
to purchase the necessary wire for an
auxiliary line from the electric light com.
pany's power house to the pumping plant
on the river.
The petition stated that the water sup
ply for fire purposes during the summer
months is limited to the pumping station.
The motive power for conveying and dis.
tributing the water consists of a pumn
connected with the electric light plant bv
a line following Bridge street, and stated
that in case of fire on Bridge street the
electric connection would be in danger OF
destruction and the town would be cut OF
from water and would be defenseless.
furnish the necessary wire for an auxil-
iary line from the power house to the
pumping station, to be used In an emer'
gency. The water company agreed to fur
/ nish the necessary poles. install the wire
and make the necessary connection. This
line was to be the property of the fire de-
nartment and not be used for any other
than for fire purposes.
Considerable discussion was occasioned
by a motion to reject the petition. 1t was
set forth that the hose company had no
authority to entertain the petition, and
that the Board Of Commissioners, acting
as a Town Board. were the proper author.
tiles to act on the matter should 1t be
deemed by the property holders that such
an auxiliary line is necessary for protec
ton in case OF fire.
1t is estimated by some that the wire
necessary for this line would cost In the
neighborhood of $500. Other estimates,
however, place 1t at $500. 1t was
stated at the meeting last night that
the hose company, even IL IL had the
authority, was not financially able at the
present time to expend that much money
for that purpose, as there was barely suf-
fcient funds in the treasury to meet the
current expenses this year.
The motion ~ raiaot the ,afftlop anallv
prevailed.
1t is now thought probable that another
petition will be presented to the Board of
Commissioners TO Increase the fire tax for
ne purpose Of raising the money to buy
the wire for the proposed auxiliary power
line.

MUST DO LONG TIME.
E. T. Blew Pleads Guilty and Is
-
Sentenced to Seven and
Half Years.
With His Partner, He Was Accused
of Forging a Bill of
Lading.


Edwin T. Blew was sentenced to seven
and one-half years in the state peniten-
tiary, this morning for the crime of for
gerry in the second degree. Blew appeared
before Judge Brooks at 10 o'clock and
formally entered a plea Of guilty to the
indictment against him. He was repre-
scented by Jay w. Crane and Frank M.
Nye both Of whom petitioned the court to
exercise clemency. Mrs. Blew and sister
of the prisoner were in the court room.
Questioned by the court, Blew said he
was 26 years old and had lived in Mime
apolis sixteen years. He had never be-
fore been convicted Of any crime, was not
an habitual drinker and never gambled.
Ills offense was the forging of a bill Of
lad1ng by which he was able to secure an
advance from local bank.
Thomas F. Armstrong, Blew's business
partner, who was indicted with him, was
In court but will not plead until to-mor-
row morning. 1t Is thought that Armstrong
also will plead guilty. He Is said to have
confessed his guilt to the county attorney,
and 1t Is not likely that he will decide to
stand trial. although the stiff sentence
imposed upon his business associate can
not but prove a powerful incentive to that
line of action.
When Blew stepped to the bar this
morning it was obvious that he was suf-
fering acutely. The muscles of his entire
body twitched nervously, and his legs
shook so that he could not stand still
When questioned by Judge Brooks he
broke down completely and wept. His
attorneys asked for a reformatory sem
tence, but this the court would not grant.

AUT0.BIKE AS HORSE
Sunnyside Enjoys the Novel Spec
tacle of an Auto Cyle Pull
ing a Runabout.
Russell Dibble, Chauffeur, Rode Be-
tween the Shafts and Managed L.
the Novel Ride.

Surely the days Of the horse are num-
bered. The automobile, to large extent
has replaced the faithful equus In the
larger cities, as both a passenger and a
freight carrier. But the latest is to hitch
a motor cycle between the shafts of a
runabout. Russell Dibble, a prominent
young society man of Minneapolis is the
originator of the new fad One evening
recently, while calling upon some friends
in Sunnyside, he volunteered to give the
party novel ride. A runabout was
brought out from the stable, and Mr.. Dbl
BILE strapped a bar across the front OF
the shafts and established himself and
his motor cycle in the position usually oc-
cupied by the horse.
The remainder of the party occupied
seats in the buggy, and the combination
mechanical-hun steed drew the car
riage around the streets in Sunnyside at a
rapid ate, to the great awe and admira-
ton of the residents Of that part of the
city.
The passengers voted the new means of
locomotion q great Improvement upon the
horse. ut is much faster" said one, land
you are never worried for fear the horse
will run away. Then you don't have to
watch out for other teams, or bother
about turning. All you have to do is to
tell the horse where you want to go and
he does the rest. And Mr.. Dibble makes
such a nice, gentle horse and never SHES
at the street cars

GOOD FOR FIFTY YEARS
Jim Griffin, a Minneapolitan, Says
MONIES Prospects Are Better
Than Ever.
Special to The Journal.

Special to The Journal
Tacoma, Wash, Oct 29.-J. w. Griffin,
a prominent Nome operator, is In the city,
having come out from the Alaskan city
on the Centennial.
1.-THE prospects at Nome" said he, ARE
better than ever before. The output next
year will be much larger than this sea-
sons.
People are getting to work on the
mines in big way. It is destined to be
great hydraulic camp. bitches are being
constructed that will give plenty of water
for this purpose. The great body OF the
ground is low grade and medium grade
gravel-that is, for northern mines. In the
states it would be high grade gravel. But
it is not the rich pay dirt that Is found
near Dawson. If worked with hydraulics
it will pay tremendously.
1.-The whole tundra is full of gold and,
with the hydraulics, can be made to pay
1t Is simply the old beach that has risen
from the water during the course OF CEN
t1lries Everyone remembers how rich
the Nome beach was when first worked.
The tundra Is full Of gold clear back to
the mountains.
Nome is good for fifty years yet New
claims may be discovered at any time.
j. W. Kelly, a capitalist from the Penn
sylvania oil fields, has an oil we'll outfit
UP there that Is being used to good ad-
vantage in prospecting for gold.
Then, too, there will be quartz found
there some time. In fact, Mr.. Lane now
has mine on the Solomon river, twenty
miles from the ocean, and has sent out
for quartz mill. Quartz mining may
some time be large part Of the gold oper-
ations at Nome
AS a result Of the notorious Noyes ad-
ministration, a large part Of Mr.. Griffin 8
property is still in litigation. He had an
encounter with claim jumpers that was
more than usually exciting. Going out to
his property he found two men who stood
talking to him with six-shooters in either
hand. OF at one side was another man
with a cooked Winchester.
The jumpers remained on the land un-
til committee Of vigilantes one night
called on them and drove them off.
Mr. Griffin, although he was not with
the party, was afterward arrested as the
r1ngleader. Since that time he has been
sued for $4,000 damages by one Of the
jumpers who was shot in the leg during
the melee.
