The late Coils P. Huntington, once,
while on the witness stand, proudly
boosted that his trail over the earth
could not be followed by the quarters
he had dropped. This part of his tes-
timony was believed to be true, as he
was testifying about railroad fares and
freights, and the assessed value of the
railroads controlled by him. But even
this Is now proved to be false. The
appraisers of his estate have shown in
list which financial people call the
"cat and dog list that he loaned
money to men and women that he
knew almost without stint, and that
ne dropped about $3,0O0,O0o worth of
quarters and halls with which to follow
his trail over the earth.

This country is helpless in the hands
of its servants. The people have voted,
resolved and petItioned for years that
our U. S. Senators be elected by direct
vote of the people, all to no purpose.
In this enlightened day and generation
political intrigue and jobbery receives
the highest honors. The bill for an
amendment to the constitution provid-
ing for the election of Senators by pop
ular vote is now in the Senate, the
House having passed the measure foI
the fourth time Any Senator who
votes against it should be retired to
private life.

For the Complexion.

The complexion always suffers from
biliousness or constipation. Unless
the bowels are kept open the impuri-
ties from the body appear in the form
of unsightly eruptions. DeWitt's
Little Early Risers keep the liver and
bowels in healthy condition and re-
move the cause of such troubles. G. f.
Hooper, Albany, Ga, says: 81 took
DeWitt's Little Early Risers for bill
iousness. They were just what
needed. l am feeling better now than

cAPABLY REPRESENTED.
Eastern Comment Regarding Our
Member of Congress.

The Senate has passed the irrigation
bill. What will become of the measure
in the house is an open question. 1t is
quite evident that Speaker Henderson
is not particularly favorable to the irri.
cation policy, Notwithstanding the fact
that both political parties committed
themselves to it in their last national
platforms. There is, however, a de-
cided determination upon the part of
western and northwestern men to
force the house to take action, and no
one has been more industrious, to-
wards this end than Representative
Francis G. Newlands, of Nevada.
In point of population, Nevada is
the smallest State in the union. but
there are few states represented in the
lower house of Congress by more
able, painstaking and conscientious
man than Mr. Newlands. IL has not
always been the largest states that
have had the ablest representative in
in Washington. For many years the
little state of Maine ranked them all,
when Reed, Dingley, Boutelle and Mil
liken filled the four seats assigned to
Maine in the lower house. Delaware
has sent men like Bayard, Salisbury
and Gray to the senate in the past.
Mr.. Newlands undoubtedly has a
personal interest in securing irrigation
legislation, for no State in the Union
will more greatly benefit from the in
PRODUCTION of national policy of water
storage and distribution than Nevada.
No member representing the arid and
semi-arid region has had such long
period of continued service as the Ne
vada member Nor is there any one
who has studied the subject in all it's
bearings in every country of the old
world which has attempted irrigation
to the extent that Mr.. Newlands has
carried his investigation.
Should the house finally adobt the
Senate bill or any similar measure,
success will be very largely due to the
efforts of the western men, who formed
committee early in the session and
selected Mr.. Newlands for secretary.
This committee succeeded in bringing
together the various opposing elements
and they have neglected no opportun-
ity to impress their views upon their
colleagues. So well have they carried
on their propaganda that there is to-
day clear majority in the house, ia
vorable to the policy of irrigation, if
only the speaker will permit the ques-
ton to come up for consideration.

President Schwab of the billion-dol-

Sigmund Zeisler, Chicago lawyer,
made 300, 900 word speech in Wilkes
barre, Pa. 1t occupied six hours a
day for four days, and was nearly half
as long as the Bible. There are 49,
746 words in the Bible. The speech
was in case about coal land lease,
and involved millions. DIR. Lecher
holds the worlds record. He is an
Austrian, and talked for twelve hours,
standing in one spot in the Austrian
parliament. The account says that
during the Grafton he ate nothing, but
drank three glasses of wine, four cups
of coffee, and a glass of beer.

Carson Letter.

EDITOR COURIER; Under the pro-
posed irrigation bill the reclamation
fund is to consist of money received
from the sale of public lands in the
arid States, less the expense of admin
istration and cost of survey. Last year
this fund amounted to 81, 729, 07O This
represents the gross receipts, from
which the expenses must be deducted.
The receipts from the sale of lands in
Nevada amounted to 1881. Oakla-
homa, where irrigation is not much
needed, would get for irrigation works
and water storage from its sales of land
S6l1,773. Nevada, where irrigation is
most needed, and which State needs
the greatest assistance, would not get
enough to pay for cost of survey alone.
While 1 admit that Representative
Newlands is doing all he can to help
Nevada, candor compels me to submit
to those who read my letters that the
irrigation bill, as at present drawn,
does not concern US, and that Nevada
is not in it. Of course, the measure,
rs a whole, is good for nearly all of the
arid States. The government sells the
land and devotes the net proceeds to
improve the same, and that is praise
worthy. But the government could
do great deal better The war in the
Philippines costs about 100000, 900 a
year. 1t will take about 40 years to
save that much from the sale of lands
for irrigation purposes. This is sug-
gested to the government as pointer,
to show it where it can make big
turn. More: the war is conducted for
the benefit of mongrel mixture of
semi-civilized peoples, and at the ex-
pense of christian blood and treasure.
Stop the war, save the lives of our
young men and build homes for them
In the arid States, where the climate is
the boss on earth, and in 40 years we
will have &C, 200, 600 prosperous inhabit-
ants within our own borders, and we
will be able to keep out the hordes of
Chinese, Japs and Malays. Again:
We will have free trade amongst 40,-
100000 more people, which is better
than the foreign market.

Correct. And this matter is peril
nently applicable to Nevada. Our legis-
lature in 1899 passed law providing
for the election of U. s. Senators in
accordance with the will of the people.
The names of candidates may be filed
with the Secretary of State and placed
on the official ballot, thus obtaining
an expression of the choice of the
people. The Republicans of Nevada
should trot out their candidate and let
the battle come before the people. 1t
would relieve the legislature of great
responsibility and set good example
for other States to follow. Bring forth

The Strange Story of a New Claiment.

Mr.. Harris is in litigation in the u. S.

mines. Mr.. Harris is not rich; he is
one Of our pioneer prospectors. and has
worked earnestly to develop the States
resources. He has been up against
money in trying to hold his rights and
his story is stranger than fiction.
More than twenty years in Esmer-
aida against corporate influence, has
had its bearing with living, but in spite
Of it he still fights. According to his
own story by law and right he has the
key to the Silver Star properties and
proposes to hold Them In the history
of Nevada we find 81 nilar cases to
those of Mr. Harris and refer to the
record. Where a prospector has used
the best years Of his life to further
mineral advantages he should reap a
reward and this will not be denied.
Mr.. Harris is entitled to everything
that should come to him through the
years of his toll.
Mr.. Harris was induced to come to
this country by the Blaires and has
used the best part Of his life here in
their interests Carson Appeal.
