NEW YORK. March 22.-The strength
Of the stock market in the last week or
ten days has been due to a fairly con-
siderable revival of interest by Western.
and particularly by Chicago, operators.
1t is understood that dealings for this
account recently have been upon a larger
scale than at any time within the last six
months.
This contingent has been largely re-
srons:ble. among other issues. for the
Improvement in the so-called granger
STOCKS, particularly Rock Island and St.
Paul. Throughout the great West and
Northwest attention at this time of the
year naturally is closely turned upon the
crop prospects. upon which the prosper
ity Of the sections referred to. as well as
the whole country, SO largely depends.

George Schaub, q well known Ger
MAJ citizen of New Lebanon, Ohio, is
a constant reader of the Dayton
Volkszeitung. He knows that this
paper aims to advertise only the best
in its columns, and when he saw Cham
berlain's Pain Balm advertised there
in for lame back, he did not hesitate
in buying a bottle Of it fer his wife,
who for eight weeks had suffered with
the most terrible pains in her back
and could get no relief. He says:
"After using the Pain Balm for a few
days my wife said to me, 4 feel as
though born anew, and before using
the entire contents of the bottle the an
bearable pains had entirely vanished
and she could again take up her house
hold duties" lie is very thankful and
hopes that all suffering likewise will
hear of her wonderful recovery. This
valuable liniment is for sale by all
druggists and dealers in medicine.

State Press Association.

For the future welfare and advance
ment of the press Of Nevada a State
Press Association sh, .uld be organized at
once. BY the formation of such an or
ganization every paper in the State will
be made far more prosperous. Califor-
nia has a State Press Association that
has been the making of its newspapers.
There is valuable information to be gain
ed and an increase in earnings to news
paper men in Nevada if they will ANAL
gamate and upbuild their own business.
We would like to hear from our brother
craft on the subject.-Bonanza.
If we remember we'll there was an As
ISOLATION organized, by nearly all OF the
newspapers in this State some four or
five years ago and at that time much in
terest was taken in the Association by
the different papers. For the past three
years we have not heard anything about
the Nevada Press Association. 1t no
doubt wants to be aroused from its quiet
slumber aud we voice the sentiment of
the Bonanza and believe hat the Press
of Nevada should get together at once
and reorganize the State Press Associa-
ton.

Convicted of MansIanghter.

Judge Jones sentenced Sylvester Aurt-
enchea Monday morning I'd ten years in
the State Prison for the killing of Chas.
Leon on the 18th of May, 1902, at the
Bailey goat ranch on Mill Greek. A mo-
ton for a new trial WAS overruled and
defendants attorney sas given 30 day rs
more in addition to the 10 days allowed
by the Law, ia which to file bill Of excep-
tions.
The prisoner was remanded 10 the care
of the Sheriff.
The testimony on the above case hav-
ing all been submitted Saturday fore
noon, District Attorney Maestretti COM
mepced his argument at 80 o'clock and
spoke for several hours. lie was follow
ed by Mr.. Dennis and at lis close a re-
cess was taken until 7 o'clock, at which
time MIR. Maestretti commenced his
closing argument, speaking for a short
time. The Judge then gave his instruct
ions to the jury ana at 10 o'clock tbs
case was given to the jury. At 3 o'clock
Sunday morning they arrived at a de-
cision, and Court was opened. The fore
man announced that the jury had found
the defendant, Aurtenchea, guilty of
manslaughter. The Judge ordered the
prisoner to appear for sentence Monday
morning and discharged the jury.
A number OF ballots were required be-
fore a decision was reached, each ballot
being divided, some for acquittal; man
slaughter and murder in the second de-
gree. A verdict was reached or a COM
prise of manslaughter.
The prisoner is 5ut 10 years Of age,
and his youth found sympathy with
many spectators in Court, and no doubt,
with some OF the jury eveille.

EUREKA TO T0N0PAH.
Proposed Extension of the E. & p. Rail
way-Smelters May be Erected at
Hot Creek.

Another proposition looking toward
the best method of reducing the rich
ores of Tonopah district is being con
sidered by the Tonopah Company, which,
if consummated, means a great deal for
Eastern Nevada. The plan, as we un-
derstand it, is to extend the Eureka &
Palisade railroad from Eureka. via Hot
Creek, Nye county, to Tonorah.
The conclusion has been reached that
the best method Of obtaining the true
values contained in the Tonopah ores is
by the smelling process. These ores are
30 rebellious that up to the present time
the smelling companies in different
parts Of the country have only been able
to accept a limited amount of the Tono-
pah ores, for the reason that they were
unable to secure the fuxes necessary to
reduce this class of ore.
1t ia well known that the mines of Eu-
reka, Hamilton and Typo can furnish the
necessary lpxing ores to work Touopah's
high. grade ores, but it is also known
that most of these fluxing ores are
low grade. and cheap transportation
will be necessary for their shipment to a
smelling plant.
According to the plan that is now un-
der consideration a smelling plant is to
be erected at the most suitable point be-
tween Eureka and Tonopah. On ac-
count of the water and timber to be OBJ
tanned at Hot Creek about 80 miles south
of Eureka. it is probable that this loca-
ton will be decided upon for the pro-
posed works.
1t is thought that the route of the
proposed road from Eureka to Tonopah
will not exceed a distance of over $50
miles, and that the country through
which it would be built would not ne
cessitate n great expenditure Of capital
in construction.
Practical engineers will arrive from
the East shortly to make a thorough in-
vestigation of the feasibility of erecting
a smelling plant in Nevada to reduce the
rich Tonopah ores.-Eureka Sentinel.

Trib in the High Sierras.

The day we started on our trip
across the mountains, from Carson,
Nevada, while wheeling down the
grade toward Lake Tahoe, / went over
a high embankment, falling and bad
ly spraining and bruising my left knee.
When We reached Hobart, the instep
OF Mrs Gordon's right foot was also
much weakened by the severe exertion
necessary ON the mountain road. 1t
seemed ms if we could go no further.
There was just one bottle Of the lini-
ment, Trib in the place. We bought
it and applied it thoroughly that
night aud the next morning, and We're
thus enabled to proceed easily and
without delay. Continuing its use, in
three days we reached our destination,
both knee and instep completely cured
and free from that muscular stiffness
and soreness which toe often mars
an outing. Trib is the greatest thing
on earth where a liniment is needed.

should be adequately punished. If
she merely protected the virtue of her

MR.. WASHINGTON NOT A POLITICIAN,

The attempt on the part of a few
journals to misrepresent
Booker L. W ashington will result only
in failure. The "Wizard" is too well
understood by the right kind of people
to injured by marplOts and pigmies-
No one seriously believes that Mr..
Washington assumes to be the "dis'
penser of patronage" under the admin
istration, or that he assumes to be a
political dictator.
Mr.. Washington is an American
citizen. AS such he takes a natural in
terest in the trend of politics, but only
so far as it affects the phase of work to
which he is devotiug his life and ener:
gies. His aim is ts uplift the masses of
his people and his activity in politics
touches only those points which make
for liberal laws, greater generosity
of sentiment. personal tolerance, and
the selection of administrators who
can be relied upon to enforce the law
impartially. Can any reasonable man
object to this broad policy? Is not such
activity the bOunden duty of an edu'
Gator and propagandist whose work is
cenLered in a region that hampers him
by restrictive customs and reactionary
legislation
The fact that MIR. Roosevelt respects
Mr.. Washington's advice does not
make the Tuskeegian politician or a
dictator. 1t is because the President re-
CARDS Mr.. Washington above Office
seeking, above the tawning fattery of
the supplicant for favors, that he asks
his counsel upon matters affecting the
race and the South. 1t is because Mr..
Washi Igton is a iofty'minded states
man and holds aloof from political chi
canery and selfish ambition that Presi'
dent Roosevelt turns to him when he
wishes to know the truth.
Mr.. Washington IS wise to refrain
from explaining, denying or conciliat
ing. He attends to his knitting" 30 tC

MRS DUNBAR'S CASE.

The decision of the police authori'
ties relative to the assault on Mrs.
Paul Laurence Dunbar at the Capitol
on the day President Mckinley s body
lay in state, is little short of an out.
rage. The burly officer is given the
benefit of slender doubt and is per.
mitted to retain his place despite direct
evidence of brutality toward gracious
woman of our race. Does any one be-
lieve that had a Negro officer been
charged with assaulting white wo'
man, that any doubt of his guilt would
have arisen In the minds of the Com
missioners? Not by jugfull. He would
have been dismissed instanter. Mrs.
Dunbar, however, should have pushed
her charges to the bitter end, and could
have gone to the police court for re-
