the strikers are in good shape. Con-

would not be at all surprising should
one or two Of the mines in this section

ExoRBITANr CHARGES.

Wells, Fargo Express Company Worse
Than the Trusts.
There is one concern on earth that
can lay ID all over the biggest trust that
was ever formed, and get it's hands into
as many pockets in every community
as the beef combine or any other set Of
highwaymen. This particular concern
is Wells, Fargo & 90. Their rates are
beyond comparison in the business
world when il comes to profits for
them.
There is hardly a citizen in this city
or State that has not felt the weight Of
their hand, and needless to say every
citizen, man or woman. has raised .
complaint against the e1orbitsnt
charges that are showed onto them.
One cannot look around that he does
not find an individual who has word
of condemnation to say regarding the
rates that this company demands and
gets from the public purse. It's
cussed outrage, and there should be
some way formed at the coming meet
ing of the Legislature to make this
band of highwsymen disgorge some of
the profits that they collect from the
people.
An example was made manifest yes
terdsy. The writer received package
of paper from Stockton that is worth
fifty cents, and the express company
taxed him one dollar to bring it 300
miles. This is not the only case. A few
weeks ago on a small package of paper
that cost but thirty cents the express
charges were the same old dollar.
When one gets a package from the
East he might as we'll give the come
pany q mortgage on his farm or else
apply to the Commissioners for ticket
to the poor farm.
When any firm or corporation can
exercise this power over the dollars of
the people it is time for the Legisla-
ture to do something. There should
be law passed that would assess the
company on the amount of business
done in the town, and the books should
be gone over about twice day in order
to get the sum added up at night.
The people have been raising howl
at the railroads for generations past,
but they are every day, modest gentle-
men by the side of the pack of bunko
men and highway road agents that goes
under the firm and title of Wells, Fargo
& Co.-Carson Appeal.

Henry watterson Describes Americas

Henry Watterson in the Courier

on the New York "4O0," referring to
them again as STOCK of unclean
birds" The editorial occupies two
columns of space and says in part:
1.-THE term Smart Set was adopted
bys bad society in Europe to save itself
from q more odious description. The
distinguishing trait of the smart set is
its moral abandonment. 1t makes a
business of defying and overlapping
conventional restraints upon its pleas

a rule and either rich in fact or getting
money how it may, ii sets itself above

women are equally depraved with its
men. They know all the dirt the men
know. They talk freely with the men
OF things forbidden the decent and the
virtuous-that passing freely which
was once excluded as unclean by
gentlemen from the smoking room.
They read the worst French fiction.
They see the worst French plays. The
very question of sex becomes inter-
changeable and sometimes it is the
sissy earl and always the horsey girl
who kick out OF the traces and drag the
set through the mire.
"The women of this smart set no
longer pretend to recognize virtue even
as feminine accomplishment. limo
cence is badge of delinquency. a sign
OF the crude and raw, aud deformity

Considerable speculation has been

1t is probably true that the bonanza

the fact will have to be determined by
the courts and it will probably be a

OF Tonopah will vote in Nye county.
They will surely do so this year, and
while the matter might possibly be

Contradictory Evidence i'm a Divorce
of Bridge Col
Iapse-Court Cases.

The wrath of Judge feathers was aroused
yesterday during the hearing Of a divorce
case in Superior Court. Room 2. The case,
that of Lulu V. Baase against John F.
Baase, furnished details unusually unsav-
DRY, and both the plaintiff and the defend
ant wed with each other in charges and
counter charges of infdelity and unfaithful-
ness. Baase claimed that on one occasion
he heard tina his wife contemplated a trip
to a resort at Brighton Beach with an
other man, and that in the guise Of a hack
driver he presented himself to take the
couple there.
After they had reached the resort, Baase
said, he threw aside his disguise, includ-
ing a heavy black beard, and confronted
his wife and her companion. A scene fol-
lowed, which was stormy. Other charges
preferred by the husband were of a nature
absolutely unprintable. On her part Mrs.
Base denied everything charged against
her and swore to the falsity of Bases al
legations. Judge feathers listened care
fully and was convinced that on one side
or the other there existed a case of rank
perjury. He refused to settle the case,
but gave the stenographer orders TO take
the names of all the witnesses in the case
and to prepare a transcript of the evidence
preparatory TO taking the matter before
the grand jury. II consider the evidence
of perjury too serious to be overlooked, a"
