THB ST. LOUIS FAIR.
Southern Pacific Railroad VIII
Make an Exhibit

President E. H. Hartman of the
Southern Pacific Railroad Company
has made an appropriation for an ex-
hibit at the st. Louis Exposition and
has placed w H. Mills in charge of
the funds. The display will cover all
the States and territories traversed by
the Hartman lines, but 1t Is announced
that "by reason OF the striking forestry
and horticulture OF California the chief
part OF the exhibit will be devoted to
that State. San Francisco's position
In the commerce Of the world will be
illustrated by series of moving pic
lures, raised maps globes, and in other
graphic ways,
The exhibit will be the largest ever
attempted by the Southern Pacific,
and special pains viii be taken to make
it attractive and scenic. OF the four
teen departments into which the ex-
hibits will be divided at the fair, the
road will make displays in half as fol-
lOnSs A4hhNooiohf VI oh1 l'ti bdblOllf az
riculture, horticulture, forestry, mines
and metallurgy, and fish and game
The exhibits in forestry, horticulture,
mines and agriculture will be especially
complete, and will doubtless compare
favorably with the displays from any
part OF the world.
Thus, 1t will be seen, Nevada is given
notice at the outset that If she wants
any advertising at st. Louis she must
make her own exhibit Ia such n way
that 1t win not be obscured by the
prominence given to California.
This State should make distinctly
mineral exhibit, and If proper attention
is given TO its arrangement, that dis.
play, for richness and variety, will far
surpass any other State In the Union.
The big Exposition win open on April
l. 1908 and it is to be hoped the nexi
Legislature win recognize the impor,
lance OF having good display OF Neva
da's ores and minerals on exhibition.

ANOTHER EXPERT GOBS.
Prof. TreadweIl's Representative
Left Yesterday for the
Railroad.

Ed Farley, who for more than -four
months past has represented the inter-
ests OF Prof. Geo. A. Treadwell and his
associates in this camp, left yesterday
morning for the railroad in order that
be may be In direct communication
with his principals.
As to his plans for the future Mr..
Farley had no in formation to give out,
but it is surmised that his departure at
this time is for the purpose OF receiv-
fng private instructions regarding the
taking up of few groups of claims
with which he Is known to be very
favorably impressed.
Before leaving Mr.. Farley made the
statement that it is possible he may re-
turn within a week or ten days and
this gives rise to the supposition that
he has simply gone to the railroad in
order to be in telegraphic commnnica-
tion with his principals, the idea being
prevalent that the walls along the tele-
phone line have ears and that their
sense of hearing is abnormally acute.
1t is safe to say that the Treadwell
people will make an offer for few
Ely properties within few days, and
II they secure them it will add greatly
to this years mining activity in this
camp.

story, however. Mr.. Cleveland says
OF Tonopah that while he has not ex-
amined It personally he is permitted to
say, upon tho authority of acquaint'
anoes who have, that, as n youngster,
it Is all and perhaps moro than has
been claimed for it, 1t Is not the only
one, however, and he expects to see q

AFTER GOLD PROPERTIES
Capitalists in Various Sec tions
of the East Looking to Ely
for Investment.
The Coming Season Promises to
See Many Deals in Mining Prop
critics consummated.
lndica tions That Small compa-
nies Will Take up Several
Meritorious Groups.

Within the past few days the NEWS
has received inquiries from three diff
ferent parties in the East asking for in
formation egarding the opportunity
for securing gold properties in the vi
cinity of Ely, and other parties here al
SO have received letters of similar
nature.
Early last Fall we received inquiries
from some OF these same people and
furnished them all the information re-
quired, but when everything appeared
satisfactory and it was supposed their
representatives would be here to ex-
anime the properties, they finally de-
cided 1t was too late in the season to
proceed further. The fact that they
are again resuming negotiations for
properties in this camp is pretty good
evidence that the samples and descrip-
tions sent them proved entirely salts
factory, and the indications are that
the present season will see q number
OF sales of mining claims to parties who
desire to work them for the values they
contain.
The NEWS will gladly furnish infor-
nation regarding any claim in the
county to any party who may seek it
in good faith and all letters concerning
the mining industry will be answered
fully and promptly.

ACROSS THE VALLEY.
Rich Gold aid Lead Properties
Now Beinc Worked There.

The old Peacock mine, which years
ago produ ceG some exceedingly rich
ore, is again being worked, under the
name of the Golden Wave and Messrs.
bennett and Boyd have no difficulty
in panning out the pure yellow metal
from the ore in sight.
The extensions OF this valuable prop
erty have also been recently taken up
and Ed Watkins who came from there
yesterday, brought some fine looking
quartz from. the properties. He
says there are two well defined
lodges there the formation being
quartzite, and he is confident there is
a valuable mine on this site.
Other parties have located claims
further to the south, which are said to
be showing up exceedingly well, while
north on Duck Creek Bert Brim is TAX
ing out ore which yield s so per cent
lead and 50 in silver. There are vast
stores of mineral wealth yet uncovered
in this vicinity and the coming season
will see many new properties developed.

A KILKINNEY CAT AFFAIR.

The Carson News contains the follow
Ing as rejecting the spirit of harmony
which pervades the Newlands parties
In Nevada at the present time
The fusionists are having great times
these days among themselves. They
are split up into about forty dozen dif-
ferent antagonistic factions, and remind
one OF gang OF pirates fighting over
the spoils. And. by the way, 1t Is
about the same sentiment that Is actu-
ating this party ruction.
The leaders OF the fusion party are
devoted to many national principles
SO they loudly assert-but before all
they want office and the spoils OF vic
tory. And unfortunately there are
not enough official positions to go a.
round. Every man who has held an
Office argues that he has served his
party well and should be reelected,
while every man who has not yet had
an Office is becoming impatient for his
turn to come. The fusionists realize
that their sway will end shortly and
therefore there is scramble to get In
on the band wagons last trip.
The Virginia Chronicle of a recent
date contains vicious attack upon
Secretary of State Howell and Warden
Henderson. This perhaps would be oi
little importance II it were not for eer-
tain indications, apparent to all The
Chronicle, under its present editorial
management, would not take any po-
sitIon In politics that would be offensive
to Mr.. Newlands or his State manager,
w +. Sharon, so it may be taken for
granted that our Congressman las
sharpened up his knife for Messrs
Howell and Henderson. For what pnr-
pose Is not disclosed.
Another element is working to ae-
complish the downing of Governor Sad
ler for denomination. Lem Allen Is to
be treated in like manner and also
turned down.
James r. Judge Is not one OF the IA
yored ones either, II rumor may be
credited.
Controller Davis ls slated TO feel the
effects of tho knife and as it Is not like
ly he will enjoy the operation or sub
NIT meekly, some fun may be antici-
pated In this quarter.
All OF this is going to lead TO oomph
cations that will make fusion not the
easiest of things to accomplish.

SUICIDE OF JUDGE HEALEY.
Was Formerly "A Large Land
Holder In White Pine County.

Judge T. w. Healey, who for more
than forty years had been prominent
and highly respected citizen of Nevada,
committed suicide at Carson on Satur-
day night last by shooting himself
through the head When found he
was still grasping the revolve', she
bullet from which had entered the
right temple, passing through the left
temple and on through the pillow.
On his desk was found his will, writ
ten by himself, which reads as follows:
Last will and testament OF T. w.
Healey of Carson City New, made Feb
ruary 10, 1902. | hereby give, grant
and beaueath all my property, real
and personal, To my dear friend, S. II.
Day of Carson City, New, consisting OF
my land in White Pine and Nye coun-
ties In Nevada, wrongfully sold for
taxes by the Bullion and Exchange
bank, Carson, and direct that my
literary copyrights and manuscripts be
given TO Prof Howe to have them pub
lished by Harper Bros, and tho pro-
ceeds of the sales divided between S.
H. Day and Prot Howe.
(Seal) IT. w. HEALEY." "
Some fifteen or twenty years ago
Judge Healey in company with S. H.
Marlette, rquired title to large
tracts of land In White Pine county,
and some years later, Mr.. Marlette,
becoming financially embarrassed,
his interest in the property passed
into the hands OF the Bullion and EX-
change Bank of Carson. Through tax
sales and other obligations nearly all Of
Judge Healey's interests were absorbed
also by that institution, and on Janu-
airy 20 last the last OF his holdings in
this county were bid in by A. D. Camp
ton.
Judge Healey is remembered by
friends here as man OF high attain
ments, and high-minded honorable
gentleman. He was private secretary
to Governor Adams during his term of
office and held a number of positions of
trust and honor in this State.

John Quinn Is Not Dead.

A fow weeks ago the NEWS published
an item, which went the rounds OF the
State press. recording the death at
Needles, Cal, of John Quinn, former
well known resident OF White Pine

oughly reliable source that Mr.. Quinn
is not only not dead, but within the
past few days he purchased a large
block OF valuable land at Needles,
where he now makes his home. The
NEWS cheerfully corrects the error and
trusts that Mr.. Quinn has many years
OF usefulness yet before him,

The notice, which disturbed Mr..
Knowlton's s peace of mind, was contain
ed in the delinquent tax list of White
Pine county, aud that it was in every
way regular there is no question. 1t Is
safe to assert that Treasurer William
son demanded the taxes on the proper
tY, and tried in every way to collect
the same before advertising II as delin-
quent, THE NEWS had no discretion
in the matter, but published the list as
1t was furnished US by the proper Off
GER, and it appeared in this paper reg
ularly until after the date fixed by law
for the sale of property on which taxes
had not been paid.
No more prominence was given to
this description than any Of the other
five which appeared with it, although,
indeed. we have felt more than once
that it was our duty TO call attention to
some things connected with the Butter
field management which really demand
ed, and still demand, qn explanation.
II Mr.. Knowlton, or his associates,
wants to know what these "thingsn
are he has only to say the word and the
NEWS will give him some nuts to crack
that will not only call for the lively ex-
ercise Of his gray matter, but will fur
nish some interesting reading for the
stockholders of that company and the
people OF Osceola and White Pine
county as well.
