advent of the railroad will prove a
sad blight to Tonopah, The people
will then buy away from home and
the towns merchants will then take
in pennies where now they receive
dollars. Besides the removal Of the
teams will take from the town thou
sands monthly which it now receives
for feed, blacksmith bills, to say moth
ing of the money which the hundred
teamsters and hostlers scatter around
the camp" Not on your tintype
Tonopah don't fear the advent of the
railroad one jot. When the iron
horse arrives this thrifty mining town
will do as much teaming, If not more,
than it does now, for then Tonopah
will be supply center, distributing
goods and mining material to the nu-
merous camps that are being devel-
oped in southwestern Nevada.

months. An appropriation for allot-

last session of Congress. The reser-

survey has been made and allot-

to the Indians. The department is
just about proceeding to take action
in the matter, as now it has got only
SO far as to ask for price from the
state papers for publishing a notice
inviting proposals for the services of
surveyors. After the survey and
allotments have been made a proc
lama ation will be issued by the presi-
dent stating the terms on which the
reservation will be thrown open to
settlement.

amendment from exercising that right But tnat
amendment relates solely to action "by the United
States or by any State" and does not contem-
plate wrongful individual acts"
He quoted authorities to show that statute
which purports to punish purely individual action
cannot be sustained as appropriate exercise OF
the power conferred by the Fifteenth Amendment
on Congress to prevent action by the State through
some one or more Of its official representatives. and
that an indictment which charges no discrimina-
ton on account Of race, color or previous con-
dition of servitUde is likewise destitute OF support

Justice Brewer added that the court is fuIIy sen
sfbe of the great wrong which results from orlp-
ery at elections and does not question the power
OF Congress to punish such offences when com
ttted in respect the election OF federal ofceTs
At the same time it is all important that the
