ITS SUCCESS
Is ASSURED
Celebration Coming on in
Fine Shape--BaII Game
for 3 O'Clock

The celebration in Winnemucca is
taking up all the time of the COM
mittees now, and everybody is getting
in readiness for the occasion. The
failure of the Elko baseball players to
keep their word, while a disappoint-
ment to some, will in no way detract
from the amusement program plan
ned for the 4th. Other sports will be
substituted, and the visitors will be
shown just as good a time as they
would have been if the game had been
played as scheduled. The day will
not be without it's baseball game, how
ever. for there is to be a battle on the
diamond between the G. M. A. club
OF Winnemucca and the second nine
from Lovelock at p. m. The clubs
are evenly matched, and they will
play for the best there is in them.
Tomorrow morning the committee
on decorations will begin getting in
their artistic work in putting up the
national colors in flags and buntings.
From present indications there will be
no rain to spoil them and the decorat-
ing will all be done tomorrow. The
banners marking the starting points
and limits of the racing courses on
Railroad street will be put up also.
The printed programs give a list of
the events, which will be followed out
as nearly in accordance with the time
set apart for each as the additions
thereto will permit.

letter from Henry Miller, of the
firm of Miller & Lux. in San Fran
cisco, containing a check for $50 as
contribution to the Fourth of July
fund. The letter came as reply
to a hint from one of the committee
to the effect that a contribution would
be received with gratitude, and is
characteristic of the generosity of the
donors. They should be remembered
on the day we celebrate, and if per-
chance any glasses are drained on that
day, a goodly proportion of them
should be to the health of Miller &
Lux
The committee on program for the
| literary exercises has promised to
furnish the Silver State with a copy
of the program in time for publfca-
ton in tomorrow's paper.

DENIED THEIR REQUEST
Refusal to Grant Eight-hOur
Day to Miners

DENVER, July Replying to the
request from Denver mill and smelter
mems union No. SO, for an eight-hour
day. Franklin Guiterman, general
manager of the American Smelling
and Refining company, issued an ad-
dI ess today ITO the Employees of the
American Smelling and Refining com
pany in Colorado"
Mr.. Guiterman declares that the
company does not make any distinc-
ton between it's employees with re-
spect to union or nCn-union member
ship.
THE petition elieits that in other
states, meaning Montana and Utah,
this company has granted an eight
hour day and that the wages PAID 10
its employees there are also In excess
of the highest wage paid in Colorado
smelters for a ten and twelve-hour
day.
While the former part of the state
ment is true, the latter part is not
The inference to be drawn, how
ever, is very plain and may be sum
med up in the conclusion that not
alone is an eight-hour day for Colo
RADIO smelters asked for, but that this
concession, if it could possibly be
granted, would only be preliminary
to a demand for ten and twelve-hour
wage for such eight-hour day.
Mr.. Guiterman then enumerates the
conclusion which precludes, he says,
the granting of the smelter mems re-
quest, the principal of which Is the
steady lowering of grades or smelling
ores produced in the Leadville, the
Creede and Aspen mining districts.
To accede to the request for an
eight-hour day, he says, would mean
the serious crippling Of either the
smelling or the mining industries In
the state. neither OF which contin-
gencies can be faced with indifference
or cOmplacency"

THE PLATFORM

Senator Allisons tariff-trust plank,
which will be adopted by the conven-
ton, is as follows:
I'VE reiterate our faith in the his
toric policy Of protection. Under its
influence our country, foremost in the
bcunties of nature, has become fore
most in production. 1t has enabled
the laborer to successfully insist up
or good wages and has induced capi-
tai to engage in production with a
reasonable hope of fair reward. Its
vindiction is found in the history OF
its success and the rapidity with
which our national resources have
been developed and our Industrial in
dependence secured and we heartily
renew our pledge to maintain it.
Tariff rates enacted to carry this
policy into effect should be just, fair
and impartial, equally opposed to for
eign control and domestic monopoly
10 sectional discrimination and indi-
vidual favoritism and must from time
to time be changed to meet the vary
Ing conditions incident to the pro-
gress OF our industries and their
changing relations in our foreign and
domestic commerce.
Duties that are too low should be
Increased. and duties that are too high
should be reduced.
We indorse the policy of reciprocity
and the natural compliment of pro-
lection. Reciprocity between nations
Is trade for mutual advantages and
both sides must give and take Pro-
lection builds up domestic industry

An Oasis in the Desert

The Office of the Silver State is fill
ed with the fragrance of huge bou-
quet of sweet peas this afternoon, to
such an extent that the editorial force
scan do little else tnan admire it. The
flowers are from the garden of Mrs. j.
A. Cochran, undoubtedly one of the
finest in the state, and certainly with
out an equal in Winnemucca.
Mrs. Cochran devotes a great deal
OF time and well-directed effort to
the care of the beautiful pansies. sweet
peas, roses and many other varities
of flowers, and from the manner in
which she disposes of them, many of
her friend shave reason to appreciate
her generosity. 1t is seldom indeed
that the dull monotony of the printing
Office and its not too cheerful environ
ments are relieved in so pleasing a
manner, and Mrs. Cochran has the sin
cere thanks of the Office for her kind
remembrance.

WEDEklND TO SINK
Shaft on the Bonanza to 90
Down 500 feet.

Hon. John Sparks, the popular Gov
ernor of Nevada, whose visits to Zion
are always characterized by a most
cordial reception, says that sinking
on his Wedekind group is to be re-
sumed at once and the shaft hurried
down to a depth of 500 feet, says the
Salt Lake Tribune of yesterday. While
the property has been productive of a
large volume of wealth already, the
shaft does not at present exceed 100
feet, although below that level the
ore bodies are going down with an en-
ergy that nothing can stop.
Governor Sparks is one OF the for
tunate number by which the Belmont
group, in which the very rich ore was
recently uncovered. is controlled. and
reports the metals occurring in great
slabs, while the vein is a strong one.

OF these forty-six were brought out

Tins may be brought to the surface
today.
President H. G. Burt and other
officials of the Union Pacific and Su-
perintendent d. o. Clark of the
Union Pacific Coal company arrived
mere early today and have taken per-
sonal charge of the work of removing
debris from the slope and entries
and reaching the bodies of the VIC
tins. The miners believe the awful
explosion occurred on the seventeenth
level from the fact that the slope and
entries are more and more checked
as it is approached.
The bodies found here will probably
be badly burned and mangled.
An improvised hospital has been To-
Gated near the mouth of the slope and
the morgue is close at hand but there
will probably be no use for the former
unless it is to care for those injured

Iowa Republicans Adopt the
Platform Drafted by Sen
atOr Allison
GOV. CUMMINS RENOMINATED
Strong Ticket Throughout-Con-
vention Absolutely Free
From Discord

DES MONIES, Iowa, July 1.-The
utmost harmony prevailed in the Re-
publican state convention which con-
vened at IL o'clock in the new Audi
torium in this city. with more than a
thousand delegates present.
But two propositions are before the
convention-the platform and the no.
mination of a candidate for Superin-
tendent of Public Instruction.
The former is practically agreed up
on, owing to an understanding enter
ed into some time ago that Senator
Allison should prepare the planks
pertaining to the tariff and the trusts.
A full State ticket will be nominated
with A. B. Cummins, of Polk. for
Governor; John Herriott, of Adair, for
Lieutenant Governor; Charles A. Bis
hop. OF Polk, for Judge of the Supreme
Court; d. J. Palmer. of Washington.
for Railroad Commissioner, all Of
whom are for the present serving their
first term.
There are three candidates for the
position of State Superintendent, r.
c. Barrett, of Usage; H. t. Adams,
OF West Union and J. F. Riggs, of
Sigourney. Barrett is the present in
cumbent and is a candidate for the
fourth term.
All interest is centered around the
committee on resolutions and just
previous to holding the district eau
cuses, each one of which is entitled
to a member upon the committe, the
opinion prevails that there would be
no hitch in the proceedings and that
the tariT plank as prepared, would be
.,rorsed by the committee.
In the caucuses held at 10 O'Clock
the stand-patters won by a majority
OF three in the eleventh district meet
ings held for the selection OF members
of the committe on resolutions.
The Cummins force met defeat in
the sixth district by a vote of 81 to
81. 1t was expected that he sixth dis
trict would elect a tariff reformer.
The standing of the committee is
conceded to be as follows: Stand
patters, first, second, third fifth, sixth.
eighth and ninth Revisionists, fourth,
seventh, tenth and eleventh.
State Chairman Spencer called the
convention to order.
After the invocation Hon. George
DR.. Perkins of Sioux City, was pre-
sented as temporary chairman of the
convention.

NO BODIES RECOVERED.

OMAHA, July Reports are re-
ceived at the Union Pacific headquar-
ters this morning from Hanna, Wyo..
of the progress of the rescue party
in the Hanna mines up to 4 a. m.
They state that the rescuers have
penetrated quite a distance into the
mine, but so far had recovered no
bodies.
The difficulty of securing entrance
tO the mine was increased by smoke
and gas, and 1t is now thought that
the matter of getting air into the
mine is the only hope Of res,uing any
of the entombed men alive
An order was received in Omaha for
$50 coffins which are being shipped
to Hanna.
