that he had helped that famous pioneer
to dig the first irrigating ditch taken

On that showing he was entitled to
leniency and the court was Inclined to
make things as easy for him as pos

HiGH-HANDED WORK.
An Elko sspotter" Run Out Of the
Town by Law Breakers.

Town by Law Breakers.
Tuesday night an occurrence took
place in Elko. that the Independent
cannot pass by in silence. because it
affects the good name Of the town as
an orderly. law abiding community.
The particulars Of the affair as near
as we are able to learn them are about
las follows.
For several months a man who gave
his name as John S. Striker has been
around Eiko posing as prospector
and carpenter, but in reality following
the role Of spotter for the Southern
Pacific company. This is proved by Jet
tiers that he received from c.. C. Grow
ley, the special agent of that company
in San Francisco, which accidentally
fell into the hands of other people.
1t is also charged that Striker went
to several business men in town and
asked them to assist him to get 10
Ogden by introducing him to con-
ductor that would pass him over the
road for less than the full fare In one
instance he is said to have been given
the name of conductor that would
help him along. In this case he said
he would pay his fare to Carlin and
get on the train there
Tuesday night Striker was charg "a
in the Elk saloon with being a railroad
spy. He denied the charge and was as
saulted by several men. He was after.
wards taken by a self appointed coE,-
miCtee to the Commercial hotel, where
] Tom Harvey read the discriminating
I letter to him, after he had denied re.
/ ceiving any such letter. He was then
escorted across the street by the cola
mittee and afterwards went to his
room at Mrs. Roach's lodging house
Here he remained until about IL y
cock, wnen a number of men went
to the room broke a panel out of the
door and took him out. He had not
returned to his room at noon and NJ
body seems to know where ne Wen
or what has become of him.
While the Independent cannot and
docs not uphold the. dirty work this
man was doing in this community, j,
emphatically condemns the means tina,
were taken to get rid of him. Every
man has rights guaranteed to him by
the law and no self appointed commit
i tee or other persons have a right tc
!, drive him from the community. Suc.l
la proceeding is directly contrary t
law and sure to lead to lawlesness an
crime.
