Tonopah bonanza. [volume] (Butler City [i.e. Butler], Nev.) 1901-1909, 1904-04-02

The matter has stirred the social
vortex of the stateline city 20 its
depths and the local papers have
been plunged into chickering's and ex-
plantations that promise to have no
end. And it all amounts to nothing.
The visitors followed a practice that
has obtained from time immemorial.
II was only a mild form of Summing,
no worse than that INDUCED in by
the queen of England a few nights
ago in London. And as in that, no
one was hurt or lost his or her repu-
t~ation, therefore we see no reason
for the howl which has gone up. In
fact, the visit ought to be productive
Of good. 1t gave the women a chance
to witness the allurements which
fascinate and win their husbands,
sons and brothers from the family
hearth, and if they are sensible and
quick to take advantage Of the op-
portunity offered it will only inspire
them the more to make their homes
and home life so attractive and
pleasant that the seductions of faro,
roulette and craps will have no charm
for the sterner sex.

DEMOCRATIC PLATFORM.

The Detroit Tribune has labored
for a long time to figure out the
platform Of the Democrats for the
coming campaign and after much
worry produces the following:
Whereas, We have hunted from
Kalamazoo to Jerico for issues dis
tinctiye from those OF the Republican
party and failed to find any on which
all the Democrats can unite except
the tariff, which is a chestnut; there
fore
!. Resolved, That we are against
the Republican party on general
principles.
2. Damn the Republican party.
In view of the vain efforts of The
Democrats to agree upon something
or upon some basis upon which to
fight the present controlling party
the suggestions seem to be above the
mark.

THE TONOPAH BOOMER.

A Tonopah boomer died mo matter
what the day or date) and when he
reached the portals spied st. Peter
at the gate. From out beneath his
shaggy brows the old saint eyed the
coming guest, and with true Chester
feldian bows his honor of the saint
expressed. He said he had grown
tired below, his brain was worried
with its cares; the struggle was a
hard one, so he thought he'd climb
the golden stairs. st. Peter asked
the man his name, his occupation
down below, his church, his creed,
from whence he came, and what ere.

with indiscretion rank, ne'er dream.

the disembodied crank how things / n
the gold camp were. The question has
never failed to start the Tonopahan
tongue, and sanity ears were soon
a~ssailed with widest anthems ever
sung. He talked of leads and shafts
and veins, of tunnels, slopes and fis-
sures true, OF mammoth strikes and
golden gains, until the heavenly air
was blue. With growing eloquence
he sped along the oratoric track,
with gesture of both hands and head,
and frequent bowling Of the back, till
Peters ears began to ache, and
that tired feeling came to him;
yet still the Tonopahan spake his
little piece with added vim. At last
forbearance ceased to be a virtue,
and that virtuous saint arose, believ-
ing that his guest would see the in
terview was at a close. Then grabbed
he Peter by the robe, and talked,
and talked, and talked again, until
the patience of a Job would not have
stood the trying strain. In desper.
alton Peter threw the golden gate.

It has lately been discovered
that in the public schools of the
city of New Orleans a very Oh
iectionable primer has been in use
for some time. The OBJECTIONS to
the book are based upon the fact
that in one OF the verses of the
"Star Spangled Banner" refer
ence is made to "rebels" and such
other terms of odium which I'M
doubtedly allude to the position
OF the South in the Civil War.
The book also contains the ''bat-
tie hymn of the Republic, the
war song of Abe Lincoln's legions.
1t is evident that this book found
its way into the public schools oi
the South through sheer oversight,
as it emanates from Northern
publishers, but it ought to be at
once relcgated to the rear. The
people of the South are too LIBERAL
minded to feel any unnecessary
prejudice or hostility towards
those of the North, and care very
little for their peculiar notions Of
the Civil War, but they were
neither traitors, rebels or any such
things, as a study of the National
federation will plainly show, and
they would be idiots of the first
water if they allowed their children
to be educated with such contain =
mating books in their hands.
