Hoffman for Chairman
caldwell Tribune.l

Some of the papers in the north are
proposing and approving Hon. Chas. l..
Hoffman for chairman of the republic
can state committee. There certainly
can be no question of Judge Heitman's
qualifications. and if il shall appear
that Hon. Frank J. Goodng is prepar-
Ing to step out. no better suggestion
ton of any one for state chairman, at
this time though. is apt to arouse sus-
picion, and among Mr.. Gooding's
friends it may appear as step toward
the forcible ejectment of their gallant
chief We think that Judge Heitman's
friends should withhold presentation
until Colonel Gooding has indicated his
future purposes.
There is now much reason to believe
that Mr.. Gooding will be put forward
as candidate for governor. There is
a very general movement favorable to
him in the southeast. although it has
not received his personal encourage
ment or sanction. We believe he is
now, with prospects of becoming more
so. the most formidable rival Of Gov
ernor Morrison. yet mentioned. Indeed,
it may be said that he is the only rival
put forth by an organized force Of re-
spectacle dimensions. Should his
friends persist in urging him and la
boring for him, he will probably ac-
quiesce in their wishes. and then. as a
matter of propriety. indicate his disin-
clination to continue at the head of the
state organization. In such an event,
Judge Hoffman might be largely sup

THE MERGER UNMERGED

The supreme court of the United
States has decided against the legality
OF the merger and now the railroad
maenates are in court to decide who
shall have the spoils. There is open
warfare now where few months ago
there was comparative harmony.
The net result will be not only the
unmerging Of the merger but the
breaking up of the community of in
terest plans which have prevailed for
some years in the management Of
western railroads.
The fight in the courts is between
the point at issue is the control of the
Northern Pacific railroad When the
merger was formed Hartman convert
ed $72.000.0OO of his holdings in North
ern Pacific stock into merger stock now
he wants the Northern Pacific stock re-
turned, but such a return would prac-
tically give him control of the road and
to this Hill objects but offers him stock
of the Great Northern and Of the
Northern Pacific in about equal blocks,
80 that such division would leave
Hill in full control Of both roads. On
this issue the fight is being waged.
The immediate effect of the fight is
to stop all projected railroad extern
sions under consideration before the
trouble began. There is no surprise
then in the announcement recently
made by President Mohler in Port
land that there would be a delayin the
proposed construction Of the Lewis
ton-Riparia roa0.
The road was to have been built
under compromiss agreement. whers
tract1ge rights were conceded for both

ing will be done till the legal battle il
fought out. II seems equally apparent
also that the road IS sure to be bull,
when the contest is over. The only
thing that has delayed the construction
for the past year has been the inability
Of the two systems to get together over
the concessions. NJ
II Hartman wins and gets practica
control OF the Northern Pacific this
conflict will end and the road will
probably be put through at once. II OF
the other hand Hartman loses. tn,

FAREWELL
SURPRISE.
Schoolrnates Of Bernard Nc
Govern Honor Him With
a Party.

The many young friends and school
mates of Bernard McGovern rendered
MIN farewell surprise party at Music
Hall last night
At seven-thirty the young guests be-
gan to arrive and over a hundred had
assembled by eight O'Clock when Ber-
nard was brought into the hall. From
that time on merriment held full sway
and those present enjoyed themselves
as only young people can. Joining
hands they circled around the hail. and
played cat and rouse and other iuven
lie games.
The music was furnished by The
Misses Nellie Doneln and Myrtle York
and at nine O'Clock the tune of sally
Waters delighted the hearts Of the
children who are not yet skilled in the
two step, waltz, schottische, etc.
Mr.. Rex Stinson acted as floor
manager and there was much dancing
and little intermission, all Of which was
a source of delight to those present.
The grand march. led by Bernard
McGovern and his little sister Lura,
was participated in by fully eighty
couples and was indeed a pleasing
sight.
Delicate refreshments we're served
at eleven o'clock and were fully en-
joyed.
After refreshments there was dane
ing for short time, and soon the stroke
Of midnight gave the glad warning to
to those mischievo1sly inclined that the
first day of April was at hand. and the
playing of april fool jokes was
another source Of amusement.
Besides the young people of Ber-
nards age. just budding into manhood
and womanhood those who managed
the affair had taken care that there
were plenty Of playmates for little
Lura, and a number of grown peo-
nIe"-the teachers and Darents of the
children.-had the pleasure of witness
ing their enjoyment. There is nothing
that warns the heart like watching the
healthy, care-free pleasures Of youth.
The guests departed for their homes
at one O'Clock. happy as larks, having
enjoyed one Of the most memorable
juvenile parties ever given in Wads-
worth.

worthy was somewhat surprised few

addressed to "stage driver" from
man signing his name as C. D. Royce,
and purporting to be her husband, ask
ing the woman's whereabouts. In the
meantime the woman had made trip

Ion. Not long after this the man
claiming to be her husband, having To-
Gated her at the Bailey ranch arrived
from Sacramento with the intention of
taking his truant spouse back with him
But, alasl such is the inconsistency Of
some members of the female sex, the
wife had met another man named
Billy Robinson. who, to her eyes made
her husband look like thirty cents.

fession in substance as follows
The woman. whose name was Ethel
Ramson was postmistress at Preupialan
Wisconsin and by her aid Royce whose
real name is Pierce D. Conan robbed
the postoffice at that place in January
1894.
Conan was placed under arrest, but
in the meantime the woman and Rob
inson secured team and attempted
to escape, but were olertaken at
Hazen by Deputy Sheriff Mamie San
ford at one O'Clock yesterday morning
and taken back to Fallon where the wo-
man was lodged In jail

graphed to Madison. Wis, aporisng

and received instructions to hold Co.

Marshal with proper warrants, but
there was no indictment against the

OUTLOOK
FOR NEVADA.
Home Market VIII Probably
Consume the Products
Of the Soil.

Here in Nevada the people are only
beginning to realize the importance Of
irrigation. Though mining of precious
and base metals and the non-metallic
minerals constitute the chief industry
Of the State, there is every reason to
believe that agriculturalists and stock
rasers will devote more time from this
on in learning how 10 use water and
land to the very best advantage in the
production Of the various crops. The
stockraiser is vitality interested in the
irrigation scheme as 1t offers to him
sort Of insurance against partial and
total loss Of stock from storms, by
having them fed and cared for in the
valleys during the stormy season.
Winter feeding would appear to in
crease the value Of ranges, which are
now overstocked in many places.
The agriculturalist at present has an
interest in the ranch, not only for the
hay, fruit, cereals and vegetables pro-
duced, but usually is the owner Of a few
horses cattle. or sheep and does not
worry about market for the products
Of the soil. Hence he is more often
to be cassed with the stockraisers as
the latter's market is the one that
most concerns him.
But time will change all this and
then we shall find the Nevada rancher
aman given over to study and calcula-
ton, for the sole cause that he will be
forced to regulate his crops so as to
increase the area of highly valuable
products, while reducing the relative
acreage Of the crops of lesser value.
True, the time is not as yet come
when the Nevada rancher need go out
side Of the State for ready market
for all things produced from soil
Some are inclined to believe that
the future growth Of the mining indus
try will more than furnish market for
farm products for all time.
If Tonopah holds the present pace
Tor five years the population Of the
State will have doubled. to say nothing
Of other new camps Of merit now TAX
ing on growth, which will attract their
share Of the large numbers who are
being drawn towards Nevada from less
prosperous mining regions.
When one stops to consider the
mineral resources of the State in its
entirety. and the available irrigable
and acreage. its probable yield. and the
chance Of both being sought for by
apeople who will be anxious to reap
benefits from contemplative and pains
taking methods applied to their inter
ests, be it mining or farming, it
seems as though the demand at home
may even exceed the supply for all
uTne. Even so, the stimulus of gain
remains to encourage greater know.
