to issue badges to delegates holding
the proper certificates from county
committees. These only are to be adj
mitted to the floor Of the convention.
The contesting delegates will be on
the same footing as other spectators
until the contests are decided. This
means that the anti-Dunn forces will
have q, majority on the floor OF the
convention.
It is very doubtful whether the
Dunn managers would be able to,
swing all Of the Dunn delegates for a
program unseating the majority dele-l
gates from Hennepin and Ramsey. The
general sentiment OF the country dele-l
gates condemns the tactics Of the bolt
ers, They are opposed to boiling at
any stage and 1t will be hard to con-
vince them that such tactics should be
encouraged by seating the rump dele-
cations. They are free to say that
whatever the outcome Of the conven-
ton tomorrow they will not stand
for any bolt.
Third Man Talk-Eddy' Attitude.

heard to-day among the delegates and

Berlin, June 29.-The German

-. CLAPP MUST. DECIDE
AS Temporary Chairman He Will Rule
on Contests.

The bitter struggle of the past SIX
months will come to a head When
Robert Jamison, chairman OF the
state central committee, calls the con-
yention to order tomorrow morning
at 10 O'Clock, in the Metropolitan
operahouse, st. Paul.
The anti-Dunn forces have ma
jority OF, the regularly accredited dele
gates. They claim at least sos who
are certain to vote with them. Col
Inns delegates, kept under cover, are
to be found, it is claimed, in several
uninstructed delegations now set oo"n
as solid for Dunn.
Plan OF the Dunn Men.
The Dunn forces have started con-
tests for the seats Of 215 Collins ana
EDDY delegates. Only twenty-eight
Dunn delegates are contested AZ TINS
If The Dunn men can unseat the
Collins delegates, they will control the
convention. That Is their program.
They are planning today to bring 1t
about by seating their delegations
from Hennepin, Ramsey Benton ana
other counties.
The antf-Dunn FORCES are laya1ls
their plans to prevent this action and
retain control Of the convention.
Senator Clapp to Decide.
The whole question seems to be up
to Senator Moses e. Clapp, who has
heen recommended by the state CEN
trail committee for temporary chair
man. His selection prevents ,l a. test
vote on the temporary organization,
and the first question will come upon
the contest. Senator Clapp must de-
eide whether contested delegates nave
| a right to vote on the temporary or
ganization. His ruling will go g, long
way towards deciding the question.
| The Collins men say that the sena.
| tor can only rule that the contested
delegates have a right to vote except
on their own contest. This is recog-
| nized convention practice and prece-
| dent established by republican ma
/ tional conventians. A ruling to TINS
effect was made by the late Presiden,
Mckinley as chairman Of the naIfona1
convention at Minneapolis in 1897, AND
has been adhered to ever since. AS
| the Collins men point out, this Is the
| only practicable ruling. II all con.
tested delegates are to be debarrec
| from the proceedings, then contests
might be started in eighty-tWo coun'
ties, leaving just one county delega:
j there were contests In every county
there could -be no convention at all
Dunn would Bar Contestants.
The Dunn managers will ask tina
i all contested delegates be debarret
from. voting until the credentials com
/ nnittee has reported. They contend
that this has been the practice Of pre-
4 yious state conventions. The Collins
men say that If this is true, it is TIM
the conventions get away from such
practice and adopt one that Is reason
able and in line with other parliamen
tary bodies.

1t is rumored that Billy Otis Of
San Francisco and Bert Lundy are
liable to come together here some
time near the first of the year. The
report has not been verified, but If
Otis does not come Frank McCon.
nell a well known middle weight
boxer of San Francisco will come in
his stead. Either Otis or Mcconnell
would be a good drawing card with
Lundy as they are both well known
in the fstic world. Otis in all prob

lighter than Lundy, but taking into
consideration his knowledge of the
game he will probably overcome this
weight handicap. Lundy has agreed

CIRCULATION IN TONOPAH
THE NEW

Not a week passes without fresh
discoveries of high grade gold ore be-
ing made in the districts south of
Tonopah, and with Goldfeld as a
base of supplies pr%ospectors are
spreading out east, west and south
of there and penetrating country
which only a year ago was considered
too difficult OF access on account of
scarcity of water. With another
base of supplies established at Amar-
gosa it is certain that the vast tract
of mineral bearing country round
there will be thoroughly prospected
this winter and undoubtedly some
valuable discoveries will be made.
For years it has been known that the
southwest part Of Nevada and on
through to Death valley is rich in
minerals, but few prospectors cared
to face death from thirst in order to
penetrate a region so inhospitable
and so aptly named. These dangers
are o being eliminated and the
construction of the projected railroad
will make the country accessible to
all. The most gratifying part about
these new discoveries in Nevada is
that they are of gold ore and Of such
great richness that in spite Of dis
lance from transportation and CON
sequent high costs of mining the
fortunate wners take a fortune from
the ground in a few months. And
these discoveries Of gold are building
up a new Nevada. The old Nevada,
the Silver State with all its indolent
satisfaction to live on the records of
its Comstock lode, is dead. Tonopah
and Golofield have attracted new
blood; cool, shrewd, level headed
mine operators from all parts of the
world, with ample capital to develop
great mines are arriving daily pur
chasing and bonding prospects, anC
the coming year will witness more
legitimate mining in Nevada than ha.
been known for forty years. 1t i
admitted that the gold 0
Cripple Greek are being exhausted
and this section of Nevada will tax
the place of that great camp. Whe
the government mineral statistic
for 1904 are completed it will be see
that Nevada shows the greatest pei
centage Of gain in mineral output {
all the states almost entirely dueto tn
remarkable output of gold, and frol
now on the new Nevada will rank q
a gold producing state.

FOOT RACING.
The Result of the Mountain
Race and So Yard Dash.

The Result of the Mountain
Race and 50 Yard Dash.
The race to the summit of Mount
Butler about 1000 feet high and
return, was witnessed by a large
crowd on Sunday afternoon last.
Five competitors were entered but
only three faced the starter, and as
Bert Lundy was declared ineligible
on account of being a professional
mountaineer, Ed Ober and Babe
Mayer were the only contestants.
1t was nearly $3.50 when Jack Hart
igan, the starter, sent the men of
on what was considered to about a
four mile race, the greater portion
OF which was up and down the rugged
and precipitous slope of Mt. Butler.
Although much OF the race was
lost to most of the spectators on ac-
count of the distance, it is admitted
that that it was well contested
throughout and the finish on Main
street was most exciting as the mer
struggled for the lead, Ober distanc.
ing Mayer by about forty feet and
winning the race and the 500 purse
by that distance in the time Of | houl
614 seconds.
On Thu. sday the 85-yard dash be
tween Ed ODER and Bert Lundy 70.
$500 took place on Main street in tn,
presence of a big concourse of peopl0
and was won easily by Lundy b.
about four yards.

Goldfield Real Estate.

AS an instance OF the extraordinary
advance in the price Of Goldfield real
estate a transaction which took place
this week may be quoted. Early in
September Ike Mckay and J. f.
Bradley purchased a camp lot on
Main street for 81, 800 which on Oc-
tober oath they sold to Cuddy, Stock,
Mclean, McSweeney and Fisher for
So. 900, and these gentlemen had al
ready begun to erect a building
thereon. On Thursday, however,
yielding to persuasion they sold the
lot for SO, 800 and were recouped
about 5000 expended on it. This
price being equal to S210 per front
foot. it is understood that the lo'
was bought by a company OF capital
lists who will at once erect a bank
building.

Company at the
ArmOry
Followed by a Ball Under the
Auspices of Company M
the Talk of the
Town

The center of attention at the pres
ent time is the orchestra CONCERT to
be given at the Salem armory tonight,
as benefit to Company NJ, o. N. G.
This concert is to be followed by a
grand military ball, which will be the
most brilliant social function Of the
Salem social season.
The members of the company have
been working long and faithfully on
the details of the arrangements, and
nothing will be left undone to add to
the comfort of the guests of the com
pany or to the pleasure of the even
ing. The armory will be especially
heated for the concert, so the public
may rest assured that there will be no
discomfort on account of chilly
room, and the system of ventilation
Is such that the room will be cooled
for the comfort of the dancers.
Corporal Edward Thielsen and Ser
geant Byrd will have charge of the
floor, and numbers of the boys have
already done a great deal of work pre-
pairing the floor for the occasion. It
will be thoroughly waxed and polished,
and the large space will make It the
finest dancing floor in the county.
10 is almost needless to say any
thing further regarding the splendid
concert to be rendered. The mum
bers are all rare, and there is no ques-
tion but they are the best company of
musicians on the road for the size, 10
people. Both the young ladies', Miss
Pauline Slosson and Miss Louise Tor
gerson, are specialists who attract no
small amount of praise, Miss Torger.

yesterday that he had never heard the
equal of Mr.. Hawkins on the from
bone. The Aluminium Chimes Quar-
tet, the largest in the world, is very
fine, and will prove a pleasant sur.
prise for the Salem audience.
The concert will begin promptly at
s o'clock, and at 10 o'clock the or
chestra will strike up the grand march
for the most delightful social function
of the season. Admission to the con.
cert will be so cents each, and the
gentlemen taking part in the ball to
follow will be charged so cents each;
ladies free, and the entire audience
is invited to remain and witness the
brilliant scene, free of charge. Chairs
will be provided for their comfort.

the guess that gets the diamond will

The Journal Diamond Guessing Con.
test is the best advertised event of
the kind that has ever interested the
general public, and the good-natured
interest taken is not confined TO those

have no guess coming are as much in

guesses.
