T Vincents screamingly funny farce
Our New Man" will be seen at the
Carson Opera House next Tuesday
night. He comes TO US loaded down
with the highest ecomiulns from
critics all over the country some So
ing so far as to say that his methods
remind them of such artists as Billy
Florence, John Sleeper Clarke and
John t. Raymond and that his comedy
is from the legitimate school, free
from the slap-stick and knock about
order that contaminates most farces
today. Our New Man" is one L
those delightful farces that is fresh
in comedy, rich in repartee and clever
in construction. 1t affords Mr.. Beres-
ford ample opportunity to display his
methods and pecularities and has won
for him the distinction It being one
of the brightest of the younger come
dians on the stage of today. Manager
Coleman has staged his play quite eff
fectively and has surrounded Mr.
Beresford with cast that will portray

Route Selected.

1t has just been learned that Virgil
G. Bogue, chief engineer working I'M
der direction of the Goulds in the con-
struction of the Western Pacific rail
road spent some time along the line
of the N. c. o. and over the proposed
routes of the Western Pacific He
completed his work last Saturday
AS a result of his visit the line of the
great transcontinental road has been
definitely decided upon. OF the four
surveys passing through the Beck
with Pass he has selected one which
with a few minor alterations will be
decided on. AS a result of Mr. Buoges
visit, The Journal can reliably state
that the news published in this paper
few days ago has been confirmed
again from an official source The
road will strike Reno. This city Will
be terminal and within few years
will enjoy the advantage of a Compel
ing road across the continent-Reno

Two or three weeks ago the Times
advocated the establishment of a Min
ing Bureau in this State, and asked
the Legislature to take the matter up.
Some days ago the Carson Appeal
stole our article and later on the Reno
Gazette copied it and gave the Appeal
credit for it. While it would have
been but courteous to give the article
credit where it was due, we will not
quarrel with our thieving contemporar-
les about it if they will push the propo-
sition along. The State needs min
ing bureau very much. Nevada is to
day attracting the attention of people
from all over the world, and a bureau
would help much to give the outside
world a true inwardness of the great
ness of our mining State. Won't some
of the papers in the other counties
take the matter up and urge their
members in the legislature to boost
the measure along-Lyon County

LEADS THE STATE.
Good Showing Of the Old Comstoc
Lode,

The annual report of the State Cor
roller for the year ending 1904 is
land, and examining the mining re
urns from the various counties, w
notice the net yield on which bullio'
AK is paid for Esmeralda county, thi
includes Goldfield, is $256,230 10, OF
which the total bullion tax is $7,711 0,
Nye county including Tonopah, ne
Weld subject to bullion tax is $7,503 o.
Storey counties net yield subject tC
bullion tax is $323,73O "a, on which
the bullion tax is Sl3,229 50. Wha
we want to impress on our readers is
the fact that the worked out and much
abused Comstock, virtually yields
double the amount in bullion tax than
the so-called two greatest mining
camps in the world put forth, that
people all over the country are flock
ing to. This article is not intended
in any way to criticise or draw indiv-
idous comparisons because we act
ually believe that the output in Tono-
pah and Goldfield is more than report
ed. Either false returns are made or
the assessor does not do his duty

THE ANTI CURlER BILL
m Old Defeated Measure Bobs up
Again This Session.

The action Of the Bar Association
endorsing bill which is to be pre-
iented to the legislature providing
hat no attorney shall practice before
! justice of the Peace or District
Judge to whom he is related within
the third degree, has created no end of
comment as it is regarded as a direct
thrust at Judge B. F. Curler of this
judicial district Friends Of the gen
tleman say that it is an attempt to de-
stroy the business of Benjamin Cur
Ter, father of the Judge for personal
reasons
For several days a story has been
current that Judge Curler would re-
sign if the bill became law, as he
would construe it as slap at himself
or an attempt to destroy his fathers
practice and in the latter event would
not allow his retention in Office to pro-
duce sucn result. When asked re-
garding the matter this morning
Judge Curler said:
Il cannot say that will resign if
the proposed act becomes law, but if
l thought that the people Of this COM
munity felt that | was not fair on the
bench in all cases, regardless of the
! relationship of the attorneys practic-
! ing before me I certainly wound re
/ sign. l have always tried TO be abso-
lutely honest and unbiased in ali
cases arising in my court and | regret
! very very much if the people Of this
! district feel that l have been partial.
! The act in question is either an at
/ tack on myself or my father and
/ hardly feel that it is approved by the
majority Of attorneys of the Washoe
county bar. l will probably have my
say in the matter later"
Friends of Judge Curler are greatly
incensed at the measure and say that
! it would be outrageous for the legisla-
ture to enact it into law. Said one
man this morning:
Il am certain that the bill is prompt
/ cd by jealousy and a desire to break
down the practice Of the elder Curler
and also by a desire to iniure Judge
Curler. The latter has made an ex-
cellent Judge, one of the best men that
ever presided in Washoe county AMI
in my opinion the people are satisfied
with the record that he has made.
would regret very much if he were to
leave the bench and hope that he
will give up the thought.
The members of the Bar Associa-
ton who are championing the measure
say that in a number Of other states
the same law was in effect and should
be applied in Nevada.

SOME OF THE LAWMAKERS.
: The Nevada Hera!ds Observations on
Some Of Them.


Elko county has an excellent repres-
entation il both branches Of the Ne
vada Legislature and the people of the
leading county of the great east
are to be congratulated upon the fact.
ence comes Hon H. H. Coryell OF
Wells He is, as a member of the AS
sembly, the one of widest experience
Of all the members of the lower house
and many of the younger members
look to him for advice to lead them
through tempestous pillows Of legisa-
ton.
Among the youngest members is
Hon. c. B. Henderson of Elko. Every
body calls him Charlie and admit him
to be able and conservative At the
banquet commemorating the election
<T George S. Nixon, he made a remark
ably sensible speech while replying
to the toast, How the Monority Feels"
He was aplauded very loudly and
heartily congra tulated by everyone of
both political parties upon his effort.
Hon. Edward Mcmahon, of Tuscoro-
ra and Hon. ]. A. Mcbride of Elko,
while being assemblymen of but few
words are studious, conservative and
alert to the interests of their consti-
tuents. Whe nit comes to important
legislation they will be found on the
side of the right.
In the Senate. Hon. Thomas Hunter
of Elko and Hon. Oscar Graham of
Tuscarora occupy seats together but
few feet of the stand of the presiding
officer. Both of them are on hand at
every roll call, and no unwise or IN
just legislation will ever receive their
sanction
Eureka county has the proud dis
tinction of having in the Senate a
gentleman who has seen ten years Of
consecutive legislative experience.
We refer to Hon. Robert Raftice of
Eureka. He was first elected to the
assembly in 1896, again in '9S again
in 1900, and in 1902 he was elected
Senator, defeating his opponent by
q votes, although $4,000 was used in
an effort to beat him. The people of
Eureka did well when thew decided
Mr.. Raftice their choice. He is broad
minded and his record is an open book
Plain, unassuming and honest, no mea-
sure will receive his support that IS
not drawn to the interests of the peo-
pie. Senator Gallagher of White Pine
is another worker He is always at
>Ks desk studying the messages Of
State officers and preparing for wise
legislation.
Many of the older members of the
legislature and a large number Of
citizens of Carson make frequent in
quiries about ex-senator Hardesty of
Wells.
Ex-Assemblyman Robert Skags Of
Bullion is also missed in the legisla-
tive halls. The members have no con.
stitutional authority since Bob's re-
tirement who can they consult?
