That s4oo, 900 of bonded debt has
been stuck back on to the state and
the state administration contemplates
results with sigh of satisfaction.
And 1t only required little over
two years to do it
In 1896 the democrats took the
state with bonded debt of s4o0, 900.
1t took the democrats until 1903 to
clear that debt from the books.
The republicans got in again only in
1908 and last Saturday s46O, 500 of
state bonds were sold in Chicago to
Mcdonald, Mccoy & Go.
The democratic disgrace of no
bonded debt has been wiped out
They've got it back
And more too

FIVE PLAYERS STRIKE
Refuse to Play Because Harvey and

Disqualified.

Because Mcnamara and Harvey
We're released BY the management Of
Tic Mud Waliopers Monday night, five
Of the Cairo team, Wagner, Wilder,
Lars en-, blackburn and Price, ycster
day morning struck and refused to
play another game until the men were
roinstated. And III so doing they
have disqualified themselves for life
and placed further league or associa-
ton ball playing outside their posi-
bilities.
The men walked out deliberately
before the beginning Of the first game
yesterday and in order to play 1t, il
was necessary for I'D Elchenberger
travelling manager Of the team To
gather three very much amateur play
ers from the young men in Henderson
and place them III the Cairo uniform.
The result Of their Services Is plain
to be seen in the score of the first
game, but it was the best that could
be done under the circumstances. III
the second game an outfielder had to
do the pitching and at that would have
won his game, or would have come
even closer to It than he did, had Il
not been for the errors behind him
made by the amateurs.
AS to the strikers. Mr.. Eichenber
ger was last night instructed BY long
distance telephone to notify them chat
they were permanently suspended
that fine would be imposed upof
each one Of them to the extent d
what he had coming 20 him, and tina
they would be black listed and placed
beyond the pale of league baseball
for the remainder of their days. MI
Eichenberger said that already som,
lof them were regretting their hast.

TONOPAH'S MONTHLY
PAY ROLL

A careful estimate of the amount Of
money paid out monthly by the Tono-
pah railroad and the mining companies
of Tonopah, shows a total Of Sl19, ,000
which is quite an item when one COR
siders that the camp is but five years
old and has a population of about 60OO
In addition to the amount paid out by
those companies, another $l19,0 900 is
paid out to clerks, mechanics and la
borers, making a total of about S237, 900
that is put in circulation in the camp
each month by those employed here.
The payroll of the Tonopah railroad
is $4,000 and the mining companies
contribute the balance of $780, This
is entirely for labor and does not in
clude supplies of any kind.

Gold Mountain.

The shaft on the Tonopah- Wilmington
is down 425 feet and Manager C. T.
Hill is greatly pleased with the appear
ance of the shaft. The formation is
changing and improving. There is a
ledge of from six to ten inches of good
ore, the average values being nearly
$50 to the ton, mostly gold values.
The sacking of rich ore on the Bass
Houten lease continues and the ledge
improves with depth. A shipment will
be made in the near future and it
should net the lucky leasers snug
sum.
A force of six men was put to work
on the Toggery property atIGold Reef
this week. This is one of the best
pieces of ground in the Gold Mountain
district and with little work should
develop into rich producer. Several
capitalists and mining men havestheir
eye on this property and a sale for a
big figure is among the possibilities of
the near future.
