The Case Of Peter Betti.

Peter Betti for years conducted a
grocery store in Eureka and since his
first arrest for selling whisky to an
Indian in January. 1904, the question
of his guilt or innocence has been dis
cussed frequently and with a great deal
of feeling.
When Betti appeared in the Justice
Court in Eureka for his preliminary ex-
animation he was dismissed for want OF
jurisdiction, and it was said that the
Federal authorities at Carson had been
notified aud it was expected that a Uni
ted States officer would be In Eureka to
arrest him when he was released from
custody. None came. however, and
Betti availed himself of the opportunity
and jumped the town, remaining away
for several weeks.

INCREASE N
 GOLD PRODUCTION.

The director of the mint has just given to the public his final estimate of the gold producuon of the United States for the calendar year 1904. He places the amount at sS0, ,723. .vyy which was a gain of little more than S7.O0OvVO over 19Oo In reality this is not quite so much of an expansion a. would appear on the fact of the re turns, for the Cripple Creek strike cut down the output in that field for 1905 reducing Colorado's production s6,00O.- 600 from 1902 The increase in the past few years has been comparatively slight The countrys output was s7s.OOO,OOO for 1900. $7S,O:O,OOO for 1901, ssO,O0O.OOO for 1902, s75,OOO,OOO for 1903, and little less than $S1, ,JJO,- 900 for 1904
 But 1905 is likely to make consid- erabel gain over 1904 Both Colorado and California, the first and the sec ond. respectively, of the gold fields of tLC OLltCu oLdACSs III punt Ol pAOhuNb iveness, are doing better than they did last year. Nevada's s 100000 of 1904 will probably be more than doubled in 1905 The Tonopah, Goldfeld, Bull frog, Rhyolite and other of the new gold camps in the southern end of the state are making returns from month to month which indicate a yield for the whole state of about s7.0C0,O00 this year and it may go to s8,00G,0G0 CT & 900 900. Nome also is producing at the rate of SlO.Vv 900 ,His year, which is $3.0O0, 900 in excess of the entire Alaskan yield of 1904.
 Nevertheless the United States will hold the second instead of the first place among the gold-producing coun- tries in 1905. The Rand, which is TransvaaPs gold field. is ahead of the
 United States thus far this year, and may be relied on toJegnthen it's lead
 in 1906. There is a reasonable cer- tainty that the Rand's production for
 1905 will pass the s10O,O0O,000 mark,
 while the United States yield is not likely to go far beyond $9O,000,000 or
 $92, ,O00, 900. The worlds output, which
 was s35O OO0, 900 for 1904, will go up to s4OO. 1000 900 in 1905, and may be
 several millions ahead of that mark
 For the immediate future at least the
 worlds gold production is likely tc
 fully meet its demands.

 "Alamogordo to keep her railroad shops? Why. certainly. Even straws show which way the wind blows. The hospital is to remain here. In fact, a brick structure is to go up for hospital services The same reason for placing the big hospital here applies to main taining the shops here The Southern Pacific started in to build big hospi- tai in Fl Paso about two years ago but abandoned the plan altogether af ter spending s13.000 on the grounds and foundation. and now the property is for sale at a bargain Why did they do so?

TAFT AND THE
 STANDPATTERs.

The standpatters have notice that Secretary of War Taft is coming back with bill in his pocket for the admis- sion to the United States of Philippine products free of duty.
 He will have in this enterprise the good will of the tobacco trust, which wants all the free tobacco, and of the sugar trust. which wants all the free raw sugar. and maybe of the cordage trust. which likes to make protected :wine and rope cut of unprotected fibers.
 Maybe nobody will say a word about free manufactured sugar or free binder twine. or reduced duties on cigars while Mir Taft is running in his free raw material; and maybe somebody will.
 MT. Secretary Shaw. also, is reputed to have a few recommendations to offer congress concerning countervail- ing duties on bounty sugar; and the reciprocity men will rise to make a few brief remarks.
 And yet the standpatters say that the Fifty-ninth Congress is not going to talk tariff

JAPAN LEANS TOWARD AMERICA.

By a clause in the treaty of Ports mouth an American is to be a member of the commission which is to mark out the boundary of Sakhalin island which is to separate the Russian quar- ter from the Japanese. The other members of the commission are to bel a Japanese, a Russian and a French man. The American ambassador isl to hand to the czar Japan's ratifica tion of the peace treaty while the French representative at Tokio is toI render this service for Russia. Rus sia's ally oficiates in each case for her, while Japan's ally, England, is absent, and her place is taken by the United States.
 All this was premeditated, says the Globe-Democrat It is no accident that Japan chooses Americans instead of Englishmen for the delicate service which she wants performed. England, of course, was consulted in the selec tion. The British foreign office, as well as the Washington authorities, knew beforehand the choice which was to be made. Presumably it is agreeable or all hands It is uncer- tain whether the initiative in the sub stitution of Americans for Englishmen came from Tokio or London. No move in the matter could have emanated from Washington. The service, nev- ertheless will be performed unhesitat- ingly. The American will be on hand in each case.
 This news is an effective common, tary in the assumption that the riot ings in Tokio are a menace to Japan's S relations with the United States. Ja pan was never more friendly with this country than it is at this moment We have shown our regard for Japan in many concrete ways recently, and that country reciprocates the feeling The disturbances at the Japanese cap ital will not affect the situation for us in the Orient in the slightest degree Japan needs the friendship of the United States in this crisis as much as she ever did at any period in hel history She is the object of jealousy all over E-IrOpe except in England Her work If recuperation and develop ment will be hampered by continental Europe whenever that region has the opportunity, and dares to show it

A NEW IOWA IDEA.

When Secretary Shaw gets to rec, ommending tariff revision" the Amer ican consumer will clap both hands to his pocket, for the revision" will likely have a string to it connected with the regular enterprise suitable to the privileged interests, of taking the consumers money away from him.
 It will probably have a resemblance to the sliding scale" or maximum and minimum" tariff device proposed by the Illinois standpat statesman. the same being a tariff schedule which starts at the bottom and slips up to the top while the consumer is not watching.
 But it is curious and interesting toI hear Messrs. Shaw. Cullom and others of the old guard talking about revising the tariff It will be even more so dur ing the long session of Congress. when the reciprocity and real tariff-reform wing of the party can contribute. when the Democrats can offer a few sugges- tions and when the force of President Roosevelt is, thrown to one side of the issue. Something more than talk will be heard then. Something will drop. and it is very likely to be the Dingley tariff
 Secretary Shaw and the many old style standpat politicians who are at home mending their fences-and hence are obliged to say something or other about the tariff-are making things very interesting in the interim, which is possibly the last O. Cneir lease of life, and are doing much to in sure the result in I9O6.-RepubIican.

wonderful Mto-Alr Exploit Of RTChing
 an Aerial Abyss.
 The feat is most certainly an ex- traordinary one When it was first presented in Paris it immediately be- came the subject of talk throughout the city and was pronounced in that birthplace of surprises as the most novel, dangerous and thrilling ever seen. The marvellous feat, while one of many new ones presented this sea son by the Barnum & Bailey Greatest Show on Earth, is quite different in it's character from all others. It is far and beyond a greater act than looping-the-loOp which fascinated the public when it was presented in New York, for whereas in the latter the he roic artist makes a circuit of the loop at lightning speed, in this newest and most fearful exploit the rider flies on his bicycle through space a distance of forty odd feet, the only support of his wheel teing the air itself. For, as the name implies, there is a wide abyss, which yawning gulf the daring operator has to pass over. He first dashes nearly down 6 precipitOus plane, gathering awful momentum as he descends, and in ! sufficient quantity to cause him to fly across it and reach opposite si6e when whizzing with meteOric speed he safely finishes the course and dashes to the opposite side.
 The performance of the Barnum & Bailey Greatest Show on Earth this season begin with a marvelously beau | tiful and picturesque prelude which purports to be a reproduction of the
