OUTSIDERS GETTING OUR TRADE.

The great mineral discoveries in
Southern Nevada which has resulted
in so much added population AMI
wealth is not beneftting Western Ne
vada as it should. ALREADY the trade
Of that rich section is going mostly
to Los Angeles and Salt Lake.
There are two reasons for this. The
two cities mentioned are pushing their
drumers and transportation lines into
Nye and Esmeralda counties and bid
ding for the trade. They sent their
agents in just after Reno paper had
been agitating the epidemic scare and
they succeeded in easily getting the
bulk of the business. The people
Of Tonopah and Goldield are very
bitter against Reno for the harm done
them by the circulation of exaggerated
reports regarding the health condit-
ions of those localities.
They estimate that these reports
have cost them hundred of thousands
of dollars and that it will require some
time to live down these stories and
fully recover from the blow.
Naturally towns like Columbus and
Bullfrog and other mining camps
which are springing up in Southern
Nevada make common cause with
Tonopah and Goldfields for the same
men who have pushed the two first
named camps to the front as wealth
producers are the men who are MAX
ing the new discoveries and the ma
iority have made a compact to buy
nothing of Weastern Nevada mer-
chants
The Appeal. belives this to be an
error of Judgment for it is hardly
fair to make innocent people suffer
in this respect.
Something should be done to get
back this trade and to bring about
resumption Of the old time cordial
business and social relations previ-
ously existing between the people
of Weastern Nevada and the men wh1
are handling most of the business Oi
the new and prosperous mining camps
1t is pity and Improbable all
around for any section of Nevada tc
be arrayed against any other section
Sagebrushers should hang together
and state pride should be stronger
than sectional hatred.
There is to be a five day Carnival
at Reno on the occasion of celebrating
the glorious Fourth and it might no,
be bad idea to have Nye and Esme-
aida Counties join with Washoe i,
making the grandest celebration tina
the State ever saw, on that day.
Ormsby County, who has neve
really anything to do with the feut
between these two sections will b
on hand to act in the pleasant capacit,
of peacemaker on that occasion.
Come gentlemen get in and preparr
to drill for the best interests of tbs
whole State The trade of Nevada
should not be transferred to Other
States.

LA TOILETTE AN ENIGMA.
State Attorney General Renders Opin-
ion on Legislative Function.

Special Dispatch TO The Star.
MADISON, Wis, December 2-Attorney
General Sturdevant has given an opinion
that Gov. La Toilette can decline the United
States senatorshp, and the legislature Will
have to elect successor If he does. He
says the call for the special session is broad
enough. In states where governors have
made appointments to fill vacancies the
legislature was not in session. This adds
another mysterious step to the governors
procedure in accepting or declining the sem
atorship. What the governors idea was
in securing this decision Is hard to fathom.

that the subject of insurance would be
given serious attention at the special ses-
sion. Many policy holders have become
alarmed uselessly, perhaps" he said, by
the disclosures In the east, and they are

thrown on. 1t is altogether likely that an
investigation Of the big moneyed interests

GREAT BRITAIN AND GERMANY.
Notable Speech at London Banquet by
German Ambassador.

LONDON, December 2-An important
speech on the relations between Great
Britain and Germany was delivered tonight
by the German ambassador. Count Wolff
Metternich. who was the chief guest ct
a dinner at the Lyceum Club. presided
over by Lady Aberdeen. The ambassador
said:
eve have never had serious quarrel
with England in the long course of our
history and sincerely trust we never shall.
A shadow unfortunately, has fellen over
the two nations in the last few years,
the cause for which it is not difficult to
discover by those who read what daily is
printed. The fact that / your guest
this evening is a welcome proof that the
forces at work are DESTROYS OF dispelllng
that shadow Of enmfty.
1.-THE overwhelming ajority of English
men and Germans wish a life of peace
and harmony and regard the idea of a seri
Gus quarrel as a piece of criminal folly.
There Is no real cause for antagonism,
commercial or otherwise, it is only an at
mosphere of i'll feeling artificaliy created.
1.-The German government will greet with
sincere satisfaction any movement tending
to further good relations and will gladly
respond to any friendly demonstration in
England.

RUCTION AMONG ATHLETES.
Chicago Association Will Not Send
Team East for Track Meet

CHICAGO, December 2.-Eyerett G.
Brown, chairman of the athletic committee
of the Chicago Athletic Association, an
aounced today that the Chicago organiza-
ton would not send team to the track
meet of the National A A next year
Mr. Brown gave as one reason for declin-
ing TO send the team, the refusal of the
New York Athletic Club to compete last
year after giving assurance that 1t would
do so, and inducing the Chicago Athletic
Association to gather team to meet the
New York man
Mr.. Brown declared that even though the
Chicago association should enter a team
they would not feel certain that the New
York organization would not decline the
issue for the second time. The action of
the National A. A. Z. in placing the At
lantic Association IN the metropolitan dis
trict, which before this action was the
largest district in the A. A u, was ac-
cording 10 Mr.. Brown. apparently taken at
the request of the New York Athletic Club
in order to give that organization a larger
field from which TO draw athletes
The recent action of the western college
conference in prohibiting college athletes
from competing for athletic clubs is also
a reason why no team with be sent to the
meet from the Chicago Athletic Associa-
ton.

INDIANA VILLAGE AROUSED
Over Disappearance of Wealthy but
Eccentric Swede,

CHICAGO. December 2.-Startling events
which have followed the mysterious disap..
pearance Of John A. Thompson, a wealthy
but eccentric Swede, have aroused the vii
Iage of Hobart. Ind, to a state of high ex-
element When Marshal Fred Busse and
Trustee Alvin Wilde yesterday went to
Thompsons bachelor house on the outskirts
of Lake Station they had narrow escapes
from being blown up by dynamite
A woman named Helen Fritche held a
mortgage on the Thompson house which
he declined to satisfy. Last week she deter
mined to foreclose and notified her agent,
Charles Seydel. Seydel met Thompson in
Hobart and told him of Mrs. Fritche's de-
termination. Thompson remarked: well,
there will be a hot welcome for you when
you come For over week Thompson
and the blinds drawn
Wilde and Marshal Busse went to the
farmhouse to investigate. Both officials
were OF the opinion that Thompson had
killed himself. Busse was about to break
In the front door, when. he says, he was
seized with an intuition to get away from
the door. Going to a side window the men
climbed cautiously into the house. They
were unable to find a trace of Thompson,
but in the hall leading to the front door
was found pile of dynamite, of which
there were several pounds. 1t was con-
nected with the front door by wire fuse
to an electric battery SO that an intruder
would have exploded the mass of explosive.
Black powder was strewn in every room
In the house and wires led from the frons
door to the explosive In all directions. Over
every door from the outside, In both house
and barn. were suspended heavy weights,
designed to fail If the door was opened.
