.Puddy' Brings Back Bride.

Charles T. (Puddy) Grimes and his
dashing bride, nee Miss Lynette Nor
gan, arrived from their honeymoon
trip last Saturday evening and were
met at the depot by a host of friends,
showers of rice and a flock of old shoes.
The merry throng at one escorted
Puddy and his bride to the nearly
erected Grimes bungalow, but were
stopped en- route by the local brass
band, who, after seranading them
allowed the procession to move on its
way. Once at the Grimes mansion all
proceeded to make merry, and ere the
happy seranaders departed all wished
the groom and bride many happy years
of welded bliss. The BONANZA Joins
in the congratulations and we sincerely
hope their troubles will only be "smal
ones"

SUIT FOR $40, 900 DISMISSED


In our last issue we made a slight
mistake in the matter of u political
announcements, stating in the card
that C. P. Harrison was the regular
Republican nominee for Congressman
instead of Assent lyman. Mr.. Harri-
son is a good Republican, consequently
he like all honest Republicans don't
want to be boosted any higher than the
position to which he aspires the
BONANZA to the contrary n~otwithstand-
ing-from the aforesaid error as it
appeared in the paper. The fact of
the matter is, the Intelligent compos-
itorp was celebrating his birthday, the
proof reader was also on a "tare, the
devil set up the job, and, between
the three, "they played the devil. .
We executed the compositor but the
proof-reader and devil escaped and are
gone to the deuce knows where so Mr..
Harrison has withdrawn his suit for
$40, 600 damages which he had filed
against the BONANZA, as the devil
and proof-reader were very important
witnesses, and without them there
would not be sufficient evidence to
secure judgment. AS a result we
thank the good Lord for small favors
and big ones in proportion-to say
nothing of cur gratitude to Mr.. Harri'
son for withdrawing his suit.

Among the political announcement OF
candidates cards will be found in this
issue the one of the present incumbent
commissioner, Eugene Locke of Keyser
Springs, Railroad valley. Mr.. Locke,
whose term expires at New Years, was
elected in 1904 for the short term.
During his time in that office he has
become well acquainted with the wants
of the county and has ever striven in
his official capacity to serve the whole
county without reference to any party
or section, but to serve the interests OF
the people as a whole. No n can say
that he has v e gone back on his work.
Mr.. Locke has been in Nye county fol-
the past 80 years, coming here from
West Virginia, during that time he has
been identified as one of the largest
stock raisers in. the county and conse-
ouently one of u heaviest taxpayers.
He is a good man for the office he holds
so let's keep him there.

The Diadem Mining Company, operat-
ing a block on the Thanksgiving claim
of the Great Bend property, let a con-
tract last week for 100 feet of sinking.
The present depth of the shaft is 81 feet
and the owners believe that when the
contract is finished they will encounter
good values. A new hosting plant will
be installed shortly and the work of
opening UP the lease will be rushed
with all possible speed.

Already the one-story frame building
standing at the corner of Brougher
avenue and Summit street, has been
moved, to make way for the modern
structure to be erected by the Tonopah
Daily Sun. For the present the build
ing will be but one story, so built, how
ever, that one or two additional floors
may be added in the future. The new
home will be of concrete. The contract
for the work has been awarded to E.
E. Burdick, a local contractor, who
is excavating for the foundation.
