mentioned the other day that
the Pullman company had de-
cided to decline to obey the
interstate rate law, taking the
ground that it was not a COM
mon carrier, but a hotel COM
pany. This knocker for the
government seems likely to
come home again to the COM
pany in an amusing way. 1t is
said now that if any such as
sumption is sanctioned, then
the Pullman concern will at
once be brought under the
hotel law and will have to keep
a register of all guests lodged,
to provide safes for their val
uables, and to have all doors to
open outward. We cannot see,
too, why the company would
not be compelled to take out a
liquor license in every town
that its cars ran through. That
would make things interesting
and be something like the ia
! nous evasion by which the fry
ing pan was escaped.

RICHARD IN ROLE
OF PEACEMAKER
big Tex" Is Going to GoIdfield
Where He Will EndeavOr to
Settle the Strike

Having inspected his mining proper
ties here, and after arranging the final
details for the opening of the new
Northern hotel, G. l.. Richard, other
wise known as big Tex" will leave
Ely tomorrow for Goldfield.
Mr.. Rickard is a modest man and he
failed to mention, in telling OF his plans,
the business that calls him to Goldheld
He has large mining interests there
and it was assumed that he intended
merely to "drop in" to see how things
were going.
1t transpres, however, that big
Tex" has much more important bust
ness in Goldfeld than the footing up
of accounts. According to personal
friend, Mr.. Rickard is greatly perturbea
over the labor situation in the southern
camp. He will, this friend stated, ex-
ert his influence in an effort to b.
about a settlement of the strike.
"Of course I'm interested in t..5
labor trouble at Goldfield,' Mr.. Rickafd
said when questioned on this point.
"But that does not mean that | have
the ability to.effect settlement, much
as | would like to possess it. Never
theless, if l can do anything to end the
trouble certainly shall not let the
opportunity go by. The situation at
Goldfeld is menace to the best inter
ests of the town and to the welfare OF
all parties concerned in the strike. |
am hopeful that common sense will
prevail and that a speedy settlement
may be made. .
Mr. Rickard assumes the role of
peacemakcr very gracefully. He is a
mild hammered man who makes friends
readily, who believes in the square
deal" and is not afraid to speak out.
He is popular among allclasses at Gold
field and would, it is believed, make a
good arbitrator.

Sloppy Weather Causes
Work on Sidewalks

The sloppy weather during the past
few days has had one good effect. Bu-
siness men are rushing the work upon
the sidewalks in front of their places.
Considerable work on this liue was done
yesterday, and if the pace keeps up,
pedestrian can hope to traverse Ault-
man street from one end to the other
without getting wet feet. AS things
are, it is almost impossible to keep dry
shod owing to the mud resulting from
this temporary touch of spring weather
At the Northern hotel yesterday
workmen succeeded in putting in side
walks on the Aultman and Murry
street sides of the building, and another
force of workers extended the sidewalk
on the north side Of Aultman street
across Murry street between the Capt.
tai aud the Palace saloons.
Property owners IN other parts of
town also did considerable work upon
the sidewalks.

COMING TO ELY
Rev. DR.. Hunting Of Salt Lake to

At last Ely is to have resident min
ister of the Gospel, assurances to this
effect having been received yesterday
by wire from Salt Lake.
In telegram dated from Zion Rev.
G. C. Hunting, of Salt Lake, stated
that he would reach Ely in time to hold
services next Sunday morning and even
ing in Good Time Club Hall, Mr..
Hunting is the clergyman chosen by
Bishop John F. Spaulding, of Salt Lake,
as rector of the Episcopal church in Ely
and it may be that he will remain here
on this visit until the church is COM
pleted.
To the ladies' of the Sunday School
association, belongs the credit for max
ing possible the building of the new
church. They have worked diligently
for several years and at last are to be
rewarded.
When the Episcopal church is COM
pleted Ely will have two religious
edifices, the first one erected being the
Sacred Heart Chapel at Hayes Hark.

will visit the Veteran tunnel and the

the miners engaged upon the develop
ment work, and may go to the proper

"My trip possesses no significance, p"
said Mr.. Yeatman, at the Hayes Park
hotel, last night. q am here merely
to keep myself informed concerning the
work that is being done.

Supt. Cartwrieht's Resignation and
Other Complications May
Keep School Closed.
Two TRUSTEES "QUlT !"
As No Teacher Has Been Appointed
the Holiday Vacation May
Be Extended.

There is a tangle in the affairs of
the public school which may result in
the extension of the Christmas vaca-
tion for week or more.
No successor has been appointed to
fill the position of Superintendent Cart
wright, who resigned to attend to the
duties of Justice of the Peace, to which
office he was elected at the last election
After Mr.. Cartwright had turned in
his resignation, two members of the
Board of School Trustees retired, leav
ing one member upon the board. The
trustees who resigned were DR.. r. H..
Richardson and J. B. Simpson. The
remaining member is A. Mcdonald, the
blacksmith. Mr.. Mcdonald will not APP
point new School Superintendent, say
ing that he fears that the new members
may not approve his selection when
they enter office. District Attorney
Walker will not appoint successors for
DR.. Richardson and Mr.. Simpson, say
ing that he will leave the matter to his
successor, Mr.. Eddy.
Mr.. Eddy will enter office on January
7th, after the close of the Christmas
school vacation.
Even if his first move should be the
appointing of new school trustees
after assuming his duties, it will take
time for the board of school trustees
to meet, and more time for the newly
appointed school superintendent to get
here. This will mean lot of delay,
and the children of Ely will haye time
to enjoy their Christmas toys before
the school bell rings again unless some
action is taken;to end the present dead
lock.

WILL CUT ICE:
ON ARGUS LAKE
Ely Men Lease Comins Ranch Water
to Supply Camp With Chilly
Nuggets in Summer.

The Ely Ice company has been
formed. This much-needed concern
was organized by X. c. Davis, the con
tractor; d. c. Mcdonald and John
Magnuson, mining men, and j. II. Cor
don of the Eccles Lumber company.
They have leased the Argus lake, on
the Comns ranch, from Messrs. David
Keith and Thomas Kearns, the Salt
Lake capitalists, who some time ago
purchased the property as a smelter
site for treating the ore from the Nc
Donad-Ely mines.
An cehouse will at once be put up,
under the direction of K c. Davis, and
ice cutting will begin about January
18TH The ice is now twelve inches
thick upon the lake, but the men who
are interested in the venture do not
care to begin cutting until it is fifteen
inches thick. 1t is intended to cut
enough ice to supply the camp during
the summer.
The company has lease for this sea-
son only upon Argus lake, as Messrs.
Keith and Kearns may next spring de-
sire to commence work upon their pro-
jected smelter. 1t is probable, how
ever, that the company will remain
permanently in the business. If it is
unable to continue the cutting of ma
tural ice next winter it will probably
