Born in Rhode Island 46 years ago,
Judge Ryan came to Oregon in his
2lst year and soon became recognized
throughout the state as an active tire
less worker in the promotion of all

In an interview Judge Ryan says
II believe that my record as public
officer of my city and county goes to
prove that if / am elected that every
duty required Of the state treasurer
will be performed in an efficient and
economical manner. l believe that
interest on state funds should belong
to the state and thu the state treasur-
er should be prohibited from speculat-
ing with the funds of the state, either
for gain for self or in the interests of
banks or other monied institutions,
receiving for his services the salary
allowed him by law; being neither a
president, cashier or stockholder in
any bank, shall use my best efforts
to conduct the Office in strict confor-
nifty with the laws of the state, and
not discriminate in the interests of
any institution or person. -

cations as he has paid off county

Thou shalt not take up thy posi-
tion in the center of the cage when
decending or ascending the shaft,
neither shalt thou appropriate in
thy person more room than the
law allows, for thou are but of lit
tie consequence among a whole
cage load of men, no matter what
thou thinkest to the contrary.
Thou shalt not hesitate on the
station, or smoke thy pipe and talk
politics with the pumpman for ver-
lily the shift-boss might suddenly
appear, and heaven help thee if he
findeth the chutes empty.
Nv
Thou shalt not mix waste with
the ore, neither shalt thou mix ore
with the waste thou nor thy part
ner nor the mucker within thy
drift, for surely as thou doest these
things the mine will stop paying
dividends and thy name will be
mud over the length and breath
of the camp.
Thou shalt not eat onions when
going ON shift, even though they
be as cheap as real estate in Cliff
ton, unless thy partner partici-
pated likewise, for that bulbous
root exciteth bad feelings in the
heart of the total abstainer, and
causeth the interior of mine to

Thou shalt not address the boss
by his Christian name, neither
shalt thou contradict him when
thou knowest that he is lying, but
thou shalt meekly say Yes or
NO to all that he suggests; and
laugh when he laughs and keep on
laughing when he relateth story,
even though it be older than thy
grandmother.
Thou shalt not steal thy neigh
boris mops, nor his picks nor his
drills; neither shalt thou carry
away on thy person or in thy
lunch basket low-grade ore from
the mine for thou wilt find it will
take a life time to obtain mill

Thou shalt not have an option

THE WESTERN PA
CIFIC is ABOUT
READY TO BE-
GIN.
BY the Middle of April
the Graders Will be
at Work at Win
nemucca.

The Western Pacific is about
ready now to commence actual
construction on its line through
Nevada. 1t is said that the first
work will be done in Elko county.
By the middle of April it is now
the intention to put a large force
of graders to work at Winnemucca
and grade both ways from this
point The grade will be made
out across the Black Rock desert
from Winnemucca to Round Hole
in Washoe county. There is no
very heavy work to be done on
that piece of road, the line of sur
vey being over a comparatively
level section. After the grading
is done between Round Hole and
a point near Palisade, in Eureka
county, construction trains will be
put on aud track laying pushed as
rapidly as possible, the company
hoping to have that part of its line
completed by this fall.
Construction tents have been
shipped here and other points
along the line, and il is said that
men will be put on as fast AS they
eau be obtained. 1t is the com.
pany's iatention to employ white
labor only where it can be had.
The story of the Western Pacific
having bought the Reno street
railway line is all in the air; like
wise the bonding of the Neasham
ranch near the town of Sparks.
While the. Western Pacific will
build branch line into Reno, its
first ambition is to get a trunk
line finished connecting the two
oceans, that it may enjoy its share
of the traffic with the Orient.
That accomplished, it will look to
Its connection advantages.
The Western Pacific has large
and comprehensive plan of opera
tion, and if the people will be
little patient the company will dem
onstrate to nicely "that all
things comes to him who waits. >

Something Good,
Bullion Mines.

There is no question but leasers
have made the mines of Southern
Nevada for where there WAS COM
paratively little in sight, practical,
experienced miners, did not hesi-
tate to act on their own judgment
and take blocks of ground on
claims where there was absolutely
no showing whatever in sight.
They were satisfied that the for
nation and other conditions were
favorable and were perfectly will
ing to risk their time and money
in exploiting the lodes. And as a
result, enormous shoots were ex-
posed, carrying wonderful values
and these leasers made millions of
dollars for themselves and opened
up and developed many mines
which the owners were either too
poor to develop or else lacked con-
fidence sufficient to warrant them
in doing the work. In fact, there
is not a new camp in the State
which has not been brought to the
producing stage by leasers and in
return they have become very rich.
Tonopah, Goldfield, Bullfrog Man.
haitian and other camps illustrate
the force of this position, and it is
not too much to say that these
camps were absolutely brought to
their present productive stage by
the work of leasers, and leasers
alone.
And in this connection may be
noted a good field for leasers-
Bullion district, twenty-five miles
south Invest of Battle Mountain.
Abe Wise and r. NJ. Horton are
in this city from Bullion and dis
play some of the handsomest and
richest specimens, showing free
gold which we have ever seen that
were taken from the Dutch Oven
mine, in Bullion district. The ore
is certainly very rich and there is
said to be plenty more In the mine.
Mr.. Wise states that he will lease
blocks of ground in this mine and
guarantee the leaser to find alb
solutely on the surface ore which
goes not less than s. TO $40, and
perhaps higher. And around this
property is several shipping mines,
some with considerable ore sacked,
on the dump, ready for shipment.
The Bullion district is coming
to the front, and it appears to be
very desirable field for leasers,
and we have no doubt their re-
suits would be satisfactory.-Ren

frequently asked all over the State
of Nevada. His proper place at

Washington, ID. G. 1t is claimed
that he has not been seen there

know where he is. Measures have

which vitality effect the interests of
Nevada. They were lost for want
of any one there to explain their
intent.

THE LODGE.



In Many Towns 1t Has Become the
Great Social Center.
The lodge has become the social cen
ter of many a town. 1t Is so to O
greater degree perhaps in the west
than in the east. On the plains dis
tances between population centers are
greater, the ties of old family acquaint
ance are lacking, the fraternal order II
the one thing that knows no barrier OF
wealth or position. The fact that many
of the orders admit men and women tc
their membership on the same terms
adds to the strength of the social
claim; 1t also brings about odd situa-
tions.

This very equality brings about a
comradeship that in the newer commu-
mites makes easier the ways of life.
You have an employee in your office or
store. He works with his coat off, and
through the day you consider him but
little. You do not ask his opinion or
defer to his judgment. But on lodge
night when you enter the portals-a

to the second floor of an unpainted
