The scene at the Jewish hospital
was terrible. When the correspondent

walk from the gate to the door over

stained with blood. The dead and

spark of patriotism in his treast he was
nothing like his bray-, strong. b.oad-

Washington was born on Il plantation

1882 His honesty could NJ. be sxcelle.s,
as is proved by the story of the colt
and also that of the cherry tree. hich
every true American is fanri'iar with.
In boyhood he was drawer and more
daring than any of his companions and
when the boys played soldier they liked
to have Master George for a leader
At the age of eighteen he could sur
vey any piece of land given to him.
When he was 81 years of age. then a
brave athletic and manly for his years,
he was intrusted to carry dispatch
across the State of Ohio. He proved
himself TO be a great leader in the bat
ties that he fought In the Revolution.
When Washington was at the age of
II, his father died and later his brother
followed him. leaving the mansion at
Mt Vernon. where he spent his last
days. His life was devoted to his friends
and above all his country. while he could
have been at home leading a peacefur
and happy life with his wife. He had
no children. nobody called him father,
except the country he served SO faith
fully He was elected for the Presi-
dency twice and declined to run again,
and for that reason the after Presidents
would run but twice.
His life passed away at his home (Mt.
vernon) after he had published his
famous farewell address Countries all
over the world joined us in mourning
for the great man. His vault is at Mt.
Vernon, near the house.

CORRECT ON
RATE BILL
President HadIey Of Yale
Gives Ills Opinion on
the Subject

The Boston Evening Transcript pub
Hadley of Yale University or tile pres
sent status of the rate regulation con-
test in Washington. DIR. Hadley argues
that the proposition of the Hepburn bill
to make the decision OF the Interstate
Commerce Commission final in ali lues-
tions of fact, is illogical and impractic-
able He declares that similar plan
tried in England in the seventies did not
work and was finally repealed
He declares that the common law
gives the shipper more protection than
statutes, as was shown in the Chesa-
peake and Ohio coal case recently de-
cided by the Supreme Court. Yet in
spite of these considerations, President
Hadley expresses the belief that the
passage of the Hepburn bill would be
better than any compromise thus far
lggested. He says in part:
I'm the first place, if the railroad men
attempt to have the bill modified 1t will
BE regarded as a selfish effort to block
The wheels of legislation for their own
private interest. This is always blum
l~r From the standpoint of railroad
management alone. the good from pre-
venting the passage of the Hepburn bill
would not be nearly as great as the
harm which would come from assuming
an attitude of opposition The HeDurn
5in will not greatly hurt the railroads
Il anybody Is hurt by illusory attempts
o limit rights of appeal, it will be the
shipper Should the Hepburn bill be
passed in substantially the form In
which it comes from the House of Rep
resentatives there is a fair chance that
after a few years of unsuccessful opera
sion it may be repealed. But If COM
promise measure is adopted. nobody viii
know who Is responsible for the failure.
Each party will place the blame upon
the other Ten years hence we shall
see that we have accomplished nothing.
but we shall be totally unable to tell
hose fault it is"

Why THESE
BRINY TEARS
Reno Journal has an
Editorial on Shepherd.
ers Of Humboldt County

The Reno Journal has weighty edi-
torial on sheepherders. and particularly
Humboldt county sheepherders. An ed
itorial mind you, and don't overlook IT.
The article is as follows:
Humboldt county will prosecute the
man who killed sheepherder north OF
Winnemucca some days ago.
Humboldt county is exsravagant II
this sor. OF thing keeps OH no one Will
go there to commit murder. Fancy, a
county prosecuting some poor devil
merely because he killed a sheepherder.
Positively ridiculous, The only extern
uating circumstances Is that the man
who did the killing was sheepher -er.
too.
BY the way. why sheepherder?' .e
have often asked ourselves the question.
and yet here we find orrself using the
word. Why Is a man who tends his
fiocks in the Pyrenees or the Grampians
a shepherd and in the Sierra Nevada a
"sheepherder?'' The two men follow the
same occupation. and yet we draw dis
tinction In the name. using the ugly,
unwieldly and cumbersome ''sheepherd-
er. when shepherd" Is the proper term.
or course the Nevada article is differ
ent from the shepherd OF the old world
the shepherd OF poetry. painting and
comic opera. One would hardly picture
him as an ardent lover. with ribbons
about his knees. playing upon the pipes.
and weaving madrigals to a lovely mis-
tress The Nevada shepherd-for so we
henceforth insist on calling him-is bet
ter acquainted with bailing ropes than
ribbons. the only pipe he knows is
corncob or a clay. and he Is more de-
voted to brandy than beauty.
Nevertheless. he is a shepherd. and
We are going to have him one II we
have to mention him every day.

check the flames which were breaking
into the residence section when checked
The alarm was sent In at o'clock in
the evening and within a short time the
entire town was fighting the fire. Goods
were dragged from the doomed struct-
ures as rapidly as possible. and this kept
down the total loss which win not reach

The burned district is on the south side
of the main street in the eastern part
of the village and all OF the destroyed
buildings were frame. They will be re-
built at once with more imposing struct-
ures.
At no time was communication shut
or by the fire. The telegraph and tele-
phone offices escaped uninjured.
The complete list of losses are the fol-
lowing:
