Worse in New York.

WofaG ~ N1W NoiNs
The fight OF the Democratic party in
New York is exceedingly bad and
without the vote of New York the
Democratic party can do nothing In
New York the waring elements are at
each others throats II is the battle-
ground where the radicals and con-
servatives are pitted against each
other The radicals are divided be-
tween the Hearst and Bryan men. The
former seems sure TO win what viii be
an empty honor-the Endorsement Of
his candidacy for governor by the COM
ling Democratic state convention at
Buffalo. His first nomination will be
at the hands Of the Independence Lea
que of which he Is the leading spirit,
Y The Bryan men are so incensed against
Hearst that they threaten to nominate
congressman Sulzer for governor
District Attorney jerome has already
threatened to enter the field as an
independent candidate for governor II
tho Democrats convention indorsed
Hearsts candidacy.
There Is, therefore. the prospect OF
triangular fight among the Democrats.
while the Republicans will be united on
one candidate.
What chance will the Democrats
have in New York?
Instead Of the situation improving
for the Democrats, Il threatens 10 grow
worse It will grow worse just as long
as Hearst. like an untamed beast is
prowling around seeking what he can
tear down.
And without New York in a presi-
Dental contest what hope can the
Democrats have Of electing their can
dldate for president? At nine presi-
dentail elections the result was deter
mined, or should have been determined,
lby the electoral votes of the State Of
New York. OF no other state IN the
Union can this be said. On almost all
of those nine occasions, when the ele-
ctorial vote Of the Empire Common
wealth proved decisive, the course pur-
sued by the state was determined TO a
very large extent by tho city nf New
York. II was the overthrow Of the

Southern Pacific New Yosemite
Route.

The Southern Pacific announces that
new service to the Yosemite Valley in
connection with the Yosemite valley rail-
road company, will begin about March
first next.
The eighty-mile stage ride will be done
away with. The new line extends from
MERGED Falls to the boundary of Yosem-
lite National Park, twelve miles from the

pike, either an automobile or stage line
will convey passengers quickly to the

hours via the Southern Pacific, the Yo-
semitic Valley road line and the new
turnpike company
Frank A. Miller, proprietor of the Glen
wood hotel, Riverside, has secured from
the Department of the Interior the ex-
elusive privilege of building and operat-
ing hotels in the valley, and will expend
three million dollars i'll the work The
hotels are to be of stone and to built
to conform i'll interior and exterior fur
nishings to the surroundings. Plans are
now being made, and i'll the main, will
conform to the great stone castles of
Europe i'll design; study of which is now
being made for that purpose. President
Roosevelt has taken strong personal
interest i'll the matter and expressed his
approval of the project. The idea of the
new hotels has been approved to the In
terror Department by DR.. David Starr
Jordan, DIR. Benjamin Idle Wheeler, DIR.

know the valley.
The round trip fare from MERGED to
the floor of the valley will not exceed
$3.50.
The Yosemite Valley railway is a
standard gauge modern road of seventy
pound steel rails, and steel bridges and
will be rock ballasted and dustless. 1t
not only makes the valley accessible, but
will open rich mining and lumber dis

Will Probably Contest.

The Board of County Commissioners
at its last meeting threw out the returns
from Churchill precinct when canvassing
the vote on the grounds that said re-
turns were sent in by mail instead of by
carrier This action will have the effect
of unseating l. A. Strosnider as one of
the Board-elect. MIR. Strosnider won by
a majority of three and the throwing out
of the Churchill precinct returns gives
Mr.. Turner, his opponent and present
incumbent, a majority of two. We are
informed that Mr. Strosnider will con-
test the seat of Commissioner, claiming
that there was no fraud attempted or
shown in sending the returns by mail,
and that it is within the provision of the
law to send returns that way from small
precincts. 1t has been done several
times before in Lyon county and the
votes counted 1t is pretty hard work
to disfrancliise bunch of voters i'll a
precinct unless fraud is proven.

The Fuel Scarcity.

In nearly all parts of Nevada there is a
scarcity of fuel, and Yerington is no ex-
ception. Parties here who ordered coal
several months ago have not yet received
It and cannot tell when it will arrive.
There is not an overabundant supply of
wood in the town, and nut pine is now
selling for Sl2 per cord. The trouble in
getting the coal seems to be with the
railroad company, which claims a short
age of cars. Coal costs about slS50 per
ton laid down at Yerington.
