Your Hunts Cure is beyond doubt the most remarkable remedy for skin diseases ever formulated. For eight years I have suffered almost constant ly from itching trouble the doctors called Eczema. My skin was on fire, but less than one box of Hunts Cure quenched that fire
 Many of my friends have since used it on my recommendation. and it never fails. Where there's an itch rub it on. It does the work-that's all"

More Than Society Butterflies.

These are the days when women of national celebrity vie with each other in housewifely accomplishments. Mrs. Philander c. Knox has just dis patched to Mrs. Roosevelt a firkin of butter, made with her own hands, at the Valley Forge farm. Mrs. Roose- welt has sent delicious branded cher ries to her intimates, and to the Epis. copal Home for Old People in Wash ington.

Tricks of Smuqqiers.

Double-bottomed bottles and other vessels are common contrivances for smugglers. In order not to awaken suspicion they are usually filled with some beverage, beer or wine, and this is duly declared by the man in charge of the vehicle n which they are car ried. At the present time, however, the officers are never deceived by the double-bottomed bottles, nor, for that matter, by the hollow horse collar, which at one time was favorite dodge for the alcohol smuggler.

New Mining Damn.

Another district, 70 miles from Man
haitian, has placed itself on the map.
1t is known as Duluth and, although
only a week old, it has a population of
about 100. People are arriving every
every day and are stalking out claims.
A late arrival from the camp reports
that the pay is found in a big porphyry
dyke and that values as high as 50. 900
have been encountered. The gold is
perfectly free. Hal Mighels, one of
the principal owners in the Manhattan
Carson, was n of the first on the
ground. The new camp is situated only
a short distance from Stratford, the
camp that was struck several weeks
ago. At the latter place there is con-
siderable activity, one company en-
plOying Ia miners. The values there
are in the quartz, walled by limestone
and porphyry.

FOR AUDITOR

Under the proper heading in our
column of political announcements will
be e e that of w. M. Sawle, the
regular Republican nominee for Audi
tor of Nye county. Mr.. Sawle was
among the first corners to Tonopah so
in consequence he is we'll known. At
the last election he was elected by a
large majority to the Office of Justice of
the peace of Tonopah township and dis
charged the duties of that office in a
creditable manner until the pressure Of
private business affairs Che being heavi-
ly interested here) caused him to pre-
sent his resignation to the board of
commissioners. Upon his first arrival
here in the early days of the place, he
engaged in mining, a business in which
he was eminently successful, and has
since proved himself a shrewed fnan-
cier and man of affairs. He is a good
citizen and a scholar, and if elected will
make ar efficient officer.

FOR COUNTY TREASURER

We call the attention of our readers
in this issue to the political card of R.
F. Gilbert, III present county treas
urer, who his candidacy as
the regular Republican nominee for re-
election to that Office. He was a pio-
neer of Belmont where he was in bust
ness for many years and is an old-timer
of this town, having arrived here long
before the place had begun to put on
metropolitan airs, and has been one Of
US ever since. In 1902 he was elected
the office of county treasurer and re-
elected in 1904-a fact which the people
showed conclusively by their votes that
they were satisfied with his steward
ship. He is a true blue Republican, a
good citizen and an honest the
prerequisite to the proper discharge of
the duties of that important office.
That he will be elected by a large
majority there can be no question.

Death OF b. NJ. PearIman.

Ben. M. Pearlman, one of the pio-
neers of Tonopah, and who was famil-

brokers as the tom Lawson" of Tono-

berg in San Francisco last Tuesday.
The funeral took place from her resi-
dence on Thursday and the interment
was in the Home of Peace Cemetery.

many sterling traits Of character and
his death is mourned by a large circle
of friends in Tonopah. He leaves, be-

FOR

This week we publish the political
card of j.. j. Owens, announcing him.
self as the regular Democratic nominee
for sheriff of Nye county. AS Mr..
Owens has lived in Tonopah five years
and during that time has been identified
more or less in political circles (al-
though he has never before aspired to
office his name is familiar to most of
the people of this county. He was
born in Pennsylvania and has lived in
the State Of Nevada for IL years, first
locating at ~Tuscarora, where he worked
as a miner and afterward had charge of
a mine. Upon his arrival in Tonopah
he worked in the mines until about two
years ago when he branched out for
himself as a prospector. In 1904 he
was chairman of the Democratic
Central Committee and was for
long time a member of the Democratic
State Central Committee. Although
Owens is a Democrat and not of
political tribe, we will not hesitate
% say that he is true to Jeffersonian
principles and is a good, square man.

NO LONGER AN INFANT

We desire to commend highly our
contemporary, the Tonopah Daily Sun,
on its able editorial in connection with
the sewerage question. While not de-
string to detract one iota from their
stand taken in the interest of good
health, still we cannot but feel that
they have somewhat gotten the ''cart
before the horse" Under the existing
condition our sewerage system is under
the control of a private corporation.
The cost of connections as we'll as the
monthly toll are so high as to preclude
the possibility, in many instances, of
acquiring this blessing. Until the peo-
pie of Tonopah realize that the incor-
poration Of the town would be a dis
tinct advantage to them it will be
necessary for them to forego this as
we'll as other improvements under local
municipal control. Once Incorporated,
the town could take over the entire
system, at a fair market price, and
thereafter operate it at a rate which
would bring the of usuage within the
reach of all. The present sanitary o n
ditions are greatly to be deplored, but
it would certainly be an injustice to
arbitrarily compel all to use the system
at a grave hardship, when they are in
no way responsible for the high tariff.
Ii is nigh TIME that our town was duly
Incorporated. Tonopah has out grown
its infancy and is thoroughly ft-social-
ly, morally and fnancially-to be
weaned from the breast of county SUI
pervision. Launch it forth in the world
with an individuality of its own and the
destiny it will carve for itself will more
than surprise the greatest pessimist.

CAPES LYNCHING
B. K. Gillespie Leaves Town Con-
Cealed in Baggage Car

Considerable excitement was occa.
stoned in town last Tuesday night when
was brought to light the perfidious be-
havior of a local business man. B. X.
Gillespie, manager of a local automobile
garage, conspired in a most diabolical
manner, to destroy the peace and hap
piness existing between Oliver W.. Kay
and his young wife. Luckily the con-
spiracy was discovered and it is hoped
in time to prevent a permanent disrup-
ton of domestic affairs. Mr.. Kay, who
was a ~bookkeeper in the employ of the
Tonopah Lumber Company lately
learned of the terms of intimacy exist
ing between his wife and young Giles
pie and decided to put an end to it at
once. At this time Mrs. Kay was in
San Francisco on a visit. Mr.. Kay left
Tonopah on Sunday with the intention
of preventing his wife's return to
camp. She, however, got wind of his
trip and returned to town on Monday
night. He did not get back until Tues
day, when accompanied by his lawyer,
A. A. Siegfriedt, he called at his home.
Considerable excitement took place
during which several blows were struck.
Several complaints for assault were
filed in the local Justices court, which
have since been dismissed on account of
lack of prosecution. 1t is understood
that an amicable settlement has been
effected out of court. Mrs. Kay and
her husband r now in San Francisco.
where they will remain. Precautions
have been taken to protect the young
wife from further molestation on the
part of young Gillespie. The harrow
ing details of the interloper's action
from the inception of his cold blooded
plan to work ruination are best omitted.
From the time of his meeting with Mr..
Kay to the developments of last Tues
day his actions were fendishly methodi-
cal. The young wife, who is but Is
years old, has certainly been the victim
of a brute in human form. Expressions
of sympathy for MI. Kay are heard on
every hand. Gillespie escaped from
town on Tuesday night, concealed in a
baggage a Had he remained in
camp he certainly would have been
as the feeling against him was
so strong.

NICK KOSICH
FOUND GUILTY
The Proprietor Of the Combination
Saloon Fined Ten Dollars
and Costs

The shooting affray, which took place
early Sunday morning, eliminated last
Thursday morning in the justice court,
when Nick Kosich was fined by Judge
Brissell 500 and cost. This is the
minimum penalty. About 2 CLOCK last
Sunday morning Jack Tamblyn, a local
blacksmith, dropped into the Combina-
ton saloon, on Main street, just below
Oddie avenue, and attempted to borrow
$40 from the proprietor, Nick Kosich.
Kosich refused on the ground that he
carried very little cash over night and
could not spare it. Tamblyn claimed
that Kosich was under obligation to him
and should be willing to grant the ac-
commodation. For the reason already
given Kosich was obliged to refuse.
The blacksmith then became abusive,
finally striking Kosich in the face and
making a hasty exit. The proprietor
then secured a gun, which was about 20
feet away and fired two shots after his
fleeing a%ssailant, neither of which took
effect. Kosich was Immediately arrest
ed by Deputy Sheriffs johnson and Nc
Cormick, who were near by. He was
arraigned for trial Wednesday morning
IN the justice court. Alfred Needles a
local attorney, appeared for the defend
ant and District Attorney Will Pittman
appeared in the interest of the State.
In the course of the trial Kosich ad-
mitted firing the shot and claimed that
ne intended to kill Tamblyn. He stated
that had he had his own gun he would
have accomplished his purpose. During
the charge to the jury Lawyer Needles
and the District Attorney almost came
to blows. Pittman took violent excep-
ton to the way that Needles character
lied Tamblyn. Order was finally re-
stored and the case went to the jury.
After considerable wrangling the Jury
finally returned a verdict of Guilty Of
the m~isdemeanor of firing in the streets
of Tonopah, pistol shots, without sufi-
Gent Justification" Judge Brissell
ordered the prisoner to appear before
him on Thursday morning for sentence.
The prisoners counsel Immediately filed
notice of appeal on the ground of mis-
trial, claiming that the jury had not
been properly drawn in accordance with
the requirements of the statute. On
Thursday morning Kosich appeared be-
fore the justice and through his counsel
waived all objections stating that he
was ready to accept the sentence of the
court. Judge Brissell then announced
a fine of 500 with cost, which was
promptly paid.

OUR POPULATION

According to latest returns from the
registration Office of Nye county up tc
date, there are 1850 names registered
with several precincts yet to be heard
from. On the generally accepted basis
of five population to each voter the
result would give Nye county a popula-
ton of %, 500, which, if we are not mis-
informed, is the largest population Of
any county in the State. This certain
ly speaks well for the county and its
mineral resources when we consider
that not more than six years ago,
before the discovery of Tonopah, the
whole State polled only about 1900
votes, while Nye county had hardly a
sufficient number of citizens and tax
payers to maintain a county govern
ment. At the rate that new and sub
stantial mineral discoveries are being
made, together with the installation of
