Peace Meeting.

ta'tN N~N
A very interesting Peace meet
ing. was held in the Stake Taber-
nacle on Monday evening. The
brass band was in attendance
and their playing was very much
appreciated. A resolution was
adopted obligating all that were
present to participate annually
in such a demonstration and to
pledge themselves to exert their
influence in the interest OF peace
in all the world. 1t seems par
ticularly fitting that, IN these
days, when the worlds interests
are becoming SO interviewer and
unified and yet whenpolitical ag-
prandizement and national ag-
eressiveness are bringing about
such strained relations among
nations, that the people OF the
world make known to their rul-
ers and their representatives,
that they are for peace; Peace
first. last, and all the time. The
voice of the people cannot be too
loud nor too emphatic on this
,,ronosition. Beneath the sur
face of what now seems an era
of peace, one can hear, If he will
but listen carefully, the voice OF
discomfort, of unrest, and OF
rumblings of war among the ma
tions. We can hope for much
good to come to the cause OF
neace from these demonstrators
that are held throughout the
United States and we hope that
all other nations will fall in line
and hold similar meetings annu-
allv or oftener. We may look
forward, too, we think with
much hope for good to come out
OF the meeting of the conference
of the Hague in September.
1t looks now. that this will
eventually become great
factor IN establishing peace and
Just dealings among the nations;
that it will be an ever open
court to which the difficulties OF
nations may be safely taken and
equitably adjudicated. Recent
overtures on the part OF the
Gar of Russia to his own peo.
pie granting them a const1tu-
tional government and other
remediatory concessions are
events of great significance. Ir
view of the light that has come
to him, he will not hold out
longer but will take an active
part in future conferences, There
rs a movement on foot now tc
entrust to this court the adjust
ment not only of difficulties
among nations, but also the
difficulties between a nation ant
it's own dependencies. All sue
cess to the Hague Tribunal and
all efforts for the establishment
of peace among the nations.

HAWAII ISLAND
SCHOOL MATTERS

Olaa district is on the boom and the
place is apparently repopulating. In
spector King, who has charge of school
work on Hawaii, came down on the
Enterprise yesterday feeling encourag-
ed over the prospects.
1.-The people seem to be pleased with
the treatment accorded them by Man
ager Watt he remarked, and it is
fairly impossible to secure an acre of
land to cultivate. Twelve Mile school,
with a record of GA pupils last year,
has a membership roll of 153 this sea-
son and the school at Mountain View
pupils are the children of Hawaiian,
Portuguese, Porto Ricans and japanese
who are laborers or men who have Gull
tivation contracts with Olaa. The
school at % miles was abandoned for
the reason that there were too few
pupils there. 1t was a mistake to have
placed it in that locality.
The High School in Hilo will be open
in January, I think, and will have a
good attendance. The grammar school
grade, which will be in the same build
ing, will have more than one hundred
pupils. Children are now coming from
Keaau and from Papaikou which is a
healthy sign
Mr. King is here on school business
and will remain a week.

SATURDAY MIGHT

Rain failed to dampen the enthusI-

thronged the streets and the shops
yesterday afternoon and last night.
From p. N. until long after III the
stores did a thriving business and the
one where a customer could have MS
or her wants promptly attended to was
an exception. The crowd taxed tue
strength of the clerks.
Many persons who neglected to make
purchases earlier in the week found
themselves obliged last night to take
the best that was left and be satisfied.
The dry goods stores were apparently
as well patronized as the places where
toys are the principal article OF mer-
chandiSe.

DISTRICT ATTORNEY
MAKES STATEMENT
Goldheld. July Is. 1906.

Goldheld. July Is. 1906.
To the People of Goldfeld:
Having been somewhat caustically
criticised in a recent issue Of a local
paper for alleged neglect Of duty as dis
trict attorney in the matter of my re-
fusal to prosecute suits for the collec-
ton of the special ire tax for the town
Of Goldneld, and finding my failure TO
make a reply thereto m~isconstrued by
many. I am constrained to make the fol-
lowing statement:
II is generally believed that on the
sth day of December, 1906, the board OF
commissioners of Esmeralda county
PASSED an ordinance imposing a special
fire tax on the people of Goldheld for
the support of the Goldfeld fire depart
ment. This ordinance is supposed to
have been passed on the 9Th day of De-
cember. 1905, to take effect on the lst
day of October, 1905. The retroactive
clause therein would "a rendered the
ordinance absolutely voidable had IL
been regularly passed, but such an or
dinance was never placed on the minute
books of the county commissioners, n
It was only after a most diligent search
on the 4th day of June, 1906, that the
clerk of said board was enabled to find
the memoranda for such an ordinance,
which was furnished by the Goldfeld
town board, and which had been pigeon
holed in the county clerks office at
Hawthorne.
In order to have something on which
to stand in cases of refusal to pay this
tax the county commissioners at my
suggestion passed an ordinance at their
June meeting, to take effect July LIST.
providing for this special tax and order
ed the clerk to have same published one
week as required by law. h ordin-
ance has never been published. Not one
dollar Of this special fire tax has ever
been collected in Goldfeld under any
color of legal authority and my refusal
to prosecute has been from a reluctancy
to expose this condition of affairs.
I explained all this to Mr.. Tins, the
collector, when he first approached me
and assured him that as soon as an or
dinance was properly passed, I would
be glad to render him any assistance
possible. Respectfully,
]. F. DOUGLAS.

MANY NEVADA MINING
MEN AT Los ANGELES
Especial Correspondence

tSpeCldl correspondence
Los Angeles is becoming much inter-
ested in mining. Over 20 prominent citi-
zens of the different mining camps of
Nevada are at present in Los Angeles, or
some of the sea coast suburbs just adj
joining. Their p%resenc and their lavish
use of the coin Of the realm has started
an excitement nd an interest in regard
to investments in which so muc money
can be so quickly made, in the minds of
every citizen of Los Angeles.
At present there are registered at the
Alexandria Harry Lefkovits, Louis Lef-
kovits, w. F. Bond, J. r. Davis, of
Goldfeld; Roy Ridge of Fairfield, Jack
Humphrey, the original discoverer of
Manhattan, ". j. Arkell, of
Judge and Leslie's Weekly, January
Jones of Sassy Sal fame, III. r. Bacon,
well known Mining Engineer of Gold
field, E. C. Beardsley. Mining Engineer
of Manhattan, Bob Montgomery, Roger
Griswold, Lea Bleakmore, Walter c.
Cox.
Mr.. Griswold was taken sick at the
Alexandria and has since been sent to
Salt Lake City. 1t was thought for a
time that he would be unable to live.
Mr.. Bleakemore has incorporated the
Cox Investment company and is con-
Quoting the same line of business hat
made him so well known while he was
with the Patrick, Elliott & Camp COM
pany of Goldield.
January Jones has been enjoying life
at Catalina Island where he caught a
3~59-pound shark after fighting him two
hours and a half.
Considerable excitement was created
at the Angelus hotel by the arrival of a
suit case with a lady's white silk stock
ing hanging out of one end, and the
handle tied in gorgeous blue and
yellow ribbons The suit case was
labeled II am the property of W. F.
Bond, Bridegroom" and created much
fun, although it was afterwards proven
that it was all a joke. and that Mr.. Bond
is still in a state of single blessedness.
Mr.. W. J. Arkell has created much in
terest in his Manhattan Hindocraft
mine among Los Angeles people.
Roy Ridgei is busy spending the odd
moments of a pleasure trip in %expound-
ing the merits Of the great camp at
Goldfeld.
Five new brokerage offices have
started up in different buildings down
town; three of these have already To-
Gated in the Citizens National Bank
building.
The officers Of the Off-McGarvin-
Brown company are crowded with Ne
vada mining men day and night and the
greatest enthusiasm seems to abound.
The real estate boom is dying down
somewhat and surplus capital is already
looking for new fields for investment.
1t is predicted that the fall of 1906 will
see a craze for mining securities such
as has never been known in the world.

tINCNduo otdtO
Assistant District Attorney Garvin,
of New York, made a bad break the
other day. Speaking of the murder of
Stanford White by Harry Thaw. he
said, 1.-THE question is whether New
York has fallen to the level of a mining
camp, or whether a man has a chance
for his life here"
Mr.. Garvin may know a lot about
criminal law, but he does not know
much about mining camps. New York
can never fall to the level of a mining
camp, because she never was on a pal
with a mining camp. For justice to
man. for chivalry to woman, for broad
mindedness. charity. generosity. and all
the higher qualities that distinguish
the human being from the members of
the brute creation New York Is immeas-
urably inferior to Tonopah. Goldield. or
any other Nevada mining camp.
