Special Rates to Lake Tahoe

Churchill county residents who con
template visiting Lake Tahoe during
the coming summer will be glad to
note that the southern Pacific has es-
tabIlshed very low rates lor Lake
Tahoe travel during the entire season.
There is no better place than Lake
Tahoe and its matchless surroundings
for the dyspeptic and neuresthetie to
reenperate. Sometimes we think it is
not appreciated a. it should be, for its
scenic beauty is unsurpassed. A.
though great numbers now visit the
resorts that abound on the lakes
shores during each season, they will
increase rs the virtues Of the place be
known. The Tahoe OF the future
will be to America what Lake Geneva

NEWS NOTES AND COMMENT
ANDERSON GRATING AGAIN
w. c. Black, Editor

9 lOME time ago the Standard called attention to a graft
III feature III vogue in the Hazen Justice of the peace office.
IxaI An item that came in for especial consideration was the
matter of tees for one day, which amounted to SOC, a very pal
pable case ofmalfeasancc Of moral right, if not of office. Fol
lowing he exposure made by the Standard, Justice !. Anderson
appeared before the honorable board of county commissioners
and pledged his word that the graft would stop, and acknoWE
edged that a steal had been practiced III the handling OF the
criminal element. Don't imagine kind reader that the Standard
takes unto itself credit for the willy Justices mushroom promises;
on the contrary they came of a knowledge that his office was
virtually vacant by reason of his failure to properly secure bonds
men, and he did the moral kow tow before the board, laboring
under a fear thar he would be disqualified. All these assertions
have been amply proven by lis latest bill which appears this
month in the form from which he foreswore further practice, and
the case OF John Doe full IegaI fees, and Brown, Smith, Jones and
White still figure the same as Doe In the meantime the tax
payers Of this county are Wond erinp just what they are getting
as value for the extortionate demands OF the Hazen justice, who
continues to erect buildings in the daytime, and hear eases in
the evening TO the tune OF something like $4,000 per year, which
makes the Justices Office for Hot Springs precinct a very lucrative
office indeed. \ man must have a lot OF pure unaduIterated gall
stored somewhere i'll his anatomy to make him so far forget the
moral aspect of a question and the feelings of an outraged public,
fear OF removal from office. Now, that his bondsmen have been
approved, lie feels secure and will doubtless continue to practice
his nearious work.
BY way Of comparison II should be stated that Falons JUS
tce OF the peace presents bills monthly varying from 81 80 to
$40, while Mr. Andersons bills run into the hundreds. This in
the face OF the fact that FaIon precinct is several times more
populous than Hazen. and the respective elements are practically
the same.
Now, that Mr.. Anderson's bondsmen have been approved,
he doubtless feels secure, and will continue to practice his
nefarious work, until he is made to feel the weight of public dis
approval, which Is already plainly manifest. There is a world of
difference II a public servant and a public CRATER, anyway.

$500. The postotliee department has
ruled that mail must he looked over

HAMILTON RETURNS HOME
Insurance Attorney Says He Came to
Face the Muse, ''DlScordant
or 0therwiSe.''
or Otherwise

Andrew Hamilton returned to New
York on Tuesday from Paris on the
steamer Deutschland, on which he
was registered under the name of w.
Milton. Mr.. Hamilton was at the head
OF the legislative bureau Of the New
York Life Insurance company and had
charge of the legislative work of sew
eral Of the large companies. To obtain
all accounting from him OF moneys al
legged to have been advanced to him by
the late John A. Mccall as president Of
the New York Life, John C. Mccall,
secretary Of the company went 10
Paris recently. The accounting was
asked for by the Fowler committee
which is investigating the New York
Life affairs.
Commenting on John A. McCalls
death, Mr.. Hamilton said he gave the
former president of the New York Life
vouchers for all expenditures, and
that to any and all Of these vouchers,
Mr.. Mccall would have given a certiti-
cate of indisputable character. He said
that he registered under the assumed
name on the Deutschland in order to
nave his return voyage free from an
doyance. He said:
"EVhat l suppose you want to know
is why have returned. Well, heard
something about criminal proceedings
and here I am; this signifies that
though my health is far from re-es-
tablished, I'm ready to accept any chal-
lenge implied by such proceedings.
GAS to what others have said and
done during my absence-and might
allude to those who live in glass
houses-I will say nothing"

music he was asked.

STAND READY 10 INVADE CHINA.
Senators Alege General Army Staff is Run.
ming War Department.


ming War Department.
The question Of the enlargement Of
the medical department of the army
occupied the major portion Of the time
of the senate Tuesday.
During the discussion Mr.. Hale said
that the general staff had prepared
plans for the invasion of China by an
Amesican army, but he added that he
did not mean to go into that subject
"for, with the secretary of state sit
ting on the lid, l do not believe we
are likely to have war"
The last statement brought Mr.. Till
man TO his feet with the suggestion
that "if the secretary of state is sitting
Gil the lid and the secretary of war is
trying to pry him off, it will go off
because of the greater ayoirdupois Of
the head Of the war department"
Without entering Into the jest, Mr.
Hale replied that he was willing to
trust the secretary of war in this mat
ter notwithstanding he had transmit
ted the recommendations of the STAFF.
He added the statement that the staff
was taking upon itself the responsible
.ty for the conduct Of the war depart
ment. 1t was, he said, the purpose Of
that organization to invade China,
which would be a declaration of'war.
Mr.. Hale, was replying to question
of Mr. Tillman, who asked how many
troops had been Sent to rhe Philippines
with view of their being sent to
China, and Mr.. Hale said: Il do not
know how many troops have been
sent there, but l think several thou
sand. The purpose Of the general staff
is that they may be used If any emerg-
ency either arises CT can be made to
invade China, which, Of course, would
be a declaration of war while con-
gress is in session"
