ARE HOLDING
PRIMARIES TODAY

New York. Sept. 1S.-Today pri-
mary elections are being held in New
York by both the Democratic and Re-
publican parties. Much interest is
taken in the primaries this year be-
cause of contests for control being
waged against B. B. odell. Jr.. the
present head of the state Republican
organization and Charles f. Murphy,
head of the Tammany Democracy.
The opposition to Odell in New
York City is being waged by Herbert
Parsons chairman of the Republican
committee, who recently visited Pres
ident Roosevelt at Oyster Bay and
received from the president an en-
dorsement of Mr.. Parsons course
in political affairs. In Tammany the
situation is more complicated Muir
ply is fighting to continue as lead
er of the organization but opposed to
him and forces friendly to Mayor
Mcmillan, while the adherents of
Congressman Timothy d. Sullivan
who are very powerful in the organi-
cation, have not yet indicated their
position. Whether the New York
county delegates to the state Demo
cratic convention will be instructed
for w. r. Hearst for governor may
depend on the result of the Tammany
primary, as Murphy is generally sup
posed to favor such an endorsement.

GAMBLER KILLS
MESSENGER BOY

One of the blacklist murders that
has yet stained history of Nevada's
mining camps was committed in
Goldfeld on saturday night.
John Moritz aged 10 was shot to
death by Jack Thompson, gambler.
Moritz was a messenger for the tele-
phone company and had occasion to
go to one of the notorious dance
halls of the red light district of Gold
field
There, it is said. he accidentally
bumped into Thompson, who was
dancing. Thompson swore at him
and threatened that he would fix the
boy later.
About three o'clock in the morning
Moritz was passing by saloon on
his wheel when Thompson drew
a pistol and fired, one shot striking
Moritz in the hip. He fell from the
machine and Thompson deliberately
walked to the fallen boy and leaning
over him delivered another fatal
shot. Indignation reached high
pitch and there was talk of lynch
ing. Morftz is well known. His home
was in St. Paul. his mother living at
No. COS Van Buren, Street.

in tree planting can be stimulated by
distributing a limited number of these

to schools in various parts of the coun-
try, and there will accompany each
tree concise statement setting forth
the historic events connected with the

Vienna. was found when opened to
contain instead large cross of white
flowers. destined for the funeral of a
well-known Austrian general just dead.

within half an hour of the wedding,

SUCH A CHANCE
RARELY OFFERED

Our property, seven full claims, is
located in the Sinbab valley, in the
foot hills of the La Sale mountains
in the extreme southwest corner of
Mesa county, colorado. The strike
extends northwest by southeast, is in
the carbonacious shales, blue lime
being the country rock, with quartz
tiles and eruptive periphery between
walls. The deposit is mostly an
aqueous crystalization, consisting of
sulphates, oxides and carbonates in
contact or separated with blue lime.
The vein varies from to 5 feet in
width and extends the length of the
entire property. Assays run from
10 per cent copper and 10 ounces in
silver to 80 per cent copper and 200
ounces of silver, besides about S3,-
so in gold, and fine indication of
uranium, with an average run in eN-
| cess of is per cent copper and co
ounces of silver. We have prospect
ed said property the entire length,
having spent many thousands of dol
lars, and find that the vein contin-
ues to hold its value and increases in
wealth as 1t goes down. A fine vein
of carbonate of iron, within our own
lines, parallels it below and an ex-
cellent measure of lime above. These
are the oily fluxes needed to reduce
this ore. Plenty of water power
near at hand and an abundance of
fuel. The only impediment to the
successful operation of these mines,
even when their products are very
low. was the lack of transportation
decided to part with a limited amount
of treasury stock, for the purpose Of
constructing ore roads and putting
in the necessary machinery.
one-third of all the stock was
placed in the treasury so that we will
always have sufficient means to
bridge any necessary expense, but
only a small block is offered at this
time. as we are confident that as soon
as we have transportation facilities
that the mines will Immediately place
themselves on paying basis, now
that the price of their products have
nearly doubled.
This is an opportunity to get in on
the ground floor with the original
owners. who have borne the heat and
burden of the day in times past. when
prospecting rock cost money.
Secure some of this rock and aid
in developing one of the greatest cop
Iper producing propositions known to
exist in the United States, and watch
your bank account grow and the
stock go up as the shaft goes down.
We will be glad to have our property
inspected at any time, as 1t Will much
more than bear out any of these
statements. But don't neglect tc
come in and reap with us, as there
are thousands of tons of high grade
ore ready to ship as soon as this roat
can be completed, and the harvest
Will be great.
Treasury stock is now offered al
Scents per share, owing to the great
necessity for this road. When We
have accomplished that the stoci

mines will at once become a paying
proposition. which means at least 81

Mr.. Reynolds Talks.
Said Jefferson Reynolds, president

of the matter: Ever since the instl

treatment Of patients by disgruntled
or dismissed employees, nearly always
incompetent, have been common. The
board has taken pains to investigate
every complaint and has ever insisted
upon the most careful, scientific and
humane treatment of patients. In
every instance where an attendant
has been shown to have been cruel or
incompetent, he or she has been dis.

The board would be equally ready to
condemn the management unsparingly
for palliating or attempting to cover
up any wrong doing on the part OF
employees.
"The board has confidence, born of
years of experience, in the medical
superintendent and the steward of the,
institution. But the fact has never
hindered us from taking independent
means to investigate the charges made
against the institution

continued his speech in support Of the
proposition He said certain Senators
had said to him that the amendment
went too far, but in meeting that con
tention he said legislation, to be eff

Stone announced his concurrence in
the views of Clapp, but expressed the
opinion that there should not only be

further leases also should be prohib
