Mr.. F. D. Ensign has received
the appointment by Governor Da-
wilson to fill the unexpired term on
the Board. 1t is safe to say the va
cancy could not have been more ac-
ceptably filled than by the appoint
ment of Mr.. Ensign, who is clear
headed, honorable man and one
whose interests would naturally be
closely related to the local school
from which he was graduated in
1879, member, as was also Mrs.
Ensign, of the first diploma class
ever sent out from the school.
While regretting Mr.. Lords resig-
nation the community will be well
satisfied to have his place so filled.

Resignation of Regent Lord.

The announcement of the resig-
nation of Hon. F. H. Lord from his
position as member of the Board of
Regents of Normal Schools came as
decided surprise to the citizens
as it was generally known that his
term of Office does not expire for
three years, but the duties of the
Office have been growing more bur-
densome and the long service Mr.,
Lord has given the state made him
feel that it was a duty he owed to
himself and family to discontinue
his services.
Mr.. Lord was appointed to fill the
vacancy caused by the death of DR..
Ballard in August, 1896, so that he
has been member for almost ten
years. During the last three years
he has served in the arduous capac-
ity as President of the Board and
continued his work as member of
the executive committee, the work.
ing committee of the Board. He
has been a member of this commit
tee continuously for nine years, and
has given therein an honest, safe,
conservative and untiring service,
such as few men are capable of Civ
ing, and still fewer are inclined to
give gratuitously.
The feeling of those who know
the nature of the work Mr.. Lord has
done in the interests of the Normal
schools, every detail of which was
perfectly known to him, is best
shown by letter from the Govern
or, which we have permission to
quote.

maintained. Conscious as we are that
Nevada has entered upon a new era of
prosperity, we trust that Governor
Sparks administration will be the
prophecy of Industrial peace and con-
tinued prosperity in the future.
S-we favor the enactment of a just
and equitable employers liability act for
the protection Of the lives and limbs of
employees.
SENATOR NEWLANDS ENDORSED
9-We commend with pride and satis-
faction the able and effective work of
our senior United States senator.
Francis G.. Newlands. The great irri-
CATION law with which his name will be
forever identified. is working a mar
velous transformation in the social and
economic life of sixteen states and ter
r~itories, and supplying new hope to mill
lions of American citizens who will OBJ
tain homes under its benefcent opera
tion.
In view of his splendid service we
most heartily endorse his candidacy for
reelection in 1909.
lO-We are earnestly in favor of the
creation by law of the office of bank
inspector to the end that the depositors
of money in such institutions may be
adequately protected.
live believe that legislation should
at all times be passed with a view 10
the comfort and safety of the working
man, and to that end it is urged that
suitable laws be enacted by the next
legislature of his state providing for
a mine inspector who shall m all
mines, adits, tunnels, shafts, ETC., and
keep all the works up to a certain stand
ard to be fixed by law.
12-In the rapid upbuilding now go
ing on in our state it is extremely inn
portant that ample provision shall be
made for public chool instruction. Too
long the schools, outside of the larger
towns, nave drifted on with no adequate
supervision, and apparently with no
effort on the part of the educational de-
partment TO provide a definite course OF
study or to introduce practical lines OF
work on a systematic basis. W. favor

salaries for the teachers.

consumers by arbitrary methods and
prices.
RATE REGULATION
I've hail the railroad rate legisla-
ton enacted by the present ongres as
the first step in a program which looks
to the growing assertion of national
authority over great a~ggregations of
capital. and we claim this step of pro-
gress as a Democratic victory, because
the Republican administration which
urged the measure found, not only it's
inspiration, but it's specific plan, in the
Democratic national platform of 1904,
and received a united Democratic sup
port in the enactment of the law.
HOPE is IN DEMOCRATIC PARTY
5-We declare it to be our conviction
that President Roosevelt's only hope of
success in obtaining effective laws to
stop the aggressions of monopoly, alike
in Transportation, in industry, and in
high finance, lies in the election of a
Democratic congress in November next.
The Republican majority in the present
congress deliberately emasculated the
most important measures which came
before it for consideration in order to
make them as Intellectual as possible.

awkward provisions for judicial review.
1t put the expense of meat inspection
wholly upon the public and refused to
require the placing of dates upon labels
to show when the meat was packed.
1t neglected to provide al a%ppropria-
ton for the execution of the pure food
bill, so that it remains a dead letter.
More significant and sinister than all.
the Republican congress refused to pass
measures forbidding campaign contribu-
tions by corporations and requiring full
publicity of all campaign funds, thus
showing that the notorious partnership
between the Republican managers and
the trusts is to continue to debauch our
national elections.
1--WE adhere to our oft stated posi-
ton on the money question. We claim
that the cumulative theory of money
has been indicated by history. We re-
ioice that history has verified all the
contentious of the great Democrat, who
in 1896 voiced Democratic opinion. and
that public sentiment now demands his
installment in the high position OF
which he was then unjustly deprived by
a campaign of misrepresentation, cor
ruption and fraud unequaled in the his
tory of the country
GOV. SPARKS COMMENDED
I've congratulate the people OF
Nevada upon the impartial and able ad-
ministration of Governor Sparks. His
administration has been characterize
by Industrial peace which should b'
gratifying to all classes alike. Durint

institution and is doing a noble work
for our young men and women. We
favor liberal appropriations for its sup
port, and such legislation as will place
and keep it at all times on a cash basis.
The university should be kept entirely
out of politics. and, with that end in
view, we favor the nomination of but
two of the four regents to be chosen at
the coming election, one for the long
term and one for the short term, at the
same time authorizing the state centeral
committee to fill the vacancies upon the
ticket from the candidates selected by
the Republican party. If that party take
similar action, otherwise to fill the va
cancies as may be deemed best.

States mint at Carson city be opened

the most positive terms 10 all railroads
traversing our state that we expect and
demand the establishment by each of

capital and labor are inter-dependent
and pledge ourselves to do all that lies
in our power by means of legislation
and other legitimate methods to foster

PRINCIPLES OF TRUE
DEMOCRACY ARE TOLD

THE Democrats and silver men or
Nevada rejoice in the nations continued
prosperity, in the abundant crops, the
goodly yields of the mines, the fun
employment of labor, and the favorable
balance of foreign trade. But we de-
plore the manner in which this vast in
crease of wealth, produced by the en-
ergy and industry of all our people, is
more and more concentrated In the
hands of a few as the inevitable conse-
quence of inadequate laws, of special
privileges, of gigantic m~onopolies in
the necessaries of life. and of the con-
troll of all the sources of legislation by
the alliance between organized politics
and organized wealth.
I'VE favor the election of United
states senators by the direct vote of the
people.
REVISION OF TARIFF
3-We favor a careful. well considered
revision of tariff schedules, which shall
aim at the reduction or total removal OF
the duties on articles of American man
ufacture sold more cheaply in foreign
countries thar at home, and which shall
deprive industrial monopolies of tn
power to exploit both producers an

FAIRvIEw SOUTH END HAS
GOOD ORE AT SHALLOW DEPTH

The Fairview South End Mining COM
pany is the name of a new corporation
tina recently purchased the Goldstone
Nos. /, 2 and 3, and full claims which
adjoin the Gold Coin mine The latter
is one of the best properties in this sec
ton of the camp and the dykes which
run through the Gold Coin group can
be traced through the Goldstones. The
Coin is said to be producing ore that
assays in spots as high as $500 and in
the Goldstone ore is being piled up for
a shipment. The shaft is down only 20
feet and an assay on an average sample
taken across the entire bottom showed
the good value of $40 in gold. An assay
on a picked sample of the ore went 1882.
1t is the intention to continue the shaft
down to a depth of so feet before a sta
ton is cut. On the surface the out
cropping dyke is 20 feet wide and it all
pans.

hours. rs We have done in the past, vie
shall also in the future, encourage
the adpotion of the eight hour laboring
day in all occupations where it is rea-
sonable and appropriate. and extend it
by legislation to all occupations where
in the constitution will permit.
CAPITAL PROTECTED
We stand for the fullest protection of
capital and of vested property interests
and shall endeavor to ncourag the
greatest possible investment of outside
and local capital in our state, by careful
and liberal legislation in it's protection
and by the impartial administration of
existing laws.
BRYAN THE MAN
The election of 1906 will be the pre-
lude of the great presidential struggle
of 1908. The Democratic standard
bearer of two years hence is already
nominated in the hearts of the American
people. Twice before the people of Ne
vada have given an overwhelming ma
jority of their votes to the great leader
and statesman whom destiny has clearly
marked as the next president of the
United States In this years campaign
we are fighting his battle, as through
ten weary years he has fought the bat
tie of Nevada. If Nevada would pay
her debt of gratitude TO one who has
fought the fight and kept the faith. il
Nevada would see the aspirations of her
people, triumphant two years hence,
she will make sure of a Democratic VIC
tory in November next. and thereby ex-
press in unmistakable terms her Con-
fdence in the leadership. the character
and the wisdom of the next president of
the United States, William Jennings
Bryan.-Adv.

ly and not i~nfrequently yields small
nuggets. Assays are secured as high
as 1876 in gold the ton. and the streak
from which the high grade is secured is
being sacked for shipment.
NORTH MANHATTAN
Over in the North Manhattan section
the acreage of the Manhattan Butler
company, which, by the way. is the
most extensive in Southern Nevada, is
being developed with all the dispatch
consistent with systematic mining eff
fort and under mineral conditions of
great promise. The company owns 65
claims that are traversed by a network
of veins, twenty of which have been
proven to carry milling grade ore at
nominal depth. One of these lodges is
Z feet in breadth and returns assays as
high as $40 in gold the ton. The estate
is being prospected through the medium
of $50 feet. In driving the bores .
number of lodges have been intersected
and wherever prospected they have IN
variably returned very satisfactory col
values. As soon as the grade of the orc
has been definitely determined the COM
pany will erect a mill at the property.
FUTURE ASSURED
To add to the general prosperity of
the camp and to insure it's future pro-
d~uction, output and growth a quarter
million dollars has been subscribed and
is already in bank for the erection of a
large stamp mill near Central for the
reduction of the ores of Manhattan dis
trict. Twenty-Five stamps will be
utilized at first. but in constructing the
plant allowance will be made for the in
s~tallation of other batteries as occasion
demands. A water supply of Is miners
inches-Weir measurement-has been
secured in Jet canon and a further water
right purchased in Chipley canon. En-
gineers are now engaged in surveying
for reservoir sites ana pine lines and
there seems little question but what the
plant will be in operation by New
Years. A test shipment, made NJ of
the various ores of the camp, is being
tested in Denver to determine what pro-
cess is best adapted for their treatment
and as soon as the result is announced
the milling machinery will be ordered.

veloped the Elkton mine at Cripple
Creek and the January mine at Goldheld
into bonanzas and the present showing in
the Buffalo shaft would indicate that
he is to soon announce another mining
success. The quartz is showing free
gold in quantity and in the breast of
the crosscut run out from the bottom
of the main working shaft the mineral
~ization is indicative of the proximity of
an extensive and valuable ore body.
MANHATTAN WHALE
The Manhattan Whale company are
working a force of 5 men on the st.
George and from present indications the
number will be increased in the near
future as it looks as though an ore
shoot would be entered at any round of
shots. The drift on the ledge is being
extended at a depth of go feet. Good as
says are being secured. The surface
showing on the portion of the st. George
which is under lease by Joe Williams
is looking better day by day. Three
men are operating the dry washer and
taking out from $25 to $3.50 a day.
MANHATTAN KEY
Work is to be resumed on the Man
haitian Key as soon as Secretary e. w.
Van Dyke returns from his eastern
trip. There is showing in the bottom
of the 50-foot shaft a 4-foot vein of
quartz that assays as high as $53 in
gold, lead and copper. The copper
values run as high as SIS per cent.
IN THE COPPER BELT
Coma r,ontbC rO the alienation Of q
number of Manhattan mining men was
attracted to the copper yielding pos
sibilities of that section of the district
lying to the east of East Manhattan and
extending as far as the Ralston desert.
After going carefully over the ground
these gentlemen decided that it held
merit and purchased a number of claims
from the original locators. Two com
panies were then formed for the pur-
pose of exploiting the acreage. one
named the Toquima Copper company
and the other the Bonanza Copper com
pany. Six claims are embraced in the
holdings of the first mentioned and on
all of them copper blossom is pro-
nounced.
bonanza COPPER
The estate of the Bonanza Copper
company adjoins that of the Toquima
company and the copper showing on its
acreage is quite as encouraging. The
big assure which carries the chalcopy-
rites so plentifully on Toquima ground
extends across five of the Bonanza com
pany's claims, but as yet development
has not been furthered sufficiently to
demonstrate whether or no the same
class of values prevail. However, the
showing is sufficiently great to convince
the management of the value of the
ground and to induce it to enter into
negotiations with the Toquima people
looking to the joint purchase, erection
and operation of a concentrating plant,
the estimated cost of which is $4,000.
High grade gold values also obtain on
Bonanza ground in a ledge running at
almost right angles with the main ledge.
