The Big and Formidable Sinners Arc
Gray Of Soul, Not Black. srt
No paradox ID 1t, but u demonstrable
fact, that In q highly articulate society
the gravest harms are inflicted not by
the worst men, but by those with vir-
tues enough to boost them into some
cOign of vantage. The boss who sells
to filth, disease and the powers that
prey owes his chance to his engaging
good fellowship and big h~eartedness.
Some of the most ,ifz:i.ny careers Of
fraud have behind thea !ols and reas.
surfing records Of p:n i,f. ;hich have
served to bait the trap Of yillainy.
Not that these decoy virtues are COM
terfelt. They are, in fact, so genuine
that often the stalwart sinner perse-
veres In the virtue that has lifted him
into the high places he abuses. The
legislator c~onscientlously returns the
Doodle when he finds he cannot de
liver the goods" The boss stands BY
his friends to his own hurt. The lob
bying lawyer Is faithful to his client.
The c%orrupting corporation president Is
loyal to his stockholders. The bought
en- editor never quite overcomes his
craft instinct to print "all the news
there is."
In a word, the big and formidable
sinners are gray of soul. but not black,
80 that chastlsement according to their
character rather than according to their
deeds let's them of far too easlly.-E.

MANHATTAN STANDARD
AN IMPORTANT FLoTATION

One of the more recent mining Ell
terprises launched in the Manhattan
mining district is the Manhattan
Standard Gold Mining company which
has behind it some of the most i%nfluen-
tial mining men of Goldfeld. The hold
ings of the company are located in the
heart of the Manhattan pay belt and
adjoin the April Fool and Tip Top
claims both of which are in shipping
ore. The same vein system passes
through the company's acreage and
high grade is now being sacked within
200 feet of it's end lines. Howard
Rummell, a mining man of exceptional
ability is in charge of operations and
under his management development is
being pushed in a systematic and Wig
orous manner.
The Manhattan Standard has acquired
title to about As acres of mineral land
and included in its estate are the
Aroro, Bald Eagle and Kosmopogo
claims. The ground has a prospective
value second to none in that camp and
four applications for leases have al.
ready been filed.

GIVE THE PosToFFICE A LIFT

The aoldfeld postomce has been subjected to n abuse that both in the in
teretso of the postmaster md the general public should no longer be encouraged.
The grade of a postomce is determined by the amount of business it does,
based upon its cash receipts. The higher the grade the better facilities granted
by the Washington authorities and therefore the better service rendered the
public. aaN Nef
The local postomce is n office of the second class; but the amount If bust,
ness it does is SO nearly the requirements for the first grade that only a few more
dollars comparatively would enitle it to the rank OF a first class office. The
amount of actual work it does, however-the amount of mail handed-s far
out IF proportion 20 its revenues and far in excess of the work OF many offices
of the first class, while handicapped with the facilities of a second class office
only.
This fact arises from peculiar conditions. There Ire brokerage houses i>
Godfad which do an enormou mail business. Their mailed matter reaches into
hundreds of thousands of pieces annually. They find it desirable to use the gov
eminent stamped envelope. These envelopes they have been buying in Carson
City Or Reno, wheret they have their printing done. The envelopes ae printed
and expressed to this city for use here The office at Reno Or Carson, as the case
may be- gets the benefit of these large sales, while the Goldfdd postomce is not
only deprived of this revenue but must stand the york and expense of handling
this enormou output The hardship works both ways
Now, if these brokerage firms would only buy their stamped envelopes from
the local office and thus put the office in the first class where it properly belongs
instead If buying elsewhere and 'cusing" the local Office for shortcomings in
service it would be more reasonable an just and the public would get the i'm
proved postal service to which it is entitled.

SUSTAIN THE FIRE DEPARTMENT

The fire m Crook avenue early Tuesday morning, only emphasizes the use
fulness and efficiency of the paid ire department The fire was lot bad in
itself, but might hav started a general confagraton had lot the department
responded SO promptly and effectively. AS it was, the house tent was consumed
but not an article of the contents burned, a rather remarkable fact and wholly
due to the prompt and intelligent use OF the chemical engine.
The Godfed fire department must be maintained and properly equipped.
1t is of the utmost Importance to the camp. II was only stupidity o a criminal
kind that permitted the department to get into its present financial plight. For
many weeks the fremen were unpaid; n fuel supplied and 10 feed for the
horses, except what the fremen themselves were able to rustic In or mad
rush for gold we seemed entirely to have forgotten the sturdy and faithful
fellows who stand watch day and night guarding the safety of the city and

What a commentary upon mans inhumanty to man-of mans inhumanty to
himself!
1t seems that the county commissioners are to blame fr the present dis
graceful situation. Notwithstanding the fact that the GoMfeld district con
tributes nearly the whole of thu taxes to sustain the county government, the
commissioners, sitting 12o miles away have totally ignored the demands made

GoLDFIELD WANTS THE ROAD

All Southern Nevada rejdces with hi Bunrog district wei her prospects

Las Vegas so long promised but hoped fol with msgivings, is actually under
construction and is headed north blowing its way through the deserts at the
rate If a mile a day. From the present rateo of track laying, the road should
reach Bulfrog about the first IF June. BY the first of May the road will have
reached Indian creek, about forty miles out Of Bumrog. 1t is the intention of
the railroad management to establish a frighting line between these points for
temporary ue thus partially relieving Bunhog from its congested condition.
1t is understood that j Ross CLARK, the man behind the Las Vegas and
Tonopah railroad, will visit BuIfrog between the 10th and 18th Of February. at
