RAILWAY REGULATION
BILL is REPORTED.

Washington, Feb. 26.-Expecting a
spirited discussion over the report OF
Senator Tfllman on the Hepburn bill,
the galleries of the senate were crowa-
ed when the session was calleu 10 or
der this morning Tillman decided
that he was not prepared to make a
formal report and that would be more
effective to simply report the bill in
accordance with the resolution adopted
by the committee, which provides that
the members are left free to exercise
their individual judgment concerning
the amendments that may be offered
in the senate.
As soon as the vice president called
for report of outstanding committees
number of senators rose but Tillman
was recognized. He announced THAI
he had been instructed by the com.
mittee on interstate commerce to re.
port house bill 1887 without amend.
ment, and then read the resolution
which had been adopted. After dis
cussicn concerning the printing of the
testimony taken by the committee, an
order was made for publication of TO-.
600 copies.
Tillman gave notice that he will
press the bill to the earliest consldera.
ton.
AS soon as Tillman concluded, Aid.
rich was recognized and said:
The majority of the republican
members of the committee did not join
in the favorable report which has just
been made by the senator from South
Carolina, for the reason that in their
judgment an attempt should have been
made by the committee to remedy by
proper amendments some obvious and
admitted defects and omissions in the
house bill. and tina clear and ade
quate provision should have been
made for subjecting the orders of the
commission affecting rates, TO judicial
review. They believed these amend
ments are not only necessary to pro
rect the rights of all parties, but that
they are essential to the vitality and
efficiency of the measure itself. With
these amendments the minority mem
bers together with the senator from
Ohio, who is opposed to all govern
ment rate making, were ready to give
their support to the house billy
CulbersOn said:
Il take it that in large degree the
committees action is no more nor less
Shan a transfer of the controversy
from the committee room to the sen,
ate chamber, therefore Ioffer a substi.
tute for the bill just reported. This
substitute is in effect a bill upon the
same subject which | previously in
troduced."
The bill was ordered printed and to
lay on the table unil the rate bill shall
be taken up.

.ONOPAH'S
NEW HOTEL
1t Will Be an Ornament to the
Town and a Monument to
the Enterprise Of Builders.

Ground will be broken on the first
of April for the new Merchants hotel
to be erected by Casey & Arden and
associates on the southeast corner OF
Main street and Oddie avenue. This
is the pleasing news impaired to a
BONANZA representative by Thomas
Arden yesterday.
The plans for the new structure
have been completed and call for a
four story building and basement to
cover the 50xl00 foot lot, 1t has
not been decided as yet whether to
use brick or stone, but Mr.. Arden
thinks it will be the former.
The ground floor Of the hotel will
have a lobby 30x35, the SWEETEST cafe
in the west and a bar.
The second floor will have twelve
rooms, all elegantly furnished, with a
telephone, bath and toilet attached
to each.
The third floor will have sixteen
rooms and the fourth floor twenty
rooms. The basement will be fitted
up for a billiard room and barber
shop.
The house will be electric lighted
and steam heated throughout, and
will have al up-to-date elevator-the
first in Tonopah and about the third
in Nevada.
The enterprise of Casey & Arden
in this matter is to be commended.
They have worked early and late for
some time in an effort to secure for
Tonopah an hotel that will the pride
not only Of the city but the entire
state, and it is certainly gratifying
to know that their efforts are about
10 be crowned with success.
Tonopah bonanza. [volume] (Butler City [i.e. Butler], Nev.) 1901-1909, 1906-03-03

Tonopah has long been the target of
the Reno and other yellow journals,
but the following rot by "Sallie Sharp"
in the San Francisco Call, is about the
limit:
Mrs. John Overbury pretty Emily
Chickering), having heroically survived
the well meant efforts of her friends to
testify to their friendship by smother
her meath ante-nuptial teas, dinners,
sat homes and innumerable card par
ties, is now on her way east on her
honeymoon trip, which was prefaced
by a few days stay at Del Monte.
The Overburys will fit about the
East for a time, and then embark for
Europe, where they will join the Clar-
ence Oddies, who preceded them to the
altar by a month.
Mr.. Oddie and Mr.. Overbury are
partners in mining ventures in Tonopah,
to which busy camp-your pardon, town,
or is it citY?-they will bring their bon
ny brides, after a six months tour of
the continent.
Charming homes await the coming of
the brides, particularly the Oddie home
stead, which is quite the pride of the
district, with a lawn and flowers and
other astonishing domestic embellish-
ments that rarely obtain in a mining
center.
When Ned Greenway fitted into To-
nopah last year, he did not think it a
promising field for a Friday Night cotil-
lon-in fact he found the ladies some
what heterogeneous as to social stand
ing-which, up to date, hadn't been
figured on. But things have resolved
themselves since then into their ele-
ments, and now it isn't a hard thing to
classify "Who's Who in Tonopah."
1t is said that the classification was
precipitated by a ball-all terpsichorean
stunts in a mining town are balls given
by the smart mems club up there.
Men in such places are essentially
democratic and more or less u~nconven-
nional, and every good fellow was asked
to bring his wife. And there was lie
diable to pay!
Haven't you any more sense than to
ask me to go to that dance with that
mans wife? don't want to know her
socially, even if l do have to say Good
morning to her from the back yard. +"
And thus were the good and whole
some intentions of the "ball' ruthless
ly ruptured. The ladies who consider
ed themselves especially nice stayed
away, the second lot went for a short
time-just to please their husbands
and the third lot stayed all night and
had the deuce of a good time,
And thus was the heterogeneous So
ciety at Tonopah disintegrated and re-
classified according to the attitudes
taken by the women at the now famous
''ball." Clarence Oddie and John Ov-
erbury are two of Southern Nevada's
most popular young men and they GER
tainly do not approve of the hogwash
crntained in the above article. ED.
