The attention of republican voters is
called to above platform. Mr. Carter made
his platform brief and to the point. Moth.
ing is contained in it but what he ma,
be depended upon to perform. Looking
over the journal of the house of the last
session of the Legislature shows his vote
in every instance to have been on the
side of the people.
We can see no reason why Mr.. Garter
should not be re nominated at the COM
ing primary election next Ftiday. Par,
courtesy demands it for when an Official
has given Satisfaction there is an unw,it
ten law in politics entitlng him to sec
ond term.
His experience gained at the last SEES
sion will enable him to do better and
more legislative work, az it will not re-
quire half of the session for him to
familiarize himself with the legislative
work as is the experience of all new
members. We eau see no reason why
Virgil Carter should not be re-nominatei /
and reelected.

Candidate For Governor.

J. NJ. Mitchell. a Godfeld min
ing engineer, who was recently
announced through the press as
a possible candidate for the Re-
publican nomination for Governor
has sent Judge C. w. Long, OF
Goldfield, to Carson, Reno,
Virginia City and other western
and northern sections of the
State to boom his interests. Long
says Goldfeld and the southern
country will ask for but one
place on the State ticket, the
Govsrnorship and Mitchell will
be put forward as its favorite
son. He believes that with
Mitchell in the field T. L. Oddie,
the Tonopah mining magnate,
will not oppose him for the NOM
nation. Mitchell has lived in
Nevada for 35 years, and was
located for a long time at Austin
where he was engaged in the
mining business.

POORMAN MINE.

The Poorman mine east Of
town has been leased by the Ne
vada-Utah Co., to Lloyd, Cook
and Christian for a long term,
and these gentlemen are now in
Salt Lake arranging for hosting
machinery with which to equip
the shaft now down 300 feet.
This mine has been a great
producer for the depth attained
and on a former lease worked by
Mr.. Lloyd and others some We rs
ago it is estimated that $1,000
was paid in royalties alone.
Thus one by one is practical
experience and common sense
bringing to the front some Of the
old producers and opening to

RAILROAD
FOR PIOCHE.
Is 1t A Dream Or Is
1t A Fact. Let's See.

OSlldIOI w. n. Oidfh, d. ISOSS
Clark and VIM McDermitt spent
the greater portion of Wednes-
day in Phoebe relative to extend
ing the San Pedro railroad into
this section.
Interogated by a representa-
tive of this paper the following
information was given out for
publication by VIM. McDermitt
and j. Ross Clark.
AS a representative of this
little country weekly ] would
like to have some authentic news
relative to the early building of
the San Pedro road into Phoebe
was asked Mr.. McDermitt.
well you newspaper men are
pretty good guessers, but you
may say we are down here for
the purpose of looking the field
over and the attention we are
paying to the district is encourage
ing"
But Mr.. Nc. this is somewhat
unsatisfactory for two or more
reasons: First | do not care to
always be on the guessing side
and l would like to tell the truth
once. You spent several months
here studying the resources of
the country and / know there is
something coming up. We want
the railroad because we need it.
Would you object to state one
fact we could depend upon.
Let me see j. Ross Clark,
probably he has some news to
give out" was the answer to
my query.
While Mr.. McDermitt stepped
into the Cecil Hotel to interview
Mr.. Clark upon the subject, the
pencil pusher pranced the
varanda wondering what would
come next. | dropped dead
when both gentlemen returned,
but recovered sufficiently to hear
something like this:
you may state, Mr.. RECORD,
that we are well pleased with
what we have seen"
Yes, this is lovely country,
but you haven't seen anything.
But we have records and re-
ports, one of which is of recent
date and we place a great deal of
credence upon it. +"
AT this stage l fell dead again
and only recovered upon the as
surance that Mr.. Clark had
switched from the main points
only long enough to weigh what
he said
You may say Mr.. RECORD, 4"
he said again. By that time l
time | had summoned a physician
that Phoebe will have a rail-
road, THAT documents made
public within a few days will
assure you"
When" l yelled, | know
that's Phoebe will have a railroad
have never doubted that, but
when?" do not expect to
live always, and would love to
ride out Of this camp on a free
excursion. He laughed at my
earnest; but could not help it.
The physician was holding my
pulse ]. Ross Clark continued:
THE NEXT SNOW THAT
COMES TO PI0CHE, Mr..
WILL FALL ON SAN
PEDRO RAILS.
This is all. but it is enough.

creeping upon Pioche-sev
small transactions were made
this week and a few larger ones
are pending. When the depot
grounds are finally located there
is likely to be something doing
in the realty line.
President John Weir of the
Nevada-Utah M. & S. Corp, and
General Manager Schneider
departed by private conveyance
Thursday for Caliente and from
there they will go to Salt Lake.
Mr.. Weir has spent several weeks

panies vast holdings. He goes

meeting of the officers of the
Phoebe and Caliente railroad.
Mr.. Geo. A. Bethune, recently
from Goldfeld and southern Ne
vada, and later superintendent of
the Nevada Con. at Ely, once
state engineer of Washington,
professor of metullurgy in Cali
fornia, has settled with his
family in Phoebe and will make
this section his base of operation
in the future. Mr.. Bethune has
had a large experience in mining
operations in the west, and after
covering a territory from Butte
to old Mexico he says Phoebe
possess more mineral resources
than any section he has been in
terested in. He is now busily
fitting up an assay office on Ceder
street. where in addition to sery-
ing the public in that line, he
will study the commercial value
of ores here.

THE sNoWsLIDE.

In my cloud-draped liar on the noun
tain side
l am c~rouched, like a wolf of white,
And l wait and watch, and my time
abide,
Till the valley shall feel my bite.
Far, far below. where the snow-fed
stream
Winds on like a silvery thread,
Men gaze at the crags where my white
sides CLEAN
And when comes the day that I loose
my feet
And fling myself from the hill,
No man shall cry, nor shall wild sheep
bleat,
So quick is the white VOLTS kill.
[ strip the trees from the pine-clad
slope
And the mountains great side I cash,
And where is the man who can fight
and hope
When the teeth of the white wolf
gnash?
The stoutest of dwellings like cards
crush,
And l rend men limb from limb,
And, demon-like, l laugh as 1 rush,
And ah, but my laugh is grim!
And We who survive-ye shall know
brief rest,
For above, in my storm-swept den,
Ye shall see the CLEAN of my snow
white breast,
And the white wolf shall crouch
again.
