MINERS PREPARE
FOR BlOOD5HED
TROUBLE EXPECTED AT OPEN
ING OF RESERVATION
GoIdfeld Citizens Accuse Govern
ment Officials Of Securing Valu=
able Mineral Claims In
Advance
BY Asse cinteH l,ress.

l
GoLDFIELD, New, Oct. 20.-As the
! date of the opening of the Walker
River Indian reservation approaches
all Nevada is in ferment OF excite
ment.
Four thousand prospectors and min
ing men are camped on the borders
Of the reserve waiting the hour of IL
O'clock Nj onday. Octooer 30, the hour
and the day set by proclamation of
the president for the formal opening
of the reservation,
This number will be augmented by
other thousands as it is thought that
the reservation is a rich mineral bear
ing region. Even before the tract was
set aside for the Indians, mines were
being worked in various parts of what
is now the reserve and while under
their ownership the Indians have
worked several smaller mines and
prospects to great advantage.
The Goldfield News came out today
in a leading editorial charging con-
spiracy on the part OF government Of
flcials in securing i'm advance the best
of the mineral lands of the reservation
for themselves and their friends.
The News says a small army of ia
vored ones have been on the reSerVa-
tion for months armed with permits
and they had the aid of the Indians,
through bribery locating the most
valuable mineral deposits.
A dozen Goldfield mining men with
personal and political pulls have had
their prospectors on the reserVa tion
for some time, and they make no Sc
cret of the fact.
Knowing these facts, the people of
this section are greatly aroused and
are determined that they will not per-
nit their rights to an equal show on
the reservation to be stolen from them.
Hundreds of miners have left Cold
field for Walker Camp. They go in
parties and all are heavily armed.
They expect bloodshed.
They will not recognize any location
stakes found on any claim at the noon
hour OF the opening day and they will.
respect the claims of no man found
on the ground before that hour.
The News further asserts that the
opening was not officially advertised
as We're other openings and none of the
usual formalities were observed so
that the people generally could be pre-
nared for the opening.
1t is charged that the early date was
set and the usual formalities waived
so that the few would not be molested
In acquiring the ground already Sc
lected by their agents.

SUCCESS
Infants Of All Nations Delight Big
Crowd Of Friends and Workers
OF the Congregational
Church

Blue eyes and brown eyes, eyes that
were large and eyes that were slanted;
ewes wide awake and eyes that were
sleepy. were in a bewildering display
at the baby show yesterday afternoon
at the East Los Angeles Congregational
church, veritable carnival of nations.
Commencing early In the afternoon,
fond mothers with pretty children
wended their way to the church on DAILY
street, until one could hear a steady
hum Of infantile voices on nearing the
church building.
Babies from six weeks to three years
old were to be seen, and for so large a
number were remarkably well DenaVed.
Each little tot seemed to be on Its good
behavior and caused It's own particular
mother little trouble.
There were two Navajo indian babies,
one a papoose one month old, six Chi
mere. three Japanese, five Russians, one
German and three African babies, be-
sides $50 American little tots who We're
on show.
Only one pair Of twins was present,
and these were two African babies
whose wee nut-brown faces looked out
of the whitest of white DonnetS WIN
pretty little pink ribbon ties.
Babies with blue ribbons, babies with
pink ribbons, babies with knots and ba-
bies with bows, were everywhere to be
seen-and admired.
Papooses Are Attractive
The little Navajo Indians, with their
fond mamnas, were the center of at
traction. The little papoose, only one
month old, fat and hearty, caused no
end of comment, and strapped to the
board. the cradle of the Indian, so that
it could move neither hand nor foot,
it caused much comment by the Ameri-
can mothers, whose little tots hands

and feet seemed one mass of little pink
tootsie wootsies
But little Navajo made himself heard,
for when the crowd was the thckest
he didn't like so many people coming
and looking at him and talking In a
strange language which he couldn't un-
derstand at all, and so many pale-faces
made his nervous, anyway, so he cried
cried as only the brave OF the Navajo,
n future warrior can. And he made
himself heard-well, for some distance,
and everybody set about to please Sir
Navajo After sampllng ice cream and
candles and various other articles Of
fered to him. he fell asleep, and then
was admired by the pale faces. The
other little Indian was a good little In
dian, and stayed with his mother He
was pretty little child of years, With
glistening black eyes,
Chinese Tots Are Popular
The little Chinese children, one In
national dress, were next in interest
One little Chinese face, framed In big
white hat with pink bows, was cute
while the little sleepy tot In native
dress was "tust a little darling"
Little Helen Kendis, daughter Of Mr..
and Mrs. Hends of 445 North Grand
avenue was the little queen of the aft
ernoon. In a simple white frock, low
necked and short sleeved, with big
pink bow holding IN place her dark
curls, and with pink shoes and stock
ings completing her infantile toilet,
rnunchlng a cornucopia of pink Ice
cream. she was the admired pet Of The
assemblage.
Little Miss Helen's infantile graces
lay largely i'm her baby innocence Her
big blue eyes-eyes that will cause
heart aches in the future-were turned
in wondering amazement on the be-
holders as she ate her ice cream, sym
phony in pink and white.
And then beside the live babies, there
were doll babies for sale-baby dollies.
mamma dollies. nurse dollies and every
kind of a dollie that could be liked.
mothered, scolded and put to bed. And
these were purchased by fond mammas,
and before the afternoon was over near
ly every child was hugging a dollie.
Refreshments We're served by the
women in charge of the event, and n
neat sum was realized which will be
used for church work. The event was
given by the Woman's Work society of
the church, of which Mrs. J. H. Craw-
ford is president, Mrs. J. A. McGraw
treasurer and Mrs. John Pech secre-

night because of an engagement to de-

should leave Denver this afternoon
He spoke for twenty minutes, how
ever, from baggage truck at the unioi.
depot while waiting for the regular
Burlington train to depart at 4:35, ad.
dressing more than one thousand peo-
pie.
While he was speaking snow fell
steadily and the cold wind which was
blowing made his audience restless.
Enthusiasm was rife, notwithstand-
ing the discouraging weather condi'
tions, and Mr.. Bryan was cheered as
he made pointed references In his re-
marks,
Mr.. Bryan approved of the action of
the Colorado state Democratic con-
vention in unseating the Speer dele
cation from the city and county of
Denver, admitting that the unseating
of regular delegation was unques-
tionably radical. but con tending that
sometimes it became necessary be
cause of the influences which sought
TO control the org lnization.
He declared that the great issue be-
fOre tne people now was whether tlt
people should rule the country or cor
poration interests should be given the
rein.
Private monopoly had thrived so
long under Repubic lean rule, he said,
that the people had unwittingy sur
rendered the right to govern them
selves Legitimate corporations should
be controlled, he asserted, but private
monopoly soon became so arrogant
and all-powerfu that the peoples
rights faded away and their power to
govern vanished.
He concluded by advising all who
voted for him in 1896 and 1900 to vote
the straight Democratic ticket again
