SOURCES.

All signs point to a heavy immigra-
tiCn TO Nevada within the next few
years. Her mines and agricultural
possibilities are attracting the attention
OF people everywhere. Al the present
time attention Is centercd on the rich
mining camps Of Nyc, Esmeraldu and
Lincoln counties and on the and en-.
braccd in the reclamation projects now
under way in Churchill, Ormsby and
Storey counties.
Elko county with i!s wonderful posi-.
bilitics in mining, agriculture and stock
raising, seems to be placed in the back
ground, Why this Is il not difficult to
be coDjcctured. Tho press OF the state
has boen filed with stories OF the Won
derful riches OF the new mining camps
Of southern Nevada and the possibilities
Of the land redeemed from dcsolution by
the government. These stories have
been scattered broadcast and have at.
tracted the attention OF people every.

While this has been going on, staid
old Elko county has logged along iii the

content with their lot aud have made
no special effort to attract the attention
OF investors or honeseekcrs. But this
must change il Elko county would rear

A FACT.

In the beef trust cases on trial before
Federal Judge Humphrey Ill Chicago
tho attorneys Tor the packers contend
that because Commissioner Garfield had
the authority to require the packers to
furnish him information concerning
their business, and the packers yielded
to that authority, they are immune from
prosecution.
Several witnesses have testified thai
before submitting his report to the
public Commissioner Garfield presented
proof sheets of the same to the packers
and their representatives,. So clearly
has this been established rs n fact that
cven United States District Attorney
Morrison Ii using that fact in the hope

court Mr.. Morrison said:
1.-The theory OF the government is that
there was an understanding that the

published unless the packers were salts.
fled with the report. We will show that
Mr.. Garfield came back with a type
written copy OF his report which had
not yet been printed and that the pack
ers were ready and anxious to have this
report go to the publisher"
or course it was Illuminating for a
representative of the government to be
required to employ this shameful fact III
order to avoid the tcchincality through
which the packers expect Il dismissal Of
the proceedings.
Whatever the secrets revealed by the
packers to Commissioner Garfield were,
his conclusions amounted to the claim
that the packers were making n very
email amount Of money and in some
instances had actually lost money, and
that there was, i'll fact, 10 such thing
rs Il beef trust. The American people
did not know then that before
that report had been submitted
10 the public it Inns passed under
the critical eye Of the very men
with whose inyestig alton the commIs.
Gioner OF corporations was charged. 1t
was generally believed at time that Mr..
Garfield had not made Il serious investi-
CATION OF the beef trust. But until the
revelations before the federal court ut
Chicago it WIS not known that tho 70.
Gently created department OF commerce
and labor was, in the language OF the
street, playing horse" with the helpless
victims Of greedy monopolists. Yet this
same man who agreed That before his
report was submitted it would be
acceptable to the men under invcstiga-
ton, was assigned to investigate the
Standard Oil trust!

that whatever the outcome OF the beef
