in her seat and she had to squeeze
onto a seat with one of her compan-
ions to make it look all right.
The reporter had brought several
friends along and they all handed in
fictitious names. When the supposed
owner of these names appeared they
tried to get to them. Each time woman
sitting near the entrance to the cabinet
would put herself i'm the way so that
they could not get by her. When they
finally did succeed the spirit retreated
into the cabinet and the reason was
given that the spirits would not stay
if the people were at all irreverent.
All this time the medium was sup
posed to have been in trance, but
the reporter could hear him moving
around and changing his costumes.
When the lights were turned on the
medium came out, and sticking from
one of his pockets was the filmy stuff
in which the two had arrayed them
selves. The reporter caught hold of
the end of it and started to pull it out.
The medium grabbed it and ran and
locked himself into another room.
The people that night realized the
whole fake that had been practiced
upon them, but the thing had been
going on for several months and the
men had grated quite a bunch of
money.

PARKER'S EOICT
CREATES A ROW
CONSERVATION AMONG THE
WEAK KNEES
Many Candidates Inclined to Assert
Their Independence of Machine
and Make the Race on Nom
Partisan Ticket

shall we assert our manhood or con-
fess that we are the tools of the South
ern Pacific machine?"
This question, as tersely stated by
one of the men involved. VIII be decided
next Tuesday by several nominees of
the Republican county convention.
These men, as stated in yesterday
Herald, have been commanded by wall
ter Parker and the Republican machine
to withdraw from the Democratic and
non-partisan tickets, under pain of be-
ing declared traitors to their party and
no longer worthy of the support of the
Republican party.
In Open Rebellion
Some of the men announced their in
tention not to obey the order from
Parker which they declared was an at
tack upon their manhood and an exht :
bition of unexampled nerve on the part
of the boss, acting in the interest of the
Southern Pacific and the Republican
machine.
II told Walter Parker and the Re-
publican committee that no man or set
of men could control my actions in
such q case" declared one of the NOM
ir,ees. II told them that to obey the
order to withdraw from the Democra-
tic and non-partisan tickets would be
a virtual admission that we wear
Southern Pacific collars However,
after talking with the others involved,
L have decided to abide by the de-
Cision of all the nominees affected, ana
the question will be decided next Tues
day"
Some of the weak -kneed men are said
TO have signitied their Willingness to lie
down and be good dogs" as one of the
nominees expressed it. but 1t is ex-
pected that next Tuesday they will de-
eide to act as u. it with the others.
Parker Makes His Escape
Walter Parker left last night for the
east and he will not return for two
weeks. He announced that he was
going on business, but 1t is charged by
some that he had raised such storm
that he desired to get away from 1t for
IL few days.
His ultmnt'' e., however, was un-
changed. This means that every man
nominated by the Republican conven-
ton and who has been nominated by
the non-partisan committee and the
Democratic convention must, previous
to the return OF the boss. withdraw
from the latter nominations or suffer
political ostracism by the Republican
machine.
Parker's edict issued as a result of
direct orders from headquarters, is
final, and there will be no backdown
on the part of the power behind the
Republican machine.
Liveliest Kind of a Row
AS result of Parkers edict there is
now on the greatest row that has ever
occurred in the Republican camp in Los
Angeles county and which threatens to
disrupt the local Republican machine.
Personal friends of Parker declare
that the boss has made fatal mistake.
They say that the affair has demon
strated the fact that the Republican
party of Los Angeles county is con-
trolled by the Southern Pacific. and that

SEARCHL|GHT
Real Estate Developing
Fortunes

Earnest men and women, who are
seeking reliable investment, ought to
know of the great profits Los Angeles
investors are making on lots in Search
light, Nevada, known as the Camp
Without Failure"
One year ago business lots on Hob
son street sold there for $100. These
lots now sell at $4,000 to $25O0
But property has just started to ad-
vance, and within the past month
thousands of dollars have been made
from moderate investments by our cii-
ents Here are names and facts to
prove our claims:
T. S. Brockenbrow, 2122 South Ver-
mont avenue, bought on August 21,
1906 lot Z, block 4, and lot Z, block 3,
25X150 feet each, on Hobson street. He
has just returned from Searchlight and
was offered $1,000. He bought two resi-
dence lots in the McCord townsite on
August 49, and has since been offered
5000 profit.
State Senator Harry S. Joseph of Salt
Lake City bought on August 10. 1906,
lots 1, 2, and 4, block IL, for $3.50. He
can get $1,000 for this property.
j. A. Crandall, Monrovia, purchased,
after visiting Searchlight, 81 lots in the
TcCord townsite for $4,000. He can take
now $500 advance.
II. r. Wallace, the well-known stock
broker in the Braly building bought lot
5, block IL, about three weeks ago for
5000. This property is salable now at
1915.
Mrs. A. M. Redding. well known in
Los Angeles real estate circles, pur-
chased lots in the McCord townsite
for $1,000 one month ago, and today
$21O0 is the value of her lots.
The above are only few of five hum
dred others who have purchased both
business and residence lots since Aug
ust 6. Every transaction has shown
a profit, and present prices are but the
shadow of those that will prevail when
the Santa Fe railroad is completed In
sixty days.
We can sell you residence lots for $50
within 1900 feet of the center of the
town, and we have business lots on
Hobson street, within one block of the
bank where lots are bringing $25UJ,
that we can sell you for 5000. These
ought to go to $1,000 each in ninety
days We sell on very easy terms
one-third cash and balance in a year
and some lots can be bought as low as
$40 cash and SIS month. Cheap lots
like these in Goldfield advanced to $4,000
and $4,000 in three months.
You can rely on making more money
on less money and in less time in
Searchlight real estate than any other
form of investment This is the psyche
logical moment to buy-just before the
railroad gets in. Call or write today
