What the administration is after

picking targets which promise the

the greatest benefits, but most direct

would like to hear the sweet music of

the time when you had to pay fifty
cents at the drug store for a bottle Of
Whoopins Cough Syrup, but after
Roosevelt broke up the drug trust you
could buy It at the department stores

The jubilation of the tobacco farmer
over the rap to the fertilizer trust,
which might enable him TO grow his

The strides II the cement industry in

years have been something extraordln-

TROUBLE BREWING AT GOLDfIELD
Governor Sparks Called On For
Aid to Quell Threatened
Labor Strike.

Goldfeld, June 2.-Governor Sparks
10 expected to arrive in this place and
personally supervise the quelling OF I'M
pending troubles which are assuming
large proportions. The difficulty that
the authorities face is the fact that there
is no State militia to call upon for aid in
this crisis, aud it is believed that the
Federal Government will have to be ap-
pealed to in order to get necessary mill
tary assistance.
There is threatened crisis in the in
dustrial conditions in the Goldfield dis
trict. For some time the Industrial
Workers of the World has been organic
ing in every branch Of business and in
dustry. including servant girls, mes
senger boys, typewriters. stenographers
and many other lines of activity not
hitherto covered by unionism. On May
26 representatives Of the institution
called upon the manager of the Western
Union office here and served him with Q
notice that demanded all operators in
his office. and messenger boys should
join the Industrial Workers of the
World by June 1.
Yesterday these representatives again
called on the telegraph manager and in
quired whether the step demani led had
been taken by him. He replied that it
nad not been, aud was informed that
unless it were complied with by We'd
nesday, the Western Union Telegraph
Company's office in Goldfield wouli be
closed by force.
The citizens of Goldfield are greatly
excited over the order and fear there
will be trouble. For several days the
messengers have been on strike.

Railroad to fill the vacancy caused by
the resignation Of Alonzo Trip. Mr.
Hedden was formerly employed by the
New York, New Haven s. Hartford
Railroad. rising from the position of
operator.
The mine owners Of Fairview,
Churchill County. and the miners are
having difficulty in adjusting the wage
scale. and unless some concessions are
granted by the mine owners. q strike is
threatened. The working men demand
a scale Of $3.50 per day for eight hours
work, while the operators claim that
they will pay q maximum Of "a for the
same length Of time.
Students Of the University of Nevada
living south of Reno were taken back
last week when they presented applica-
tions to the Virginia & Truckee Rail-
road for rates to their homes. They
were met with the bluff statement that
suo oPPAAOouons Will uot oo IeooS ui1ou
and that full fare will be demanded by
the company. The Southern Pacific
and other Nevada railroads are still
granting rates to students.
James Mahoney. captain Of the lately
disbanded National Guards of Virginia
City. Nevada. says the action Of the
Governor ordering their disbandment
was unwarranted and closes with the
following: "The State provided US no
uniforms. no equipment. no nothing.
We were guardsmen in name only. In
case of trouble we would be made scape
goats for the whole State. II the State
expects national guards she should at

ships she underwent when she and
Wingfield were poor. In her complaint.
she is seeking a divorce and alimony.
She claims that she became the COM

treated her with the greatest cruelty
and finally divorced her. She has en-
ployed A. l.. Nickles to bring her suit,
and Nickles says it will be vigorously
prosecuted. as Mrs. WinRfield, or Miss
Barrie. is determined to obtain her full

The principal effort of the plaintiff s
attorney will be to establish that she is
