The White Pine news. [volume] (Ely, Nev.) 1906-1910, 1907-10-14

He was of the class that preys on the
weak and the unfortunate, the kind
that lure and drag women down to
the level of the beast and then hold
them in thralldom and extort from
them the earnings of their shame.
Be it said to the credit of the
townspeop1e of Ely that such as this
man occupy their proper place in the
social scale here. That place is so
far below the level of the average
citizen, that the average citizen does
not even recognize their existence.
Until short time ago this town
was fortunate enough in that there
were but few of this class of persons
here. The growing prosperity of the
camp, the increasing volume of
money in circulation, the period of
temporary depression that has set
tied upon some of the other camps
of the state, have combined to at
tract to Ely too many of the type
of creatures of which the dead man
was an example. There has hereto
fore been little lawlessness among
the. denizens of the prescribed dis
trict. These unfortunate persons
have been content to exc out their
miserable existence In their shame
less calling, without Haunting them
selves too prominently in the faces
of decent people. They have been
content to keep within the limits of
the laws and ordinances which in a
measure tolerate their existence.
But with that colony augmented by
the influx of others of the same class,
attracted by the prosperity of the
camp, and by the opportunity of
making a little easy money" the
situation is one that now demands
prompt and radical attention from
the officers of the city and county and
by the public generally.
Until the deplorable tragedy of
Saturday night in which a brave Of
ficer, clean citizen and honorable
man was laid low by the bullets from
the vampires weapon, but little at.
tention has been paid to these UNI
fortunates and those who prey on
them.
The shooting of Constable Gilbert
from all that can be learned, was q
most cowardly and craven crime
Public sentiment should be, and is
on the part of clean minded law
abiding citizens who respect the
good name and fair name of this
town and this district.
Mayor Clark, short time after
the shooting of Constable Gilbert
made the statement to thi!
paper, that thorough investigation
would be made at once into the shoot
ing of Constable Gilbert and what
ever steps may be required will BIZ
taken to clear the town of the un
desirable class of men of which San
ders was an alleged type.
The words of Mayor Clark will be
responded to most heartily by every
clean minded man in the camp
Whatever help Mayor Clark may re-
quire in carrying out this program
will be given by the public at large
The sentiment is that every mac
quereau in the camp shall be com
PEELED to leave, and without cere
mony.

ALL READY FOR BIG CONCERT
DRESS REHEARSAL TO-DAYAT 2 P. M.--SOLOISTS TO BE PRESENT.

Large Advance Sale Assures Brilliant
 Attendance-"German Requiem" to
 be Sung First--A Greut Choral Work
 We'll Sung.
 All the soloists who are to take part in the New Haven Oratorio society's production of Brahms German Requi- em" and Mendelssohn's Hymn of Praise" in Woolsey hall tonight have written to say that they will be here to-day in time for the dress rehearsal in Woolsey hall this afternoon. This rehearsal will begin promptly at two o'clock, and the entire concert force, augmented orchestra, organist and big chorus, will be seated on the stage.
 Everything is ready for the important oduction-perhaps the most import ant in the musical record of the chorus and certainly nothing the chorus Ilas done has attracted more attention from all musical New England, even as far off as Boston.
 Certainly nothing the society has ever done has entailed harder work in the preparation. It has all paid, however for the effect of the Brahms music, with its massive, majestic chords, is in- expressibly beautiful.
 The vast audience that will hear the concert tonight will not only hear one of the most perfect examples of choral writing we have in musical literature, but it will also hear admirable choral singing.
 The German Requiem will be given first, and in this work the soloists will be Mrs. Genevieve Clark Wilson, so- prano, and Claude Cunningham, bari tone
