The Beers have gained at the ballot
box what they lost on the battlefield.
They have now a distinct majority In
the South African Parliament. with the
destinies of the country handed over
to them. Gen. Louis Botha. their old
leader in war time, is now their poIiti-
cal leader. They no longer dream OF
independence. but Of making South
Africa great. and have formed a politi-
cal party which declares that the ques-
ton of the flag has been settled for all
time" and is now outside of politics.
The importation of Chinese coolies to
work the mines gave the Boer party the
victory by bringing over to them the
English who were bitterly opposed to
flooding the country with the vicious
Asiatics. The Beers will not send the
coolies back, however. until their places
can be supplied by other laborers.

GUN CLUBS
COMING BALL
Preparation Made For Elaborate
Time...TOwnsite Bus Service
For Convenience of Attendants

Members of the Ely Gun club and
their friends are looking forward
with pleasurable expectancy to the
big ball which will be given by the
club Friday evening at the skating

tainment are already taking form and

the guest when he enters the rink.
A special committee of two has been
appointed to shoot wild ducks which
will be strung around the wall, while
blooded bird dogs will be tethered to
the walls. The walls and ceiling will
be festooned with bunting, the club
colors prevailing in the scheme. To
furnish music for the occasion Hoyt s
orchestra has been retained This in
itself is an attractive feature. An
other and no less pleasing feature
will be the serving of refreshments
One end of the hall will be set apart
for this purpose and light eatables
and turntables dispensed during the
entire evening.
The committee which will have
charge of the entertainment are: r.
Fl. Hastie, John Dunphy, A. J. Fes-

ton committee is composed of J. L.

Rate to Ogden and Salt Lake.
Round Trip for Price One Way.

The Nevada Northern will today
announce excursion rates for the hoil-
day season. These will be one fare
for the round trip from Ely and Ely
City to Ogden and Salt Lake. Gen
eral Passenger Agent Toll of the rail-
road said yesterday that rates to
other points might be announced
later, upon receipt of advices which
have been asked of other roads as to
holiday arrangements that might be
made.
One fare for the round trip to Og-
den and Salt Lake means $3.50 for
the first named trip and $3.50 for
the second. In previous years the
roads traversing Nevada have always
held at a rate of fare and a third
for the round trip. Mr. Toll is not
advised whether the Southern Pa
cifc will adhere to this during the
present season of whether a one fare
rate for the round trip will prevail.
This rate is good from the goth of
this month up an January |, and
good returning until January 3.
