classes are leaving this country and
returning to their homes across the
sea. Each one is taking from $500
to $1,000 with him and it will be a
long time before any of that money
finds it's way back here. If there
was duty of 800 a head placed
on all foreigners landing in this
country it would help out the money
shortage and benefit the laboring
man very much.-Forest Grove

The rich who give monkey din

on the money the many poor put in

Ripe Strawberries, blooming roses
and other midsummer luxuries are
a few of the nice things the people
of Lincoln county are still enjoying.
While the citizens of the eastern
states are shivering around the stoves
wading through snow, and hauling
out grain and hay to their stock,
the Lincoln county farmer is pick
ing his apples, plowing, etc., never
stopping for moment to think this
is winter. His stock is not eating
the feed he put in the barn last
summer, because they do not re-
quire it, there is plenty of good
grass yet. He will probably feed
his stock one or two months in the
late winter or early in the spring.
The eastern farmer works all sum-
mer to put up feed enough to winter
his stock, then works all winter
feeding it out, consequently he is
busy the whole year. Why don't
they come to Lincoln county and
enjoy life.

hibition of cattle, sheep, hogs, chick
ems and horses, there will be other

the coast will have daily run for
first place. 1t will be a week Of rare
sport from the draw gate to the tape
and blooded horses from every sec
ton will be there to contest for the
liberal purses to be hung up. For
several years the Agricultural society
has been sleeping in allegiance, as
Senator Newlands and Colonel Bryan
have frequently remarked when maxi
ing political speeches, but this year
the society has awakened and have
provided for the people of the state
a weeks sport. There will be auto
races, bicycle races, horse races, etc.
Assistant Secretary Phillips and the
board of directors are working hard
to make the coming fair the best
ever held in the state. The railroads
have given half fare rates to all who
may attend. The people of White
Pine county can go to Reno with the
assurance that they will be treated
with distinguished hospitality.

AS A HUNGRY man
WOULD A BEEFSTEAK

RENO, Sept. 3.-In fight in front
of the Commercial hotel on Center
street last night. Pete Etchegoin, a
Frenchman of this city, became vic
ious and endeavored to chew up the
features of his enemy as hungry
man would a good, tender beefsteak.
He managed to bite his rival, August
Armand, several times and at last
snapped his teeth shut on Armand S
upper lip, tearing one side of the lip
in a fearful manner and causing 1t
to hang down over his chin as If 1t
had been slashed with a knife. He
then walked into the Commercial ho-
tel and was taking a drink at the
bar, when placed under arrest by a
policeman.
The officers telephoned to Judge
Bell and the magistrate, not knowing
the facts of the case, ordered them to
allow Etchegoin his freedom on post
ing 800 bail. The bail was i'm
mediately posted and the man Sc
cured his freedom and since that
time he has not appeared at the city
hall to answer to the charge.
August Armand this afternoon
swore out complaint charging Etch-
egoin with mayhem and Judge Bel
states that as soon as he appears his
preliminary will be set. His bail will
also be increased, as the charge war
rants larger bail being posted.
/ Etchegoin and Armand were first
quarreling in the Commercial hotel
barroom, according to the statement
of those who witnessed the trouble
and later went into the street for the
purpose of settling thir grievances
They exchanged several blows after
going into the street and Etchegoin
then tried 20 bite his antagonist. He
nipped him several times and at last
closed his stroug teeth shut on Ar.
mands lip. This put an end to the
fight, as Armand was unable to stand
the pain and had 10 quit.
Mayhem is penitenfiary offense
and In all probability the alleged
n maneater will have to face the grand
q jury If he appears to answer to the
charge against him.

SPECIAL PROSECUTORS
FOR SENATOR B0RAH

BOISE, Idaho, Sept. 3.-Judge Nj.
c. Burch of Denver and S. r. Rush of
Omaha, special assistant attorney
generals, are here to look after the
interests of the government in the
timber land fraud cases pending in
the federal court, including the case
of Senator w. e. Borah. These spe-
cial assistants will relieve District
Attorney N. M. Ruick, who 1t is un-
derstood, will have nothing to do
with the cases except in an advisory
capacity. This change is the result
of charge made by Borah and his
friends that Ruick is prosecuting the
cases for personal reasons. con-
ference between Burch, Rush, Ruick,
Judge Dietrich and Senator Borah
relative to the time of the Borah trial
resulted in no decision being reached
but it was agreed that tomorrow the
date would be set, trial jury called
and Senator Borah furnished with
a copy of the indictment. The trial
will be some time this month.

WHICH PARTY WILL
THE GIRLS ATTEND?
ELY YOUTHS NOT TO BE OUT
DONE BY YOUNG MEN
AT SHELTER.

Ye knights of the days of chiyalry
may have fought harder for their
lady loves than the youths of Ely,
but surely they did not scheme bet

as when knights, by their oaths,
should right poor ladies' harms"
Anyway, the young men of this
city, or at least number of them,
are all but up in arms against the
employees of the Steptoe Smelling
and Mining company. And they
claim that they have good right to
be so, too. AS one of the young
men said:
"Didn't those fellows out at
Shelter try to steal our girls?"
"But we'll fix them," remarked
another. "The girls will have an
other engagement next Saturday

men may go, but you won't find many

They have made arrangements for
giving hard times social and dance
at the spacious hall (the writer
should have said barn) at the Ely
Lumber companys yards. Music has
been engaged, invitations have been
sent out and, according to the young
men, Ely's young ladies have signi-
fed their intention of going to the
local affair and will not take the
train for Smelter.
One of the prime movers in the
scheme said that the young men al
Smelter, many of them being college
men, wanted to have party before
leaving and took advantage of the
fellows" here by inviting their girls
and refusing to invite them. If the
plans are carried out Ely will be min.

MANCHU SUCCESSION
PARAMOUNT ISSUE

PEKING, Sept. 4.--The question
of the Manchu succession, native Of
ficials assert has today become the
paramount topic of deliberation at
the summer palace. One of the ablest
foreign authorities says that more
urgent than a constitution of the op-
posing Chinese and Manchus, is the
question of an heir apparent, which
the dowager empress, the greatest OF
all Manchus. closely identifies with
the continuance and security of the
dynasty. The question has not been
raised since the time subsequent to
the dowager's deposing of rrince
Chun's son. Pu Chun, in accordance
with the protocol of 1901, when a
majority of the imperial clan reaf-
firmed loyalty to Pu Chun. This ac-
ton caused dangerous scandal and
was regarded as an affront to the
powers threatening a removal of COM
plications. A price was placed on
Chun's head, the clan was denounced
and it's activity suppressed
lerious Difficulty.
The urgency of the question of the
succession and the difficulty of its
settlement is serious, owing to the
natural infirmities of the dowager
empress, due to old age, which are
complicated by threats of apoplexy
and also the condition of the EN-
peror, who constantly is reported to
be i'll. He is said to be the victim
of decline, which adds to the pos
sibility of an accident to the throne,
other than that feared from anarch-
lists and revolutionists
In view of her own precedent OF
arbitrarily making Kwang Hsu en-
peror, it is believed that the dowager
empress will declare the heir ap-
parent Independently of the wishes
of the imperial clan.

MUCH DEPENDS UPON
THE MINERS ELECTION

GOLDFIELD, Sept. 3.-Tonight
the miners union will hold an cleo
tion of officers. The result will have
an important bearing upon the pres
ent difficulty between the miners and
the Consolidated company, for II the
conservative element succeeds in
electing its men 1t Is thought that
the present trouble will soon end.
If the radicals show, however, that
their strength Is the greater, the
strike will not only continue. but
other properties will probably be-
COME involved. and the strike may
become general. In this latter event
1t Is thought that the result will be
an open battle between the compan-
les and the union, with the possible
result of "open shop" being declared
by the companies.

EFFORT TO STAMPEDE
TELEGRAPHERS FAILS

KANSAS. CITY, Sept. 4.-There is
absolutely no truth in the report en-

that the operators of the Western

There have been only two deflections
at the Western Union, A. MILAN and
his wife, and two at the Postal, since
the strike began. Only one man went
back at the Associated Press. The

by the telegraph companies for the

but in this they signally failed, for
there is no sign of wavering or weak

THOUGHT TO HAVE
BEEN DROWNED

BOISE, Idaho, Sept. A.
The Rev. William Bretz, pas
tor of the Methodist Episco-
pal church at Ashton, is sup
posed to have been drowned
in the Snake river two miles
from that place. Parties have
been searching the river and
its banks for the past week
without result. Mr.. Bretz
took dinner at The slatery
home at Vernon on August
Goth, and the next heard of
him was from Chris Hansen,
who saw him pass his ranch,
one mile west of Ashton, on
the evening of the same day.
He is supposed to have gone
from there to the river and
crossed at the Williams ford.
His horse came out of the riv-
er, and had only its bride
on. Search was instituted,
and a fish pole and saddle
we're found in the stream.
The I. o. o. F. of Ashton, Of
which the minister was a
member. has offered a reward
of $25 for the recovery of the
