Upon his return from Was hington
several days ago the Time Recorder
requested of Hon. T.. B. Lewis, our
immediate and able representative in
Congress. an expression of his views
upon the work of the session just clos
ed. With characteristic courtesy the
request was complied with, and Mr..
Lewis very interesting letter follows:
Editor Times Recorder:-To ours re-
ceiyed. asking for an expression of my
opinion upon the work of the seth Con-
gress. on account of the many acts
of kindness and the courtesies your
paper has always extended to me. it

Under the Constitution OF United

passed into law at first session: the act
creating an Interstate and Commerce
Commission with power 10 regulate
railroads so as TO prevent discrimina-
ion between shippers: also TO regulate
The railroads charges for hauling
freight. In my opinion this was one of
the most necessary and important facts
Of leglsIation in many years, and the
honor and credit for it is largely due TO
the Democratic party and President
Roosevelt.
The Democrats in and out OF Con-
gress had eontended and urged Gov
eminent control of the railroads, but
could not be successful until the Presi-
dent, in q determined way ,championed
The Democratic theory. The good
effects of this wise legislation is unfold

EDITORIAL COMMENT
WONDER THE CAMP OF DESTINY.

Like Godfeld, Wonder has been most appropriately named, aad
in it's development. it is living up to its name in all respects It was
discovered a little more than a year ago. but it wa fully six months
after the first location before anything like development work a done
in the district. The name of the camp began to go out TO the world
after the purchase OF the original location BY the people of the Tonopah
Mining Company.
The mining men Of Tonopah and Godheld. always ready to take q
chance o any new country, were among the first to get into the new
camp. and where these people go. development is sure to follow. The
wise men Of the East yer not long in following the lead of the Nevada
since. slAsf
Wonder is a name with which to conjure. and that is by no means
me best that is to be said Of the camp. They have the ore there and
they have lots of it, There is yet to be heard the first knock on the
district The camp lis a milling Is well IS a hgh-grade proposition
Shipments have been made from the yulture mine; the Nevada Wonder,
the mine OF the Tonopah Company people, has tons and tons of milling
pre- O the dump. ard has highgrade besides
The Spider-Wasp. which has been determined by mining experts
from all parts TO be one of the biggest properties in Nevada. has had
a most extraordinary record up to date. and is getting better all the
time. This mine has n less than six leases on it from which shipping
re is being taken and sacked. When the condition of the roads are
such that transportation will be more feasible, the production from Won
der will astonish the world.
Tonopah has always been big enough to give credit where credit is
fair to become her greatest rival in the state. Tonopah welcomes such
like II. Wonder is similar to Tonopah in many respects, and if there
veop the richness Of this camp, and at this time this looks very much
like a wish which might be verified.
At any rate. Wonder has got a good start on her own account. She
has the mines to boost them. That is a combination which is hard
to beat and in this case it cannot be beaten. All hail to Wonder.

is ENTITLED TO THE WORST OF 1T.

There arc people in this world who are always looking for the best
Of ii, and who often get the worst OF it. There are a few OF the species
in Tonopah. although there is nothing personal in this declaration.
A man OF this description can make miserable the lives of others
and must be always miserable himself; but this latter proposition does
at seem to worry him. He is forever sticking his nose into other peo-
pies business, and sometimes getting it pulled. He enters into an en-
serprise with a number Of colleagues, all intent upon doing the right
thing by one another. Then Just when the point comes where every
thing is about complete. he stands out for just that little best OF it."
He must get what he wants. or then enterprise must fail.
This sam sort of a man joins with others and let's the others do all
the work; then he comes forward, either to claim the credit, or to find
fault He has nothing better to offer; he has only criticism to make,
and wants to know where he can get a little better than those who have
done the work He will delay action until he gets what he wants. And
be will get it. o there will be a grand bust up"
How often have W seen this man in the formation of mining com
panies, DR. in the partnership of mines. How many deals have gone
gImmering, because the man who wanted the best of it was of the
parties. And the result has been, 50 often, when honest men refuse to
be stood up. the property has slipped through their fingers.
The man who always wants the best Of it, is entitled to the worst
Of it. When possible. he should be kicked out like any other snaring
cr. When this is impossible. he should be posted as the man to be-
war OF. t. be avoided as a business partner r an associate. When
you find him looking for the best of it, make it your business to give
him the worst of IT,

We have received the best kind of

The Bronco is one OF the early

THE IGNORANT WIFE.

Here is a new recipe for success which we reproduce, Typography
and all. from al editorial article entitled "Womans Grand Power"
printed in the Philadelphia Sunday Item:
IAN man has to do is to take a strictly uneducated girl. marry her, to
gain her complete confidence. then ask her GENTLY and LOVINGLY, to
look with him into any BUSINESS PROBLEM he has in mind for their
MUTUAL BENEFIT.
Give her a little time to think and collect her undeyeloped talents
and insight O. instinct. call it what you like. Don't hurry her, give her
days, or weeks, If necessary and she may. and under favorable conditions
WILL. sTARTLE you WITH HER PRACTICAL THOUGHTS AND
KNOWLEDGE"
The novel thing in this suggestion is that the young a who
wants to get o N in the world is admonished to marry a strictly unedu-
Gated girl" That the right woman can make a practical success of a
mans career is commonplace. If he marres a wealthy girl, the problem
of life is solved at the start II he marries a socially clever one, her
hnesse should land him in a sinecure. If he marries al Industrious and
eerned, then and there; the seer is set for everybody works but faith
err" But a strictly uneducated girl"-why prefer such a speculation to
the conservative and reliable investments to which we have animad-
Eerted?
We think we know why. The author is one of those who exalt
womans intuition. She is the vehicle of a wisdom higher than herself
Every girl who has not been spoiled by learning anything has a streak OF
the oracle in her. Her very simplicity certifes her adequacy, a S poor

We should welcome, however. some contemporary evidence leading,

ray has evolved. If any Of our enterprising unmarried readers care to
try this road to success and espouse a strictly uneducated girl al a BUSH

THE WOMAN IN THE CASE
BY CUNNINGHAM

Horror possesses me even now at the men
ton of Glencoe. The little village seemed
innocuous enough Hemmed in on the west
by chuckiing little brook, which abounded
in fish, it nestled among the hills like do
mesticated hen in heap of straw.
Here 1 was spending weeks vacation:
dawdled about my uncles tavm-one OF
the most extensive in that regiOn-or laZlly
lolled about the little country bank of which
my uncle was president.
None of this is of sufficient moment to any
one else to be worth chronicing. But events
happened within the month which changed
the even tenor of several lives.
Uncle, whose big, fine country place is
that which saw two miles out on the STRAIT
ton road?'' | asked, idly.
We'll, sir" answered my uncle, that place
belongs to Hamilton Glencoe, the son of
wealthy farmer for when this village was
named. His father was . fne old fellow who
lived sabeFfy zhonsshly. The saRzsEs of q

That's a pity" remarked absently.
sHis wife is in retreat for the incurably

time at Glencoe Place, living quietly and be

him about it and you can try your iuck

Ing toward the postofice at young lady
who had just come out. THAT isn't Glen

quiet garb and the distinct dignity of her
carriage branded her as something different
Yes, he's home now" answered my
uncle, but he is leaving today.
"Uncle" | asked, abruptly changing the
subject, who is that young woman across
the way?'
The old fellow smiled.
"Ah. van! The Chattertons always have
an eye for pretty woman! But ! don't
know this one. A summer boarder, dare
say. The woods down here are full or EN-
/ continued to stare at the lady, wishing
she would lift the blue chiffon veil which
effectually protected her complexion from the
wind. But she passed on, out of my sight,
