NEVADA RATE CASES
In his argument before the United
states court in the railroad cases, Judge
Bartne practically put the San Pedro,
Los Angeles and Salt Lake railroad
tout" of the suits. The question was
! ,e Of jurisdiction. In order that a
case may Ue nIeu IN Ine UnIteu states
courts the amount involved must be
over the sum of 1000. From the sworn
statements of the officials OF the road ii
appears that the total local freight
affected by the Syphus bill amounts to
little over $1,000.
The railroad argued that the enforce
ment of the maximum rates of the
Syphus bill would mean a reduction OF
about 25 per cent from this amount, a
sum far below the amount required to
gain a hearing IN the United States
court. The move Of Judge Bartine came
as surprise to the railroad attorneys,
and they could not reply to his argu-
ment.
PASSENGER RATES
At the next meeting of the Railroad
Commission, it is stated, several Neva-
da roads will be asked to reduce passen-
ger rates. The question OF freight
rates will necessarily have to await the
decision in the railroad suits now on

HENSHAW TALKS VERY PLAIN
Says Members Of the ConwNtion An.
ticipated Just Such Results as the
Republicans in Power Are
Dealing Out.

The recent decision of the republi-
can judge IN Oklahoma is another one
of the moves of the republicans to
stave off statehood and keep in pow

ing. as they had been informed of the
fact. that the move was to be made
and what seems to be so far success.

These were the remarks made by
G. A, Henshaw, delegate from the Ma.

the leaders OF the floor of the CON

In speaking further on the subject,
Mr.. Henshaw stated that, though the
republicans move the heavens and
the earth, they will not defeat state
hood, and nothing that they can do
will keep us from havi..g statehood.
The convention will not be called
together again as the two decisions
filed by republican judges are in con
/ flict and the convention has met one
time to correct an error and should
the convention meet again II would be
in conflict with the prior decision and
put us in quandary.'

.WESTON'S BIG FIRE.
$4,000 Loss s-Entire Store and Contents
Destroyed-0ther Buildings Burned to the
Ground Schoolhouse and Town Clerks
Office Saved by Heroic Efforts.

At midnight Tuesday, the ad
joining town of Weston was sleep
ing peacefully. A half hour late
she was wide awake to the fac
that she had on hand a most des
perate battle with that dread ele
ment-fre.
Soon after midnight the young
sons of ]. A. Parkhurst discover
ed that the inside of their father 5
store was all ablaze. The alarm
was quickly given, but the family
although occupying the west enc
of the store building, were unable
to cope with the devouring flames,
and indeed barely had time 10 save
themselves and an aged parent.
MIR. Parkhurst' entire stock OF
$1,000 worth of goods together with
practically all the clothing of the
family and all but very small
portion of the furniture were con-
sumed.
The fire quickly spread to F. w.
Bolster's house, soon turning that
into heap of glowing Goals. Near
ly all his household goods were
saved, as were also the entire Wes-
tom Library of thousand volumes
situated in this building.
Not satisfied with the destruction
they had already done the flames
leaped to the schoolhouse and to
Miss Peabody's residence, the lat
ter containing the town clerk S Office
and records. But here the demon
met its match in the heroic efforts
of the FIFE company with its new
fire pump. With $50 feet of hose
in use the company kept the water
playing on these and other build
ings for three hours and secured
control of the situation.
The Phoenix Fire Co. of Lon
donderry vas telephoned to and re-
sponded as quickly as possible with
It's engine; and althoagh the fire
was Under control when tney ar
rived, they aided i'll keeping it there
during the entire forenoon.
The entire loss is estimated al
$4,000. Mr.. Parkhurst had all
insurance of $4,000 on his goods and
$1,000 on his louse and household
effects. Mr.. Bolster had $3.50 in
surance of his property.
The fire was in the heart of the
village and it is small wonder that
the people there feel more than ever
deeply grateful to Mr., Lewis Park
hurst for his recent gift to them of
the fire pump and hose. The tele-
phones and the Phoenix Fire Co.
are receiving many thanks for val
Il able assistance rendered.
This is the second time Nj. Park
hurst has been burned out since en-
tering the mercantile business few
years ago, but his grit is good and
he is already planning to rebuild in
the spring.
