THEY SAY

That two millionaire lumbermen Of
Eau Claire, Wisconsin. have been in
dicted with Senator Borah in the Id
aho lumber frauds.
That in the past an American
criminal who happened to be rich
was comparatively safe
But that money cannot always
buffalo the law;
That with a few more men like
Judge Lands in authority rich thieves
will think twice before they plunder
the people.
That If you know a news item
you should tell it to the reporter
And the World will tell it to the
town
That an army doctor died in Was1-
ington yesterday from mosquito bite,
the insect having previously been al
lowed to sting yellow fever patients;
That the doctor realized the risk
he took
But that he gave his life willingly
to establish a truth invaluable to
medical science;
And yet there are selfish souls
who say that every man has his
price, and cares only for the money.
That the Delsarte girl is threaten
ed with eclipse;
That tight lacing is again IN vogue,
And that sixteen inches is the
fashionable circumference.
That mean man at dance spied
la girl utting chewing gum under a,
chair; -
That he took the gum, spread it
out, inserted piece of tobacco, roll
ed the gum up again and stuck it
under the chair.
That when she put the gum in her
mouth the tobacco began to work and
she didn't dance anymore.
That little girls shouldn't chew
tobacco.
That night-marshall Webb kept
a close watch on the moon the other
night.
Because he heard somebody say
! that 1t was too young to be full
That the famous Tutner orchard
has become a Mecca for sight-seers;
That It's worth the trip
+. That a lukewarm Jag escaped the
vigilance of the police yesterday, and
floated harmlessly OF into the rhu-
barbs;
That yesterdays ball game was
sensational stunt;
! That whenever one side got ahead
the umpire would call few men out
to even up the score, and keep the
game interesting
| That a local lawyer went mountain
climbing yesterday;
That today he has his feet in
sling.
That Medford, Oregon, is catching
the eye of a lot of Wenatchee peo-
| pie.
| That some inherent calamity shout
ers are complaining that the city
council never does anything"
That these "Blighters" should at
tend one of the weekly sessions and
get wise to thing or two;
That the members are all business
men, having personal affairs de-
laanding their whole time;
Yet they give hours OF each week
20 city affairs, doing their intelligent
best to make Wenatchee good place
to live at least expense to the tax
payers;
That they don't get a cent for
their work;
! And that the man who kicks
against the results they get deserves
to be made to serve on the board
six months:
That this punitive arrangement

Weed Out the Wildcats

and most efficient way to put stop
to their nefarious practice is for the
men of Nevada to get together and
organize into a strong body and with
sufficient funds run to ground and put
behind the bars any and every one
who undertakes to promote fraud
ulent mining companies of Nevada.
In conversation with Capt. w. l..
Cox, of Reno, recently, he expressed
himself as bitterly opposed to such
practices and openly stated that his
tlrm would be one of hundred firms
that would put up the sum of $1,000
for the purpose of creating a fund to
hunt down and prosecute every indi-
vidual Or firm that was practicing
fraud and deception upon the public
with fake Nevada mining schemes.
Capt. Cox has sounded the bugle
call to war upon the takers, now it
lies with the business men of Nevada
to fall in and enlist in this movement
and with a combined effort on the
part Of our leading men an organiza-
tion can be perfected that will strike
terror to the hearts of the takers, who
have in the past waXed fat on Nevada
and her mining industry.
If the leading brokers will combine
with the members OF the Nevada Edi-
torial Association they can form an
organization that will be effective and
stamp from our midst the faker and
the wild-catter and make Nevada the
safest state in the Union for the min
| ing investor and regain the confidence
Of the stoCb-buying public, and
Nevada stocks will soon rise to the
figures that they are entitled to, and
then there will be a steady demand
for all stocks endorsed by the new
organization.

The following article from the Man

Nevada's mining industry can never
grow until the swindlers are weeded

Now is the time for those Of
Nevada, who are interested in her
mines and the advancement of all in
terests pertaining to mining, to get
together and perfect an organization
for the protection of those interests
against the wild-caters and the fraud
ulent mining promoters. Every camp
in Nevada is cursed with them and
every camp and every legitimate min
ing promotion has suffered.
AS rule these fake promoters
come from out the State. very few if
any Nevadans stoop to the methods
employed by the faker. In most
cases they acquire property, usually
in a good location, adjacent or near

mine. They take bond upon the
property, make a small payment down
and give a bond for the balance of
the money. Then they go 10 the East
