\ MOLIY-CODDLE EISTTCUFF.

Referring to the comparatively
mild fight between Williams and De
Almond in the House last week. the
New York World thinks they are
.Molly-coddles" in comparison to the
fight it thus relates:
More than a century z Matthew
Lyon, of Vermont. and Roger Girls
of Vermont, set the standard
of Congressional rough-and-tumble
fighting. Lyon spit IN Griswold's
face. and when the House refused to
expel the member from Vermont,
Griswold avenged himself one norm
ing after prayer by beating Lyon
over the head with a heavy cudgel
until both contestants fell fighting to
the floor. while the speaker looked
with manifest delight"

OTHER GOOD WORK.

The Democratic party in North Car

ton, will lessen the wniskey evil and
regulate public service corporations.
The Durham Herald. foreseeing the
success of both, asks:
With the railroad matter settled
and the State solid for prohibition.
what will the party find to turn its
hand to?'
There will be plenty Of good work,
but the two most important tasks will
be to build good roads and improve
public schools, while introducing need
ed reforms n economies in govern
men There will always be problems
to solve and reforms to introduce call
ing for craftsmanship and zeal for the
common veal. Special interests and
selfish desires are, always seeking adj
vantage, and the party must stand
against these as we'll as against i'm
moral agencies and disregard Of the
just rights of the people.
Referring to the criticism of Sena-
tor Davis for appointing his
to positions. the Charleston News and
Courier asks if the opportunity will
be overlooked for a general exploita-
ton of Congressional nepotism. 1t
should not be. Public officials have
no right to crowd the public places
with their own relatives. Sometimes
relatives are as efficient as others, but
IL lost cases it is otherwise.

BOOSTER TRAVERS
BACK IN NEVADA
SAYS THE EAST is DEEPLY IN
TERESTED IN OUR
MINES.

James w. Travers, one OF the pro-
prietors of the Round Mountain Mug
get, and largely interested in Round
Mountain, returned yesterday after
an absence of ten months in the
East Mr.. Travers visited the prin-
cipal cities of the East, putting in
most of his time in Philadelphia.
THE people out here, said he,
have no idea of the great interest
that is taken in the East in the
stocks and properties of Nevada.
There is hardly a town of any size
that is not well represented in the
stocks of this section. The people
look eagerly for the papers from
here, and devour every item of news
about the mines, and they keep in as
close touch as we do ourselves. There
are five big brokerage houses In
Philadelphia where the papers are
| kept on file, and these rooms are
crowded all the time.
The people, principally tnose o
the middle classes, have been III
against Wall street for long time
and they were badly pinched by thu
recent slump. They have tired o
the so-called industrials, and the,
are now seeking investment in tn
Nevada stocks. There is plenty o
capital in the East for investmen
out here, and you will see it heade'
this way just as soon as the financia
stringency is at an end. Condition
are improving wonderfully in tn
East, and money is getting easier a
the time. look to see the creates
market we have ever had during tn
coming year.

RAWHIDE WILL
BE GREAT CAMP
MINING MAN SAYS THE SURFACE
SHOWING Is SOMETHING
WONDERFUL.

A. ID. Renfro, the well known auto
mobile man, arrived here yesterday
from Rawhide, and he is another
boomer from and for that booming
camp. He is so enthused over the
outlook that he is establishing auto
mobile lines in there from Schurz
and Tonopah, and he has one already
in from Reno.
Conditions as | found them he
said, give me the impression that
Rawhide is destined to be one of the
greatest camps in the State. Two
of the best properties there, the Tiger
and Royal claims, have been taken
by Tonopah men and the deal,
think, viii be consummated tomor-
row. took a man in from Reno,
and there is no better mining man
in the country. He has had his ex-
perience in Alaska, Arizona, Old
Mexico and Colorado, and has been
in the business for thirty years, and
has made it a paying business, for
he is a man of big capital.
"He told me that Rawhide has the
best surface showing that he ever
saw in any camp in his life. He
spent week there, and saw everv-
thing that was to be seen. He said
that there is enough ore on the
dumps of the leasers, if their shafts
did not extend more than fifty feet,
to keep ten-stamp mill busy for
the next ten years.
There is plenty of high grade,
plenty of it. You can stand on the
main street and look up at one noun
tain which must be a mile wide, ana
the entire mountain side is covered
with the work of leasers. / saw five
or six leases where there are 500 OF
500 sacks of ore piled up, and I wal
assured that the ore will go from
5000 to $500 ton.
There are at least three differen
parties who are figuring on putting
| in mills there. There is plenty 0
water, all of which is hauled iron

of any lack of it. There is also plent
of fuel, all of which is packed in.
think it sells for $50 a cord. TIL
accommodations are fine, and board
ing and lodging are both very res
sonable. They talk of there bein
no money in Rawhide. This is mis-
take, for l saw lots of it, and Their
is very little indication of sufferin
in the camp"

Miners in ALASKA

SEATTLE, Wash, Dec. 28.-B. H.
Casey Moran, pioneer of Alaska
and editor of the Fairbanks News,
has arrived in Seattle. He is on his
way south and east as the special
representative of the large mining
and commercial interests of the Tan
ana. His mission is to advertise the
Tanana and its resources and, Incl
dentally, to explain the true labor
situation in that country. He will
visit San Francisco and New,York.
when | left Fairbanks there was
prospect of an early settlement OF the
labor troubles in the Tanana," he
said today. THE basis of, the settle
ment, was so cents an hour in winter
and 60 cents in summer and board
and lodging. William J. Steffelson,
organizer for the Western Federation
of Miners, has shown himself a con-
sentative, clear-headed man of action
and the mine owners were fortunate
in having him to deal with. There
is work for 1000 more men in the
Tanana, or will be, because enough
men have left that country to follow
new strikes, depicting the labor mar
ket in our region. Men in position tc
grubstake themselves should moi
hesitate to try the north.
New discoveries are made every
day, and there is but a fraction o.
the country under pick and shovel.

Tells OF RICHES
OF VALDEZ PLACERS

SEATTLE, Dec. 2S.-Peter Mona
han, discoverer OF gold on Valdez
creek and owner of the Tammany
Hall claim, is in Seattle. The new
diggings are placers and enough gold
has been taken from them to Justify
the prediction that another fabulous
ly rich camp has been located.
Monahan has been prospecting in
the country since 1908, when, with
John GARRISON, James Smith, Dick
Winmiller and John johnson, he went
over the Valdez glacier, prospected
the headwaters of the Susitna river
and struck pay on Valdez creek, talk
| ing out $1100 by rocking and pan
ming.
John Van subsequently Joined the
partnership and big outfit was then
taken in. A stampede from Fair
banks followed and Monahan and his
party took out $50. They have
put in improvements each year since,
and have taken out fairly large quar-
titles of gold. He says that on the
Tammany Hall claim test run was
made recently which averaged $1,000
a day.

NEWLANDS LOOMS
in PUBLIC EYE

WASHINGTON, Dec Ex-senator
Newlands of Nevada has been occupy
ing a large space in the public eye
recently. He has been very active IN
advancing the policies of the Presi-
dent regarding the conservation of
the natural resources of the country,
and he has been the dinner host Of
William Jennings Bryan and his
daughter, while the Peerless One"
was in Washington. He has been the
virtual head of the Inland Waterways
Commission, and he presided at the
meeting of the Deep Waterways Con-
vention in Philadelphia, at which he
, was also one of the principal speak
ers, making, the Ledger said. a
memorable" address. In fact, the
prominence of the Senator in nation
al affairs has prompted a number OF
papers in the East and South to re-
mark that he would be good presiden-
tial timber To this the Senator
laughs and replies that he does not
wish to deprecate his own abilities
but that he realizes the existence oil
certain geographical limitations.
At the Philadelphia convention the
Nevada Senator was introduced al
being from that magnificent mari
time State, Nevada" OF course thi!
raised laugh. A gentleman from
Georgia alluded to Newlands as ;
Democrat with Republican proclivi
ties. Newlands replied that it wa
true he supported the President il
some things, but, he said, they wer
Democratic principles which the Pres
ident had espoused.
If the Nevada Senator has bee

Soil InocuIation Investigations.

During the season of 1905, severa
hundred crops of legumes were inocu-
lated with cultures of nitrogen fxiDg
bacteria prepared in the Experiment
Station Bacteriological Laboratory
The summary of the reports from these
NEGOTIATIONS is as follows:
Crops benefited by the incubation.
76 per cent.
Crops not benefited by the inocula
tion. II per cent.
Crops on land which contained the
b bacteria. 13 per cent.
The number of crops benefited is not
quite so large as in the season of 1905.
which is probably due to the very wet
weather which was general over the
state. The average results for the two
seasons of 1905 and 1906, is as follows:
Crops benefited by the inoculation,
79 per cent.
Crops not benefited by the inocula-
ton, 81 per cent.
Crops on land which contained the
bacteria, Iii per cent.
We have received many enthusiastic
letters from farmers who have used
the. .inoculation with signal success
Also, We have received letters from
those who failed and were discouraged.
We believe. however, that artificial
inoculatlon is a success, provided fresh
cultures from reliable sources are OBJ
tanned, and the proper methods pursu-
ed in preparing same. We do not ad.
vocate the abandonment of the old
method of using inoculated soil, but
recommend it. Where this Is not con-
venlent, and there is any doubt as to
whether the proper bacteria for the
intended crop are in the land. we re-
commend the use of the artificial cul.
lures. We do not believe that farmers
should pay the retail prices charged by
commercial firms for this material. The
cost of preparing does not justify the
price of from one to two dollars per
acre. Farmers are advised TO be very
careful purchasing this material from
-promiscuous sources. 1t should be
fresh, and prepared by a competent
bacteriOlogist who is equipped for the
purpose. The Experim ent Station will
continue to supply the farmers in the
state with cultures at 25c per acre so
long as it does not interfere with the
research work outlined for the Depart
ment of Bacteriology.

Permanent Naval Display at the
Jamestown Exposition.
BY Geo. F. yiett

Norfolk. May 22.-While not on as
tremendous scale as in the openin G
weeks. the naval display at jamestown
will nevertheless be maintained in an
adequate manner throughout the en-
tire period of the exposition.
The U. 8. government has assigned
three ships to duty right off the great
pier during the seven months and
these will be constantly open to the in
spection of visitors Considering that
the most popular exhibit at the Fair
at Chicago was an imitation battlesblp
built on piles in the lake, the reality Of
the Jamestown squadron will be of
the greatest interest to strangers from
the interior. But this is by no means
the limit of naval representation; the
harbor of Hampton Roads. being a
naval rendezvous. is seldom without
several war vessels lying at anchor, ,and
the ships of the U. g.. navy are con-
stantly arriving and leaving this har-
Dor. The Navy Yard at Portsmouth.
and the great shipbuildiDg plant at
Newport News. are generally crowded
with war craft under construction ard
undergoing repairs, so that no visitor
need leave the section without having
bis curiosity fully satisfied concerning
naval matters.
Some of the foreign fleets will not
arrive until later in the summer, and
an effort will be made to have this |
extend further invita- |
tion to the different naval powers to
make Hampton Roads stopping |
place for their individual cruising yes
sells during the period of the exposl
tion. This is frequent occurrence in
ordinary times and with proper repre-
to the different governments
could be made feature.
This is to correct the impression
that the dispersal of the present fleet
signifies the ending of the naval dis
play. At no time during the entire
period of the Exposition will there be
less than twenty five war ships on the
nearby waters fer the instruction and
snt ertainment of visitors.
