TIE SILVA CASE.

sam Davis, in the Carson Appeal,
says.
The revelation Of the Silva case
IN 8hiel Preston and Smith are OIL
erial Ior their lives at Hawthorne.
are Of a character to make men
stand aghast
Gradually the character OF the
men Who are engineering the labor
strike at Goldfeld stands revealed.
Instead of being labor sympa-
thi2ers ANA members of an order
having for its object the betterment
of conditions for the laboring man
they seem more properly TO belong
from their objects and sympathies,
to some Italian band of bandits, or
he ring leaders of a Malta society.
Their creed is murder and violence
and they do not pause at assassina-
ion when they can catch their vie
tim unawares and in the dark.
AS was suspected long ago by de-
seeming people, that they merely
came here blackmailers and dis
turbers. but not until recently has
their actual occupation as murderers
and conspirators been dragged to the
light.
There is no getting away from
the fact that Silva was shot down at
the door of his place of business, be-
cause he was attending to his own
business of running a restaurant
without permission of the |. W W.
outfit The killing was a cowardly,
deliberate assassination and the tes-
imony brought out at Hawthorne
duplicates leaders of the so-called
iabor order.
These men have been indicted
by q fearless grand Jury and it is TO
be hoped that every one of the men
who counseled and advised and as
sisted in goading those poor tools on
10 kill Silva will land along side the
principals
The atmosphere here in Nevada
needs clearing and the rounding up
md bringing to justice of the rascals
@ho were instrumental in the death
of Silva will clear the atmosphere III
the right way
These fellows disgrace any order
hey affiliate with and if the orders
which they claim to belong to don't
repudiate them at once and all their
acts the people of the state will rank
them in the same category. "

ERRORS ARE COSTLY.

The White Pine News last night
5eeived the following dispatch from
Eaw York:
IN error of a law clerk many
yaa.s ago may mean d fortune to
tasseil Sage Raphael and his moth
err and sisters. Many years ago, Ma
4an Raphael, a close friend of Rus
saa Sage, purchased s6SO,0O0 worth
oi second mortgage bonds of the Wa
.-ch & Jordan Valley Railroad COM
pany, which owned a line in Utah.
The interest on the bonds of the
road was defaulted and first mort
gage was loreciosed, cutting out the
holders Of the second mortgage Sc
curities. Nathan Russell spent &
large part Of his fortune trying to re-
cover from the railway, but was un-
successful. Worry caused his death
"A short time ago Russell Sage
Raphael son of Nathan Raphael,
began suit in the federal court on
the bonds and secured a Judgment
Tor $1,680,768, including interest.
This judgment has been returned by
The sheriff as unsatisfied and was
Today filed in court.
While working up this case Mr..
Naphaely lawyers discovered that
when the first mortgage was fore
closed the holders OF the second
mortgage, probably by a clerks errir,
"aro not made parties to the suit.
Taia it is claimed. inyalldates the
Iraclosure proceeding
The old railroad property, which
POW Belongs to the Denver & Rio

read amounted to $4,000. It Is

ELLIS DISCHARGED IN
STAKE REMOVING CAsE

y " Ellis, of the real estate firm
of Dickerson < Ellis. who was ar
rested d few days ago on complaint
of NJ Barieau, on charge Of re-
moving location posts ON mining
claim. was discharged By Justice
Cartwright yesterday and the cont
plant against him was dismissed.
The ground on which The location
posts were placed is patented ground,
the deed from The government hav-
ing been obtained under the land
patent law many years ago.
Barieau placed location stakes on
the ground, which is in the Ellis adj
dition' and the owners of the land
removed the stakes. The testimony
introduced in the preliminary hear
ing brought out the fact that Mr..
Ellis had very little to do with the
removal of the stakes.
In summing up the case at the
time the dismissal was announced,
Justice Cartwright scored the conf
planning witness strongly and in I'M
mistakable language.
The court in its decision said that
the ground was patented, as shown
by the records. The courts inter-
probation of the statute defining the
offense of removing location stakes
from mineral ground, said that this
statute does not apply To patented
ground, but to the open government
ground, which is open TO mmera1 en-
try.
IF patented ground is subject 10
location OF this character declared
the court with emphasis. the mere
feet that the government has given
a deed to the ground can have but
little weight ard the suspicion that
mineral value nay be found. would
invalidate the protection intended to
be afforded by the government in
granting patents. II this is found to
be the case, and if patented ground
can thus be located at any time, I'll
ties to land would be of very little
permanency or value.
The court said that there is pro-
oedure by which mining permits may
be obtained on patented ground, but
refrained from entering into q dis
eussion Of this phase of the law, .as
It did not enter into the case at the
5ar. No costs were taxed by the
court.
Other location stakes were placed
IN the same ground yesterday after
ne court had dismissed the com
LIANT against Mr.. Ellis, and it ie
tated that those who placed the
takes guarded them with weapons
n order to prevent any attempt to
emove them. Further development
re said to be pending, and may
fomo to a head today in more or less
erious trouble.

ed shortly after the blowing open of

mitted that crime, was discharged
from custody by Justice Cartwright
yesterday at the conclusion of his
preliminary examination
AT the time of his arrest Buchan-
an had in his possession a revolver

prove a valuable clue to trap the
criminal, and he was discharged

Der OF Montana men here, who do
not believe that he could have been
