BURIAL OF MRS. REYNOLDS
SorrowfuI Scene at the Episcopal
Church this Afternoon

A sOrrowful company OF friends
gathered at the Episcopal church this
afternoon to pay last tribute to the
memory of Mrs. Reynolds, whose re-
mains were brought here yesterday
from Seattle.
1t was her last wish that she should
be buried amid the scenes of her life
in Carson where she had lived many
years.
She was known here years ago for
her many acts of charity and these
deeds performed so many years ago
We're still cherished by the recipients
of her kindness and they were gath
cred at the church today to show thei:
appreciation. She had nursed the
sick and allivated suffering and dis
tress and these are deeds which are
not forgotten in Carson and Rev
Powell dwelt feelingly upon these
traits in his remarks today
Her coffin was heaped with flowers
and many a streaming eye told O
deeper feeling.
The pail bearers were Sam Nc
,Elaskey, Robert Mathewson, II. p
Clifford, Sam Noyes, Gilbert Briggs
JOHN Cation, K. H. SaXtOn and W. r
Davis.

w. H. i.angdon, the GOldfeld high
grader wants a writ of habiaS corpus.
LangdOn was sentenced to serve
800 days in the state prison for high
grading and when his lawyers appeal
ed to the supreme court for writ,
the action was made returnable be
fore the supreme court in Reno in or
der that a precedent should not be
established.
Langdon is fighting imprisonment
on constitutional grounds. The ore,
alleged to have been stolen, was taken
from Goldfield by LangdOn and an
associate. 1t was intercepted at Fal
Ion. There Judge Pike Of Reno heard
the evidence and sentenced the ac-
cused to pay fine of 81 900 or spend
. 500 days in Jail.
InaSumch as the crime was com
mitted in Esmeralda county and the
conviction was procured in Churchill
the defendant claims unconstitutional

prisonment is illegal. They ask the

IS RATHER DISCOURAG|NG
Shabby reatment of Man Who
Brings Capital to Carson

If Carson ever expects TO get into
to gyc into the habit of extending a
warmer welcome TO star strangers.
When Paul G. Lewis came here
some months ago he brought in cap
ital and brains and proceeded TO ell
gag in the real estate business.
His first move was to attach an
addition to the city and induce peo-
pie who made their money in. the min
ing camps of Southern Nevada to
build homes here in Carson.
When he went about the city to Sc
cure land for this purpose be first
attempted to secure sufficient land
west of Carson. At once the prices
scared into the air as it always does
when an outsider comes to Carson to
buy real estate. Senator NewlandS
tried this here years ago and they
piled the price on SO high that he quit
in disgust and went to Reno where
they sold him property cheaper than
he could get it in Carson. Then after
they got him located and interested
in Reno he was led to make other and
heavier investments. No one in Car
son ever thinks of this plan. They
don't look far enough ahead
Well Mir Lewis was obliged to go
to the eastern part Of the city. He
bought the race track and the ROOdy
3 ranch and is proceeding to cut it up
into town lots and you cant buy a lot
there OF him unless you agree to put
up a house there to cost nOtles than
$4,000.
Now this is case where an out
slider comes in, invests his money on
behalf of the town and number of
> people in the city have already begun
to fight him.
Our Ormsby County delegation in
the Legislature published a card in
= the newspapers which was anything
but courteous to Mr.. Lewis because
he had offered site free of charge
e for the Governors mansion. At the
;: rate his lots are selling this ground
n is worth $4,000.
IS He offered this as a gift and yol
d should never look a gift horse in The
er mouth.
IS Last evening Mr.. Fellows took oC
e casion to get up in a public meetin!
,e and cast an uncalled for reflection ol
a this offer.
,e Now is this the way to treat strang
s. ers coming into - u. with capital
i'd No one with a gram Oi sense NH al

w corner and TRANSFORMED, An Did Iuiit
ing unoccupied for Yeas i.ito IN III

The Appeal is advocating no part;
ne ular site for a Governors mansiO
M and don't propose to, but we hope
IN future that no one will object to
man who offers a free gift of land ft
Hn a site for anything.
ial The Appeal heard of no one in tt
lly legislature outside of Ormsby's del
cation who objected to Mr.. Levi
eX- offer.
lis The Appeal believes this site too f
Ir. east to be available, but the offer w
made in good faith and we believe
an helped to pass the bill.

THETARIFFAND NEW ENGLAND


The New England States. which
for years have been pre-emlnent as a
manufacturing center OF the coun-
try. NAV Justly be regarded as the
very cradle of the Republican idea OF
high tariff. The tariff, it seemed,
could never he too high to suit their
ideas and their needs. One OF their
statesmen, Mr.. Dingley, OF Maine,
stood sponsor for the present in
iduitous tariff law under which the
American people are suffering, the
law which, more than anything else
Il responsible for the spoliation OF
the many for the benefit OF the few
and which has helped more than any
thing else to build up the colossal
fortunes oiour industrial magnates.
The tide, however, for some time has
been turning. The shoe is beginning
to pinch where it ought to pinch
and every now and then there comes
a wall from some section OF the Ne"
England States calling for tarlii re-
vision. In recent years Il great num-
Der OF the cotton factories OF New
England have moved down South
where cheaper labor could be had
and in order to get closer to the cot
ton fields and save freight. New
England is, therefore, losing inter
est in the protection OF the output OF
cotton factories, in proportion as
these are being transferred TO the
South.
Only a day or two ago a Massachu-
sets paper describes that State as a
tariff victim. and says that mot one
man in ten in Massachusetts is bene-
fitted by protection" 1t then adds;
The inexpediency OF the high
tariff as a means of collecting
revenue is illustrated in the fact that
for every dollar it puts in the Wash
ington treasury il puts five into the
pockets OF the tarifflords. While the
protective tariff brings from duties
upon foreign imports upwards OF
5000, 100000 annually into the
treasury, it at the same time permits
the producers of tariff protected ar
ticles to sell their goods to the Amer
lean people for at least billion dol,
lars annually more than they would
receive were it not for the tariff. y
law whose chief effect is TO bring a
billion dollars OF money into the
pockets OF private individuals does
not inspire patriotism in the people.
There ought to be hope OF relief
ahead when New England kicks so
vigorously against the tariff.
