PLACING BLAME WHERE 1T BELONGS.

There has been considerable complaint regarding the railroad freight
traffic, its congestion, and the embargo placed upon all goods except
perishabe stuff, headed in this direction. In another column is pub
lhshed a n interview with President Brock of the Tonopah & Goldhed
road, which places the blame where it belongs.
In Tonopah the delivery of freight is fairly good, for the consignees
make it their business to get the freight out of the cas as expedidousy
as possible. This is not the case with the people of Goldheld, who are
very slow about removing their goods from the cars. In consequence,
there are than a hundred freight cars tied up O the tracks be-
tween here and Godheld, and the Southern Pacific has given notice that
no lore freight will be shipped in here until the carsa are empied.
It is the fashion to abuse corporations, and the blame for every.
thing that happens in their connection is laid upon them. The Tono-
pah & Goldfeld Railroad has received its quota of abuse in regard to
the freight tieup The people of Goldfeld have been hollering for lum-
ber, rel there are more than fifty carloads of lumber in the Goldfeld
yards. They have been complaining that they cannot get their
merchandise, yet there are more than a score Of carloads of general mer-
chandise in the yards, and it is the same way with other material
In Goldfeld there is a committee looking after such abuses, with
a view to correcting them. Here is a chance for that committee to
get busy. 1t is a very easy matter to ascertain where the blame lies
and ne that is discovered there should be no difficulty in removing
the ause If the obstruction. Let those cars be unloaded, 81 that the
rest of the people In Goldfeld and Tonopah may not be made to
suffer for the sins of others.
The sooner the cars re unloaded, the sooner will they be returned
to their owners, and the sooner will the embargo be raised from freight
for these points. This is a matter of most urgent Importance for it
concerns everybody. 1t is up to the people of Goldheld to get busy
and get those tracks cleared.

TONOPAH is GOING AFTER THE

GINNING.

The baseball craze has sure struck
the town and the fans are multi

enthusiasts last night in the rooms
of the Board of Trade, and it was
decided to have a grandstand and
enclosure built at the ball grounds,
w. B. Sollender having offered to
give a lease of the park. A com
mittee of three was appointed to raise
funds for the purpose, the commit
tee being composed of Richard Davis,
Letson Balliett and w. w. Booth.
Manager Booth voiced the senti-
ments of all present when he stated
that Tonopah was going after the
pennant h~ot-footed; and that it
would be a case of play ball from
the start. The local club has been
strengthened by the importation of
a battery from the metropolis of

WINGFIELD CALLS
RICE'S BLUFF

RENO, May 23.-"I1l bet you
$500 that Goldeld Consolidated goes
to s. in thirty days" said Graham
Rice this afternoon in the office of
the Reno Stock Brokerage Company,
to a casual watcher of the black
boards. Today's quotations show the
stock to be selling at IS and $6.12h
The man addressed sidestepped
gracefully, as he does not follow the
game quite as closely as does the
partner of Larry" Sullivan.
Just then a man stepped out OF
the shadow, where he had been
standing when the offer was made by
Rice. The newcomer wore an old
blue sweater, and his face was drawn
from the illness from which he has
not yet entirely recovered.
en- take that bet, for $500, So
900 or $4,000" he said in the same
quiet, eve ont that is habitual with
him.
Rice turned to see who addressed
him.
1t was George Wingfeld, ten times
a millionaire, the Prince Fortunatus
of Nevada's mining world.
This man is my representative,
Mr.. Rice. Deal with him." said the
person first addressed.
But the affair stopped there. No
bets were made. With a smile the
quiet-yoiced man walked out.
1t was not the first bluff he had
called.

 The only interest taken in the cleo tion was by those candidates who had opposition and whose friends got out and tried to get as many votes as pos sible.
