OUR STYLE OF AMBASSADORS
We Must Pay the Men I'VE Want. Says
Cousins, Better Salaries, for
They Need the Money.

Washington, Jan. 23.-While the
house was considering the diplomatic
bill Cousins said that the foreign af-
fairs committee Believes that all for
eign positions of the United States
should not be commanded by million
aires. Therefore. it must be made pos
sible for representative citizens OF the
middle classes to represent US.
"That class of men as rule" re-
marked Cousins, "have very moderate
incomes. 1t Is an ascertained fact that
any one dependent on the salary pro-
vided for a minister of the $500
class must either draw upon q person
al income OF become a recluse and a
misery incumbent In the important po-
sition which he nominally fills. We
can afford to furnish millionaires but
we cannot with respect TO ourselves af-
ford to furnish competent American
citizens to any foreign post without
furnishing the means for their neces-
sary expenses ard their decent living
and a fair compensation for their time
and services"

NOT EXACTLY AGREED
President and Live Stock Men Do
Not Harmonize as TO
Ranges.
HE WANTS NATIONAL CONTROL
Live Stock Men Shy at That Idea-At-
tack on the Tariff and the
Railways.

Denver. Jan. 23.-The national live
stock convention is in session here and
the speakers all know what they want
and don't mind saying so. The tar
if question was discussed by Attorney
S. H. Cowan, of Texas. who said that
powerful trusts, which want high pro
tective tariffs to keep out European
competition were running the live stock
industry. Germany and other foreign
nations were boycotting United States
meats because of the high tariffs OF
this country. E. FL. Hartman, the rail-
road magnate. was criticised by Cow
an, who said the government was too
late in taking action against the IN
ion Pacific and allied lines. which he
said were in a combination to restrain
trade.

Artful Dodsers.

Insanity experts have no occasion to
point the finger of scorn at the lawyers
who take one side Of a case or the
other for pay and make no pretensions
of believing any other way than the
way they are being paid all the money
a man has to believe.
The experts, on the other hand, are
supposed to be impartial scientists who
are ready to go on the witness stand
and tell the truth regardless Of whom it
hits. 1t is needless to say that they
don't do anything of the sert, and the
way In which they make science the
handmaiden of the almighty dollar Is
really something Of a public scandal.
1t makes no difference on which side
he is hired he makes the same line Of
big words prove either that the man
is sane or insane, according to the way
it shall swell his bank account, to say
nothing OF dimming his reputation.

NOT WHAT THEY WANTED
Didn't Find 1t Out, However, Until 1t
Could Not Be Got.

Could Not Be Got.
Denver, Jan. 23.-Interstate Com
merce Commissioner PrOuty told attor-
neys for George J. Kindel, the local
manufacturer who complains against
a number of railroads, that so far they
had failed TO show conclusively that
freight rates to Denver were unrea-
sonable. Fearing that the case was
getting away from Kindel and his at
torneys A. J. Spengel, president of the
Chamber Of Commerce, through his at
torney asked leave of Commissioner
Prouty to intervene
This move at first puzzled Kindel
and his lawyers, because the Chamber
Of Commerce had contributed money
to help along Kindel's action, but
President Spengel later explained that
too much weight had been given to the
question of rate per ton per mile since
the hearing began, and that was not
what was wanted by Denver mer-
chants; instead they wanted Denver to
be given the same rights, terminal and
other, as Missouri river points. The
defense began Offering testimony late
in the day and representative of the
Union Pacific railway explained the
system of rate making.

AT T0WLE'S OPERA HOUSE.

1t is the same old story, but one
which is ever dear to the hearts of mill
ions of people In these United States,
the evergreen drama, East Lynne" 1t
has many times been asked from what
source this beautiful DRAM gets its
longevity. The answer is that 1t is
human, and teaches a strong moral,
and as long as there are good men and
good women, just so long Will East
Lynne" be popular. This attraction
comes TO the Towle opera house Thurs

A Protest.

Don't come to me with social fads
And manners light and breezy.
90 not care for lure or snare,
And I'm not very easy,
But to my favor there's q way,
And this Is how you find it
Give mo hand with firm clasp, and
I'll like the man behind It.
Some people like the queer salute
And seem impelled to share it.
A freaky shake gives me a quake;
l simply cannot bear 1t.
From recognition I cut out
That thing where'er / find II.
Give me hand with firm clasp, and
I'll like the man behind It.
Four fingers limp and slightly crooked
And thrust Into your digits
Are quite enough to call your bluff
And start fit of hdgets,
And II your heel were on his neck
Most gladly would you grind it.
Give me hand with firm clasp, and
I'll like the man behind It.
A wiggly waggly hand outthrust
In so called friendly greeting
Is cordial nit and isn't fit
For two dog catchers meeting.
So I repeat with emphasis,
And with my fist bind 1t,
Give me a hand with firm clasp, ana
I'll like the man behind 1t.

Opening Up of the Railways.

ST. Paul, Jan. 23.-Traffic on the
main lines through the snow-bound

delayed by the drifts, which pile up as
fast as they can be cleared, all of the
three big roads have been able to get a
few trains through. This applies only
to the main lines.

RAILROADS TO BULLFROG
ARE PUSHING WORK

Both the railroads projected from
Goldfield to Bullfrog. are putting forth
strenuous efforts to close up the gap
within the shortest time possible. Many
passengers are already coming into
Goldfleld from the south. the Brock road
being completed to within 10 miles of
Rhyolite. Passengers come into Rnyo-
lite from Las Vegas over the Clark
road. thence take stage or auto to con-
meet with the Brock road running on to
Goldfield.
Neil Mclean, representative Of the
Brock contractors on the Goldfeld-Bull-
frog railroad, states that the grading
into Rhyolite will be completed by
April 10th. Track laying is completed
to within four miles of Beatty.
TT is only matter of a few days
until the tracks will be laid into Rhyo-
lite, if the shortage in ties can be made
good" said Mr.. Mclean. This is the
only contingency that can delay the
work. think, however. at the further
est. that the entire work will be COM
pleted by the last of April.

TWO STOCK DEALS OF TREMENDOUS PROPORTIONS
PAN YAM HAS
VALUES THAT
LOOK GOOD

From recent Developments. IL looks
as II the people who have pinned their
faith to the eastern part of the Gold
field district. will have abundant reason
for the faith within them. No section
has had more constant believers, and no
outside section has been worked with
more confidence and persistence.
At various times. news of strikes of
greater or less importance have come
to town, especially in that particular
section of which the Rochester is the
pivot. Nearly all the properties in that
neighborhood are closed now. in harmony
with the general plan of the mine own
ers. but there is at least one property
still at work-the work being prosecuted
by some of the owners, who are prac-
teal miners, and this property Is the
Pan-Yan. adjoining the Rochester on
the east. Word comes from that prop
erty, there is a 20-inch streak of ore
that runs 800 to the ton. This is a
very important development. as the Pan
Yam had s67 ore at the 120-foot point.
thus indicating the improvement of the
ground as depth is gained
When work is resumed by the mines
the eastern district will present a very
active scene. as there are already a
number of hoists in that section, and a
dozen or more properties preparing TO
go to work. and the district is expected
to give a good account of itself this
summer.

location was secured, and although the
exact location will not be given out at
this time, for obvious reasons, it can
Re said that the depot will be right in
the city, not more than two blocks away
from Hall street. The Clark people
made a special point of getting an inside
location for the depot. and in this they
have succeeded. The depot for the
Brock road Is now being built on
Broadway. and 1t will not be long before
the people will be saved the inconven-
ience of going a mile and half to and
from the railroad.
The Clarks are pushing railroad con-
struction with all speed. and the dirt is
flying only a few miles south of Gold
