SHERIFF MAKES
COSTLY BLUNDER

A deplorable incident happened
here Tuesday afternoon, when Deputy
Sheriff Forquer took possession of
the Eagle Rock Mercantile and Min
ing company's establishment, in the
name of the law, and closed its doors
for a few hours. After telephone
conversation with Sheriff Robert
Shirley at Fallon, the matter was set
to right that evening, and business
resumed by the mercantile establish
ment, but not until ugly rumors had
gone forth on the four wings of the
wind, much to the damage of inno-
cent parties.
The facts are that a bank of Ton
opah sued out a writ of attachment
against John Y. McKane; on the
theory that c. X. Jarvis was in pos
session of property belonging to Me-
Kane, g~arnishment proceedings were
had, and papers prepared to be serv-
ed on Jarvis as a garnishee. These
are the facts and how it was con-
strued by the officers that attach
ment was to be served on the eorpor-
alton in which Jarvis was formerly n
stakeholder has not yet been ex-
planned. Deputy Sheriff Forquer re-
ceived instructions to take possession
of the Eagle Rock establishment, and
he did so. AS Shirley promptly re-
leased the attachment by phone, as
soon as his attention was called to the
fact that neither Jarvis nor the Eagle
Rock were in any manner parties 20
the suit, it is evident that his action
in closing the establishment was
wholly unwarranted.
The laws of the state of Nevada
are very lax on attachment proceed
ings at best, but in this case it seems
that the most gross earelessness by
an official has wrought a great
wrong. The sheriff is, of course,
liable on bond, but in a great mea-
sure an irreparable injustice has oc-
casioned damage that can scarcely be
estimated. -Fairview News.

HIGH OPINION OF
SOUTHERN NEVADA
O. ID. VAN BUSKIRK ON TOUR or
THE STATE VISITS
TONOPAH.

o. ID. Van Buskirk, who with his
father has been in the real estate
business in Oakland many years, ar
rived in the city yesterday morning
and left in the afternoon for Gold
field, from where he goes on in the
morning to Rhyolite, where he has
some mining interests.
Mr.. Van Buskirk has been trying
to get into this part of the country
for a long time, for he realizes the
opportunities for young and hustling
men. He spent the day in Tonopah,
and that was enough to satisfy of the
solidity and permanency of the camp.
Il was in Cripple Creek" said he,
II vas there in the palmy days of
the camp, and she was many years
older than this camp, before there
were as many fine buildings and
handsome and solid homes. / regret
that cannot put more time in Tono-
pan " ~ huo AlduC a SICdI llll-
preston on me, but 1 have to hurry
or to Rhyolite, where business calls
me. | am coming back, however, and
then | am going to take in the camp
in a thorough manner.
Il expect to settle in Nevada, and
that has been my desire for a long
time. / have some money of my own
and of others to invest, and | have
no doubt as to the future of the
country. Business in Oakland and
San Francisco is picking up, and
money is decidedly easier. The banks
are beginning to loosen, and we have
secured any number of loans DURING
the past four or six weeks. To be
sure the banks are still careful, but
there was a time, and that not very
long ago, that they would not loar
money on any kind of security.
"Of course we still have labor
troubles in San Francisco, but they
are being overcome. They cannot las
forever, and the men themselves are
getting down to a better understand
ing of matters. The car strike IL
settled, has been settled, in fact fol
several weeks, but the men will be
gin to go back in a few days, not al
a union, but as individuals. They
look to have the whole matter clear
ed up by Labor day. This will max,
q great difference to San Francisco
in fact to the whole country, for Sa,
Francisco is the metropolis of the en-
tire Pacific coast, and it is the clear
ing house of this country

erplate. 1t is also noticeable that
Terry has improved vastly in the last
year. In his recent fights he has
displayed excellent generalship and
as far as headwork is concerned is
undoubtedly one of the c%leverest men
in the ring today.
IF this scrap isn't a good one, l
miss my guess"
Jacks criticism of the two fighters
is doing much to even up the odds
as his fight dope generally stands
the test. He has had wide experience
with the men in the clouts, having
refereed the Mike Twin Sullivan
Dougherty fight, the go between Kid
Oglesby and Kid Scaler and a num-
Der of smaller mills. When Jack was
in Butte the odds were never settled
in a fight until he had passed judy
ment.

ODDS SHIFTING
WITH CRITICISM
FIGHT FANS LOOK FOR AN EVEN
GO BETWEEN TERRY
AND PETER.

With the approach of the day of
the big fight, the odds are settling
into an almost even choice between
the two scrappers. Peter Is showing
daily at his training quarters that he
is a marvel at the punching game.
Mustain is showing remarkable inn
provement and there is a certainty
that the Tonopah lad will keep the
brown boy jumping several different
ways at once.
Happy Jack" Marlborough, pro-
fessional arbiter of scraps, who will
referee the fight. has been doing a
little prowling around on his own
account this week to get a line on
the two men. AS a result he Is charg-
ed with enthusiasm like a bottle -
fizz water.
She'll be a ripping good fight, and
no mistake" he said. II never sa "
two men better conditioned or bet
ter scienced for a scrap"
Jack watched Peter train in his
quarters at the Saratoga club Mon
day and last night took a run over
to Tonopah to have a look at Terry.
TITS anybody's fight" he said this
morning. "Of course, taking past
records into consideration, Peter has
a little edge on the other chap, but
watching them train, there is small
choice.
Peter Jackson is undoubtedly one
of the most perfect fighting machines
the world ever saw. In watching
him train you see an elasticity and
quickness in his movements display
ed by no other fighter. For fighting
form, poise, action and agility, he's
up in the very top pigeon hole.
HE goes into the rushes on the
close mitigating like a chunk Of
black dynamite and that tattoo punch
on the ribs hits with the rapidity Of
q machine gun.
"Mustain's chances lie largely in
his capacity for punishment, his
clever footwork and his murderous
shoulder drive. When Terry gets
that bunch of shoulder and back
muscles in line with his fist, he can
drive a hole through a sheet of boil

Inspect The
MIDWAY Mine
REPRESENTATIVES, OF BONANZA
ACCOMPANIES SECRETARY
DOUGLASS ON TOUR.

w. ]. Douglass, secretary, and one
Of the biggest owners of the Midway,
went through the mine yesterday,
for the first time in a month, having
been away on a vacation. At his
invitation, a representative of the
Bonanza accompanied him. The in
~spection was confined to the 435-
level, and the intermediate between
that and the lower level.
If anyone is skeptical as to the
Midway being a big mine, a journey
through that level will convince him
that the Tonopah and the Montana
Tonopah are only two of the mines
of a great district. To the north for
four or FIVE hundred feet, where the
ledge is from four to ten feet wide,
the ceiling glistens like a bed of dia-
monds with shipping ore. On the
intermediary, they are drifting on
the ledge, and have already gone
several hundred feet, and here is
some of the finest ore ever seen in
the camp, and nothing is being said
about it either.
There are punches of stephanito,
the pure quill, in the walls and the
roof, and running through this are
masses of ruby silver. If that ore
were shipped without being mixed,
there would be shipments that would
go into the thousands of dollars per
ton.
1--WE are doing much work in the
way of taking out ore" said Mr..
Douglass, "and We are sorting what
we do ship down to a fair average.
The principal work that is being
done is prospecting in the S0O-level,
and we have a very good showing.
We are in good quartz, and have
found stringers of low grade ore.
This is most interesting work, for
the reason that if we find a good
body of ore under the dacite forma-
tlOn, IL VIII make a new camp OF
Tonopah. All the mines are explor-
ing the lower depths in this same
quest.
I'VE have large blocks of milling
ore in the mine, and we are watch
ing the progress of the Montana Ton
opah mill to determine what we shall
do to handle this low grade"
Mr.. Douglass was asked if there
were any foundation for a rumor
that had been started with regard to
a consolidation Of the Montana Tono.
pah and the Midway. and he said
that the matter had never been dis
cussed by the directors of the Mid.
way, and that there was no thought
of consolidation on their part.

RAYCRAFT TENDERS
HIS RESIGNATION
CASHIER OF NYE AND ORMSBN
WILL STEP OUT OF
BANK.

Arthur G. Raycraft, so long cash
Ter of the Nye and Ormsby County
Bank, has resigned his position, and
will step out on the first of the
month. He has sold, or is going to
sell, his handsome stone house on
the hill, and shake from his shoes
the dust of Tonopah.
Just what Mr.. Raycraft intends
doing for the future, he does not say,
for the reason, possibly, that he has
not yet perfected his plans, but there
is some talk of his taking up his
permanent dwelling place at Gold
field. At any rate he has consider
able interests there and will go
there for a time, If he does not make
the camp his abiding place.
He is largely interested in differ
ent camps in the State, and Manhat-
tan, in particular. He is a large
holder in the Manhattan Dexter and
other properties, but these represent
only a small share of his holdings.
He is at present absent in Reno on
business In connection with the
bank.
George w. Cowing, assistant CASH
Ter at the Carson branch of the Nye
and Ormsby Bank, which has other
branches in Reno, Manhattan and
Wonder, and is putting up a bank
building now in Goldfield, will take
the place of Mr.. Raycraft, and is

KNOX COUNTY POLITICS.
Decent Democrats Heartily Sick Of Old
Court House Rinq.

Rockland Me-, October 80. The
political pots in Knox county are COM
mencing to simmer a little although
thew have not steamed up much as yet
But as the two Republican candidate
for Governor have now defined their
position their friends have begun to
talk and will line up for their favori &c
candidates soon. Congressman Little
field is non commital and is taking no
sides. but is ready for the fray when
the nomination is made, whoever the
candidate may be.
The Republicans are not yet saying
anything about candidates for their
county ticket. as it is a little early,
but will probably commence to put
their good men in line for the various
Offices after the first of the new year.
The county Democrats are all at sea as
to whom to put forward 70" their
favorite candidate for Governor. Many
favor Davis. though some worll prefer
new candidate. Wifen asked about
Senator Staples some CO his own party
faith say they think ne would make a
fairly strong candidate Whiic others
express their belief to the effect that ne
has lost much OF his former hold upon
his party and that they arr sick and
tired OF voting for him.
The rank and fic OF the Democratic
party for the most part think that the
present Office hold,rS should all retire
at the clos" Of T.. il. present term Of
Office ana thcreb! give others of TIE
hungry ana fai,hfu! recognition for
their loyalty and hard work in behalf
of the party in iii" pl,s. which has
served to make Knox cuultI Demo-
cratic in the iast. They say it is
undemocratir for i favored few to hold
the offices all the time. and that THIS
fact is making Republican votes every
day.
For Senator there is not much SAID
at present bat the Sheriff nomination
is discussed quite freely. 1t is reported
for re-election. When he was given
the nomination last year he caused it
to be understood that he would rot
ask for it again. For this office the
Democrats have quite number IF
aSnirantS to choose from in several
towns in the county. especially
Camden. Rockport. Warren. st. George
and Einalhaven. Tho general sent
mcnt among the members Of the party
seems to favor taking candidates from
The towns az Rockland has had lis
share ana fair play demands that some
of the Offices at least should go to the
strong Democratic towns that have
furnished the bulk Of the party votes,
in former elections.
There is an increasing sentiment
among the Democrats against the high
handed and arbitrary methods Of the
50 called Court House Ring and some
go 50 far as to say that its hoggiSh
actions in regard to the disposal of the
offices and patronage have become I'M
bcarable and that they will no longer
submit to it. Interesting developments
along this line may be looked for soon
There is Il growing feeling among
shreWG observers of the situation that
the next election will find Knox county
pretty solidly in the Republican
column.
