Major M. j. Phillips

M. J. Phillips, of this city, for six
years past battalion adjutant, was high
ly gratiied on Wednesday to receive
notice from Brig. Gen. Bates of his
appointment as inspector of small arms
with the rank of major. Lient. Phillips
had been warmly endorsed for the
position by a number of the military
men with whom he has associated for
several years past and it is the general
opinion that better appointment
could not have been made.
Gen. Bates letter follows:

for this responsible work and assure
you that this administration will assist
you in every manner and Loyalty sup

Roy cheal Arrested on Serious
Chargs.

Fearing that his son was being taken
from the city by its mother, Roy Cheal
in the excitement and passion of the mo-
ment fired bullet at the hack. which
was being driven down Ball street, in
which were Mrs. Cheal, her son and
City Marshall Hodges, and his arrest
followed in few minutes on the charge
of attempting to do great bodily harm
less than murder. Divorce proceedings
have been pending on the application
of Mrs. Cheal, who claims that she was
driven to bring the same by Mr..
Cheaps frequent outbursts Of passion,
and their small son has been kept by
each of the parents part of the time
since. The boy having been at the
home of Mr.. CheaPs parents for ten
days, Mrs. Cheal drove there Monday
morning accompanied by Marshall
Hodges and secured the boy. AS the
hack drove along Exchange street, Roy
came from his brokerage Office and
called to the driver to stop. This not
being done he followed the hack to
Ball street and soon after it turned
south on Ball he fired his revolver, the
bullet going through the glass door and
slightly wounded Marshall Hodges on
the forehead. The hack was driven
swiftly away before second shot was
fired and Roy rutcrned to his office, the
hack finally bringing up at the National
hotel where Mrs Cheal and her mother
have been staying. Deputy Sheriff
Brown soon afterward took Cheal into
custody and he gave bail to appear for
examination before Justice McCaughna.
Mrs. .Cheal states that she had no idea
of leaving the city pending the decision
in the divorce suit and that she only
wished to keep the boy for few days
until the court had decided who should
have him permanently. Mr.. Cheal has
since instituted >habeas corpus pro-
ceedings to recover possession of the
boy.
The entire affair is greatly regretted
and much sympathy is expressed for
Mr.. and Mrs. Robt. Cheal, Roy's
parents.

THE NEW BRYAN
WORSE THAN THE OLD.

The New York Tribune prints a
temperate but just review of the VIM
J. Bryan of today as contracted with
the VIM. j. Bryan of 1896 and 1900,
and find that on the whole the
new" Bryan is less admirable in
every way than the old Bryan.
In beginning the Tribune states
that IT. has been severely criticised by
certain Bryan newspapers, notably
the Indianapolis News, for not APP
preciating that Mr. Bryan is a
different man this year from what he
was during his other two campaigns.
Apparently these ford supporters of
Mr.. Bryan. most of whom opposed
him during one or both of his pre-
vious campaigns, believe that Mr.
Bryan is so changed that it requires
the rankest partisanship not to per-

tom. That is as far as 1t goes. With
reference to the court house, II is
matter of absolute knowledge with
the writer that the Ely Townsite Co.
was glad to see the beginning of
work on the structure, and that it
wishes to see Ely build, grow and
prosper in the fullest possible meas

company is rot dished up for the

The White Pine news. [volume] (Ely, Nev.) 1906-1910, 1908-10-30

The organ has yawped a good deal
lately about alleged interference by
the Ely Townsite Co with construc-
ton of the court house in Ely. This
yawp is cut from the same piece OF
cloth as its Grain story, branded
false by the Ely Typographical union,
and is OF the same piece as its cor
poration influence stories, branded
false by the laboring men at Smelter
in mass meeting. The Ely Townsite
Co. is in no manner in the campaign.

right to do as American citizens and

RAILROAD RATES AND REVENUE

The varied and various arguments
in behalf of an increase in railroad
rates in the face of declining traffic
are fearfully and wonderfully made.
Before the Interstate Commerce
F Commission in Atlanta last week
Mr.. Horace F. Smith, one of the
ablest traffic managers in the south
described the condition of the rail-
roads and the necessity for getting
more revenue. Discussing the re-
duction made in 1905. which amount
ed to present advances on several
commodities, he said that the same
were made under coercion by the
railroad commissions and trade bodies
of different states and cities.
Under coercion the railroads
equalized rates which slight re-
auctions, but with reductions suf-
ficient to stimulate traffic in all di-
rections.
The years following these reduc-
tions have been phenomenal, break
ing all railroad records, and recon-
Cling the railroads as TO the
coercion. The past year has not
+ equaled in business done the two
preceding years, but the three years
of slightly reduced rates exceed by
millions the record of any preceding
period of three years.
With these results following a re-
duction, one would suppose that
traffic managers would concede the
truth of the economic law that low
er prices promote exchange.
They deny it. and argue that as
lower rates increased traffic, and
brought the roads more business
than they could handle, now that
traffic has fallen off and the country
is passing through a period of de-
{ preston, the remedy. that is the sure
way to secure an increase in revenue
Is to restore rates to the former al
titude at which such rates acted as
. restraint on business

MAKING IT CLEAR.
(IIarper's Weekly.)

A college professor in company
with his son. was enjoying a walk
in the country, when he met an old
farmer. 1t had been very wet
season, and the professor. thinking
to start the conversation in way
that would prove interesting to the
farmer, remarked:
There has been "A rather abnor-
NAL precipitation of late"
The farmer seemed somewhat
embarrassed and the professors son,
who used different vernacular,
though he was student In the
college to which his father was at
tached, attempted to straighten out
the matter. Drawing the farmer 10
one side he said in a superior way

ceive it. The indianapolis News
states in this connection that the
east has failed to understand this
wonderful improvement in Mr.. Bryan
as statesman, and thus shows igno-
rance as well as craftsmanship. The
Tribune replies that it has recognize
ed the fact that there is new
Bryan this year, but it maintains that
instead of an improved Bryan the
Democratic candidate is less attrae-
tive than he was formerly. In this
connection the Tribune says:
Yet as the campaign goes on il
becomes more and more apparent
that the east was right in its judg-
ment of Mr.. Bryan, and that the west
in so far as the west is represent
ed by our indianapolis contemporary
was grossly mistaken as to his
reformation and regeneration Mr..
Bryan in this campaign has failed

of his followers. He has shown a
stiffness and an insineerity in hand
ling political issues of which he was
not guilty in 1896 or 1900, and he
has made the promotion of his own
fortunes the sole test of the desira2
bility of every shift which he has I'M
dertaken. He has been for many
things and then dropped them against
many things and then embraced
them But he has been consistently
for himself under all circumstances
In so far as this is new the new
Bryan is less acceptable and admir-
able than the old Bryan. The public
cannot be long deceived and il is
clearly making up its mind, west as
well as east, that the Bryan of | 90S
no more deserves support as a dis
statesman" than did the
Bryan of 1896 and 1900 as a reck-
less and sensational agitator.
In 1900 Mr.. Bryan seemed to stand
as firmly for principle as he did in
1896. He rejected with scorn the
pleadings of David b. Hill to leave (
free silver out of the national Demo-
cratic platform, He made his race |
in the same way as in 1896 and. al t
though defeated, he retained the res
pect of the country.
In 1904 Mr.. Bryan. although not
the nominee for president, fought I
hard for the retention of all his radi
,al ideas and boldly denounced those
leaders who he thought
we're unfit for leadership.
There is "A new Bryan this year,
,ut this new" Bryan is doing things
which the Bryan of 1896 or 1900 de-
Jared he would never do. He has
ignored free silver completely; he is
