To HIS CRITICS
JUSTICE OF SUPREME COURT
SAYS IMPERATIVE DUTY TO
TAKE PART IN POLITICS.

James G. Sweeney, associate JUS
tice of the supreme court, who has
been the subject of considerable
criticism at the hands of members of
the convention and the press anent
his active participation in the pro-
ceedings at the recent Democratic
buzz fest has the following to say in
support of his contention that it is
the duty of every citizen irrespective
of what Office he hold to participate
therein:
Everyone is entitled to his opin-
ion in this matter, but in so far as /
am personally concerned, / deem it
not only the privilege of supreme
judge, but an imperative duty, and
particularly when an issue or princi-
pie such as was at stake in the Tono-
pah convention is involved. l have
no apologies whatever to make for
my activity and intend to do my
duty to my state from civic stand
point, as / see and believe right.
do not believe that because happen
to be supreme judge, that am pre-.
cluded from expressing my opinions
on political issues, nor that because
occupying this position, cannot par
ticipate in standing for the principles

aside and allow others to make plat
forms declaring principles which

and civic duties and intend to per

ATWOOD TAKES ON
Renewed VIGOR
RICHARDSON MILL is RUNNING
NIGHT AND DAY GIVING
GOOD RETURNS.

A. v. Gillingham, who is just in
from Atwood, states that the district
has taken on new life and reports
quite a good deal of activity there.
The litigation over ore from the Pac-
tolus has been settled and the var
ious parties to the controversy have
now a nice little amount of money to
divide up between themselves.
The Smallwood mine on Paradise
mountain has been recently sold for
a goodly sum and the new owners
propose to inaugurate campaign of
development on good sized scale.
M. L. Butler has just returned
from the coast, bringing with him a
large party of capitalists. He has
struck good body of ore at the $50
foot level that goes $500 a ton. Mr..
Butler has a great deal of ore sacked
on his property and will shortly be-
gin hauling to the smelter.
The Richardson mill is running
night and day and the cleanup which
has just been made was forwarded to
the mint.
On the Griggs-Atwood lease they
are sacking ore which they will send
to the Richardson mill to be handled
as soon as they finish the run from
the Pawnee mine. James Miller, the
well known mill man, was unfortu-
nate to fracture his right shoulder
and it will be several weeks before
he can resume work at the mill.
Arthur Gardner has secured a
property in the Paradise mountains
that was worked some thirty-five
years ago. In those days ore was
packed to Austin on burros and ther
put on the train, and shipped to the
smelters. They have hole dowr
thirty feet and Mr.. Gardner will
commence the work of sinking deeper
at once. They have drifted at the
thirty-foot level twenty feet to the
south and twelve feet to the west. Ii
the twenty-foot drift he has encount
cred vein of ore which contains
lead, silver and silver chlorides.
w. Dee Jones, the pioneer mer
chant of Goldfield, in order to &C
commodate the travel has established
| a four-horse stage service from
Goldyke to Luning. This is mad
necessary to accommodate the trave
that is setting in that way.
The Gold Crown, the property o
Frank Everett, has put anothe
shift of men to work and are getting
ready to make big shipment
The Atwood Mines company will
shortly resume work on their Contac
mine and expect to continue right Of
indefinitely.

Some Tales and Their Uses.

A eat never actually wage its tail.
Why should it when it can purrf
But, nevertheless, it seems to serve
the same purpose in permitting .
temporary expenditure of excess ner-
vous energy when the animal is un-
der great strain. For instance, when
carefully stalking a bird or a man,
as in the ease of kitten or a lion,
the tip of the tail is never still for
a moment-ever curling and uncurl-
ing. We may compare this to the
nervous tapping of the foot or fing-
ers in man. When an angry lion
is roaring his loudest, his tail will
frequently lash from side to side, CIV
ing rise among the ancients to the
belief that he scourged his body with
a hook or thorn which grew from the
end of the tail.
When a jaguar walks along a
slender bougb, or house cat peram-
bulates the top of board fence, We
perceive another important function
Of the tail-that of an aid in balanc-
ing. AS a tigkt-rope performer
sways his pole, SO the feline shifts
its tail to preserve the center OF
gravity.
The tail of sheep seems to be OF
little use to its owner, although in
the breed which is found in Asia
Minor and on the tablelands of Tar
tary, this organ functions as store
house of fat, and sometimes reaches
a weight of fifty pounds. When
viewed from behind, the animal seems
all tail, and when this appendage
reaches it's full size it is either fast
ened between two sticks which drags
| on the ground, or it is suspended or
| two small wheels.-C. William Beebe
