1t would seem to a stranger that
the offer of compromise which Dubois
made to Nugent was generous. The
anti-Dubois crowd have been holler-
ing their heads off to get to vote for
Bryan. If they accept the PROPOSE
ton, they can name the electors, who
If elected would vote for Bryan. What
more do they want for a nickel?

The Frank Martin democrats had
better accept the Dubois offer, which
permits them to name the state elect
ors. That's at least something. If
they refuse, Fred will furnish the
whole show, and then Martin, Pence
and Purkey will have to vote for
Fred's electors, whether they like
them or not. 1t will never do for
them to go back on Bryan.

MANHATTAN
BUSY ONE
Says Arthur Raycraft
and Development May
Be Looked for

TONOPAH, August 26.-Arthur G.
Raycraft the former cashier OF the
Nye and Ormsby County Bank and a
conservative mining man. quietly
dropped into Tonopah yesterday. He
is at present directing and managing
the affairs of the Dexter mines at
Manhattan and says they are not
booming things out there hut that
they are doing some real mining.
Four mills are in operation in the
camp and the town is a long way
from being asleep. He says that
within a few weeks Manhattan will
have something to show that will be
solid and substantial and be of deep
interest to anyone engaged in min
ing.
1t is understood locally that Mr..
Raycraft is more than making good
in the development of the Dexter
properties. He has quit the banking
business to give those interests his
full time. He was one of the first
to declare faith in Manhattan and
present results fully justify it.

MORE CHARGES INNTHE
STATE BANK AFFAIR
Reno Capitalists Claimed to Be
After the Assets of the Defunct
Institution In This CITY

asking now why the receiver does
out their accounts and make them
put back the money they received
after the doors of the bank were
closed.
The reduction of the assets of the
bank nearly 100000 by the receiver
is also a matter that is being criti-
cised. Statements issued after the
bank closed howed the assets to be
about $1,600,t.0 and lne cashier
went on the stand in court and
swore that this figure was approx
mately correct.
7. B. Hickey has continued to as
sert that if the bank were handled
properly not stockholder nor de-
positor would lose dollar, but
statements have been made since Dy
those engaged in winding up the af-
fairs Oh the institution to the effect
that the bank would be able to pay
Off about forty cents on the dollar.
The Farmers and Merchants crowd
has established a small bank in Car
son City in a rented house and it is
stated that when the proper moment
arrives bid will be made for the
entire assets estimated by the re-
ceiver by the Farmers and Mer-
chants people.
If this were true it is easy to see
say the depoSitors who are looking
into the matter, where profit OF
about 100000 will be made by any
person who buys up the assets OF
the state bank on the estimate Of
the receiver, provided the state
ments of the cashier and Hickey are
true.
Everyone of the directors of the
bank have maintained that the as
sets of the bank were sufficient to
pay off all obligations and when the
receiver stated that the assets were
less by about 100000 and that much
of the collateral is worthless, there
was a feeling of mingled surprise
and chagrin among the stockholders
and depositors.
1t is stated that othed anu outside
influence is being brought into the
settlement of the banks affairs and
that a big sensation is about to be
sprung. Enough statements have
been made about the whole matter
to fill a book and the chaotic conii-
ton of affairs has not improved a
moment since the bank was closed"
