DAMAGE SUIT
RESULTS FROM
ELECTRIC SHOCK

A case has been filed in the dis
trict court at Goldfield by w. R.
Cutler, who is suing the Pittsburg-
Silver Peak Mining company for
$4,000 damages. Cutler was en-
ployed at the mine as carpenter and
while removing some sheet iron from
building received an electric shock,
one of the electric wires having come
in contact with the building. AS a
result he had to have one of his
fingers on his left hand amputated
and also partly lost the use of his
left hand. He will be represented
in the court by Berry and Cole of

His Buggy.

Admission, November 4.-(Special.)-
Turning double somersault in the fall,

very peculiar and serious accident about
o'clock this morning in which he suf-
fered a very badly spralned hip and a
number of other painful bruises His es-
cape from instant death seems mir
Rcle.
Mr. Shelnutt was seated in his buggy
and driving rapidly toward his home from
town along Wilmer avenue Without his
knowledge the coupling pole of the buggy
had become detached from the front part
of the buggy and was hanging down and
dragging on the ground. When he ap-
preached the bridge across Wilmer ave-
nue. in front of the Auditorium, at Four
teenth street, the dragging pole came in
contact with the timbers of the bridge and
completely upset the buggy IN a forward
direction, precipitating Mr.. Shelnutt in
two somersauts to the street in front of
the vehicle.
Mr.. Shelnutt was rendered unconscious
by his violent fall and was badly in
jured in one of his hips and otherwise
bruised and battered. The horse ran on
up to Mr. Shelnutt's residence nearby

Friends rushed to Mr.. Shelnutt's help
and picked him up. They readily saw
he was much injured by the accident and
soon called DR.. Billiard. Mr.. Shelnutt
was placed on a cot and carried to his
home where a thorough examination was
made of his injuries. 1t was at first
hought that his hip was broken but in
he opinion of the doctor his injuries con-

We have just had a national election
in which the old line up was made
again. The solid south on one side and
the solid north on the other. Some
as years ago it was said that the light
was about the negro. This was never
true. The Mason and Dlxons line was
one of human rights, and that right
was for state sovereignty and limita-
ton in the power to tax. That is each
state within certain limitations should
have the right to govern it's own af-
fairs, and the right of any individual,
any corporation, any power or trust
should be limited by law, and the rights
of the individual should be guaranteed
by law enacted or Judgment of court.
The southern states have the princi-
pies of Jefferson, they have the prin-

We are drifting steadily toward CEN

ASKS COLLINS PARDON.
Margaret Hill McCarter Appeals to
Governor HOch.

Mrs. Margaret Hill McCarter called
upon Governor. Hoch Thursday after
noon and made a plea for a pardon for
John Collins. 1t is understood that
she had no new evidence to present,
but simply wanted to keep up the fight
for the young mans pardon. Grace
Collins and Mrs. McCarter are two of
the most determined advocates of a
pardon.
Governor Hoch stated this morning
that there were no Developments in
the Collins case; that there was no
particular renewal of exertfons on the
part of Collins friends. and no new
DEVELOPMENTS or evidence in the, case.
The story of the Emporia negro who
confessed short time ago seems to
have fallen as fiat as the numerous
other persons who have at various
times 'confessed'' to positive knowl-
edge that John Collins had no part in
the murder.

a tax for the purpose of purchasing
additional lands If found necessary,
and to erect permanent buildings and
improvements on such fair grounds.
I'VE see no reason why a general law
upon this subject could not be enacted
and made to apply with uniform
operation throughout the state wher-
ever similar conditions are likely to
arise, and to frame such law as
stated by the supreme court in the
more than ordinary skill in the science
of legislation. And if a general law
can be made applicable to all counties
in the state similarly situated, that is,
auth oriZing the board of county COM
missioners Of the several counties to
sell any fair grounds belonging to such
county, and purchase other land with
the proceeds of such sale, or to pur-
chase other land and to enlarge the
fair grounds owned by such county,
and to levy a tax for the purpose of
purchasing additional land, and to
erect permanent buildings and I'M
provements thereon, then the act in
question questionably Is repugnant
to the constitutional provisions above
quoted.
'T am of the opinion that general
law can be made applicable and have
uniform operation throughout the
state wherever similar conditions are
likely to arise. 1t is therefore, my
section II of articles 2 of the consti-
