IN THE DISTRICT COURT FOR THE DISTRICT OF ALASKA. DIVISION NO. 1,
The White Pine news. [volume] (Ely, Nev.) 1906-1910, 1908-10-10

Mr. Flanagan has been accused by
Sir Francis and the Democracy of
being the enemy of labor The man
ner in which the Republican candi-
date for the United States senate has
circulated among the laboring men
in the district during the last few
days affords the best proof of the
falsity of the charge. Mr.. Flanagan
has had no need TO pummel Sir Fran
els as he has in exposing the untruth
of the Democratic candidates deelar-
ations along this line.

A POSE FOR THE MINERS.

In Ely last night Senator Newlands
opened a new can, put up especially
for the mining country trade. In
doing so he leaped from the Demo-
cratic platform adopted at Tonopah
and went entirely back upon his own
attitude as announced in the Tonopah
convention and on the strength of
which announcement he secured the
endorsement Of his party for reelec-
tion to the senate.
In effect, the senator declared last
night that he opposed the sending of
u. S. troops to Goldfield last winter
although at the time he endeavored
to make it appear in Nevada that he
was heartily in favor of this action,
though detained by pressing business
self to the president in person, re-
linquishing his message to the care
of Senator Nixon and Representative
Bartlett for delivery.
Furthermore, the senator at Tono-
pah was understood to and did en-
dorse fully the attitude of Bartlett in
the Goldfield matter, both as TO the
Washington end, involving the send
ing in of troops, and also as to the
police bill. which he gave it to be
understood that he fully endorsed,
although, as he has been charged by
Mr. Flanagan several times during
the latter's stay in the district he
did not have the courage to extend
a single word OF commentator for
the late Governor Sparks. Sinking
from this duty with the nomination
under his arm.
In consequence OF the above facts,
the position taken by Senator New
lands last night represents the most
complete somersault that the astute
gentleman has ever worked off on
any considerable portion of the pop 4,
ulation OF Nevada. II is a shameless
retreat, cowardly dodge and intend

campaign he is waging.

A Marriage Ceremony Consisting of

Washing the Head.
Marriage among the Hopi. a tribe Of
the Pueblo Indians. is an institution re-
garding which those most concerned have
least to say When the parents Of a girl
find It expedient for her TO get married,
they look up an available man and nego-
tiate with his parents.
After the matter has been arranged. the
principals are notified. the girl goes to
the home OF the bridegroom's parents and
grinds corn for them for three weeks,
while the bridegroom makes a kind Of
sash for the bride Then one morning at
sunrise they both battle their heads in
bold water, which completes the cere-
mony.
There have been instances of the bride
groom refusing to go through the per
formance. says a writer in Outing Il
has then proceeded without him, and been
accounted valid. and several weeks later
he has yielded and had his head bathed.
