President Roosevelt Further Recon-
mendS.

A special message from President
Roosevelt recommending the passage
of certain legislation was read to
both houses. The democrats ap-
plauded the statement that the time
has come for the revision of the
tariff. The republican representa-
tives applauded at the end OF the
message. In the senate it was re-
ceived without comment of any kind.
The message recommended prohi-
bition of child labor, the passage of
an employers liability hill to confirm
with the decision of the supreme
court; establishment of postal saw
ings banks; removal of the tariff en-
pulp wood; substitution of arbitra-
ton for strikes; amendment of the
interstate commerce law; outlawing
the blacklist and boycotts. and finan-
cial legislation. President Roosevelt
would give the railroads the right to
make traffic agreements on approval

New Shelter for DOUGLAS Assured.

All doubt about the building of
smelling plant in Douglas by the
Shattuck-Arizona Mining company
may be regarded as past now, not
outstanding the uncertainty which
has surrounded the proposition dur
lug the past year since the matter
was first talked of. During the past
few weeks there have been in Doug
las a number of representatives of
the large machinery houses of the
country for the purpose of submit
ting bids for the new plant, and it
was stated by a man who knew about
the situation that some of the bids
have already been handed in to the
Shattuck managers. Other bids are
known to be in course of preparation
and are expected to be received in
the very near future.
1t is the expectation now that the
bids will all be in before the first of
April and that the contract will be
awarded early in May, possibly by the
first of that month.
The Shattuck smelter will be COM
pleted first with two 1S00-ton
furnaces, according to the plans
which were made last year. If work
is started by the last of May or the
first of June, it's completion may be
expected about the first of next year,
or at least one furnace should be
ready to start by that time.
The building of this smelter in
strengthening Douglas as CONNER
cial point; it will bring many addi-
tional wage-earners here. What
makes Douglas so desirable as loca-
ton for reduction plants is the un-
limited quantity of superior water
to be found here. The water to be
had in this city is said to be the very
best for making steam, in that it has
no damaging effect on boilers. The
boilers of the c. & A. plant are said
to have remained free from scale OF
any kind after years of service with
the water secured from the q. & A.
wells at that plant
The loca tion for the Shattuck
smelter is about one-quarter of a
mile south of the c. 81 A. and about
the same distance west of the Cop
per Queen. Typographical surveys
have already been made of this ex'
cellent site and it is ready for the
work of foundation building to begin.
The street car line can reach the
Shattuck smelter by the construction
of half mile of new track, and it i:
understood this will be done when
ever the work is ready to begin OF
the new smelter.-American

The New Mexicans Endorse Mr.. Taft.

The republican territorial conven-
tion at Silver City adopted resolu-
tions endorsing Taft, and instructing
the New Mexican delegates to Chi
cago to vote for him. Resolutions
were also adopted endorsing the
Roosevelt administration and urging
statehood, the further reclamation
of arid lands and forest protection.
Governor Curry, addressing the
convention, appealed to the dele
gates to endorse Taft and declared
that Taft had already had enough
votes to elect him and if he were
elected he would work for New Mex
ico's statehood.

Zone Touch of Nature Makes the
Whole World Kin"

When a rooster finds big fat
worm he calls all the hens in the
farm yard to come and share it. A
similaI trait of human nature is to
be observed when d man discovers
something exceptionally good-he
wants all his friends and neighbors to
share the benefits of his discovery.
This is the touch of nature that
makes the whole world kin. This ex-
plains why people who have been
cured by Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy write letters to the manu-
facturers for publication, that others
similarly ailfng may also use it and
obtain relief. Behind every one OF
these letters is warm hearted wish
of the writer to be of use to someone
else. This remedy is for sale by al
druggists.

HARTMAN, 90, WON'T QUIT YET,
Still Too Many Moves Left, He Says, to
Fulfill Last Years Declaration.


Edward II. Hartman at sixty is
much too busy to think about retiring
from the railroad business. On his
last birthday year ago last Tues
day, he thought that another twelve
month would find him ready to quit
the game, but now he says that there
are still too many moves to be made.
He doesn't propose to stop even to
consider retiring until the complica-
tions on the industrial chessboard
have been resolved sufficiently to en-
able him to see clearly a little dis
lance ahead. Until then Mr.. Harri-
man thinks he owes it to 10000 stock
holders and 10000 employees in his
system to stay "on the job"
This definition of his position Mr..
Hartman made in the course of his
afternoon constitutional along Fifth
avenue. The reporter met him COM
ing out of his house, and asked how
things looked from Mr.. Hartmann
viewpoint of sixty years. 1t was
the railroad man who spoke of the
chessboard:
81 wouldn't undertake to say" said
Mr.. Hartman. "No sensible man
would undertake now to predict what
is going to happen or to make'a COM
prehensive statement of present con-
ditions. There are too many moves

stability is reached to make such a

DEATH VISITS TWO
HOMES
HOWARD WIGHTMAN PASSES
AFTER LINGERING ILLNESS
Surrounded by Loved Ones Spirit of
Mrs. w. H. Sheldon Takes Flight
to Home Above.

Two well known Winnemucca fam
lilies passed down through the valley
of the shadow of death yesterday, and
watching by the bedside of a loved
one saw the spirit take its flight, and
departing, leave behind sorrow and
dark dispair.
Last evening Harvard Wightman,
the six-year-old son of Joseph and Lois
Wightman passed away after an ILL.,
ness of three weeks, which began with
measles, later developing into an ulce-
rated sore throat, and ending in case
of general inaction, which broke down
the constitution of the patient little
suffered.
Surviving the deceased is father
and mother, and younger brother,
Alton.
Another death which causes sorrow
throughout the community was that of
Mrs. H. H. Sheldon, who passed away
at noon yesterday after lingering
illness, which has been critical since
the birth of her daughter, about two
weeks ago. Surrounded by loved ones,
her husband, her mother and sisters,
the latter having been summoned to
her deathbed from California, che
breathed her last. The coming of the
winged messenger found her ready to
90, and her greatest concern was over
the parting with her loved ones and
their sorrow and despair.
Mrs. Sheldon had been resident of
Winnemueca but two years and yet
she had endeared herself to the com
munity Possessed of the most estima-
BILE qualities of womanly character,
her untimely end causes sorrow to be
expressed on all sides. She was ~
years of age and is survived by her
husband, HI. H. Sheldon, chief draugh-
tsman for the Western Pacific at this
point. Besides her husband. she leaves
mother, Mrs. G.. B. Lynch, Mrs. Geo
Blathen. a sister, residing at Oakland
California, and two brothers, Edward
