Throughout the state there is a
great hue and cry because 1t has
been set forth that the Southern Pa
citic is charging three times as much
for freight haulage within Nevada as
1t is on lines 1t operates in other
sta ties. The tremendous stretches of
country in this state from which the
railroads derive nothing in business,
together with the high expenses of
operation, particularly In the case of
the Southern Pacific by reason of
heavy grades it has to deal with,
readily account for higher charges
within its boundaries than prevail in
more advanced and better built up
sections of the country. However, by
admission of the railroads recently
in voluntary reduction of passenger
rites. the time has beer reached in
development which macs the higher
charges that have prevailed dispro-
rtionate to the bus less handled.
Reduction is in order will doubt
less be made, but there s still fair
ness to the railroads and the money

They should not be driven to curtail-
ment of improvements and extern
sions, for the benefit of new country

DEAD FROM PARALYSIS
George Crismon, Widely Known in
West, Ends Long and Useful
Life i'm Salt Lake.

SALT LAKE, Jan. 29.-George
Crismon, president of the Utah Min
ing company, man who has led an
adventurous career for a great many
years in the west and who has been
particularly identified with mining in
Utah, died at his home in Sugar
House ward at 11:40 o'clock, Mon
day morning. Mr.. Crismon died of
paralysis. He was stricken early in
the morning and sank steadily until
his death. No hope was entertained
for his recovery after daylight. He
was "a years of age.
Mr.. Crismon was one of the most
prominent mining men In the west
He was among the first who went to
California during the gold excitement
and during the stirring times at Pla-
oerville and East Auburn he made
numerous trips between the camps
and Utah over the Overland trail. In
later years Mr.. Crismon devoted his
energies to the development of
Utah's mineral wealth, being a pio-
neer operator in the Tintic district,
and at different periods owned the
Centennial Eureka and Mammoth
mines.

Taft did the polite thing in adyis-
ing the New York state Republican
committee that he desired, so far as
personally concerned, that his candi-
daey should net be permitted to en-
ter New York and that Governor
IL ghes should have the full delega-
ton If he wished such support in the
Chicago convention. The move could
only boost Taft stock, while taking
nothing from it, for the reason that
lie could not have secured New York
from Hughes if he had tried. That
such was the case the secretary
doubtless assured himself before
writing the letter. That the move
Will hurt the Hughes candidacy, how
ever, as some of the eastern leaders
are inclined to believe. is doubtful.
The Hughes support is made up of
a more thoughtful class of people
than that.

NEVADA MINING NOTES.

The Florence Annex Leasing COM
pany, operating on the Red King, one
of the properties of the Florence
company, has been in great ore for
some time, but has been handicapped
on account of the labor troubles.
There has been shipped from the
ground only four carloads of ore, but
1t was stuff that averaged better than
$500 a ton. The ore shoot has wild
ened out to three feet in the upraisey
and as it is being shot down will run
$500 a ton. 1t is still too high to
meet the desires of the smelter trust.
but with the improved financial con-
dition, all grades of ores will be well
comedy received At the 400 and
500 foot levels the ore shoot has been
entered also. and while not as rich
as in the upper level, the bodies are
much wider and of shipping grade.

THE LEGISLATURES WORK.

The News is disposed to give the
Legislature full credit for work well
performed in passing the state police
bill. 1t does not agree with those who
are finding fault because of alleged
loldup of the Goldfield Mining asso-
citation with threat to turn down the
I'LL in the lower house unless the as
ISOLATION withdrew from position
taken in a resolution against the en-
pioyment of Western Federation men.
This resolution, as the Goldfield asso-
citation manfully admits, was in yio-
liz lion of a provision of law on the
statute books of the state. The as
soeiation believed, and believes. the
law to be unconstitutional, and il
Probably is, but il is on the books
and until disposed of by court de-
eision or by repeal should be obeyed
Peoause laws are bad or unfit is no
reason why they should be ignored.
Regular and sufficient means are pro-
vided for disposing of them and these
i1eans must at all times be recog-
Inized If the community and the state
would enjoy good government
II, as it now appears, the lower
house of the legislature acted on such
premises in the case of the Goldfeld
association it is entitled to credit for
demanding full observance of law on
the part of the interests the associa-
ton represents before extending to
those interests further protection
The ranting of few Scraggses,
whose numbers when the showdown
came proved as Insignificant as their
yaporings, happily for the good
standing of the state as well as for
its material welfare, gave the legis-
lature undeserved evil repute in the
4 ''lier days of its session. Such
criticisms as may have been made in
that time on the strength of the noise
made in the index by the few mouth
ers who hold forth, the News, for
its part. withdraws to make place for

As for the state police, the orga-

great deal in the state aside from
any connection whatever with labor

handled, the police organization will
rid Nevada of many dangerous char
scters, with whom the municipal and
county authorities have in the past
been unable to cope by reason of in
adequate resources in money and
men. In Texas and Arizona. where
silailar conditions exist in large ex-
panses of thinly populated country,

adopted in this state works admira-
by and has resulted in vast improve

If he wishes to add a new window, or to put in the electric light, it must be done at his own expense. You are to imagine a procession of tenants passing through every London house, each one of them laying out money on some pet improve ment of his own--this one adding a billiard room, that one concentrating on a gas cooking range, a third lavish ing parquet flooring upon the drawing room, a fourth bringing the bathroom up to date, a fifth installing a heat ing system, and so on. And every one of these additions become in the end the landlords property.

Tiny Motors New Task.

The smallest electric locomotives en- gagged in practical, every day work are not over three feet long or eighteen inches high; and they run upon a sin gle rail-quite frequently upon a wire cable The trolley pole which takes the current Is but half yard in length
 These small locomotives are known as telphers, the name being derived from the Greek words signifying "tO carry far" But the term Is by no means descriptive, for 1t would take a recordbreaking polysyllable of Ger man extraction to do justice to these marvelous little machines.
 ThsA use being confined almost en- tirely to the yards and shops of great manufacturing plants, or to places where raw material such as coal, sand, stone, etc, is unloaded and handled. they are unfamiliar to most people not identified with such works and op- erations. But in the few places where their installation brings them before the public they arouse very great in terest
 The motors haul a train and each of the cars is furnished with an electric hoisting appliance. by means of which it may be lowered from the telpher line to the ground. Then 1t may be instantly disconnected and run upon it's own wheels as shop truck to any distant portion of the floor.
 A little consideration will now show the flexiblility of this system Raw material can be unlOaded from the railroad cars directly upon the telpher cars. These can be instantly elevated to the second or third stories of the railroad storehouse and then run on their own little wheels to any portion of that floor, the freight unloaded and stored. or they can be run along the telpher line directly to the mills across the river and there lowered to any floor of either of the buildings and the material deposited at the point re- quired for manufacture. In like man. ner finished material is taken from any point in the mills and transported to the railroad storehouse for ship ment.-August Technical World.

pot Mir. Mullen forthwith posted the advertisement in two conspicu- ous places about town and is now awaiting results.
 According to the advertisement sealed proposals for carrying the mail each way as often as required by the postmaster will be received at the office until August 22nd. that is to say midnight of August 21st. The contract will be awarded for a stat ed length of time and the person to whom it is warded must be equip ped to handle the business in an eXpedient manner. No written con- tract or bond is required but the bidder must be over sixteen years of age. In making the bid he shall specifify the rate per annum ex- pected and only a reasonable com pensation will be allowed.
 All this has become necessary through the moving of the depot and the establishment of a union depot. When the depot is within eighty rods of the postoffice, the responsibility iof getting the mail to and from the office rests with the railroad. Over that distance. the postoffice depart ment has to look out for it. The moving of the depot places the dis tance at a little better than 100 rods, wherefore the desire of the de- partment to secure the services of some competent party to take the work. Postmaster Mullen has the blank form of the bids which he will give to anyone desiring to make application for the position. It is not thought likely. however, that there will be a great rush for it. G. A. Goodwin now has part of the work and the railroac men look aft CT the rest of it.
