Liability Act
Unconstitutional

That the Congressional Act
known as the Employers Liability
Law is not in accordance with
the Constitution of the United
States because it goes beyond
the bounds permitted in the re-
gulatlon of interstate commerce,
was the conclusion reached by
the Supreme Court of the United
States in deciding two damage
cases coming to the court from
the Federal courts of Kentucky
and Tennessee, which were
brought under the provision of
the law.
The decision was announced
by Justice White, that the act
is constitutional, although it
embraces subjects not within the
power of Congress to regulate
commerce, because one who en-
cages In interstate commerce
thereby admits all his business
concerns to the regulating power
of Congress. To state the pro-
position is to refute it. 1t as

prise, and this will insure its
early completion.
On the northeast part of the
property the ore shoot is from 80
to 120 feet wide, and the vein is
traceble on the surface for near
ly one thousand feet. There are
two prospect shafts sunk on the
claims, the deepest being about
one hundred and eight feet deep,
at which point water has been
encountered. From these shafts
about one hundred tons of ore
has been extracted, which will
average 60 per cent lead and 20
ounces silver, and carries some
copper. And it is reported, by
those who have seen the prop
erty, to be free from faults, cross
assures and other uncertainties
known to mining art. This,
taken together with other indi-
cations leads to the belief that
the Groom will speedily develop
into great mine.
The Groom mines are situate
about ten miles from the Nye
county line, and is surrounded
by 4 wealth of mineral territory.
Higgenson and associates, the
purchasing parties, will shortly
install hosting, pumping and
milling machinery and the Groom
section should soon be one Of
great activity as well as one of
great production, thereby again
vindicating the sound judgment
and persistency of the ''Old

T. J. Osborne and associates
have completed the execution of
an extension Of the lease and
bond on their Groom properties
to Chas. B. Higgenson. Hig-
genson held an option on the
mines for some monthspast, and
perhaps due more to the fnan-
cial stringency than any other
cause, asked for a short extern
sion, which has been granted by
the owners. The consideration
for the purchase of the mines is
$3.50, 900, which is to be made in
substantial payments at short
intervals.
The Groom mines have long
been looked at by tile mining
men of this section as one of the
greatest lead deposits in the
country. 1t first came to the at

Present Service
Satisfactory
Opinion of Business Men
and Others That Sched-
ule is Good

The following relative to the
present schedule on the Caliente
and Pioche railroad, appears in
the Salt Lake Tribune under
date of January:
Mining and professional men
returning from Phoebe, New,
are, according to local reports,
protesting against the schedule
on which trains are being oper-
ated from Caliente to Phoebe on
that branch of the Salt Lake
Route.
The gist of the protests seem
to be that passengers leaving
Salt Lake for Phoebe are obliged
to lay over several hours in Cal
iente before they can get a train
for Phoebe. 1t is claimed this
favors Los Angeles and the buy
ing of supplies in that place by
Phoebe people.
IT. c. Peck, general passen-
ger agent for the Salt Lake
Route, declared before leaving
for Los Angeles that the protests
are unreasonable and that first
class connections are made at
Caliente by the limited going
west and coming east with the
Caliente-Pioche trains. I'VE
are handling traffic to Phoebe the
best way possible until we get
time to complete our terminals
at Caliente, declared Mr.. Peck. "
We cannot see how, in justice,
travellers could protest against
the schedule as now adopted,
especially those Of US who live
in Phoebe. A careful survery
of the schedule on the San Pedro
will disclose the fact that closer
connections can be made with all
through trains on the present ar
rAngement, than any other that
could be gotten up. We have
ascertained the opinion of many
OF the business men here and
they are UNANIMOUS in the declar-
q ion that.the present schedule
is all right.
We do not believe it quite the
proper thing to begin register
ing protests at this time, when
the railroad officials seem to be
exerting every effort toward CIV
ing those on the Caliente branch
an up to date service.

IN interstate ccnmerce he there
by en- rs Congress w pt .sts
not delegated 70 It by the Con
stitution lin other words, with
the right to legislate concerning
matters of purely State concern.
1t rests upon the conception that
the Constitution destroyed that
freedom of commerce which it
was its purpose to preserve since
1T treats the right to engage in
interstate commerce as a privi-
lege which cannot be availed of
except upon such conditions as
Congress may prescribe, even
the conditions would be
otherwise beyond the power Of
Congress.
1T is apparent that if the
contention were well founded, it
would extend the power of Con-
gress to every conceivable sub
ject, however inherently local,
would obliterate all the lirnita-
tons Of power imposed by the
Constitution and would destroy
the authority of the States as to

Stock Market
News Bureau

All the signs indicate that the
Standard Oil Star is again rising.
The most active pools in the
street are those composed of
members of the socalled Stand
ard Oil crowd. The pressure
brought to bear on the market
in October and November, which
eliminated in the panic was
chiefly applied by the insiders in
the oil ring.
1t was never intended to bring
about actual panic conditions. 1t
was believed that the results de-
sired could be accomplished with
out causing widespread distrust
and disaster. Heinze with his
attempted United Copper corner
played the part of Mrs. O'Leary S
COW. The lantern kicked over
on the New York curb was the
active agent that started the
Wall street fire, which within a
week was sweeping through the
country with cyclonic speed.
None were quicker to come to
the rescue of crumbling financial
institutions and crippled fnan-
ciers than the Standard Oil peo-
pie, but they did not drop their
bags of dollars into the breach
and dam the food until they had
snatched some of the prizes
which were floating past.
All signs are that the Stand
ard Oil Amalgamated outfit have
corralled a substantial interest
in smelters possibly a control
that they have gobbled the great
Bingham and Ely Copper mines,
and they are laying their plans
to standardize the price Of COP
per, as they have standardized
the price oil, and as the steel
trust has standardized the price
of iron and steel
The announcement is jus.
made that Boston Consolidated
ores will be treated at the Gar
field smelter of the Amaril an
& Refining compqny.
The smelling combine thus en-
ploys its chief copper plant to
turn out dollars for it's enemy.
This looks as if the crippled and
over extended Guggenheim party
had surrendered to their more
competitors.
STANDARD Oil is advancing,
The markets are stronger. Fl
nancial New York is hopeful and
optimistic.
Favorable features of the week
were the declaration of several

Special Session
Is Convened
Much Business of Importance. in All
Probability, Will Come Before
That Body

The special session of the
Legislature convened the 14th.
pursuant to the call of the Cover
nor. The Governor submitted
his first message to the lawmak-
ers relative to the labor troubles
existing in the State, however
he reserved the right to submit
special messages from time to
time as circumstances might re-
quire from which it might be in
ferred that many measures of
Importance will be called to the
attention of the legislature dur
ing the session.
Following is a copy of the
first message submitted.
The Honorable, the Senate
and Assembly of the State of
Nevada, in Extraordinary
Session:
Gentlemen-I have the honor
under the constitution, to submit
to your honorable bodies a state
ment of the purpose for which
you have been convened, reserv-
the right to call your attention to
other legislative business while
in session. As indicated in the
call issued to the members bear
ing date Both of December,
Anno Domini 1907, the object
and purpose, now to be stated, is
legislative action concerning con-
tentions between labor unions
and mine operators in the mining
district of Goldfield, in this state.
From statements presented by
reliable citizens, representing
both sides of the controversy,
and from my own personal know
ledge from frequent visits to
Goldfield, for the purpose of u.s.
ing such information as | pos
sessed to prevent loss and trouble
occasioned by strikes, a letter OF
inquiry was indited by myself
and Attorney General Stoddard
to President Roosevelt, explain
ing conditions according to in
formation, and asking if he could
consistently send United States
troops to Goldfeld for the pur-
pose of suppressing riots or viol-
ence in case such should occur in
said mining district.
The president promptly and
kindly replied that he would,
providing that proper application
be made, stating the require
ments, which were complied with
and the troops came Immediately,
under instructions not to inter,
fere with the civil authorities Sc
long as they were able to pre-.
serve order. This policy has
been continually observed to the
satisfaction of a large percent
