POSTAL TELEGRAPH Is
COMING TO 00LDFIELp

f. ]. Nally. vice president and general
of the Postal Telegraph and
Cable company of America, spent several
days in Goldfield and Tonopah this week.
where he had contracts prepared for the
installation of the system in Southern
Nevada.
Representatives of the Southern Neva-
da Telegraph and Telephone company,
including F. G. Warehouse and F. Y.
Williams. were here and met with Mr..
Nally. They are prime movers in
the plan to bring the Postal company
here.
The work of construction will begin
as soon as the contracts are signed and
it will be but a few months. probably
weeks, before the Southern Nevada min
ing districts will nave a competing tele-
graph line, with possibilities OF long
distance telephone connections with the
outside world. The Postal Telegraph
line will be built to Goldfield and Tono-
pah from Reno and will probably be con-
tinued as far south as Searchlight. The
belief is general that the coming OF the
new system and it's attendant rivalrles
will result in not only better service,
hut cheaper rates. James f. keelyn OF
the Little Florence is one OF the prime
movers in the enterprise.

CHANGE OF OFFICIALS ON
T0N0PAH AND 0oLDFIELp. r. n

The Tonopah and Goldfeld Railroad
company yesterday made announcement
of its several appointments as contained
in the following general notice posted at
Tonopah:
Tonopah and Goldfeld Railroad COM
pany. Executive offices. Tonopah. New.
March 26, 1908. The following appoint
ments have been made, effective April 1,
prox.:
Mr.. III. r. Hanlin as general superin-
tendent in direct control of operations
and maintenance. and,
Mr.. w. D. Forster as general freight
and passenger agent in charge of freight
passenger and other traffic range
ments.
Appointments vice Mr.. ]. F. Hedden
at present holding both offices, resigned
as of date stated.
Address of both officers, Tonopah, New
The office of assistant general freight
and passenger agent will be abolished as
of April l..
This order abolishes the office of traf-
fc manager. which has been held by Mr.
Forster, and he is made the general
freight andepassenger agent of the road
with headquarters : at Tonopah. The
promotion of Mr.. Forster is gratifying
to his many friends in Goldfeld. as it is
a just recognition of his worth as an of
fetal and a gentleman. but the wisdom
of changing the Office from Goldfield to
Tonopah is questioned by the business
public of this city. Goldfeld gives the
Tonopah and Goldfeid railroad more
business than any other point on the
line. 1t is the commercial metropolis OF
Southern Nevada and the road ought te
be closely in touch with the business
men of Goldfeld through it's officials.

KERN APPRECIATES HONOR
BECAUSE TWAS NOT ASKED

DENVER, July i0.-John w. Kern of
Indiana, the nominee for vice presi-
dent on the Democratic ticket, received
the news of the action in the Albany
hotel in his apartments.
When, early in the day, matters be-
gan to shape themselves in his direc-
tion and his selection became almost
a certainty, Mr.. Kern determined that
he would remain away from today's
session, and accordingly his seat was
occupied by an alternate.
IT am profoundly appreciative OF the
honor which has been conferred upon
me-" said Mr.. Kern when seen shortly
after the convention adjourned. 'T re-
gard the honor all the greater because
did not seek the place, nor did my
delegation"
On the floor below the rooms occu-
pied by Mr.. Kern the Indiana delega-
ton headquarters were thronged with
persons from all parts Of the country
who called to congratulate Indiana's
representatives on the choice of the
convention. Mr.. Kern visited his head
quarters, and he was given an ovation.
Tomorrow night the vice presidential
nominee will leave for Lincoln, where
he will see Mr.. Bryan and discuss the
forthcoming campaign.

Ry Associated Press.

Fy Associated Press.
USOVO, Russia, July 10-An inquest
into the fatal coal mine explosion last
week has revealed terrible picture
of the archaic methods of mining in
Russia and the utter absence OF In
spection.
1t has been a matter of common
knowledge for years past that the
Rittovsky mine was dangerous.
The workmen named it "the inferno"
because of the prevalence of sitting
gas in the workings, and they would
only consent to go down for double
wages.
The explosion itself was not of great
force, and a majority of 300 men who
lost their lives were burned to death
or suffocated by afterdamp.
1t would have been possible to save
all but about a dozen below If prompt
measures had been taken, as fully one
hour elapsed after the explosion be-
fore the flames broke out
During this hour the rescuing party
waited with folded hands for informa-
ton as to how and where they were to
descend.
Immediately after the explosion the
mine engineer recklessly descended the
main shaft without mask. He was
overcome by the damp and brought to
the surface. He had to be revived,
after which he drew a rough sketch of
the interior of the NINE and 1t was
on this that the rescuing party went
ahead.

DENVER, July 1O.-The Democratic

day for the purpose of organizing, but
in view of a telegraphed invitation
from Mr.. Bryan, which was submitted
to the committee by DIR. Hall, the Ne

fer action until the wishes of the
Democratic candidate could be ascer-

Thomas Taggart of Indiana was

The skillful manner in which Mr.
Lamb has, during the convention just
closed, handled the vice presidential
campaign of John w. Kern, has made
him prominent in the party and his
friends are strongly urging him as
the most suitable man to manage the

No definite selection OF a chairman

BY Associated Press.
DENVER, July 10.-The Democratic
national convention concluded its
labors late today by the nomination of
John w. Kern of Indiana for vice
president, completing the ticket on
which William Jennings Bryan was
the nominee for president
The nomination was made by ac-
clamation amid the resounding cheers
of delegates and spectators.
No ballot was necessary, as the
trend of sentiment had set irresistibly
toward the Indiana candidate, state
after state registering their delegates
In his favor and all other candidates
Withdrawing before the universal de-
mand for his nomination.

of Kern for second place.
The Call Of States
Indiana presented the name of Kern:
Colorado, through Ex-Governor Thomas.
placed in nomination Charles A. Towne
of New York; Connecticut presented
Archibald Mcneil and Georgia Clark
Howell.
The names of Judge George Gray of
Delaware and of John Mitchell of Illi-
nois were not presented, owing to the
positive requests of these men not to
ave their names go before the con-
vention.
For time II looked as though a bal
lot would be required, but the steady
line of states which Joined in second
ing Kern's nomination soon made 1t
apparent that the chances of all other
candidates had been extinguished.
Mr.. Towne, in person, was the first
candidate to recognize the decisive
nature Of the Kern movement, and in
a ringing speech he withdrew his name
from consideration and pledged his sup
port to the ticket of Bryan and Kerr.
Kern Left Only Candidate
| With this quickly followed the with
drawal of Howell and Mcneil, thus
leaving the Indiana man alone in the
field. The withdrawal of Mcneil was
accomplished by motion that the
nomination of Kern be made by ac-
clamation.
The motion was carried with a deaf
ening shout and the great assemblage
broke into a clamorous demonstration
on the accomplishment Of it's work, and
the completion of the Democratic ma
tional ticket.
The nomination was made at 4:23 D.
m. and the convention thereupon ad-
journed without date.
The Democratic national committee
will assemble tomorrow to complete
its new organization and to select the
chairman who will be the commander
in-chief of the Democratic forces In
the campaign.
The throngs of delegates and spec
tators are scattering tonight for their
homes and every train is bearing away
thousands from the eventful scenes of
the Denver convention.
