POSTAL is NOW COMING.

TONOPAH, April s. Within q
short time the Postal Telegraph and
Cable company will be operating
throughout Nevada and competing
with the Western Union,o says +. \.
Williams, secretary and treasurer OF
the Southern Nevada Consolidated
Telephone and Telegraph company to-
day in discussing the arrangements
that have been made between the two
companies. The Postal by the terms
agreed upon viii nse the lines of the
Nevada company throughout the state
and the Nevada company will hereby
secure an outlet to all the world for its
business.
Mr.. Williams, G F. Waterhouse,
general manager of the Nevada com
pany, and E. J. Nally, general mana.
ger and vice president of the Postal
company met and agreed on the above
terms.
The Postal will follow the Santa re
route into Nevada and will connect
with the Nevada company at Rhyolite.
Mr.. William stated today that the
route north from Tonopah had not
been agreed upon as yet, but would
be as o as the connection had been
made at Rhyolite. He also stated that
the work when started would be rush
ed to completion.
There are several routes under con
sideration. The Nevada company now
operates a line to Manhattan. From
there connection will be made with a
line that runs to Austin and from
+bere to Rattle Mountain Another
route is to Luning and from there to
Rawhide through Fairview and then
to Hazen. if satisfactory arrangements
could. be made. If satisfactory arran-
gements cannot be made with the IN
dependent companies, then, according
to Mr.. Williams, a direct line will be
put in between Tonopah n Reno,
and there connect with the Pacific
States Telephone company. At any
rate they are determined that the Pos
tai will make a bid for Nevada bust
ness.

A NEW TOWN.

The new town of Skookum. formerly
known as Watt, seven miles west OF
Ausin. and one mile from Leslie sta
ton ON the NC. r. r., is command
ing the attention of the best mining
men in Nevada, who are eager to IN
vest in the camp. Sales are of daily
occurrence and a number of properties
have been bonded. While work has
hardly been started, the showing thus
far made is phenomenal, and every
indication is that the camp will de-
velop into one of the best in the state.

After following closely the facts In
the case of Thomas Davis, alias
Wright, who, last November shot down
a negro cook. Oscar Colwell, in the
l.itchen of the Club restaurant; after
having sat upon the coroner's jury,
and there having listened to the
straightforward testimony of the few
witness in the case, untampered with
and unbiased; then having listened
to the masterful prosecution of the
case in the district court by district
attorney Quicker, pitted against a skill
full and well arranged defense, a de-
Tense. which one acquainted with all
the facts, shows the earmarke of pre-
arrangements, with its ~impIobabillty
as plain as day and then having n
nally seen those patent facts of guilt,
backed by the excellent prosecution OF
the ease, fade like chaff before the
wind in the minds of the jurors, we
can understand how it is that under
our system of criminal procedure,
crime goes unavenged and the law
breakers walk up and down our coun-
try unpublished.
We do not intend here to make a
harsh criticism of this case as was
done in the ease of Patsy Dwyer, who
was acquitted of a terrible murder by
a Jury of Elko county citizens. We
could not understand how it was that
twelve men sworn to act in accordance
with the law and evidence could ac-
quit Patsy Dwyer. We can in a meas
ure now understand how it was that
Dwyer was acquitted, and in this
Enthusiastically II SppmG that n Is not
the fault of the jurors, but of the
systems of criminal procedure n
the wide latitude given by the law
for the protection of the criminal.
Better that twelve guilty men should
go unpublished than one not guilty
should suffer, is the theory of the law,
and in the working out of the theory
twelve men out of twenty escape the
penalties for their crimes.
We are not posing as a higher court,
setting upon the caseof Thomas Davis.
He. has been acquitted, apd the cur
tain has rung down.. leaving him to
make his exit from the stage a free
man. Personally, we are glad that
Davis, as a fellow man, has been re-
leased from custody, that for him
there will be no hangman' s knot, nor
the long hours of suspense and prison
confinement. To feel otherwise would
be inhuman. We do feel however, in
the decision that has been reached in
this case hat there has been given
a dangerous Interpretation of the laws
which have been made for the pro
lection of life and liberty.
The criminal lawyer, defending a
man accused of crime, is not at fault
for. using all the technicalltles which
the law allows to save his client from
the punishment for his crime. His
business is to protect crime, and even
though he knows that his client is
guilty, he stands within the honor OF
his profession to use every effort TO
nave him freed and his guilt washed
away. On the other hand the prese-
cutting attorney, the attorney for the
people, is not at fault for the crime un-
punished, when to secure punishment
is impossible under the law. 1t was an

PICTURE ORE FROM CAMP.

Dave Graham one of the best known
of the old prospectors and mining men
returned to this city yesterday after
noon, says the Carson News, bringing
with him "a lot of fine samples of
gold ore from Mount Tobin, in Hum
boldt county. Mount Tobin is a new
which was discovered some time
ago by w. S. Hill, a partner to Mr.
Graham, and at the present time there
is quite a rush into the district.
The ore brought in by Mr.. Graham
fairly sparkles with free gold and he
states that they have a good ledge of
the high grade. A deal is on and will
likely be contaminated within the next
several days to thoroughly develop the
property.

alter tomorrow night. This announce
ment, it is thought, will give rise to
more than ordinary antieipa ton of
pleasure, because the fine quality of
this performance is thoroughly we'll
known in Birmingham. During its en-
gagement here last season this clever
musical comedy was witnessed by vast
throngs and its success was genuine,
No other production of it's kind seemed
to strike the popular fancy quite so
emphatically.
The comedy of Comm Thro' the
Rye" is of the sparkling, wholesome
sort which compels irrepressfbie laugh
ter and 1t is continuous throughout
the performance except when relief
comes with the rendering of some beau
tiful song number. Its musical score
is replete with dainty, "jingling" mel
odies which become instantly popular
Il is announced that a great many new
musical features have been introduced
since last season as well as several
fresh comedy scenes and incidents.
This organization of comedians, sing
ers and dancers is still headed by
Frank Labor whose work as Mott
the Tailor will not soon be forgotten
by those who have witnessed it. Mr..
Lalor is surrounded this season by
practically new cast of principals
VIII ose names are a guarantee of a
highly enjoyable performance. Chief
among them are Miss Sallie Stembler
Miss Eveleen Dunmore, Miss Dorothy

will be heartily welcomed in this city
and deservedly so. The reserved seats

Fritter was especially effective, exciting
much favorable comment.
Miss June Mathis gave a charming and
sympathetic portrayal of Peggy. She
plays with a deft hand bringing out with
delicate and subtle strokes the sweet
ness, ingen nousness and sincerity of the
character. The clever little woman fairly
divided the honors with Robert ODER,
whose Interpretation of Brewster was
most convincing
Others in the cast who acquit them
selves with dinstinction are: John Junior

"Brewster's Millions"

The Richmond News-Leader says of
.'Brewster's Millions" the attraction
which comes to the Jefferson theatre
Saturday matinee and night:
According to theatrical tradition and
the expectations of producers and mar
ayers throughout the country, the hoodoo
fastens its clutch on every box office
the week preceding the Christmas holi-
days. But the hold of the hoodoo Is
broken in this mans town.
"Brewster's Millions put the kibosh
on the hoodoo at the Academy of Music.

George Barr McCutcheon's story of the
breezy American, who has to spend
81. 100000 in a rational way within year
in order to win legacy of 100000. had
preceded It; and the interest evlnced In
this attraction was the natural thing.
1t Is safe to venture the assertion that

1.-THE Heir to the Hoorah."

The jefferson mana cement announces
for Wednesday night, January s, THE
Heir to the Hoorah," a new comedy
which kept New York laughing all last
season.
1.-THE Heir to the Hoorah" was writ
ten by Paul Armstrong, former New
York newspaper worker, as wellknown
in the west as in the east, who has
already made some reputation as
playwright through his previously pro-
duced pieces "St. Anne" "A Blue Grass

La Shelle, and it is said that, like all
the excellent productions offered under
his name, 1.-The Heir to the Hoorah' is

rich, the heir to which is baby, whose
birth during the progress of the Sec
ond act brings about a reconciliation
between the young husband and wife
whose parting in act l is the feature
of the plot. The fun in THE Heir to
