1.-THE DAY AFTER"

The Yerington Times was in trou-
BILE the day after Christmas. 1t is
evident from the following that the
printers on the paper got too much
of the holiday spirit into them. Lis
ten to this:
I'VE ASK YOUR SYMPATHY"
I'VE wish to call the attention of
our readers to this number of the
Times. 1t is what is known in the
Office as the day after edition; that
is to say, it looks to us just like men
say they feel the morning after a
night of hilarious indiscretions.
1.-The editor, being one who is an
honored member of the ranks of the
tee-totalers. never did try to make ex-
cuses for men who, because the holt
day season is at hand, endeavor to
and do deplete the stock in trade of
the thirst parlors
But printers the world over will
forget their dignity on Christmas.
Worse than that, they forget their
paper on that day and the editors
kind advice to them to cut it out is
met with the firm command to go to
hell. Therefore, we do not apologize,
but ask for sympathy"

service to humanity as we'll as to
themselves. II would later come TO
be looked upon as the greatest phil
anthropie movement, in results for
the betterment of the financial vel
fare of the people, that the world
ever witnessed. The masses know
nothing about mining, the industrial
enterprise. As consequence they
are short millions annually through
lost opportunities and through Wild
cat investments made in the spirit of
gambling. which has no place in as

The News believes that this district
will experience highly prosperous
times well in advance of other camps
of the country, or, for that matter,
in advance of other sections of the
country no matter the particular in
dependent This for reasons which
have from time to time been set forth
in these columns. In the first place
the camp has not suffered with the
same severity from the general set
back which copper camps have ex-
perienced, particularly the producing
camps, which have had their forces
cut from half to whole. Here there
has been practically no disturbing al
iteration in operations. Everything
has gone ahead along the lines orig
inally planned and we will crowd up
to the producing stage just about as
soon as would otherwise have been
the case. Finally, whenever this
camp is ready to produce it can go
about it with assurance that its out
put will find ready market at profit
able figures. for it can put its bullion
on the market at figures which will
bring profit with copper at price pro-
hibiting production by practically all
the other camps of the country. For
these reasons and others which fol-
low in sequence there is every
ground for the belief expressed above,
that the district will be first to re-
cover from such embarrassment as
may have been made in the country
at large by reason of the close times
of last year.

In his Boston Journal Mr.. Munsey
daily advises the purchase of coppers
as the best of investments. In the
current issue of his magazine the
same Mr.. Mnnsey advises the pnr-
chase of indnstrials for investment
and ignores mining, further than TO
direct a eontemptuous sneer at the
industry a. a gamble, though in the
next breath printing the figures as
ISOLATED with the enormous returns
made by this industry last year. Be-
fore setting up as an adviser of the
people in the matter of placing their
savings 10 best advantage, Mr.. Mum
sey. the magazine publisher. should
consult with Mr.. Munsey, the news
paper publisher. The conference
might bring about better under
standing as to what mining really
represents as one of the hest possible
investments of the day, in connection
with the exercise of the same sort
of business judgment that is requisite
to successful investment in any
line. From such an understanding
and its advancement in the columns
of the magazine and the iournel that
portion of the public which follows
the columns of these publications and
has confidence in them might materi-
ally benefit.

Opening of an oil field on the line
OF the Tonopah & Tidewater railroad
would be an immense thing for this
camp. 1t would mean cheap fuel in
easy range and on direct line of
transportation. The writer on re-
cent trip along the line of the Tono-
pah & Tidewater had occasion to re-
mark that formation prevalent was
favorable 10 oil and believes, now that
live seepage has been found in this
formation, that there Is an oil field
there of large extent and similar in
character to the fields of California
from the Kern river country south.

ty values will be correspondingly
high, which means higher than at
present and doubtless higher than
they have ever been. 1t must not
be taken from this, however, that We
believe that Ely will be the center of
population or of general activity in
the district. That point, we believe,
in the very nature of things must be
at Ely City, with plenty of room and
side for everybody.

In three years. 1908, 1906 and
1907. the railroads have sold securi-
ties amounting to five thousand mil
lions, that Is. have absorbed 5000
millions of the floating capital of the
world. That is twice the cost of four
years of civil war to the federal gov
eminent, from 1861 to 1865. This
1000 million has not been destroyed !;
on the contrary. it will. in its turn,
become productive. But such drafts
for any purpose necessarily disturb
the money markets of the world.

Mr. Binkhorst. a recent arrival in
the district to engage in the conduct
of trust company, is out with as
sertion that he finds the present time
attractive for entry because of the
reason that depressed times have

truth. Ely realty values as a whole

tions, such as attend the opening of

conditions, which are such as come
to every mining camp when it casts
off its first rush clothes and settles
to the permanent business basis
which is to stay with it through the
balance of its history and which is to
make for greater, more substantial
prosperity for everybody than posi-
BILE under rush conditions. Neverthe-
less, Ely realty values nave declined
as a matter of fact very little. There
has been very far from the sweep

ner intimates. Nor do we believe
that a sweeping decline will ever oc-
cur in these values, certainly not be-
low the present levels. Ely realty
values are as low as they will ever

Waterbury Trimmed by the New Haven Team --All Other
 Results.

The Journal-C Courier describes that game of yesterday as follows: sr,
 "The first eight innings of battle I banned out all to the merry for our nine, with six tallies to the good,
 and up till then the contest proved
 steady and full of interest. The last
 two sessions had something of sen sational finish imbued in them, not for George Bone's fleet, however, but for Harry Durant's squadron. Prior
 to this pill massacre indications
 pointed to a clear bulletin for the .vis-
 itors who were quietly accommodating goose eggs. Thinking the diet had
 lasted for a sufficient length of time and had become decidedly unpalat- able, the Brass city infantry began
 to attack Joe Stoup, the local twirler, | in great style What proved to be an incentive toward their bombardment I was the fact that in their last game against Stoup, they had smashed in six runs in the final session. Helping the visitors was the beginning of a ! breakup in the playing of the locals. 1 Six Bingos out of the ten secured in 1 the game were made in these last two sessions, one man was presented a | walking ticket, and two boots by Pleiss and Havel, left fielder and shortstop of the locals, capped the eli max. Luckily the rally of the visit ors subsided still with two tallies be- hind and our team having six runs, took the game

In the first inning Bronkie after walk ing Pleiss, soaked Zacher and Kid Sherwood. This filled the bags and when Havel fondled the willow, he also got: tapped, which tap meant run for our team, Our nine again sent man around the angles when Jerry Cornell bingoed with his trusty stick and Ed Pleiss sent out slash ing two-bagger into his own garden. Three more runs were secured on three singles and a base on balls in the fifth session by the locals. -, f
 "The prettiest part of the playing manifested itself in the sixth session, when three of Bones followers, each owned bag. One man had met his waterloo and Zacher, proprietor of center garden cove, prepared to take his chance with the stick. For once good team work showed itself for the way that squeeze play worked only resulted from Bone's orders. Zacher just gave the horsehide a gentle love tap, sending 1t gracefully bounding out of harms way toward first. That did the trick, scoring Waters, who took first on o'Rourke's, the visiting shortstop, error. This tally finished the locals scoring" The score:

THE LEADERS LOST,

Bridgeport, Aug 13.-Bridgeport won a nerve racking game at New. field park yesterday afternoon from Hartford that went nearly two hours 5 to 4. Costly errors on the part oi Hartford had more to do with the final result than batting by the home team. as Hartfords misplays proved very costly, since they were punched with the hits of the home team. Swanson by his wildness in hitting batters also contributed to the result.
 As no regular umpire showed up, the work was done by Waller of Bridgeport and Wilson of Hartford, their decisions on balls and strikes being often questioned by the ccrowd. The score: R.H.E Bridgeport .00004 *-6 8 I Hartford 70 210 0-4 6 5

Springfield, Aug 13.-Gus Soffels 2 Silversmiths went up against superi- or baseball yesterday afternoon in Hampden park. when Dan O'Neil's Ponies slipped the Nutmeggers their second defeat this week in 8 to score. Occasional flashes of good heady baseball showed up during the game, but for the most part the nine innings were played in a rather lis s.less. fashion. The Pony swat smiths had the necessary .wallop when needed and prevented any breaks by the visitors beyond the two runs gleaned during their half of the nine innings.
 Connor was the bright particular star of the whole bunch. Two sin gles and ripping two-bagger feli to his credit in the three times he was. up.

London. Aug 1s.--After passing two weeks with kinsmen in Ireland and incidentally adding to their ath- letie prestige by scoring a series of victories on the green sod of the En- erald isle, John Hayes. the winner of the Marathon race, Matt McGrath, John Flanagan and others of the CO., terie of athletes who were responslble for the brilliant triumph of America in the Olympic games. will leave to- day for home on board the Oceanic.
 Wherever the little band of irish- Americans which humbled John Bull in contests of speed and enduranee went the members were given a great reception by enthusiastic irtshmen. The athletes were feted and enter tained and speak in highest terms Of the reception accorded them.
 Hayes was one of the most popular members of the party. and at Nenarh. where he passed most of his time with his grandfather. the little Irish-AmeF- iean was presented with q commemo- rative medal and service plate. Hayes did not take part In any races. but gave several exhibition runs.
 Martin Sheridan is not a member of the returning party. He will rs- main in Ireland for some time vaf. A big public reception will be ksla in Dublin Friday night in honor of the champion ail-ruund athlete.
