THIS is YOUR FIGHT.

! OF the Steptoe valley SmeltlnS *
Mining Co, and the only man asked
elected to office by the upward of
400 voters at Smelter, has been made
the target of abuse by the Demo-
cratic organ and machine throughout
the campaign.
Every employee of the mining and
ore reduction Companies of the dis
trict has been attacked through the
attacks made upon Mr.. Wise. With
these employees he has been charged
with being for sale at the price of
wages: with having bought and CO.
creed the employees at Shelter into
making him a candidate for commits
sIoner; with having participated in
alleged stuffing Of the registration at
Shelter: with having threatened dis
charge of every man at Smelter who
refused to attend certain meetings
Wise and the rest of the employees of
the companies in the district are
finally charged with being under or
ders to vote on Tuesday as instruct
ed or lose their jobs.
Mr. Miner, Mr.. Smelterman, are
these things true? You know best
whether you have been approached,
whether you have been threatened
with discharge if you do not vote as
1t is said you have been ordered to
on Tuesday. If the things charged
are not true, you know your duty on
Tuesday, when you will have a
chance To brand these lies for what
they are and choke them back in the /
lying throats that have given them
utterance Your votes for the Re-
publican ticket from top to- bottom /
will be the best answer.
As for Mr.. Wise personally, it will T
be occasion for lasting regret on the I
part of the tax payers of the county |
if he is not elected. 1t is seldom that
men of as high character, as large
ability and as great integrity, hon
esty and fairness can be prevailed |
upon to stand for election to such |
Office as that which he asks to be put |
in. When such men do come up, the
community cannot afford not to take
advantage of their services.
Mr.. Wise has made no extensive
campaign He should have had to
make none. The fact that be has
charge Of the pay roll of in the neigh
borhood of 1000 men in this dis
trict, that he is in general charge of
the books of these big mining con-
Germs: that during his residence in
the district there has never been an
honest word of criticism raised
against his personal or business con-
duct, should have been sufficient TO
elect him without the uplifting of his
hand. The lies that have been cir
culated however, about him and
about every employee of the compa-
MES of the district, has maze his
path different and 1t now comes down
to voting him in by the biggest pos
sible ma jority in order that deceney
may be upheld in the district, its
people freed from future danger of
vicious attacks upon their character
and the county put right in the eyes
of the public Wise's fight is your
fight. Make it at the polls on Tues
DAY.

MARKET bRACED
VERY DECIDEDLY
Yesterday the Best Day
in a Year--Recent De.
cisiOns Responsible

NEW YORK, March 25.-There
was increased appreciation in the
financial world today of the import
anee Of yesterdays supreme court
decision at Washington against the
validity of the Minnesota and North
Carolina railroad rate laws. The
late advance in the market yester-
day was traceable to this influence,
but not enough was known to per-
ceive the scope of the decision. The
principles laid down in the decision
are felt to provide material safe
guards in a situation which the fears
of the financial world have viewed
with much solicitude for many
months past Not only in the force
of existing state laws has there been
subject for timidity on the part of
capitalists and security holders, but
still more so in the threat of an ex-
tension of the campaign against the
corporations which would leave them,
in the troubled apprehension of their
owners, little chance for life.
II is from this extreme point of
view of the possible aggravation of
their troubles that the influence of
sentiment of the protection promised
The White Pine news. [volume] (Ely, Nev.) 1906-1910, 1908-03-26
MINING, MARKETS AND METAL

by the ruling OF the supreme court of
the United States must be estimated.
Severity of penalties In the way OF
fines and imprisonment such as might
work as an intimidation against an
appeal from the law are pointed out
as justifying the assertion of con-
stitutionaL right of protection. The
reassertion of the principle that suffi-
cheney of rates fixed by laws to ena-
BILE the company to obtain some re-
turn for the stockholders for their
investments Is subject to decision by
the courts as security against vio-
lation of constitutional rights was
comforting assurance to security
holders. The special application of
the decision was seen In the marked
response of certain stocks. CONSOLE
dated Gas, for instance, has threshed
out in the state courts the 80 cent
gas law on the claim that 1t was con-
fiscatory in its effect. This company
was an intervening party in the case
decided yesterday. Stocks of rail-
roads in some of the southern states
which have been most stringent in
their regulation of railroads were
prompt to reflect the significance of
the case. Northwestern railroads, al
though they seem to have an equal
interest in the question, we're less af-
fected, and this was undoubtedly be-
cause of the prominent place those
stocks have held in the previous ad-
vance IN the market.
There was, In fact, very extern
sive digestion of profits effected In
the course of the day and the price
movement was In consequence I'M
even and irregular at times. The
presidents forthcoming message was
a subject of discussion and there
were those about the stock exchange
protesting to know its contents. The
offered by Mr.. Hepburn
to the Sherman antitrust law were
assumed to direct the course of the
presidents sentiment An amend
ment of the present law so as to re-
strict its inhibition of agreements in
restraint of trade to those only which
are unreasonable would be received
with qualification in the financial
world and apparently throughout the
railroad world. The involvement of
that subject with the elaborate plan
for federal registration and extended
control of corporations by the gov
ernmen. authorities does not awaken
among those having to do
with the ownership and sale of cor
poration securities.
Profit taking took a good deal off !
the top price in the late trading, |
showed greater breadth and strength |
than for any day this year.

NEVADA CON. AND CUMBERLAND
BOTH SCORED SMART GAINS
First Named Made Advance Of Better than Dollar
Trading Improves in Tone all Along the Line
Local Market Keeps Step With Outside

Yesterday witnessed the best day
in trade that has been had in many
months. There was more support
under The market than In evidence at
any recent time. Buying on the part
of the public was apparent and il
looks as II things may have shaken
loose In this respect for more than a
passing whirl at investments.
Nevada Consolidated was the
strong feature among the eoppers,
leading the list with its advance
from the closing price of $11.62 on
Tuesday to close at $13.12h yester-
day. Adyices from the east with re-
gard to the advance of this stock
gave nothing in explanation further
than they were evidently out TO take
on those that appeared best. Cum
berland Ely was in on the advance
with Nevada Consolidated, though it
did not make as much gain as that
stock. II may come In for its in
ming today. II is coming to it.
In the local trade the advance of
Nevada Consolidated oecasioned a
good deal of close attention and
which was. the possible connection of
consolidation plans with the uplfft.
There was buying of both Nevada
Consolidated and Cumberland Ely.
The latter Is looked to here to catch
the Nevada Consolidated gait in
short order II sthe market continues
advance. Among the lower priced
stocks there was continued improve
ment In tone yesterday. everything
being considered to be on the nplift.
Sales during the day on the Ely ex-
change totaled 3.552 shares. They
were as follows: Cumberland Ely.

dress he arraigned the methods pro-
posed by Senator Foraker. He stated
that the Warner bill allowed the

the Foraker bill re-enlistment of the
soldiers was made obligatory under
easily flied conditions. The Forak-
er bill he declared was ruinous to
discipline in the army.
Senator Foraker introduced a res
oludon in connection with the matter
