ISN'T TT THE TRUTH

Once there was an old moss back,
who had been squatting on about fifty
claims for years, He was a typical
grounding, and the first of the year
found him putting up new notices on
all the ground he could cover. He
was meyer known to do any work or
any boosting for the camp, but he
had them beat bowling calamity and
hard times. When anyone came into
the district he would crawl into his
she'll and sulk, or else queer a deal
that his neighbor. was trying to make.
He put price on his own property
that would freeze anybody but Nor
gan, or Vanderbilt. One day a real
man called his bluff and offered him
his price in cash. but do you think
old mossback would deliver! No, sir,
his price had doubled over night, and
he wouldn't exchange his ground for
the United States. Finally the camp

A RATIFICATION
and Qualification

During the absence of Cleve Baker
from town, the big crowd of young
men known as the Cleve Baker club,
have secured Miners Union hall and
will hold forth there tonight to ratify
the nomination of their idol. 1t will
be genuine surprise for Mr.. Baker,
as he knows nothing of this move
ment. In fact the formation of the
Cleve Baker club was accomplished
without his knowledge. Non-partisan
In Its nature, it has gathered within
its active membership many of the
leading young men of Nye county.
and it is these men who have planned
the big doings for tonight.
Tonopah's most noted oratorical
spellbinders will be heard; and to re-
lieve the tension there will be plenty
of cigars, etc.
All friends of Cleve Baker are
cordially invited to join in the fes-
tivities, which will be put in action
at 8 o'clock.

was success, but because the old
geser died and let some one in who
wanted to do some actual mining
And this Is only one of the in
stances where the more money
man. ''the ground-hog," "the
mossback" and the "butter-in" make
it hard for the legitimate mining
man. Many good properties are
tied up and idle because the owner
always raises the price one notch
above the bid. He will never get to-
gether with the man who means bust
ness, and is most detrimental NUS
ance to any mining community. The
grounding is allowed to live merely
because the laws permit him to. He
can do just enough work to hold his
claims, and by relocation can keep
really good ground year after year.
The laws on the holding of mineral
land are sadly in need of revision.
