MR.. HEARNE,s CANVASS.

Our fellow townsman Mr.. Hearne,
in his campaign for the gubernatorial
nomination is developing some side
lights that show up the methods that
are used to defeat him. In an inter
view he speaks thus of the Upshur
convent on:
Il carried four of the six districts in
the county. ! had a majority of the
votes cast in the county. And didn't
make a campaign, either personally or
through my friends, with a bundle OF
money in one hand and a bottle OF
whiskey in the other"
TO whom does Mr. Hearne refer in
this connection? Who is attempting
to carry convention with "a bundle OF
money in one hand and bottle OF
whiskey in the other?' The honest
republican voter of Upshur county
and elsewhere in this state should
make a note of these charges and
scratch the candidates who are guilty
of such nefar.ous methods. Again he
says impressively and with truth.
"The Lord preserve the people from
mass conventions for misrepresentins
instead of representing the senti
ments of the people. If the people
wish TO get rid of machine rule where
the minority dictates a nomination il
can only be done through the enact
men of a compulsory primary election
law and never viii be as long as one
administration is allowed to name its
successor as has been done and !:
sought to be done by the one just go
| ing out of Office"
Mr.. Hearne has the courage of hii
convictions and is not afraid to de
clare them. His campaign is on highl.
moral lines, full of vigor and in oppo
sition to ring rule and ring methods
If his party has the strength ant
courage to purge itself of it's politica
impurities ii win nominate a man VIII,
is clean and free from, the influence o

In a short time the city election
will be he'd, and as vet the republican
party has not made much effort TO
place a strong ticket in the field. For
several years the city election has
gone by the board leaving the demo
cratic party in full control of the city
government Why the republican
party permits such an occurrence is
somewhat a mystery when it is posi-
BILE to elect a mayor and several eoun-
cilmen. There is no question but
what the county ticket would be
materially helped if the republican
party was in power in this city The
officers here have great field in
which TO secure voters for the demo
cratic ticket at the fall election, and
it does look like ii is high time some
thing should be done to relieve the
present situation. Nominate a strong
ticket and help TO elect il.

One Of the most important Offices

MORE SHIPMENTS
FROM SILVER bow

Silver Bow and all that section
of country, including Bellehelen,
Clifford and Stone Cabin, from this
, time forward will be heard from.
That country is located in Nye
county, but since the completion Of
the Mccormack air line wagon and
automobile road, freight is going
from here every day, and ore is COM
ing in also.
Yesterday Fred Gelason brought in
shipment which will be sampled at
one of the local samplers, which
came from the Silver Bell ground at
Silver Bow, and If assays are to be
relied on the ore will run better than
$500 ton in gold.
Silver Bow is wrongly named.
1t was born when the excitement at
Manhattan broke out, and the in
vestors and prospectovs were attract
ed to that and surrounding camps.
This has retarded the development of
what promises to turn out to be a
splendid camp. Wingfield and Nix
on are the owners of large acre
age at Silver Bow, and the work Of
keeping up the assessment work is
not being overlooked. Blazier
brothers are driveing a tunnel on a
wide body of good shipping ore.
The big proposition in this section
is the Broken Hills, at Clifford, where
regular shipments are now being
sent out to Millers. Goldfield Tri.

MANY MINERS AND
PROSECUTORS NAY
LOSE THEIR L NDS

Led to believe that the result of
the suit brought by ''Buch" ingalls,
of Olinghouse, against the Southern
Pacific company, to establish the title.
to his mining properties would be a
precedent in all future cases, huns
dreds of mine owners and prospec-
tors, who have been standing quietly
by for years waiting for the outcome
of the trial, are in danger of losing
their properties.
Colonel -Wingfeld Scott Proskey, a
mine owner of Olinghouse, White
Horse, Tallapoosa and Ramsey, has
made public what appears to be a
carefully laid plan of the railroad
company to secure complete title to
thousands of acres OF valuable min
eral-bearing land, situated in the
state between Winnemucca and the
California boundary.
An act of congress, approved July
l, 1862, cedes to the Central Pacific
company every alternate section of
public land designated by odd num-
bers to the amount of ten alternate
sections per mile on each side of
said railroad on the line hereof and
within the limits of every twenty
miles on each side Of said road not
sold, reserved or otherwise disposed
of by the United States, and to which
a presumption or homestead claim
may not have attached at the time
the line of said road is definitely
fixed"
By January 8, 1909, the statute OF
limitations will have prevailed, and
Tonopah daily bonanza. [volume] (Tonopah, Nev.) 1906-1929, 1908-10-25

every particle of land on the line of
the railroad, as mentioned in the
quotation, will pass to the company
unless suit for establishment of title
is brought individually by every mine
owner, company and prospector. The
decision in the ingalls, case will be
of no value as a precedent.
1t is stated as a fact that the
Southern Pacific has been aware Of
this, and is only waiting for January
8, to lay claim to the territory, at the
same time holding out the ingalls,
bait to the hitherto unsuspecting
miners.
Colonel Proskey has gone to Wash
ington to confer with government
officials in regard to the matter.
Land Commissioner bennett says he
will place every available land officer
in the field to help the mine owners
and prospectors fight their rights.
