MISSING CHILD
Is FOUND DEAD

RENO, New. April 2O.-Nestlins
at the base of the fiagpole at the sum-
init of snow-capped Mount Davidson,
seven miles from Virginia City, the
body of Donald Peckham, the tive-
year-old son of Mr.. and Mrs. James
Peckham OF Reno. was found by a
searching party early this morning.
The little tot had been missing from
the home Of his grandmother for four
days and nights. and during all the
time crowds from Reno and Virginia
City were in the hills looking for the
child.
It was at first supposed the boz
had been kidnapped, but his little
tracks leading up the mountain side
through the snow were found late
last night. and this morning the
weary searching party came across
the body. The baby had been dead
apparently but a few hours. Ex-
haustion and exposure were the
causes.

MARK B. KERR'S
STRAIGHT TALK.
SAYS ADVERTISE YOUR RE.
SOURCES AND BACK YOUR
NEWSPAPER.

Mark B. Kerr hits the nail squarely
on the head in speech at Bodie last
week at the Mona Lake Board OF
Trade. He addressed the meeting,
endorsing its aims and objects in a
most enthusiastic manner. Among
his remarks pertinent to the objects
of the organization, Mr.. Kerr said
that we had here In Mono county
some of the greatest mines to be
found anywhere. Beautiful scenery,
stock-raising. ranching and lumber,
and that the outlook for this section
as the greatest and the most extern
sive basin in the State was very
bright All that is needed here To
bring in outside capital and investors
was to properly advertise the re.
sources of this section and d railroad
to bring in the people. Mr. Kerr said
1t is up to US to get the railroad In
and this will be done at the earliest
moment. But, he said, it is up to
this board of trade to see that the
outside public is informed as to what
we have. This can be done by back
ing up your newspaper and getting
out literature setting forth our
claims.

NOW A PRINCESS

PARIS, April 20.-The Cri de
Paris. which processes to chronicle
the doings of the fashionable set Of
Paris. insists in its issue Of today
that the marriage of Nine. Anna
Gould. foremrly the wife of Count
Boni Castellane, and Prince de Sagan
has already taken place. The paper
announced some time ago that this
marriage had been celebrated secret-
ly in Germany. Today it says:
I'VE are now in q position to COM
plete our information. This marri-
age was celebrated secretly in a little
town on our eastern frontier. When
in New York, Nine. Gould informed
her family that her wedding already
was an accomplished fact and this is
why the members OF her family 50
quickly assented. We would add thai
for certain legal reasons which deli
cacy prevents us from divulging, this
marriage can be broken. This pos
sibly greatly consoles the families
which have been so crushed by the
marriage, but We hope that they VIII
not. by any rude process. trouble the
true happiness of the young couple,
who, during their soiourn in New
York, were so much together"
Continuing, the paper adds that
MIME. Gould has resolved irrevocably
to break with the past. She is sell
ing out her celebrated wine cellar, n
merchant of Bordeaux having already
$4,000 worth Of her

Carson City daily appeal. [volume] (Carson City, Nev.) 1907-1930, 1908-11-06

Merchants in every town in Nevada
should render all possible assistance
to the merchants of Reno in the eff
fort to gain terminal railroad rates
for the State of Nevada. The cause
is just in principle and f the issue
succeeds before the Interstate Com
merce Commission, will mean much
for the material prosperity if the en-
tire State.
Reno cannot become the Denver
of Nevada in any serious ence so
long as her merchants are compelled
to pay freight to Sacramento and
return over the Sierras on all mer-
chandise. The people of the interior
towns; the consumers who buy their
supplies from the merchants in the
interior towns are the mes on whom
this absurd freight burden ultimately
falls. The people all over Nevada
should lend a hand in this fight.
The merchants of San Francisco
have gone into the fight on the side
OF. the railroad. These Coast mer-
chants admit that Nevada is unjustly
Disseminated against by the railroad.
They claim however that they will
keep more trande with Nevada by as
sisting the fight for the perpetuation
OF the injustice.
What does Nevada say?. What does
the Nevada u say? What do
the Nevada interior merchants say?
The mere cutting out OF excessive
and unfair freight rates is not the
sole benefit that will be derived from
the success of this Reno movement.
With a victory for Reno, no doubt
there are wholesale houses in San
Francisco and Sacramento that would
open houses in Reno to hold their
present trade with the Southern min
ing country. No doubt there would
be wholesale jobbing firms from 9TH
er towns that would locate in Reno.
1t is certain t hat present Reno COM
mercial houses would vastly increase
their stocks and expand t heir opera
tons. This would mean that Reno
would become ar inter-mountain me-
%tropolis. This in turn would mean
cheaper living for every family and
for every working man in the State.
But that is not all, Reno would be-
products of Nevada ranchers.
The fight for terminal rates in Ne
vada is of importanc to everyone in

TUBERCULOSIS STUDY TO Bt RESUMED AT ROME
The President Warmly Comments the Congress Just Before Adjournment

Washington. Oct. 3.-"I feel that no gathering could take place fraught with more hope for the welfare of the people at large than this assembly," was President RoOsevelts parting greeting to the delegates of the sixth triennial International Congress on Tuberculosis. which finally adjourned today to meet in Rome, Italy. in 1911
 The president had not been eX- pected to attend the congress and his appearance was greeted with tre- mendous applause. The president thanked the delegates on behalf of the nation for what they had done and were doing to stamp out the great white plague.
 You have come here" said Pres ident Roosevelt, ito combat with. on the whole, the most terrible scourge of all diseases in the world. The chance to control the disease lies in the work of just such men as those who are assembled here"
 The president declared that medical scientists have shown just as much heroism in the fight against tubeT- culoSis as ever was shown by a sol dier on the field of battle He de- clared that in no other manifesto tion of human activity have results been quite so far reaching as in the ability to grapple with this disease.
 Just before the congress was brought to a close a number of i'm portant resolutions were adopted, the most notable of which places the con gress on record in favor of recogniz- ing the possibility of infection of hu man beings by bovine tuberculosis. The resolution declares that proven tive measures should be continued against bovine tuberculosis.
 The congress also indorsed legisla- tion for the regulation of factories and workshops, the abolition of pre- mature and injurious labor of women and children and the securing of san itary dwellings to increase the resist ing power of the community to tu- berculosis and other diseases; the establishment of play grounds as factor in the prevention of tubercu- lOsiS

STRAIGHT TO
 LAST COURT
The $. P. Lumber Rate
 Gases Are Sent
Circuit Court Unable to Agree Upon So MOmen- tOus a Decision.

San Francisco, Oct. 3.-FOr the first time since the passage of the Hep burn rate bill, the supreme court of the United States will be given an opportunity to pass upon all the practical questions involved in the law in it's amended form as passed by the fifty-ninth congress.
 The three judges of the federal cir cult court of appeals, being unable to agree upon a decision upon the application for an injunction in the case brought by the two Hartman railroads, embodying all the vital rights and powers of the interstate commerce commission, including the matter of court review, today directed that the case be certified to the su- preme court. Relying upon the stat ute which capacities proceedings of this character, the attorneys in the case expect that a final decision will be rendered within sixty days.
 In the amended bill. the attorneys representing the railroads based their chief claim to relief at the court s hands upon the allegation that the rate fixed by the commission was confiscatory and presented evidence and argument to support that con tention. The demurrer of the gov ernment, covering practically the same ground as the first instance was followed by a day of argument on this altered phase and it was in these premises that three judges of the circuit court were unable to agree.

Lincoln, Oct 3.-There was much amusement at Fairview on the receipt Of the Omaha papers today. In yes terday's Omaha Bee published by Vic tor Rosewater. a member of the re- publican executive committee and head of the republican publicity bu- reau, there was an editorial criticising in vigorous language an extract from supposed speech of MT Bryan's on the tariff question. The words com plained of in the editorial were: Tn all tariff legislation the true principle is best maintained by the imposition of such duties as will equal the diff ference between the cost of production al home and abroad, together with a reasonable profit to American indus tries"
 In regard to this the Bee said edi- toriaily: The declaration means simply nothing An attempt to legis- late along that line would simply open the Way to interminable wrangling as to what constitutes a reasonable prof it, for hair-splittinS on wages in one industry, and the price of raw ma terial in another. rebates and draw backs in a third and so on through a list of thousands of articles that are now on the tariff lists"
