Few Ride Asrtde In Ensland-Most
Popular Riding Costume.
So far as the fashionable Midland
Hunts are concerned riding astride
has not yet been attempted. except
IN the case Of children. In the pro-
vinces. however, the custom is I'M
doubtedly making Roadway, and 1t is
Just possible that in another ten years
or so it may be the regular thing.
On the other hand, there lie in many
quarters strong feeling against the
innovation, and it is impossible to say
what the future has in store.
1t may be that at least some OF the
girls of the present day who are
taught to ride astride first may reach
womanhood with a Partially for this
method and change of feeling be
thus gradually brought about. The
older generation of hunting folk are
at present-so far as can be Judged
almost entirely opposed to the change.
and many parents who have approved
of their children riding astride during
childhood have insisted upon the side
saddle when the age of 16 or II has
been reached and hair has been put
up"
Meanwhile the safety skirt Of the
present day is far more sporting and
far heater costume than the long and
dangerous habit which was worn a
generation ago and which had to be
carried in both hands when the wear.

skirts, or aprons are wonderfully
clever too, so that one seldom hears
women being hung up" when they
fall.

Too Previous.

A Richmond woman has in her EN-.
ploy a little darkey. Milf Cole. One
day Milf became confidential and told
her mistress he was "goin' to the
cimitery next Sunday
"But, Milf, that's long walk. You
know it is more than FIVE miles"
"Oh. missus. l amt goin' to walk.
Use goin' to ride
"How's that. Miff?"
Use goin' in a kerridge t my un.
cles funeral"
All day Saturday Milf could talk OF
nothing but the approaching affair
Sunday his mistress excused him, and
she expected that on Monday she
would be RECALLED with full account
of the funeral. But Milf turned up
with most melancholy face. In an
swer to her inquiry he said:
Il didn't go, missus. He amt dead
yit."

THREE PROSPECTIVE SENATORS

AT their coming legislative session,
New York, Indiana and Nebraska viii
each elect a United States senator. Ii
is not beyond the range of human pos
sibilities that Roosevelt, Kern and
Bryan may be selected to I'LL the vacan-
cies, as in New York the legislature is
Republican, while those of Indiana ami
Nebraska are Democratic.
AS a rule, whenever a man ~retires
from the presidential chair he is
through with public life. Mr.. Roose-
welt, however, is still a young and
active man, and is not the sort OF per-
son to go into voluntary retirement.
1t has been many years since the En-
pire state has been represented in the
senate my a man above mediocre abiI
ity, and should the president be the
choice of the coming legislature, he
no doubt would soon become the leader
of his party in our ''house of lords
Messrs. Bryan and Kern being the
unquestioned leaders of their party IN
the nation and their respective states,
it would seem that they might logically
be chosen to wear the toga.

DEATH or JUDGE CORNISH

The death OF Judge William -. Cor
nish, at Chicago, last week, is of inter
est to the people of Nevada owing tt
the fact that he was vice president OF
the Hartman lines.
For many years prior to 1889 Judge
Cornish had been a practicing attorney
in st. Paul, when the state Legislature
created an additional judgeship for
that county, and he was appointed e
the position. In 1885, be was the can
didate of his party for reelection, but
was detected by John w. willis, the
Democratic nominee.
About this time the United States
circuit court of appeals was created
and w. H. Sanborn, of st. Paul was
made one of the judges for that cir
cult. When the Union and Central
Pacific roads went through the courts,
along in 1896, Judge Sanborn appoint
ed Mr.. Cornish a master in chancery,
and he had full charge of the sale OF
these valuable properties.
E. Ii. Hartman was quick to recog-
nize Judge Cornish IS great legal abil-
tiles, and upon the reorganization OF
the system appointed him second vice
president of his lines, with complete
jurisdiction over the company's lands,
a position for which he was em~inently
fitted.
Judge Cornish was a very digniied
and reserved gentleman, who was much
esteemed by all who knew him best,
by whom his sudden and untimely
death will be much regretted.

THE AMERICAN
MINING CONGRESS

The official call for the eleventh
annual session of the American Min
ing congress when well be held at
Pitsburg, Pa, next month, appears on
the first page of this issue of the Silver
State News.
1t is anticipated that the coming ses-
sion may be made the most important
in the history of the association. Action
viii be taken looking to the facilitating
of the passage of the bill providing for
the establishment of a federal bureau
of mines, which has already passed the
house OF representatives and is now
upon the calendar of the senate for 4
third reading.
Since its organization the mining
congress has beer dominated by the
coal-mining interests of the east and
middle west, and this influence is
chiefly responsible for all federal leg
~islation thus far secured.
1t is therefore imperative that the
coast precious-metal interests shall
have a full representation in the
meeting next month, for at least two
reasons. First, there is a movement IN
foot to secure the next meeting of
the congress for some Rocky Mountail
state, and second, the precious-metal
mining industry may be given a pub
licity that will teach the public 70
look upon it as a legitimate business
enterprise instead of as simply q
gamble, which seems to be the present
general impression.

END OF TOBACCO TRUST IN s1GHg

That "the mills of the gods grind
slowly but surely" is again brought
to mind by a decision handed down Sat
urday in the United States Circuit couss
in New York, declaring the American
Tobacco company to be a trust and an
illegal combination in restraint OF
trade.
The government, many months ago,
applied for an injunction dissolving the
corporation, and also petitioned the
court for the appointment of a receiver
to winl up the affairs of the concern.
The latter request, however, was deniel'
the court holding that such action was
unnecessary, evidently presuming that
the corporation could best manage its
own dissolution.
While the injunctions have been

QUICK ACTION.

From time Immemorial it has been
the rule that the country mas exper.
fenced a business depression for some
months prior to a presidential election,
and this year was no exception to that
rule. In previous years, however,
business did not to recupeE-
ate until after the Inauguration in the
following spring, but fortunately we
are now witnessing the reverse.
The result of the election one week
ago had not been fairly announced be-
fore the cheering news was heard from
all great manufacturing centers OF the
country that factories were resuming
operations and that men by the
thousands, long idle, were being put
back to work. This is due entirely to
the fact hat Mr.. Ta1t's election is a
guarantee to manufacturers that there
will be no hostile tariff legislation, and
that they may go ahead and work up
large stocks with the assurance that
no radical reduction in the tariff on
their particular product will work a
hardship ON them.
With the woollen factories of he
East running full time and ~full-handei,
it should not be a great while before
Nevada will feel the general good sime3
by a substantial appreciation in the
price OF wool.

Observance Of the Law

"There are no technicalities of tho
law governing the traffic whereby the
holder of a license can avoid a strict
compliance with its requirements. The
limited number of licenses issued ais
encourages the strict observance Of the
law, as a bar privilege is considered
valuable because of the fact that when
the maximum number allotted TO a com

Merchant Prince Renouncss Bryan

Franklin McVeagh, mllllOnalre
grocer and known the country over
as the scholar merchant of Chica-
CO." friend of Grover Cleveland
and leader In civic reforms, has be-
come a republican and will vote for
William Fl. Taft, November 8. In
departing from the democratic
ranks, Mr.. McVeagh announces
that he is actuated by the fact that
his interest is in progressive poll
tics and in party backing which
makes them practicable"
Further defining his position,
the merchant prince compared the
two candidates for the presidency
and says he is for Taft because
Taft will carry forward what
Roosevelt has begun and will be
another epoch-making president. !"
AS to Bryan, he remarks that the
Nebraskan is liable an honest"
but lacks political judgement and
common sense and would be ex-
tremely uncertain and unsafe. -
Long before the national con-
ventions were held, when it became
evident that the nomination of
Taft and Bryan as rivals for the
White House was foregone con-
clusion, the intimate friends of
Mr.. MacVeagh gathered from his
comments on the political situation
that his independence in politics
would lead him to support the re-
publican party in the present cam
paign.
The fact was not generally known,
however, until Monday, when poll
tical circles begun to hum with the
news that Mr.. MacVeagh, who in
1894, had been nominated by the
democrats of Illinois for the United
States senate, had voted the repub-:
lican ballot at the, primaries Aug
ust 8. Mr.. MacVeagh now is at
his country home in Dublin, N. H.,
and in response to an inquiry ask
ing whether the reports were true,
sent a telegram that night substan-
tiating the rumors, defining his po-
sition and declaring the reasons
that had led him into the republi-
can ranks.
For years Mr.. MacVeagh has
been prominent in public affairs
and has been recognized as one of
the most influential citizens of Chi
cago. In the presidential campaign
of 1884 Mr.. Mac Veagh became ac-
tive in the independent party move
ment, leading the executive COM
mittee that flooded Illinois with
campaign literature for Grover
Cleveland. Ever since that he has
been considered one of Chicago's
prominent democrats, although he
has not played in the active game
of notifies.
