PROMOTION
MATTERS

The committee appointed to TAX
subscriptions for the new building
! and loan association has been a,
work TWO days now and reports fine
success.
This committee is OF the Promotion
Association and the work of tie
members OF which A. M. Ardery, and
not Mr.. Cohn as stated yesterday, is
chairman, is in line with the fine
work of the Promotion Association
since ii started.
Carson City has never before had
u more up-to-date and alive organic
alton than is this.
The city is being improved with
cement sidewalks, the work of the
Promotion Association, backed by the
city trustees. General improvement
of homes and of vacant blocks has
taken place and there is an air OF
prosperity in Carson City that bellies
the derisive epithets thrown at it by
other cities Of the state who lack
the beauties of the capital city and
try 10 make up for them by a dis
ness for everyone.
The Promotion Association propoS-
es to keep up the good work and to
see that Carson City takes first rank
in Nevada as a home city and a city
of homes. New buildings have been
projected and other improvements
are to be made that will soon make
this one of the finest clIies on the
coast.
From one end Of Carson street to
the other cement work is going on.
This is a, distance OF nearly mile
and while much OF it is already paw
ed there is much to be done yet and
is being done.
The Association tried to get a bill
through the last legislature to make
improvements about - capitol
building, but the bill died in COM
mittee of the whole and nothing came
of it, The capitol therefore will
stand without much improvement;
until the next session.
The effect of al i these improve
ments has been fine on business
generally. business men report
good trade and the weather having
settled, there is every prospect OF
good and prosperous summer season
Carson City is all right and the citi-
Zens are not complaining of hard
times, with all the work going on
here and to come. There is yet about
half a million of state money to be
expended in this county during the
next two years and the county will
spend $4,000 on road building and
internal improvements of perman
ent nature.
There is nothing the matter with
Carson City, nothing whatever.

U. S. JUDGE OF MAUI
IS ASKED TO RESIGN

Honolulu. Jan. 14.-United States
Attorney General Charles A. Bonaparte
has asked Circuit Judge A. N. Kepoi-
kai of Maui for his resignation, after
investigation into the charges flied
against the jurist by Governor Frear
of Hawaii. These were to the effect
that Kepoikai had borrowed $1,000
from the funds belonging to a ward
of the court, giving in exchange his
own note, unsecured, which, at the
time the charges We're made, was
overdue and unpaid. The ward in
question was a Japanese minor whose
father had died, leaving an estate of
$500. Judge Kepoikai appointed
guardian, who converted the entire
estate into cash and, it is alleged, the
judge then borrowed the $1,000. Since
the charges were preferred he has re-
paid the amount, with interest at the
legal rate.

Grain and Provisions.

Chicago, Jan. 1.-THE wheat mar
ket was a dull and narrow affair the
greater part of the day, but livened
up during the final half hour as a
result of cover support by bull lead
ers. This demand carried prices up
1ac to 1h@lAc from the low point Of
the day, the May delivery showing
the greatest gain. Pit traders finally
were bearishly inclined, but were
afraid to venture far from shore, and
consequently only a moderate de-
mand by the bull leaders was suffi-
Gent to maintain prices during the
first half hour of the session. The
market closed strong at almost the
top, final quotations on May being at
$O6& and on July, 97Ac.
Poor demand for the cash grain
caused moderate weakness in the oats
market. The price of the cash grain
was off NC to &c. The close was
unchanged to A@Ac lower. with May
at 51h451Sc and July at 46h046Ac.
Provisions were firm throughout the
entire day. At the close prices were
unchanged to l71ac higher.

ONLY TWO QUALIFY
FOR JURY
MORE THAN HALF OF VENlRE IN
CALHOUN CASE HAS BEEN
EXHAUSTED.

San Francisco, Jan. 1.-two men,
still subject to peremptory challenge,
have run the gauntlet of inquisiton
in the trial of Patrick Calhoun,
charged with bribery, and the scru-
pies of opposing attorneys have dis
qualified more than half of the 48 men
who constituted the first panel. For
the present there is no consideration
given to the Introduction Of testimony,
the energies of the prosecution and
defense being directed toward the
selection of men who are believed to
be free from prejudice and bias. When
court convened today, with the trial
entering upon its third day, one of
the talesmen, subsequently accepted,
subject to the exercise of peremptory
challenges, reported to the presiding
judge an alleged attempt to ascertain
his attitude toward the bribery-graft
prosecution. Although the matter will
probably not be made the subject of
further consideration, it created, for
the moment, a profound sensation in
the court room.

BOND is REJECTED
BY COMMISSIONERS
Special to The Daily Muscular.

Special to The Daily Muscular.
Wallace, Jan. 14.-That wealthy min
ing men of the Occur d'Alenes con-
tribute little to the taxes of the county
in which they live, is evidenced by the
fact that Harry l.. Day and Eugene
Day of Wallace, part owners of the
Hercules mine, appear on the tax
rolls for only $1,000 each.
This fact was developed when Sher-
iff-elect Jack Moffatt presented a
bond signed by the mining men as his
surety when he appeared before the
county commissioners to take his oath
of office. The commissioners We're
forced to reject the bond owing to
the state law. which provided that
persons signing the bond for county
officials must appear on the tax rolls
for amounts equal to the amount for
which they are surety.
On this account, the new sheriff
did not take office until today, al
though the term of Sheriff Bailey, his
predecessor, expired yesterday. All
OF the other county officers, elected
last fall, took office Monday, having
presented bonds guaranteed by east
ern bonding companies.

Discount Rate Raised.

London. Jan. 1.-THE rate of dis
count Of the Bank of England was
raised today from 21a per cent to 3
per cent. This Is the first change since
May 2S of last year.
The increase in the rate was gener-
ally anticipated and was due to the
small gold reserve which last week
stood below s100oOO,OoO, being further
depleted today by 100000 withdraw
ais to ship to South Africa.
For many months the bank has
been unable to obtain the weekly sup
ply arriving from the mines,
as France has been persistent buyer
OF the metal, presumably in prepara-
ton for the new Russian loan. With
the banks reserve ut such low ebb.
the right high rate is necessary to
attract gold imports as well as check
continual demands.

sent to Washington instead of the

Frank II. Hitchcock, chairman of the

not McHargs first visit to Oregon.
Last fall he spent some time en-

element within the republican party
That the chamberlain forces
will map out a line of campaign be-
tween now and next Tuesday, when
the first ballot in the senatorial con-
test Is to be taken, is certain. While
1t Is generally believed that Fulton
Is the man the "antis' want returned
to the senate, 1t is understood that IL
a winning fight cannot be made with
Fulton as the candidate, some other
name Will be put forward.
The Chamberlain forces show no
signs of weakening. The speaker of
the house, G. n. Macarthur, a repub-
lican, and known to be friend of Full
ton in most things, has not been won
over to the side Of the "antis," and,
furthermore, has taken no part in the
fight since the Legislature convened.
