TO ASK SUNDAY TRAIN AND
MORE TELEGRAPH SERVICE
BUSINESS MEN WILL PUT IN PETITION TO N. N.

In view of the increasing activity
in all lines of trade, business men
generally and especially brokers are
giving considerable time to the
thought and discussion of making a
concerted effort looking to the bet
terment of the telegraphic service
into the district, as we'll as securing a
Sunday mail service. Judging from
what can be learned, a petition hav-
ing this improvement as its aim will
be presented to General Manager
Cannon of the Nevada Northern In
the near future by the business men
of the district.
1t is pointed out that Mr.. Cannon
is deserving of credit for the service
afforded the district in the past, but
business men say that conditions
have become such as to warrant
their urging him to make further i'm
provements. 1t is explained that in
view of the present increasing vol

from participation in the allotment
of stock of Ely Centennial which had
been promised the brokers of the
district.
The brokerage firm cut out of the
running came back yesterday with
announcement that it had acted pre-
Inaturely, it having been under the
impression that it was case in which
it could cut and run for the business
in Ely Centennial buying. In con-
clusion it endorsed the ground and
declared that 1t was because the E.
w. Hulse Co. was floating the enter
prise that 1t was not allowed partfcf-
patton in the stock distribution. The
matter as a whole made for much
talk yesterday and last night, the
sum total Of which was criticism OF
the seeming effort to put trouble in
the way Of a new enterprise, the
value Of the property of which is not
questioned.
"In response to much solicitation
for allotment Of block of Ely Gem
tennial stock locally" said Mr.. Grif-
fiths regarding the matter, before his
departure for Salt Lake yesterday on
a brief business mission, 1--WE chang
ed our original plans and instead of
floating all the stock on the eastern
curbs, we decided to give each of
the local brokerage houses the show
they asked for. Last week advised
them personally that they should
have $4,000 shares each for their
customers. At the same time / told
them that desired no publicity re-.
garding this until should advise
them, there having been certain east
ern arrangements to close pending
the fixing of a date for the sale of
stock. All Of them with exception Of

quest and made good their word.
When the firm in question broke into
print with its premature announce
ment, which could only construe as
an effort to grab business, there re-
mained but one thing that could do
in order to maintain my reputation
with the other firms for fairness, and
that was to promptly cancel the al
lottment promised the people who
had taken unfair advantage of their
competitors, and incidentally of
me. That's the entire situation;
all there is to it."
1--WE are not involved in the mat
ter any more than are the other
brokerage houses promised allott-
ments of the stock and requested to
refrain from announcement until Mr..
Griffiths gave the word" was the
statement of the e. w. Hulse Co. last
night. 1.-THE fact that the names of
members and employees of the firm
appear in the papers Incorporating
the Ely Centennial represents moth
ing more than an accommodation to
Mr.. Griffiths. Any other brokerage
office in the district or any other con-
Germ would have been glad to have
extended the same aid. 1t happened
that a portion of the purchase deal
for Ely Centennial was conducted in
our Office by Mr.. Griffiths, it being a
convenient place of meeting. He was
anxious after getting the ground to
make organization and get to work
on the property with the least pos
sible delay In consequence he fol-
lowed a customary course in the
making of first organization by call
ing on people who were immediate
ly at hand and whom he knew he
could reach at any time to sign the
preliminary organization papers
Since then believe he has replaced
practically all of these with his per,
mament directors and officers. And
that is all there is to our participa'
tion in the Ely Centennial, further
than that we have an allotment o.
the stock and are glad of it, as are
also a good many customers who
have asked us to put them dowr

agreement will be reached, for the
chief consideration of the council as
well as the great majority Of the peo-
pie of the district is to get the road
in. Too much Importance cannot be
attached to it's coming, for it will

end and the Pacific at the other;

just as quickly as possible.
Mr.. Rasor stated last night that
San Francisco is doing much talk
about the new road and the traffic ar
rangements which have been an
nounced with the Western Pacific
and the Santa Fe. He left General
Manager John Ryan and Mr.. Alber-
ger in conference with F. M. Smith,

Angeles within few weeks.

;()NFERS
Hears Labor Leaders and
Then Calls in Advisers
Message Being Framed

WASHINGTON, Nov. 29.-Presi-
dent Taft today commenced debating
his annual message to congress. He
expects to complete the work and
have it in the hands of the public
printer by the middle of the week.
Recommendations looking toward
the improvement of the condition OF
laboring men which it is desired that
the president incorporate in his an
nual message, were urged upon the
president today by labor leaders
headed by Samuel Gompers, presi-
dent of the American Federation OF
Labor.
To the president, Gompers submit
ted number of matters, chief among
which was that concerning the issu-
ance OF injunctions by federal judges,
particularly as they apply to personal
liberty and their use in the settlement
OF disputes between employer and
employe.
Exemption of labor organizations
from certain provisions of the Sher-
man Antitrust Act was discussed
and it became known that the presi-
dent has practically decided that his
message to congress will make no
detailed recommendation regarding
the Sherman Act Amendments to
the eigh-hour law, so as to extend its
provisions to contractors and sub
contractors on government work, and
requiring an appropriation to pay in
spectors for duty in enforcing the
child labor law i'll the district of Co
lumbia, were other subjects taken up
in the course of the conference,
Later in the day amendments pro
posed to President Taft in the Inter
state Commerce act, were discussed
in conference which he called with
General Wickersham, Senator Cum
Minis of Iowa, and Senator Elkins.

c. M. Rasor, chief engineer of the
Tonopah and Tidewater and head of
the survey for the Ely-Goldfield road,
returned here last night from San
Francisco, to be present at the meet
ing of the city council tomorrow
night, when final action is to be
taken on the franchise for the right
of-way through the city
1t is possible that there will be
some changes in the ordinance as
originally drawn at the meeting of
the board on last Wednesday night.
The ordinance prescribes that the
line shall run through Clark street,
the thoroughfare on which the tracks
of the Nevada Northern are laid. This
was the idea of Mr.. Alberger and
Chief Engineer Rasor, their argu-
ment being that it wauld be better
from the standpoints of safety and
public convenience to confine the
tracks to one street. The council
apparently shared this belief, for
no objections were offered the fran
chise.
Since the meeting, however, it is
understood that some property-own-
ers have raised objections which
are to be heard by the council to-
morrow night. No doubt some

BODY to Salt Lake City

A coroner's inquest will be held at
10 o'clock this morning at Veteran
to inquire into the death of James
Guthrie, the Giroux boarding house
cook, who expired yesterday morning
about A O'Clock from the effects, OF
inhaling smoke during the fire of last
Thursday night.
Guthrie occupied a room on the
second floor of the boarding house
and did not awaken from his slum-
bers until avenues of escape, except
the windows, was cut off. In des-
peration, he climbed out a window
and hung to the ledge until a ladder
was raised. However, he had in
haled considerable smoke and was
practically unconscious when he
reached the ground. He was taken
to the Kimberley hospital, where he
died.
Guthrie was 81 years old and is
survived by two daughters, who are
teachers in the public schools of Salt
Lake City. His body will be taken
to Salt Lake City for burial.

key note, the best thought of the
day is not that development shall be
by natural agencies, but that wise
utilization shall be secured through
private enterprise under national
supervision and control. Therefore,
If material progress is to be made in
securing the best use of our remain
ing public lands, congress must be
called upon to enact remedial legis-
lation.
Classification of Public Lands-In
order that intelligent administration
shall be applied in the disposition of
the public lands, it is essential that
they be classified into various clear
ly defined divisions according to their
principal value or use. They have
generally been CLASSIFIED in legisla-
tion as agricultural, mineral, desert,
timber, and coal lands, and it is only
in recent years that the interior de-
partment, through the geological
survey, has undertaken to make this
classification in the field in the aid
of the administration of these public
land statutes, and then only through
the general authority given in the
Organization of this bureau. Specific
legislative autho rity should be given
the department to classify and seq
regate our public lands into well
defined divisions according to their
greatest apparent use, with the con-
tinuing power of reclassification to
meet changing conditions and the
increased knowledge of their charac-
ter which may necessitate the trans
fer of lands from time to time from
the one class to the other. Full legal
effect should be given such classifica
tion when made so as to prevent en-
teries, under laws applicable to one
class of land belonging to another
class, except after application for
and a review of the classification; in
other words, they should be enter
able only as coal lands and in case it
be shown that they are improperly
classified as coal lands and are, in
be enterable only as agricultural
lands. This, to my mind, is the only
way the government can scientifical-
ly and effectively proceed to conserve
the natural resources of the public
domain. To leave to the self interest
of applicants the option to claim
particular tract of land as more
valuable for mineral, agriculture,
timber, phosphate, oil, or gas, or for
power sites, is to invite confusion,
fraud, and contention, and this has
been the source of a major portion
of the difficulties of the interior de-
partment in administering the
public domain.
1t may seem at the outset that this
would be radical departure, to the
extent of suspending the disposition
of public lands pending their classi-
fication, but as matter of fact, a
large portion of the undisposed of
public lands has already been classi-
fed by the department, but such
classification has not the authorita-
tive basis or effect to accomplish the
result above outlined.
As to minerals, other than those
