Carson City daily appeal. [volume] (Carson City, Nev.) 1907-1930, 1909-09-28

A FEW days before Roosevelt ent M If Office he caused his Sec
Of the Interior o withdraw from entry about a million acres of
public land situated at the headwaters of the Missouri river in Mon
tana. along the course II which are many valuable power sites. A few
days after Secretary of the Interior Balinger assumed N duties Of his
Office. without consulting President Taft. he restored said lands. except
q few acres, to public entry, upon the ground that HI sal had been
withdrawn without authority of law. A few days after the restoration OF
said lands to pubic entry President Tai caused Mr. falinger to again
withdraw said lands from entry.
During the few days that said lands we're open to entry nc power
sites we're located and 10 appica tons made for land entry, although
two or three former entries we're corrected affecting only a few acres. Mr.
Balinger points with pride to that fact
How could the grea power trust o in process of formation, and
10 well described by Chief Forester Pnchot. dare t o jump right in and
locate these power sites and lands. Immediately after the sam were
thrown open? Everybody would have said 1t is a job and compact be
tween Bannger AM. the trust" So, time must elapse before wholesale
entries could he made to avoid suspicion of an agreement between the
Secretary of the Interior, and the controlling spirit oft the trust. There
was 10 great danger of locations being made by men of small means, be-
able for the trust to have men of small means make many locations
first. In act all locations were made by men of small means. and for
and IN behalf of the trust, which compact would be kept secret 1t
will thus be readily eel that President Taft performed a great service
the country in promptly ordering Mr.. Eauinger to again withdraw
said lands from entry. 1t is further discernble that Mr. Taft believes
himself able to protect himself and the country rm any Vaccinations of
his own secretary. because he retains him in office.
lie restored said mHion acres OF land and power sites 70 entry be
cause the same had bee withdrawn without authority of law. At the
order Of his chief, President Taft, he again withdrew said lands and
power sites from location and entry and the authority of law a all times
remained the same.
The conclusion seem o be irresistible that he does o hand in
his resignation because the power rust demands and requires his var
able services to them.
August, after the attack made in the Congress by Ex-Governor George
G. Pardee, of California. upon Mr. Balnger, and a thorough expana-
ton Of the foregoing statement of facts, the belief was quite general
in the Congress that Secretary Balhnger must per force resign.

Wants New River Locked.

Mr.. James G. Litz, of Pocahontas,
who has been appointed to the National
Rivers and Harbor Congress, has pre-
pared bill which he will present to
that body at its meeting in Washing
ton, d. c., this week, and endeavor to
have the national Congress act upon it
during its present session.
Mr.. Litz proposes having New River
locked as far as Glen Lynn, Va, which
is on the State line of the two virginias,
and at point where the Norfolk and
Western and Virginian railways inter
sect, thus affording water traffic to q
vast section of Southern West Virginia
and Southwest Virginia.
Mr.. Litz has received much encour-
agement, and believes that if he does
not get his bill acted upon at this meet
ing of Congress that it will be at an
early day taken up by the national gov
ernment.

Killing in Thompson Valley.

Upper Thompson Valley, in this coun-
ty, was the scene on last Saturday of a
killing which has greatly stirred che
citizens of that usually quiet and peace
full neighborhood. 1t seems that Wal
ter Simpson and Charles Jones, between
whom bad blood had existed for more
than a year, met a shooting match
about one-half mile up the Valley from
the home of Mr.. Stuart Thompson, at
which time the old trouble was renewed.
Simpson charged Jones with having
talked about him and with having
threatened his life. Jones denied that
that he had ever done either, and as
he did so, got up from the pile of rock
on which he was sitting that the might
be in better position to defend himself
in case of attack. At this time neither
of the men were armed, Jones gun be-
ing some feet away and Simpson having
none at all. After Jones had risen to
his feet the attitude of the two men
grew more threatening, hot words were
used, and before anyone could put forth
a hand to prevent, Simpson wrenched
gun from the hands of his brother, Ira,
who was standing by and fired charge
of shot into Jones' body, killing him
instantly. Simpson then left the scene
of the tragedy and up to this time all
efforts on the part of the county autho-
rites to locate him have proved unavail-
ing. The general supposition is that
Simpson will surrender himself with
in the next two or three days and en-
deavor to obtain his release by giving
bond.
