NOTHING IS TOO GOOD FOR THAT BABY

He'd be such an ideal, ladylike pro prietor of dry goods store in smal town-and here he is trying to be {; clubman, cotillon leader and a sad dog generally! Just because his ia. ther has money and he's been to eel. lege and something is expected of him! If he belonged to 30 clubs and had new dress suit every ten min utes I should always see huntin, Georges footsteps, like a second se1f or familiar ghost, nice, lowing. retiring little man, with a yardstick handy and an eager desire to display the last bargain in silks!
 Think how much simpler it would be for George! He wouldn't have to work nearly so hard as he does now, and maybe his countenance woul ] lose that pained. anxious expression which comes from wondering If he's doing the right thing and whether the right person has noticed it at the right minute! Why can't people be inde. pendent?"
 Well, why don't you start 1t ans quit your hated gymnastics ?" demard. ed listener.
 Oh" bopelessly said the glrl whc lies to talk, that's diiiuitLt.'

Some County Salaries

There seems to be a wide differ
ence OF opinion regarding salaries
OF our county officers. The best
paid officers r the treasurer and
sometimes the sheriff. Both are
fee Offices.
The collector gets a fee salary.
He receives 1 3-4 per cent on cur
rent taxes, 1 percent on railroad
and telegraph tax and 4 per cent
on back taxes. He pays his help
OUT OF this.
The county clerk also receives
his pay in fees, bus his salary is
limited to $4,000, with a deputy at
$3.50. AS the fees run above this
amount he gets his fun salary.
The circuit clerks office, Mr..
Scott informs us, is the smallest
paid in the entire list. 1t is a fee
office limited to $4,000 with a dep
uty at $3.50. The fees usually
fail short. The public pays a tax
only in criminal cases.
AuC oLtIlllb OlllCe ID u Zee OiI1Ce
and usually pays well. 1t is not
limited. We are told it runs to
$4,000 at times, but the more fees
the more expense is incurred for
help.
The treasurer is a salaried officer
fee office. The assessor is paid
by hsts-25c each for the first 5000
and zoe for the balance. He must
pay his own deputies.
The treasurer is a salaried office
He receives $500 per year with
an additional fee of one-half of one
per cent on school funds handled.
Recorder Swisher says he has
"small picking" The salary is pad
in fees and as he never reaches the
limit given by statute, ne is always
"short."
The prosecuting attorneys office
we r told now pays $25OO under
the new law.
The probate judge receives his
pay in fees, as well as the public
administrator.

Good Ball Games Yesterday
and Sunday; McGiaN Wins One
Ely 0ne---Penant in Doubt

the series and in spite of that knowl-
egde, made a joke of the attendance
at the ball park Sunday. When the
game was called, exactly five en-
thusiastic Cd rooters were on the
wet planks of the grand stand. Ely
fed fat its ancient grudge against
Nevada Northen by winning in the
tenth inning.
Each team scored a point in the
first, N. N. was less fortunate in
the second. Then followed a series
of hits by Ely which the Railroaders
fielded like an aggregation of gophers
Ely broke into the lead in their
half. Mulligan singled and stole
second because there was no use in
not doing it. Trywall sacrificed.
Dickinson hit to third bringing
Mulligan home. In the third there
was little to disturb the serenity of
the occasion. Durkee was a busy
boy in the fourth. Put on as a runner
for Day, he reached second on the
latter's bupt. Shoots hit to first
brought Durkee home, tying the
score,
Ely again regained the lead when
after Dickenson's single and steal
to second Daley whaled a long fly
to center SO far that Dick walked
home. The fifth was u~neventful.
Impressed with the tenuosity of
run behind Day set out to increase
the score with a single. Days run
ner stole second, when J. Fulmer's
smashing shot brought MIN home,
q noin twin n tho cnnrn T1 fh1 caunpfh
and eighth no one lived to see Sec
ond.
The ninth was characterized by an
example of the most vicious smuggling
seen this yea J. Fulmer made a
promising opening with a single.
Code was out on a fly to center. j.
Fulmer was put out at second but
Durkee reached first On the short
stops error. Waits swatted a
mighty fly to left field. Durkee
made the grand hustle from first
home and slid to the plate just as
Luchessi jumped for the ball return
ing from the field. Durkee's slide
knocked Luchessi~ off his feet and
both landed in a heap. Then came
an exhibition of rage that would
have 'club-housed" Ely's catcher
for a month had he been playing
professional ball. Before Durkee
had time to pick himself up,
Luchessi had him by the throat and
was trying to put him out of bust
ness, when several players came to
the rescue. Such tactics are unsports-
manlike to say the least. Durkee's
run gave the Nevada Northern the
lead by n point. In Ely's half
of the ninth, Dickinson tied the score
on Connors hit. In the tenth Ne
yada Northern failed to score. In
Ely's half with a nan on third,
Mulligan got the necessary hit to
win the game.

trict comes through the well known
association of most of the gentlemen
who are going into the new enter
prise with the Bank of Ely and the
First National Bank. While the new
bank and these banks will be
affiliated in no direct way, the as
sociation of the same controlling
capital in the new million dollar en-
terprise obviously will be of advan-
tage to the local concerns.
The advantage that the new insti-
tuition will represent to the mining
industry is readily apparent from
the fact that the gentlemen putting
up the new concern are nearly all
mining men, and naturally have a
better understanding of the needs Of
mining interests and the extent to
which they can be safely and legiti
mately accommodated than prevails
at the present time in banking
circles of the west. 1t means in
fact a miners bank in Salt Lake,
been extant in the west and south
west.
The plans for this bank are under

Armstrong and his associates W
years ago. About the time they were
ready to enter into the new enter
prise, however, the panic fell upon
the country and in common with
all other new enterprises then in
contemplation, it went to the shelf
pending a return of normal business
conditions. 1t is evident from the
announcement now made that those
interested in the new bank consider
that the country is once more safely
on it's feet and are therefore proceed
ing with execution of their original
plan.

perts, the world may warm itSlef for
a considerable term of years on the
product of our far eastern possession.
All of which calls to mind the re-
markable luck of Uncle Sam in ac-
quiring territory that produces min
eral that is the envy of the entire
world. Alaska, the despised, is send
ing out gold enough every year to pay
for herself. Copper mines of untold
wealth have been discovered there,
and a railroad is being built inland
from Seward to tap them.
Still back of this the United States
acquired from Mexico the Gadsden
purchase, a vast stretch of apparent
ly worthless land. That strip of it
across Arizona and New Mexico was
long known as the land that God
forgot" Yet American prospectOrs
went into it, and at first opened up
gol4 and silver mines that paid pro-
d~igiously. Still later attention was
turned to the copper deposits in that
region, and such busy towns as Bis
bee sprang up along the frontier, sup
ported entirely by the copper mines.
Recently Arizona has taken her
place as the greatest copper-produc.
ing commonwealth in the union, and
that region lying about her southern
borders has come to be known as the
greatest coppre-producing belt in
the world. Michigan and Montana
have been relegated to second and
third place, and the cactus-covered
southwest has been given the palm.
Truly it seems that wherever the
Yankee sticks his pick in the ground

Mining has been greatly retarded
IN the past by the fact that the gen.

about the industry, and, lamentably
lave neither had the time nor the
inclination to find out. The indus

II the thousand OF more people
had known what was coming, a
greater percentage would have re-
manned in the grand stand yester-
day and would have seen McGiii
capture the game and incidentally
the hundred dollar purse.
1t was a very pretty exhibition OF
the National pastime, clean, with just
enough hitting, and ginger plus. The
boys from the C~opperopolis had the
best of the argument at the bat, and
thereby hangs the tale.
Fay, on the other hand, was very
effective, keeping his hits well scat
tered and whitewashed the Elyites
for seven innings. Worthington
pitched a good game, and although
we'll supported for the most part,
errors were made by his team mates
at just the wrong time and were
expensive. The Smelter team is
credited with just as many misplays,
but they cost but little. Such is
the luck of the game. Each team
participated on two fast double
plays, and the field work as a whole
was a joy to the lover of the sport
and to the supporters of the re-
spective teams.
With the splendid games of the last
two days, each team in the Steptoe
Valley league has shown what it is
capable of, and this ought to be an
incentive to finish the season strong.
But a few games remain to be play
ed, yet each team has a show for
the rag" and the interest in the
series will be increased accordingly.
