TWO MURDERERS
GET Is YEARS
THE FlNLANDERs, WHO KILLED
coUNTRYMEN AT 5RocKET,
PLEAD GUILTY AT DEVILS
LAKE.

Devils Lake, N. D., Aug. 24.--Chas
Johnson and Louis Hill, the two
Firms who murdered their countryman
Charles Mathi at Rrocket, Aug. TO-
were sentenced to twenty FIVE years in
the penitentiary by Judge Cowan yes
terday. The two men were allowed by
States Attorney Duell to plead guilty
to the crime of murder in the second
degree.
Attorney McClory. who had been ap-
pointed by the court to act as at
torney for the men, held long talk
with them during the morning. and
decided that the best thing he could
do for them was to make the plea.
They were arraigned before the court
and the information against them read
by States Attorney Duell Aaron
Hooker of Brocket was present to
translate the document. and the men
appeared to understand their situation.
Johnson was a little broken up, and
wept visably during the performance
but Hill kept his stolid composure
through the whole process. When
they were asked and had answered as
to their intention to make the plea Of
guilty. the states attorney moved for
immediate sentence.
Pleaded for Leniency.
Attorney McClory made a short ar
gument to the court. and presented
some of the extenuating circumstances
In the case. He told that the men
had had nothing to eat during the day
and that the bunch who had been
playing poker were drawing money
out of the pots with which they con-
stantly bought alcohol. Hill and John
son he considered to be not responsible
in large part for their actions, and
than their appearance of premedita-
tionfarose from the fact that they were
too drunk to know what they were
doing. He closed the talk with an
appeal to the court to make the SEN
tence as light as possible.
Judge Cowan in passing sentence,
told the men that they were getting
off very easily. that their crime had
been sufficient to hang them, and in
accordance with this. the fact that they
had pleaded guilty to lesser charge
did not entitle them to much consider
alton.

Although the full crew law passed
both houses of the legislature and was
made a law by the Governor signing it
on the 9th Of this month the Southern
Pacific Railway company has so far
failed to comply with it's provisions.

Sagebrush May be Put TO Good Use

The Thomas Chemical Company of
San Francisco has had an expert in Car
son Valley for the past two weeks max
ing experiments to ascertain the per
centage of potash contained in sage
bruh of this Valley. "
We understand that the worlds SUP
ply of potash is rapidly diminishing be-
cause of the increased demand for the
chemical in commercial uses during the
past few years. Germany is the largest
producer of potash and yearly exports
large quantities to the United States.
The Thomas Company alone consumes
one ton of potash each day and are
carrying on numerous investigations IN
their quest to discover If possible, large
quantities of the desired chemical nearer
to home .........
Various ways of utilizing sagebrush
have been attempted but to our knowl-
edge has never served to any advantage
save to lead the farmer to the richest
soil, because the taller the sagebrush
the richer the land.
Ash wood carries about 90 per cent of
the chemical and it is presumed that the
same amount is contained by the sage
brush. At this percentage the Thomas
Company would need to reduce 1875
tons Of sage brush every day to acquire
the amount of potash that is consumed
by that firm.-Gardnervil Courier.

Railroads Now Can Get
Unbreakable Steel Rails

hdlFOdOS NOW IAN UeC
UnbreakabIe Steel Rails
A Chicago dispatch says: The rail
roads of the United States can have a
steel rail whichwill be guaranteed not
to break, provided they are willing to
pay the price. The statement is made
by officials of the Pennsylvania Steel
company, an independent manufacturer
of steel rails.
While the officials of the company
are trying to impress this upon the OPP
Grating men of the country, nearly 400
engineering and operating experts are
gathered here trying to draft such
specifications and compel such tests as
will insure rails which will not break
and cause loss of life and property. r..
Among the exhibits is one by this
Independent steel company which has a
new rail and which it stands ready to
guarantee that it has life many times
as great as the famous Bessemer rail.
Shonld this statement prove true then
the American railroads will have an
end of the vexed steel rail problem,
which is costing them, they claim, many
lives and destroying millions of dollars
worth of property every year.

SALMAGUNDI


Read our business locals elsewhere.
y None of Elko county's legislators
showed up TODAY. They were probably
too fatigued with their labors to leave
Carson yesterday.
A light snow fell last night and this
forenoon there was quite blizzard.
Taking the day as a whole it has been a
genuine March day.
John Henderson returned from Carson
this morning. He is charged with the
defeat of the guarantee deposit feature
of the new banking law. Some of the
state papers give him hail Columbia for
defeating that feature of the bill.
Don't work for wages all your life.
Owning property is the first step to In.

Nearly all the state papers condemn
the legislature for what it did and what
it failed to do. The writer knows so
little about the laws passed, that: he
does not feel justified in making an ex-
tended criticism. He is safe in saying,
however, that some of the legislation
was most extravaganza. New positions,
useless to the people, were created and
official salaries were raised where there
is no justification for the increase.
Governor Dickerson seemed very
much disappointed at the refusal of
the senate to abolish the state board
of assessors and the defeat guarantee
feature of the new banking law.
Beside sending special message to
the legislature on both matters, he
Issued another signed statement and
had it published in an extra edition of
the Carson Appeal The governor
seems to run to signed statements, but
the last one had no effect On the senate
Senators Hunter and Coryell are be-
ing lambasted by the press for voting
against the guarantee deposit feature Of
the banking law. Some of the papers
go SO far as to charge John Henderson,
with cracking this whip over them, be-
eau eSthey are debtors to the bank.
This Charge we believe is false, as Sena-
tors Hunter and Coryell were not pledg-
led to vote for guarantee deposit bank
ing law. They doubtless voted their
honest congictipns on the bill irrespec-
tive of Mr.. Henderson.
