RAWE1IDE
ON FIRE

RAWH1IDE. New. May l4.-Fire
broke out shortly after midnight in
the California beer hall in the upper
end of town, the only portion Of the
camp that was saved from the con-
Migration OF September 4 of last
year and the camp is threatened by
the hames. A soft wind from the
north is blowing and there is little
hope for the town. The adjoining
buildings are ablaze anu the fire u
getting close to the Nevada Hotel
the one building that halted the fire
of last September. The entire popu-
lation is out, comprising men, women
and children and the volunteer tire
department is doing heroic work.
A stream has been turned into the
burning buildings against which the
fire king seems to have little chance.
T9he firemen are working like demons
and fighting the flames foot to foo;.
The entire heavens are aglow with
the rejection of the flames, and it
looks as if there might be a REPETITION
OF the September tire.
While the fire was at its height
screams Of women were heard and
there was rush up the hill on the
ground between the Mint and Dayton
Toledo leases, and two women, both
hysterical were dragged out OF their
little home just above the powder
magazine Of the Dayton-Toledo. The
names OF the women cannot be learn
ed at this time.
A Gordon Of men surround the Ne
vada Hotel. All the guests have been
aroused and are in the street in va
rious conditions OF disrobement. The
wind lis dying out and it looks as
though the town might be saved.
Emil Grutt, one of the most valient
OF the fire fighters, was severely cut
by glass while breaking through the
big win4Ows in the front OF the sa
loon. The leat was so intense that
he fell through one of the windows
in an unconscious state and was res
cued by two members OF the voiuntee-

ORES GO FREE

\ telegram from Saln p. Davis.
chairman OF the state publicity iu-
r, auf who is now in S'l Francisco
reads as follows:
The FREIGHT departm- of tie
Southern Pacific railroad has granted
/. ee feright ,@,Cs for all 2XhiDits sen,
from points IN Nevada to the Seattle
Exposition on its lines ri mig as Tar
IS Portland. This arran ,5,'men. was
Ic.cl ed to .aV between the freISh'
ueI.Itment and the cha'rrG. Of the
'icity commission.
SAM DAVIS"
This means tha Nevada will be
able to eXpend every dollar the com.
mission collects in placing the eX-
hibit at the fair. The management
OF the exposition donates Nevada 1000
square feet of space and the publicity
commission is gathering funds from
the different counties, many of which
have come to the front.
1t is almost certain that tle rail
roads north of Portland will carry
the exhibits for nothing, AS does the
Southern Pacific.
The southern counties are making
every effort to gather a suitable eX-
bigi, at the earliest possible moment
and the commission will place it at
the fair as soon as ii arrives in Seat
tie. Chairman Davis is expected to
return shortly to Nevada. Meantime
communication may be addressed to
capt j. B. Menardi Reno.

WARRENS TO
HAVE HELP


Warren Engine Company was held at
their engine house last night and con.
siderable business was transacted
among which was the election OF otti-
GERS for the coming year. Reports of
the old officers were read and accept
ed and the following gentlemen will
serve for the coming year:
George H. Meyers. president; Jos.
Stern, vice-president, A. &. Meyers.
secretary: H. r. Burlington treas
urer; Wallace Evans. foreman; AL.
Karge, first assistant; Dan Quill.
second assistant.
Various committee for the year were
also elected.
Two matters OF Importance were
discussed at the meeting last night.
One was the installation Vi q fire
alarm system in the city, something
that is badly needed. A committee
from the company met with the city
trustees at the last meeting and the
latter promised to install a system il
q suitable one can be secured at a
moderate cost. A committee was ap-
pointed last night to take the matter
up with fire alarm system companies
and determine the cost. AS soon as
this is done report will be made to
the city trustees and it Is to be hoped
that 1t will be received with favor.
Another matter was the formation
OF & Junior Warren company to be
composed Of young men between the
ages of 16 and 20. Twenty-Five nam-
es have so far ueen secured and the
organization Of the company will be
taken up Immediately by a commit
tee appointed last night for that pur-
pose.
For the first time inLhe> history OF
the city there is but one fire company
and upon it devOlves the entire re-
sponsibility Of fire protection. For
years past the Warrens have endeav-
ored TO get the city TO install fire
fighting apparatus but have been un'
successful until the present board OF
city trustees was elected. These gen
tlemen have considered the demand
and have added considerable to the
equipment OF the company but even
with what has been added the fire
protection OF the city is limlted and
much more must be done before first
Gloss protection from the fire demon
is assured. One Of the next moves
that should be made, and this at an
early date, is the procuring of a team
to haul the apparatus to fires. Also
night and a day man at the engine
| house This with an alarm system
will insure prompt and efficient work
and the expense will be more than
Offset at the first fire OF serious ma.
ture in the city.
The Warrens need the support OF
every one in the city. 1t is a volun
| leer company, ever ready to do its
! whole duty, asking no reward for ser
! vices rendered and TO do this they
Should be given the necessary equip
t ment that their efforts may be crown
ed with success and the property in
Carson City given the Iullest protec
| Irion.

The senate paid graceful tribute to
Senator L. B. Hanna, now congressman
elect, through an invitation to address
the senate. Senator Talcott of Cass
county, who has the distinction of being
always clever, courteous and tactful,
made the motion that the senate invite
Mr.. Hanna to address the body and it
was carried by a rising vote Mr.
Hanna tactfully avoided any reference
to partisan politics, and confined his
address to an expression Of his pleas
ure at being again in the senate cham
Der, where he spent so many sessions,
and at seeing many old members and
meeting a number of new ones. Mr..
Hanna goes to Washington the latter
part of February to begin upon his
term as congressman at the special ses-
sion which will probably be called
March 4. Mr.. Hanna has rare business
ability, is tactful and friendly, and may
be relied upon to represent North Da-
kota well. The state. is fortunate in
having such representatives, and Mr..
Hanna begins upon his term as con-
gresham with the good will and conf
dence OF, every one in the state who
knows him. And his friends know that

The committees OH election of the

are already a dozen bills in for the
amendment of the present primary law,
and one or two for an entirely new sys-

have been introduced to limit the ex-

making campaign for Office, and there
are many ways in which it is proposed
to promote purity of elections. 1t is
difficult to remake human nature by
law, and that is what some of the cleo

who become candidates for Office are
anxious to be elected, and to limit by

bills that have been and will be intro

introduced yet will be adopted without
much amendment. The object of pri
mary law is to get good nominees, rep
resenting the desires of their party and
who will we'll serve the interests of the
people, and to nominate them without
too much waste of time. expense and
patience, and with the least cumber-
someness and difficulty consistent with
good results. All of the states are ex-
perimenting with primary laws and it is
likely to be many years before sys-
tenn is devised that nearly approximates

North Dakota now has FIVE judges of

North Dakota now has five judges OF
the supreme court, the additional places
being filled by the governor with the
appointment of S. E. Ellsworth of
Jamestown and John Carmody of Hills
boro. They will qualify at once and be-
gin upon the performance of their Of
fetal duties, and will serve until the
next general election by virtue OF their
appointment. Mr.. Ellsworth is a Re-
publican and Mr.. Carmody is an old
line and old time Democrat Both have
long been members of the state bar as
ISOLATION and engaged in the practice
of law in the state. There is no posi-
ton within the gift of the people so
important as that of judge Of the ST.
preme court, for from every other
source of authority there is an appeal,
but the supreme court is the place of
last resort, beyond which the person
who may feel himself aggrieved cannot
go. A judge of this court should be
learned in the law, en- JOY the confidence
of his fellow citizens to rare degree,
should have no personal prejudices or
feelings to enter into his adjudications,
and should have fairness, learning and
a judicial temperament, which is that
temperament that can divest itself of all
prejudices, partisanship, or personal
feeling, and act purely from the stand
point of the unbiased judge. With FIVE
judges of the supreme court the Susi-
ness of the court should be more speed
lily dispatched; particularly if the bill
carries to hold all regular terms of the
court at the capital. where they should
be held.

The newspapermen of the state have
been accustomed for several years to
hold meetings in Bismarckain the course
of the legislative session and meeting
of the press association will be held in
the city on Monday The ranks of the
newspapermen of the state have grown
broader in the past few years, with the
great growth OF the state. and there
are many new men engaged in the bust
ness of printing newspapers. 1t is we'll
that they come together occasionally for
an exchange of ideas and for mutual
encouragement and assistance. They
will be enabled at the present time to
meet the members of the legislature,
to see laws in the making, and to ad
vance their own legitimate interests by
a proper and fair presentation of the
matters in which they are and ought
to be interested The newspapermen
of the state are not as rule wealthy.
A great many of them exc out meagre
existence, and yet they are hard work
ers and do much to advance the inter-
rsts of their towns and counties. They
are not as general rule good business
men, and they have not the faculty of
getting and keeping. A little better
business sense would be helpful to the
newspaper business generally: And it
would raise the standard of newspapers
and put them on a basis of independ-
ence and strength. Nothing contributes
to the respect enjoyed by newspaper
and newspaperman more than a meas
ure of financial independence.
