ARE TO CLOSE
UP TODAY

GOLDFlELD, October =. - Tne
American Mining Congress, in the
closing hours of its convention here.
its forestry committee, which asked
for an emphatic condemnation of the
practices of tie forest service of
the United States Government"
The censure, by inference, of Chief
Forester Clifford Pincnot thus was
fOrestalled
The defeat Of the movement which
threatened to cause the adoption OF
the committee report, was accom-
plished by the personal efforts of
Judge H. Richards of Idaho. retiring
president of the Congress, and to
whom the highest honor can be con
telred by that body, was extended
yesterday Wien he was elected Il per
manent, honorary director
Judge Richards threw into the bal
ance all his personal popularity and
influence, even to reSigning the chair
and addressing the Delegates from
the floor when his effort to defeat
me com zee ltpOlI DA resolution
had seemed to fail. His address was
a cool survey Of the Inconsistencies
Of the report. which nad immediate
effect upon the delegates He was
seconded by E. A. p. Johnson, of
ElkO, Nevada, who protested against
The effort to throw insult in the face
OF the government from which you
IL;
adopt the report was withdrawn un-
der the pressure brogught to bear.
The controversy Of this matter has
been simmering ever since the con
9ress convened. Oscar J. Smith, of
Reno, chairman of tn esub-com-
mittee on forestry, was the leader of
the opposition to Pinchot, while
Judge Richards was determined that
no censuring resolution or report
should be adopted.
The matter was brought up this
morning when Chairman Smiths re-
port was read. The response of w.
ID. Dyer, Of Washington, ID. c.. who
appeared as the personal representa-
tive of the forestry service, did much
to smooth out affairs but late in the
afternoon Smith moved the adoption
OF the report OF the general commit
tee, which had been circulated among
the delegates that the tendency of
years has been to encrOach upon the
rights OF the individual Citizen"
Mr., Smith withdrew his motion
with the consent Of Kepner, stating
that harmony was all le desired and
what he expected since ne had heard
Mr.. Dyers' address in the morning.

WHAT OTHERS
ARE SAYING

Sam Davis, Carson City's crratic
and original newspaper man, who has
ut times been Nevada's Hepry Wat
tcrson, Is one Of the visitors to the
Mining Congress.
What's the matter up at Carson?
asked u News representative. The
papers up there have II new editor
most every change Of the moon, and
we cant keep track of who is editing
them
Mr.. Davis sspliled reminisccntly.
"Oh as far as the Appeal goes | have
Icased nat to District Attorney Rob
crts, and Irwin Lewis is still writing
Tor It's columns. Roberts Is airing the
state Bank n Trust Company through
the Appeals publishing the private
correspondence between the various
officials OF the ank, and. | tell YOU,
there Is some rich stuff coming out
Tor the depositors.
'The other day one OF the directors
OF the defunct institution met me on
the street and said: Say. Sam. how
long are you going to let that lunk-
head Roberts run your paper and
print the stun he is putting out? Why
he'll run the paper in the ground in
two months. and you won't have Il
subscriber left
Il told him" said Mr.. DAVIS. that
Roberts had been running the paper
three weeks now. paid his lease in
advance all the time. and We have
gained over 200 subscribers among
tae depostors of the bank, and lost
nine subscribers among the directors,
and they have been borrowing the
paper to see what was said about
them. Then. anyhow. We had To be
after the directors with bill collectors
all the time to get the
price OF the paper when they were
subscribers. while the depositors are
paying III advance, That's the differ
cnce."
Mr., Davis did not quote the reply
Of the director. SO We suppose that
was about all for that time.
Those letters give every evidence"
he said. that the directors paid fake
dividends. out Of the deposits. and, of
course. pocketed their share of the
dividends, OF course they may not
have done this. but tae letters that
have been published would give one
this impression. And Roberts says
that he has not begun publishing the
real interesting letters yet. They
viii begin showing up pretty quick
now
II asked Hickey some time ago:
Tom. why in HI don't you pay the
depositors off and put au end to all
this rumpus? You got the money
why in the devil don't You
come through? He seemed to
think that he might pay them off all
right. were II not for the fact that he
might do something in violation OF
The law In so doing, Mr. Davis
smiled, and there was suspicion of
good natured wink of the other
eye, Goldfeld News.

WANTS $4,000
FOR DEATH

RENO, October 2.-As a result OF a
casualty at the ChOllar mine in Fir,
gina City in which Clarence J. Ben
ner Of that city and well known in
Reno, lost his life and the lives Of
many OF his companions were put in
danger Mack & Green, attorneys for
the administrator of the young mans
estate, yesterday filed suit in the dis
trict court for $50, 600 damages.
The suit is against the Truckee Riv
er General Electric Company, which
has the contract for furnishing power
to the Chollar mine and which is
charged with negligence is safeguard
ing its wires.
Bennett was killed August 18th at
neon time as he was leaving the tun-
mel for lunch. He stepped on a rail
and al the same time leaned
the corrugated iron house lining
the interior Of the tunnel at IL;
mouth. A wire carrying a heavy
current was in contact with the iron
and Benner's body short-circuited
the charge.
Although the action is brought in
HE district court it is probable that
it will be transferred to tle United
States court at Carson on account of
Che fact that defendant company is a
foreign corporation.

BASEBALL ENTHUSIASM,

The first game of ball played in the new field at the station re- suited in a walk-oyer for the local boys, the victims being the High flanders of New Milford. Through a misunderstanding the game was to have been scrub" or practice game for the regular line up, but the Highlanders, or a part of them, were on their way over and rather than disappoint them game was played minus the services of Daily, the pitcher, who enjoyed the. day at the riN CT. As has been said, the game was fruit for the boys. Silver pitched the whole game and did fine for a man who hasn't pitched in nearly 10 years. The score at the seventh inning was Mine Hill i2, Highlanders 0, the fiaal score, Mine Hill 15, Highlanders 6. The out of town boys had three men left on bases at two different times and 'theil pitchers were bit wild as nc less than six gainel first by the hospital route. Outside the catch ing by Walker, the features were the slugging of Whelan, who in five times up tot hit twice and two two-baggers and a t.ipe. Silver. Walker and Jenkins also connected for dout''es. Daddy Vallely covered the initial bag, Ia hot chase. The batting order of the Mile Hill team was as follows: Lleyers ss, Walker c, WheIen If, J. Callaghan 2b, Jenkins cf, Spargo ab, yailely ib, Naase If, Siifers p. Umpire, M. Callaghan, scorer, L. Minor.

EDITORIAL INK DROPS.

The new school law, which went Into effect, July l5, will be a radical
 (and 1t Is hoped q very benedcial) change from the old district system,
 It makes consolidation compulsory with the entire abolition of the dis triet committees, putting the full control of the schools and school pro- perty into the hands of the town school committee, who taSe yhe place of the scaool board. The town is to own all school buildings and proper ty. Compensation is to be made to the districts based upon the values placed upon thier property by the board of assessors. An equlization tax which will adjust these values. Unfortunately Newtown is not af- fected by this bill, as towns having boroughs or cities in their borders are not included in its provisions.

Miss Lois Huntington, violinist of New York and pupil or the late Hubert Arnold, played two solos, the andlnte from the Wianiaske Con cert and the adagio from the 3rd suite of Frans Ries at the morning service in St Johns church, last Sunday. Miss Huntington's tone, grayely sonorous at times and al- ways sympathetic and of a carrying quality, gave great pleasure to the congregation, who earnestly wished the music might be repeated at the evening service. Miss Huntirgton's violin is an Amati and she is to be congratulated on being the possess or of III instrument capable of re- spending to her interpretation. Le Roy Beaumont Donkey was the ac- companist.
