J. b. Randall. who has charge of
the Twin Falls branch of the First
National bank. of Ogden, is spending
a few days in the district on husi-
ness matters. Mr. Randall in an in
teryiew last evening stated that he
found Ely one of the best camps that
he has seen in long time and that
he would like 10 locate here If con-
ditions were snch that he could. He
states that the district is everywhere
favorably thought of and that he had
been DESTROYS for some time OF
chance to come here and look II
over Yesterday he visited the
shelter where the immensely of the
plants provided him with a surprise.
He stated that he had been connected
with a number of smelling plants. but
the Steptoe was the largest he had
ever seen. Mr.. Randall says that the
Idano Southern railroad has force
of men. at Twin Falls and that il Is
the intention of the company to rush
construction to completion This
road will connect with the Southern
Pacic four miles east of Cobrc, the
survey which made connection with

N DANGER OF STARVING.
Alpine Tunnel Man and Wife and
Five Men Are Snowhound.

BuENA VISTA. Colo. Feb. 16.-
Snowbound at the crest of the Con-
tinental Divide at Alpine tunnel on
the Colorado & Southern railroad. a
party of seven Is in imminent danger
of starvation. according to a party
of nine men. who reached here last
night after terrible struggle
through the deep snow. The men
who arrived here are snow shovelers
and left Pine Pass, 1900 feet
above the sea level. Friday morning.
Ten hours were spent in making the
first six miles as only two of the party
had snowshoes. The snow in places
was found to be from 20 to 90 feet
in depth and a number of times the
little party had narrow escapes from
death by snow slides.
According To their stories, the par
ty at Alpine tunnel consists of Larry
Waters and his wife, who run the eat
ing house. and five traekmen, three
of them sick. They had nothing left
to eat except limited supply of cof-
fee and flour, enough for about two
days. and yesterdays new storm

WILLARD ENTERTAINs.

Professor Willard Hail. brother
of Councilman Hall. who comes here
highly recommended by the press of
the state, will give three exhibitions
of his wonderful powers at the Bio
theater, commencing tomorrow night.
The professor entertained a party of
friends Monday night at the
ern hotel, with some slight Of hand
work that would have made the great
Herman in his life time sit up and
take notice. The Elko Press had this
to say of Willard: Willard, the
man of mystery, fully made good his
promises at the opera house last
night The slight of hand work was
marvellous and many of the tricks
were new. The limitations were per-
feet and the hypnotic work carried
just far enough to show that he I'M
derstands the art of hypnotizing To-
night he will put subject in so deep
a sleep as TO he able TO break a rock

The boosters club. the organiza-

boiler makers of the district. met in
East Ely Monday night. and had a
smoker. the place being the dining
hall of the Cumberland hotel The
occasion was made most enjoyable
for the large number of members who

as result of which they will proba-
bly, settle on plans shortly for the
erection of a commodious building of

tary. Bert Manassa being elected to

LOEB TO SUCCEED FOWLER.
Washington Friends of Secretary Say
he Is to BE Appointed Collector.

WASHINGTON, Feb. i.;.-Friends
of William Loeb. Jr., secretary of the
president. announced today, evidently
with authority, that he will be APP
pointed collector of customs for the
port of New York after the expiration
of President Roosevelt's term of Of
flee.
Mr.. Loeb's name has been
mentioned frequently also I'm con-
nection with the assistant treasur-
ship of the United States, the post
mastership at New York and other
Offices below cabinet rank, but the
statement today that Mr.. Loeb will
succeed Colonel f. S. Fowler in the
colleetorship is believed TO be con-
elusive.
The White Pine news. [volume] (Ely, Nev.) 1906-1910, 1909-02-17

it always and necessarily is. under
Democratic as well as under Repub-
lican sway.
II is the system OF tariff framing
and not the individual members of
the ways and means committee or of
congress that IS to blame. But, in
dividually and collectively, congress
will be 10 blame unless it abolishes
the system. and gives MS the one
which is proposed by the great bust
ness organizations Of the country.
We. as the representatives of the
business men of the east and west.
the north and south, are here today
to give practical voice to this de-
mand. And while here We are likely
to say and do things which will con-
strain congress to listen, and to heed.
will give some reasons why a
change in the collection of facts TO
be used by our tariff trainers is i'm
perative. The carded wool people
say mat specific duties are unjust
to them, and want ad valorem rates.
On the same goods the worsted manu-
facturers take directly opposite
ground. The New England shoe
manufacturers want free hides. Most
of the western shoe men favor a re-
tention of the duty. Some of the
cattle men want the duties on hides
TO be advanced. Like Emergencies
are seen among the manufacturers of
chemicals. automobiles, and In many
other lines of trade. Mr.. Carnegie
says that steel manufacturers could
stand free trade. Mr.. Schwab says
than ever.
A board of disinterested men OF
large experience in trade such as
this convention proposes. could adj
just all these Emergencies. They
would have the time, the patience
and the impartiality to look at the
controyerted points from all sides.
They would eliminate the non-essen-
tials. reconcile the variances. They
would bring settlement which
would be fair enough to all interests
to command the assent of congress
and the country.
There Is no fundamental difference
between tariff Emergencies and other
sorts of disputes. All need judicial
adjustment What standing would
a court have in the community in
which either side of the controversy
would act as attorney. judge and
jury? And yet this is virtually what
is seen in the fixing of our tariff
rates under the present methods.
Our object here today Is to take
the tariff out OF partisan politics, and
keep IL ont. In this purpose we feel
that we are backed by the great mass
of thinking Americans, consumers
and producers. AS everybody in this
hall knows, the man who will call
congress in session few weeks
hence stands with us.
This convention of representative
American business men calls upon
our national law makers to insure
the country an adjustment OF the
;ariff according to the elemental die
tates of patriotism and common
sense. We ask congress to show the
obstruetionists that patriotism, even
when exerted in the homely work of
promoting the prosperity of the peo-
Pile. Is not necessarily and inevitably
unpatriotic. BY dealing with this
business proposition on business prin-
| ciples let congress point out to the
reaetionaries and the Bourbons that
common sense is not quite so uncom-
mon in the United States OF 1909 as
they might imagine.

STREAMS FLOODED.

Due to the thawing weather which
has prevailed the last several days.
the streams are all running bank full
and spring flood waters are looked
for. The heavy SHOWS which fell in
the mountains last week are rapidly
disappearing and frozen ground has
given place to exceedingly slushy con
ditions. So far no damage has been
reported.
