ATTACKED

Driven to desperation In its fight
the Reno Gazette has made a state
ment that the Governor is drawing
four salaries from the state.
The accusation is made in the
course OF an argument to show that
Theo. Clark, candidate for councilman
in Reno, who draws two salaries now.
them and the Gazette, in a phrase
worthy of Oscar Morgan in his most
dyspeptic mood, says that opponents
of Clark who are supporting Dicker-
son, should not cavil at Clark's amb-
tion to get his snout and both feet
in the pubic trough when the Cover
nor draws four salaries himself.
Now as a matter of fact the Cover
nor draws the salary OF Governor,
$4,000 and the salary of the commits
sary OF the state police, allowed hlm
by law, 5000 and no more. He has
refused to take the salary OF the lieu
tenant governor, which he might le.
gaily take, or that of the adjutant
general which he might in legality
take.
The Gazette's reason for this state
ment is perfectly plain. The Gazette
wants Dickerson to call off the State
Bullion Tax Collector and his partner
from activity in Reno politics, that's
all there is to it.
Dickerson is at his mine in White
Pine County, out OF reach until May
at least.
The Appeal hoped Ernest Bingham
worthy democrat and a gentleman,
who is at the helm in The Gazette
Office would not descend to Morgan
atic-no pun ntended-tactics. ana
will watch with interest for the cor
rection Bingham Is certain to make
in the Gazette.

NEVADASHALL
BE MISSED

The Goldfeld Tribune has the fol
lowing pertinent remarks on the fail
urc OF the legislature to nave Nevada
represented at the Pacific. .Yukon-Alas.
ka Exposition AZ Seattle:
IL Is q regretable circumstance that
Nevada, as the leading and most in
teresting mining state OF the union
should be the only one missing from
the mineral display at Seattle. 1t is
TOO late to do more than depiore the
hnicky policy OF the legislature that
decreed the death of the measure
providing for an appropriation Tor
this purpose. The money could no.
be spent to better advantage. and tIe
exposition patrons will naturally grow
skeptiCal OF the reports OF the miner
al wealth OF Goidiield when they look
in vain for an exhibit OF the phenom-
cnal wealth of southern Nevada. Nat.
urally the visitors who take an inter
est in mine or those who have ever
bought a share of mining stock will
visa to see some of the famous high
grade that runs dollars to the pound
and their disappointment cannot oe
gress proposes TO establish an agent
at the Alaska-iukd n exposition to
preach Goidtield to the masses, but
his efforts will lose much OF theil
force by failure of the state TO be full
ly represented with II mineral display.
This bill appropriating $4,000 to
put a typical mining camp i'll the EN-
position and make a display of Neva-
da products passed the House with
but four dissenting votes.
In tle Senate Barney Reymers. who
fought the bill persistently. moved To
indefinitely postpone. Without giving
the merits of the bill the slightest
consideration the following Senators
voted to indefinitely postpone: Bros
cmer. Belzar, Easton Holmes, Ken
dali. Locklin. Mack, Reymers, Syphus.
Those voting against the motion to
indefinitely postponed were Coryeh,
Douglas. House, Tallman, Pyne and
Woodbury..
These men believed Nevada had re-
sources to exhibit at Seattle. Coryell
made Il strong speech against shelly
ing the bill but ais words passed un'
needed. Those who did nO deem the
bill of sufficient interest % be pes
ent were Bell. Boyd. Carpenter and
Hunter.
Thus Nevada is the only state in
the Union not To be represented at
the biggest exposition held in the
tinted States since the Chicago Eek
position. The cost of opening the
sftes of this exposition will be ten
I,illions.

HE'S A CHEERFUL LOSER

U. S. District Attorney Sam Piatt
is the most cheerful loser in the city.
He has had single handed to fight
every young and ambitious lawyer in
the capital, and some old and exper-
fenced men, ali OF whom have ex-
hausted every point known to the
practice of law to beat sam and his
cases.
They have beaten Sam too and Sam
has had a hard row to hoe, but he
comes right back smiling for the next
one Even if he does lose case
once in while he keeps at it and his
friends are admiring his pluck IN stay
ing with it the way he does.

OPERA FAUST
HER THEME

, One of the most interesting and sue
cessful evenings given at the Leisure
Hour Club this season was that OF
Miss Annie Schulz last night when
Guonod's Faust" was given.
OF the $50 operas ON this subject.
that OF Guonod is the grandest of
them ali. The story is almost as old
as folk lore. 1t is found in the liter
ature of nearly every nation and tribe
| that has any literature. 1t is a story
OF human aspiration, wherein a man
gives his souls salvation for power
and glory and honor md da,hopor
| and while the man himself, Faust, f.
naliy attains celestial bliss, the track
he leaves on the earth is marked by
broken hearts and ruined lives.
Guonod managed to sound the high
est note OF over 100 composers who
have essayed to tell the story in verse
and harmony, and his one compost
tion has been repeated oftener than
all others combined.
on the opera itself and then began
the illustrations. The overture to the
opera, a transposition, prepared for
what was to follow.
Mrs. Finch sang the first number
"All Hail, Brightest of Days and Last"
in most acceptable manner. Red
or Golden" by Clyde Lewis and the
chorus followed.
Mrs. Slingerland did beautifully
with "All Hail Thou Dwelling" and
the satirical Clear the Way for the
Calf of Gold, by Clyde Lewis COM
pleted the first half of the program.
Miss Mabel Stewart sang tie Song
of the King of Thule" in a character
istic manner and was followed BY
Clyde Lewis in Maiden Feigning to
be Sleeping" Miss Stewart SANG
Gentle Flowers in the Dew" and the
program ended with the famous So
diers Chorus one OF the most stir
ring compositions in this vein in all
opera.
me selections by Miss Schulz are
all out of the ordinary group selected
from this opera. The jewel song, the
prison trio and others as we'll known
to opera gOers were not attempted.
and the illustrations really gave =
new insight to the opera for the rea-
son that none of the hackneyed az
| las were heard.
The orchestra that assisted was
composed of the Misses Stone, Castle.
Adams, Ardery, Raycratt and Schulz.
| Messrs. Day and Coombs.
The chorus was Miss Stewart, Nine.
Slingerland, Nine. Finch, Nine. Ella
Yerington, Nine. Mills and Nine.
! Noteware, Mr.. Lewis, Mr.. Cowing.
! Mr. Hunting, Mr.. Murray and Mr.. Van
| Lerlieth.
| The whole evening was IaOst enjoy
able as well as instructive.
