name TO
STAY ON THE
BALLOTS

CARSON City, Nov. 3. = The Gu
preme Court late this afternoon hand
ed down its decision in the case of j.
p. Donnelley, as chairman of the Re-
publican county central committee of
Esmeralda county against Joseph Ham
lion as county clerk of said county.
The decision of the court reverses an
order made by Judge Stevens and
holds that the name of T. V. Eddy, the
regular Republican nominee for the
office of district judge of the seventh
judicial district must remain on the
official ballot as the party candidate
for that office.
The Goldfield news. [volume] (Goldfield, Nev.) 1904-1911, 1910-11-05

AS was expected by those of the le-
gal fraternity who were conversant
with the facts in the case, the decision
of the Supreme Court comedies with
the opinion expressed in Goldfeld that
Eddy's nam would have to remain on
the ballot. Last week Deputy Sheriff
Donnelley and Deputy Sheriff Thomp-
son, as chairman and secretary of the
Republican county central committee,
brought an action in the district court
to have the county clerk remove Ed
dy's name from the official ballot as
the party candidate for district Judge,
alleging that the party would suffer ir-
reparable injury in the election by
having his name remain on the ticket.
The Supreme Court has promptly
ruled against this action, deciding
that the large Republican vote given
to Eddy at the primary election cannot
be betrayed. The decision s~ustains
the position that the will of the people
as expressed in the primary election
cannot be made subservient to the
will of a few dissenting politicians,
who attempted to deliver the Republi-
can vote to an individual, not a men,
Der of that party. In other words, it
holds that the primary election law
must be maintained in it's integrity.

On the Stray Dog claim Percy Nash
and B. Francisco are operating the old
Hudson lease. They are hosting $50
ore out of the 75-foot shaft. With the
milling facilities available in the dis
trict ore Of that value makes a lease q
good paying proposition.
An east side company that is "gorng
after it right" on the property is the
Hoosier. They are sinking a 500-foot
shaft on their ground and now have a
hole down 300 feet. No water has
bothered them up to date, but should
then encounter a large flow a crosscut
will be started for the ledge. There
is every reason to expect the exposure
or a large body of pay ore in this mine,
in the event of which the company will
construct a milling plant of it's own.
Below the Dexter company's proper
ty Putnam, Shea and Cannon are ope-
rating a placer lease. If there is any
doubt about placering in Manhattan
being fine business, their clean-ups,
which run from $50 to $75 per day,
ought to dispel it. Daily progress in
sluicing operations only serves to show
that the deposits of placer gold along
the gulch are very extensive. There
are certain to be some large fortunes

gold output may be largely increased.
Below the above named lease Dur
gan and Martinson are operating on
placer ground as leasers. Their sluiccs
are collecting a lot of nugget gold.
This block of ground stands to make
a good record.
Further down the gulch the Oliver

rich placer deposits. "Dry WASH

and is employing 80 men. He is tax

That the placer deposits Of Manhat-

the fact that leasers are at work at
Central, three miles below town. Raw
