At EARLY HOUR
REPUBLICAN CANDIDATES WILL
TAKE IN NORTHERN CAMPS

Hon. H. V. Morehouse, William
Easton, republican candidate for
lieutenant governor; w. G. Doug
lass, candidate for secretary of
state; William Mcmillan, candidate
for state treasurer; George SPRING
meyer, candidate for attorney gen.
eral; Jake Eggers, state controller,
and Charles f. Watson, state mine
inspector, left this morning for Man
haitian and Round Mountain. The
party was highly pleased at the re-
ception rendered by Tonopah and
each and every one stated that the
support promised by the voters of
this camp was almost an assurance
of election to the office sought.
This was particularly true in the
case of George Springmeyer. Mr..
Springmeyer has many friends in
this city and after his clean, forci-
BILE arguments last night, he re-
ceived the assurance of strong sup
port. In fact he was the recipient
of many congratulations after the
meeting was over, and his interpre-
tation of the state platform was un-
derstood by all.

TWO NOTED HUNTERS
RETURN EMPTY HANDED

Walter Mickey" Malone and A.
j. "Heinie' Annawaldt returned to
Tonopah late last evening from a
two weeks hunting trip in the
vicinity of Hot Creek. AS a result
of their labors they failed to even
bring back duck feather, in spite
of their assertions that the hunt
ing was fine. To tell the truth of
the matter, all the hunting they in
dulged in was to hunt for their two
mules, which had the habit of get
ting lost every day.

ADVERTISING MEN
PLAN CONVENTION
Arrangements Made for Meet
ing of Coast Organization
in Coming June

The annual convention of the Pacific
Coast advertising mems association. TO
be held in this city next June, was the
main topic of discussion at the weekly
luncheon of the San Francisco adver-
tising mems organization at the Hotel
Stewart yesterday afternoon The ten
tative plans suggested and discussed at
previous meetings of the association
were brought to a focus on a practical
working basis. The serious nature of
the work proposed, the elaborate char
acter of the program for the convention
and the comprehensive schemes for
publicity for the Panama Pacific in
ternational exposition in 1915 were
thoroughly discussed
NO previous endeavor to bring to-
gether the allied advertising interests

enthusiastic support. The Advertising
exhibition, which has developed into
one of the notable features of the com
ing convention. was discussed at great
length. j. Charles Green spoke TO

il years. In February, 1899. r. A. VIII
son and his son, George B. Wilson. filed
declaratory statement on the north
west quarter of section 10, township IA,
Lewis county, and about. two years
later Wilson conceived the idea of OBJ
tanning title TO 1,040 acres of coal lands
in the vicinity. Various declaratory
statements were filed by other members
of the Wilson family and legal action
was Instituted toward obtaining title.
FILE ON MANY CLAIMS
Half dozen members of the Wilson
family filed claims. Then they sought
to buy the land from the government,
and in order to raise the necessary
funds they interested P. c. Richardson
of Seattle, who invested $500, and the
Wilson's and Richardson organized the
Sterling coal company. The claims were
commuted and the land office was paid
for 800 acres of land. The Wilson's, ac-
ccrding to sworn testimony, put the
money received from Richardson to
their own use and, after meeting In
Portland, held there because the Ster-
ling company was an Oregon corpora
tion, and attended only by R. A. Wilson
and George Wilson. another company,
called the Wilson coal land company,
was formed, which left Richardson out
in the cold.
Richardson entered suit against the
Sterling company for his share, but the
action was dismissed in 1906 by Judge
Hanford on the ground that the Ster-
ling company was an illegal combina-
tion. 1t was held that combination
made by individuals to acquire coal
lands in excess of 800 acres for an asso-
citation is unlawful and any patents OBJ
tanned through such means are inVand
and can be Cancelled by the government
in a suit in equity.
The government officials investigated
the whole case, held up the negotla-
tions pending for the requirement OF
title to the remainder of the 1,o4e acres
and eventually entered suit for the re-
coverY of the original $50 acres.

OF HUMBUGGING
Legislative Council Opposed

WASHINGTON, Jan. 26.-The fact
that the bill providing for the creation
of an Alaskan legislative council to be
appointed by the president, recently re-
ported from the senate committee on
territories. will not have an easy road
was made manifest when the measure
was under consideration in the senate
today.
Before Senator Beveridge could have
it read he was compelled to answer a
volume of questions and also to meet
a number of criticisms as to the merits
of the bill.
The principal objection was based on
the provision for the appointment of
member of the proposed council by
the president. The prevailing opinion
of senator's who spoke seemed to be
that election would be preferable, but
by some there was objection to any
legislation.
The opposition to the bill in its pres
ent form was voiced by Clark of wy
oming, Clarke of Arkansas. Borah of
Idaho, Frazier of Tennessee and Craw-
ford of South Dakota. The bill was
championed by Beveridge and Piles

CHARGES PRESIDENT
WITH HAVING LOBBY
Accusation Brought by Alaska
Delegate Against Executive
and His Predecessor
Judge Wickersl1am Is Rebuked
by Beveridge for Attacking
Roosevelt and Taft

WASHINGTON. Jan. 26.-Charges by
Judge wickersham. delegate from
Alaska, that President Taft and former
President Roosevelt had maintained in
Washington an Alaskan lobby in the
persons of former Governor w. B.
Hoggatt and Major W. P. Richardson,
head of the Alaskan road commission,
are revealed by proofs made public to-
day of an executive hearing before the
senate committee on territories in re-
lation to the Alaskan Legislative coun-
ell bill.
Before an official stenographer was
admitted to the hearing Wickersham
was called to order by Senator Beve-
ridge, chairman Of the committee, and
more care.
REBUKE FOR DELEGATE
After the Alaskan delegate had re-
tired a portion of his testimony was
considered and it was decided that 1t
should not appear in the printed rec
ord Chairman Beveridge said to the
committee:
"A witness would not be permitted to
make such reflection upon motives of
the president of the United States in
any committee of which l was chair
man, even IL that office were hlle0 by
William Jennings Bryan or a prohibi-
ZIONIST or a socialist"
Wickersham had charged that certain
legislation furthered by Major Richard
son and Hoggatt was in the interest of
the Guggenheims, and that the presi-
dent and former president were respon-
sible for their presence in Washington
as lobbyists for the measures.
Wickersham charged also that Hog
gait was head lobbyist for the Gug-
genheims, while being paid salary as
governor"
ACCUSED OF HUMBUGGING
Hoggatt followed Wickersham as a
witness and was asked by Senator
Clarke of Arkansas if he knew why
Wickersham had charged him with
being lobbyist.
Judge Wickersham has probably not
felt very kindly toward me since he
resigned as judge of the United States
court in Alaska rather than face
charges which / was prepared to make
to the president if the judge had not
decided that he had best resign" re-
sponded Hoggatt.
Have you any counter suggestion to
make-that Wickersham is interested
in lobbying for any particular in
terest?' continued Clarke.

it. He is not lobbying. He is just
