that Lord Baltimore Is not lame, and
I'll let the judges name the veter-
inurians."
Charles Wilson, driving for Albert
u. Vanderbilt. also was positive Lord
Baltimore had nothing the matter
with him.
There were two bad spills this aft
ernoon and one this morning, but no-
body was seriously injured.
1t was announced that Louis w.
Winans of Brighton, England, has sold
Kentucky futurity winner, Slice,
by Moko-SillciOn, to John f.. Madden,
from whom Mr., Winans bought him.
Madden would not name the price
he paid, but said 1t was "a few thou
sands more than | got for him" That
price was $4,000. Under the
Winans. Slice established a mark of
2:0S IA over a ~five-furlong track In
Austria, and IT was that performance
that decided Madden to buy him back.

MINING AND POLITICS
Mining Record)

Some of the troubles which municipal utility corporations complain of,
big mining companies whose properties lie close to a city Of sol Importance.
1t is often urged by traction, lighting n water companies MAJ tey are
forced into politics by the politicians themselves, and a similar situation may
confront the management of large mining companies, such as the Amalgamat-
ed of Butte, tor example. 1t would appear that the Goldfeld Consolidated has
complaints 10 make OF this score. The outside world would scarcely be aware
of the matter, if a occasional interview did not crop out, such as hat which
George Wingfeld is said to have given a few days ago at Goldheld. When
the president oft the Consolidated remarked that the mining company could
get along without Goldfeld better than Goldfeld could get along wrthout the
Consolidated, it became apparent that local politics and local industry we're
not IN the best of terms.
1t would appear that MI. Wingfeld considers it difficult to get a jury to
convict persons charged with "highgrading" at the Consolidated Mines
because a certain prejudice has been inSiled inoth he minds II the cuzen by
politicians Who the politicians are is Of n o consequence. 1T is Jus te
old story that IN hears n the large cities: the public hi 1t IN Tor" me
traction company. This sounds familiar, n those who are interested N
mining cannot avoid regretng the appearance IT this antagonism between
a large producing company and any section If the community. 1t often M
pens that the corporation is insoent toward the peoples rights, and it may
be that Consolidated is not without fault. 1t would seem that the opponents
of the mining company have the best of the argument when it is urged that
the Consolidated transferred its milling interests to a second corporation IN
order to reduce its state bullion tax
Mr. Wingfedfs remedy, suggested in his interview, is oe hat would
doubtless increase the tension and end with forcing the Consolidated TO dp
into politics for a certainty. The remedy is the establishment of a company
town and supply houses for the use of it's employees; that is to compete with
the Gold6ed merchants in their W territory; to punish them fr sdlng
with poitrians who criicise the mining company. And ma good WON'T

MANHATTAN Will
HAVE WIRELESS

A. G. Raycraft, president of the Dex-
ter company, arrived in camp on We'd
nesday and is stopping at his quarters
in the Dexter building, says the Man
haitian Mail. While in Manhattan this
time Mr.. Raycraft will perfect the
installation of the apparatus for his
wireless telegraph station, and it Is
likely that within a very short time
messages will be flashing between here
and the station at Tonopah. At tie lat
ter camp the instruments have been in
stalled and the staff erected, and mes
@ sent out with the hope OF getting
in communication with some of the
wireless stations on the coast. AT Ton
opah MI. Raycraft encountered cohsid-
cradle trouble with an are at the sub
station of the power company near his
home, and it is believed that the dis
patches were arrested there. After an
investigation is made, and this proves
to be the case, the Tonopah station
will be removed to some more remote
part of the town. In Manhattan the
apparatus and staff have been in place
several months, but no messages were
dispatched, as the station at Tonopah
was not in readiness to receive mes
sages.
Mr.. Raycraft believes hat his instru-
ments are capable of transmitting
about 500 miles, and states that mes
sages sent from thu coast can be picked
M here. The local Office of the wireless
is in the Dexter building, on the second
floor. Mr.. Raycraft is an old-time tele-
~grapher and is quite handy with the
keys.

Although only a small force OF men

derful results have been accomplished
by Richard A. Millick, who has hao

a property that will shortly develop

The grand jury did not find any fault
with him for not having turned over

place.
Now Jack Owens has skipped out
and the county is stuck again. Dis
trict Attorney Cleve Baker is bring
ing suit against his bondsmen for
$2944.44, the amount still due the
county on the old shortage. And the
grand jury has already discovered a
new shortage of between 10000 and
$4,000. AS stated, an indictment will
no doubt be returned in a day or two.
Thus does Nye county get the hook
met more. And the question arises:
"'Who is to blames"
Certainly there should be some pro-
lection for the taxpayers of the coun-
ty. The county auditor is supposed TO
check up the sheriff's office ono in a
while, and the county commissioners
are supposed to check up all the officers
once a month.
Is Nye county so lousy with money
that a shortage of $4,000 is passed
over without a comment9
The last information as to the
whereabouts of the sheriff came from
Seattle a couple of days ago. District
Attorney Baker has notified the U. S.
