OF course, there are reasons for peo-
pie in Gary claiming they saw the
comet.
Gary celebrated its going wet by a
procession and a celebration. 1t was
superfuous. Gary, while nominally I'M
der prohibition, hasn't been able to pro-
duce a single case of man who oied
of thirst.-Chicago Daily News
The Daily News Photographer must
have used the scissors on The Inter
Ocean account of Gary going wet. The
only procession in Gary on Monday
night was The Inter-Ocean's reporter
who covered the whole sidewalk and
station.
Poor little old Newton county had de-
cided not to enter a candidate for joint
representative. Its really time that
Newton was deserving a little recog-
milton from Lake.
Don't try to drink it all up your
self. Take few ckses to the loved
ones at home.
So many reports have come from the
county seat that the Seaman line is to
be built at once, that the last one looks
like a dying CULVER to the people OF
Gary
There are still some interesting mo-
ments in store for the Gary blind
pig proprietors at Crown Point.
One Gary man could not get enough
last night before the bars closed al
IL o'clock. so he started to rub the
| contents of a glass of beer on his head
| for hair tonic.
| Up to the hour going to press nothing
has been seen of the Gary lid.

WILL
CONTEST BAKERS ELECTION

That George Springmeyer would con
test the election of Cleve H. Baker, for
the office Of attorney general, was the
statement made this morning by Theo-
dore Tobish, who managed Spring
meyers campaign in the recent elec-
tion Tobish was passenger on the
northbound train, and was en- route
from Goldfield to Carson City, where
he will start the contest proceedings.
The final count, as announced on
Monday by the secretary of state,
shows Springmeyer to be 65 votes be-
hind Baker. The contest will probably
call for recount of the votes cast in
Washoe, Esmeralda, Nye and Clark
counties, although the entire ballot
from every county may be counted.
The expense of the recount will have
to be met by Springmeyer, and the
work will be done by the secretary Of
state.
1t is now thought that J. w. Legate,
who was defeated by Josephs for the
office of clerk of the supreme court by
IL votes, will also demand a recount,
now that Springmeyer has taken the
initiative.
Both Springmeyer and Legate were
candidates on the Republican ticket

CHFFOO DEAL TO BE
CLOSED This WEEK

j. l.. Workman, the man who added
materially to the wealth of the world
by the discovery of National, came in
from camp last evening in his auto,
making the run in less than four
hours. When asked for a confirmation
of the reported sale of the Chefoo
claim to George Holleran, Mr.. Work
man replied:
"Mr. Holleran was in National last
week and made thorough inspection
of the Chefoo property. Wishing to
buy the claim, an agreement was en-
tered into between Holleran and my
self, which was not reduced to writ
ing, owing to the fact that there was
no attorney in camp, and there was no
cash payment. I shall leave for Reno
on No. this evening for the purpose
of meeting Mr.. Holleran, and if he is
still of the same mind, the deal will
go through.
'The Chefoo is showing up better
with every days work. For some time
past / have had two men working on
the property. From the last round of
shots Sunday they took out ore which
assayed 1000 ounces in silver and

TO OPEN MINERAL LANDS
OF SPOKANE RESERVATION

SPOKANE, Wash, Dec. 27.-Vet-
eran prospectors predict that the
most imorptant miners rush in the
history of the northwest will follow
the passage of bill at this session of
congress, opening to entry the miner
al lands of the Spokane Indian reser-
walton, northwest of this city. United
States Senator Wesley l.. Jones, of
Washington, who introduced the bill,
advises the Spokane chamber of com
merce that its adoption now seems as
sured.
More than 25 syndicates have been
formed in Spokane in anticipation of
the passage of the bill, and, as soon
as il becomes a law by the signature of
President Taft, several hundred pros
pectors will be rushed into the district
to stake claims.
Enormous deposits of silver, copper
and tungsten have been traced across
the boundaries of the reserve, part of
which was opened to homesteaders last
spring, and at one time development
work was under way on 20 claims,
whent he prospectors were elected by
agents in the employ of the United
States government.
Senator Jones' bill provided that
from and after the passage of this
act any lands of the Spokane Indian
reservation, classified and reserved
as timber lands under any act of con-
igress heretofore passed, shall be open
to exploration, location, occupation
and purchase under the mining laws Of
the United States.
L. K Armstrong, of Spokane, sec
retary of the Western Conservation
association, who interested Senator
Jones in the new measure, declares
that the timber and mineral provisions
were purposely left out of the original
act opening the reservation, adding
that, while the responsibility has not
been fixed, he believes it was brought
about by some one friendly to the
Indian bureau.

LOCAL Jim THE
PENMAN' IN Tolls

Early last week an itinerant stenog-
rapher, calling himself Guy w. Bar
mum, struck town and opened offices.
He was given temporary employment
by Attorney IL. Warren and proved
himself to be a capable man in his line
of work Saturday. evidently unable
to stand prosperity, Barnum donned
his war paint and started out to con-
sumo all the whisky in town. Before
he had gone far he run out of money,
but that was a trifling incident to a
man of his talents. Securing a bunch
of blank checks, he filed out a number
of them for various small amounts,
forging the signature of his former en-
ployer in so clever manner that he
succeeded in passing a number of them
on business men who were perfectly
familiar with Mr.. Warren signature.
Barnum finally presented one of the
bogus checks to a man who knew Mr..
Warren had been out of town for sew
eral days, and his arrest speedily fol-
lowed. He will be given preliminary
examination before Judge Robins to-
morrow morning.
