ONCE WEALTHY. DIES POOR.

Louis Burkhardt. formerly !
porter in Dugan's dance hall and
commonly known among his com.
rades on the street as Dutch,
died about9 o'clock last night al
the county hospital with an ag-
gravated attack of delirium
tremens.
The unfortunate man had been
in perfect helpl ass condition for
more than three weeks, and his
death had been expected at almost
any time since he was taken for
treatment to the hospital. Burk-
hardt had suffered much during
the last ten days and. died In awful
agony.
Burkhart has been q resident of
Ely for about four years and gen
orally followed the occupation of
saloon porter. He chad been an
inyeterate drinker for about ten
years and become more addicted to
the habit during his residence in
this vicinity.
During the early days of Port
land, Oregon Burkhardt owned the
largest wholesale drug store in
that city and was recognized as
one of the wealthiest men in that
community. A disastrous fire which
swept away the entire city more
than twenty years ago wasted
Burkhardt's fortune and left him
without resources.
This marked the beginning of
Burkhart's down fall. He after
wards came to Nevada and settled
in Elko, where he, followed the
trade of a painter and paperhanger
for about ten years. lie was
married in Elko, but his wife lived
with him for only a few years.
Burkhart spent about year in
Eureka, and drifted into the Ely
district during the boom days.
Burkhardt's remains were taken
to the undertaking parlors of
Nevin and Graham last night,
where they will be prepared for
burial. The funeral will occur to
morrow at the expense of the
coun ty. Interment will be in the
Ely cemetery.-Ely Expositor.

guaranteeing profits to certain Bic
undertakings and interest. whether
they were wisely. justly. honestly
conducted or not.
The republican party has been
in turn supported by these inter
ests. A parternship has sprung up
which no man can reasonably hope
to see broken by the republicans,
1t 10 futile to expect this party to
undo the mischief it has dane; to
tear down the trusts it has fost-
cred. The democratic party is
free from such alliances. Its
principle. ally is with the people
and it is free to serve them.
"The republican party. as it ex-
lists and as is controlled today, is
inextricably entangled with special
interests. These interests are
practically guaranteed. under the
terms of the present tariff law, a
certain profit on their busine. s
understandings. Through histor-
ical circumstances, the republican
party and these great interests
have become partners. 1t is a
partnership. which the present con-
troll of the republican party could
not disestablish, even if it so de-
sired.
ALSO through historical cir
cumstances and a consciousness.
sometimes vague. of our princi-
Piles, we democrats have kept from
this connection. Sometimes we
have stumbled and strayed and
sometimes members of the party
have entertained vagaries now put
behind. Under the shadow and
protection of this partnership with
those who have. been long in con-
troll of the federal government,
great corporate interests have
made combinations to control the
OUTPUT of products, and through
this control of products, to fix
prices. When demand has declined,
instead of lowering prices. these
combinations have closed mills and
reduced production. Thus they
have maintained an almost auto.
matte control over the level of
prices in the reservoir enclosed
by the tariff walls.
TO break up this alliance be-
tween the government and private
business is the democratic op-
portunity. The advantages big
business has enjoyed in it's partner
ship with the republican party it
has not shared with the great bu Tx
of our people. The man of
moderate income and. in moderate
circumstances who is neither
working man in the narrow sense
of earning his living with his hands,
nor yet a capitalist living upon an
assured income from investments
has suffered. He has felt the
INEQUALITIES of the tariff and the
injustice of the alliance between
corporate interests and the respon-
sible managers of the republican
party.
The Insurgency in the republi-
can party which 'has become so
widespread grew out Of the tariff
and more particularly out of the
manner of the making of the
present tariff law. This revolt in
the rank and file of the republican
party as | interpret it grows out
OF feeling of disgust for, the
alliance which the leaders Of that
party have made with great
business interests"

s,IoorINc INA CHURCH.

Carter Lingerielt, moonshiner, was
shot to death Saturday afternoon in
Mount Pisgah Church. about seven
miles from Blue Ridge. Ga, by the
Rev William Kimmo, a Baptist
minister. Rev. Mr.. Kimmo was aided
in the fight by his two brothers, both
OF whom are preachers, and one OF
them seriously wounded by Linder-
felt
A conference OF the congregation on
the Christmas exercises was being held
in the church, when Lingerfelt broke
down the door, entered and threatened
to kill the preachers.
Lingecfelt had previously threatened
to run the three ministers out OF the
county-if il they continued to preach
against moonshining. The Kimmos
continued their crusade, from various
pulpits against the illegal manufacture
and sale OF whisky, and when Linger-
felt appeared they we're ready for him.
As soon as Lingerfelt drew his pistol
the three brothers opened fire, and Lin
gerfelt fell, pierced by half dozen
bullets, but not before, however, he
had fired three shots himself, wound
ing Rev. II. w. Kimmo seriously. The
preachers fired from the pulpit, and
Lngerfelt was killed just inside the
church door. Panic prevailed during
the shooting, many OF the women
fainting, and men crawled under the
benches.
At the time the tragedy was being
enacted big still operated by Linger-
felt was being destroyed by Deputy
Collector Hopkins, within a stones
throw of the church.

KENTUCKY,s CHRISTMAS FATAL
tiles.

The bloodlest record in Kentucky
for Christmas holidays is believed to
have been established this Christmas.
Ten killed have been reported, and a
score or more have been seriously in
jured in the mountain districts OF the
state in pistol fights. So far no reports
have been received from Breathitt,
which, it is anticipated, will swell the
number by at least three or four.
At Monticello, KY, Luther Weaver
was shot and instantly killed by James
Goldberry. They we're attending a
Christmas dinner Saturday when they
engaged in a difficulty, and the shoot
ing followed.
One man was killed, three probably
fatally injured, and several slightly
wounded IN a general fight at Christ
mas dance at the home of Cradderock
WnIoughby in Montgomery county
Saturday night. Twenty-Five persons
engaged in the fight, which followed a
quarrel between two OF the men.
William Willoughby was shot and
killed, and his brother, Cradderock
WilIougby, and two other men whose
names have not been learned may die
from their wounds.
At Columbia 16-year-old son OF
George Creider was found dead in Il
field near his home. He had gone out
hunting earlier in the day with four or
five companions and tits not known how
he came to his death. The other boys
have not been found.
At Darlington Marion Lodge and
Town Marshal Handy killed each
other in a street fight The two men
had not been on friendly terms, aud
when they meet on the street they be-
gan firing at each other. Each died
within a few hours of the other
At Greensboro Mack" Fuel is dead
and Marshal Tom Sampson is dying as
the result OF street fight. The former
was shooting on the street when the
marshal tried to disarm him. Fuel be-
gan firing on the marshal, who return

A GOOD THING FOR THE
fARSfIZRS

Every progressive farmer should be
interested and should try to attend the
winter course for practical farmers
which is to be held at the Virginia
Polytechnic Institute this winter. Be-
ginning as it does on January 16, 1911
when the farmer has more time than at
any other period Of the year and last
ing only one month, it seems to us that
it would be possible for nearly every
enterprising farmer to attend. The
course consists OF morning lectures and
afternoon demonstrations covering i'm
proved dairy processes, modern orchard
treatment with the packing and ship
ping OF fruit, construction Of silos and
the cutting and storing OF silage, i'm
proved methods of corn culture, in
cluding corn breeding and judging the
study of live stock, including stock
Judging, and the study of the various
plant diseases and protection from
pests, etc.
As the cost Of this course, exclusive
of railroad fare, need not exceed $25,
it is certainly within the reach OF every
one. For details address the Virginia
Polytechnic Institute Blacksburg, Va.
