NEW DEPOT At M'G|LL
IS OPEN TO PUBLIC

The MeGill officials of the Nevada
Northern railway will move into
their new quarters at the COM
modious and modern depot at McGill
tomorrow morning. at which time the
new station will be thrown open TO
the public.
II Is one of the attractive buildings
overlooking the circle 0f handsome
quarters provided by the company
for the officials as we'll as the staff
quarters below. IL will also compare
well with the new building wherein
the men are to find reeeation and in
struction and which is situated at the
lower end of the company's grounds
The MeGill station was completed
Wednesday last and will be one of
the first of the structures on which
will rest the eyes of those entering
the smelter town. 1t is situated
above and a little northeast of the
former depot. Those having charge
of the building of the pretty and at
traetive station evidently We're not
stinted in the desire to serve the
aesthetic as we'll s the useful, pur-
poses for which such a building is
provided for the travelling public.
If the Steptoe Valley Smelter com
pany shall decide to join the grounds
of the railroad with their own i'm
provements and extend the whole
into a lawn from the upper reach of
the railroad to the road below. there
will be every opportunity of greatly
beautifying the scene of the great
smelter and its accompanying concen-
traitor
The depot is 97x3O feet and
contains two waiting rooms and all
modern conyenienees. The various
Offices, together with the waiting
rooms. the ticket Office, the telegraph
and the freight Offices, are so ar
ranged as not to interfere with each
other.
The arrangement of the offices
are such that the ticket agent can
serve the purchasers of tickets from
each waiting room. The express of
flee Is near the center of the station
and separated from the other
Offices. The freight room takes in
the south side of the building and
therein has been provided a cold
storage apartment for the perishable
freight. Electric lights will be pro-
yided throughout the station, and
also steam heat, and everything is
of the best pattern and quality so as
to make the depot one of the best in
the state.

as a broncho-buster made him per-
haps acquainted with the worst side
of the provision for tor that which
ruins both Indian and white man
alike. Should that which brought
about his untimely death compel the
appointment of those whose duty 1t
shall be to enforce the laws which
are plainly violated every day it may
be that this additional death shall not
have proved to be in vain. The dead
man was young in years. Consider
ing his skill and boldness with horses
and the prizes won, 1t will not be
hard to imagine that his death was
an untimely one, for his healthful-
ness would have been naturally sub
served by the character of his life,
according to nature. He was a skill
ed trailer and always helpful when
employed to track criminals.

Pope Yeatman, managing director
of the Guggenheim interests, and c.
B. Lakenan, general manager of the
Guggenheim mining and smelling
holdings in this district, arrived from
the west on Friday nights train and
went to the mines on the early train
yesterday morning and spent several
hours looking over the workings on
the hill, after which they went to
McGill, where they inspected the
plant. Mr.. Yeatman is on one of his
regular trips of inspection and the
same will be completed this evening,
when Messrs. Yeatman and Lakenan

INDIAN FRANK DEAD.
Remains Were Given Christian Burial
ON Thursday Morning.

"One-eyed" Frank is dead. He was
a well known Indian and suffered
from the effect of contact with the
so-ealled civilization of the white
people. He died at the county hos
pital on Wednesday morning after
great suffering. The funeral services
we're held in the undertaking parlors
of Nevin e. Graham. and the mourn
ers were the people of his own tribe.
The reading of the Episcopal ritual
by the Rev. George c. Hunting over
the remains, as well as the committal
ceremony at the grave, were evidence
of the willingness of the white man
to give decent burial to the Indian,
for whom apparently no provision Is
made to give the instruction that he
needs for life.
The men and woman of the Indian
tribe followed the remains to the
silent place of the dead and what
they thought of the Happy hunting
gounds," to which presumably the
dead Indian had passed, history say
eth not. All was done for the In
dian neighbor that would have been
done for the best of the white people,
"One-eyed" Frank was well
known Indian among us, He was
born and raised on the McGill ranch

DO YOUR CHRISTMAS
SHOPPING EARLY.

That the people of the dis Z
. trict intend to do their Christ Z
mas shopping early this year is Z
indicated by the manner in Z
which buying of the past week Z
has increased. The stores have Z
been well patronized by those Z
seeking Christmas novelties as Z
well as more elaborate articles Z
and it may be said that the Z
Christmas buying is underway. Z
This Is as IL should be, for it Z
, will be found far more satisfac- a
tory not only to the merchants Z
and the clerks, but for the pur- Z
ehasers, as 1t enables them to Z
, make their selections more Z
carefully and under conditions Z
more pleasant than generally Z
encountered when the buying Is I
, postponed to a time when the Z
, stores are crowded and little Z
opportunity afforded to examine Z
} articles in the different lines Z
when stocks are reduced and Z
clerks have more than they can Z

from the Nevada Consolidated of

such an offer. and presumes that the
rumor was due to the fact that par
ties had asked him If he would con-

The Last Knockout.

'Jem" Mace, heavyweight of Eng
land, and veteran of more than 500
prize-fights, died of old age in his sew.
enty-ninth year. He was survivor
of the age of pug!lism when men
fought in the ring with their bare fists
and there was little argument over
the Marquis of Queensbury's rules or
the rights to the moving picture con-
Germs. Although he had amassed a
fortune OF about a million dollars at
one time, it went as it came. and old
age found him dependent upon his
friends. However, though he was
financially bankrupt, he was not phys
ically SO. His death removes the last

1t Was a Mistake.

DR.. Frederick A. Cook, the explorer
who has been hiding for about a year
has come to light in an article in a
magazine. in which he confesses thai
he does not know whether he reached
the North Pole or not. He says that
he will return to the United States
about Christmas so that he will get
here at another joyful time. This
time he is begging the people of the
world to read his magazine article and
give his case thorough thought before
condemning him, which seems useless.
His story deals with the psychology
OF the adventures on the trip and he
says that he was laboring under {
delusion when he returned to this
country from the exploring trip. He
claims that the trials that ne had un
dergone on the expedition were re-
sponsible for lapse of memory, and
when he had been applauded and
crowned with laurel wreaths. that he
lost his head. He says that laborins
under a hallucination, he had imag-
ined that he had really reached the
North Pole Thus the people had been
tricked.

He Saws Be a knocker.

To the Editor Of the University Missourian;
Don't knock, boost" is a popular
slogan in America. 1t expresses the
splendid optimism that has made our
country, but there is more poetry than
truth in it.
The knocker was knocked before
man knew anything about hammers.
He was hated and criticised because
he attacked existing institutions. The
path of least resistance is the most
popular road of life.
Franklin, Henry, and Washington
were knockers" but they were largely
responsible for the existence of the
United States as a nation.
Wherever man is fighting for lib
erty and happiness is found the
knocker" at the head, willing to sac
rifice himself that his fellow-man may
be benefited.

ADVERTISE THE UNIVERSITY

The Christmas holidays are only a
short while off and it is time some
plans were being made for advertising
the University while the students are
at home. Last year many of the county
clubs arranged programs which were
given at the high schools. Some gave
University banners or pictures of the
University. Others had dinners or
receptions for senior classes.
" This advertising is effective. 1t
brings the University closer to the
people back home" than all the
pamphlets one could send out in a
year. 1t arouses the desire in the
high school boys and girls to become
members of group representing the
University. The University songs
and yells stir them as almost moth
ing else can do.
The people back home" expect the
students to have something to say
about the University. They'll listen.

The SUGAR Trust.

The governments suit against the
Sugar Trust which was filed in the
United States Circuit Court at New
York this week marks the final step
in the campaign against that organi
zatiOn which by the recent exposures
has appeared openly before the pub
lie as one of the most criminal insti-
tutions that has been allowed to exist
this long in open violation of the Sher-
man Act. Its open violation of this
act has not been the most serious
crime that this organization has COM
mitted-it has not even hesitated to
try frauds on the customs by the use
of false scales and weights.
A corporation that would resort tc
such means as these to defraud should
be dissolved, but the Sugar Trust may.

BACK TO COLUMBIA

Back to Columbia" will be the slo-
gan when the Thanksgiving games are
played in this city. 1t will be heard
from the alumni and the parents of
the students who have any interest in
football. Putting aside all question
as to whether it is better to play the
game here or in Kansas City, one ele-
ment will be pronounced-that of
gathering of the University clans The
stadium at Kansas City has no tradi-
tions yet, and the city itself is free
from all college day memories.
In large measure it will be the
traditions and rememberances of for
mer days that the students Of old will
want to revive when they come back
to the college town. This will be a
sad and a glad time for those that
return. Old faces will have passed
away, old landmarks will have been
erased, and old sights that greeted the
student in former years will have been
wiped out.
On the other hand there will be sat
isfactiOn of the feeling that demands
to see the Alma Mater. Only those
who have spent four years at college
can know what it means to come back
and revive the old memories.
In this sense the game will be es-
sentially a college game and outside
influences will be largely eliminated.

shipping, putting ones. self at the mer-
cy of the railroad and express compan-
les, the expense would be greater.
The burden OF supporting all institu-
tions would be directly upon the shoul-
ders Of the buyers, and if the eff,
cheney of schools, roads. courts, and
the like. were not decreased, the ulti-
mate consumers would soon be break
ing forth with strenuous objections to
the increased taxation. Such a sys-
TEN would destroy towns, except the
very large cities, make railway SER
vice poor, and cause the movement
toward the use of improved methods
and machinery to sink into degener-
alton.
Such would be the case if every
buyer would give his trade to the mail
order concerns, and, plainly, if few
buyers do this, they take advantage
of their neighbors, their townspeiple.
They do an economic harm to their
community by putting their money
out of circulation in their own COM
munity. The efforts of the merchants
of any town TO be of service to that
town. by keeping goods on hand which
may be obtained by customers quickly
and conveniently, deserve to have the
support of the citizens of that com
munity. His interests are identical
with the best interest of the commit
nifty, while the mail order firm cares
absolutely nothing about community
affairs and does nothing whatever to-
ward helping solve problems which
confront it.

"THAT MAN BREWER"

The University OF Missouri wei
comes a new director of athletics.
Prof. Chester L. Brewer, formerly of
the Michigan Agricultural College, has
begun the direction OF the athletic
activities of this institution. Missouri
welcomes him not only because it has
felt the need of a director this year
but because much has been heard of
that man Brewer"
Professor Brewer was pretty well
known at the University of Missouri
last week. And he was liked There
were few students who didn't know
that he was a football coach, that his
team had not lost game on the home
field in eight years, and that it held
Michigan to a 3-to-0 score this year.
But much more than this-he is known
as man who put the highest moral
standards into his players and play
inh, without being called molly

been to win, but he has been against
any unfair or ungentlemanly methods.

SUPPORT THE LOCAL DEALERS

There is of course, no doubt in the
minds of the local merchants that the
mail order establishment is an evil.
1t is difficult sometimes, however. to
get the buyer to take this view. He
figures that he can save money by
sending to the mail-order house for
his goods, and, in a certain measure,
this is true. If he sacrifices time.
and his good standing with the mer-
chants of his town he may be able.
to save few cents on his purchase.
But that is because he takes an ad-
vantage, and an unfair advantage, of
his neighbors and town merchants.
Suppose the buyer is farmer. How
much does any mail-order house con-
tribute in the way of taxes toward
keeping up the many institutions of
any community? What kind of q
market does the mail-order house of.
fer for any of the farm products? How
much does the mail-order merchant
give toward the preachers salary, the

Low Grades.

To the Editor Of the University Mi.soarisn:
Unless the fears and predictions of
many students are groundless, this
semester is likely to be a banner one
,or low grades. Students who have
always stood high in their classes, as
well as the weaker ones, are already
worrying over the possibility of get
ting "T' or ''F'' grades. This ten
dency toward encouragement is
largely the result Of the many inter-
ruptions of class work this semester.
Three long intermissions in such close
succession is unusual and tends to put
the students ''up in the air." M.
