Land Slavery in Russia.

Leo Tolstoy. In the Forum :
People say that land is property, ana
they say this because the government rec
ognizes private property in land. But
fifty years ago the government upheld
private property in human beings. Yet
a time came when 1T was admitted that
human beings cannot he private property!
and the government ceased to hold them
To be property. So IT will he With prop

holds that property and protects it by its
power but a day will come when the
government will cease to acknowledged
this kind OF property and will abolish it,.
The government will have to abolish it..
because private property in land Is just
such an injustice as property in men--
serfdom--rsed to be. The difference lies
only in the fact that serfdom was a di-
rect, definite slavery. while land slavery
is indirect and indefinite. Then Peter was

43 MILES ON SOLID SALT.
Wonders of New Railroad From Salt
Lake City to San Francisco.

From Lesie's Weekly.
At many points on the line of the new
Western Pacific railroad from Salt Lake
City to San Francisco there was not room
enough in the canon for both river and
railroad and solid walls of masonry had
to be built to carry the tracks above the
stream.
AT other points the sharp curves in the
canon have sent the tracks back and
forth from one side to the other on steel
bridges and high trestles. In building
the line material and workmen frequently
had to be let down the sides of the canon
by ropes hundreds of feet in length to
start construction on new sections
Wagon roads are everywhere impossible
At last after endless turnings and twists
in fighting Its way through $50 miles of
the canon the tracks come out into the
broad valley at Oroville, over which for
countless ages the Feather river has
poured debris from it's mountain fast
nesses.
So much gold did the river bring down
that the soil down to the solid bedrock is
being dug up by dredges and washed for
its gold Large tracts of land given over
to olives. oranges and other fruits are
being now torn to pieces in the ceaseless
hunt for gold, which is being found in
ginning to rival in their wealth the pio-
neers in the gold fields of the state.
In contrast to this long stretch of canon
scenery is the great salt desert through
which the new road runs after leaving
Salt Lake City. This desert is sixty miles
long and fifteen miles wide, composed of
rock salt 81 per cent pure.
Right through the center of ii the en-
gineers of the road ran their lines, and
for forty-six miles there is not curve in
the tracks. The ties are laid on q bed of
solid salt two or three feet above the
level OF the plain. The salt looks like
field of fee and snow and it is difficult for
the traveller to realize that his train is not
passing through wintry scene Of the far
north.

tainly of him who owns the land Peter
requires i'm order to feed himself and his
family. And not only is land slavery
just AZ unjust and cruel slavery as
serfdom used to be, ii is even harder on
the slaves and more criminal on the part
of the shareholders. For under serfdom,
IL not from sympathy then at least from
self-intereSt the owner was obliged to see
to it that his serf did not wither away
and die of want. hut to the best of his
ability and understanding he looked after
his slaves morality Now the land owner
cares nothing If his Iandiess slave with
ers away or becomes dencralzed, for he
knows that however many men die or
become deprased at his work he will
always be able TO find workmen.

ABSENCE OF
JUDGE CAUSES
MUCH TALK

Rumor has it that Judge Averill
will not return to Tonopah before
the latter part OF this month. In
the parlance of printerdom, he has
Jumped his cases without putting
on a sub, and the only difference
between the Judge and the printer
is that the former is still drawing
his $1,000, and when the latter
goes away his salary quits with
his services.
Quite little comment has been
caused by the duration OF the Judge
Averill's absence, as there is much
business in this county that could
be attended to. and in case of in
functions being asked for, the resi-
dents Of this section would be put
to some Inconvenience.

DECISION IS
RENDERED IN
Haywood CASE
JUDGE FRENCH HANDS DOWN a
DECISION ON DEMURRER
BY COUNTY.

The case of H. d. Haywood VS..
Nye county for salary as justice
of the peace, which was argued
and submitted before Judge l.. NJ,
French in this city on a demurrer,
has been handed down by that
judge in a decision which was sent
in by mail. Judge French sus-
tains the demurrer and gives the
plaintiff 30 days in which TO file
an amended complaint. The COM
missioners contended that the law
reads that a justice of the peace
can be paid any sum not to exceed
$3.50 and that it was in their pow
er to pay less than that amount in
case the services rendered were not
worth the limit placed by the law
The Iiaintiff Is suing the county
for the full salary of $3.50 while
acting as justice of the peace for
Manhattan for the year 1910, and
on the result of this suit will de-
pend whether others of a like ma
ture will be brought against the
county, The total of the salaries in
dispute will approximate close to
