S|MMONSOF RENO
FOR RAILROAD
COMMISSION
- UNANIMOUS SELECTION OF
BOARD FOR PLACE MADE
VACANT BY RESIGNATION OF
MIR. THURTELL.

w. II. Simmons of Reno, has been
appointed member of the Nevada
Railroad Commission to succeed
Henry E. Thurtell, who resigned a
short time ago to become examiner
for the Interstate Commerce Comm
mission. The appointment was made
Monday by the commission board
consisting of Governor Oddie, Lieu
tenant Governor Ross and Attorney
Genera Baker, the appointee being
the unanimous choice of the board
for the place. J. F. Shaughnessy was
appointed for another term on the
commission, the present one having
just expired. The latter selection
was also a unanimous action on the
part of the board.
Mr.. Simmons has been a resident
of the state for several years, having
located at Reno, where he establish
ed the Reno Grocery company, the
only wholesale grocery house in Me-
vada and who enjoys an extensive
acquaintance throughout the state.
He has been president of the Reno
Commercial Club for a considerable
period of time and in this capacity
has rendered valuable service to the
people of Nevada in connection with
the fight for more equitable freight
rates. He has been a student OF
railroad problems for many years,
is we'll versed in all matters pertain
ing thereto and will therefore make
valuable member of the commits
sion.
The appointment of Mr.. Simmons
was entirely due to the action of his
friends who placed his name before
the board and urged his fitness and
qualifications as their reason for so
doing. Mr.. Simmons made no per-
sonal effort to secure the position,
the duties of which he has already
assumed. That his selection will give
statewide satisfaction there is no
doubt Likewise, the reappointmento of
Mr.. Shaughnessy will be acceptable as
in line with good judgment as well
as keeping faith with party promises
to the effect that no change would be
made in the perconnel of the board.
When interviewed concerning his
appointment Mr.. Simmons said:
Il accept with pleasure and / wish
to thank the many friends who SO
heartily urged my appointment. l
] shall do the best | can to preserve
the best traditions of the commission,
and shall at all times be found on the
firing line, doing what l can to OBJ
tain relief for Nevada from any In
iquitous conditions that may exist
and which may come under the pro-
vince of the railroad commission. |
also wish to say that | am particular
ly pleased that Mr.. Shaughnessy has
been reappointed for | recognize him
as one of the valuable men of the
commission. There was also the
question of political parties keeping
faith, and accordingly his reappoint-
ment is one that will give satisfac-
tion to every good sitizen."

SUPPOSED HE WAS CITIZEN.

Peter Aultman of Lane City, has
applied at the county clerks office
for naturalization papers, with A. A.
Marshall and T. II. Sillyman as wit
nesses. Mr.. Aultman is a native of
Bavaria, but for the past twenty
years has taken active part in the
political affairs of Utah and Nevada
having voted and enjoyed the privil-
eges of citizenship in this district
since the year 1901. Only recently it
became known the laws of the United
States still held him to be a foreigner
and when the matter was brought to
the attention of Mr.. Aultman 1t was
learned that he was of the opinion
that he was a full fiedged citizen, and
now has taken steps to perfect his
title as such.

erted its efforts toward securing the
seven-day service. which has un-
doubtedly FASTENED the management
to favorable decision and the early
date upon which the service will go
into effect.
The new service will mean an out
going and incoming Sunday mail and
express that will be of much con-
venience and benefit to the business
men. The travelling public will well
come the change as it will enable
them to go and come without the
loss of an additional days time. 1t
will also obyiate the necessity of
strangers having to LAY over day
at Cobre owing to the fact that they
arrived at the junction point Satur-
day afternoon or Sunday without the
knowledge that there was no train on
the first day of the week.
The new service will mean more
business, more travel and more con-
yenience for everybody.

AWAIT DECISION Of SUPREME COURT

upon the mercy of the court, asking
that the judges point out the way in
which corporate business can be con-
ducted without infringing on the law.
Western students of the situation in
touch with eastern market author
tiles, have been urged to keep off
until these cases are disposed of, and
coppers and other issues at seemingly
attractive points all down the line
are severely let alone.
There is little wonder, Therefore,
that copper and steel circles are fol-
lowing these big cases with keen at
tention. The loosening of purse
strings they believe, will bring un-
paralleled consumption of copper and
IA to 15-eent metal.
A favorable decision means raising
stock prices. and as usual under these
the big fellows have
the stock which the little fellows will
proceed to buy.
