LOyETT VISITS NEVADA.

Judge r. S. Lovett, president of
The Hartman lines. was the CUES. of
Reno for a brief time on last Tues
day morning. Ii was the first oc-
easion he had had of meeting some
of the Nevada people, and the meet
ing augurs will for the future well
fare of not only Reno and its SUR
roundings, but for the entire state.
Speaking of the double tracking of
the Hartman system from the Mis-
souri, river to the Pacific coast, the
president stated that the work was
to be commenced Immediately and
completed in five years; that the
first work would in all probability
be inaugurated in this state. He is
quoted further as saying:

encountered native copper in the
crosscut, but none OF the metal has
been shown in Ely. On the other
hand the rich ore of the Ely Consoli-
dated has been much in evidence.
The find in the Boston Ely may
lead to picking up the continuation
of the Alpha ore body of the Giroux;
at any rate it will demonstrate the
theory of Thomas F. Cole with re-
gard to finding large bodies of ore
in the limestone formation. And
this is what has been done in the
Zack shaft of the Ely Consolidated.
The ore in the south drift is sulphide,
being found In the porphyry. and the
rich ore occurs in the contact be-
tween the porphyry and the lime
stone. This augurs well for the
finding of ore on the porphyry-
limestone contact in the property of
the Giroux Consolidated. and the
contact is traced for a mile and a
half.
Another thing which makes the
strike in the Zaek of importance
outside of its boundaries. is the fact
that the lack adjoins the Tiptop No.
2 claim of the Ely Central. and the
ore is making into that ground. With
the troubles of Ely Central settled
there Is a chance for a mine il the
southeastern part of the estate as
well as the promise of the showings
in the Eureka and Clipper workings.

TWO MILES MORE OF ORE.

Two strikes we're made in the dis.
triet during the week. the impor
lance of which cannot be oyeresti.
mated. While the encountering oil
ore in the Emma shaft OF the Boston
Ely Is In too early a stage of deyel-
opment TO determine what will be the
result OF the find, 1t has been proven
that the ore zone extends one mile
to the northwest. On the other hand
In the lack shaft of the Ely consoli-
dated they have opened up a body Of
ore rich In ~carbonafes. gray copper
and copper glance. In the south
drift Of the 500-foot level they have
$50 feet Of sulphide ore which
9yerages three per cent, in the west
rift they have gone through 80
set Of ore averaging six per cent;
and in this drift have broken into
e rich ore, some OF which assays
g high as so per cent copper.
The Jack shaft lies a mile to the
foutheast Of the Copper Flat pit,
ith the ground of the Ely Central
ing between. The Zack claim ad-
',ins the Tiptop No. 2 claim of the
y Central with the rich ore max
ing into the latter ground. No ore
Of commercial value has been de-
veIoped In this part of Ely Central;
so that the find In the Zack shows
the extension of the ore zone for a
mile to the southeast. This with the
increases the width OF the zone just
two miles.
This is the most encouraging news
in the district since the opening up
OF the Copper Flat steam shovel pit:
and IL will attract attention TO the
copper mines and further POSSIBLE
ties of the camp from the outside.
Now right at this time, the seventh
section of the big concentration at
McGill has been set in operation,
meaning an output from the pit of
at least. an additional 1000 IONS of
ore a day. Ii has been announced
that by the first of April. the four
units of the concentrate will be in
motion, the big mill then running at
full blast, meaning the treatment of
10000 tons Of ore a day. This means
the manufacture of more copper, the
expenditure of more money for
labor; a larger payroll, both at Nc
Gill and the mines; more money for
the entire district. And then, there

the practices and conduct of the stat,
courts. This raised a hurricane O
oratory and a cyclone of interview
from the lawyers of the state, thu
majority Of whom opposed all in
quiry into so sacred a thing as tns
supreme court. In the midst of thi.
wordy turmoil. the decision Of tbs
supreme court was handed down,
and the world closed to Ruef fol-
fourteen long years.
There seems no escape for Ruei
from the penalty which the court
has imposed upon him. He has him
self surrendered to the inevitable,
and in passing spoke of the life 80
full Of promise which had gone OUT
with the sentence; but added that ii
vas nothing compared with the
anguish and suffering which he had
brought to those who love him best
of all things on earth. What an end
to a career so full of promise; but
no one but the man himself is TO
blame. Endowed with greater facul-
ties than those allotted 10 the
average man, he used his knowledge
and brilliant brain in the lowest. in
stead Of the highest channels in the
pursuit Of money and power. 1t was
because that Ruef was the brilliant
man that he was hat the court i'm
posed upon him the severest sentence
the law provides.
Ruef had in his time named
judges. even to the high position of
the supreme bench; many a nan had
he got OFF from well merited penal
ties of the law; but when his own
trial came, he was powerless to use
the agencies Of the past, and he was
convicted of bribery and sentenced
to prison. There is a great object
lesson in all this; one to be taken 10
heart by the rising young man as
well as the ambitious politician.
Stripped OF all the moral
obligations owed to society, it pays
TO be honest. Here was a nan raised
10 the highest position in his home
city. He had money and power
without stint, and vas enyied by
many. Men there were who would
have nothing to do with Ruef on
account of his we'll known character
istics; many there were in all walks
of life who were finally obliged to
go TO him for favors. He was
courted and fattered and received as
an equal by men who once had
spurned him. He made them pay
for their s%purning.
Once a Republican he broke from
the ranks because he could not get
what he deemed proper recognition.
The union labor party was then
aborning, and he got behind the
party with Eugene Schmitz for
mayor. He elected his mayor as
well as others on the ticket, and the
'curley-headed" boss was the new
agency In politics which had TO be
dealt with. Three times he elected
Schmitz, the last time electing every
man he put on the ticket. Money
poured into him from all quarters.
No project which needed the aid OF
the supervisors and the mayor to
make It effective escaped the rapac-
ious nav OF Ruef. The fittings
from the business world, from the
corporations. from the saloon keep
ers. from the scarlet women, from
the Chinese and white gamblers, ran
the boss exehequer up into the mil
lions. and the end of 1t all is a strip
ed suit and fourteen years OF hard
labor in prison.

of Nevada. No one Is more eager
than /. The resources OF this eoun-
try justify our immense expenditure
for betterments. We should De
given a square deal in our efforts 10
develop your state"
A change of heart has come to the
people of Reno; or perhaps it is tina;
more progressive and further seeing
people are now in command Of the
situation, since the time when their
methods drove the Southern Pacific
out Of Reno and made that fair city
a whistling station on a transconti-
mental line. Ii was deemed quite
the proper thing when they swooped
down upon the cars OF the company
for taxes; and to hold up the CON-
pany when they wanted an entrance
and a division terminal for their
line. 1t was the Southern Pacific
which wanted these fayors, and II
was the habit in those days of stand
ing up a corporation wherever the
opportunity offered.
The result was that Sparks was
created and made the end of the di-
vision; the round house and the rail
road shops were built there; and too
late. Reno saw the mistake that had
been made. Instead of the money
Of labor flowing into the business
channels OF Nevada's metropolis. the
merchants of Reno must send
special ears out to Sparks on Satur-
day nights to bring in the people
and their money. When the Com
mereial Club was formed there we're
old residents of the town who arose
in their wrath and opposed anything
like progress. declaring that what
was good enough for them 40 years
ago was good enough for the new
corners; and one banker stated hat
Reno did not want any more people
in Reno.
Reno is the metropolis of Nevada,
and everybody who has any interest
in the welfare of the state, wants TO
see Reno a fionrishing city; a city of
manufactures; a city of commercial
industry and activity; and not one
dependant for the existence of its
merchants and its lawyers upon the
misfortunes or immortality of the
get-divorce-quick people. This does
not apply to all lawyers in Reno,
for there are men there proud
of the ethics of their profession. men
who condemn most severely the
happy go lucky methods of the di-
vorce courts and laws. But it is up
to the people of Reno to get rid OF
her fossils and mossbacks who stand
in the way of progress; to take the
reins in their own hands.
The Southern Pacific has done
more than any other agency in
building up this state and the west;
and it is going to do more in the FIX
penditure of large sums OF money
for betterments. Ely would welcome
the advent of the Southern Pacific
through this district, for We Xiv
to us. In the words of the president
of the Hartman lines, all the rail
road asks for is a square deal; and
IL begins TO look as If the eyes of the
people of Nevada were opened to the
fact that il is better policy to meet
the railroad on business and com
nonsense lines than to holler their
heads off in approving voiee-thunder
at the mouthings of the d~emagogue.
The demagogue gets you nothing;
the railroad opens up and expands
your state and gives you opportuni-
ties which 1t is up to you to take ad-
vantage.
