A decision was handed down
Wednesday in the federal court at
San Francisco in favor of Bertha

tional Bank of d. .. Mills & Co.,
for the full amount If S47I9 with
interest. The history Of the case

Mrs Smith was a resident of To-
nopah and went to Sacramento on
a visit. While there she informed
the cashier of the d. o. Mills bank
that she wished to draw upon her
bank account in the Nye & Ormsby
County bank and presented draft.
The money. after being secured
was to have been left on deposit iL
the Sacramento institution. The
Sacramento bank sent the draft to
the Washoe County bank in this
city which in turn sent it to the
TOnopah bank for collection and
return. The draft was paid by
crediting the .Washoe County bank
with the amount and charging it to
Mrs. Smith as against her account.
On the following day the Nye &
Ormsby County bank suspended
and the account was wiped out the

CONSISTENT GOV. WILSON

Woodrow Wilson is one public
man who tries to live up to his
ideals.
He has advocated the nominal
tion of candidates for all Offices by
popular vote; he forced the estab-
lishment Of the primary system in
New Jersy and he insisted upon the
enforcement of the principle even
against his owl immediate inter-
ests.
AS a rule, the first thing a can
didate for president seeks is in
dorsement by tue state convention
of his party. This offer the gov
crnor in the convention at Trenton
declined when it was offered.
Such compliment was no tempta-
tion to Wilson, when he deemed it
inconsistent with the legislation he
had supported.
Governor Wilson is refreshingly
frank; hr has nothing to conceal
and speaks his mind without fear
of criticism or misrepresentation.
He asked his overzealous friends
not to pass the resolution present
ing him as a candidate for the
presi Dental nomination. He does
not conceal his ambition. an am.
bitiun that any man may honorahly
cherish. He will welcome the in
dorscment of his state for the high
est office in the gift of the Ameri-
can people, but he wants it to come
not through a convention, but
through the primaries by vote of
tho people. That will be an indorse-
ment well worth having, proof of
appreciation Of his services. vote
of confidence that counts. Balti-

MUCH MONEY COMING West

Some idea Of the flood of money
which sweeps westward over this

rency.
This total exceeds the amount
shipped last year by half million
and measures up to the best of any
past year. Every year this grain
movement is the sign for easier
times in the northwest. When the
farmers begin to sell their wheat
then everything feels the impetus
Of the loosened money and business

AURORA MINES

1t is said on good authority that
the Tonopah Mining company has
made the first payment on the
Aurora group of claims and will
commence active development of
the same in the near future. II is
asid the first payment of $50. 900

ground. In the early '6Os and up
To 81, these mines were worked
continuously ard many milliors
dollars taken from them and
added to the worlds output of the
precious metals. When the mines
closed 1t was on account of the
excessive cost of pumping the
water from the lower leves. At
that time steam was the power.
Today there IS an abundance of
electric power, the wires passing
through the town of Aurora and
on to Fairview and Wonder. The
mining engineers who have leen
sampling and develop ling tie
property for the past two years
find that there is an abundance of
low grade gold ore that can be
mined aud milled for about 81 per
ton and that the known ore bodies
will keep 100 stamps dropping for

EARLY RAILROAD FL|ERS

When the first passenger rail-

from one end of the line to the
Jther. distance of twelve miles,
in two hours. And Wood, one of
the best known writer's on the sub.
ject of railroads at that day, wrote
as follows:
Nothing can do more harm to
the adoption Of railways than the
promulgation of such nonsense as
that we shall see locomotives trav-
cling at the rate of twelve miles
an hour" Today. with locomotives
travelling at the rate of seventy
five miles an hour one can look at

amusement. In 1929 a locomotive
was introduced in this country. and

This afternoon. upon The appli-

Attorney Callahan, Judge Ducker

TRAINER to be brought back from
the state penitentiary at Carson To
have his trial set under indict-
ment No. 2 against him. for the
murder of Mrs Quilici at Inlay OH
January 6 last.
The order directs the warden of
the State penitentiary to deliver
TRAINER to the custody of the
sheriff of Humboldt county ana
for the latter to keep him in
custody until after the trial is set
and other matters disposed of
which require the presence of
TRAINER.
TRAINER is in state prison under
a life sentence, he having been con-
victcd in Reno a few months ago
for the mu' der Of Jean Quillici.
He will be brought back from Car

trial for murder will be set.

RATE QUESTION
is NOT SETTLED

Contrary tC the imp, ession given
by the first reports as to the action
of the commerce court on Nevada
freight rates. the effect of the
recent denial of injunction has not
so broad bearing as is expected
from later ruling when the
Spokane. Reno and Phoenix cases
will be taken up specifically.
While the ruling has encouraged
the Nevada railroad commission,
they still wait with great interest
the ouctome- of the courts con.
81 leration of the Reno case, which
is expected now with very little
delay.
Commissioner j. F. Shaughnessy
of the railroad commission, speak
ing last night on the present
ruling. explained the situation as
follows:
"The order made has more
bearing on the Utah case than on
the Reno case and relates specifi-
cally TO the former. The only way
in which Nevada is mentioned is
in prohibiting dissemination in
favor Of Pacific coast points in
fixing the Utah rates. The in
junction asked for against the
order of the interstate commerce
commission was denied and the
rates will go into effect November
Is so far as any injunction is con-
cerned, but we must wait for the
decision on the Spokane, Reno and
Phoenix cases before we know we
are out of the woods.
in these last three the points
are nearly identical and the
strongest showing and contest has
been made on these.
"When the decision of the COM
morce court on the points relating
to Nevada is handed down, it canlbe
easily recognized because it will be
referred to as the Reno case the
Spokane case and the Phoenix
case 1t will also receive the
larger share of attention than the
decisions already handed down
because it will be of greater inn
portance and wider scope.
''The Nevada commission has
received word from Professor
Thurtell who was formerly a
member Of the commission. and
who is now an examiner for the
inter state commerce commission
that the remaining decisions
affecting Nevada and Reno par
ticularly,smay be expected without
delay" Reno Journal.
