WHAT DOES IT MEAN?

For the past week the entire army,
as well as the navy of the United
States, has been modelling on the
Mexican border and in the seas ad-
~jacent to that country. The Wash
ington administration claims that it
is simply an army maneuver, but in
unofficial circles it is stated that the
government has inside information of
the probable collapse of the Diaz ad-
ministration and is preparing to pro-
tect American interests in the south
ern republic.
For the past three years occasional
rumors have reached this country of
the weakness of the Diaz dynasty, but
these were so vehemently denied that
little credence was given them. From
the press accounts of this last revolu-
tion it looks as though the insurgents
had much the better of the situation
and that their ultimate success was as
sured.
President Diaz, who has ruled the
country as absolutely as a czar for
many years, is now an old man, and
apparently credible advices are to the
effect that he cannot live but for q
few weeks, at best. Should he die, the
revolution will undoubtedly have a
speedy termination, and should he live
for a year or more, it is probable that
his government would be overturned.
The government of the United
States is in a position to know the
exact status of affairs in Mexico and
evidently now has the situation well in
hand. Should the revolution fail, the
mobilization of the army on the Mexi-
can frontier will be only an army
maneuver. but should it succeed, the
troops will OPPORTUNITY be on hand to
protect American interests and to take
such other action as may be deemed
proper.

NEVADA NEEDS A RESCUE CAR

Within the past week miners, mine
operators and mining investors who
have been in the vicinity Of Tonopah
realize the advantage of having a res
cue car within easy call for emergen-
cies. Great loss of life may be spared
by prompt attendance of the govern
ment force which should be authorized
by congress to extend the full bene-
fits of the service to the State of
Nevada, whose mining interests are
expanding at a rate surprising all
other states. With a relief car sta
toned at Sparks, the nearest division
headquarters of the Southern Pacific,
which may be regarded as the local
point of the mining industry, any dis
trict could be reached within a few
hours after the arlarm had been SCUM
ded. On the west would be Virginia
City, with it's millions Of feet of tim
bered workings, on the east the mines
of Humboldt and Elko counties, and
ON the south the whole desert country,
including Rawhide, Luning, Nina,
Tonopah, Goldfeld and Ryolite. Then
there are the two revived camps of
Fairview and Wonder, which promise
to give employment to several hundred
miners in each instance. They are
situated on the Fallon branch Of the
Southern Pacific and within easy stage
distance Of the railroads to come with
in scope Of the rescue corps. The new
district in Inyo county, California,
would be within twelve hours reach
of the rescuers owing to the broad
guaging of the Owens lake line to Los
Angeles which will render all the
country embraced in the eastern end
Of California tributary to the central
mated that at least 5000 miners are
employed in this territory which should
certainly command some attention
from the bureau of mines. A suggest
ion that the station of the car should
be established at Salt Lake is not
tenable for the reason that Utah is
within easy call of Rock Springs which
now is the headquarters of the car and
from which quick service may be OBJ
tanned for Utah points.
Nevada is great enough and has
sufficient diversity of mining and
enough miners within her borders to
justify the government in making
special provisions for this section

whether the ~$1-a-hundred pounds
rate established by the interstate
commerce commission ON California
lemon shipments between California
and the east is c~onfscatory is the ques-
ton that is being considered by the
new United States court in

Whether the rate is confiscatory is
the meat of the whole controversy,
and whether a given rate is reason

the court. An announcement to this
effect was made by Judge Mack.

BIG BUSINESS PROBE
Committee on Interstate Commerce
Begins Hearings Which Will Have
Important Bearing on Future lesis
lation-May Eliminate reason able
From Court Decision.

Washington. Nov. l5.--The senate
committee on Interstate commerce to-
day entered on series OF hearings
which are expected 10 have an import
ant bearing on future legislation re-
iating to big business" and COM
mercc between the states.
Senator. Ncwlan6s. OF Nevada, WAS
the first witness on the list and his
testimony was expected 10 deal eS-
clusively with his bill providing for an
Interstate trade commission. It was
understood. however. that the senator,
who is a member cs the committee,
would be expected to proceed only un-
til other witnesses were available.
The committee is authorized to enter
on the broadest scope OF II quiry COW
ering the entire subject Of interstate
commerce. The authorization had Its
Inception largely In the supreme court
decisions OF the Standard Oil case
which had the effect OF reading the
word reasonable into the anti-trusi
law.
