Crazy Man on
the Desert

Ragged and dirty, with a long flow
ing beard and with bare feet, an old
man having a wild appearance, was
AXE by Matt Blundell and Herb de
Reamer Sunday. while they were
searching for lost cattle. They state
that the old man carried a long stick
and acted as if he was insane. When
they questioned him he said that he
had lived near spring, but where the
spring is located he failed to say. An
effort will be made to find the old
man again, and if he is insane he will
be placed in the asylum.-Standard

WELLS FARGO RAISES
EXPRESS CHARGES
A Chance for the Railroad Com
mission to get Busy

Every once in a while some nervs
highwayman steps i'll front OF stage
and demands that the Wells Fargo
box be tossed out. If he has the
right kind OF drop on the driver and
the messenger out comes the box.
Occasionally a robber holds up q
train and after dynamitng Wells
Fargo gets sack of coin He is pur-
the other and as rule winds up in
prison Fargo keeps a lot of gum.
shoe men on hand for such work.
The other side of the question Is
different When Wells Fargo wants
an additional bit of coin from the pco-
pie they simply announce raise in
rates There is nothing to do but
pay. The people have no gumshoe
men to run this class of robbery
down There is no mask used, it is
simply case of stand and deliver
without a chance of ever getting your
coin back.
Last week Fargo notified the
butchers III this city that a raise OF
Is cents per hundred pounds would
be exacted on fish shipped from the
Coast The merchant has to stand for
it. and he in turn has to take it out of
the customers and consumers. 10

the purchase price. Fargo makes no

SENATOR NEWLANDS
OFFERS WORK SCHEME
Would Have Early Action on ali
Pending Legislation

WASHINGTON, May lS.-Sena
tor Newlands Of Nevada, to-day ex-
pressed himself upon matters Of leg
islation which needed attention al
this extra session of Congress.
He suggests a reduction Of about
thirty million dollars annually in the
appropriations for the army and the
navy to be made in a lump sum in
stead of being segregated in the ap-
preparation bills, leaving it to appro
pirate boads in the army and navy,
under the direction of the resident to
scale the reductions This led TO an
interesting debate on methods of
the appropriation committees.
Senator Newlands urged Demo
Gratis and progressive Republicans
to get together on measures about
which they agree and to pass the
most urgent at once, and to set com
mittees at work on others and have
them ready for action early next ses
sion. Among measures demanding
immediate attention, he included the
tariff with an increase in the corpor-
alton tax to make good any deficit
caused by tariff reduction: reduction
of military and navy expenditures;
publicity of campaign receipts before
election of United States
Senators by popular vote; and admis
sion of Arizona and New Mexico to
statehood
Among measures which he suggest
ed for early action for next session
we're:
Physical valuation and control of
stock and bond issues OF railroads by
Interstate Commerce Commission,
which he said was demanded by the
public and could not in common hon

During the past couple OF years the
Western Union has been making
concessions to the p ople. Rates
have been cut and the corporation is
catering for business. The Postal Is
doing the same They both give bet
ter service and are getting a better
and larger business as a result.
Not so with Wells Fargo. This
set of highwaymen without masks
take an extra fall out OF the people
on every turn, and in the meantime
furnish coin from the people to hight
the postal pracel problem The few
concession that have come have been
wrung from this bunch of money
grabbcrs by hard work on the part Of
empowered commissions.
At the same time Fargo is side
stepping its taxes. 1t is fighting the
raise on taxes in the courts, and put
ting the state and the pconle to
greater expense.
If it were possible to line up the
heads of this usurping concern, the
people would pounce on them and
either get portion of their money
back or there would be the sorriest
looking lot OF corporation highway
men that ever decorated a hospital.
The Railroad Commission and the
Interstate Commerce Commission has
had better turn its undivided atten-
tion to this corporate leach.

OYSTERS ARE CHEAP.
Twenty-Five Boats at Wharves With
1900 Bushels Aboard.

The supply of oysters aboard the ves-
sells at the wharves is quite large and
the oysters can be bought at very low
figures. This morning there were
twenty-five boats, large and small, at
the wharf with oysters aboard from
river and bay points, and 1t is esti-
mated that the fleet had aboard fully
5000 bushels of the bivalves. which are
selling as low as 30 cents bushel
and from that price they range upward
to about 20 cents a bushel for selected
stock. The unseasonably warm wealth
er Of the past week has had a depress-
ing effect on the market, but the oys-
termen say that it does not account
for all the dullness in the trade. which
is very unusual at this time. The
coming Of cold weather is expected to
put life in the market. and the Christ
mas trade will come next week, when
a small advance in prices at the wharf
market is looked for. The supply of
fish being received by the dealers is
good and prices are at low figure.
