NEVADA LEADS
IN PRODUCTION
MINERAL OUTPUT AMOUNTED
TO S4O,I~o,OOO DURING 1910,
AND DIVIDENDS FOR SAME
PERIOD OVER 10000 600.

The production of gold, silver and
copper in the state of Nevada during
the veal just ended is estimated to
have been $40, 521 600 and dividends
have been paid amounting to SILL
409,616. In addition to this, divi-
dends amounting to about $1,000
900 more have been declared, which
will be paid during the next 80 days.
This record, at least SC far as divi-
dens are concerned, placed Nevada
at the head of all the states and ter
ritories of the United States. while
it is possible that the production of
the three metals will make it head
the list in that regard also.
Following is the estimated produe-
ton of the state by counties: Esmer-
aida, s13.311,0 900; Nye, $9,525, 900;
White Pine, $4,000, 600; Eureka,

$4,000; Washoe. $4,000; Douglas,
$4,000. Total. $40,521,0 600.
Following is the amount of divi-
dends paid, exclusive of the million
dollars declared. but not yet dis
tributed: Goldfeld Consolidated

In commenting on this magnificent
showing, Fred l.. Miner say in the
Goldfeld Tribune:
Nevada's mining interests have
shown consistent and remarkable
progress during the year 1910. which
has just drawn TO a close. Prosper

DRASTIC FEATURES OF
AUTHORIZATION BILL
ESMERALDA COUNTY ASSEMBLY
MAN WILL INTRODUCE BILL
TO PREVENT CORRUPT PRAC-
TICE IN FUTURE ELECTIONS.

Assemblyman-elect Emory j. Arm
old. of Goldfield, is preparing a bill
to present to the state legislature
at the coming session which will be
known as a eurrupt practice act. 1t
aims to prevent any form of evil
practice tending to corrupt the cleo
crate and prevent an honest and
fair decision at the poILs of the peo-
pie at primary and general elections.
1t is along the lines of the Oregon
law which has worked so well in
practice, and, also. the corrupt prac-
tiee act passed at the recent election
in Illinois by such an immense popu-
lar vote.
1t limits campaign expenses be-
fore primary election to Is per cent
OF the candidates salary and before
the general election TO 10 per cent
of his salary, but provides a means
outside of this allowance by which
each candidate may reach every yot-
err in the county, district or state,
as the case may be, in a printed
pamphlet, limited in size and num-
Der of pages, which shall be printed
by the state printing office and dis
tributed by the secretary of state
and county clerks at a fixed price per
page. depending upon the office
sought.
II provides that all candidates for
office shall publish a statement of
campaign expenses; provides that
moneys spent by friends or relatives
shall be considered as spent by the
candidate himself; prohibits treating

votes; prohibits hauling voters to or

vides hal no person shall demand or
solicit any candidate to subscribe to
support of any club or organization.
to buy tickets to any entertainment
or ball, or to subscribe or pay for
space In any book, program. periodi-
cal or other publication.
The bill provides penalties for the
violation of its provisions ranging
from jail sentence to $1,000 fine or
both and to three years confinement
in the state ~penitentiary.
Mr.. Arnold Is also preparing a bill
to prohibit miscegenation or mesal-
lance, aiming primarily to prevent
the intermarriage of Japs, and whites
in the state of Nevada.

OUEUELEsS CH|NKS BY
EO|CT FROM THRONE
CELESTIAL EMPIRE TAKES
STEPS FORWARD AND As A
RESULT WILL HAVE HAIR FOR
SALE FOR SOMETIME.

In conformity to ali edict from the
Chinese thrown, issued some time
ago, the male citizens of the Chinese
empire to the number of some 200.-
000, 900, are now cutting off their
queues. The hair cutting began a
week or two ago, and 1t Is expected
the job will be finished in a few
weeks, say the Tonopah Bonanza.
This is a step in the reform and
progressive programme adopted in the
Celestial empire. The wearing of
the queue was imposed upon the ma
tive Chinese by their Manchu con-
querors when the present Manchu
dynasty assumed power and the
throne. All male .fhinese were to
wear the queue TO distinguish him
from the Manchus; 1t must be worn
through life. and the only excuse for
Its absence was sickness. such as
typhoid, which would cause the hair
to fall out. As the Chinks thought
IL better to cut off the hair than to
have the entire head incised. the
edict was complied with religiously.
And now. to show that the Chink IL
just as good as anybody else. he
needn't wear the queue: in fact. he
can wear his hair in any old fashion
he pleases.
But just think what a glut there is
going to be In the hair market. Sup
posing that each queue will weigh,
on an average, two pounds. here is
four hundred million pounds of
human hair unloaded on the hair
market at once. or course the Chin
csc product is coarse in texture, and
will hardly conform to the require
ments of my lady's coffure (Which is
mainly supplied from the ranks of
the peasant girls of France and Ger
many.) but 1t will meet so much of
the demand that dealers i'm hair
goods r somewhat alarmed at the
prospect. There is enough hair in
this present Chinese clip to stuff
every hair mattress in the United
States and then some.
But the needs of dealers In a mer-
camille commodity cannot be expect
ed to stand in the way of a great re-
form such as this. This is the &
of the queueless Chink.

stead laws, according to the circular
for 1910. Previous circulars have
contained a clause excluding a mar
ried woman from entry except in
these states which give woman a
right TO acquire and hold title to
lands as feminine sole.
In the new circular the clause is
cut out entirely. This law was felt
to be unjust since II made It possible
for married women in some states to
acquire land which women In the
same circumstances in other states
were denied. She now has equal
chance with her unmarried sister. or
her husband or brother, for taking

she in other ways fulhlls the home

circular provides that IA months of
