TECHNICAL ITY IN NEW
Law BAR TO GAMBLERS

The Nevada gamblers have just
awakened to realization that they
have been made victim of a
statutory joke, tor even the code
has hunor CT its own.
1t was planned by the Reno
coterie that they would frame a
petition for a knockout" of the
an:i-gambling law and q petition
had been prepared as a legal
means to the end. The gamblers
proposed to Immediately place this
petition in circulation and obtain
the required number of signatures
before the summer was ended.
Some little money was expended
on the preliminaries and arrange
ments were made to disburse lot
more, but. to the surprise and
grief of the combination, some. one
discovered yesterday that the time
limit for filing such documents,
after the proper number of
signatures has been obtained, is
four months be fore election or
earlier.
With the passing of July 4th the
opportunity also passed.
This leaves the anti-gambling
crowd in undisputed possession of
the field.-Reno Gazette.

The horses he was driving became

As TO MINING EXPERTS

1t is not known what the mining
experts lave done to Will C.
Higgins, but in his column in the
Salt Lake Mining Review he
touches them up in the following
entertaining fashion:
Some experts are born, some
are made, and some are turned
out by colleges and universities, "
continued the prospector But il
is only the ones who are horn that
are any good The rest of them
become famous for the many good
mines they turn down 1t was the
made-to-order expert that turned
down Tombstone in the early days
1t was the same order of duck ling
that passed up the Silver King
mine in Arizona, and the United
Verde in the same state. The
same nifty fellows condemned
Cripple Creek, Tonopah and Gold
field; and, even now, they are
swarming over the country spoil
ing big mining deals and losing
big money for their clients; and
it is a Wonder, Judging from the
black eyes so many mining districts
are getting from them every year,
that the industry keeps up its lick
so we'll and that so many new
mines are developed into big pro.
ducers and dividend-payers. OF

man with mills in his shoes and a

and he will tell you that it is the
man who works in the mine, who
broke the first ore from the out
crop, and who knows the formation
like book, that is the real expert
And he will tell you also that it as
an Intelligent MINER and not an
expert. who induced Senator
Clark to buy the United Verde
that it was the success of leasers
which prevailed upon Philadelphia
capital to inv st in Tonopah, and
that it was a grizzly prospector
who first commended Guldfeld
prospects to eastern capitalists;
and that all of these mines have
made good, Notwithstanding the
fact that buyers were duly warned
