Office Eaidi1o In China

Tn some respects the Chinese ap. pear to have distinct advantages ovcl us. For instance, when Chinese pub He office holder has failed 10 give satisfaction in his ohiceholdine- when he has shown that he is the wrong man in the right plaee-he is invited to commit suicide, so that 9 better servant of the people may sue ceed him The request is not mere formaiity. When it Is made in the. proper way and backed by a proper express lon Of public opinion 1t has all the force of decision of the supreme court The man who is condemned has no escape save flight. and if he runs away his family Is forever dis graced and degraded.
 If we could import this Chinese GUS tom there would undoubtedly be 8 great improvement in the general business of office holding. It would make undertaking almost unneces sary, and senatorial investigations would becoma obsolete. Moreover. i' wodld give the office a real chance to seek the man. The task of the voter would be simplfied, because there would cease to be multirlicty of candidates for each office Ii the Chi nese system could be adopted with out the accompaniment of the piSta1l 1t might be worth trying.

BA|L|FFS WRECK
STORE To CETS15
Millinery Shop Is Invaded by
Courts Collectors and Much
Stock Damaged.

Mrs. J. Springer, rs Whitehall street.
is bitter today in her denunciations of
the justice court system which Atlanta
has tried SO long to eliminate and
which may eventually be abolished
through q municipal court. Two bail
ifs from Justice Jacksons tribunal
had invaded her millinery store and
torn more than 500 worth of willow
pumes and trimmings from the cases
to satisfy claim of SIS, of which Mrs.
Springer declares she had no knowl-
edge.
The raid on the store occurred dur
ing the absence of Mr.. and Mrs.
Springer, while the store was in the
charge of several young women clerks.
When Mrs. Springer returned she
found the saleswomen weeping hys-
tedcally and the store looked like q
wreck The bailiffs had ruined goods
amounting to many ines the value of
the alleged debt she says
Il don't know why this outrage
should have been committed" said
Mrs Springer. The bailiff from Judge
Jackson s court called up my husband
on the telephone and said Mr.. Springer
owed them SIS. He was very rough
and wanted the money right then and
wouldn't explain what 1t was for.
ut was only a little time after that
We got the telephone message that they
we're in the store and taking out our
things They had said they would
move the whole store unless they got
the money. l never felt so bad about
anything in my life that they should
humiliate US and take our goods off in
a dray. without even giving us the
chance to make bond or do anything
It certainly Is an outrage"

'Grubstaked' in 1903, No,u Senator
MAKES MILLIONS ON 5000

RENO, June 2S.-There is more or
less romance in the appointment by
Governor Tasker l., Oddie of Nevada
of George Wingfield, of Reno, friend
and business associate of the late Sen
ator George s. Nixon as United States
senator to serve until the meeting of
the legislature in January 1918 At
that time the legislature will elect a
successor to complete the unexpired
term, which extends until March, 1917
The appointment was expected.
Senator Wingfield, now known as the
richest man in Nevada, was a cowboy
in the southern part of the state when
Tonopah first acquired prominence as
a mining camp in 1908. He rode into
the boom camp, where 81 bought moth
ing more to eat than a plate of pork
and beans. with $12 In his pocket
The late Senator George s. Nixon
was then a clerk in a Tonopah bank
and grubstaked Wingheld, according to
popularity accepted stories, to 5000. Five
years later Wingfield was rated a mill
lionaire and today is estimated to be
worth between $12,00OO0O and 100000,
900. The greatest single factor in his
financial success has been his control
of Col 1field Consolidated.
Became Partners.
Within few weeks after Nixon had
loaned the 5000, Wingfield rendered him
the principal, and with 1t interest in
the sum of $4,000 representing half the
profits in a mining venture. Nixon told
him to keep the $4,000 and use it for
his (Nixon's) interest. The partnership
thus formed endured for six years.
Investments and speculations involv-
ing hundreds of thousands of dollars of
capital were carried on independently
by the partners, and often neither knew
of deal the other was conducting until
its elimination Their partnership,
which never was based upon any writ
ten agreement, was terminated in 1909,
with both men wealthy.
Nixon looked over the banking end
of their business, including the j. S.
Cook bank at Goldfeld. through which
the greater part Of the tremendous
wealth produced by that camp passed.
Wingfeld, scraping together all his
available cash and extending his credit
to the uttermost took over their min
ing claims, including Goldf1eld Con

for worked out ground, Wingfield
sank 2 new shaft, and S75 feet down
crossed the original rich lode and took
out $4,000 in the first hour.
Winjyfield then went East to finance
the property for more extensive devel-
opment, and not only secured the
money he sought, but retained absolute
control of the property.
When a man high in Wall Street af-
fairs was suggested as president of the
company, with the question You will

going to Nevada as cowboy and pros
