NO LAW PROHIBITING
THE SALE OF kBSINTHE

U. S. District Attorney Sam
Plat has writter the following
letter to the Carson Appeal, deny
ing that the sale OF absinthe is
now prohibited by law:
My attention has been called
to certain newspaper articles
published in the State to the effect
that by a recent enactment of
Congress the sale of absintIe is
TOW prohibited throughout the
United States The general circu-
lation Of this IumOr has given
rise to many inquiries from liquor
dealers DESTROYS of being informed
as 20 the law. | should be grateful
for your aid il the retraction Of
the published report. There Is
no act of Congress regulating the
sale of ahsinthe as such. Its sale
is subject, OF course, to the
internal revenue tax imposed for
the privilege of selling intoxicating
liquors. 1t might also be added
that the tariff act Of 1909 imposes
a customs duty upon all absinthc
imported into this country"

RICH STRIKE On
LONE MOUNTAIN

In April 1910, Johh c.. Yore, a
prospector, went to Lone Noun
tain, about % niles north of Elko,
and began to look for rich float,
specimens of which had been
found on the mountains years ago
aud of which Re had heard. He
made his camp near a spring and
concluded to stay there and pros
pect until he made a strike. He
worked patiently and earnestly.
living on prospector's fare, until
last fall when he struck a rich
pocket of silver lead ore from
which he took 1920 pounds which
he shipped to the smelter at Salt
Lake. This bunch of ore assayed
over $206 in silver and 65.4 per
cent lead. II netted him $3.50 60.
after paying freight and smeiter
charges.
Mr.. Yore kept his strike from
the public until yester day when he
informed the writer of his good
luck. He is convinced that Lone
Mountain is one of the best fields
for capital to be found in this
state. He is satisfied that greater
values will be found as depth is
attained.
AS an illustration OF the
vagaries Of fortune DIR. Yore said
that a cut. made by some Tuscarora
miners, some lime ago, stopped
within three feet Of the ore he
found.
Mr.. Yore has promised to keep
us posted on further strikes.

A DUEL STORY AS
TOLD BY AN OLD TIMER

The Nerada state oath provides
that no dueling shall take place in
the state and w%hosoever is called
upon to take the oath-man or
woman-swears they will not
battle nor assist in a battle. One
of the old time duels which took
place between Nevada men, but
was fought acros the border in
California, was told IF ny the "old
timer" a few afternoons ago. The
duel VISA fought at the "Bodie
Ranch'an old station on the Eoaie-
Aurora road and took place in
1865. In those days you we're
either Union or Secesh. there wa
no half way spot. Doctor Eckle-
wroth was a Unionite and was also
a candidate for public office. The
Aurora Democrat was supposed to
be Secesh and was edited by a man
named Draper. In one OF its
issues Draper paid his respects to
Doc" EcIlew roth in terms which
were anything but polite. That
morning the Doctor sent his card
to the editor, the challenge was
accepted. pistols were named and
the "Bodie Ranch chosen as the
location of the dueling grounds.
A number Of rigs were hired
and the principals with their
seconds and friends repaired to the
field and when the word was given,
both men fired. The editor loaped
into the air, shouting that he was
killed but changed his mind when
he learned that he had oily
received a flesh wound which had
removed a corn from his third toe
on his right foot.
The doctor escaped injury. AS
blood was drawn the anger Of the
doctor was appeased and the many
returned from the bloody battle,
ground, happy in the though that
the undertaken was not needed

OHIO AND ITS FAVORITG SONS

A strong republican faction in
Ohio denounces Taft and calls for
a presidential candidate from
outside the state. A strong demo.
cratic faction denounces Harmon
and it also calls for a nominee
from another commonwealth.
Thus. while every other state
in The union is searching for some
one 20 hail and follow as a
favo rite son, Ohio repudiates
both of hers and threatens to
devour them.
1t was not always ST. Time
wss when Ohio was loyal to her
own and witout prejudice was will
ling to support for the presidency
any good man so long as he was
born within her borders. In those
DAYS the Buckeye politicians stood
not only for the favorite son.
but for second choice, for third
choice and even for fOurthsschoice.
The republicans, if they coul d
not get Sherman, would fight for
Hayes, for Garfield and for Nc
KinlCy. The democrats kept faith
with an equal ardor for William
Allen, for Pendle'On, for Thurman.
Thus for many a year, whenever a
presidential campaign approached,
there was heard great uprOariOus
clamor that no man was really
eligible for the presidency unless
born in Ohio. The change of
sentiment in the state from that
day to this is one of the most
notable features of the recent
reformation or reformation in
politics. Whether it is due to
local causes Of is part and parcel
of the i%nsurgent movement
throughout the nation is not clear,
but in either event it is porten-
tious. What's the matter with
Ohio?-N. Y. Herald.

FIRST SHIPMENT OF NEVADA
COAL WAS DISAPPOINTMENT

According to the Goldfeld
Tribune the first test shipment of
coal from CoaldaIe was anything
but a success and the Southern
Nevada consumers who tried to
burn the material are up in
arms" Says he Tribune: The
business methods marked in
making the test shipment were
severely criticised by those who
were called on to pay drayaHe on
sacks of the stuff that could not
be used. and some difficulty will be
encountered when the company
undertakes to uprOot first impress
sions. Haste in sending the coal
here crsulted in dumping thelworst
lot Of refuse on consumers. Diff
culties with the working force
Unexpectedly occurred and instead
Of completing the carload from
the vein at its deepest develop
mcnt, much Of the stuff was
gathered from dumps and was not
properly representative. When a
correct system Of production is
adopted a better and more uniform
grade of coal will ne sent out.

ENFORCE THE LAW

1t is about time i'm Nevada to
call a spade a spade and do away
with the trickcry and chicancry
that is taking place. IT, Virginia
City a couple OF evenings ago they
had what the people Of that see
t on term a lady like amusement
but what in rcaely was a boxing
match wherein the law was not
complied with. This lady like
amusement resulted in a free for
all fight but Of course little will
be said about it.
The truth Of the matter is. and
none will admit themselves to be
81 foolish as to believe otherwise,
that n couple Of hired scrappcrs
were brought to the city to furnish
amusement for the people and
further that the men fought for
a purse. It is not told what the
purse vas or who gave it but il
is easy TO sec that two men will
not put in their time for several
weeks training for a bout and
then stand up and beat one another
just to give pleasure {, n few
people.
The law of the state says that
every boxing contest must be
licensed but the state has with
very few exceptions ever received
any money from the contests and
the money was then ac ccptcd to
the disgrace Of the state.
The so called ping-poup parties
arc rothing more nor less than an
evasion Of the las and should be
stopped. II is up to the shcriTs
and district attorneys Of the
counties to either gather in the
thouand dollar license or prevent
the slugging mat ,hcs. Arc they
game 70 do t?-Carson News.
