Many queer sights were afforded In
the length of the two trains. A whole

bits but the freight itself being thrown
up on top of the car ahead.
A furniture car was completely tele-

OFFICIALS
HOPEFOR CHANGE IN
ACCOUNTING SYSTEM
Believe 100000 Could Be
Saved Annually Under
New Plan.

improvements in the accounting sys-
TENS of the public schools are hoped for
by District officials as one Of the re-
suits OF the investigation by the Red
Held committee into the District q
method of the purchase of supplies.
II Is estimated by one official that the
adoption of different accounting sys-
TEN would result In an annual saving
OF approximately $1o0, 900. =
Means for ascertaining the cost OF
operation of Individual schools, II is
said, are not provided by the present
system. The accounting officers of the
District are In favor OF a system which
would enable each school to be treated
as a unit. Such a system, II is de-
clared, would permit Of compa risons be-
tween schools of the same size and pave
the way for reduction in the cost OF
operations.
Another criticism OF the District au-
thorities is that the Auditor is not sup
piled with schedule showing the sup
plies received by each school and that
his means of ascertaining how the
money Is expended Is limited.
Approval Is given OF the present plan
OF delivering all school supplies from a
central storage house, and the officials
are in favor of the enlargement OF
warehouse SO as to include all District
supplies.

While officials of the State Depart

intimated TODAY that James T. Du Bols,
minister from this country to Colombia,

Is understood he will lay before the
State Department chiefs the terms on
which Colombia probably would be will
ing to settle. He Is now in Washington
on leave of absence.

THE DEMOCRATIC
COUNTY COMMITTEE

We have been asked about the
membership Of the democratic
county committee and its officers.
AS We recollect the result of the
primary election, only three
precincts in the county elected
county committeeman two years
ago. These were Elku. John
Henderson: Carlin. A. B. Gray ;
Tuscarora. E. A. P. johnson. On
September 20. 1910, Messrs. john
son and Gray met in Elko and
organized the committee by elect
ing Mr.. Gray, chairman, and
johnson, secretary. Mr.. BENDER
son was in San Francisco at the
time. So far as we know. no meet
ing of the committee has been held
since that time. If there has
been. no public notice of the
meeting was given. At least, none
ever came under our notice. .,2us.
The practice of the committee in
this county has always been, when
delegates t" a state convention
were to be elected, to divide the
county into districts which gave
the democrats in each district an
opportunity to elect delegates to
represent them. But this practice
has been changed and one or two
men make up a ticket that gives
the entire eighteen delegates to
SIX percincts, Wells, Elko, Star
Valley, Carlin. Glover valley and
Jarbidge. This way of doing
business is directly contrary to the
principles of home rule and makes
the party the plaything of a boss.
Against it, we most emphatically
protest and in so doing we feel
confident that we voice the senti-
ments of very large majority of
the democrats of the county.

JOHN GREGOV|CH STABBED

Jrhn Gregovich, one of the
pioneers of the state and one of
it's best citizen. was seriously if
not fatally stabbed Tuesday
morning at Tonopah by a man
named Murcovich. Gregovich was
rushed TO the Miners hospital and
at latest reports five doctors were
working to safe his life.
The following particulars of the
affairs are from a special dispatch
10 the Reno Gazette:
MurcoVich is a cousin to one of
the men who lost their lives in the
Belmont diseaster. He demanded
that the money which was coming
to the estate of the dead miner be
paid to him. Gregovich refused to
pay it, and said that it would be
paid to the wife when the rourt so
ordered. Murcovich. without
warning, grabbed Gregovich and
stabbed him four times
W. G. Harding, agent of the
AutI company, jumped in between
the men, as did J. f. Peck, agent
of the railroad company, and pre-
vented further attack. William
Walker, assistant chief of police,
grabbed Murcovich and threw him
into an auto and rushed him to
jsil, where he is under double
guard. Gregovich is highly
respected.
There is some talk of lyncbing,
but cooler heads will prevent any,
thing of this kind. Sheriff Malley
has extra guards surrounding the
Jail.
Gregovich was still alive at 2
o'clock this afternoon but he has a
small chance of recovery, as two
of the knife cuts entered the heart
cavity and severed one femoral
artery. DR.. Masterson had his
artery clamps in his pocket when he
was called, and Immediately
checked the flow Of blood and IL
Gregovich lives il will:be due to the
fact that the surgeon happened to
have these clamps with him. The
streets are crowded with excited
men discussing the attempted
murder.
