NATIONAL STILL SCENE
OF GREAT MINING ACTIVITY

The reports that have been publish
ed in the press of the state recently to
the effect that no mining is being done
in the camp of National are erroneous.
The National Mines company is ac-
lively engaged in working its prop
erty and is producing continuously
Work is also being carried on steadily
upon a number of other properties in
the camp.
The Charleston National Mining
Syndicate IS prosecuting work within
its ground on a spur from the Nation
al vein which H. v. Winehell, w. H..
Wiley and other witnesses, testifying
on behalf of the National Mines COM
,any, mentioned in their testimony in
the apex case tried at Carson City
during the past summer. Much local
rmment has passed recently concern
ing the accuracy with which those
gentlemen foreeasted the result OF fu-
ture development, as the later work
ings in the disputed territory has full
ly sustained their views as then ex-
pressed.
The present steady production of
the camp gives assurance that it will
he in the future, as it has been in the
past, one Of the greatest gold camps of
the state.

ELY COPPER COMPANY
DECLINES TO ARBITRATf

Governor Oddie arrived at Ely
Tuesday evening, and at once met the
managers of the Nevada Consolidated
Copper company, to whom he proposed
arbitration. After the conference the
Governor issued the following state
ment:
"I met Mr.. Lakenan, manager of
the Nevada consolidated tonight and
offered my services in bringing about
mediation and coneiliation in the dis
pute and requested HIM to have it ac-
complished with the idea Of bring
ing about a settlement. He answered
that the company had met the EN-,
ployes and had petitions signed by
committees of employees of nearly all
the crafts and employees in the operat-
ing departments accepting the wage
increase and that he considered the
wages fair and if they are not fair
his Office is open to consideration of
any further grievance of employees
and that in view of this he does not
care to submit the matter to arbitra.
tion as requested by me. My duty is,
and I propose to carry it out, to try
and bring about a peaceful settlement
of this difficulty and in any event to
see that life and property are pro.
tected.'
Under the law the Governor has the
right to select one arbitrator, the com'
panies one and the men one. If the
companies in the case do not make .
selection the Governor may select a
third arbitrator.

TAX
Case ON TRIAL

The case of State of Nevada VS..
Wells, Fargo & Company was called
before Judge Ducker, in the District
Court, this afternoon at clock, hav-
ing been adjourned to that hour from
10 O'Clock this morning.
Mrs. A. r. Shewalter, Of Reno, was
swarm as reporter, to take all evidence
in the case.
I The State is represented by Attor-
yGeneral Cleve H. Baker and Dis
trict Attorney Callahan, while L. A.
IGibbons, of Reno, represents the de-
fendant corporation.
The action is brought to recover
1894 taxes and costs levied against
the company in this county for the
year 1910. For that years taxes
Wells, Fargo & Company were assess
ed ON basis of $500 per mile for the
entire mileage within the state over
which they conduct express business.
In the whole state there is due from
the company taxes in excess Of &c.
900 and costs, and it is probable that
the present action will determine the
entire matter.
Present in the court room this after
noon are J. F. Shaughnessy, state rail
road commissioner, and Assessor Leon
ard, who will probably be the chief
witnesses for the State. As witnesses
for defendant there are in attendance
e. E. McMichael, Wells, Fargo & Co.
superintendent for Nevada and Utah,
and A. Y. Lawson, former auditor Of
the company.

SPOKANE, Wash, Oct. 17.-Wess-
ern governors will meet for confer
Yence on the public lands question dur
ing the annual convention of the
American Mining Congress in spo-
kane. November 25 to 29.
The call will be issued by Governor

following state executives: Tasker L.
Oddie of Nevada, James Shafroth of
Colorado, Oswald West of Oregon.
James II. Hawley of Idaho, Hiram
johnson of California, Edwin L. Nor
RS OF Montana, and William Spry of

90, Is taking an active interest in the

congress to assist in arranging the
meeting.
1.-The conference will be to consid-

man, who has charge of local arrange
ments for the congress. ALASKA will
come in for much consideration, both
at the governors meeting and at the
Mining congress. We expect about
800 Alaskans at the congress. They
Will hold special meeting to arrange
program of action to be submitted
to the Mining congress-
Assistant National Secretary r. l..
Walcott, who has opened headquarters
in Spokane, anticipates the largest at
tendance in the history of the con-
gress. The day following the closing
session, delegates and visitors will
board two special trains, one bound
for the famous Occur d'Alene mining
district, and the other for the SLOGAN
district. Several prominent produc-
ing mines will be visited and at each
open house will be maintained to per-
init thorough inspection.
Wallace, Kellogg and other Coeur
d'Alene towns are making elaborate
plans for the biggest occasion in their
history, as the visit of 80 many lead
ing mining men at one time to those
towns will be an event extraordinary.

lead the people out of the wilderness,
to look little into the political his
tory of some of the men who have
seized the leadership of the new party
in this state and determine whether
they are in the game through any phil
anthropic motives, or whether they
are seeking to promote some selfish
personal end or satisfy some personal
grievance. When a man who has been
the sand-pattest of sand-patters all
his life has a sudden reformation, it
might be worth while to look into the
cause of such a revolutionary change
of heart, before voting against a man
like Judge Massey who is genuine
progressive and always has been and
by nature can't be anything else. 1t
takes something more than claiming
the name progressive" to make q
real progressive. A rose by any
other name would smell as sweet" is
an old adage. Calling men progress
sives or reactionaries in politics does
not necessarily make them one thing
or the other. A man is what he is, not
what he claims to be or what some

by toning up the stomach and curing
the indigestion. Michael Hessheimer,

three years, but six bottles of Electric
