JOHN n. sREAsEL'S VIEW
Well Known Writer Gives Glowing
Word Picture Of the Speaker. 3

In a fifty-page booklet about the
speaker, Mr.. GFensel says:
Champ Clark is an honest man.
And after that what more Is there to
say? You may not like him, you may
not agree with him, but you respect
his breadth of views, the maturity and
soundness Of his logic. his vision of the
future.
His voice is a clear call of the
times.
He is cut out for greatness because
OF his contempt for tradition. which
he replaces with progressive ideas of
national breadth. He is as true and
undertaking as the figures cut in cold
steel on the carpenters square. There
is something powerful yet simple
about Champ Clark. He demands that
you examine the merits OF the case,
and one Of his great attractions is that
his mind is so large and round that

A POOR LOSER

Jack Maher, the man found guilty
of gambling by an Elko jury, and
sentenced to serve a term of a
year at the prison, was brought to
this city yesterday by Sheriff
Harris and after having his
measurements taken WIS landed at
the prison.
Maher is almost a nervous wreck
and cried and sobbed like a child
at the armory when he was being
measured. Tears rolled down his
cheeks and his sobs we're heard all
over the building He was taken
to the prison where he again gave
way to his grief.
1t is strange that a man will
take the chances of going to a
prison, if he would feel so keenly
the disgrace. When Mahel sat
down in the gambling game he
knew he was committing felony
and taking chance on the law.
He was caught in the act, found
guilty and received the proper
sentence. 1t is not for US to say
whether a law is right OF wrong,
but so long as it is on the statute
books is our duty to obey it.
BY Makers action he has proven
himself to be cheap sport and
welcher when he loses. He. gam
bled with the law and lost and
then instead Of taking his losses
with a smile, weeps and walls and
plays the baby act.
1t is time that some of the people
Of the state should learn that they
are not above the law and come
into line as law-abiding citizens

MURDER AND SUICIDE
At GOLDFIELD MINE

A murder and suicide occurred
ut the Combination this afternoon
at a o'clock. AS the shift was
going off work stranger appeared
ard ordered one of the workmeu
to throw up his hands. The man
refused or hesitated and the
stranger fired at him, the bullet
striking in the upper part of the
body. Without waiting or offering
any explanation to the crowd of
men who advanced toward him in .
threatening manner. the stranger
completed the job by shooting him.
self. Both men fell and both are
supposed to be MORALLY woun ded.
The man who did the shooting is
dead. P. H. Lavelle, Of 1O4 Ridge
street vas the victim. He was
shot fur times. The assailant
was Fred Burnham. He is from
Montana and was an old partner
of Lavelle. The trouble arose from
an old time feud over mining
claims.
Later Developments disclose the
facts to be entirely in favor of
Lavells. The latter was coming
from shift and had proceeded 800
yards from the shaft toward town
when he was confronted by Fred
Burnham, former partner from
Butte, Montana, who has been in
Goldfeld for about two weeks.
No one knows what happened.
Both men were on the trail.
Burnham accosted Lavelle by
ordering him to throw up his
hands. Lavelle began running to
escape. Then Burnham fired and
L avelle fell. After that Burnham
walked up and fired two more
shots into the PROSTATE body.
Then he looked at him and con-
Guiding that his victim was dead,
turned the gun on himself and
shot himself through the body,
little to the right of the heart,
dropping dead in his tracks.
The first ball went through
Lavelle's spine, the second through
his chest and the third. fired when
he was on the ground, entered the
bowels. Lavelle is completely
paralyzed and with but one chance
in hundred to recover.
Buraham was found dead, with
blood gushing from his mouth and
the wound in the chest. His gun
was found at his side. 1t was a
38 Colt.
Lavelle was a peaceable man
and well liked. He had the con-
fidence and respect of Supt. Thorn.

presided and E. P. Carville
utticiated as secretary in place of

present. In calling the meeting to
order, the chairman suggested that

Fisher and Booher declined and
M. S. Badt and Alex Weiland were
appointed to fill their places.
While the committee was pre-
pairing its report, the chairman
called on 7. G. Lowe, the district
passenger agent of the Western
Pacific Railway company, for re-
marks.
Mr.. Lowe responded and said
that he was at the me citing to tell
the people that the Western Pacific
was deeply interested i n the move
ment to build up Elko county, and
that it would assist in the work
in every possible way. That in doing
so the company was merely help
ing itself as it would grow and
prosper as the county developed.

give good service. The company
was now getting out a booklet
called Opportunities" in which
there would be ten or more pages
devoted TO Elko county. 1t would
contain the name, purposes and
Officers of the organization to boost
Elko county. The organization
would also have the assistance of
the Western Pacific's powerful
eastern connections in distributing
its literature. The company ex-
pected to spend a good deal of
money the coming wear in advertis-
ing Nevada. A great many COM

company making inquiries about
Nevada's oppor tunities.
He closed by assuring the meet
ing that the Western Pacific would
do all in its power to help along
the good work.
While waiting for the conf ttee
after Mr.. Lowers talk, the time
was spent in discussing a name for
the organization. The Elko county
Commercial Club, The Elko County
Commercial Club and Industrial
League, The Elko County Develop

The Elko County Development
League seemed to be the most
favored and it was finally adopted.

read and motion to adopt it was
defeated. 1t was firaIly decided to
