GIBSON FIGHTS WITH COUNSEL

HIS insistenee on Picking Jury May
Cause One Lawyer to Withdraw.
Goshen, n y. Nov. ia serious
clash between Burton w. Gibson. the
lawyer accused OF numbering his client,
Mrs. Rose Menschik Szabo. for her So.
0oo estate, and his counsel as to who
shall dominate in matters causing diff
ference OF opinion has resulted from
the first day Of the trial spent in select
Ing jury Robert II. Elder says that
t1ye OF the jurors were selected against
his better judgment by Gibson because
when II comes down to matter of a
verdict OF guilty the jurors are the
ones to hand out the dope" and Glib
son Is the one to suffer.
Charles Goldizer, one of Gibson's
lawyers, says Gibson has "elther n fool
for a client or a fool for a lawyer, as
you like to look at it" and intimates
that circumstances might arise which
would cause his withdrawal. As for
Gibson, he gleefully said as he sat on
the cot in his cell, his wife by his side
i've had my way the first day IN the
selection Of the jury. I am satisfied.
We have fine body of men"
Gibson declared that his counsel was
certain that it would not be necessary
for him to take the stand.
"If ! think it advisable" he added, 81
shall certainly go on" Gibson admit
ted dissenting with his counsel. saying:
I'VE were scrapping all day. Didn't
you hear us?"
Mr.. Elder said that five men on the
jury were chosen by Gibson. Later he
said there was no juror accepted whom
he did not approve of.
At one point during the examination
Elder told Gibson to keep still" so
loudly that he was heard by lawyers
for the prosecution.
Charles Goldizer examined only one
talesman during yesterday. When ask
ed why this was, he declared that he
was not a lawyer to stand dictation by
client as TO who should go on the
jury, and in this connection he revised
the. adage about a man having a fool
for a client when he acts as his own
lawyer.

HISTORIC RELICS DIS
COVERED IN WASHINGTON

Photographs of two scdlptured
heads, fashioned from stone are on
their way to museums and scientific
authorities in many parts of the
forld on a mission of rare historical
interest to the west Edward S. Cur
tbs, the famous western photographer
of Indian faces, believes the stone
heads were made by Indians to repre-
sent the first two white men who pen
etrated to the Columbia river, long
before the days of Lewis and Clark.
The heads were found buried deep be-
low the surface of the earth at the
ranch of Samuel Hill, near Maryhill,
Wash. Mr.. Curtis, who has spent ten
years among the Indians, investigated
the strange find and has aseertained,
at least to his own satisfaction, that
superstition caused the red men to
fashion the heads as likenesses of the
first white men they ever saw. Tradi-
tion has it that two Spaniards, more
than a century ago, survived ship
wreck during an exploring expedition
mp the Columbia river, and were adop-
ted by the Indians, who believed them
to be supernatural beings because of
their strange accomplishments and
appearance. The features on the heads
are distinctly Caucasian.

.ELKO EDITOR STILL
AFTER AUTO ROAD

Editor Steninger, of the Elko Free
Press. is still at work on the auto
road proposition. He was in Salt
Lake the latter part of last week, and
is quoted by the Salt Lake Tribune,
on this subject, in part as follows:
: Our plan is to build an excellent
road from Cobre to Wendover to con-
meet with the western extremity of
the automobile route through Utah.
From Cobre to the California line our
route follows closely the line of the
Southern Pacific railroad. The South
ern Pacific goes through natural
pass in the Humboldt mountains and
we have already good road parallel
ing the railroad.
Zone of the plans for new road
building through northern Nevada
contemplates the conversion of the
old roadbed of the Southern Pacific
into an automobile highway. The
roadbed is graveled and elevated and
with little work, which will include
the leveling of the depressions caus-
ed by the removal of the ties and the
replacing OF culverts, will make an
excellent turnpike.
We propose to spare no expense
IN making as near perfect as possible
our portion of the transcontinental
roadway. We are conscious of the
tact that the highway will be used by
wealthy automobilists, many of whom
will welcome an opportunity for good
investment. The development OF our
rich valleys through northern Neva-
ia furnishes lucrative field for the
operation OF investors and the invest
ment Of capital is what we need to
give our country the development it
merits.
The Elko route will give as good
roadway as the Ely route. 1t will
take the motorist through q much
more thickly populated section of the
country as the tourist is almost within
signt OF the railway the entire way
and follows telephone line constant
~, SO that he is never out of the line
OF communication. The route passes
through fertile valleys instead OF over
desert.

SET FOR JANUARY SO

The trial of J. Frank TRAINER on
a second charge of murder will oc-
eur on January 80 next in Reno be-
fore the Hon. E. A. Ducker, Judge of

terday unpon motion of District At
torney Woodburn.
TRAINER was convicted in this city
of the murder of Eugene Quilici, an
innkeeper near Inlay, in the winter of
1911, during a holdup at Quilici Is
place. Quilici was killed and also
Mrs. Quilici. TRAINER and Nimrod
Uric were captured and Uric was sen.
fenced to be hanged. Uric is now at
Carson under death sentence.
TRAINER was tried in Washoe
county on change of venue out of
Humboldt county and when he was
sentenced to life Imprisonment the
people of Humboldt were diss ttisfied
and Tramner was brought TO t.lal on
the second eharge-that of killing
Mrs. Quiliei. An appeal was taken to
the Supreme Court to prevent tie trial

could not be removed from prison, but
the effort failed.-Journal.

DESERVED TR|B-
UTE BY HEPBURN

The late Senator w. b. Hepburn, of
Idaho, in an address in the senate On
the subject of conservation, paid de-
served tribute to the mining prospect
or lie was opposing the withdrawal of
public lands from entry by the gov
ernment, and what he had to say is
worthy OF place in every miner Is
scrap book.
The government of the United
States never discovered or opened or
developed a mine in the history og
this country, and it never will.
There is peculiar condition exist.
ing in regard to the discovery and
development of mines. 1t is a bust
ness unto itself. No geologist ever
discovered mine. There is not a
mine in the United States, or in the
history of mining, that any geologist
ever discovered.
If you withdraw the mining lands
from the prospector there will be nc
more mines opened in this country
That applies to all classes of mines
The coal in the west was discovered
by prospectors. The great Comstock
mine, which perhaps has produced
more wealth to the country than any
other, was discovered by man who
had what we call in the mining world
a grubstake. He had no money and
he was not man who was recog.
nized as more than a prospector. Yet
he found those mines.
The cost is small. The man takes
his sack of flour and his side of
bacon, a can of yeast powder, a little
sack of salt, frying pan, coffee
pot, an. iron spoon, and iron knife and
fork, and he goes into the mountains
with perhaps only a pair of blankets
and he packs them generally on his
back.
He does not find his prospect the
day he starts out. | have known
them to go years and years without
even finding anything of value and
then find that of which they had
dreamed.
Up to that time, that man has
stood alone in the world ON his own
responsibility and expense; and yet
based upon his work and based
upon his good fortune, rest the great
mining enterprises of the United
tates, present and past.

MINERS OPPOSED TO
FEDERAL INTERPRETING

Five hundred miners and prospect
ors, at Bishop, California, banded to-
gether in the Prospectors' Alliance of
America, forwarded to the governors
of eleven western states memorial
asking their assistance in combating
government bureaucratic interfer-
ence with mining operations.
The alliance, of which James But
Ter of Tonopah, is president, held it's
meeting Friday and, in addition to
drafting a memorial, which was for
warded to the governors, adopted reso
lutions pledging its members to deny
information to federal officers and to
prevent any such government officials
from entering or investigating any
mining property belonging to men,
GERS of the organization.
The board of directors of the ALI
ance also was directed to combat by
every lawful means the enactment of
any federal laws limiting the scope of
present mining regulations or to en-
force the proposed leasing system Of
mineral lands.

LAST REGULAR
BOARD MEETING

The board of county commissioners
met yesterday IN its last regular ses-
sion, with Chairman Haviland. Com
missioners Stoker and Bradshaw pres
ent. Aside from the consideration of
monthly bills, there was little business
presented to the board, and it con
cluded its session last evening.
An ordinance was passed limiting
the speed for automobiles in Paradise
valley to IL miles per hour
Monthly reports of Clerk Davey,
Sheriff Lamb and H. G. Hardesty.
Jailer at Lovelock, were accepted.
Petition of citizens of Paradise Val
ley for the removal of certain poles of
the G. 7. & p. Co., from in front of the
Burge ranch was referred to Chairman
Haviland, with authority to adjust the
matter with the telephone company.
A request was received from Com.
pany d, Lovelock, for an appropria-
tion of 10000 per month, for hall rent
and expenses. IT was ordered that
Clerk Davey take the matter up with
the state adjutant-general, to deter
mine what amout he wishes allowed.
The board then adjourned until
Monday, January 6, at which time it

pROSpF(TOR THE PATH
FINDER OF MINING WORLD

There can be no doubh but that the
prospector is the pathfinder in mining
operations. He blazes the trail
through regions practically unknown.
He is the pioneer, the vanguard of an
army of mining men and 1 investors
who follow in his lead; and in his line
of work, he is just as important, and
more so, than is the man who eventu-
ally takes advantage of, and profits
by his discoveries. And, but for him,
many, of the great mining camps of
today, many of our great producers
and dividend payers, would never
have been heard of.
As general thing the prospeetor is
in class by himself. 1t is not often
that he is skillful miner. 1t is usual
" the case that he has had but little
schooling his knowledge of geology
and mineralogy is nil; surface indica-
tions appeal to i'm only and his ignor-
ance of formation and the composition
of ores often leads hum into grevious
errors. into mistakes which his vic
tins charge to a desire to deeeive;
and yet, every little while, he will pry
into the mysteries of Nature and her
hidden treasures, and as a result of
his toll the world is given another
source of great mineral wealth.
= 1t is true that many people find
fault with the average prospector and
condemn his methods, and yet he is
the anchor to which tie mining indus
try is tied. He may make mistakes
and still his intentions are good and
honorable. His imagination may be
vivid, but his exaggerations are only
the echo of his hopes and tie lack of
real knowledge about mining affairs.
All men are not fitted for the life of a
prospector. His is the longing to be
alone with Nature. He enjoys the
solitude, the sublimity of the noun
tain fastnesses. For months at a time
with or without companion, he fingers
in the canyons in almost inaccessible
places, and is happy. Once let him
visit a city or bustling mining camp
he soon tires and longs for the free
dom of the Notwithstanding Re-
view
