AS to general business conditions,
he said
THE country is discountng the
tariff agitation in congress, and as
soon as the tariff and currency bills
are out of the way there is no rea-
son why business should not resume
its normal aspect The country is

can only be temporary The coun-
try has withstood tariff mistakes

course, as a corporation, we are not
interested in the tariff, except as II
affects communities upon the pros.
perity Of which our traffic depends.
For that reason we are particularly
interested in the effects of the du.
ties on wool and sugar in this state. .
Mr.. Sproule said no new extensions
of Southern Pacific lines were con
templated at this time.
That public regulation 81 railroads
should be welcomed rather than de
cried by transportation companies
was statement made by Mr.
Sproule
There was day." said Mr.
Sproule, when the old railroad man
agements were unfayorably spoken
of. II was the day Of rebates, draw
backs and commissions, devices which
were not peculiar to the railroad
business alone, but which existed ther
and still exist in some other business
es.
"The railroads may now be saiC
to be at the point of acute indigestion
of regulation. Each state does i
differently It is hardly realized
what a task is placed by stat
on its railroad commission. Nevadi

which is in advance of the times. |

MYSTERIOUS MAN
WITH NUGGETS
STARTS RUMOR
SACK FILLED WITH GOLD is
BROUGHT IN BY SILENT
PRoSPEcToR.

PRESCOTT, Aug. 26-Bonanza
tales of golden treasures have often
come from this section of the coun'
try but one of very recent date and
which seems to bear the marks of
genuineness is that which comes
from an old miner who came to
Prescott a few days ago.
The old adage that silence is
golden" was exemplified when a
placer miner named George Bostick
displayed a shot sack full of nuggets
but refused to diyulge whence they
came or place any particular value
on the goods, other than to say their
value would range close to $500.
The shipment will go to the mint
at San Francisco.
The owner stated this is not the
first time he has made such con
signments. On being questioned as
to the location of his El Dorado
Bostick pointed in the direction Of
the southwestern part Of the coun
try from which is inferred that the
yield may possibly be traced to the
Rich Hin region, famed for its fab
uous production in early days. The
old beds are still in the productive
class, and hardly month passes by
that a $100 nugget is not taker
from under a boulder or washed ou
