AN INTERESTING LECTURE

Mr.. Eyde, the government in
spector of explosives, delivered a
very interesting lecture last night,
on the handling and shipment of
explosives and other dangerous
articles. His talkwas illustrated by
slides showing the correct and in
correct way Of loading these articles
in a car and the results that;usually
happend when the regulations of
the interstate commerce commits
sion were not obeyed.
He was introduced by Superinten-
de mt Oeilvie who briefly sketched
the history of the governm ent reg
ulations and the necessity that gave
birth to them,
There was larg attendance of
railroad men who paid close atten-
ton to Mr.. Eyde's remarks. 1t
was made plain to all train men
that accidents, destroying life and
property, could only be prevented
by the strict observance of the
government regulations concerning
the ship lent of explosives and othe,
dangerous articles. If the advice
Of Mr.. Eyde is followed by the rail-
road employees who heard him last
night, there will be no accidents
on the Western Pacific caused by
the shipment Of explosives over it's
line.

In the senate a few days ago
Senator Sweeney introduced bill
which is pretty far-reaching. 1t
makes it criminal offense to in.
veigle, coax or assist in the causing
of any woman to enter a life of
shame. The offender is punished
with sentence of from two to
twent, years in the penitentiary.
The same punishment is meted out
to any person who forces woman
to enter life of shame for debt or
a husband who urges such move
on the part of his wife. bringing
a woman from another state to
Nevaca is is punishable with the
same severe penalty. The law will
undoubtedly pass, as no one has any
sympathy with such cattle as would
come under the indictments. Car.
son Appeal.
We heartily agree with the
Appeals comments on Senator
Sweeney's bill and hope it will be-
come a law. 1t can not be too
drastic in its provisions pr too severe
ia it's penalties. We sometimes
think that men and womne who
commit the offenses named IN the
bill should be put under the sod
with very little legal ceremony.
We trust that Elko county, sena.
tors and assembIymen will cast
unanimous vote for this hill.

TALKING ABOUT THE
GREAT STATE Of NEVADA

One O. New York mining publ
cations recently contained an article
on Nevada largely contributed by
mar we'll known in Gold6eld,
especially during the early days of
the camp. The introductory para
graphs read:
Everything about Nevada is in
teresting, many things inspiring
and surely the battle-born, metal
ribbed State has never possessed
more eloquent eulogist than the
well-knowE. mining engineer, of the
grand old camp of Phoebe, Nevada
Mr.. James W. Abbot. Yes, every
thing about Nevada is Of interest
or nearly everything. Back in
the old day, before the State itself
was carved, old man Horace Greeley
went out there and was one of the
first to proclaim the enormous
mineral treasure which would be
found in its borders. Mark Twain,
Judge Goodwin. Artemus Ward,
Dan De guile and other gifted men
lave cast halo with their genius
over the Sagebrush State. Verify,
their imaginations all compact have
looked fir I'M heaven to earth, from
earth TO heaven and given to air
nothingness at times local habita-
ton and name. But no more
felicitous and fitting encomiums
have been pronounced upon Nevada
than those by James W. Abbot, who
has had so much to do with the
making of Nevada mines and mar
kets and is we'll qualified by resi-
dence and experience to pen 4
tribute 20 the grandeur and glory
of the Bonanza commonwealth"
In prefacing his remarks about
this State. Mr.. Abbot, who has been
closely identified with it for
many years has the following to say:
Nevada boasts no worlds met
ropolis like New York, contains no
central mart of nations commerce
like Illinois. offers no twelve-months
playground for all people like Cal
ifornia. Except in time SO freshet
the biggest river which flows out of
the State carries less water than
the humblest brooklet in Oregon.
Its largest lakes are underground.
When called upon in the sacred
name of conversation for forest re-
serves, it responds in broad stretches
of sagebrush and pinon, without a
sawlog to the acre." But Neva-
da yields to no State in the impor-
lance of its contributions to our
country's history, in phenomenal
mineral wealth and in manifold re-
sources barely touched"

Attorney Scores Mayor.
George Spence, one of the attorneys

Mayor Woodward might as well have
turned the whole contract over to

pany as to offer to sign a new contract
drawn by three of six attorneys he
named. The attorneys all represent
the power company, according to Mr..
Spence.
Mayor Woodward asserted the Gre
matory matter had been talked to
death, but that all the talking would
not convert him to the wishes of the
Destructor Company. He said he
was willing to pay S260,000 for the
plant, although that was too much
but that he would sign no contract
until one was drawn formally and
legally.
They can settle this matter in half
an hour when they are ready to come
to that" he said.
