UNKNOWN man
KILLED BY TRAIN

At about 4 O'Clock yesterday after
noon, while attempting to board a
westbound Southern Pacific freight
train, which passed through without
stopping, an unknown man was in
stantly killed. He was standing at a
point ten feet east of the water col
umn in front of the freight house,
and while running to catch hold of the
ladder of a car stumbled on a plank
and pitched headlong under the train.
His head and shoulders were so badly
crushed that he was dead when by

The man came in from the west
Tuesday, and in conversation with par
ties about the station claimed that he
had been a plumbing contractor at

Soon after the accident Coroner

CLOSE Of SUCCESSFUL
INDIAN FAIR AT NIXON

The most remarkable fair ever held
in the state of Nevada closed last
night at Nixon, says the Gazette All
of the exhibits at this fair were the
individual contribution of Indians re-
siding on the Pyramid reservation.
The wonderful exhibition comprised
cattle, horses, poultry, vegetables,
farm products of All descriptions, bead
and basket work, leather work, and
domestic science exhibits, including
pies, cakes, cookies, doughnuts, jellies
and canned fruits.
1t is the plan of Superintendent
Oliver, who is in charge of the reser-
walton, to bring most of the exhibits
to the Nevada state fair, and it is ex-
pected that many prizes will be taken
back.
The outdoor games consisted of
horse races. change saddle race, tug
of-war for men and women, foot races
for both sexes, football game, pie
and watermelon eating contests, and
chase after a creased pig.
The most notable feature of the fair
was an exhibit by an Indian of SO
tables which he had raised on a farm
of Is acres. He was awarded many
prizes and expects TO take others at
the state fair.
Fhe horticultural exhibit was said to
be the best seen at any fair held an
coast. 1t comprised stalks of corn IL
feet high, pumpkins weighing from
so to 90 pounds, squash, beets, toma-
toes and potatoes of excellent equality
and of tremendous size. Wheat and
oats had large full heads and some
were seven feet high. The alfalfa ex-
hibit was equally good. The fruit dis
play was splendid. The apples, peaches
and plums were the equal of any on
the eastern markets,
An Indian said to be 1l0 years old
exhibited his war bonnet and dance
clothes. The trimmings of the bonnet
were of small mirrors and beads sewed
onto deer skin. The arm and ankle
bands were made of tin from which
streamed eagle feathers and bright
cloth arranged in manner peculiar
to the Indian tribes. Two stone
mortars and pestles were also an dis
play showing how the Indians used to
grind corn to make flour. Many 9TH
er historical exhibits were shown and
were the center of attraction for the
white visitors TO the fair.
The Pyramid reservation is about
40 miles northeast of Reno and is
made up of 900 Indians who are given
a number of acres of land to cultivate.
There are some excellent school build
ings there, and the reservation shows
prosperity on every hand,

THE NEW STATE CAPITOL
AT MADISON, WISCONSIN

The fourth highest dome in the
worl is that of the new Wisconsin
state capitol, with a height from the
ground Of 269 feet, inches, without
the bronze statue of a woman which
will increase it to 2s7 feet, more than
the width of seven city lots. The
three domes which are higher are
those of St. Peters cathedral at Rome,
$50 feet; the Duomo at Florence, Italy,
$40 feet, and the national capitol at
Washington, 307h feet. The dome on
the Wisconsin capitol is more than 104
feet in diameter, nearly as wide as
thre city lots, at the base. 1t is con-
structed of concrete, reinforced with
1900 tons of steel with an exterior
wall made of 5000 tons of white gran
ite. In order to place the main steel
girders each Of which weighed %
tons it was necessary GO erect a
square steel tower through the cen
ter with derricks which could be NOV
ed from corner to corner. The dome
alone will cost $2,500,00O, considerably
more than one-thIrd Of the price for
the whole building, which is limited to
$6,0O0,000. A page view of the build
ing is feature of the October Popu-
lar Mechanics Magazine.

PREDICTS SEARLYRf.
PUBLICAN VICTORY

The Republican partv will be re-
turned to power just as soon as the
voters of the nation learn what the
new tariff bill really means to them.
in the opinion of Senator James H.
Brady, of Idaho, expressed in a Her
aid Republican interview. Not only
that, but the wool and sugar industries
OF the west will survive till that not
far distant time when protection is re-
stored to them, but, the senator be-
lieves, will emerge from the period of
free wool and sugar so badly crippled
that it will take them years to re-
cover.
expect the return of the Repub-
iicans to power as soon as the people
learn what the tariff means; l expect
readJustment of schedules to protect
wool and sugar at that time, and ex-
pect that the wool industry of the
west will survive, although injured SO
materially that it will take it years
to recover from the losses sustained, -
said Senator Brady.
Cane sugar probably will be in
Jured more than beet sugar. John
Sharp Williams, senator from Missis-
cippi, declared that he believed pas
sage of the bill meant closing of all
sugar refneries in his state. In the
west think the refneries will keep
open, but win not be able to pay the
farmers profitable price, SO that pro-
duction will decrease and the industry
will be seriously disturbed, if not de-
stroyed.
"The worst feature of the tariff bin
as whole, in my opinion, is it's dis
elimination. For instance, they low
cred the tariff favoring the manufac-
lures of the east 27 per cent and that
arecting the farmers Oh the west, the
beet and woolgrowers, loo per cent.
Seventeen articles which the farmers
buy and which went on the free list
brought in = tariff on an average less
than $l00 each, 81, 100 in all. Seven
teen articles whlch the farmers sell
and which went on the free list
brought in $26,O00,OOO per annum. The
farmers received a right to buy on q
free trade market goods which brought
tariff oil $l,l00 per annum, and win
be forced to sell on a free trade mar
ket goods which brought in a tariff
OF $26,00O.000. This is an illustration
of the discrimination of the worst
character which may be found from
one end of the bill to the other.
II believe that the Glass currency
bill will pass the house practically as
1T comes from the committee s hands.
On being reported to the senate, it
will go into the finance committee and
it will take, l believe, about two
weeks to perfect the bill.
In the interim most of the seniors
like myself have gone to their homes
to look after their business affairs, as
they realize that there will be no re-
cess between the special session and
the regular session beginning Deeem-

NEVADA RANKS FOURTH
IN PRODUCTION OF GOLD

Production of gold in the United
States during 1912 amounted to 93,-
45l, 800, decrease of $4, ABS, 800 as
compared with the previous year, and
the lowest American production since
1907.
The output of silver was 50, 766, soc
fine punces, valued at a,la7 ,a0a, an
increase of $a,a67 400 ounces over
1911, the greatest gain being in the
state Of Utah. Utah's 1911 produc-
tion was 11,630,00 ounces.
The figures were made public Tues
day in a joint statement by the mint
bureau and the geological survey. The
decrease was caused because Ne
vada S output lost $4,521 200 as com
pared with 1911.
George E. Roberts, director of the
mint, said that while the output of
gold had decreased in the United
States and Australia there was suffi-
cient increase in South Africa to make
the worlds production of gold for
1919 greater than in 1911. Statistics
are not yet available on the world s
production.
California led the states in gold pro-
duetion, putting out $40, ,0as, ,0o0; Colo
RADIO came second with Ns,74l 200;
Alaska third with $lf, f,l9s,6o0, and
Nevada fourth, with $l3,575, 200

DECLINE OF GOOD
CITIZENSHIP IN NEW YORK

A Public Ledger staff correspondent
who made an analysis of the New
York situation, assumes that 100000
votes would be east in the election
which is to determine whether or not
Tammany shall triumph, an issue that
should certainly bring out every loyal
citizen. This means that of every five
males of voting age in Greater New
York two will not vote. Last year
Greater New York s vote on the presi-
dency was over 100000; it is highly
probable that the vote in November
will drop below our correspondent s
estimate; it may be almost 100000 less
than last year. In 1908 the presiden
tial vote was larger than in 1912, and
year--in l909-the grand total fell to
$3.50, and Gaynor, Barnard, Hearst
and three others were running. Hence
il seems probable that in November
there will be practically 100000 New
York voters who will not take the
trouble to go to the polls, even to de-
feat an organization notoriously cor
rupt.
A dozen American cities this fall
have important campaigns. Most of
them involve large public improve
ments in which are large possibilities
of profit. In every case there is an
old organization playing hard for the
opportunity to handle the money of
the taxpayers. The taxpayers know
that if the graft hunters-the variety
is practically the same in all cities
get into power, their money will be
spent so as to bring the most liberal
returns to the ring. The whole matter
is clear, open, fully acknowledged; yet
il appears almost hopeless to bring to
the registration offices those other
good citizens whose votes would ae-
complish triumph for reform in ev-
cry rymunieipality.-Philadelphit Ledg-
