hear, rather than after "all is done .

MORRISON IN
 AND OUT AGAIN
District Attorney Argues U. $. Side of Motions Be fore Appellate Court Then Hustles Back to Border Trouble Zone.

A week of "argufying" before the ninth circuit court of appeals at San Francisco was the pleasant diversion of United States Attorney Joe Nor rison. who reached Phoenix yesterday. Without days rest the energetic at torney leaves today for Nogales anu the trouble zone" along the border, where he will nurse the situation along with his usual care.
 The cases of James Hong and Will liam Stewart were those which attract ed the attorney to the large and wicked city of San Francisco. Stewart is fighting for his life, from sentence passed on him by Judge Morrow at the April term of the federal court, his legal wedge being an appeal from the decision of the second court which tried him for the murders of the cam pers, HilIpot and Kibbe in Gila county some time ago.
 The case of Jim Hong. probably much better known under the bookish title of the Bishops Cook has prog ressed from the federal to the appel late court on habeas corpus proceed
 ngs, the case now being to try whether it is possible to confine under the cer- tain conditions-a Chinese alleged to be in this country under false pretens- as The case has engaged the atten- ton of more than one grave and rev arend signior of the legal profession, to say nothing of the interest of certain leading lights of the cloth It deals with the presence in the United States If a Chinese, who is alleged to have forfeited the right to his chock gee by sojourning in the republic of Mexico for certain length of time The harge If perjury has also been lodged gainst Hong for swearing to the con- -ents of an affidavit. which he is al-
 eged to have known were false. MT Morrison has deep and abid- ng faith that some day the border
 roubIes will be cleared up He also believes that some day the troubled state of Mexico will be abated. The two beliefs go together. so to speak. But
 Inti Huerta or some one else pacffies Mexico very successfully and the war is over, and men cease to ship con
 raband ammunition to the parties south of the line. the work of the at torney will never cease. But
 Such is life in the far and woody vest.
 In the absence of Morrison. Riohey and Forrest are doing the work of pre- 1aring for the October term of federal .ourt-no small task
 While in san Francisco. Morrison saw Judge Morrow. who did not sit on eith r of his cases, having passed on col ateral phases of each while occupying he Arizona district bench before the appointment of Judge SawteIIe.

SUCCESSFULLY
 SAYS NOTHING
Judge Sawtelle Remains Very Silent About Fed eFal J. F. Appointments In State Will Be Some Changes.

There will not be a new commis- sionership created for Phoenix There were no federal justices of the peace appointments made by Judge SaWtelle yesterday. It is not now possible to say when changes will be made It also cannot be foretold just what these changes 1 will be- though they are admitted to 1 be possible in the course of political events. No. Not. Never.
 l It is a dandy negative story. 1 Judge SawtelIe, approached yes i terday on the matter of a persistent rumor to the effect that he would | split the work of the United States i commissioner in Phoenix by ap- pointing two such officers, was full of negatives. T do not now. see any good reason for making such a l change. At present the work of the commissioner is not heavy enough to warrant dividing it and tc create a new office and split the work and the proceeds would make
 the office very unattractive."
 Concerning the state of commis- sionerships in Arizona's new federal district. his honor said that: T will certainly make some
 changes, though 1 am not vet pre- pared to make the details public.
 intend creating the office of United ] States commissioner for Duncan in i Greenlee county, for the reason that i it is difficult to transact the heavy
 land business in that part of the state with only one commissioner and that one at Clifton I have the resignat!ons of two commissioners one at NogaIes A MT. McClay will be my appointee at Douglas-when any change is made The Tucson l commissioner has resigned. but l cannot name his successor as yet In this case l am familiar with Iocal i conditions, and here l cannot go l fully into the matter. Outside of that 1 cant say, for I have not had l time to look the situation over care | fully"
 Applications for the position ot | commissioner have been numerous Lots of folks want the job. In many cases. where there is extremely little cause to believe changes will be made. the flock of eager seekers is thickest.
 Judge Sawtelle is busying himself with the details of cases referred to hIm for decisions since the last ses-
  appointment There is a deal of work left over from the last term. which must be gotten out of the way before the actual trial of cases starts in the October term.
 Court Session Today.
 The law and motion calendar will be called at ten this morning. But two cases will be acted upon. and then the only action will be to set them on the term calendar. All the rest of the matters will be set over until Monday. October goth. The drawing of the grand jury men ana the empanelling of jurors so drawn will occur on Tuesday.

Strange London Figure.

A few years ago there used to stand
on the pavement of Oxford street In
all weathers n venerable white-haired
gentleman, dressed respectfully In
high hat and frock coat, who accosted
each member Of the throng Of sun
worshipers, moving eastward in tho
morning, westward in the evenings,
uttering in a quick tone of deep con-
Germ the single phrase, THE time il
short! The time is short!" No ono
stopped to listen to the old reVivalist,
or cared to hear the further words Of
warning which he would have given,
for all knew that he prated Of things
that did not really matter to the geri-
GUS city man.-London Nation.
End Of q Noted Poify.
The monocle has long since been
out of fashion in England, and is soon
to disappear from Paris, which has
been its last stronghold. It was In.
vented by Dutch dandy, and its evil
effects upon the eye were at once
noted by oculists. The monocle frat
appeared at the congress Of Vienna

REV. |. |. GORBY PHI. D.
(Communicated)

The Presbyterian church will be
specially favored tomorrow morn
ing and evening in the person of
Rev. l. l. Gorby Phi. D., who will
occupy the pulpit as a prospective
candidate for the pulpit. We be-
lieve that the people of Elko should
be informed concerning DR.. Gorby's
ability and his preparation for this
work and we also think that Elko
will be specially favo:ed by having
a man of this stamp in the COM
munity. This is of interest to those
who may lot be officially connected
with that church inasmuch as in
the selection of a minister according
to the polity of the Exc Church
the choice is made by the men,
bers of the congregation as well
as by the members of the church.
DIR. Gorby was born in Columbian
County, Ohio, taught school in his
native state during his college
course. was brought up on farm,
graduated from Mount Hope Acad-
envy in College Preparatory work.
was a student IN Mount Uni, n Col
lege, graduated A. B. and Phi. D.,
from Franklin College III course,
gra duated in Lane Theological
Seminary, held pastOrates in Gin
cinnatti, Ohio, and Chicago. ILL
nois, has spent the last two years
in Rend, Oregon, new and grow
ing town. While there DR.. Gorby
built the finest Presbyterian church
in the state east of the Cascade
mountains.
DR.. Gorby has done extensive lee
ture work in sociological problems,
lecturing in all of the towns ad-
jacent to Chicago. He HOLDS several
medals that have teen won in ors-
torical contests in eastern colleges.
1t is to be hoped that DR.. Gorbv
can be induced to accept the Elko

BULLION TELLS THE TALE

Half a carload of bullion is the
best way of advertising Tonopah
so long as the facts are not allow
ed to lie dormant in the records of
the companies. Men with money
invested in this district will look
upUn that sign as an evidence that
mining is perfectly legitimate
industry which thrives under the
fostering hand of capital and
through wise management. Had
this announcement taken in the re-
turns of last Friday when the Tono-
pah Mining company sent out bull
ion and concentrates valued at
500, 900 and the Montana shipment
of today valued at $50, 900 the out
put would have represented $780,

cords of the camp, which should

ly promoted by men who have no
material interest here and are in
the game only for the speculative
features. Tonopah is ON an in

much chance to wildcat or to &C.

mining calls for the real money
