William Jones' had his hearing in
the municipal court this morning on
the charge Of having been drunk on
July 12.s He was found not guilty by
the court. One Of the witnesses was
Mrs. Otis Doison,, but her testimony
in court was not as strong as it was
before the trial. This morning she
did not seem to be SO sure that Jones
was drunk as she did Yesterday. It
seems that. Jones hired. a livery rig
and took Mrs Dolson's brother, John
Baldwin, for a ride about. the city on
the day, mentioned, and J, H. Mac,
beth, of whom the rig was hired, and
also the employees of the livery barn,
said that they did not think that
Jones was drunk. Mr.. Baldwin said
that he thought that the defendant
was under the influence of liquor, but
not very drunk.

I Jones testified that he had drunk
only two GLASSES of beer all that day.

see 10000 people here in the course
of the next two years, AT the pres

nothing that can be overdone in
Tonopah so long as the mines keep
up their production and new mines
are being added to the list constant
Ily. You will find that the lodges
are flooring out on the flat and
/ this means that Tonopah is good
for fifty or sixty years, You don't
hear any more of this ten year
camp talk that was so common a
few years ago. In San Francisco
the are speaking of Tonopah as one
pof the worlds wonders that is going
to beat the record made by the
best mining camp ever opened 1t
is not San Francisco alone where
this talk is being heard, but from
London. Paris and Berlin the mails
are filled with inquiries about the
famous silver camp of Nevada All
this portends investments There is
no stemming the tide. You may not
hear the whispering of the breezes
but in San Francisco hotel lobbies

plainly as you can read the false

THE PALsYING EFFECT
OF PROHIBITION.

ant chief of the Goldfield fire de-

force on the Consolidated. He has
Just returned from his former home
in Grand Junction where he was
summoned by the death of his father
and tells a striking story of the eff
feet of prohibition on that city which
has always been considered one of
the most prosperous towns in west
ern Colorado.
"At the last election the town
went dry and property deprecated
to such an extent that business and
residence lots and improvements
cannot be sold for any price" Mr.
Maxwell said Business has stag
mated and there is no money in cir
culation. This is due partly tc
the failure of the local fruit growers
association to find a market for the
surplus products of the Grand Valley
which have always commanded the
highest figures in eastern markets
All Colorado is suffering from infla
ton and wildcat irrigation and frui
promotion companies which unload
ed on investors at the top of tbs
market. Then the bottom dropped
out of the market and buyers were
left without any resources"

several offers for it. These, of
course, were not what could be ex-

and we had enough faith to hold
on. We have an immense surface
showing Of high grade cinnabar and
as far as we have sunk the values
gain with depth, and the size OF
the deposit increases. We have
opened up hole on each of our
claims for location work and in
each and every hole have opened
up good grade of cinnabar
I'VE are not doing much work al
present but this fall and winter we
intend to concentrate on one place
with the idea Of proving the continu
