lot OF work is to be rounded u this
summer at the Springs as Mr..

that it will be known over Western
Nevada as the one spot where natural
! warm water and good treatment can

There is q mining row on the Com
stock that bids no good 70 the old
camp. The Mexican Mining Com
pany has served notice on the other
mining properties that unless they
come forward with their indebted
ness for deep pumping, the Mexican

tors to keep up their payments.
Should the money fail to be forth
coming the lower levels of the mines
will become flooded and this would
mean practical abandonment in many
instances. The situation is critical a
admitted by many and il will take a
lot OF diplomacy and squaring Of

gether and resume mining on the
broad scale that benefits all. 1t ia
hoped that u settlement will be reach

NO ASSAYS
WITHOUT PAY

The L. S. Geological Survey Press
Bulletin contains the following, which
is OF more than local Interests:
Attention is again called by the
United States Geological Survey at
Washington to the fact that it does
not make analyses or assays of ore,
minerals. or metals. for private par
ties. Many specimens ana samples
are received by the Survey. accom-
panied by requests for such treat
ment, with which it is impossible to
comply.
The force Of chemists employed in
the survey is small, and their time is
fully occupied by their regular off
cial duties. The Geological Survey
has no facilities for making gold and
silver assays. The most that can be
done is for the Survey biologists TO
give an off-hand opinion based on a
simple examination OF the specimen.
IF an assay is desired, the proper

THE FAILURE
Of ONE LAW

in looking over the late laws that
passed the two houses, Governor Cd
die has found a number OF errors,
probably one of the mistakes that
will be regretted by many at least
was that on Assembly Bill III. This
was introduced by Mr.. Harrington
and was aimed to correct evils that
had existed in the State University.
and gave the power OF action TO the
Regents instead OF to DR.. Stubs.
The bill passed the two houses and
seemed to be all right. On examina-
ton it was found that it lacked the
signature Of Speaker Brandon.
which renders the law imperative.
Just how this mistake or oversight
occurred it is hard TO state. Had the
bill been presented to the Speaker he
would have signed it. It happened
in the rush hours OF the last night
and the law is a dead one for two
years at least.

A LESSON FOR THE LAW ABIDING
LAW BREAKING SHOULD
NOT BE TOLERATED.

The people of jefferson county
have paid dearly for Iaw-breaking
within its borders. Two young
mulatto boys have been swung into
eternity at their hands, after an
indiscriminate slaughter of hu-
man beings. black and white, by
them, drink-crazed as they were
and irresponsible from the use of
cocaine that some law-breaker sold
them.
The horrible outcome of the
drink, the drug, the crap shooting.
the poker playing in the lynching
of these boys should impress a
lesson upon the communities that
tolerate lawlessness and dangerous
characters.
No community courts the climax
that eliminated in Jefferson. but 1T
invites just such an outbreak by
the federation of crime and law
breaking often known to exist and
lunrestraIned or condoned for rea-
sons that appeal because of certain
local influences.
1t was no race riot over in Jeffer-
son; it has been proven it was no
preconceived plan to kill and play
the wild. 1t was just, the outcome
of the selling of whisky and cocaine
to young boys. who were well
known to be bad niggers"-boys
who shot craps and wanted to kill
everybody when drunk and filed
with the drug.
After the drink and the drug had
had their perfect day and good men
were slaughtered at their hands,
the boys were strung up and killed
by an outraged populace, several
officers having been slain by the
two negroes. There was cause fol
desperation and the arousement Of
1 the worst passions of men; but The
Leader deplores the Iypching along
with the causes that led up to it.
! People all over the State are
playing with fire just as Harriston
and Jefferson were-just as Brook
haven and Lincoln are-and some
day in blaze, famed by the furieI
that their own Indifference creates,
their good name will become re
proach even if they are spared th'
deed that jefferson would have
most unwiIlingly performed ii
calmer mood than that aroused b.
the terrible incidents of last Sun
day morning.
And we do not mean to impnts
unusual blame uncommon negli
gence-or rare indifference; but w
do mean to warn our people gen
eraIIy against the common. every
day, customary delinqueneies o
men that if permitted to prevail
in the face Of the law. will bring
the extremity Of human passion
in an unguarded moment and th
lives { + many will be ieopardized an
the lives of others shadowed b
calamity that will touch the hear
( and the home al well'as the com
immunity and the State.

Lane, former policeman, being
tried for the murder Of Mack Ward,

Lane from all guilt for the killing

that would have caused him to kill
Ward other than to save his own
life. District Attorney Wall inn
pressed on the jury the returning
Of not guilty verdict if the jurors
did not believe the evidence Of two
witnesses against Lane, whose
evidence was strongly impeached.

Of the same witnesses was also
