BE TAKEN THIS WEEK IN
SAN FRANCISCO.

The district court has set the case
Of the state VS.. f. b. Weir for trial
on November 18th, when it is said
that the suit will be pushed to a

ment in connection with the opera
ton of a brokers' office where, it is
alleged, the defendant appropriated
stock of customers to his own use
by hypothecating it in San Francisco,
The case has been continued from
time to time on an affidavit of Weir
that Nat Boas of San Francisco was
material witness, without whose
testimony he could not safely go to
trial. Now that Boas has returned
from Europe, his deposition will be
taken in San Francisco, as he says
he cannot find It convenient to come
to Tonopah for the trial.

but an evil master unless itself mas
tered by character. This was true
of individuals and in larger sense
true of nations. American republics,
north and south, had shown in the
past again and again, curious for
getfulness of this precept. A repub-
lie could prosper although the aver
age man We're not brilliant; a repub-
lie could not prosper if its average
man became infirm of mind and soul,
if he feared hard labor, if he sought
to rise by ways that represent wrong
to his weaker brethren.
"We citizens Of the various com
monwealths of the New World are
engaged in a double task Colonel
| Roosevelt said I'VE are endeavoring
to retain without loss the cultural
civilization inherited through our
forefathers who came hither from
the Old World, We are also en-
deavoring so to develop and adapt
this Old World civilization as to
purge it of whatever evil is mixed
with the good therein, to bring forth
new good, and to fit and adjust it to
the peculiar needs and opportunities
yielded by the western hemisphere.
Both sides Of the task present grave
difficulties.
The work Of conquering a new
continent is one Of incredible hard
ship The men of greatest cultiva
ton are rarely fit for the task. Only
men OF rugged viii and bold and ad
yenturous temper can undertake it
The strain on the pioneers engaged
in the feat is such that under it they
tend to lose something of the culture

down to us, and for this it is ou
duty to devise remedies.
