Trying to Get
Back to Prison

George Gibson. good man sober
but very bad man when drunk, con-
vict or parole from Carson, was ship
ped out of camp at noon today Oh
the Tidewater line with the promise
of a position at Tecopa and a further
promise that he would keep sober,
| say the Goldfield Tribune.
Gibson's release on parole some
! months ago was followed by his go
ing to Reno. He was not encourag-
| ed to stay there and turned up at
Tonopah next. He spent the time
in Tonopah until last week when the
chief of police of the silver camp
suggested after a nasty saloon row
in which Gibson drew a knife that
Gibson was not wanted there. Then
the man disappeared.
1t now leaks out that he never lost
a minute in coming t o his old home
in Goldfield and has been sneaking
around back alleys V since. When
Sheriff Ingalls, heard about it he
spent some days in locating his nan
and providing a job for him, then
bought him a ticket and sent him
on his way.
Gibson shot and killed Eugene
Maunsell, a mining engineer IN
the Ajax saloon, Goldfield, in 1908.
Several times the jury disagreed AMI
finally he was acquitted on the
ground of self defense. He was re-
cognized .s a desperate character
when he drank and was in trouble
several times. Judge Somers, in set
ting him free after the verdict in
the Maunsefl case administered a
severe rebuke to him, and insisted on
his signing a pledge not to drink for
six months. Gibson signed but broke
the pledge and later tried t o kill Mike
Callahan. For this he was convicted
and sent to the penitentiary for four
teen years. He was pardoned about
a year ago.

AFTER THE HARVEST YEAR

The government is now in court with the big monopoly
known as the harvester trust. Years ago several rival manufac
turers Of agricultural implements were fighting each other to
see which could make the best machinery at the lowest price.
Then a man by the name of Perkins conceived the idea OF getting
the rival manufacturers together in one big concern. 1t worked
like a charm. The big monopoly made cheaper and less efficient
machinery and sold it at a higher price. They paid less wages
to their workmen and a high protective tariff still further aug
mented their profits.
When there was competition the parts of the machinery that
had to stand the most wear were made of the finest steel. Now
these parts are made OF the sOftest iron. A moving machine now
that stands two years is regarded as a wonder. They have, under
the high protective tariff, been sold for about a third less jill
South America than in the United States, where they re manic
featured. With the tariff reduced and the United States govern
ment after this gang of thieves the American farmer may be able
to fare better during the next few years.

date in the Field for
the Position.

New developments in the race for
the office of County Judge of Bay
field county took place this week
when Henry c. Rehm of this city,
pastor of the Congregational church
and lawyer, declared himself as a
candidate for the position.
Mr.. Rehm has had wide and varied
experience. Graduating from the
University of Wisconsin law school in
so he worked for years on the Mil
waukee daily newspapers and also
acted as Congressman Staford's pri-
vate secretary at Washington. For
several years he practiced law in Mil
waukee, specializing in probate law.
He has been preaching in Wisconsin
for some years and being born in the
state knows conditions in the state
unusually well.
Since coming to Bayfield, county he
has been a booster for this region.
In making his announcement Mr..
Rehm says that he expects to resign
his present position in case of election
as he has for some time contemplated
leaving the ministry, and that he will
therefore be free to give his entire
time to the office which he seeks.
He says that he has become so en-
thusiastic about Bayfield, county that
he feels himself: pioneer in spirit, if
not in years, and that his desire is to
continue to make his home in the
county where he can use his influence
TO boost for the rapid development of
this region. Mr.. Rehm expects to
make a red hot campaign for the
Office and he says that he is receiving
much encouragement from all parts
of the county.
With Mr.. Rehm in the field this
makes three avowed candidates out
for the position, the other two being
HI. P. Axelberg and William H.
Irish. Judge A. M. Warden is also
spoken of as a possible candidate.
All three of the above candidates
expect to put up hard fight for the
Office and the campaign will prove
interesting.

Peavey Introduces Bill

H. H. Peavey's bill providing
for a county board consisting of
from five to seven com missioners
to take the place of the present
county boards was introduced
in the assembly the latter part
of last week. The bill provides
that the counties are to be divid-
ed into districts with one com
missioner for each district. The
salary of the commissioners is
fixed according to the value of
the property of the county. For
example, in counties whose
assessed valuation does not ex-
ceed 5000, 900 the annual salary
per member would be $1OO.
Many people will favor Mr..
Peavey's bill, believing that the
business of the county could be
conducted more economically if
the size of the county board
was cut down to fewer mem
bers. In Bayfield, county the
| present county board consists OF
|25 members but under Mr..
4
Peavey's bill the board would
not exceed seven mem bers.
