NEW YORK, April S.-Charles ID.
Hilles, chairman of the republican
national committee, today made pub
lie the proposed plan 10 decrease the
percentage of the southern and ter
ritorial representation IN the repuD-
lican national convention in 1916,
and thereafter from approximately
35 per cent of the toal voting
strength % less than 16 per cent, as
provided in resolutions adopted by
the committee at it's meeting last De-
cember.
The plan is addressed to the repub-
lican conventions OF the severai
states, which are asked to ratify the
action of the national body before
January /, 1915. A special commit
tee composed of Charles B. Warren
of Michigan, Senator William E. b.
rah of Idaho, and former Governor
Henry d.. Hatfield of West Virginia,
drafted the report of the action TAX
en- in December which embodies
other resolutions adopted by the ma
tional committee. These guarantee:
RECOGNITION, in the call to be is
sued fol the next national conven-
ton, of line right of any state to pro-
vide for the election of delegates in
direct primaries.
The right of any state to elect all
delegates from the state at large, or
part from the state at large, n part
from congressional districts.
These provision we're adopted with
a view to eliminating contests before
the national body such as in the past
have produced discord and dissen-
sion.
Some members of the national
committee, spurred on by the insis-
tent demands OF a large body of vot-
ers, sought to have the committee
call a special convention for the pur-
pose of adopting a new basis OF rep
resentation, but the opinion prevailed
of those who maintained that mas
much as no methods were provided
by the existing laws of the various
states for the election of delegates to
such a convention in direct primary
elections, the special convention
might not represent the sentiments
and desires of a majority of the
party.
1t was resolved that the national
committee consider the question, for
mulate it's conclusions and submit the
result of it's deliberations for ratifi-
cation by state conventions. In re-

TONOPAH MINING co. OPENS VEIN:
DEVELOPMENTS IN OTHER PROPERTIES

quartz being stained with rhodonite
or pink manganese.
The development is of immense
importance to the company, giving it
a new source of ore supply with every
indication that a large tonnage will
be developed.
Merger.
What will probably prove to be
the most important development ever
made in the Tonopah Merger mine
occurred this week on the 1170-foot
level where a new body of splendid
ore was encountered in the north
crosscut from the west drift.
Since the vein faulted some months
ago on this level, the west drift has
been extended on a body of quartz
of great width carrying milling val
ues with streaks and punches of bet
ter ore. this vein being in Montana
breccia formation. Recently a ross
cut was run from this drift and at a
week an ore body in the contact Of
the breccia and West End rhyolite
foi nation which has now been
proved to be over 10 feet wide and
its FIJI width is not yet determined.
Before entering the vein a normal
fault was encountered, on which
gone rich drag, ore was found, and
this threw .ko footwa]l of the vein
IT, the southwest and the footwall has
rot yet teen picked up. The cross
cut was continued through the faut
and showed a width q over 10 feet
Of orc &c Tie hanging-wall.
On the hanging-wall side of the
vein a body of ore over 2 feet wide
is exposed averaging over 500 a ton
and next to this is a width of 5 feet
of ore averaging Over $40 a ton, the
remainder of the vein is of mill grade
but near the footwall some streaks
of very good ore are showing.
This is undoubtedly the eastern ex-
tension of the Murray vein in the
Tonopah Extension mine and should
extend for about 500 feet On its east
ern course back to the fault and pos
sibly beyond and on it's western
course will continue for about 10
feet before entering the Sand Grass
claim where it is being developed by
the Tonopah Mining company.
North Star.
The North Star mine in the month
of March produced 92S tons of ore
and milled at the MacNamara mill
S47.23 dry ions of the gross average
value of $21.91 a ton, making the
gross production for the month $751;
$50.
During the month a total of 563
feet of development work was &C
complished and while total operating
costs have not yet been compiled 1t
is estimated that the net profits for
the month will amount to approx
mately $4,000.

not admitted as citizen Of the United

Sanford B. Dole. The case was CON
tinued until 10 o'clock tomorrow morn

The question was brought out re-
gaTding certain features Of the con-
duct of paper alleged to be conduct
ed by McYeagh. as Of doubtful moral
ity.' said Judge Dole in statement
to the Star Bulletin following the hear
ing. The question also came out as
to whether his expression of relying
or scurrility as a method of discussion
was an objection to his admission as
a citizen of the United States on two
grCunds-first as To its morality and,
second, as to its harmony with the
requirements of the statute that an
applicant for citizenship be shown to
be we'll disposed to the order and hap

At the request of Judge Dole an
exhibit was introduced in the hearing
in the form Of a copy of the publica-
tiCn Of July 80. The court quoted
from certain article wherein Gov
eTncr Pinkham was referred to as
political mCnstrosity, that he had
lied and whined his way into office"
and that he was "cant;ng hypo-
critic"
Judge Dole asked Mcyeagh if he
did not think this to be scurrilous
language.
Il believe in telling the truth. and
the truth sometimes hurts" McEeagh
