TONOPAH'S

Tonopah, says the Gazette, seems 10 be looking square1y in the face
the problem OF perpetuating local self-government. The story printed
in the Gazette today from that great mining camp is II that should
command the attention and the serious study Of every hw-abldmg cit
c OF Nevada
The Gazette has printed from time to time evidences of the activity
of a revolutionary organization, with headquarters in an adjoining state,
whose operations we're clearly directed against the forces of law and
order at Tonopah. The evidence heretofore published by the Gazette
showed clearly that similar operations in the hop fields of California
were inspired from the same source as the operations in Tonopah.
The burning of the Nevada theater, with more han half a core OF
homes, following as it did the dynamite attack o n a newspaper, and the
shooting that preceded these acts, should force upon the people Oft the
state, as well as upon the residents of Tonopah the Importance of re-
storing a reign of law.
We cannot view complacenly the circumstances of this revolution
Try agitation in Tonopah-we cannot call it by any other name-whIe
lei are permitted to harangue crowds in the public streets, advising
defiance of the law, destruction OF property and life il necessary in
furherance of a propaganda that holds all law in contempt.
The people of that community face a problem that requires some
thing more than moral suasion. When people elect to office men VINO
will encourage such proceedings, daily with them, lend their moral
support and the prestige and protection Of official authority, then local
sefgovernment is under a test it canno long endure. Defiance of law
begets further defiance and when the men who are sworn to uphold
government lend themselves to its overthrow We have chaos, and order
a oe restored only by force. If this force may be the law and its
agents are insufficient, force without law is the common resort.
Order will be restored and perpeuated in Tonopah II the camp
and it's homes and its mines will be abandoned, and this latter is not
going to happen.

Fire at Oil Mill.

Between the hours OF eight
and nine O'Clock Saturday night,
fire was discovered in the seed
and hull house of the Tupelo Oil
and Ice Company. Those at the
mill Immediately turned on the
water from the local plant and
the fire department was called.
The fire department and many
citizens gathered at the alarm
and a heroic fight was made to
save as much of the contents as
possible. The combustible ma
ture of the seed and hulls made
it impossible to save the house
which was Of wood and soon en-
veloped in flames. Practically
the ettire house was on flre at
one time and the lurid flames
that shot high into the air bright
ened the whole town. Parties
at a distance telephoned IN 10
know if the entire town was On
fire.
After an hours fight with the
flames with all the hose that
could be brought to bear upon 1t,
the flames were checked and the
main portion of the plant saved
from destruction.
The house was soon consumed
and the work of saving as much
of the seed as possible was next
taken up, the water turned on
the seed piles and the flames
checked. This work was CON
tinued until the following morn
ing.
The fire department was given
aid by quite a number of young
men, who handled the hose like
veterans. The loss is covered by
insurance and adjusters Of the
company will soon be upon the

Increase in Bank Resources.

A few weeks ago we published
an article outlining the banking
resources in Lee county IN the
month of October, and such a
large gain has been made that
we are giving below the grand
total as shown by the statement
of the different banks Dec. 81.
These figures show how Lee
county is forging to the front
and taking the lead of other
counties in the state.
Lee is one of the smallest
counties in the State, but its fine
farming lands and the diversifi-
cation followed by our people for
many years has brought the
county to the front.
Below we give the grand total

Already a number of aeroplane fit

and are offered for sale upon the field.
Chief among these is the inclinometer
invented by a Curtiss in no way con-

This inclinometer caused some excite
ment among the fiiers around New
York city recently There arose diff
ference of opinion among them as to
whether the instrument was too SEN
sitive or not sensitive enough. It is
device for telling at glance three
things that a flier needs to know
that is, the direction and inclination
forward and back and the inclination
sidewise
1t consists of a spherical glass case
in the center of which is mounted a
compass. A weight is pivoted in two
planes and the instrument is gradual
ed so that the aviator can read direct
ly in degrees how much his plane is
tilted out of the horizontal or how
much the nose is elevated or DETECTED.
