UNFAIR POLITICS
Of CANDIDATE FOR
SUPREME BENCH
ELko FREE PRESS RESENTs A
MISREPRESENTATION BY
JUDGE COLEMAN.

It has been the cry of all politicians
for number of years that the one
office in the gift of the people which
should be taken out of politics is that
Of supreme justice, and failing to do
this that the man elected to this Of
flee should in no sense be a poll
tician This has been brought very
forcibly to our attention this week
by the receipt of one of Ben w. Cole
mans circulars, the only one we have
seen, in which he is appealing to the
people for support on grounds of
misrepresentation. Part of the cir
cular reads as follows: Il am the
only Democrat from eastern Nevada
asking for recognition, while there
are numerous candidates from west
ern Nevada, which section now has
two judges on the supreme bench"
We can not understand Judge Cole
mans attitude in making the above
assertion, as the present incumbent
4 Judge Talbot who is a candidate for
reelection, is a lifelong Democrat
has been a resident of Elko county
for many. many years, and stands
high in the estimation of the whole
state. To publicly acuse Judge Tai
bot of not being a Democrat, when hi
has been elected on that ticket, will
be resented by every fair-mindet
Democrat, and will cost Judge Cole
man many hundreds of votes mex
Tuesday. This kind of politics, CON
ing from a candidate for the highes
judicial office in the gift of the pee
pie of the state is to be deploret
: and the man who will stoop to US
these methods does not deserve
single Democratic vote. Judge Ia
bot is Democrat, an honest, who'll
souled, pure-minded gentleman, VIII
has been identified with Nevada fC
more than a decade, and we al
proud to call him friend.-ElR

Evening star., 1914-10-25

"Why, seem to have read of the Scowrers
in Chicago. A gang of murderers, are they
not?"
"Hush, on your 1ife!" cried the miner, stand
ing still in alarm, and gazing in amazement
at his companion. "Man, you won't live long
in these parts if you speak in the open street
like that. Many man has had the life beaten
out of him for less.
@Well, I know nothing about them. It's
only what I've read"
3And I'm not saying that you have not
read the truth" The man looked nervously
round him as he spoke, peering into the
shadows as if he feared to see some lurking
danger. "If killing is murder, then God knows
there is murder and to spare. But don't you
dare to breathe the name of Jack McGinty
in connection with it, Stranger; for every
whisper goes back to him, and he is not one
that is likely to let it pass. Now, that's the
house you're after, that one standing back
from the street. You'll find old Jacob Shafter
that runs it as honest a man as lives in this
township"
II thank you," said McMurdo, and shaking
hands with his new acquaintance he plodded,
gripsack in hand, up the path which led to
the dwelling house, at the door of which he
gave resounding knock.
TT was opened at once by someone very diff
ferent from what he had expected 1t was
woman, young and singularly beautiful She
was of the German type, blond and fair
haired with the Diouant contrast of Dair of
beautiful dark eyes, with which she surveyed
the stranger with surprise and pleasing en-
barrassment which brought wave of color
over her pale face. Framed in the bright light
of the open doorway, it seemed to McMurdo
that he had never seen more beautiful pic
ture; the more attractive for its contrast with
the sordid and gloomy surroundings. A lovely
violet glowing upon one of those black Stag
heaps of the mines would not have seemed

more surprising. So en-
tranced was he that he
stood staring without a
word, and it was she who
broke the silence.
Il thought it was Father"
said she with a pleasing
little touch of a German ac-
cent. "Did you come to see
him? He is downtown. 1
expect him back every min
ute"
McMurdo continued to
gaze at her in open admira-
ton until her eyes dropped
in confusion before this
masterful visitor.
@No, Miss" he said at
last, am in no hurry to
see him. But your house
was recommended to me
for board. 1 thought it
might suit me and now I
know it will"
Evening star., 1914-10-25


There was chorus of friendly "Goodnights"
from the other miners as they passed from the
platform. Before ever he had set foot in it,
McMurdo the turbulent had become a char
acter in Vermissa.
The country had been place of terror;
but the town was in its way even more de-
pressing. Down that long valley there was
at least a certain gloomy grandeur in the huge
fires and the clouds of drifting smoke, while
the strength and industry of man found fit
ting monuments in the hills which he had
spilled by the side of his monstrous excava-
tions. But the town showed dead level of
mean ugliness and squalor. The broad street
was churned up by the traffic into horrible
rutted paste of muddy snow. The sidewalks
were narrow and uneven. The numerous gas
lamps served only to show more clearly
long line of wooden houses, each with its We
randa facing the street, unkempt and dirty.
AS they approached the center of the town
the scene was frightened by row of we'll lit
stores, and even more by cluster of saloons
and gaming houses, in which the miners spent
their hard-earned but generous wages.
"Thats the Union House," said the guide,
pointing to one saloon which rose almost to
the dignity of being hotel. @Jack McGinty
is the boss there"
"What sort of a man is he?" said McN1urdo.
"What! have you never heard of the boss?"
"How could l have heard of him when you
know that am stranger in these parts?"
"Well, | thought his name was known clear
across the country. It's been in the papers
often enough"
"What for?"
@Well," the miner lowered his voice, cover
the affairs"
"What affairs?"
aGood Lord, Mister! you are green, if I
may say it without offense. There's only one
set of affairs that you'll hear of in these parts,
and that's the affairs of the Scowrers"

A FEW minutes later
n the train ran into
the ill-lit station, and
there was a general clearing;
for Verrnissa was by far the
largest town on the line.
McMurdo picked up his
leather Cripsack and was
about to start off into the
darkness, when one of the
miners accosted him.
"By Gar, Mate! you
know how to speak to the
cops" he said in a voice of
awe. at was grand to hear

"You are quick to make up your mind,
said she with smile.
ANYONE but blind man could do as
much" the other answered.
She laughed at the compliment. @Come

by the stove in the front room until Father
comes along All, here he is! So you can
fix things with him right away"
A heavy, elderly man came plodding up the
path. In few words McMurdo explained
his business. A man of the name of Murphy
had given him the address in Chicago. He in
turn had had it from someone else. Old Shat
ter was quite ready. The stranger made no
bones about terms, agreed at once to every
condition, and was apparently fairly flush of
money. For seven dollars week paid in ad-
vance he was to have board and lodging.
So it was that McMurdo, the self-confessed
fugitive from justice, took up his abode under

events, ending in far distant land
CHAPTER II. The Bodymaster
McMURDO was man who made his mark
quickly. Wherever he was the folk
around soon knew it. Within a week he had
become infinitely the most important person
at Skaters. There were ten or a dozen
boarders there; but they were honest fore
men or commonplace clerks from the stores,
of very different caliber from the young
Irishman. Of an evening when they gathered
together his joke was always the readiest, his
conversation the brightest, and his song the
best. He was a born boon companion, with
a magnetism which drew good humor from
all around him.
And yet he showed again and again, as he
had shown in the railway carriage, capacity
for sudden, fierce anger, which compelled the
respect and even the fear of those who met
