Phillip Walters was killed yes.

OPENING UP THE COAL
DEPOSITS At COALOALE

The Darms Coal Mining Com
pany. which is operating proper
ty four and oLe-half miles west of
Tonopah. has force of miners en-
gagged sinking the new shaft, which
has now reached a depth of 360
feet.
This shaft is being sunk to cut
at that depth several bodies of coal
which were opened up in the old
shaft sunk on an incline to depth
of $50 feet. At that point the for
nation was badly broken up, but
the work exposed coal of CONNER.
cIal grade, but mining in this shaft
was abandoned owing to the fact
that it would have been necessary
to have gone to considerable ex-
pense in timbering before the coal
could be extracted. The present
shaft is now in more solid forma-
tion and it is believed that when
the coal bodies are encountered no
timhering will be required.-Tono-

TELEGRAPH IN AUSTRALIA

The Australian government has
fuSt put into effect u system of let
ter kilograms similar to our might
letters" under the new rules,
forty-word messages may be sent
for q shilling, or a little less than
twenty-five cents.
1t is interesting to compare this
service over the government owned
telegraph lines Of the southern
commonwealth with that given by
the private companies in the Unit
cd States.
The Australian government will
transmit forty words for less than
20 cents over any distance, while
IN this country the lowest rate for
a night letter, or for that matter,
any sort of message is SO cents.
The shilling traffic in Australia
also provides for the delivery of
the message by mail to any point
beyond the reach of the telegraph
lines. Some of the Australian
lines extend a thousand miles and
more. while the total mileage in
the commonwealth is $500. II is
worthy of note too, that in Aus
tralia the per capita use of the
telegraph is m,re than twice as
great ms in this country owing
mainly to the lower rates.
In these figures there is fuDd for
thought bearing on the question of
government ownership OF the tcle-
graph lines. S.-Sacramcnto Union.

PARCELS POST
INCREASES PAY.

The postoffice department has in
creased the compensation of the
star route contractors who carry
the mail from Elko. This increase
is due to the amount of parcel post
matter carried by the contractors.
The Tuscarora contract has been
increased s1O93.s5, which added to
s3396.00, his original bid, makes his
compensation Sd ,489.8
Bullion is increased $l33.2l,
making his compensation $483.21
Lamoille receives an increase of
S273.7S, which gives the carrier
slS53.7s.
The Sherman route is increased
S525.60 over his contract of S24OO.
The increased pay to each route
is based on the average number of
pounds carried within given time.

THE FEAR OF WAR

What shall we say Of the horrors
of war as means of leading men
to Peace! Same good men tell Us
that we should uot discuss wars
horrors, furies and atrocities, be-
rausc men cannot be brought to
peace through fear. This is true.
We would not have nen peaceful
through cowardicc, even If We
could. a brave man must brave
horrors if need be, as part of
the duty of manhood.
But he need not cause them.
Some ones crime is behind every
war. II is not fear of war we
would cultivate, but fear Of wrong,
fear that We may have some part
in making needless war. II is not
the fear of blood but Of blood
outlines We would develop. Tu
fear to do wrong Is not cuwardicc
IL is the highest courage. II is q
part Of that fear Of the Lord which
is the beginning of WISDOM

WORDS OF GOOD CHEER

The following from the Philadel-
phia Record should be very reas-
suring for tn. remnant of the
Gloomy Gus brigade that are look
ing on the dark side of everything
and predicting direful things that
are going to happen:
Charles NJ. Schwab has made
some discouraging remarks about
the future of business but his steel
works had their biggest year IN
1913; a coke plant to cost $4,000
600 is to be built at South Bethle-
hem at once, the product to be con-
sumed in Mr.. Schwab's furnaces,
ans he is reputed to have got
Chinese contract worth $50, 100000
for $25, 100000 The manufactur-
ing profits of his steel works last
year were $S,500,000, more tnan
$500, 900 in excess of the manu-
featuring profits o. 1912. The net
profit was equal to per cent ON
the preferred shares and 27.44 Der
cent On the common shares. Such
is the blasting effect of tariff 'tink-
ering' on our great industries"

BOOSTING AURORA

James I.ally and W. d. Copper
noll of Aurora, were visitors in
Hawthorne last Monday. Like
everyone else in Aurora they are
enthusiastic over the outlook of
that place. They report that the
Goldfield Consolidated company has
a large force of men working day
and night sampling the property,
and it is generally believed that
the Goldfeld company will take
over the property. With the OPEN
ing of the roads, the ~achinery
that has been accumulaiing at Hud-
son is being brought in and the
mill rushed to compl .tion. Not
withstanding the fact that large
numbers Of men are going into
Aurora, there are few idle men
there and the tosn has live hust-
ling appearance. With the influx
of prospertors and miners, many
new discoveries have been made
and old claims are being developed.

hauled into town and brings so
