THE NEED FOR JONES

We listened attentively for sew
eral days to the three-cent fare
hearing conducted at the capitol
by the Corporation Commission.
After it was all over we were
forced to admit that one of the
visiting railroad men summed it
all up when he said, What a
hi of a fix the Corporation Com
mission would be in if it wasn't
for Jones'" We agree with the
gentleman perfectly. Geary and
Cole, the other two members OF
the commission, know as much
about the merits of the three
cent fare proposition as Milford
Winsor does about common de-
cency, which is nothing at all.
On the other hand, Commissioner
Jones knew exactly what he was
doing every minute and the man
ner in which he made some Of
the railroad attorneys squirm and
twist to answer his pointed and
pertinent questions was pleasant
to behold. 1t is doubtful if there
is a man in the west who knows
as much about freight and fare
rates and the general conduct OF
public service corporations and
common carriers as Commission
er Jones. He is invaluable asset
to the people of Arizona and does
"a great deal to carry the load
caused by the dead weight of the
other two commissioners and
t h e ir expert. "-Dunbar's S

WOMEN OF G~OLDFIELD
FIGHTING HIGH PRICES

The Woman's Club of Goldield
moved by the increase in the price OF
foodstuffs since the opening of the
European war. has sent a telegram
to the Nevada delegation at Wash
ington urging it to support any meas
ures proposed by Congress looking
toward an investigation of the in
crease of prices.
The Goldfield Tribune says: THE
Tribune does not believe in reitera-
tion as a usual thing. but there is
one subject that 1t believes should
be kept before the public at this
time. That is the matter of the ar
bitrary increase in the price of food
stuffs by the mel who are holding
up the European war as a DOGGY
man.
ALREADY Goldfeld has entered
the nationwide fight against this inn
position, the Woman's club through
Mrs. Sprague, having sen kilograms
to the Nevada members of Congress
urging them to give their support TO
the Investigations that have been
started by the Department of Com
merce. This action was timely.
I'm many cities of the country
there are organizations known as
housewives leagues. These organi-
cations are getting busy and the word
has gone out to inaugurate a boycott
against certain articles of food. Last
winter when the price of eggs was
aeroplaning the housewives league
branches through the boycott, put an
effectual kibosh on the egg market.
No doubt concerted action through
cut the country will now have the
same good effect. At any rate II is
worth trying. There is no real g
son for war prices in the United
States at this time and already there
are tales of great suffering among
the poor of the East who cannot pay
the prices demanded for foodstuffs
by the rapacious hueksters.

FIND DEAD BODY
OF MISSING MAN

The dead body of Frank A. Muhl-
| boyer, an old-time Comstocker. was
found the past week near the sum-
nit of Burns ravine leading from
| Carson street by Russell Lamerton
and Fred Thomas, who were in the
hills on horseback in search OF o dog
that had been missing for seyera:
days. While riding up the ravine
they noticed the body of a man lying
on the ground in a shady part of the
ravine, and upon investigating found
that ii was Muhlbeyer. The body had
evidently laid exposed for a day Or
two, for decomposition had set in.
Messrs. Lamerton and Thomas at
once came to town and notified the
authorities. Undertaken. Joe Kenney,
officers and others went to the ra-
vine and brought the remains to the
undertaking parlors.
The body was in a reclining POSI-
ton. it being apparent that Muhlbey-
er had sat down to rest, for he had
taken his hat off, and placed a rock
on it by his side to prevent it blow
ing away. A water bottle was found
by his side. Deceased has not been
seen about of late but nothing was
thought of it, as he frequently took
a walk about the surrounding coun-
try. George Wilson states that he
saw Muhlbeyer on the road near
Steamboat Springs Sunday evening,
and it is probable that he was on his
way to Virginia from Reno. a jour
ney he frequently made. To cut off
a long trip over the road. he took 4
short cut across the mountain. and
evidently stopped to rest or sleep for
the night at the point where the body
was found. He also walked often to
