IN SENATE.

tuesday, Feb. 9Th, 1879.
On the motion submitted for
requesting the President to strike
from the rolls of the Army OF
Navy such officers OF either a.
were engaged in the Duel recen..
ly in this vicinity between
Armstead Il. Mason and John
McCarty.
Mr.. Barbour addressed the
Senate as follows:
Mr.. President The event to
which the resolution relates has
filled me with the deepest attic
ton. l claim the melancholy
privilege of being the chief
m turner here. Mason was my
friend long and intimate ac-
q ,aintance ripened into a sincere
friendship by an association in
this body for several years, gave
M an opportunity of appreciatirg
his distinguished worth.
Virginia loved him as one OF
her favorite sons in war her
slIield---her ornament in peace
With her the very name was con-
secrated to patriotism, through
successive generations, its luster
lost nothing in the person of the
deceased. He united the amiable
qualities of the man to the higher
virtues of the patriot. His
loss will be mourned by his coun-
try as a public calamity. In the
yigor of life, uniting both II e
affection and confidence of all,
and surrounded by every blessing
that promised happiness, he has
suddenly fallen the victim of a
barbarous practice. Cut off in
the commencement of a splendid
career, he leaves a wretched
mother, a disconsolate widow, a /
fatherless child and a weeping
country.
Oh, what a scene was there;
but yesterday Selma was the
abode of happiness +; to-day it is
wrapped in mourning. See onl
yesterday the affectionate hus-
band, the amable wife, the ter

BOYS JOY RIDE
LAND IN JAIL

Maxwell Linder and Edward Bryant
have been brought to grief. They
took an automobile belonging to C. G..
Haskell at Lamoille several days ago
and drove it to Elko. They met with
an accident and the machine was bad
ly smashed up. The hind wheels are
reported practically demolished. They
patched up the injured car and re-
turned it to Lamoille where they left
it.
Linder has been placed under arrest,
and it is probable that Bryant too will
be taken into custody.
Mr.. Maxwell is a government official
with the interior department. He hats
been taking water records of Lamoille
creek.
1t has been a practice of certain
boys in this community to take Joy
rides in cars left standing about the
streets, and it was only matter of

Mrs. NJ. Lane, who died in Carlin Mon.
day afternoon, was laid to rest in
Gods acre. The funeral took place
from the I. o. o. f. Hall and was un-
der the auspices of the Rebekah Order.
Many of the old friends of the de-

butte of respect. and many came from
Carlin, her late home.
Although the deceased was not
blessed with an abundance of worldly
goods during her residence here, she
enjoyed the friendship and esteem of
the entire community and many will
sincerely mourn her loss.
May the God whom she ever wor-
shipped during life grant eternal peace

Officials stated this would revolu-
tionize the American attitude toward
House will accept the answer in good
faith.
1t is understood the note practically
admits the sinking of the Lusitania
was not in accordance with interna-
tional laws.
Officials here are jubilant. The
note is regarded as evidence that Ger
many is determined to avoid further
friction.
Diplomats hope this will prove the
initial step toward peace. The sweep
ing character of the concessions has
surprise all. 1t is pointed out that
the note really makes concessions 10
the allies as well as to America.
1t places England in an embarras-
sing position as she now refuses to
modify her blockade policy.
Chief Justice White calls Germany's
concessions TO America the greatest
stroke in modern diplomacy.
1t is believed when the full text is
available it will admit the sinking of
the Arabic.
sernstroff Says
Paves Way For Peace.
WASHINGTON, Sept 1.--Persons in
close touch with the German embassy
have stated that Count Won Bernstorff
believes the action of Germany clears
the way to peace. He feels that he
has reinstated himself in Americas
good opinion though the fact that he
induced his government virtually to
repudiate her submarine commander
regarding the Arabic will make his po-
sition at home unhappy.
Elko independent. [volume] (Elko, Nev.) 1915-current, 1915-09-01

WASHINGTON, Sept. 1.-Germany
has accepted the American submarine
demands. Count Won Bernstorff has
submitted to Secretary Lansing the
substance of Germany's answer to
President Wilson's last communica-
ton regarding the Lusitania. 1t con-
firms the assurances given orally.
In effect the reply comedies all the
demands of America regarding the
warning and the visit and search of
ships before they are sunk.
1t leaves open for future discussion
the past actions of German subma-
rines.
AS far as Secretary Lansing indicat-
ed there is nothing included in the
way of request for America to re-
ciprocate by taking up with England
the question of the British blockade
1t is thought this will be discussed
later.
Chief Justice White
Calls 1t Greatest Stroke
Modern Diplomacy.
WASHINGTON, Sept Count Won
Bernstroff rushed in an automobile
TO the office of Secretary Lansing as
soon as he received the cable from his
home foreign office. Not waiting to
present a written memorandum he de-
livered his message orally.
Then Bernstorff rushed back TO the
EMBASSY and translated the answer in
TO English and rushed n copy to Secre-
tary Lansing by special messenger.
The text of the memorandum says
in part: Liners will not be sunk by
our submarines without warning and
without the safety of the lives of non
combatants, provided the liners do not
try to escape and do not offer resist

How dear to hearts the annual rodeo
And the daredevil feats 1t presents TO view,
The steerriding contests. bulldogging and roping
And all cowboy tricks which the pioneers knew:
The bullfght eXciting-but with cruelty banshed,
The racing Of autos and OF heetfooted steeds,
The prizes and speeches awarded the winners
For the gallant performance of various deeds.
The parade on the streets of the City of Eko
The Indian fandango the prize baby show,
The meeting Of friends and relations and strangers
With true cordiality that westerners know.
The bands of music, the dances each evening
Where old schoolmaes meet and acquaintance renew,
And last but not least of rodeo festivities
Is the generous gift of free barbecue.

While Myra and the children are
over at neighbor's house for the
evening. I'll tell you about a Gagged
volume of an old New York Criminal
Code, and the bewildered Congressman n
Pettifog, Of the United States Of Bo-
hunks.
One day. in the year 1000 4. D., some
votaries of Edward Bellamy were es-
corting the investigators from the
South Atlantic island republic through
that section of the Municipal Museum
containing the relics of ancient juris-
prudence. when Congressman Pettifog
caught sight of the code in a glass
case. Amazement was delineated in
every line of his face.
why have you Gagged the code?" he
asked
Because we consider it dangerous to
society,"" replied John Smith. of the
Bellamy committee.
DO you mean that you no longer
have need for it," The Bohunkin was
incredulous.
Yes" said Mr.. Smith. .and for the
same reason that we have no use now
adays for lawyers. When lawyers
went out of existence. naturally the in
struments with which they tortured So
ciety went out also"
"Why-er. | don't understand" re-
turned the Congressman. In Bohun-
kis we consider lawyers the best part
of our society. And most necessary.
too. Take myself. l represent the So
called Frenzied Money district in our
national Congress. l have a splendid
clientele of financiers who pay me
handsomely for my services. 30 kind
they to me that very often Il help
them in matters of legislation.
\ laugh went up from the committee.
Back in the early part of the twen-
tieth century similar conditions eX-
listed in this country" said Mr.. Smith.
We had lawyers who doubtless were
very happy in representing financiers
in our old Wall street, who also pre-
tended to represent the people in con-
gress. / must admit. though, that they
