nure were found a couple of skid
boards which had evidently been used
to slide the beef into the wagon, as
they were covered with blood and hair.
The team that took the manure out
was driven by Milne and Elmer Swa-
sey. This is substantially all of War
ren's testimony.
Will Conway was then put on the
stand and substantiated i'll every de
tail the story above told.
p. J. Conway, the owner of the cat
tie, swore to his mark on the beef
the watted nose and to having lost
other cattle.
Johnny Williams, the next witness,
corroborated the testimony above
given in every particular.
Officer Bulkley's testimony sub
stantited the testimony OF the other
witnesses and to arresting the defend
ants. He was on the stand yesterday
morning when the attorney for de
fendnts waived further hearing and
testimony and placed no witnesses on
the stand for their side of the case.
The Justice of the Peace then placed
each defendant under $1,000 bond.
1t transpires that Mr.. Conway lost
something like $1,000 worth OF cattle
from his fields last fall and winter,
and has missed about $500 worth so
far this year.
The case is lamentable one from
the fact that it involves the son of
one OF our most prominent and up
right citizens, John c. Young, and
the relatives of other well-to-do and
honest people There is not an ac-
quaintance of the Young and Penrose
families but who deeply regret the af
fair and would be glad to see some
way out of it for the boys.
However, there is ano, ,h,r side 20
the case There has been considerable
cattle stealing going OF in this valley
for some time past. 1t was a surprise
to those who traced Ills last job to
not believed that they are to be
| blamed for all the losses that have
| occurred to stock men. 1t is a fact
| that the outside cattlemen are 10th
to come to Mason Valley to feed, and
as an illustration of this Mr.. Conway
stated that he recently tried to sell to a
Reno cattle man field of feed he had
purchased here The Reno man re
marked that he would not take the
pasture free and move his cattle IN
here, as he would be loser by the op-
cation. This is certainly bad name
to have on the outside Il may be
that the Times will be ceusured for
making such things public, but it is the
truth, and the quicker the people here
recognize that such things as this are
what is hurting our valley as a COM
munity, and get to work and clean
the situation up, the sooner will we
be given credit for being a decent
law abiding and criminal-punishing
community by the outside world. The
time is past when cattle thieves are
hung, but there should be some pun
ishment meted out for such offenses
We. are informed that overtures
have been made to the Conways and
Warren to call this matter off and
that threats have been made to in
timidate them. If such Is the case
t is the wrong spirit-a spirit thai
will never bring people together to
i've in peace and harmony in any
community.

RECOVERIES
BY OIL FLOTATION IN
WHITE PINE COUNTY

Although the imagination OF the
public was bewildered eight years ago
when the ingenuity of western min
inc engineers brought to light and
commercialized within few miles of
our own doors one of the largest de-
posts of low-grade copper porphyries
ON the globe, yet the efforts OF the
pathliindcrs in that new field OF en-
deavor pales into insignifcance in com
parison with the results accomplished
at McGill through the oil tlotation
process. says the White Pine News.
In spite OF the fact that the new
system is in operation at all of the
lacking properties, the best results
have been obtained at the Steptoe
plant OF the Nevada Consolidated

contents OF the tailings show onl,
from l5-100 to 3l-l00 OF one per

better than 90 per cent is extracted.
An cxemplification OF what is be
ing done at McGill is shown throrgh
the statement that the entire recov
cry OF the plant was raised from oo
to II per cent through the operation
Of one OF the improved units. In the
past the tailings used to show as much
as sixteen pounds OF copper, and
through the new method a reduction
to two and a hall pounds has been
effected.
The metallurgical department of
the different Jaekling properties
throughout the west has guarded with
the greatest secrecy the experiment.
that have been conducted during the
last four months at the Utah Copper
Chino. Ray and Nevada Consolidated
Previous to the erection OF the ex
perimental plant at McGill, but few
people had any conception of what
was being accomplished, and those
who have been given an inkling a,
to results regard ii as nothing short
Of marvellous.
1t has been demonstrated at the
Utah Copper that from seven to eight
more pounds OF copper can be saved
to the ton than under the old meth
ods in vogue. 1t is anticipated thai
the recovery of by-products will be
practically doubled. and that the
amount OF the red metal saved to the
ton will be at least twenty-five pounds
When both the Magma and Arthur
plants are in operation at Bingham

ing copper will not exceed four and
thrcc-fourthS cents pound.

YEARS ago the political sin of nepo-
tism was the theme of criticism, by
Democratic papers, MOI have they
ever ceased in condemning the max
ing Of holding public office "a family
affair" The Grant, as we'll as the
succeeding Republican administra-
tions, speaking nationally, were
honeycombed with nepotism, and the
G. o. p. State governments closely
followed in the practice. 1t was view
ed then, as now, by Democrats as
reprehensible; but never a word of
de~uunciation came from the Republi-
can press. 1t seems to hold that
Nepotism is wrong in principle when
practiced by Democrats, and fit for
indignant denunciation, but to be
%charitably and complacently ignored,
if not defended, when indulged in by
Republicans. How comfortable such
a partisan cast Of conscience!

ABOUT fifteen years ago the Globe

'looted" by the Democrats, and all
the little following barked and yelped

dignant and their tender feelings were
lacerated over "the robberyn of the
poor, little public school children.
Later, when it was shown by the re-
cord that the so-called footing enact
ments had been made with virtually
the unanimous votes Of the Republi-
can Legislators, the clamor suddenly
ceased and silence profound as that
of the innermost depths of the Mann
moth Cave ensued. After their
manner, nothing was retracted,
though they shrank from the glare of
the light Of truth. No "lootlngD had
been done, nor had it been attempted.
