NEWSPAPER RUN
BY GRINDSToNE.

A newspaper may have soul the
same as any other institution and &C.
casions do sometimes arise which give
this evidence to the public.
Down IN the big mineral belt OF our
fair state the weather entered the stu
alton in such a way that Tonopah,
Goldfleld and other southern Nevada
towns have been having one profane
lime for about a week. That section
of the country is dependent for light
and power on a few wires that stretch
into II from the White Mountains on
the California border. A storm arose
over in the California country and put
on one continuous performance for
several days. The two power lines
that were depended upon as big factors
in providing the usual Xmas cheer
were whipped and dashed in the storm
until miles of them were torn from
their moorings and broken up.
The mines of the big camps down
south were necessarily out of commits
sion. but the real sting was in the lack
of light for the Xmas celebrations and
the further distress of keeping the
newspapers from getting out the regu.
lar editions. 4 community can suffer
along for a few days without electric
lights, hut in these modern days to be
deprived of the light of the press IS TO
be reduced to abject misery.
A few days ago Tonopah was in the
throes of such an agony and then there
arose n man of the hour who, with a
simple little grind-5tone, put Tonopah
back in the land of the living and ey-
posed newspaper soul almost pure
white. And there was no axe to grind
In this case.
Without power TO run the linotype
machine 1t seemed that the paper
could not be issued. But a genius
came to the relief of an editor who
was suffering for his people and a
grindstone was brought into the shop
and belted to the machine. The Tono.
pah Times appeared in diminutiyc
form last Wednesday, but the people of
that town did not 90 without the light
OF the press.

cARRANzA A REAL MEXICAN

CarranZa finally sent in his reply TO
the proposed border protocol and the
State Department received II without
comment
The fact that Secretary Lansing re.
ceiYed 1t on the quiet means one of
two things. Tho reply was either sat.
isfactcry to the administration or the
first chief failed to give the admins.
tration cause to he cheerful. The
sum total Of the above. of course. leads
to the intelligent conclusion that until
official comment Is made mere citizens
can only consider the matter in a con.
jectural way.
However, the incident Is illuminat-
Ing on one point, which in turn throws
rejecting ray of light on the whole
situation. That Carranza has q deem
and abiding affection for the United
States Is cinch. He has said so him
self. But the evidence that the first
chief Is freightcd with an undyiug
love for us Gringocs has no violet per
fume on it. The Mexican boy with the
fine whiskcrs has also been listed In
the high-brow class and pushed out I'm
front of the common herd so all might
see the difference.
The State Department served notice
on the grand old man that his replv
or signature to the protocol was one
OF the things the United States could
not get along without after midnight
on Tuesday, tho Goth day Of December.
The notice was couchcd in no unccr.
tain terms. But the old sport had TAX.
CT chances before and lg still living
He had q hunCh that the U. S. needed
one more lesson in Mexican diplomacy.
So he waited until there was some
stir in Washington but was foxy
enough not to let II take the form of
definite action, and then he calmly and
with bland assurance handed in his
reply thirty.siN hours behind schedule
No wonder Lansing was specchless,
