HOWE CANDIDATE
FOR u. s. SENATE

The Silver State is in receipt of the
following communication from A. II.
Howe of Goldfeld, announcing his can
didacy for the United States Senate:
Having ascertained that the senti-
ment of large number of people, in
various walks of life, throughout the
state, is in favor of the election of a
business man to the United States SEN
ate, | have decided to seek the Repub-
lican nomination for that office.
The experience and training which
L feel have equipped me to serve the
state in that capacity are as follows:
In the year 1886 / entered the service
of the United States Express company
in New York City in a subordinate ca
pacity Careful application to duty and
self Improvement enabled me to as
sumo from time to time duties of en-
larging Importance, resulting in my
finally becoming assistant to the pres
ident. Ny duties in that position re-
quired me to handle large business af-
fairs both in the United States and in
Europe. During this business relation
ship, which lasted for twenty years,
and incidental thereto, it was my good
fortune to be connected for twelve
pacity with the work of the United
States Senate. While connected with
the United States Senate I became ac-
quainted with the late Senator Nixon
who invited me to associate myself
with his interests in Nevada, and in
the year 1906 I took up my residence
in Reno, and became associated with
his banking enterprises. After resi-
nf4 4xvo In nh
Nixon's request became the secretary
and treasurer of the Goldfield Consoli-
dated Mines company, taking up my
residence in Goldfeld, where I have
since resided. During my residence in
Goldfeld have been engaged in
large number of diversified business
enterprises vital to the welfare of the
state.
/ have always believed, and I now
believe, that the interests of this state
and of the United States are best
served by adherence to the funda-
mental principles of the Republican
party, and if nominated and elected
my ambition and inclination will be
to apply to the duties of the office and
the furtherance of those principles the
same qualities of application, industry
and Intelligence which have maintain
ed me in my former and present busi
ness associations.
1 discover growing appreciation on
the part of the public of the fact that
the activities of government are dis
tinctively in the nature of business ac-
tivities, and that the establishment of
conditions, which make for the Geo.
nomic welfare of communities in their
relations to other communities involve
merely intelligent business adjustment.
The idea of sending to the Senate a
business man of broad experience and
training having met with statewide
approval, it is with confidence that I
announce myself as a candidate for the
Republican nomination for the United
State senatorship.

FOUND DEAD
IN HOTEL AT ELKo

A man by the name of w. F. Bennett
was found dead in the Elko hotel Sun
day afternoon, and the indications
point very strongly to suicide. He
came to Elko a few days ago from
Salt Lake City, and engaged room
at the Elko hotel. When repeated
knocking at his door failed to elicit
any response the door was broken open
and he was found lying in bed wrapped
in the deep slumber of death. No evil
dence Of any struggle could be seen
and at first it was thought that he had
died of heart failure, but on searching
his effects a number of capsules were
found that contained cyanide of po-
tassium, and it is now believed that he
was a victim of self-destruetion. A
glass of water was found on a chair by
the bedside, partly emptied, by the
side of which was an envelope contain
ing the poison, and it is thought he
took capsule, washed ii down with
drink of water and lay down calmly
to await certain death, which would
come instantaneously with the disso-
luton of the gelatine capsule, as this
poison is the most effective known and
causes instant death. From letters in
his pockets it was found that his par
ents lived in Altoona, Pa. and a tele-
gram to them brought the immediate
reply to ship the body back east. II
is said that his father is a well-to-do
business nan of that place, and that
the dead man, who is 33 years old, has
been a wanderer, having served in the
United States eavalry.-Free Press.

CONSIDERABLE ACTIVITY
AT COPPER CANYON MINES

Jack Mattison, well-known placer
miner from Copper Canyon, is in Win
nemucca on business. Mattison has
been in the placer fields ever since the
boom days of Bannoek of 1910, and
thus has been fortunate in owning
some good property. He states that
about seventy men are engaged by the
Dahl placer operations and that about
30 other workers nearby are busy
washing gold. Added to this number
are the quartz miners.
He reports things in good shape in
that section.
"When pending litigation" he stat
ed, son some of the best and richest
gravel workings in the permits opera
tions on tied-up ground, the working
force will be doubled and you know
there is nothing like a placer camp
when in full blast as producer.
"Those placer deposits are surpris-
ingly rich, richer than the average per
son imagines, and it is hoped for the
sake of the community and the par
ties involved that a decision in the
disputed ground will be reached in the
near future. Should this happen soon,
look out for real live action in the
placer fields of Lander county"

CAMP JARBIDCE NOW
A CONSISTENT PRODUCER

Charles s. Hawkinson, a well-known
miner from Jarbidge, is doing Winnie
mucca for business. Hawkinson says
things are looking very bright for Jar
bidge.
"The properties under operation,
such as the 0. K, the Bourne Buster,
Flake and Long Hike, are not only
looking good but are producing AMI
blocking out large quantities of mill
ore.
"The Success and Bluster mill is
steadily reducing ores and turning out
about $4,000 a month in gold bullion.
One of the best strikes ever made in
the Jarbidge section was recently made
on the Long Hike. Besides the old ore
bodies the owners recently encountered
an ore shoot upon which a drift has
been run for $50 feet, and cross cuts
at every 40 feet show 90 feet of ore
that averages $50 per ton. This is the
biggest showing in the district Twenty
feet of $S ore would be big thing.
While driving ahead on the ore the
owners have started a lower tunnel
down the mountain side to cut this
shoot. This will give an additional
depth of 200 feet and should the ore
shoot show the same conditions and
proportions at this depth as above,
then the Long Hike viii be proven
big mine.
"Jarbidge has had much snow dur
ing the winter, but, notwithstanding,
mine operators have been busy and
giving added proof of the permanent
golden wealth of the camp"

MILL OPERATOR BELIEVES
IN THE FUTURE OF ROCHESTER

James Cavaney and wife are making
a temporary stay in Winnemueca, Cav
aney is a well-known business man and
mine operator at Rochester In his
opinion, and he speaks by the cards,
there is no question as to the rich fu-
ture of the Rochester section.
"This year will prove more mines
of the paying class in the Rochester
section than any mining section boasts
of in the country" said NJ. Cavaney.
- New developr ents are proving the
consistency and greatness of the dis
triet all over it's large and intensely
mineralized zone. Mining in Humboldt
county is beginning to come into its
own and Rochester is proving the in
spring aim of this great natural en-
terprise. -

DOGS DEFEND CHILDREN
FROM RABID COYOTE

Mrs. o. L. Crossman, wife of the see
tion foreman at GRANT Point, Sunday
displayed an unusual amount of hero
ism for woman, when she shot and
killed a coyote in her back yard that
was in the throes of rabies.
Her attention was attracted to the
animal by the fratnie barking of the
tamily's pet collie which showed hu-
man intelligence by remaining between
the two Crossman children and the
mad coyote until his canine calls for
help resulted in the appearance of Mrs.
Crossman and her quick despatch of
the denizen of the desert.
The two Crossman children were
playing in the back yard when the
coyote appeared. 1t was snarling and
biting at everything that came in its
way.
In the yard at the time were the two
family dogs. The collie instantly got
in between the children and the coy.
ate. The other dog sought to drive the
animal away.
He rushed savagely at the intruder
and engaged it in a fight while the
other dog got between them and the
children and began barking. The col
hes harks attracted the attention af
Mrs. Crossman.
She quickly discerned that the coyote
was mad, and returning to the house,
secured a rifle and instantly dispatched
the animal.
Mrs. Crossman then made a careful
examination of the two dogs to ascer.
'ain whether either had been bitten by
the coyote. 1t was found that the dog
that had attacked the eoyoe had been
bitten several times.
II was deemed advisable to kill il
although it had shown exceptional ca
nine sagacity in attacking the intruder
in defense of the children. No skin
lacerations were found upon the collie
so its life was spared.-Review- Miner

TOMORROW Ash WEDNES-
DAY, BEGINNING OF LENT

The Lenten season commences on to-
morrow, Ash Wednesday. The name
" Dies Cinerum," which it is termed
in the Missal, probably dates from at
least the eighth century. On this day
the faithful, according to ancient Gus
tom, are exhorted to approach the altar
rails before the beginning of mass, and
there the celebrant places ashes on the
forehead of each, making the sign of
the cross, and saying the words: Re
member, Man, thou art but dust, and
into dust thou shalt return" The
ashes used in this ceremony are made
by burning the remains of the palms
or evergreens blessed on the Palm Sun
day of the previous year.
