in the legislature of 1913 and Were
approved by the legislature of 1916

constitution they were then submit
ted to the people for final approval
or rejection at the general election

Cutting Estate
Out Of Courts
MINERAL TERRITORY AT HAhIL-
TON, ONCE OWNED BY MIL
HONAIRE CANNER, Is BE-
QUEArHED TO TRUST COMPANY

The estate of Francis Cuttily. who
was known throughout the western
states twenty years ago as million
aire Gamer and packer with head
quarters in San Francisco, was settled
In the district court last Wednesday,
when Judge MeFadden approved the
account of the executors.
The petition recited that the pay
ment OF executors fees had already
been arranged for, and that the par.
ties interested as heirs or beneficiar-
les executed assignments Of interest
to the Francis Cutting company.
When Hamilton was attracting
worldwide attention In the early sew
enties as a producer of silver ores OF
phenomenal riches, Francis Cutting
invested a portion of his wealth in
that treasure zone. With the decline
in the price of silver, and the depart
ure of the bulk of the population to
more alluring surroundings, Cutting
ceased to operate his mineral hold
ings.
For almost thirty years his prop
critics remained idle, and although at
tempts we're made to obtain leases
from the Cuttings, their efforts were
doomed to failure, until three years
ago, when Mayor A. B Witcher sue
ceeded In getting hold of the Cutting
estate at Hamilton. He worked the
ground fer almost year. but the
heavy royalties demanded by the Cut
ting family from the leaser reduced
the financial returns very materially
The holdings of the Cutting COM
pany include the following patented
mines In the White Pine district:

had the long end of the fistic engage
fent. He contended that Gilbert
was the aggressor and had forced the
fighting in the majority of rounds.
No wonder the mathematicians of
old were sad because the problem
that was racking their souls remain
ed unsolved. No wonder the crowd
was sad when they ascertained thai
three distinct rulings had been hurl-
ed into the ears of the audience.
AS far as the main event was con
cerned, II was not of type that
would stir mems souls. Frequent
clinching through the ten rounds
marred what might have been a
battle of real worth. The Bio hall
has never been the scene of any
knockouts during the last ten months
and the crowd In attendance was urg
ing the principals to uncork one OF
the sorphorific type. During the
first half of the battle, the crowd be
came real enthusiastic. believing that
there was possible chance for their
desires to be gratified.
AS the bout progressed, however
that idea was doomed to an untimely
death Lester, who was displaying
loss of energy in the four spasms, be
gan to force the fighting. and as late
as the seventh the crowd began to
realize that both disciples of the ven
erable Marquis would still be on their
feet. Gilber' clearl. demonstrate
that he was au in-fghter of no mean
order. Lester also displayed tactfcs
of a similar nature. The policy
adopted by the two fighters kept
Musick busy in every round prying
them apart, whet the crowd demand
ed that they be separated.
Eddie Johnson and Parry Baker
entertained the fanciers for foui
rounds. The performance was Of a
slam order. Science was tossed into.
the discard pile. It was a slugging
match pure and simple. The bout
was declared a draw.
Kid Lee and Kid Teeter went
four rounds. Lee was adjudged the
victor by Packey Mcfarland, the third
man in the ring. He demonstrated
that he was good Judge of distance
and peeked Teeter about the face al
most at Will.

PROTEST AGAINST ROWDIEs
At FOOTBALL GAME

Editor News: Something certainly
should be said publicly about some
things that happened last Saturday at
the football game between the
Ely and McGill schools
The class rush was enjoyable as
well as the football game but the
worst came after the games were
nearly concluded. Some Of our high
school boys, no less than eight or
ten OF them. rooted very strongly for
Ely which was all very proper.
McGill also had some very enthus-
iastic rooters. among them being Mr.
Rell, their Principal and coach. All
went well until McGill got ahead and
then our high school boys could en-
dure it no longer and began to throw
missiles of all sorts at Mr. Bell and
his team McGill said nothing but
played their game. Mr.. Bell was
hit and had a suit of clothes practi-
cally spoiled. but still he was too
much of man to say anything about
1t or get angry about it. Now, lest
this should happen again, think
these boys should be reprimanded
for their actions. McGill sends a
good number of High School students
here and we should encourage that
but instead of this encouraging at
tendance to our high school it will
discourage It. Had the McGill boys
or their professor been at fault in
any way. 1t would not have been so
bad. perhaps. but as il was the whole
blame falls on our own boys.
This certainly Is what you call a
"hoodlum" trick and think ! speak
for Ely in general when ! say that
this sort of thing should be dealt
with severely. We want McGill to
take part in our sports as they have
done and we want to encourage
their students to attend high school
and this surely is a poor method to
do IT, Perhaps it was thoughtless-
ness on the par, of the boys. but II
II was and If n ey don't think them
selves they should be made to think.

The problem that baffled lot of

the hands of their friends and like

that the hands may be many and

They were defying the tightening
