although it was the best that could be
secured at the hands of the Interstate
Commerce Commission, and, there
fore, the solution OF the problem laid
entirely in conference and negotia-
lions with the interested railroads, so
this plan was pursued.
Slightly more than year ago these
carriers voluntarily abrogated the
premium basis and established rates
between points on their lines upon the
fiat Baltimore basis, which is to say
that the same rate be applied for a
Baltimore and Ohio station in Bal
timOre as for a Pennsylvania Rail
road station In Baltimore. The West
ern Maryland Railway for a long
time maintained the fiat basis in
connection with shipments from and
to Baltimore and Ohio stations but
did not in connection with shipments
over the Pennsylvania Railroad, but
recently has arranged for the same
basis with the Pennsylvania Rail
road, so that at the present time all
of the rates in Baltimore are upon
the fiat Baltimore basis and the same
rate will apply, irrespective Of the
point Of origin, for delivery at the
Baltimore stations.
Still Working For Retirement.
There is, however, in Baltimore no
change in the policy Of the carriers
rela ting to interchange switching in
Baltimore, and while efforts have
been made for quite a while to obtain
what is termed a per car basis they
have not as yet borne fruit, and the
interchange switching locally be-
tween points in Baltimore in COnnec-
ton with two or more roads is per-
formed upon the basis Of a line Of
class rates beginning with 1112 cents
per 100 pounds on the first class, and
ranging down to cents per lVV
pounds on the sixth class.
( Analysing the entire situation it is
safe for Baltimoreans to say that
there is no city in the United States
possessing both the unique and natu-
raj advantages as does Baltimore for
the development of her industries and
mercantile establishments, because
here by the exercise Of her different
advantages control may be obtained
over the business OF a vast section or
! the country and as a difference Of a.
few cents in the freight rate today
influences the placing of large num-
Der Of orders, Baltimore is in a po-
sition to show to anyone the decided
advantage, financially and otherwise,

LOCAL MINING NEWS

Three carloads Of ore from mines
at Hamilton we're shipped from here
over the local railway this week by
J. w. Nyce to the smelters at Salt
Lake.
Phil Martin and Harry Fault of
Ruby Hill have just secured a lease
of the Williamsburg mine on Adams
Hill and are arranging to commence
work on the property next week.
Ben Griggsby and M. NARROW, who
are working on alease in the mines
at Mt. Hope, we're in town a couple
of days the first of the week after
supplies. They report having recent
ly struck a bunch of ore that gives
promise of developing into a small
bonanza. D. Ferovini, engaged in
development work at Mt. Hope,
also came in with them in their auto
and returned with them Thursday.
The double compartment shaft be-
ing put down on the Connolly mine
on Prospect mountain is making good
progress. Commencing with We'd
nesday of this week three e%ight-hour
shifts were put on and the work OF
cutting a station at the 200-foot level
is nov going on. Manager Julius
Huebner, who is now living and max
ing his headquarters at the mine,
was in town last night and reports
that several %stringers of ore have
been encountered in the new shaft
within the past few days that are
encouraging, and he believes that
when a little more depth is obtained
there is a good chance of running
into an ore body. A dynamo capable
of furnishing 100 lights is now being
Installed at the mine, and when the
plant has been wired up electric
lights will be used throughout the
workings.

by Isadore Sara for surgical treat

thumb recently, which later devel-
oped blood poisoning, and his case

ports that his case is yielding to
treatment with conditions favorable

Two water pipes inside the Eureka
Garage that have been frozen up for
the past few weeks were thawed out
this week by electricity and both
hydrants are now in service again.
Manager W. H. Russell uses a 3-horse
power gasoline engine in developing
the necessary power to run the gar
age machinery, and this is thrown on
to a small dynamo at night M Iur-
nishes electric light for the garage.
All e the country where there is
sufficient electric power developed,
electricity is used for thawing out
frozen water pipes. and while Mr..
Russell doubted that his current was
strong enough to do the work. ne
made the proper connections and
started the dynamo. The first n.y.
drant commenced flowing in about
six, and the second one in eight min
utes, and the test was a complete
success. The Eureka Garage now
feels itself immune from the incon-
veniences caused by Jack Frost.

REQUEST FOR EXPRESSION
OF DESIRED LEGISLATION
People of Eureka County Urged
by Their Senator to Make
Known Their Wants

The SENTINEL is in receipt this
week of a communication from State
Senator L. R. Thatcher, representing
Eureka County, who on the w of his
depal ture for Carson to take up his
duties in the coming session of the
Legislature, which convenes on next
Monday, ~solicits suggestions from his
constituents regarding desirable and
needed legislation which they wish
to e enacted during the ensuing
session.
Senator Thatcher evidently feels
that the function of alegisiator sent
to the capital Of a commonwealth by
the people of a county. is to repre-
sent that people; and that in order
to best represent the people, he must
know their wants regarding legisla-
ton. His suggestion along this line
is a timely one and should be needed
by the people of this county.
Senator Thatcher is Manager Of
the Union Mines Company of Union,
one of the best producing mines in
this county. The following is taken
from his letter:
l regret very much that Ihave not
had an opportunity of visiting Eureka
before my departure for Carson City
to take up the reins and drive the
Eureka team through the legislative
tempest that is fast gathering on the
horizon, and talk things over with
my constituency; but owing to the
rapid improvement Of the Union
mine and the necessity Of prepared
ness" for the future Of a big lead
mine for Eureka County, it is simply
impossible for me to get away.
However, should there be any legis-
lation desired by any of the people
of Eureka County, if they will appeal
to me by mail or otherwise, | shall
be very glad to give such matters
my immediate and best attention.
1t is apparent at this date that
there will be various bills presented
during the coming session that will
demand very serious consideration.
My experience in the last session was
one that l did not expect. | would
have been very much pleased to
have had some advice from any or
all Of the people of Eureka County;
and not receiving any, | used my
own judgment, which seemed salts
factory.
In the introduction of any bills this
session that have any bearing upon
the interests of Eureka County in
any way. l would like some express
sion from those vitality interested. |
am in this office to serve the people
of the State of Nevada, and especial
lythe people of Eureka County, o do
not be backward in letting me know
your wishes.
With best wishes to each and every
one of you, | am
Sincerity yours,
L. r. THATCHER.
