Howard w. Taylor was granted
O divorce from Esther l.. Taylor
by Superior Judge Card Thursday
morning. Taylor asserted his
wife made 1t a custom to lie in bed

other amusements nearly every
evening and sulked when he re-
fused; and that she had three
times gone to her mothers homo
and threatened not to return.
Tome Urata, on the other hand,

ALL REPUBLICAN PAPERS
ON LANES BLACKLIST

1t is still fresh in our memory when
Franklin X. Lane issued his famous
orders that only newspapers friendly
to the administration" should be given
government advertising; and follow
ing this order made out a blank list
of the newspapers that should receive
no patronage. The Free Press was
placed On that list and since that time
has never received one thing from the
Federal government. In spite of this
fact we have given the land Office the
only publicity it has had from any
newspaper in this district, and have
always given the government what
free advertising it has asked for. Now
comes the administration and asks
the very papers which are on the
blacklist to assist it in gaining re-
cruits for the navy; and there is no
doubt but we will be asked to assist
in many ways-to give freely to the
government what we ask pay for from
private citizens. And the administra-
ton has our assurance that we arc
standing back of the government and
will assist in every way in our power.
But we would suggest that Mr.. Lane
burn that blacklist and instruct the
Federal officials to abide by the same
rules which were in effect when the
Democratic party went into Office

MINING BROKER GREATLY
PLEASED WITH ROCHESTER,

X. L. Colburn, a San Francisco min
ing broker, came in yesterday from
Rochester, where he examined the
Friedman properties. Seen at the
Eldorado this morning by a Silver
State representative and asked what
he thought of the camp. Mr.. Colbuln
replied:
"The Rochester and Rochester Com
bined mines are sure to become the
greatest mining properties on this
coast. On the latter mine there has
recently been opened up the most
~stupendous vein known to Western
mining circles. IL has been crosscut
for more than $50 feet and show S
values Of from SIS to $40 per ton for
the entire width.
I'VE look for the best mining year
we have had for some time," contin-
ued Mr.. Colburn. For the past six
months the San Francisco exchange
has transacted more business than
for any like period since 1895"
