SIX SEDITIONISTS TO BE
TRIED.

Six sedition cases on which charges
are made under the new espionage
act, are to be presented to the next
federal grand jury by the United
States District Attorney. The char
ges are against persons who have
made what the government authori-
ties consider disloyal or seditious ut
terances. The defendants are Lewis
Waskel of Elko, Tom Grass of Nina,
Emma and William Richards of Fal-
lon, Tony Denatei of Dayton and
John Delaney of Reno.
Since the war began the federal at
torney has had informed as alien enc
mics twenty men from different parts
OF the state. OF these four have been
paroled and FIVE have been sent to
Fl. Douglas for the duration of the
war. Others are in various jails.
Two alleged draft evaders we're ar
rested at Ely last week by depart
ment of justice agents and have been
bound over to await the action of the
next federal grand jury. They are

both are on their way to Reno in

HIGH MINING AT
MOUNT GRANT.

The highest point in the state
where mining development is being
done is on the top of Mount Grant in
Mineral County, at an altitude of over
1900 feet. John Lundberg has sunk
shaft there Is feet and crosscut OF
II feet is all in ore. He has run tun-
mel no feet and intends to crosscut
for what is supposed to be large
body OF ore. The ore will average
about 20 per cent copper and from
$40 to $50 gold. There is plenty OF
wood and water available. and the
mine can easily be worked by tun-
neling. Mr.. Lundberg is not financial
~ able to operate on large scale,
but will no doubt get assistance. Sew
eral years ago mining claims were
staked out on every foot of land in
this section. but little development
work was done. Near the Rockwell
ranch, at the foothills of Mount Grant
Mr.. Rockwell is opening some coppel
prospects that from all indication:
will prove to be rich finds. -Tono

SOAP SITUATION CRITICAL.

A new disease which recently ap-
peared in Germany is attributed to the
shortage of soap. So far the German
health authorities have been unable to
find a remedy for the malady which
is, called ''tricofita" and affects the
skin and hair The disease is. caused
by lack of soap and insanitary con-
ditions resulting from it."
The above dispatch taken from the
weeks news discloses the unhappy
condition of our enemies as regards
one of their most important necessi-
ties. During the first few months OF
the war the German people had al
ready felt the keenness of soap scarce
ness. Travellers returning from Ger
many at the time reported it was al
most impossible to purchase soap of
any kind in that country and that
where soap was obtainable it was
held at almost prohibitive prices.
Fortunately for Nevada, We have a
soap factory located in Reno which
fact will do much to alleviate serious
conditions should a soap crisis arise
and will also aid in keeping prices
near normal, the cost of freight
charges being eliminated in marketing
the local soap products
However, we are at war, we have
been victorious in all our past wars
and we are winning this war, soap or
no soap-but if you find soap at
double the former price the next time
you order some, then don't blame
your dealer. put the blame up to where
it belongs to old Kaiser Bill.
This is from one of our exchanges,
the Home Builder of Reno. We can
not help wondering whether there
is likely to be soap scarcity or
whether someone is, not trying to
get the public into a condition to be
proitee-ed by the soap men.

Frog Combine Under Investigation.

SA1 AAfN0NA61N@tA
Martin Donnelly, the frog king, was
in Mexico Saturday buying fly-nets for
his 1918 crop. Judge R. d. Rodgers,
prosecuting attorney, caught Donnelly
talking with Philip Shire, who recent
ly bulled the frog market. Judge Rodg-
ers that he will investigate
a suspected combine Of the frog indus
try based upon what he saw Saturday.
Shire claims he was comforting with
Donnelly regarding the threshing Of
his frogs, but the story, in some quar-.
tiers, is doubted. II is believed the two
men will be prosecuted for boarding
food as frog legs have been unusually
scarce this spring and both are known
to have raised a large acreage Of the
variety known as the Bullus Frogipus.
