NEVADA PRESS COMMENT
BLEEDING NEVADA

Reno Gazette: The recommends
ton Of the district traffic committee
of the railroad administration in the
matter of establishing a rate to the
Thompson smelter which will permit
that important Institution TO COM
pete with Utah shelters, will deter
mine pretty well whether railroad
managers and Federal officials pro-
pose to continue in effect the discrim-
inatory freight charges against the
State of Nevada.
In this particular case the Mason
Valley Mines Company, which has
q large smelling plant a Yering-
ton. is compelled to pay on r ship
ments from nearby territory a rate
much in excess OF the rate to Utah,
which is several times farther dis
tant. Notwithstanding that the ores
are produced in this vicinity and can
be economically treated in Nevada
the manipulation of rate-making has
been such that the mine operators
r compelled to ship them hundreds
Of unnecessary miles to distant smelt-
Ing outfits, which not only take an
artificial profit from the State Of
Nevada and eastern California but
which contribute nothing whatever
to the development of these districts.
The discrimination complained of
is only one Of the hundreds from
which Nevada suffers. While con-
siderable relief has been granted to
the State from time to time by the
Interstate Commerce Commission In
the matter of transcontinental freight
rates upon goods shipped from east
ern points, Nevada continues to be
bled by unfair rates applied to local
particularly those origin
ating in its territory.
There Is no just reason why a Ne
vada smelter should NOT be allowed
just as low a rate per mile upon ore
shipments as a powerful combination
Of smelling interests located in Utah
or California. The district traffic
knows this. but it remains
to be seen whether it will really try
to deal Justly with the situation or
whether it will be controlled by spec
ial interests.

ling at so cents per ounce At this
price the mine is just about breaking
even, meeting its payrolls but paying
no material profit.
Then the price Of silver goes down
to below SO cents per ounce. This
won't pay expenses, so the owner OF
the silver mine has nothing left to do
but close up his great warehouse of
silver, discharge his men and quit.
This is precisely what happened
some years ago in the silver industry.
Mines that could break even at so
cents per ounce had to quit when the
price Of silver went below that figure.
The mine owner turned the key In

cases he threw the.key In the river.
Great storehouses Of silver wealth

THEODORE DYKE
NOT A CITIZEN
Former keokuk Resident Has Voted

Now Finds He Has No
Right to Vote.

To have voted for twenty-one years
although he was not citizen, has been
tbe experience of Theodore Dyke q
former Keokuk man, who now lives at
Kansas City. :,
His name was taken off the poll
books at that city after he had exer-
cised all the rights of citizenship for
many wears. and it was his attempt to
establish his citizenship that brought
to light the facts in the case.
When a small boy he came with his
father 10 this country and lived in
Keokuk until 1894. He had supposed
that his father was a naturalized citi-
zen, and, as minor he had also be-
come citizen Of the United States.
In writing to County Clerk Vollers
he stated that he was sure that his
father had voted at the Harrison
Cleveland election in 1888. and asked
that the poll books be examined to
determine whether this was the case.
But an examination of the books
from the years 1883 to 1889 did not
