NEVADA PULLS
OFF ANOTHER
RICH SILVER
DISCOVERY
Omitted Press service)

TONOPAfI, Nevada, July 2S.-A new
strike of rich silver ore reported from
Cactus Nye county, on the Cactus
Nevada silver mines property, report
ed today, has caused renewed excite
ment in Tonopah, and has caused a
rush of miners into the Cactus dis
trict.
Ores uncovered at the 150-foot
level of the mine named are reported
to have assayed an average better than
100 ounces silver alone to the ton.
with small gold values.
Picking up right on the surface a
nineteen pound nugget of solid native
silver, yesterday, and reported here
last night, has added to the intensity
of the excitement, and the madness
of the rush. 1t is reported that many
leases of ground are being made in
the vicinity of that find and a num-
Der of sales outright are said to have
been negotiated.

The demurrer filed by the Rainier
Company's attorneys set forth that the
complaint filed does not declare to
be intoxicating beer containing more
than one-half of one per cent alcohol.
A written statement by Judge
Sawtelle accompanying the ruling on
the demurrer, says that the ruling it
self should not be construed as hold
ing a 2.75 per cent beer not in
toxicating.
Government officials say new
complaint will be filed against the
Rainier officials with the word Gin
toxicating' inserted in the proper
place in the text to make it meet the
point suggested by Judge Sawtelle's
communication. In other words the
new complaint will be framed so it
Will charge that any beer with an
alcoholic content exceeding one-half
of one per cent is intoxicating, and
that manufacture and sale of beer
with more than that amount of al
cohol is prohibited, with pains and
penalties provided for violation of the
prohibition; and evidence will be sub
mitted that the Rainier Company manu-
factures and sells beer the alcoholic
content of which is 275 per cent
more than five times the alcoholic
content in beer that will be set forth
in the new complaint as intoxicating.
So the ruling of Judge Sawtelle
sustaining the demurrer in the case
against the Rainier Company has set
tied nothing.

for an irreverent remark he made in
n debate with Senator Lodge, Argu-
ing that the ideas of Washington in
the Farewell Address, and of Presi-
dent Monroe were out of date, the
distinguished professor said Wash
ington's Farewell Address was great
document in its day, and so were the
Ten Commandments"
So caustic We're the expressions OF
the country over the attitude of the
college president that he has found
it necessary to regulate the meaning
his words conveyed, In a, published
letter DR.. LEVEL says:
II do not know why made, on the
spur of the moment. the remark about

I did not mean that they had become
in any way obsolete. No allusion TO
the Ten Commandments appeared in
my speech as | prepared it before
hand, or in the revised edition, which
has been since published with my
authority"
Recent events abroad may serve to
convince the head of Harvard that
the Father of His Country had longer
vision and was a safer guide than
another collegian who has undertaken
things against which Washington
warned.

THE PROGRESSIVE TOWN.

1t is fairly easy to start a progress
sive movement. in a town. But it
soon runs up against difficulties.
Progress is unfortunately not always
on level and easy paths. There are
difficulties, adverse chances, to be
faced. The temptation IS strong to
be discouraged by such difficulties,
and to settle down into a drifting
spirit.
A town can't progress unless there
is live spirit of enterprise and will
ingness to take a few chances. The
town that wants Il new industry may
have to put up money to get it, At
once everybody can think of cases
where towns did that and lost their
investment.
Yet the trouble in nine times out
of ten was that they invested without
thorough investigation 1t is aston
ishing how people will go into schemes
without looking into them. They will
put thousands of dollars into a propo-
sition, when a hundred dollars spent
in study of the men who proposed it,,
of their records, abilities and equip
ment would have convinced everyone
that the thing was a pure gamble.
However, if there is chance to
locate some desirable industry. and if
after investigation the thing looks
thoroughly good, the live town will
take some chances on it. You can't
win out merely by sitting on your
money bags. People have to spend
money to get it.
And they will frequently turn down
a chance to help some young man
start in business in their home town,
where they could help him succeed
and direct his progress, and will then
send money to some far distant field,
where it quickly disappears in the
hands of slick or visionary promoters.
If you are going" to risk any money
on u proposition not absolutely a sure
thing, risk it here in Albuquerque,
where you can watch it.
