P|0CHE PUBLISHER
VISITS STATES CAPITOL CITY

When talk in a Reno hotel lobby the
other evening had turned to old-time
Nevada mines, L. H. Beason, formerly
editor of the Phoebe Record. told of
the activities of Lincoln county a
dozen years ago. Beason is the man
who installed the linotype in the Rec
ord office. He conducted the paper
'tbout ten years. Afterward he served
Tor time as editor of the Nevada
State Journal in Reno and then went
to the Los Angeles Times. Now he is
n branch of the movie business and
has forsaken the newspaper game. He
is in Reno on film business.
AS there were three or four newspa-
per men in the lobby party the talk
gradually turned to that line. Beason
told of Phoebe troubles after the big
Meadow Valley wash flood of Decem-
Der 81, 1909. when a hundred miles Of
Salt Lake Route track was washed out
and the country was without railroad
connections for six months. A stage
route from Phoebe to Modena, Utah.
brought in supplies for printshop and
stores 'and mines. No one else in the
party remembered this big washout of
the Salt Lake. Beason remarked that
during the reconstruction period Cali
ente was one lively camp, supporting
twenty-five saloons.
Beason was member of the Nevada
assembly of 1915, when the six-months
divorce law was returned to the stat
ute books. He was chairman of the
committee on enrolment. He is much
interested in the republican contest for
nomination for United States senator
this year. He said it was beyond his

the formerly much priced sweet was

cents a pound.
Officials of the department said
yesterday that a further drop in the
price of sugar might be expected
soon, as many dealers are being
forced to release large stocks of
sugar through frightened bank cred

cision that prices would rise again
as soon as the present furry passed

LAY BADFAITH
TO COAL MEN
Federal Trade Commission
Thinks Operators Are
Playing Stacker.
Public Ledger Service.

Steady reduction in the number
of bituminous coal operators volun-
tarily reporting monthly production
costs to the Federal Trade Commits,
sion, which has been going on since
January, yesterday caused the COM
mission to charge bad faith on the
part OF the National Coal Associa-
ton, the organization of operators
contesting in court the commission $
authority TO require the reports.
The charge of bad faith made
against the coal association is in
connection with the court action
already taken by the operators.
Claim Agreement
It is asserted by the members
of the trade commission that it was
understood between the commission
and officers of the coal association
that the necessary default notices
and other acts to complete the
record in four test cases should be
instituted by the commission and
pending these four suits the coal
association would take no steps to
discourage or interfere with the
voluntary cost reporting by opera
tors.
Instead of bringing the four
suits" says a statement authorized
by the commission yesterday, 'the
National Coal Association brought
but one suit, in which the questions
involved were most favorable to the
and the other three
suits have never been started"
Charges Are Denied.
The charge OF the commission was
denied yesterday by
counsel for the Coal Association,
which made the counter-charge that
the responsibility for failure of fur
ther cases to be instituted was with
the Trade Commission.
Admiral w. S. Benson, of the
Shipping Board, recently announced
that the boards agents were being
forced to pay from s1S to s19 per
ton for West Virginia bunker coal
at Norfolk and other Hampton
Roads ports.
