CONDITIONS REMAIN
UNCHANGED IN TONOPAH

Tom Bath and Anthony Zurich
made a flying business trip to Tono-
pah. leaving here Sunday at midnight
and returning Tuesday morning, says
the Ely Times.
Mr.. Zurich reports conditions in
the silver camp very unsatisfactory.
but states that another conference be-
tween the mine operators and the
miners has been called, which might
result in an agreement being reached
whereby the miners would return to
work. But as a matter of fact a ma
jority Of the people are skeptical over
the outcome, as both sides seem I'M
willing to recede from their original
stand. The outcome of the confer
ence should be known at this time,
as the meeting was to be held within
AZ hours from last Monday.
Mr.. Zurich stated that there were
about 500 men employed in the camp,
but that the business houses were
not receiving the benefit of the pay
roll as the miners purchase every
thing they need from the mining
companies and rarely come down
town.
Mr.. Zurich states that many of the
local people censure the management
of the various mines for this practise,
and claim that it is done as a retalia-
ton measure, because the business
men sympathized with the miners at
the time the controversy arose over
wages. But II is the opinion of Mr..
Zurich that they furnish the miners
everything they need in the way Of
food and clothes right at the mine as
a matter of expediency, on account of
their employees being attacked by the
former employees of the mines when
they go down town. Regardless of
the reason, this practice is having a
very detrimental effect on business in
Tonopah, and everyone is praying
that an amicable understanding will
be reached in the near future.
MI. Zurich says that all State po-
lice have been withdrawn except ten,
who are under the direction of Cap
tain Rainier. Street fights are COM
mon occurrences between the old and
new employees" says Mr.. Zurich, and
the only reason they are not more
numerous is the fact that the present
employees do not venture out on the
streets often.

WHITES AND INDIANS
CLASH ON FISH RIGHTS

Claiming that a law passed In the
last session Of the Legislature for
bidding the sale of trout caught by
Indians in Pyramid lake has caused a
great hardship for the Indians there,
p. T. Lonergan has prohibited all
fishing by whites without special per-
nit and has refused a permit to Dean
Guy s. Mulberry of the University of
California and three other members
of the faculty of that University, says
the Gazette.
From time immemorial the Indians
of Pyramid lake have caught the
beautiful lake trout there and dis
posed of them to their fellow tribes
men or to whites without hindrance
and the supply has ever been ample
and even increased" Lonergan stated
in a letter to Mulberry. These poor
people depended upon the sale OF
their fish. for they have but five acres
of agricultural land each. from which
to sustain themselves otherwise"
As a result of the new State law
suffering and hunger will probably be
experienced during the coming Win
ter, the superintendent says, and the
Indians are greatly embittered agains,
their white neighbors.

What chance would slow-moving

les? Very little. Same answer to
the question, What chance in war
hereafter will slowly moving battle
ships have against swiftly flying air
planes?
Formerly in case of attack by a
foreign feet the country would have
relied upon its ships going out to
hunt the enemy feet and on its coast
defense guns. Now flying machines
on the Atlantic or Pacific coast could
be concentrated at n spot in TWEEN
ty-four hours and a fleet attacking
could be sunk in twenty-four minutes
with bombs of the right size.
All Important future fighting will
be air fighting. When the automo-
bile was invented they put dash
boards on the front of the machines.
forgetting that there were no horses
ahead of 1t to kick up mud. After a
year or so they took OFF the dash
boards. The battleship will be about
as useful in war five years from now
as the dashboard vas on the motor.
This country. which developed the
flying machine, ought not to be abso-
lutely last to realize its Importance.

CURRENT COMMENT

Lord Northcliffe, able citizen, half
English. half Irish, is here. Read
what he says, you'll find 1t worth
while.
He says England is disarming az
fast as she can, because she has beer
studying Germany. She sees that
with a million young Germans work
ing at home. producing goods and
raising families instead of wasting
their time in the army and navy. Ger
many will build up rapidly. England
doesn't intend to let Germany build
more rapidly than she does.

Ten years ago II a man had landed
at the bottom Of a dead volcano pit
with walls a thousand feet high
around him, you would have said
goodby to that man. Conditions
change rapidly. Now R. G. Fisher,
flying for the United States Forest
Service. lands in Crater Lake in a re-
mote part of Oregon. His machine,
although unchanged, will not fly. He
needs spark plugs ard he uses his
wireless apparatus. A flyer comes
along, drops spark plugs with a par
achute and Fisher flies out of the
crater pit.
Flying machines are hunting rum
smugglers on the ocean. An English
jockey flew to France. won his race
and few back in time for dinner. II
is a new era.

The following is taken from an
article In a recent issue of the Rail-
way Age calling attention to the in
creasing danger of a coal shortage:
There is nothing in present condi-
tions to justify the belief that unless
the production and transportation OF
of coal speedily increase the country
can avoid a coal shortage this Fall
and Winter. AS already indicated, IL
there should be a revival of business
activity the shortage would be seri-
Gus The Interstate Commerce Com
mission has become so alarmed re-
garding the situation that Chairman
Clark has made a special appeal to
the railways and public utilities to
increase their purchase and storage
of coal. Many of the railways and
| public utilities are doing so, but there
is a limit to the beneficial effect this
will produce. Unless other business
| concerns and domestic consumers
| speedily and largely increase their
purchases the country will have seri-
Gus coal trouble this Winter.
With the prospect of a serious coal
shortage looming up, and with no ap-
parent prospect of reductions In
prices, it Is plain that in their owr
self-interest business concerns and
domestic consumers should begir
buying at once the supplies that they
will need later. If they do not do so
and later find that they cannot gel
the coal they need, they will have no.
body to blame but themselves.
All past warnings regarding the
increasing danger of coal troubles
next Fall and Winter have been dis
regarded by the public. 1t is to be
hoped that the warnings now being
given will receive more attention.

Northcliffe says Americans will be
surprised to know that England has
agreed to let ireland tax England,
through the customs that will en-
able Ireland to put a heavy tar on all
goods from England. Northcliffe will
admit that 1t was about time for Ire
land to do some of the taxing. Son
Of a very superior Irish mother,
Northcliffe is acquainted with the
taxing methods of England in Ire
land, that have caused the present
explosion after 700 years of rebellion.
Chicago's city council will spend
three and a half millions making of
Lake Calumet a new and great in

That is the way to spend money.

BRITISH NOT TO BAR
AID HERE TO IRISH
Necessary Only Because Sim
Fein Spurns Help From
United Kingdom.
By ne Associated Press.

WASHINGTON, March so.-Charita bic
organizations constituted on "a strictly
non-political basis" in this country
which desire to deal in an impartial
spirit with any case OF Irish distress
will find no unnecessary difficulties IN
their way, the British Embassy said in
q communication on the subject made
public tonight.
The communication IN full follows
Widespread apprehension appears
10 exist in regard TO the necessity OF
raising funds from American sources for
relief work in ireland, and it may con-
sequently be helpful to persons genuinely
anxious to engage in philanthropic work
il they are made acquainted with the
following facts:
Banking and trade statistics and tax
returns show that Ireland as whole has
ssyer been more prosperous than at the
present time. Cases of unemployment
exist rs a result Of the worldwide depres-
sion in trade, but this depression has
been less scveDly felt in Ireland than
in England, owing TO the fact that Ire
land is largely an agricultural country.
Apart from these cases OF genuine
unemploy common to all countries
at the present moment, anu apart lloAi
the unhappy but normal poverty Of the
slums of towns, every case Of distress
and destitution is directly due to the
effects Of the Sim Fein rebellion steps
have been taken TO meet even these
cases. Millions Of pounds have been
made available from money raised BY
taxation in the United Kingdom to
build houses, to encourage land settle
ments and to promote employment
schemes and the general work Of recon
struction, but the counties and cities Of
Ireland which are Sim Fein in SYM
pathy refuse to accept this money and
prefer to appeal to America for charity.
Were it not for this attitude, there
is no case Of distress affecting any in
dividual or his property which could not
be adequately met from British sources.
Particularly it should be emphasized
that there is no shortage of food in Ire
land
"As regards the schemes on foot in
this country to raise money for the relief
OF distress in Ireland, the British Gov
ernment. while not agreeing that there
Is any need for American charity in Ire
land, will place no unnecessary diff
culties in the way Of any charitable or
ganization which is constituted on a
strictly non-political basis and deals in
an impartial spirit with any case Of Irish
distress brought before it,.
