SUIT
IS SUBMITTED
JUDGE. Walsh

Arguments on the demurrer and
motion to strike in the case Of l..
w. Horton against w. ]. Douglass,
commissioner of Nye county, were
concluded this afternoon at 2:3O
o'clock and Judge J. Emmett Walsh,
sitting for Judge Averill, took the
matter under advisement.
Attorney w. D. Hatton, represent
ing the plaintiff talked from 2:3O
yesterday afternoon until adjourn
ment at O'Clock, and concluded his
argument this morning. He cited
only a few authorities in substan-
tiation Of the complaint, while on
the other hand Attorney H, H. At
kinson, representing Mr.. Douglass,
cited authority after authority, tend
ing to show that the complaint as
drawn was so broad in its scope
that it would be impossible for the
defendant to make a defense, II it
VISA allowed to stand Mr.. Atkinson
made the closing argument, and
dwelt at length, citing numerous au-
thorities, why the charge of malfeas-
ance, nonfeasance and misfeasance
could not be charged against the de-
fendant, and that the only legal way
of prosecuting an action against his
client was by the filing of an in
formation or an indictment by the
grand jury charging misconduct in
office. This would permit, he con-
tended, OF the defendant being per
mitted to be tried by jury or sub
nit the case othe court, either Of
which methods would be in defend
ants own discretion.

COAL Miners
GIVE REASON
FOR WALKOUI
(By Associated Press)

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Mar 80
What are the coal miners asking for
In the new wage contracts with the
operators?
Briefly, the anthracite miners want
increased wages, the bituminOus
miners want to ertain present basic
scales, and the operators in both
fields want wage poposals. While
both sides include various other de-
mands in their wage proposals, the
main issue Is wages. In brief, the
miners demands are as follows:
Bituminous-Removal OF differen-
tials within and between districts so
as to result in increased wages for
some workers and reduction for
none; establishment of the 6-hour
day, 5-day week; pay and one-halt
for overtime work, and double pay
for Sunday and holiday work; week
ly paydays; a wage contract for two
years, ending March 81, 1924.
Anthraclte-2O per cent increase
OF wages for tonnage workers. and
81 a day advance for day laborers;
abolition OF sub contracting through
individual agreements; establishment
Of the "check-off' system OF collect
ing union dues by operators withhold
ing sums from miners wages; uni
formity of wages for similar occupa,
tions; extension of the S-hour day tc
include all workers; uniform "con
sideration" day wage for miners
whose wage is reduced by abnorma
working conditions; increased pay
for overtime work; contract for two
years, ending March 81, 1924.

.LUNING SCENE
OF IMPORTANT
MINERAL FIND

Reports received from Luning says
that a discovery Of high grade gold
selver ore has been made in the
tunnel workings Of the Luning Con
solidated Silver Mines company, To-
Gated five miles east of Luning in
the Santa Fe mining district. Sam
pies taken from the face gave the
following returns, according to our
informant: No. l, gold 1.60 ounces;
silver, 2O9O ounces, total value,
$3.50; No. 2, gold, 113 ounces, sill
yer, 1925 ounces total value $40 S..
The party giving us the report says
the gold is coarse and in some of
the specimens shown was visible to
the unaided eye. While the dis
covery has not been opened up SUI
ficiently to fully demonstrate its i'm
portance the management is report
ed as highly encouraged over the
present excellent showing.
A. E. Lowe, well-known Tonopah
mining engineer, is manager of the
property and has been steadily push
ing development on the holdings ever
since he took over the supervision,
The property has been a steady
shipper to the Desert mill of the
Tonopah mining company at Millers
for treatment. The other ore which
is iron, carrying values in gold, is
shipped to the company's plant at
Richmond, Calf, where the gold is
extracted from the iron, after which
the tailings are manufactured into a
fine quality of red mineral paint
So far as known this is the only
mine in the state shipping out paint
material.
The strike has greatly reiuvinated
mining in the Luning district and
has given the people of this section
more optimistic feeling.
