Mr.. Newman was elected sheriff OF
White Pine county and in that inn
portant position served with distinc-
ton rs an efficient and fearless of
ficer. 1t was during his incumbency
as chief peace officer of the county
that the memorable shooting ARRAY
occurred in Robinson canyon, in
which John E. Taylor was involved
and several miners were killed, As
sheriff Of the county George Newman
handled the difficult task which de-
VOWED upon his Office in connection
and by his energy and activity what
threatened.to develop into a riot and
in which many lives would have
doubtless been lost was averted and
the entire matter was handled in an
orderly manner attended by due
process of law.
George Newman will ever be re-
membered as one of the best citizens
of White Pine county and his name
Will always occupy a prominent posi-
ticn in the list of those men who
have done so much to bring the
~ to the foremost position which it
now occupies in the batleborn state.
His record as a peace officer will go
down as one of the brightest, clean
est and most efficient in all history.
He was fearless in the discharge of
his duties. efficient in the highest
degree and Conscientious almost to a
fault. He was possessed of a kindly
disposition and with those poor I'M
fortunates who erred simply through
the weakness OF nature he was al
sympathetic. while over those
hardened criminals whose crimes
from a malignant heart he
ruled with an iron hand.
He is survived by his grief-stricken !
widow and one daughter. Mrs. +. Z.
Huffer. as well as one brother, Van
Newman, formerly undersheriff of
White Pine county and now residing
in Sherman. Cal, and a half-sister,
Mrs. John II. Eager of Ely.
