MASSEY, SUMMERFIELD ET AL
EACK AND FILL CN HAWLEY'S
EENCH TAKE CUE FROM
JUDGE MURPHY AND DISCLAIM
PERSONAL POLITICAL ACTIVITY
Since Judge Murphy's announce
ment in The Appeal in which he said
that he would not consent to enter
a campaign for the vacated bench of.
Judge Hawley, the candidates for the
'ifT.-e have adopted something of his
higu standing on the matter.
''''hen approached !n his office on
the subject all Judge Massey would LHr:'011 alld 1 ruckce rivers and water j
, , 1 I(,r any but small domestic uses must i
say was that he is a receptive can-!,
j iJe hauled, as none has been aevelop
riidate, subject to the decision of the , . r t-,
! ed by the locators yet. The town-
president and the good offices of his
Nevada friends who may have in
iiutnee with "the powers." Judge
Massey felt that it would not be in
the best' of taste, possibly, to consent
to an interview on the subject.
It is thought by Judge Massey's
friends, however, that the Hon. Sar
Jis Summerfield does not seek to
control the political patronage of the
great ' State of Nevada. Summerfield
and Judge Massey are said to be on
friendly terms, personally, but as be
tween Massey and E. S. Farrington
of Elko and Reno, if it came to a
question of choice between the men
tor the Feueral Bench. Judge Mas
sey's friends expect that Summer
field would feel more like favoring
Farrington on account of his politi
cal affiliations.
There is little doubt that Judge
JMasaey s friends look for support
from Senator Nixon It is said by
them he is closer to President Roose
velt than any other man in Nevada
They expect nothing from Senator
Newlands.
Farrington was not seen yester
day. He is at Eiko engaged in trying
a case in court out he is expected to
be in Reno today or by next
Monday. No statement consequent
ly has been secured by him as to the
report that he does not desire the
appointment to the Circuit Judgeship.
Farrington is said .o have a more
than ordinarily lucrative law practice.
The salary of a United States Cir
cuit Judge is ?.(KM) a year, and the
job lasts for life, or during good be
havior. """'siflSl

VIGILANCE COMMITTEE FOR
GARDNERVILLE

vigilance committee to rid the town
of the worthless characters that per-
sist in selling liquor to Indians, lt

unsafe on account of the drunken
ness of the noble red men of Doug
las county, and that despite the fact
that complaints have been made, no
official action that Iras diminished
the abuse has been taken.

situated a few miles from Welling -
ton, to the Golden Sceptre Mining
Ho., of Goldtield whose president is
J. C. McCormack is reported. The

tis Mack of Gardnerville and John

ABOUT RAMSEY
Weils Fargo agent Tiekner arriv
ed home from a trip to Ramsey Sat
urday. A big strike was made there last
week on the Woodchopper claim,
owned by Ramsey. "Clark, another
claim owner, struck a big tedge on
his claim chat is wide and deep, and
goes $01 to the ton.
Every man in the camp is busy.
No labor is to be had there now, and
the claim owners have entered into
an agreement as to the division of j
work that must be done immediately, i
each man confining his own to that
required by law. j
The district is located in the moun
tains west of Stockton Flat on the
Failon road beiow Dayton, and about
15 miles from tne old Huckland sta
tion. It Is act mldwav between the
site og Golden, it is saia. will have a
supply from the Truckee.
As soon as ..ie location work is
done, things will begin to hum at
Ramsey, tor there are great ledges
of ore in the camp that will pro
duce if properly opened up. Like
all camps, Ramsey is starting small
and many claims have been located
by each party in interest. As soon "3
prospecting can be done, many c
these will be realeased, or sold, and
then the prosperity of the camp will
begin.
Tickner says that he looks for' a
rush into the camp by n3xi fall.

ASYLUM BOARD BEGINS AN
INQUIRY INTO CHARGES
RENU), June 9. P. T. Ginnis and
the man Freeman who escaped from
the State Insane Asylum Thursday
night, are still at large.
Further investigation at the asylum
yesterday revealed the fact that Gin
nis made his escape in his night
shirt. Inmates of certain wards are
required to undress in the corridor
before turning into bed. Ginnis fol
lowed the rule as usual on the night
of his escape, his clothes being found
in the corridor showing that he had
disrobed as usual. Dr. Gibson infers
from this that Ginnis had assistance
after he got out of the asylum. The
superintendent thinks that Ginnis and
Freeman remained in hiumg all of
Friday night, and being fully equip
ped by friends with clothing fand
money, really began to put distance
between them and the asylum beg
inning with last night.
Dr. Gibson says there is no doubt
that Freeman was helped to escape
by cm of the employes, or some
other person inside the institution.
He was heard to go out through and
close one of the main doors which
must have been unlocked for him.
The board of directors for the state
institution for mental diseases has
commenced an investigation into the
causes that led to the escape of Gin
nis and Freeman.

THIO IS TOO TRUE
"The meanest corporation in the
world is the Pullman Palace Car
company. It charges excessive prices
for the accomodations it affords and
then makes the passengers pay in tips
for the slight service he receives. It
, hag made more money out of passen
gers over the transcontinental lines
than the railways operating between
here and the east, but it has not had
the grace to senu a sympathetic word
to San Francisco since the Are. In
stead oi sympathy it has steadily
charged al the traffic wiu bear, ana
its directors have oeen considering
j the possibility of increasing their
tariffs. They are a scaly lot." San
' Francisco Chronicle.
A divorce from John B. Meldrira
was granted Winifred Mary Meldrim
by Judge Murphy Saturday morning
in the district court. Petitioner was
Miss Sharkey an dg-ven the decree
'without alimony or prejudice.

of the delegates must pass through j

does not claim the convention this
year, it is up to Carson City to show
the Tonopah people the error of their
ways and bring two or three hun

a day of two, or three. It is money
in the pockets of Carson City to get
busy on this, no matter what politi

WINTERS' MINE IS TO BE OF
FERED TO C. M. SCHWAB
GARDNERVILLE, Jan. 9. A. Jen
sen, a . Gardnerville banker, has ob
tained an option on the Winters mine
and has gone to New York where he
will make an effort to dispose of the
property to Chas. M. Schwab.
The Winters mine is one of the
best known mining properties in the
Pinenut mining district and is owned
at present by a number of Carson
valley people. It was a good pro
ducer a score of years ago, but its
title having become involved in liti
gation no work was done on the
mine until about four years ago, when j
it was purchased by the .lessen Bros, j
Since then it has yielded a fair In- j
terest on the money invested. Should
Mr. Jensen be successful in selling
the mine to Schwab it will undoubt
edly be developed on a large scale,
and this country and the surrounding
country will profit, materially there-
