Morning appeal. [volume] (Carson City, Nev.) 1877-1906, 1893-12-16

not So nominated III the bond " At
! Reno the papers were very cold, but
| one could 1t Dainie them as the
Committee there had Informed them
rhat they should not have any passes
to the show.
Mrs. Foote learning this called on
the newspapers and furnished them
with passes and apologies.
| The receipts seemed to me to jus
! ufy the guarantee | made to the
Committee that we you'd donate to
the State the full 5000,
/ found however afterwards that
this could net be done if the II. r.
fares of the Company were paid back
to San Francisco,
The SlU0 dollars advanced to Mr..
Foote for the fares from San Fran
cisco to Reno we also considered as
due the Nevada Fund
So altogether we turned over 5000
cash in the three towns and | gave
my note for 800 TO the State Board
| of Agriculture to enable the Company
to get home.
| The Gazette presented a bill of
| ST. 90 for advertising, and was the
only paper which did present bill.
As I left Carson | rec ived bill of
$50 from the V. L. r. r. Co, for
8 round trip fares of the Company
from Reno to Carson and return
| thought the State Board of Agri-
culture might be willing to pay this
so | left the bill with them. If they
do not feel like paying it l will do so.
The statement in the Gazette that
Mr.. Yerington had discussion with
Messes Foote and Davis in San
Francisco about the Nevada conces-
sion in which he brought them up
with a round turn, is probably mis-
statement of the Gazette, because
when Mr.. Yerington met the Board
on Monday he had not met Mr..
Foote in San Francisco.
He had never seen Mr.. Foote ~
til he was introduced to him - r..
Colcord at his residence GA oUAu.f.
Messrs. Love and Hahu deny
that they made any such statement
to Mr.. Yerlngton as asserted in the
Gazette.
Any such statement made by them
would have been qaite uncalled for
as the 40 Mining Camp Co., did not
IN reality own any portion of the
concession until last Tuesday when it
was decided them by myself the orig
inaI concessioner III consideration of
certain amount of the capital stock.
| understand that the State de
clines to make good the agreement
of Messrs. Williams and Foley, that
III consideration of reduction of
$500 quartz mill should be erected.
Well, in that event we will close
all discussion on that score by doing
as the freshman did when his credi-
tor threw off half debt by agreeing
to throw off the other half.
In contract, signed by me TO the
State Board of Agriculture, trans
ferred 1900 Cor 10000, l forget
which, square feet to the State.
Nothing was said about running
cafes, but as the Board thinks it a
good idea and a money making idea,
my associates in the 40 camp will
make no objection, although it will
rants run in the camp.
1t is claimed that the ground lease
carries everything with it. Believing
| this to be good law, we will not dis
pute the claim.
We all want harmony and good
Fair, and if given half chance, the
40 camp will do its share.
The State got, (for nothing, mind
you,) space worth over $1,000 at
the ruling rates, and Mr.. Foote, af
ter playing week in Nevada, to pay
for Nevada's space, (and not even
receiving vote of thanks for it, }
offers Commissioner Yerington $500
square feet of space, on the roof of
his theatre, free of charge. He has
also ordered private box built for
the Governor of Nevada, to be used
by him, free of charge, during the
six months. Does this look as if
Mr.. Foote was trying to make
trouble?
