The New Road.

The following taken from Boise
5tatenaa of the 9TH instant will be oil
interest to the people in this section o
the country. Taken in connection with
the building of the Short Line from
Los Angeles to Wadsworth or to the
Loyelock valley It would make a
through line from southern California
into Idaho. 1t has long been known
that a railroad from Winnemucca
north into Idaho had been contemplated.
In any event this north and south road
would. pass through the Lovelock val
ley. Both railways might use the
one road bed from Wadsworth to
Winnemucca, a distance of about l4O
miles, but it would certainly lead TO a
double track. A glance at the map
shows that this part of the road is not
far from a direct north and south line.
1t is also believed that the iron mines
will ~necessitate a double track from the
point below Says into San F%ranciaco.
II is most certain that the development
of this State which is bound TO come
will witness a new era in railroad
building. Lovelock will be near the
center Of this activity --Lovelock
Tribune.

THE LUMDERMENS MEETING.
Sixteen Dealers Have Good Time and
Pass Freight Rate Resolutions
Last Night.

Sixteen lumbermen of southeastern
Kansas met in lola Wednesday, asan-
nounced in the REGISTER, for the pur-
pose of passing resolutions favoring
some legal step by which the freight
rates from the south should no longer
be allowed to be made discriminating
in favor of the eastern dealers. The
meeting was held in the rooms of the
lola Business College and the gentle
men present lost no time in expressing
their sentiments on the subject.
The following resolution was drawn
up and passed, being addressed to At
torney General A. A. Goddard, of To-
peka, urging him to assist the commit
tee appointed last year in bringing
pressure on the railroads, and in urg-
ing legislative action in Kansas and
Missouri:
! We, the lumber dealers of lola and
vicinity, learning that you have had
| doubts as to the complaints as to yell
! low pine freight rates into Kansas be-
/ ing approved of or authorized 10y the
| lumber dealers generally. wish to state
that we know that the Missouri and
| Kansas Lumber Dealers Association
| i'm session at Kansas City i'm January
| last appointed II. G. Taylor, of Lyons
| Kas., +. r.. Burkholder, of IIillsboro
| Kas., and Mr.. Cunningham, of Nor
| burn, Mo-, as Il railroad committee
and urged their pushing the above
complaint: and, further, that we are
sincere and i'm earnest and hereby
assert that we believe that you. as at
torney general, should give the matter
attention.
After the meeting adjourned the lum-
bermen were taken to the "Our Way
restaurant, where sumptuous ban
quet had heen prepared for them and
was served at the expense of the lola
lumbermen. Next morning carriages
were hired and the visitors were driv.
en- to the factories and shown over
town. The opinion was universally
expressed that lola is one of the best
towns any of the visitors had seen.
The lumbermen in attendance were:

Our State Tax Reduced

This mornings Kansas City journal
contained a dispatch from Topeka
stating that the State board of equal
ization has completed its work of
equalizing the assessment of the var
ious counties of the state and will soon
make a report to the county clerks of
the amount of each county's assess
ment and the amount of state tax
which each one shall raise. A good
many counties were increased any
where from one hundred thousand to
seven hundred thousand dollars, but
many more were cut down. Allen
county's assessment is cut down
81, III, 053 the biggest reduction by
half a million of any county in the
state. This fixed Allen county's
assessment at $3,s65, 27O, and the
amount of state tax to be raised al
$2l ,25S. The total assessments of al
thelcounties in the state amounts to
1926, 1896, 054 and the total state tax to
be raised is 81 ,S07. 1893.

Perhaps Another DELAY.

The REGISTER has watched with
deep interest the present question now
being carefully discussed by the coun-
ell relative TO the water works bonds,
but has said nothing in the hope that
the fears wonld prove groundless.
But there is persistent whisper pass
ing around that "another election
will have to be called" and the facts
are probably less alarming than the
reports.
As stated before in the REGISTER,
Mr.. Atwood, the attorney appointed
by the Messrs. LanyOn who offered
TO buy the bonds, looked carefully
into the legality of the issue. Every
thing seems to have been done prop
erly and carefully, but a snag has
been struck in the matter of the petit
tion for the bonds. Two-ffths of the
property owners must sign such a
petition and the names of the neces-
sary two-iifths was supposed to have
been secured. This will soon be
cleared up and future action depends
on the decision reached.

Drill City Gas We'll.

The pumping plant of the city's
water works plant will be erected at
the Neosho river, over mile from the
city, and the question of fuel for the
engine has caused the idea of drilling
Il gas well near the river to be dis
cussed. 1t is not certain that gas
would be found, but if gas is piped
from town the expense will be consid-
cradle and the gas bill will be to pay.
1t is estimated that 81, 900 or less
would drill the well and if million, or
two million or more feet of gas was
found, it would be ample for the en-
CINE and soon save its cost to the city.
This is the reasoning being done by
the councilmen and an investigation
of the wells which have been drilled
west of town will be made with view
to ascertaaining the chances of q
find

Biggest Gas Well in Kansas

lola has added to her list another
large gas well which the drillers say
is the biggest one in the field, and the
largest in the state of Kansas. 1t was
opened up on the Ed. Long farm, a
mile and half southeast of the city,
about O'Clock Wednesday afternoon.
Operations were continued until about
6 O'Clock and the drillers, who have
had years of experience, estimate the
flow at not less than ten million cubic
feet per every twenty-four hours.
That sounds to lola people like the
same old story, bnt there are several
points about this well which distin.
guish il. In the first place the casing
is 81 inches, whereas the casing ordi-
narily used is At inches. The force
should, by rights, be smaller, if the
well is the same volume as the others.
On the contrary it is simply fierce,
threw the men about, twisted the rope,
and almost refused to be closed down.
More important yet, the well is
nearly a mile south Of what has al
ways been considered the south edge
of the belt. Mr.. Longs farm is
three-quarters of a mile south OF
Minors ford and is beyond the sup
posed gas limits, in doubtful terri.
tory, at least. If there is a mile more
of gas land along the south edge OF
the field, there may be gas still far
Their south of town, Indefinitely.

Some Santa Fe Promotions.

The departure of Mr.. Spencer, the
cashier at the Santa Fe depot, for his
home at Oak Valley recently, was the
signal for several changes at the de-
pot. Mr.. Spencer's baby was i'll and
he decided to remain at Oak Valley
where the road has made him agent.
Mrs. r. A. Edgar was promoted here
to fill the position thus vacated, Mr..
Edgar remaining agent. j. S. Turner
who has done night work at the depot
for years has been promoted to day
operator, in Mrs. Edgar's place, and
Mr.. Ashbrooke, for the time being, is
acting as night agent here The ar
rangement suits the lola people bet
ter, but there is no certainty that the
change will be permanent. Railroads
have a knack of getting faithful SER
vice from their employees and the
three above mentioned lola people
are certainly deserving the promotion
and favor shown.

Ed. Broderson, the manufacturer of
the Red Wing cigar which has proven
very popular in lola, has decided
upon holding voting contest to de-
termine the most popular young lady
of lola. A $40 diamond ring, on ex-
hibition at McNiel's store, will be the
prize given the successful young lady,
each purchaser of cigar being enti-
tied to vote. The contest will close
December ! and promises to excite
considerable interest.
A petition is being circulated and
generally signed, asking Governor
Stanley to Pardon Jacob Rogers, con-
victed in 1896 of the murder of Della
Hutchinson at Humboldt and sentenced
TO twenty-one years in the penitentary.
Many Humboldt people have always
maintained Rogers innocence and the
coroner said atthe time one man could
not have done the deed. twill be re-
membered that the girl was found
submerged in Coal Creek, with still
bornbabe tied to her.
The people of lola and the west gem
eral have yet to be educated in the
many ways in which Portland cement
can be used in making things 1t is
becoming more important andis used
more extensively throughout fine world
every day, going into walls and walks
and pavements. r. b. shannon, the
north side hardware man, is one Of
the first in lola 10 try the lola make.
He has just doubled the size of his
building and finished it outside and
inside handsomely and now he is
having a broad. smooth walk of lola
Portland cement laid in front. In
large, smooth blocks, like polished
stone the walk is certainly handsome,
and dries out to deep slate color.
The company has one of its experts
laying the walk and will put its inn
print in colored cement in the corner.
1t is very probable that lola will use
a considerable amount of the cement

LanyonyiIIe Works Running.

Mr.. j. S. Rogers, president of the
Lanyon Zinc Company, said this
morning that the smelter at Lanyon-
vile is running again on full time.
Most of the former employees are
back at their regular posts, only a
few of the leaders of the walk-out OF
last week have been discharged. 1t
is to be hoped that no further cause
for a stopping of the works will be
found, either on the part of the men
or the company.

No GaImett Fair This Year.

c. H. Wheaton says the Kansas fair
circuit is having trouble in getting the
races filled, Some fifty horses have
been entered for the Allen county fair,
but there should be 100 or more. One
race has nineteen entries and others
are not filed at all. He hopes to get
to Garnett before the other
fellows do and try and get the horses
booked for the Anderson county fair,
Last fall the Garnett fair grounds
were sold and the association of that
place disbanded. 1t was hoped till
the last minute that a crowd of young
men were going to take hold and
maintain the fair, but word was sent
here to the meeting of the secretaries
Wednesday that Garnett would have
no fair. If we can get all the horses
that Garnett had booked we will be
fixed. Furthermore, as Garnett's fair
was billed for the same date as ours
the discontinuance of the Garnett fail
ought to have beneficial influence OF
our fair.

Petty Thieying Going on.

The officers think there is "a gang OF
fellows around town who are making
their living by petty thieving. Last
Saturday night some one removed the
screen from one of the windows al
Mr.. Schell's home on east Jackson
avenue. Mr.. Schell keeps pug dog
which was awakened and which made
so much racket that the buglars were
scaredIaway before they got anything.
Neither Mr.. Schell nor Mrs. Schell
were awakened and for once pug dog
has proven himself some good. The
same might the screen was removed
from one of the windows at the Fesler
home on North Sycamore. and Mr.,
Fesler's pants iished from the room
They contained only a small amount
of money, however, so Mr.. Fesler i.
not doing much kicking. He is thank
full that they left his pants. That
night Mrs. j. H. Nave who lives on
West Street was awakened by some
one in her room. Mr.. Nave was GU
of town so she grabbed "a gun and
commenced shooting. Five shots
were fired but none of themtook effect
The robber got out of the house anC
away before any of the officers reach
ed the house. 1t is to be hoped tina
someone will accidently hit one o
these fellows some time and put al
end to this petty thieving.

The One Hindrance TO Greater Nor.
gantOwn

The anomalous condition of pop
ulation fully in accord as To what it
wants, and nobody feeling any re
sponsibility for carrying it ont, is
the condition which conlronts Nor
gantown today.
We want to be a united people I'M.
der one municipal government, bear
ing the same name, following the
same ends. and harmoniously work
ing together to promote the same
interests, as one town And every
body is agreed that this is the hest
thing to do. Nobody seriously op
poses But, mt the same time no
body takes the initiative, and we
are as far from the desired object as
fit had never been proposed.
We want q public park before the
suburban territory is covered with
buildings and becomes too expen-
siye and incapable of requirement.
As soon as the Spring opens this
ought to be put under way and con
summated. If delayed another year
it may be fatal 60 the movement.
Everybody is in favor of this. No
body opposes, hut, as III all our 9th
CT public ambitions as a town, there
is nobody to take the initiative, and
all our fine laid plans die eabornn =
We have heretofore suggested the
only practicable and promising plan
that offers a solution. We should
have Village Improvement Soeie

be worth more to this town in the
next few years than, perhaps, the

Of considering, discussing, promot

What You
Are Getting.

Sometimes jewelers. are
mistaken on the grade of
watch movements.
They are not sufficiently
posted on movements to
tell the grade, and fire.
quently sell a cheap-g grade
movement at the price of
a high grade one.
1t can be seen that the
average customer IS an
easy mark for the unscru-
pulous dealer.
To be absolutely sure
you are getting the worth
of your money, you must
be absolutely sure of the
reliability of the jeweler.
