II is learned that Hon. L. j. Bell,
bold-over State Senator from Nye
county, is a candidate for the Presi-
dent pro tenn of the Nevada Senate,
Senator Bell represented Nye county
in the Nevada Assembly for many
years and was the speaker OF the
House twice.
Rev. lrl r.. Hicks 1903 Almanac.
To say that this splendid work of
science and art is finer and better
than ever, is stating it mildly. The
demand for it is far beyond all pre-
vious years. To say that such re-
suits, reaching through Thirty years
are not based upon sound sense and
usefulness, is an insult to the intel
ligence of the millions. Prof Hicks,
through this great Almanac, and his
famous family and scientific journal,
WORD AND WoRKs, is dong a work
for the whole people not approached
by any other man or publication. A
fair test will prove this to any
reasonable person. Added to the
most luminous course in astronomy
for 1903 forecasts storms and
weather are given, as never before
for every day in the year, all charm
ingly illustrated with naarly two
hundred engravipgs. The price OF
single Almanac, including postage
and mailing, is Thirty cents. Wore

STATUS OF cLARK's ROAD.

The RECORD is indebted to the
Lincoln County Searchlight for tht
following information regarding the
present status of Senator Clarke {
proposed raiIroad to Los Angeles
through Nevada;
Indications are that the report,
which stated that Senator Clarke
had brought the right of way, road
bed and rolling stock of the Oregon
Short Line from Salt Lake south
will prove true.
To an outsider, affairs seems to be
rapidly shaping themselves and pros
poets seem bright for a railroa1
through Lincoln county within the
year.
The only possible reasons the
Short line could have for wishing to
build via Lincoln county. are to
obtain a short and direct road to the
coast and to circumvent Senator
Clarke's intention to build from Los
Angeles to Salt Lake, "if he lives.
The Short Line has it's own north
ern route via the Oregon Short Line
and Navigation Co.. with connec-
tons with San Francisco. 1t also
has southeren route via the South
ern Pacific.
A little over a year ago the Short
Line people secured an option on
Las Vegas ranch for which they
made small cash payment. This
option has been forfeited and SEN
ator Clark has bought the property
outright. This ranch is an all i'm
portant point. An artesian well
produces over 400 inches of water
daily and the neighboring noun
tains contain the only utilizable
timber between Salt Lake and Los
Angeles. 1t is a natural division
point and invaluable to railroad.
But probably the strongest reason
why Senator Clark and not the
Oregon Short Line will build the
road is because the Short Line has
no coast terminus. Clark already
has the Terminal railroad in Los
Angeles and San Pedro and Salt
Lake has promised to give him
Pioneer square in case he builds.
ChTk's road, as now surveyed,
starts at the Short Line terminus at
and runs south down the
Meadow Valley wash some so miles,
thence in southw9sterly direction,
across the Muddy range to Las
Vegas and within eight miles of
Good Springs. Crossing into Cali
fornia it maintains the same general
direction and hits the main line of
she Santa Fe near Dudlow, Cali
fornia.
