STATE
ELECTION
SECRETARY OF STATE STILL
IN DOUBT
Howell and Douglass Both
Claim Election

AS the returns come in from the
outlying districts in the extreme
points of Nevada, the result of the
contest between Eugene Howell and
Glib Douglass for Secretary of State
is more confusing. From the latest
reports received, Howell has made
considerable gain, especially in Lin
coin and Lander counties. In Lin
coin county he now has over 200 ma
jority, which helps his fight material
ly. In Lander county he has made
gains as far as heard from. In Elko
county the small precincts that were
not visited by the candidates have
returned a majority for Mr.. Howell.
AS the fight now stands, it is so close
that al official count will be necess-
sary to determine who will hold down
the Office for the next four years.
Both men claim majority and both
headquarters are doing the closest
kind of figuring.
In the fight between Ring and Bray
| the case is almost similar, while it
looks like Ring has the advantage, as
he has received some great MAORI

pretty close. but Davis is still in the
lead with Lincoln and Lander coun.

from, Lander county has given Davis
a majority, while in Lincoln he has
made about standoff If this con

WHAT WATER STORAGE WILL
DO IN ONE SECTION
A Big Project Planned In the
Adjoining Valley

The Journal has obtained from L.
H. Taylor, resident photographer for
the United States government, an in
terview regarding the extensive work
that is being done here Il prepare
ton for the million dollar reservoirs
and canals that will probably be con-
structed in the Truckee river basin
next year. Mr.. Taylor said:
There is no absolute certainty that
the present work will be carried out.
1t all depends upon two things, 1st
whether the value of the land to be
brought under irrigation and cult
walton will justify the expenditure
necessary to put the water on it.
Second, whether the large owners OF
private lands will be willing to put
them on the market n small tracts
to actual settlers at figure that will
insure them ready sale.
We are now engaged in surveying
a canal line that will head in the True
kee river at Floriston above the pap
er mill which will have for the main
diversion canal a total length OF 81
miles, extending to point near the
old Emma mine north OF Reno, where
branches will take off to command
the lands in emmon, Prosser, Spanish
Springs and Warm Springs valley.
These valleys. together with a
small area between the Nevada-Cal
fornia line have an aggregate area OF
$4,000 acres of splendid agricultural
land, much better than which is at
present under cultivation in the Reno
valley of Truckee Meadows. This
land is capable Of supporting comfor
tably family on every eighty acres
