CHURCHILL
NOTES.
Items About Irrigation, Wealth

REMOVAL OF THE COUNTY
SEAT.
EDITOR DISPATCH:

by the Committee on Agriculture pro-
vides for the cooperation Of the State
of Nevada with the Secretary of the
Interior in the construction and adj
ministration Of irrigation works. The
bill has passed both houses Of the
Legislature. 1t is drawn along the
lines of the irrigation law passed by
Congress AMI seems to give effective
State aid TO that measure.
1t is safe to say that this bill means
much to Churchill county in the gen.
eral working out Of the irrigation prob
lem.
1t is particularly fortunate that so
much Of the preliminary irrigation
work has been done here. 1t Is bring
ing the vast agricultural u Of
the country we'll into prominence.
Every day the wisdom Of the nation
al irrigation bill becomes more and
more apparent. President Roosevelt
set that iron Jaw and insisted that the
prime end and aim OF the whole mat
ter should be for the building OF homes
for the people and not for the benefit
of spectators. And the bill is care
fully safeguardei and the mar who,
by the laLor of his W hands, wants
honestly and fairly to make a home,
will have the first chance.
Behind him and to uphold him in
his rights is the power Of the govern
ment Of the United States and the pro-
lection and good faith Of the State Of
Nevada.
A heavy snowfall is reported at the
headwaters Of the Carson river and it
looks now as if We would have a fair
water supply for the coming summer.
In anticipation of plenty OF water
and good and ready markets a largely
increased acreage will 60 into grain
and alfalfa the coming spring.
New land is being fitted all over the
valley.
Plenty Of choice beef in the county
as usual at this time OIL year.
Hay is all cleaned up except a little
here and there and sells readily at $6
per ton.
Everybody could get ice this winter
that wanted it. All all the ice houses
are full.
1t looks as though we are to have
the station on the new railroad where
we asked for it after all. This will be
good news for everybody as the point
just north Of the old Well Station is the
point most accessible to the Churchill
people.
Geo. Cirac has sold his interest in
the new store to w. w. and G. B.
Williams. He has bought a lot Of
Will Sanford and has begun the erec-
ton Of a new building to be used as q
general variety and notion store.
Another one Of Miss Theelen's de-
lightful entertainments is TO be given
by the Fallon school. and is announced
for sometime near the middle Of
March.

The
new YORK WORLD
THRICE-A-WEEK EDITION.
Read Wherever the English Language
il spoken.

The Thrice-a-Week World was brilliant
success in the beginning and has been
steadily growing ever since. Time Is the
test of all things, and has set its seal of ap-
prOval on the Thrice-a-Week World, which
is widely circulated in every State and Ter
ritOry of the Union, and wherever there are
people who can read our mother tongue.
This paper for the year 1903, will make
its news service, if possible, more exten-
sive than ever. All events of Importance,
no matter where they happen, are reported
accurately and promptly.
The subscriber, for only one dollar year
gets three papers every week and more
news and general reading than most great
dailies can furnish at five or six times the
price.
The Thrice-a-Week World is absolutely
fair in its political news. Partisan bias is
never allowed to affect its news columns,
and Democrat and Republican alike can
obtain in its pages truthful accounts of all
the great political campaigns.
In addition to all the news, the Thrlce-a-
Week World furnishes the best serial fiction,
elaborate market reports and other features
of interest
The Thrice-a-Week Worlds regular sub
scription price is only $1.00 per year and
this pays for 1856 papers. We offer this un
equaled newspaper and THE SMYRNA TIMES
together one year for $1.75. The regular
subscription price of the two papers is $500

Test of sObriety.

An English carman who was DrouShl
before a magistrate for being drunk
while in charge of a horse and cart
complained of the indignities to which
he had been subjected by the police.
He had walked a chalk line marked
down the middle of a long passage;

surgeon said he was intoxicated. The
police explained that the accused hao
NOT walked the chalk line properly
that his enunciation of truly rural
and "chrysanthemums' was very
