EIGHTEENTH
INFANTRY
Passed Through Winnemucca
This Morning En- Rout to
San Francis % -

At o'clock this morning Companies
Y and G, Eighteenth Infantry. pass
ed through Winnemucca en- route To
the Presidio, San Francisco. and at
$40 the second section of this regi-
ment pulled into Winnemucca. con-
sisting of Companies H, E and F.
Colonel Sano informed a Silver
State man this morning that they
started from Cheyenne, Wyoming,
Saturday and are en- route to the
Presidio, San Francisco, after which
they will leave for the Philippine ISL
ands on the transport Sheridan.
In passing through Ogden there
was misunderstanding in regard to
the length of time the train was to
stop and in consequence two of the
musicians were left there but it is
expected they will meet the regiment
in San Francisco.
There is. connected with theis regi-
ment library which shows great in
terest is being manifested in the well
fare of the boys.
This is, taken as whole, one of the
best looking regiments the Silver
State reporter ever cast his eyes upon
and to say it is credit to Cheyenne
to send out this aggregation of sold
iers is putting the term in very mild
form They are healthy-looking and
well disciplined.
The regiment stopped here forty
minutes and in the meantime drilled
up and down our streets. The band
connected with these various COM
panies entertained the people of Win
nemucca by playing several national
airs. such as the "Star Spangled Ban
ner." "Stars and Stripes Forever" etc.
When their train pulled out everyone
was wishing it had stopped longer.
Undoubtedly this infantry will be
of great service to the government in
the Philippines.

Will Operate

A company has been organized at
Ely Nevada, to operate an automo-
bile line between that camp, Cherry
Creek and Wells. The distance is a
trifie over 140 miles and will be made
in less than one-third the time it
takes the stage to cover it. The new
company is capitalized for $4,000, and
will carry both express and passen-
gers. A company in Indiana, which
is building the automobiles, has shown
it's faith in the new enterprise and its
machines by taking stock in the new
company.

PERHAPS THEY
CAN EXPLAIN

Messrs. Gilbert and Wilson took
Tip to Golconda yesterday. These
two gentlemen informed Silver State
reporter that it took them six hours
to reach their destination and but
two in returning home, Now, gentle
men, it Is not our intention to "quiz"
you as to why it took so long to reach
Golconda, but we will wager that
there was something very attracting
along the road in going. Mr.. Wilson
saws not, but why should it take six
hours. Mr.. Wilson, to go distance
of Is miles. We will not criticize on
the time In returning to Winnemucca.

RECEIVING THE
PRESIDENT
How He Should Be Entertained
When He Comes To
Nevada

There is already considerable dis
cussion in regard to how the Presi-
dent should be received when he
comes to our State. The President is
everybody's President and surely ev-
erybody should join in and not re-
gret his visit
Mr.. Mills, chairman of the Repub-
lican Central Committee, naturally
thinks it his right to arrange for this
affair, but there is Governor Sparks
who also claims the same right, so
they most act Jointly in this matter
Governor Sparks has great faculties
for entertaining and could readily
please the President and party. He
is wealthy and has a home that no
man need feel ashamed of and would
not think anything of spending a
thousand or two in making the Presi-
dent and his Cabinet feel they were
being royalty entertained.
1t is thought the President will pass
through Winnemucca and go to Reno,
Carson, ETC. 1t might be arranged to
have the s. P. company stop over
a few minutes longer than usual when
he passes through here. There will
be a ten-minute stop and will, more
than likely, be arranged for twenty
minutes.
1t is thought he will visit the lake.
Well Tahoe is worth any mans
while to see. Suppose he should land
at Truckee in the morning, take the
railroad to Tahoe. run around the
lake in a fast steamer and go down
the grade to Carson early in the af-
ternoon and leave for the Governors
ranch for dinner. The Governor has
a giant tame elk which he would be
willing to sacrifice for the President
and give him a big game dinner, such
as he delights in. These, however,
are only suggestions and il is hoped
that there will be no effort on the
part of anyone to monopolize him.
There is plenty of time between
now and the date of his arrival to
arrange a suitable program, and one
which ought to be arranged with
view of giving the President, not so
much what the people want, but to
consult his wishes a little.

The New Cup Challenger

The English people are very per-
sistent in their efforts to recapture
the cup which Americans have held
for so many years. Another attempt
is to be made this summer, and to that
end a new challenger is being built,
which is claimed will have more speed
than those used in the past The re-
suit will be watched with great inter-
est by both sides There has also been
much interest manifested by the peo-
pie in the marvellous success of Hos
letters Stomach Bitters during the
past fifty years. 1t has established
record of cures unequalled by any
other remedy of such ailments as
heartburn, belching. indigestion, dys-
pepsia. constipation, insomnia, ner-
vousness or spring fever. If you are
a sufferer, we urge you to try bottle
at once.

J. B. II. HARRIS
CONVICTED
Found Guilty BY a Jury Satur-
day After a Short DELHI
Grafton

Saturday the case of the United
States against j. B. H. Harris of Sill
yer Peak came up for trial in Car
son; the jury having been chosen the
day before. This was a case of pee
uliar circumstances and probably the
first one of it's character in the State
Harris, who is an owner of consid-
erable mining land near Silver Peak
has from time to time had consider
able trouble with the Blair estate,
who are the principal mine-owners
of the State.
Harris had been odered away from
the grounds several times and finally
became desperate and wrote a letter
to John Shirley, which would hardly
bear publication, who had previously
elected him from the grounds. The
result was his arrest upon complaint
of the u S. Postal Inspector
The case went to the jury on Satur-
day and after a very short delibera-
ton a verdict of guilty was given to
the Judge.
That Harris has grievance there
is no doubt He states that the Blairs
brought him to this coast under a con-
Auact and failed to keep the contract.
1He has been thorne in their side
ever since, and every means has been
resorted to to get him out of the way.
y He has taken up claims that they
d claim and this has kept a score of
81 men busy. He is hermit, and pre-
81 fers living in one of his tunnels,
where he has bid defiance to men on
III a number of occasions. He always
seems to have the necessary money to
# defend himself with. and as he has
been in court a number of times, his
attorney fees would be equal to very
Il fair mine.
ii Just what the penalty will be is
hard to say, as this is the first of the
kind in the history of the State and
Judge Hawley will take it we'll under
Reconsideration before stating his SEN
Fence.

unusual demand at an advance of

continued ease in money has thrown the
question of further gold exports into
the shade.
Government bonds unchanged.

PERFECTING LEASES
FOR WHARF PROPERTY

Engineer Commissioner BiddIe. Au-
ditor Petty, and Daniel E. Garges,
of the Engineer Commissioner Office.
are busy making leases for wharf prop
erty along the Potomac River front be-
tween the Long Bridge and the Arsenal.
The property referred TO was awarded
to the Government in May, 1899, as a re-
suit of what. is known as the Potomac
Flats case. The case was Of long stand
ing and was instituted by the Govern
ment against Martin F. Morris, trus-
tee, and others for the purpose of estab-
fishing the title of the United States TO
the land along the river front south OF
Water Street
The decree of the Supreme Court Of
the United States, however, did not di
rect that the property should be taken
away from the persons claiming it and
who had made expensive improvements
upon II, without remunerating them for
the investment In keeping, therefore,
with the decision of the court. Congress
at its last session appropriated $780,
122.04 for the purpose of paying for the
improvements made upon the property.
A great deal of the appropriation has
already been distributed among those
who had made improvements of the
property occupied by them along the
river front.
1t is expected the District will receive
about s15. 600 annually in rents from the
property along the Potomac River front
which has been awarded to the Govern
ment
