The Hickey Water Suit.
stipation

The Bridgeport Characterization of
October 2oth publishes a summons
of some length in the case of The
Hickey Land and Cattle Company
vs.. all the users of water on the
East and West Walker Rivers in
the State of Nevada. The suit is
brought in the Superior Court of
California and is to quiet title of
plaintiff to the use of the water in
the Walker Rivers in California.
AS the Hickey Land and Cattle Com
pany claims all the waters in the
two rivers the issue cannot be mis-
understood. The defendants are
given thirty days to answer and the
summons is dated October Ie, 1904.

The Bartine Meetin0.

Thursday evening H. F. Bartine
made speech in the Owl Hall to an
audience of about so people, men,
women and children. The gentle
man came almost unheralded and
for a time it looked as though no one
could be found to act as chairman of
the meeting. Finally R. w Apsey
came to the rescue, and Mr.. Bartine
proceeded to discuss the dead silver
issue, after telling the audience that
he considered it out of place for
man seeking the position of Supreme
Judge to make political speech.
Under ordinary circumstances Mr..
Bartine is an interesting speaker,
but on this occasion the gentleman's
voice was poor, his attitude apologet-
ic and the audience listless and unap-
preciative. Mr.. Bartine seemed to
be talking against his own convic-
lions, and the fact was painfully
noticeable. After the speaking there
was social dance, which was the
most pleasant feature of the even

c. &C. Matters.

A couple of carloads of Japs and
Greeks arrived at the Mound House
from California last Saturday and
began the work of broad gauging
the road. The work is to be rushed
to completion, and several hundred
men will be at work as soon as there
is room for them. At the Mound
House the long curve will probably
be cut out and the road run through
the chalk hills. Considerable work
will have to be done in Strengthening
out curves and reducing grades be-
tween Mound House and Wabuska,
bat it is expected that broad gauge
cars will be running into Wabuska
by the first of the year. South of
this point there will not be so many
changes to make but it is under
stood that the line will be shortened
up several miles. The broad gauge
will only extend as far south as the
junction of the Tonopah road at
present, and that road will be broad
gagged az soon as rails and ties can
be delivered over the G. & G. There
is now a crew of surveyors at work
at Hazen running line from that
point to connect with the g. < G. at
a point a few miles west of Wabus-
ka.

Cost of a Cheese Factory.

The cost of establishing a cheese
factory on the Pacific Coast varies
some with the location, but the fol-
lowing may be accepted as an aver
age estimate: Building, about $500,
and the same amount for equipment.
Twenty-one hundred dollars will
build and equip a creamery capable
of handling the milk from between
900 and 400 cows. In some localities
owners estimate the income per cow
as averaging $50 per year. The
prices of land range from S25 to 500
per acre,according to the location
and condition. These figures are
given by Kmma Sickle Marshall, in
Sunset, and are produced to show
about what creamery would cost
in this valley, where one is bound to
be built in the near future.

Patent Huno Up.

Last week we stated that the ap-
plication for a patent on the Douglas
copper claims had been hung up in
the Land Department at Washing
ton, owing to plumbers made by the
attorney in the case, H. Pilkington.
We again so assert, notwithstand-
ing his denial in the Dayton Leech.
If the patent is not hung up and
there are no errors in it why does it
not issue? When P1lkington says
we presented him with bill for SI7o
for publishing the patent notice he
lies. We did offer to do the work
for Sd square at one time. That
was when another paper was being
published here. The patent did not
appear for publication for nearly a
year after the other paper suspend
ed publication and we learned that
Mr.. Pilkington would not have Civ
en- US the work at 81 per square had
the other paper continued in the
field. When we did the work we
presented bill tor as squares at IS
per square, just what the law says
shall be paid, and $40 for the num-
erous changes that we had to make
in the notice from week to week on
account of Pilkington's plumbers.
We did knock off the $40 charge for
extra work, and we did refuse to
give Mr.. Pifkington a proof of pub
location until our bill was paid, for
he already owed us enough, and we
did not feel like taking any chances
with him on this amount. What
has Mr.. Deal been employed for to
look after the case in Washington if
there are no plumbers to straighten
out? And do you think Mr.. Deal
works for nothingp Won't some
body be loser when his bill becomes
duep

if the offender is apprehended it
will go hard with him.
