The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages,
and that is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh
Cure is the only positive cure now
known to the medical fraternity.
Ca.arrh being constitutional
disease, requires a constitutional
treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure is
taken internally, acting directly
upon the blood and mucous surfaces
of the system, thereby destroying
the foundation of the disease, and
giving the patient strength by build
ing up the constitution and assist
ing nature in doing its work. The

curative powers that they offer One
Hundred Dollars for any case that it
fails to cure. Send for list of testi-

The Nevada Chief.

There are fourteen men now en-
ployed at the mine and mill of the
Nevada Chief Co., at Rockland.
The mine is showing up well on the
lower level, and the mill is kept
busy every hour of the day that
water can be obtained for milling
purposes. The concentrating plant
as operated in connection with the
mill and is catching concentrates
that go from $500 to $500 per ton. A
small cyanide plant has also been
started up below the mill. The ore
being milled now averages about $i2
per ton and the bullion goes about
$40 or SHI an ounce.

Death N Satro.

Karl Adams, son of George and
Kmma Adams, OF Sutro, died Mon
day evening of pneumonia, superin-
duced by an attack of measles. He
was taken ill last week Friday, but
his case was not considered serious
until an hour or two before death.
Karl was fourteen years old, and
his sudden death is a sad blow to
his parents, who have the sympathy
of everybody. The funeral took
place in Sutro Thursday afternoon.

WILL GOVERNMENT LEND AID?
The People in Walker River Basin Will
Petition for Government Storage.

I6o-acre limit only applied to the new
land not already under irrigation.
But in this connection it was also
explained that if man had water
right with which he was trying to
irrigate 1000 acres, when it was
only sufficient for the proper irriga-
ton of 500, he could not expect the
government to insure him full
supply for 1000 acres, because that
would be giving him twice as much
as he was entitled to.
Mr.. Taylor spoke guardedly as to
what the government would do, dis
claiming any authority to bind the
United States to enter upon the
work of controlling the water sup
ply of the Walker Rivers, but he
made 1t clear what the farmers
themselves would have to do as a
prerequisite, and also that if the
government did take up the work it
would have to be upon basis of
impartial justice to all.
The Lyon county people urged
that in order to secure united
action by the water users it would
be necessary to have the matter ex-
planned to them by some represen-
tative of the government, who had
no personal interest in the matter,
and who could give them satisfacto-
ry assurance that the project would
not be in the interest of certain large
land owners and water users.
Senator Newlands suggested that
Mr.. Chandler, the State Engineer,
would be suitable person to visit
Mason Valley and confer with the
people there. The gentleman cannot,
the matter, owing to the work under
way in the Carson Valley, nor can
Mr.. Taylor do so. 1t was finally ar
ranged that in the course of two or
three weeks Messrs. Chandler and
Taylor would both go to Yerington
and meet the people there for full
conference and explanation.
The significance of such step as
this must be apparent to all. If the
project can be carried out it will
make the valley of the Walker
River the finest farming section in
all the West, give high values to
thousands of acres of now worth
less land and convert large areas of
sagebrush land into splendid pro-
ductive farms. The people of the
section which would be benefited by
such a move appreciate the almost
boundless possibilities which the
plans present and have keen inter-
est in the matter.
The discussion took wide range,
and was participated in freely by
all present. The technical informa-
ton came from Messrs. Taylor and
Chandler, both of whom showed
that they possessed thorough
knowledge of the subject.
The conference left very pleas
ant impression upon all who took
part in it, and it adjourned in full
hope that the plans which promise
so much, not only for Lyon county,
but for all of Western Nevada, may
soon be carried to successful ter
mination

During the session of the Grand
Lodge of Odd Fellows in Reno re-
Gently couple of very interesting
conferences took place at the resi-
dence of Senator Newlands, says
the Reno Journal. The conferences
related particularly to irrigation
and the conservation of the waters
of the Walker Rivers, and the re-
suits may be in the highest degree
beneficial to the people living in
Mason Valley and Smith Valley.
There were present at these con-
ferences Senator Newlands, H. F.
Bartine, L. H. Taylor, photographer
in charge of the government irriga-
ton work in this State, Mr.. Chand-
Ter, the State Engineer, District At
torney Lothrop, of Lyon County,
G. G. Braun and s. w. Gregory, of
Dayton, and Messers Mcleod. Whit
acre, Collins, Waldo and Dyer, of
Yerington.
Senator Newlands invited the con-
ference for the purpose of discuss
ing the yexed question of the Walk
err River water supply, ascertain
ing the wishes of the water users
of the section and explaining the
provisions of the irrigation law, par
ticularly its bearing upon individual
rights already vested, and consider
ing to what extent the government
might lend its aid in solving the
problem. 1t was chiefly with refer
ence to the latter phase of the ques-
ton that engineer Taylor was in
vited to be present, and his state
ments threw considerable light on
the subject, which it is to be hoped
will in the near future be followed
by a flood of judiciously stored
water for the benefit of the vallies
served by the Walker Rivers.
The Lyon county people explained
that there was more or less gen.
eral desire among the smaller farm
ers that all existing water rights be
SURRENDERED to the United States
government to the end that the
water might be returned to them
through government work, each
person receiving what is justly due
him, and all disputes being thereby
finally settled. But among the
water users there was good deal
of Misrepresentation. Some thought
if they surrendered their rights to
the government they could only Sc
cure an equal amount of water by
pa wing for it the same as new loca-
tors with no right at all. Others
thought that if man had present
right to water for, say $40 acres of
land, and he surrendered it, he could
only procure water through the gov
eminent works tor 100 acres-that
being the limit under the irrigation
law. THE correct Interpretation of
the law in regard to these points has
been repeatedly given in the Times.l
1t was explained by Mr.. Newlands
and Mr.. Taylor that it was not the
purpose of the law to put any man
in a worse position than he was be-
fore, and to protect every valid ex-
listing right; that no one was sup
posed to pay for water that he was
already lawfully using, and that

was a manly little fellow and OF
great assistance to his mother, who

little fellow before his father OBJ
served him and could stop the team.
The sycle of the machine severed
one of the child's legs and nearly
cut off the other, besides cutting
and bruising him on other parts of
the body. A physician was imme-
diately summoned and rendered the
proper medical assistance, but it is
doubtful if the child can recover.

closer range than mile and one third.
They directed their fire against the

Private advices say that five Rus.

Japanese were afraid to risk exposing
their ships to the plunging fire of the
