MORE RAILROAD Mt VS..

The developments in the railroad
situation in the vicinity of Ely dur
ing the past week has been OF
special interest to our people, III
that they are assured of direct rail
road communication with the out
side world. The railroad people
have at last awakened to realiza-
ton of the fact that the great bodies
of ore in this section of White Pine
county will pay handsome trans
portation charges to a railroad for
many years to come, and at the
same time dot the line of the rail
road with settlements, where now
only. barren spots greet the eye. 1t
means a general settling up of the
entire country between Ely and
Wells, and an increase in the popu-
lation of our little town that will
surprise the most sanguine.
Surveyors were at work along
the principal streets of Ely on Sat
urday and Sunday, and will pro
ceed with their work until the sur
vey is ended at Wells.
The desire of the Salt Lake
smelters to get the ores from this
section undoubtedly has much to
do with this move, but whether the
shipments go east or west, the new
road will bring lis All era prosperity
that has long been Our due.

Republican Rally.

The Republicans of Ely gave a
royal greeting to Hon. w. l. Plumb
Republican nominee for Presidential
Elector, and Paul McCulloch of
Humboldt county, OH Thursday
evening last. Old Glory was run
up on the flag pole, and a salute
was fired at short intervals after
sundown. Across the street near
the hall line of colored lanterns
had been stretched. The hall was
packed with an enthusiastic crowd
who listened attentively to the two
speakers. The two gentlemen did
themselves credit by the manner in
which they handled the main points
of the Issues of the present CAM
paign.

Imported Bucks.

\ recent stage brought in a pair
of Rams purchased by Adams &
McGil from Frank Harding, of
Wauksha, Wisconsin, a prominent
importer of sheep from France.
Germany and Canada into the
United States. One of these Rams
is large, fine wooded sheep, with a
long staple, dense fleece of Mcrino
wool of the finest quality. He is of
the German Rambouillet type, and
is a typical Won Homeyer Ram.
The other is strong type of the
coarse wool sheep of the Cotswold
strain, bred anb raised in Canada.
This sheep is very large and COW
cred with Q lie.see at the present
time nine inches i'll length. He is
one of the mutton type so popular
all over the West. Adams & Nc
Gill have imported fine sheep each
year since their advent into the
business, which departure from the
old way is being done to improve
their flocks in individual size, form,
slnoothness and increased produc
ton of wool. The improvement is
already very marked.

Railroad and Mineral Land.

In the event of a mineral vein ex-
tending into railroad land, if the
railroad has not received a patent
for the section in question, it is still
open to location as mineral land,
the SAME as the adjoining even
numbered sections. No mineral
is reserved to the railroad com
pany. 1t is only by taking out a
patent for the land before the min
eral is discovered and claimed that
the railroad companies can hold
mineral land.

CHERRY CREEK.
October 81, 1904.


Paul McCulloch, of Humboldt
county, was the first to give us
political speech during this election
campaign. He came at very short
notice, but had very cordial re-
ception from our people, with whom
he had made very favorable inn
preston during the few hours he
was with us. On Saturday night,
at the call of the Chairman, J. H.
Leishman, very respectable audi
ence welcomed the speaker, who for
over one hour discussed the issues
of this campaign from the Republi-
CAN standpoint in most creditable
manner. Mr.. McCulloch has a
clear enunciation, a forciful man
ner, clear brain on the politics of
the day, and is ready speaker. Of
course his reasoning was correct,
and everybody understands the Re
publican party, whose claims he ad-
vocated SO we'll, are the right men
at the helm, and will continue to
direct the AFFAIR." of this nation at
least for another term.
The contract for sinking the shaft
100 feet and drifting 500 feet from
the 500 foot station, at the Star
mine, has been let to Charley Malm,
formerly foreman at this mine.
Several men have arrived by stage
to work at the Star mine. =.
The dance given under the aus
pices of the Sweet Bye-and- Bye
Club on Thursday evening was
magnificent success. Jas. Pascoe
and w. d. Campbell furnished the
music, while Mrs. George Kelsey
presided at the organ. They will
give another dance in the near flu
ture.
A. Huyser, of Colorado Springs,
arrived on Tuesday, and went on to
examine some mines at Aurum, in
the interest of Eastern parties.
Our town has been visited by al
most all the county candidates, and
we note that they are a very credit
able lot of men. No county need
be ashamed of them They attended
strictly to business while here, not
one of them falling by the wayside.
Mr.. Huyser has returned from
visiting the mines at Aurum, bond
ed by w. II. Edwards, and was
very much pleased with what he
saw. Accompanied by Mr.. and
Mrs. Edwards he went on to Spruce
mont on Tuesdays stage.

IS IT RIGHT i?
Should Any Candidate Resort to
Such Dirty Work

Since completing my canvass of
the eastern part of the county,
and returning to Ely, without
sufficient time still remaining for
me to again cover this section in
defense of myself and my official
action, | have learned that one of
my political opponents has sent
man out to ostensibly canYass
the eastern part of the county i'll
his behalf, but for. the express
purpose of giving publicity to. q
certain letter from Attorney
General Sweeney, in which my
political opponent alleges the
former gave it as his opinion that
female could not legally fill
the position of Deputy County
Recorder
The following telegram from
Attorney General Sweeney prove
the incorrectness and malicious
ness of the allegation;
ELY, New, Oct. 81, 1904.
JAMES G. SWEENEY, ATTORNEY
CEREBRAL, CARSON CITY, Ne
VADA:-
Have you written an opinion for
Neil Munro, Or any one else in
this county, holding that county
officers cannot legally appoint
women as deputies =? Important
to me. Wire in full at my ex-
pense. ID. s. DICKERSoN.
CARSON, New, Oct. 81, 1904.
D. S. DICKEKsoN, Ely
Wrote opinion to County Clerk,
White Pine county, holding fe
males legally incompetent to act
as Deputy County Clerk.
JAMBs G. SWEENEY,
Is it right, or is it justice, that
any political opponent should
wilfully and maliciously put an
Interpretation on the Attorney
Generals opinion which would
best serve his individual require
ments, and seek to make political
capital of it. It will be seen that
the opinion relates solely to the
Office of County Clerk, which Of
flee is semi judicial one.
l, in conformity with the At
torney Generals opinion, have
always, and do still hold, that
a Y female competent to fill the
position of deputy in other re-
spects, is also legally competent
to perform the duties thereof.
In Lincoln county, a woman,
Miss Annie Carman, held the po-
sition of Deputy Recorder for
many years, and no corporation
or individual ever questioned the
legality of her acts. At this late
date will you allow my political
opponent to influence your vote
by such makeshift of an ex-
cuse of ''incompetency p
Very truly yours,
ID. S. DICKERSoN.

they used, say, ten years ago.
1t will not be out Of place for me to
say few words about the loss OF
fertilizing ingredients from over-irri-
cation or heavy rains. These red soils
have remarkable reten,ive power for
potashes, phosphates and nitrogen
when the latter is in the form OF sui

completed series of experiments on
these points and find that practically
the whole of these are fixed within six
inches of the surface. even where the
ingredients are soluble in water and
heavy irrigation follows the applica-
ton. Indeed SO rapidly are they fixed
and held by the soil that If they are
scattered over the surface for the water

may be fixed too near the surface. a
thorough working in of the fertilizers

CRAWlEY SPEAKS
On FERTILIZATION

In his paper on the fertilization OF
fruits and vegetables, read before the
Farmers Institute Saturday evening,
J. T. Crawley said in part:
There Is probably no place In any
other agricultural region where there
are greater varieties OF soil and diner
ences in rainfall than on the Hawaiian
Islands. In the high lands you get
large rainfall, heavy vegetation, often
sour soil, and usually soil filled with
, organic matter. This soil is usually
very retentive Of water, and the par
,icles are large and coarse, and much
of the soluble lime has been washed
out. The soil on the lower levels Is
not suhiect to the great rainfall, Is not
as retentive of water, Is usually very
fine grained and contains more OF the
easily soluble ingredients. We usually
look for four elements In soil in de-
termining its value for agricultural
purposes, namely, lime, phosphoric
acid, nitrogen and potash, and these
are the elements supplied In artificial
fertilizers. The soil of Wahiawa Is a
very good type Of the red soil so
abundant on the islands and which as
a rule, Is very productive. The ele-
nents above mentioned are found In
fairly liberal quantities.
with your experience ! think that
you will agree with me that the ele-
ments in the Wahiawa soil are not In
a very available form, and ! can ex-
tend this knowledge by saying that
this is true Of most Hawaiian soils
and especially of those soils subject 10
a heavy rainfall
Addressing myself to local condi-
tons, the Wahiawa soil, especially In
the upper portion of the lands, Is
somewhat acid. This has been cor
rected by clearing, destroying the
natural vegetation, and turning over
the soil and exposing II to the air
The acidity would be more rapidly and
effectively corrected by an application
of lime. The lime can be applied as
ground coral. which Is the cheapest
form, or caustic lime. Either will cor
rect the acidity and add store of lime
which will benefit the soil in many
ways, but caustic lime will also act
upon the organic matter, rendering
part of the nitrogen available. Be
, sides this plant food becomes more
readily available in soils literally sup
piled with lime, and II is one of The
elements that heavy irrigations OF
rains wash out of the soil.
While phosphoric acid is not in
readily available form in the soil
