Man of Public Affairs.

Las Vegas. though but five months
old. prides itself upon having citizens
lof the most progressive sort. and rep
resentatives who by virtue of their no.
table achievements In the science OF
politics and who for their country's g
glory gained distinction and fame on
battlefields. as patriotic servitors OF
the best interest of the great Ameri-
can republican. men who assisted in
making a nations history.
Distinctively amongst these is Col.
w. ]. Fife. He came into our midst
from Hollywood. California. His
charming wife was subject to the sore
afflictions of rheumatism and neural
gia. The doctors were baffled with
her case. Finally one suggested. Take
her to the desert that will be better
than all the medicine she can take. +"
Mr.. and Mrs. Fife came quietly into
our midst. The result is that Mrs. Fife
has never been in better health than
she has been since resident Of the
natural sanitarinm that the Vegas val
ley affords all such.
Their two sons. Norman and chai-
mers, sixteen and seventeen years OF
age. respectively, are serving an ap-
premiership in the Union Iron works
| of San Francisco. acquiring thorough
knowledge OF marine engineering.
AS indicated. Colonel Fife has been
an actor In those spheres that are
themes Of everlasting interest. The

The reports on the country read like
advertising literature. At present,
however. there is no occasion for In
fiation or exaggeration as the only peo-
pie interested are railway officials who
are trying to find out whether the land
is worth colonizing There is little
land to be sold in the valley. but 1t can
be taken up from the government at a
cost OF about $3.50 an acre.
Owing TO the lack of transportation
facilities until the Salt Lake road was
open the country remained practically
undiscovered as a field for agriculture.
The few ranchers who went in and
took up the most desirable claims have
made fortunes in spite of the fact that
they were miles from any railroad.
The building of the new line will still
further put this district in direct com
munication with the outside world
and double the profits of agriculture.
There will be no colonization
scheme said Mr.. Martin. The rail-
roads hope to get the country settled
up because they want the traffic. II
any want to settle there we shall aid
them in locating lands and taking

lies about the foot of Charleston

A MERlTED TESTIMONIAL
TO A VEGAS CITIZEN

Frank A. Buol left today with his
family for Las Vegas. Nevada. where
they will make their future home. Mr..
Buol has spent the last two months in

married one of Washburn's best

what he believed to be to

served on the county board was a.
prominent in It's affairs as Mr.. Buol
