Tramp Killed
At Perrin.

The water question, which has
been vital one With the old
settler, dependant upon an early
delivery for his gro wing crops,
has been settled to the satisfac-
ton of all concerned. AS stated
in last weeks STANDARD, the
government authorities rescind-
ed the contracts for concrete
work between this city and
South Fork crossing, and this
action has expedited matters
greatly. The government con-
crete gang is rushing their work
and water will be delivered to
every old ranch sometime during
the coming week, while the iarm-
ers III the vicinity of Leetville
are now enjoying the use of a
good supply of water.
Over. 100 horses have been
employed during the past week
on a ditch that will supply Still
water and vicinity, and the
work was completed yesterday.
The government authorities are
moving the work along in their
various departments as rapidly
as possible, and while there has
been some delay, in every case it
was the fault of the contractor
who failed to comply with the
provisions of his contract.

Olinghouse Mines On S. P. Ground.

The Olinghouse mining district
which has been attracting a
great deal of outside attention,
on account Of the stories of rich
es emanating from there, is tied
up and indica tions are that a
long series oflegal battles will be
necessary to clear the titles to
the mining lands.
The Southern Pacific railroad
company claims that the proprie-
tory right to the lands is vested
in them, as number of years
ago they secured most of the
lands comprisingth the Olinghouse
mining district through lieu Sc
lections and have had paten is
issued them under the law gov
erning such selections.
1t is reported that the mining
promoters have been forced to
suspend all development work
pending litigation, and the rail
road company has served notice
that no more ore shall be ship
ped until the ownership of the
land is determined.

Hazen Will
Grow.

At the present time our neigh
boring town of Hazen is receiv-
ing a great deal of free advertis-
ing incident to its recognized
coming Importance as arallroad
town. Like many other youths
of rapid growth, it is bothered
with gro wing pains not the
least of which has been the
townsite difficulties.
The editor of this paper made
flying trip to Hazen Thursday
aud found a great many things
grossly exaggerated both by
common report and the Reno
papers. rne later see in the
coming railroad junction, a
rival that seriously threatens
business, heretofore enjoyed by
Reno. Ii we are to believe the
Reno dailies, ID. .. Mills has
dealt a knock out blow to the
ambition of the Hartman i'll
teres Is to save a haul of nearly
100 miles on traffic from the
Tonopah mining district and
Southern California, and they
have, to their own satisfaction,
killed the Hazen cutoff enter
prise and are now revelling in
their great accomplishment.
However, present develop
ments do not bear them out III
their statements. New employ
es and stock are being added
1aily to the forces engaged on
the grading operations and ev-
erything points to a speedy
completion of the new project.
The ). +. Company finished
Wednesday surveying a new
townsite directly opposite the
Hazrn depot, and which will ac-
cordlng to reports, be placed on
the market for sale in a few
days, wirh good title vested
in the purchaser.
In the meantime Hazen has a
pro gressiva set of business men
who can be depended upon to
make the most OF their oppor-
tunities, and whatever turn the
affairs of the town take, their
efforts will rightly be directed
toward building a town that
will be a credit to their enter
prise. Fallon has a personal in
terest in the cutoff and the new
town it will build, for they must
both contribute more or less to
the general prosperity OF the
whole Carson sink region.
