Answer to
Statement

We have no hesitancy in publishing
the article signed by the residents of
Sheridan denouncing our account Eof
the shooting of Otis Voor. In doing
so, at their request, we publicly con-
tridict the statements of several men
whose names are signed to the docu-
ment. If, at the time of the shooting,
they wilfully lied TO us in giving us
information, it is they who should be
reprimanded, not us. Despite the
eulogistic protest we firmly believe
our informants gave us a true version
of the unfortunate affair, aand that
this manifestation of revnlsion of
sentiment has something behind it be-
sides admiration for the alleged vir-
tues of the late Mr. Noor. In justifi-
cation of our report we regret the ne
cessity of violation of the admonit-
ion: ''Of the dead say nothing but
good,p and briefly recount few of
the laudable idiosyncracies of this
"well thought of and respected citi-
zen''. Last summer, without provica-
ton, he followed the Gardnerville
band boys from Sheridan to Valley
Springs and with six-shooter which
he bought that day for the avowed
purpose, threatened to kill Fritz Luhrs
as well as the writer and had it not
been for the alertness of J. l.. Camp
bell who took the weapon away from
him and prevented him from so do
/ ing. On the occasion of visit to
this place last winter, the late Mr..
Voor threatened to kill Will Watson
of Placerville at the East Fork hotel
and was taken to the lookup by Con-
stable Carr. As further evidence OF
his peaceful disposition on numerous
occasions the blood bespattered floor
of Sheridan saloon could attest. The
4 only excuse that has ever been offered
| to palliate his offenses, has been in
| toxication, to which we apply the
proverb ''in vino veritas,o which
translated into plain English means
while the wine is in, natural instincts
will come out.
As to the sanity of Ben Barber, who
did the shooting, we merely voiced th'
expressions of his neighbors.
In conclusion, our report of tn
shooting as well as the motive lead
ing TO it was given to us by Ben Par
mer and others and we riterate was
an absolutely true and faithful ac
count, even though their names are
appended to the post mortun
eulogium.

Otis VOOr Laid to Rest.

The funeral of Otis Voor, the un-
fortunate young man whose life came
to such sudden end last week, was
held at the Mottsville school house
last Friday afternoon, Rev. Pardee,
officiating.
After very impressive sermon the
friends of the dead man proceeded
with the remains to the Mottsyille
cemetery where the interment took
place.
From letters found upon the dead
man it is learned that in Eastern town
an old gray haired mother anxiously
awaits the return of her wandering
boy. A loving sister, in a pleading
letter, begs her brother to come home
and once more comfort the aged and
feebled mother. One day he is in
the prime and vigor of manhood, and
in the next he is peacefully sleeping
in little graveyard in this Valley
with but a new mound of fresh earth
to mark his last resting place. And
now each night as the old mother
offers up her evening prayer she
knows beyond a doubt that her
wandering boy is beyond all harm.
May his soul rest in peace.

a great height thereby showing that
the land is exceedingly fertile, and
requires but the touch of water to be-
come green fields and shady groves.
This result can come from but one
other source-the governmen t.
Through this agency it will be mat
ter of many years before we can ex-
pect aid from this source and when il
does come the water supply will not
be as reiiable as when it is pumped
from the ground. The argument Of
expense might be put forth, but can
be easily answered when we remember
that the water is secured through gov
ernment aid must be paid for and the
price is no meager item.
Just at present it would seem that
THE most feasible plan for securing
water for this arid land is that of
pumping by electric power. This
alone should impress upon the people
of this valley the necessity of encour-
aging the plans of the Nevada Power,
Light & Water Co., but when it is re-
membered that it will also solve the
problem of illumination, they should
not only be encouraged, but give
material assistance.

A Signed
Statement

Through justice to the dead and to
right mistaken ideas with the general
public, conveyed by the article in the
Record-Courier of May 5th, the follow
ing facts regarding the murder of Mr..
Voor by Benjamin Barber are given
for publication this week.
"Mr. Voor came to the valley the
first time about six years ago, not re-
naming here always, but spending
the greater part of that time in the
valley, principally upon the west side
where he was well known and respect
ed, and had many friends, who liked
him the better as their acquaintance
grew.
GAS to Mr.. Voor being of tantaliz-
ing or quarrelsome nature or showing
Mr.. Barber the least abuse, such is not
the case, as these men appeared to be
good friends, even to the night before
the murder. The death of Mr.. Voor
is in general regretted, and certainly
not considered victim of his own
foolhardiness, but an innocent victim
cut off from life as a well thought OF
and respected citizen"

Electric POWER
MEANS MUCH

Last week, Il number Of gentlemen
representing the Nevada Power Light
and Water Co. were Gardnerville visit
ors and while here gave out that they
were seriously thinking of installing
electric power in this valley. This is
a very significant tact and one that is
worthy of deep consideration. 1t is in
this. that the solution of the light
nroblem lies. The people of this com
munity have long been obliged to use
the ld-fashioned oil lamps, and have
ever been in constant fear of fire as a
result of their use. Substitutes in the
way of gasoline lamps have been tried,
and while reducing the danger of fire,
have proven a great deal of trouble in
lighting and being kept in order.
The first electric light has yet to dis
play its CLEAN through a window in
this valley. We have yet to realize
the great benefits and security to be
fderived from electric illumination.
How pleasant it will be to merely turn
button and have your residence or
place of business thoroughly lighted
from top to bottom, to know that you
can move a light about and light up
the darkest corner without the aid of
young hopeful or an obliging hus-
band. How convenient to hang in
ront of your glass when shaving, or
to throw ray under your dresser
when in question of truant collar
button. To thoroughly appreciate all
this it must first be experienced. Once
tried you will have no other.
But, besides the many benefits to be
derived in the matter of illumination,
there is another phaze of the question,
that should not be overlooked 1t has
been thoroughly demonstrated by ex-
periments that in almost every part of
the valley, water is to be found but a
short distance beneath the surface of
the ground and in sufficient quantity
TO warrant the proposition of irriga-
tion from that source extremely feas-
ible. The only drawback to the
scheme lies in the expense of pumping
the water. This difficulty can be east
ly overcome with the advent of cleo
trio power.
There are large tracts of land in
this valley which are at present bar
rem wastes because of the scarcity of
water. Not barren in the sense of be-
ing devoid of vegetation, because all
this land is covered with a rank
growth Of sage-boush, which grows to

Under False COlOrS

Two young men, representing
retail grocery firm of San Francisco,
were doing this side of the Valley
this week. At several of the farm
houses they claimed to be the parties
who were about to open the Jensen
store and were taking orders to fill in
time until their stock ofgoods arrived.
They also used other false methods of
securing orders.
Mr.. Jensen informs us that the two
men are in no way connected with the
store about to be opened and are un-
known to him.
Agents who use such methods to
secure few measly orders will stand
watching. A word to the wise is
sufficient

LAKE TO BE
UTILIZED

The construction of large control
ling dam, outlet and bridge at the
headwaters of the Truckee river at
Lake Tahoe is to be begun this year
by 1.-THE interior department in con-
nection with the prosecution Of the
irrigation project.
Already notice to contractors has been
sent out by the government and bids
will be received up until the afternoon
of June 15 next. The notices inform
the contractors that there will be a
least 10000 yards of earthwork and
500 cubic yards of cement to be con-
structed in addition to other work re-
quired by the specifications.
The success of the great Truckee-
Carson irrigation scheme depends up
on the conservation of the waters on
Lake Tahoe from which the Truckee
river receives its supply. At the
fountain head of the river are to be
constructed immense flood gates
which will prevent the waste of water
dcring the flood seasons and when
water 10 needed for the irrigation of
lands, by their operation, it will be re-
leased from the lake. In this manner
steady flow of water the year round
will be maintained in the river and
the danger of water famin during
the dry months of the year prevented.
If the government build dam at
the head of the Truckee river as now
contemplated it will work a hardship
on some of the small towns bordering
on the lake. 1t is reported that the
government will build dam at suffici-
ent heighth to reserve at least sixteen
feet more water in Lake Tahoe, if this
is accomplished it will flood all the
towns and the many large hotels.
To this date it is rather difficult to
learn what the government intends to
do at the head of the Truckee river
Republican.

VALLEY SPRINGS PUR.
CHASED BY A
SYNDICATE

One of the most important trans
actions that has occurred for some
time is the purchase of the Valley
Hot Spring, near Genoa, by syndi-
cate. Although the place has been
in excellent condition for the past few
years and under the able management
of Mr. and Mrs. j. l.. Campbell the
application of more funds will enable
the holders to enlarge and improve
the property to such an extent that it
will become known throughout the
west.
No small amount will be spent to
advertise the place properly and the
new owners propose to let the outside
world know that there is place in
Nevada that is the equal of any spring
in the world, and is superior to any
of the so-called health resorts. The
Nevada climate is the best in the
world, taking it the year around, as
every visitor will testify, and this,
combined with the medicinal proper
ties of these springs, will do more
toward restoring people to health and
strength than quarts of medicine.
1t is understood that the syndicate
has also purchased the Shaw Springs
near Carson and also hold an option
on the springs at Steamboat. We are
informed that the VALLEY Springs will
receive the immediate attention of the
new owners, and will undergo many
changes. 1t is proposed to enlarge it
to twice its present capacity and when
improvements are finished it will rank
with the best resorts on the Coast.
The surrounding grounds will be con-
verted into a beautiful park, with
lawns and shade trees and as the
ground is always warm the grass and
shrubage can be kept green nearly the
year around.
The enterprising men at the head OF
this enterprise are George Wingfield,
the well-known capitalift of Goldfield,
and Hon. II. +. Dangberg of thi'
county.
