BUCKMAN
INTERVIEWED.
Gives The Reno Journal
Some Facts.

A. E. Buchanan, the contract
or on the government reclama-
ton work, was in Reno yester-
day.
AS he took the train for the
coast last night, he stated i'll ref
erence to the big canal project
that the water which will be
turned through the gates about
Tune l 7th Will cover an area OF
fully 100000 acres.
The contract is a much larg-
er one than was at the outset
anticipated' he added. I'VE
have 1000 men and 900 horses
pushing the work as rapidly as
possible and are working, now
on the falls and laterals near
Failon. There will be II falls.
We shall build a big power
house at Leetville for the pur-
pose of pumping the water to a
higher plane or elevation and
expect to finish our contract
within 60 day. | consider that
this work will prove a great sue
cess, far in excess OF all antic-
ipations.
Tine last thing to be built on
the main canal will be Il spill
way near Derby for the purpose
OF protecting the ditch in case OF
anv possible break. As soon as
the water is turned loose you'll
see a big difference in this coun-
try. There are thousands of
people now waiting for the com
pletion of this enterprise. - Jour

Contractors Rebates.

Secretary of the Interior
Hitchcock has made the follow
ing statement relative TO the
granting of rebates by the rail
roads to contractors engaged
upon government work, which
issue was referred to in these
columns last week:
Recent articles have appear
ed in the public press with ret
erence to certain proposed CON
cessions and agreements on the
part of railroad companies to
transport ma terial for use in the
building of dams, reclamation
service, under the act of une II,
1902. The secretary, before
taking action, submitted the
matter to the Assistant Attorn-
ev General for that department,
whose duty it is, under the law,
to advise the secretary on legal
questions. The question involv-
ed a considerat ton of the inter
state commerce act. The sec
ond section of that act contains
certain inhibitions relative to
common carriers granting spec
ial rates. rebates, etc. Section
90 of the act provides thatnoth-
ing in this act shall apply to the
carriage, storage or handling of
property free or with reduced
rates for the United States D."
"The opinion was based on
the language quoted, and was
in effect that the secretary was
authorized to make an agree
meDt for the proposed conces-
sions in favor of the govern
ment. This opinion was APP
proved by the secretary, and he
says was more acceptable to
him because it would result in
the saving of hundreds of thous-
ands of dollars for the govern
ment. The correctness OF tins
view, however, has recently been
questioned BY a law officer OF
another department, although
such law officer was without
jurisdiction in the matter. The
secretary OF the interior, out OF
an abundance of caution, has re-
ferred the whole matter to the
attorney general. before whom
it is now pending for his opln-
ion.-Journal.

Reno High Life.

Reno has q munich pal cam
paign on hand that has waxed
so warm that two well known
officials of that city. attempted
the adoption of blood and thun-
der tactics, and were on the
verge of using the six shooter
method to settle their trouble.
The scene is well authenticated
and furnishes an object lesson
for hot headed officials, if any
more there be, in the state OF
Nevada. The following law
now in active force, has to do
with officials who would adopt
uuixotic methods in settling
grievances that arise from injur-
ed pride.

A BIG DAY
FOR US.
Everybody Should Cele-
brate on June II.

The Nevada State and Fed
eral irrigation authorities are
preparing formal program to
celebrate the opening of the
flood gate of the Truckee and
Carson irrigation canal on June
18th. The Congress sional com
mittee on irrigation will arrive
in Hazen on the day previous,
and leave on the day following
the ceremony.
The governors of 13 States
and three Territories are to be in
vited to participate in the cele-
bratlon. They are the States
where sale of public lands are be-
ing devoted to fund for the
building of canals within their
respective limits. This fund now
amounts to S 30 900 600, and
it is constantly growing. 1t is
estimated that S 80 600 600
will be available for projec is
soon to be laid out by the time
they are reached Proceeds
from the sales Of public lands
have been accumula ting for this
purpose very fast during the
past three years.
The celebration is to be at
tended by a large committee
from both houses of Congress.
lis members will probably come
in a special train and with their
families, will make up a large
party. Senator Warren of Wyom-
ing is to be the head of this del
egation of congressman.
The residents of the Carson
sink section should celebrate on
the date mentioned, as the pass
age of the reclamation act mark
ed new epoch in the affairs OF
every inhabitant. The date OF
its passage is destined to be
come a day of importance over
the entire west, as the fruits OF
the acts provisions are realized,
and when the desert eXpanses
are blossoming as the rose, the
date of awakening to the i'm.
portance of the arid west as a
section of homes, will be day
that will take its place in the
hearts of the people affected sec
ond only to the glorious Fourth
of July.

Cutoff ToBe Completed,

wv O@ - S~~~
The Chronicle is informed on
the highest authority that the
story OF ID. y. Mills having
threatened to extend the Virgin
la and rruckee railroad to Stock
ton, Cal, should the Southern
Pacific persist in the cons true
ton of the Hazen cutoff, is un-
founded.
When the Southern Pacific ac-
quired by purchase the Carson
and Colorado road it was dis
tinctly understood by the Vir-
ginia and Tru .kee offci that
it was for the purpose of con-
structing the contemplated Haz-
EN- cutoff to connect the South
ern Pacific system with the Car
son and Colorado to secure a
shorter route to Los Angeles to
enable it to compete with the
Salt Lake and San Pedro route D..
The Hazen cutoff will reduce
the distance from Ogden to Los
Angeles via the (. p. and c. &C.
600 miles and its construction
will be resumed and rushed to
completion as soon as the right
of way is obtained, which it is
expected will be secured by hav-
ing the land in Churchill county,
for which an exorbitant price is
demanded, appraised and con-
demned, and that is the only
cause Of the temporary suspen-
sion of the work at Hazen.
At the time when the Southern
Pacific Company purchased the
Carson and Colorado railroad
it was operated at a loss, as it
was before the discovery of the
mines in Tonapah and Southern
Nevada districts and the rush OF
tratfic that folio wed, making it
one of the best paving railway
properties, for it's length, on the
con .inent was of course untore-
seen.
The V. & 7. company realizes
that the construction OF the cut
off will seriously curtail the prof
its of its road through diverting
passenger and freight traffic
from eastern points to Southern
Nevada mining districts to the
shorter route via Hazen, but the
V. & T. will still control traffic
from the western route to Tona-
pah and other mining districts.
The only project at present
entertained by the Y. & 7. rail
road company is the extension
of its line through Carson val
lev to Gardnerville, the construc-
ton Of which may begin at an
early date, but the latter com
pany has no present intention
of extending its line beyond that
point.

Mate can be drunk hot or cold, II can
be taken with cream and sugar. like
ten or coffee, and it can be used
straight" which seems by far the
best way Of drinking ii. Plain mate is
quite bitter and. like beer. it Is an ac,
quired taste. The first sip gives dis.
tinctly bitter taste and the drinker
sets down his glass with Il wry face
Presently, as soon as the bitter effect
wears off. the imbiber has pleasant
recollection of the sensation. by this
time the powerful stimulating property
of the drink has begun TO work and the
drnker feels like taking another sip
Mate makes the user of it "fce! good
makes him look with u brighter eye on
the dark side of life, makes him forget
his troubles for the moment and. best
of ALL unlike beer. ii makes him feel
like working or doing something with
his brain or his hands instead of loafing
or gossiping.
Chemists who have carefully ana
lyZed mate say that ii is perfectly
harmless. 1t has only the smallest per.
centage of caffeine and volatile oils
and ii never leaves II bad after effect
Even when the drinker has disorder
ed stomach or bad nerves the cOnsump.
tiOn of mate is not followed by unpleas
ant feelings.

monplace occurrences. The postmaster
ot Brooklyn Informed him that one OF
his letters had been returned from tho
dead letter office. and this is the way
the affair struck Beccher:
