married In Reno

Jack Mccullough and Miss Gertrude
Sheehy were married last Tuesday
evening at 6 o'clock at the home of DR..
A. E. Herschiser on West First street,
says the Reno Journal. The wedding
was a quiet affair and was witnessed
by the Herschiser family and Misses
Elizabeth Mccormack and Mary Bacon.
The ceremony was performed by DIR.
A. C. Welsh, pastor of the Methodist
church.
The bride is a young woman quite
well known in that city and is a native
Of Virginia City. She is a graduate
of the university normal school, class
of 1904, and is a member of the Thets
Epsilon sorority of the university. Fol
some time past she has been a teacher
in the Fourth Ward school in Virgins
City.
The bridegroom is at the present
time engaged in mining at Tonopal
and is one of the successful men Of
this camp. He was at one time en-
gagged in mining on the Comstock.
The young couple left for Californis
on their honeymoon. They will latel
return to Tonopah and make this city
their future home.

able assistants for their very efficient
work, through which the celebration of
our natal day of 1906 raj made the
best ever seen here.
The local aerie Of Eagles are entitled
to the lasting gratitude of the people
of Tonopah, for it was the Eagles who
erected the pavilion at their w ex-
pense purposely for the use of our
~townspeople for this occasion.
In conclusion we will say further that
no feature of the celebration equaled
in loftiness and true patriotism that in
which the American flag for the first
time was raised on the summit of
Mount Oddie. 1t was a feature which
will stand as long as Tonopah exists,
and while appearing as a beacon to the
Coming Men of America" and all
other good citizens in their path Of
duty to the state and nation, it will
forever appear to the credit of our
brilliant young citizen. Fred L. Berry,
who conceived the project and enlisted
in its execution the other prtriotiC

"Old Glory" club of Tonopah, provided
among themselves the funds where

flag which they presented as :
gift to Tonopah.

sherir,s Quarterly Report

Sheriff Mcmahon presented his re-
port this week for the quarter ending
June 80, 1906. The report shows a net
total collection of SIS, 1884 81 since he
assumed Office on April Is. To this
amount must be added the sum of
81, 294.6 s., collected during the month
of April by his predecessor, making a
total net collection by the sheriff's Of
flee for the second quarter of $40, 129. AZ.
This is an increase of nearly 81, 900 over
the first quarter of 19O6-a very good
showing. This large increase in the
county revenue is due to his properly
classifying all business liable by law tC
the payment of a license tax and in
the careful checking upof such business,

NEvADA's

Nevada, that lay SO long in the
shadows, is having her inning now, and
of her Goodwin's Weekly very truth
fully says in part:
'In this metallic age she comes for
ward with her gold, silver, copper,
lead, iron, borax, nickel, salt, bitum-
nous shales and sulphur to claim full
recognition as one Of the chiefest con-
trolling forces of the age. And though
q desert state, she will have more land
under cultivation ten years hence than
some of the agricultural states of the
east. And because of her treasures
and the genius required to explore and
save them, because Of her amber skies
and pure air, she is a natural nursery,
TO bring out souls that are naturally
great.
"Her old race of giants has passed
away; those that had the energy t.
try, the tenacity to hold on, and the
genius to subdue and turn to theil
benefit the obstacles in their path
but like causes produce like effects
and another race will succeed them
1.-THE east raises food and textile1
that like the leaves appear and vanisl
yearly. She produces the roughe
minerals and metals, but the wealtl
that is not changed by the abrasions o
time and which is the vital fluid o
trade and commerce, comes from tn
west. In that production Nevada i
and is to be a great factor and is en-
titled to the hearty congratulations o
all her old friends and to the profoun
respect of the nation and the world.

of the stock and not the mine. From a
stock standpoint it would seem as if all
support had dropped out and the stock
left to find its level.
"At Goldfeld the Mohawk property

New Plant for the Nugget

Henry j. Bartlett, who with Jas. w.
Travers, publishes the Round Noun
tain Nugget, returned from a business
trip to San Francisco and other places
Wednesday evening. While away he
purchased a complete newspaper plant
which includes a big Cottrell cylinder
press, which is one of the best presses
in the State and which will print four
pages of a six column paper at once.
The plant has been shipped to Tonopah
and upon its arrival here will be taken
to Round Mountain by a 16-mule team
which has been engaged for that pur-
pose. The newspapers of Nevada are
a credit to the State and the Rounc
Mountain Nugget is no exception t.
the rule.

The republican state convention will
be held here in September and this
means a great deal for Tonopah, which
is fast being recognized by the politi-
clans of the state and the outside pub
lie generally, as the most important
city in Nevada. The selection of Tono-
pah as the convention city was accom-
plished mainly through the ~indefatig-
able efforts of Harry Sheldon and
James Deegan, representing the Tono-
pah Board of Trade, and those gentle
men and the board are entitled to the
heartfelt thanks of the business mer
and the citizens of Tonopah.

as beautiful and eminently fitting ad.

FOURTH
Concluded from first pAge)
The Electrical Workers

The large double a of the Electrical
Workers was surely something grand
to behold and a most striking exempli-
fcation of the onward march of en-
lightened progress in the mechanical
and industrial world. The first of the
two cars (which was decorated in the
highest style of the art) contained
cooking outfits and all the utensils of q
well regulated household, together with
telephones, electric lights and other af-
fairs Of modern convenience. Attached
to this car was a back-action contain
ing a generating plant operated by a
gasoline engine which provided the
power and electrical effect for the for
ward one. This feature of the parade
attracted special attention.
Car of State.
The Car of State, containing the
Goddess of Liberty, p~ersonated by Miss
Mercy Edwards, and a representation
of all the states in the union was GER
tainly very beautiful and worthy of
special mention.
Twenty-FOur Mule Team.
The 24-mule team, with the prairie
schooner, mule-cracker and swamper-
a familiar sight in early desert trans
portation, and was a good feature,
The ease with which the difficult turns
were made by the muleteer showed
that he certainly understood his bust
ness.
Building Stone.
Several cars loaded with white build
ing stone showed a feature of the in
dustries of Tonopah.
Buei and BurrO.
Last, but not least, must be men
toned A.. v. Buel, the Suns artist
and his proverbial burro. He was &C
companied by Uncle Sam, representa-
by ]. S. Sheldon. Buel was dressed i
a suit of immaculate wilderness Will
Uncle Sam was dressed in the CONVEX
tional striped trousers and starr
jacket, and was beating a drum. Bue
like BALKAN of old, has immortalize
the ass and the ass has in turn in
! mortalized him in Tonopah.
The procession moved in tours an

GREAT A RECoRD
American Commerce Gained owe
&1OO,OOO,OOO in 1905.

American Gained Over
&1OO,OOO,OOO in 0O5
The foreign m of the United
States approached surprisingly near te
the So, OOO,OOO,OOO point in the calendar
year 1905, according to a report issued
by the bureau of statistics, Department
of Commerce and Labor.
''The total. imports and exports of mer-
chandise," the report says lis $2,SO6,OOO
600, against $2,3O7, 100000 IN 1900, an
average increase of $1OO,OOO,O0O a year.
IF to the $2,SO6, 100000 of foreign
m in 1905 were added the figures
of trade with Hawaii and Porto Rico,
formerly foreign territory and included
in our statements of foreign trade prior
to 1901, the total would approximate
$1,000, o 1000, or about $6OO,OOO,0OO
more than five years ago.
Another notable characteristic of the
years foreign trade is the fact that the
exports in December were practically
$780, 600, 900, the largest months exporta-
ton in any year prior to that time be-
ing that of December, 1904, when the
total was STA, S19, 500.
1.-The import record for 1905 is also
in excess of that of any preceding year
being for the twelve months ended with
December $1.179,35S,S4 4 against $1,O35,-
9O9, 100 in 1904. The growth of imports,
while not rapid, has been steady and
continues to be so, keeping pace, approx
mately, with the growth of population.
1.-The with the non-contigu-
Gus territory of the United States also
makes a new high record for 1903. 1t
will amount to about $13O,O0O,OOO in
value, against a little less than 100000.
600 last year."
