n SOLD
c X. Jarvis Purchases a Splendid
Ranch Property

A deal for ranch lands has Just been
closed and the transfer OF 100 acres Of
land from [. II. Kent to c. X. Jarvis
effected, which is OF much interest to
this section, as well as Churchill county.
1t demonstrates the fact that Churchill
county offers inducements for invest.
ments in a real estate way, and that
much OF the wealth now being taken
out Of the mining camps may remain
with us, and be the means Of developing
the wonderful resources OF the irrigation
district.
The land sold lies Just west of the
Kent addition, and in part directly Joins
it. Part OF it is IN a high state OF cul-
tiyation, and the round price paid for
whole was $50 per acre, making a total
OF 1920 with Which Mr.. Jarvis parted
to acquire this valuable tract. 1t is the
intention OF the owner to take charge of
the property at once. Robinson &
Nlldes, OF Fallon arc now figuring on
the plans for q residence and other
buildings for Mr.. Jarvis Headquarters.
The location is desirable for a farm. and
any part OF it will afford a beautiful
bnIlding site, the tract being Il part Of
the same body OF land from Which
Kent's addition was surveyed. Mr..
Jarvis possessions will border the town,
and come down 10 tho old Saltwater
and WadsWorth road, which also forms
the main street OF the town. The en-
tire tract slopes gently towards the
slough, and the most excellent drainage
is available.

iul state. Our state markets will grow
q great deal more rapidly than will our
W agricultural development.

aging condition, and he continually
brings the dark side into his converse
ton.

A, Hold him up to the scorn Of the
community, and ~ostraeize him from the
society OF his fellow man,
Q. Who is the finest fellow you
know
\. A member Of the Chamber OF
Commerce, who always has a good word
for the Truckee- Carson project.
Q. How will this mar be rewarded

sections in the United States; by seeing
communities spring up on every side,
by having rs his dying thoughts the
memory of the earnest efforts he has

An important decision relating to the
relocation Of mining claims has been
rendered by the District Court of Colo
RADIO. The court holds that locators of
mining claims who fail to do the annual
assessment work prescribed by law,
have as much right to relocate the
ground as any one else. When the To-
Gator fails to do the assessment work
required in order to hold his claim, the
property reverts to the United States
and therefore anyone including the
original locator has the right to locate
it at any time. This is certainly just
and proper for it does not deprive any
one of his rights. Of course a claim
owner who fails to do assessment work
and attempts to relocate the claim loses
it if some one gets there ahead of him,
1t is always safer to do the work and
trke no chances of losing the ground.

four foot cross vein that carries $500.

fell from the 700 foot level
to the bottom of the shaft, a distance
of 43O feet, last Monday morning and
was instantly killed, his body being
mangled beyond recognition. The body
bounded from timber to timber on its
fall and the man must have been dead
long before he reached the rocks at the
bottom, as his brains were spattered on
the walls. A %coroner's jury was en-
paneled by Judge Brissell, which after
listening to the evidence adduced, re-
turned a verdict of accidental death.
The deceased was about As years of age
and leaves a brother in Baker City

OFFICIAL PAPER OF NYE COUNTY.
CIRCULATION IN TONOPAH
TOM LOGAN Ar REST.

The cold-blooded murder of Nye
County's popular sheriff, by an
absinthe fiend last Saturday, has been
the sole topic of conversation by the
peonle of Tonopah during the past
week and on every hand, the opinion
was expressed that the inhuman wretch
who committed the foul deed should be
given a speedy trial and a chance to
bangle at the end of a rope at Carson
as soon as possible.
Tom Logan as he was familiary
called by the people of Nye County,
who loved him for his many manly
traits of character, his fearlessness in
the discharge of his duty and his hon
esty of purpose at all times, was a mar
amongst men. He believed that pub
lie Office is a public trust and not a
private snap and it was his aim and en-
deavor at all times to serve the people
of the county faithfully and honestly
Though ~big-hearted and gentle in his
ways he knew not the meaning of the
word fear. He was a firm believer il
justice and right and was always +;
friend of the poor and oppressed
Many a story of some kindly act, som'
charitable deed performed by Ton
! Logan, has beer told during the pas
few days, with a tear in the eye of h
who told it.
His untimely removal from this eartl
to the great unknown world beyond ha
cast a gloom over the community AM
the heartfelt sympathy of all goes on
to the grief-stricken relatives in thi
hour of their bereavement. Tor
Logan has passed from this earth, bu
he is sleeping in another and a bette
world. Honored and beloved in life h
is mourned in death.

Nevada Rich in Copper.

The copper output Of the United
States is about 60 per cent of the total
annual output of the world, and nearly
the whole output of the United States
is produced by Montana, Michigan,
Arizona and Utah. which rank as pro-
ducers in the order named. 1t is my
candid and conservative judgment that
this one deposit at Ely is not only
greater than all of Montana's all of
Michigan's, all of A%rizona's, all of
Utah's, but greater in valne than all
yet known or believed to exist in Mon
tana, Michigan, Arizona and Utah all
Jumped together. | have studied the
mineral of Nevada pretty
carefully for a long time, and l have
been over the State a great deal, and
in all parts of tin every county.
There are undoubtedly in every camp
from a few to scores of intelligent
mining men who understand the min
eral character of that camp better than
l do, but probably there are few who
understand all the mineral sources of
the whole State as well as l..
| make this observation only to give
credibility to my statement that New
ada is very rich in copper and that the
deposits have a wide distribution, anc
that, in my opinion, leaving this stu.
pendous deposit at Ely altogether Out
of the calculation, Nevada is destined
to become the greatest producer of cop
per in the world whenever the indus
trial interests of the world requires tht

LOGAN
Is AT REST
Brave Officer a Martyr to
Duty Reposes in Peaceful
Sleep in Tonopah Cemetery.

All that was mortal of the brave
Thomas w. Logan, was laid to rest in
the Tonopah cemetery last Thursday
afternoon in the presence of thousands
of mourning friends.
The body had lain in state in the
Opera house from an early hour Thurs
day forenoon and %sorrowing friends
took advantage of the opportunity to
place floral tributes about the brier.
Long before the hour set for the
funeral services, the big hall was filled
to overlooking and those who could not
gain admittance thronged the nearby
streets.
The services were very Impressive
the Odd Fellows having charge. Noble
Grand, C. G.. Hansen, Vice-Grand John
White, Deputy District Grand Master
George Swasey, Warden R. B. Davis
and Conductor w. W. Stuck officiated.
A quartette composed of Mrs. William
Grimes, Mrs. Wylie, DR.. Victors and
DIR. King rendered sweet sacred music.
C. H. Mcintosh delivered an address
that was couched in appropriate Ian
guage and his many touching illusions
to the noble manly qualities of the
dead sheriff, brought tears to the eyes
of his hearers.
At the conclusion of the services,
the procession was formed, led by the
Tonopah band and moved down
Brougher Avenue to Main street and
thence to the cemetery. The casket
rested on the hook and ladder truck and
the fire department with chief Jack Me-
Kenzie at its head acted as a guard OF
honor. The p~all-bearers were K. F.
Gilbert, WI. Sinclair, and w. j. Doug
lass, representing the Odd Fellows ano
George Cole, Curley Graham and Bob
Govan, representing the Eagles.
Upon the cortege reaching the little
plot in the cemetery, which is to be the
last resting place Of the beloved Ton
, Logan, Tonopah Aerie of Eagles as
sumed charge and conducted the fina
ceremonies. Judge Sawle, president o.
the Aerie, Chaplain Walker and the
other officers of the aerie read the i'm
pressive funeral service of the order il
the presence of the thousands of sympa
. thizeing friends, who stood with head
, barred and tears in their eyes.
, The funeral cortege was one of tn
=, longest ever seen in Tonopah, or as
matter of fact in Nevada. Bushes
i, was at a standstill, every store an
every office closing their doors as
mark of respect to the dead official
who had done more than any other ma
to give Tonopah the proud distinetio
of being the most peacable, law abidin
NH kg camp on the face of the earth
= n Logan was a faithful public sci

J pie of Nye county at heart at all time
. and died a martyr to duty. May h
rest in peace.
