be independently OF another. The
plants would be some so miles a.
part.
Owing to the fact that the COM
pany is backed by such unlimited
capital it would be of little signiti-
cience for them to incur the ex-
pense of running lines to principle
towns of Western Nevada as we'll
as the rich mining camps which
have sprung into existence in the
southern part of the state during
the past few years. Everyone Of
these town are looking for cheap
power and lights, especially in the
mining camps where SO much
power is used to operate mills and
reduction plants. In Western Ne
vada, there are numerous industries
which have need for cheap power.
While there are several electric
companies doing business in Ne
vada, they furnish anything but
cheap power. They do not hesi-
tate to tax their customers every
cent that can be possibly obtained.
The Standard company can fur
nish power which would be classed
cheap, and for the good of the
sagebrush state, We hope that the
company is taking steps to enter
Nevada with their power lines.

HIGH SCHOOL IS ASSURED.

teachers as well as the pupils.
The new school will be conducted
strictly as high school. 1t will
be brought up to the highest point
of efficiency and outclassed only by
the university. The advantages
will be manifold and it is reason
able to suppose that parents will
not be slow in grasping the splen-
did opportunity of educating their
children at this home instution.
The voters have showed they are
imbued with the spirit of progress
iveness, which today is making Ne
vada the most talked-of State in
the Union.

Scarce

There is big shortage in wood
in this section this fall. Buyers
from Virginia City have purchased
every available stick of Pinenut
wood, paying - a cord at the Min
den depot. This brings the price
far above that of former years, as
we'll as causing a shortage in the
local market. Wood is wood, Just
now, whether it be Pinenut or the
ordinary pine wood. While it is
utterably impossibly to purchase
Pinenut wood here today at any
price.

A person does not need look the

PROMISES TO BE
SENSATIONAL

Contrary to all expectations, DIR.
+. II. Wichman has rallied from
the attack of blood-poisoning and
is now on the road to recovery.
His arm is still badly swollen and
the bones have not started to knit,
but his physicians state that with
proper care he will soon be able to
leave his bed and that there is new
no danger of death. Dir. Wichman
maintains that he is not guilty of
assaulting Miss Fine, and that he
will prove himself innocent of the
charge when the matter is brought
up. He also states that he is in
nocent of performing criminal
operation upon Lilly Benson whom
he is accused of numbering. He
stated that he is the victim of a
conspiracy, and that when given a
trial in the District court he will
prove that he is not as bad as he
has been painted. He states that
some sensational developments will
be made in the Benson case when
he is tried on the murder charge.
The wounded physician intimates
that other physicians of Rono will
be brought into the case before it is
finished, but aside from this will
not say what the sensational de-
velopments will be. Reno Gazette.

A party of surveyors, working for
the Standard Electric Company
have been running lines thru Hope
Valley from the Blue Lake country
for the past two months. They
hade completed their work in that
section and are now on the upper
Carson river, and we are informed
they are working this way. The
purpose of this work is not defnit-
ly known, more than one of the
party is credited with saying that
the State of Nevada would be
greeted with surprise.
The Standard Electric company
is one of the strongest power com
panies on the Pacific coast and is
backed by some $S0,0OO,0o. They
