GARONtRv|LlE MEN
BUY GOV. ALIENS RANCH

The well known stockmen. Francis
and James Ezell, came up from their
big ranch near Gardncrville last Fri
day, remained over Sunday, and on
Tuesday closed 4 deal with former
Lieutenant Governor Allen, the
present district attorney of Churchill
county, whereby they acquired the
ownership OF the splendid Allen ranch
consisting OF 1890 acres, about four
miles southwest of town The price
paid was $50 an acre. making a total
of s30,90o. IN addition to this they
purchased a quantity OF stock.
It is the intention OF the Messrs.
EzeH to convert the property into a
big stock ranch, which yyiIl be practic-
ally duplicate OF that at Gardner
Vile. The latter is considered one OF
the finest properties in that section
and the brothers recently refused an
offer of $4,000 for their holdings.
They will take possession OF the
Allen place on January /. The sale
was cOnsumated through the efforts
OF Deputy District Attorney P n
Packard who is an old friend OF The
Ezell brothers.
The price paid for the property is
pretty complete evidence that the
price OF real estate in and around Fal-
lon is constantly soaring upward

Bribery Charges are Made

The following from today's Reno
Gazette may be OF interest to those
who have had freight shipments on
theroad for the past month:
According to information received
from an official source charges OF
bribery have been made against GER
tain Southern Pacific officials in
Sparks and Sacramento and arrests
may soon follow.
1t was rumored last evening that
certain officials of Sparks had been
bribed by Tonopah and Goldfeld
firms and also by San Francisco firms
to rush their freight through from
San Francisco and Sacramento into
the southern mining camps ahead OF
all other freight.
The names of the officials could not
be learned but prominent railroad
man in Reno stated today that for
some time the yard men of Sparks
and Nina have been suspected of ac-
cepting bribes and that last week sew
eral yard men in Sparks were dis
charged by superintendent Rowlands
for that reason.
He also stated that the company
would investigate certain matters in
Nina and everything possible would
be done to prevent further bribery of
the railroad employees by the mer-
chants of Tonopah and Goldfield and
by the wholesale firms of San Fran
cisco and Sacramento.
A large automobile firm in San
Francisco last night gave out infor-
nation concerning the bribery of GER
tain railroad men in Sparks an Sac.
ramento by several wholesale firms OF
San Francisco.
This firm alleges that one whole
sale firm had given money to Sparks
railroad men to discriminate in the
handling of freight and sent its freight
through ahead of it's general order. 1,

Most of the work will be done
through the incline shaft of the Ish-
Sheets lease, but to take out the esti

six months, and if the extraction goes
on at the rate figured by interested
parties, the company must raise to
the surface about 100 tons a day. The
Kalfus workings are credited with the
richest ore in camp, not barring the
Hayes -Monnette lease, as the ore

the property appropriated through the
eXigencies of war are still unfuiflled.
III consequence of this China is ex-
pressing much Indignation at what
IS considered a gross breach of faith.
Yet the recovery is considered doubt
full of a large amount of government
and private property in numerous
places throughout Manchuria which
was appropriated by Japan without
compensation. on the sole pretext that
China had failed to observe neutrality
in allowing Russia to occupy these
buildings. mines and land
This excuse is not considered hon
est, because japan is fully aware of
China's helplessness to enforce neu-
trality, while Japan in regard to the
abuse Of neutrality is considered
equally guilty. Russia holds much
appropriated property which has been
leased to Japan traders without any
compensation to China.
