Representative Hughes was greeted
with applause from the other members
when called upon by the Speaker. He
confessed being embarrassed and nerv-
u but showed neither in the excellent
address delivered. He characterized
the present session as one of honesty
and industry and setting a high mark
for future members to follow.
He feared that some of his down
town political friends would say he had
wheels in his head for saying this, but
he felt both sane and sober and ap-
pealed 10 the records to back up his
assertions. The work accomplished
would place Hawaii on a better foot
ing with the mainland and raised the
Territory still higher on the ladder of
Americanism and earned a greater
share to a place under the one great
banner of the Republic. To Governor
Carter, who had prepared the early
work of the session, and to Prince
Kuhio, who had kept the spirit of har-
mony alive, the thanks of the House
were due.
He referred ittingly to the good
work of the twenty odd Hawaiian
members of the House and also spoke
in praise of the representatives Of the
press who had reported the House
proceedings. The press had been criti-
cal but fair and deserved the thanks
of the members.

for their gift, assuring them that this
would be priced and kept by him
through life. To the representatives
of the press he extended the hanks
of the House for courtesies shown.

which the business of the Legislature
has been conducted. He lauded Pres
ident Bishop for the fairness of his
rulings and in appreciation of this
fairness presented on behalf of his col

affair was quietly done and was un-
doubtedly a great surprise, as was

NEVADA'S 43RD BIRTHDAY

October 81, 1907, was the 43d an
niyersary of the day on which President
Lincoln signed the document completing
the admission OF Nevada as a state.
There are not many people in Nevada to-
day who can tell obout what happened
In those exciting times 40 years back.
but what is recalled is of great interest
to the new generation.
Reno was not on the map then nor
until four years later when the railroad
came through. Virginia was the big
town and the times that were had dur
ing the boom of the Comstock read to-
day like a fable.
Nevada was originally called the
washoe country and was not organized
as a territory until 1861. A provisional
government. however. had been estab-
ushed in 1858 under Isaac Roop. A year
later in 1859 the Comstock lode was
discovered. which in the ten years that
followed produced $l37 .9oo.0 900 in silver.
In September. 1853, an election was heio
for delegations to form q state constitu-
ton who went into convention at Car
son. November 2. ~adjourning December
II in some spirit of contention.
The constitution proposed by the nrst
convention was rejected by the people
owing to some political rivalry among
the candidates for office. but principally
on account of a clause permitting the
taxing Of shafts. drills and bedrock
tunnels" Congress passed another en-
abling act in March. 1854. and the new
constitution as amended was accepted
nv the people in the following July at a
sneeial election. The fact that the new
state of Nevada would have a repre-
sentation of three in the electoral col
lege which could be counted on by the
Republicans was a strong feature I'M
Melting the admission of the state at
that time as was the more important
reason of the immense production OF
wealth from the mines. The president
was not slow to sign the proclamation
of statehood. which act occurred as
stated on October 81. 1854.
James w. Nye had been territorial
governor from 1861 to 1864 and was sue
ceeded by Henry @. Blaisdell at the cleo
ton held in November.
Ex-Governor Nye became a candidate
for the United States senate and was
elected senator with William NJ. Stew
art of Storey county.
Daniel Boyd, the present county
treasurer OF washoe county. remembers
the events of war times very well and
told some "reminiscences yesterday, says
the Reno Journal.
THE Comstock was booming in those
days. but II was before the time of the
Bic Four Flood. Mackay. Fair and
O'Brien. At that time they used to To-
cate their mines in a different way, the
first locator being able to locate just
about the way he wanted to. Ordin-
arily they claimed 200 feet on the vein
and IL il was a stock company a
member had a right to a similar amount.
something like placer locations low.
The big consultations did not come I'M
til later. when the small owners found
their funds going down so that they
organized into larger companies. Then
they went down 100 feet. when they
struck water II dug the Sutro tunnel"
The Goldfield news. [volume] (Goldfield, Nev.) 1904-1911, 1907-11-02

Referring to the statement that In
those times the telegraph wires were
strung on sagebrush. Mr.. Boyd said:
THAT used to be a joke. but the reason
was that the telegraph lines were put
through here very rapidly when they
got started. They went down by Carson
City and Placerville and used the cot
tonwoods along the river banks. They
cut some OF the trees and planted them
quickly and as the weather was good
some OF them sprouted and the limbs
had to be trimmed frequently"
James Sullivan, one of the pioneers
of Nevada, told some of the stories of
the political warfares in 1864. They
used to tell about Governor Nye and
his efforts to land the United States
senatorship after the election OF the
first legislature. Some of his opponents
charged that he secured the ONCE by
promise TO Civ away logs which he had
the power to dispose of. After his cleo
ton a commission was appointed to In
vestigate the charge and they reported
that they found a mill along the river
for a millsite. but they. didn't find logs
for a dam by a damsite.'
.Those were the days of the Overland
stage. Whicn maze TRIPS Dctwccu 81
Joseph. Mo, and Placerville. 1t cost
two bits to mail a letter on that stage
line. and a letter to Michigan would
cost 81. People travelled from California
in great numbers TO Gold Hill and Vfr-
ginia and I remember Walking down
TAYLOR from b to c street when 1t was
all / could do to crowd through on the
street. there were so many people on the
street. They were from everywhere on
the globe. The women still chung to
hoopskirts. and when a lady came along
there was always a self-appointed body
guard to clear an open space Tor her.
Reno was not on the map then and did
not come until 1865.
The people that were around in those
days are nearly all gone. but those who
saw the boom days In the Comstock Will
never see such times again. If a man
did not behave himself he got swift
justice. but on the whole 1t was a law
abiding community"

oADDn1 MILL DoABED or
sayooo IN GOLD P1ECTPITArBs

A lone robber mad a raid on the
Gardner mill. located at the foot of the
malapai in the southern end of the city
Wednesday night. and holding up two
watchmen. proceeded to take he pre-
cipitate from the plates. He placed his
loot valued at about $4,000 in a sack and
made his escape.
The Gardner mill was the first one
built in Goldfeld and had been idle for
a long time until 1t was leased about
six months ago by J. J. Fitzpatrick who
has been making a nice cleanup by
working over the tailings.
