TO HAVE STORE
IN ELY CITY
Graham Company Will Soon Occupy
Gunn.ThOmpson Building With
Establishment.

1t became known yesterday that
the Graham Mercantile company will
shortly open an establishment in Ely
City which will be quite as extensive
in stock carried and general excel
lence of conduct as the old estab-
lished house which has for a long
time stood as the leading department
and general mercantile concern in
this end Of the state.
The Ely City store which the era
ham company will open will be in the
new Gunn-Thompson building, it be-
ing understood that the large room
facing on 1lth and with entrances
also from the side street has been
leased The contractors are now put
ting the finishing touches on the
work in this big room and will prob
ably continue straight ahead with in
stalation of the store furnishings.
Beside the Graham company. it is
probable that another large mercan-
tile company not at the present time
doing business in the district, Will
open an establishment in Ely City
within the next few months. The de-
cision of the Graham company to
open in Ely City, however, has more
bearing locally, indicating as il very
plainly does the confidence the firm
feels that things are to go ahead
rapidly at the concentrator and
smelter and also that the ore line
will soon be busily engaged in work
all of which will center at Ely CITY

return of an entirely normal state of

The young lady who answers cen
tral calls during the late hours of
the afternoon has passed shocks
along the line several afternoons in
succession this week.
A no small feature of her after
noon. and generally evening duties. it
needs be explained, is TO give infor-
nation to inquirers as TO "how late"
the train is. This week, with eXcep-
ton of one evening, she has answered
these inquiries with innocent sweet
ness of tone TO the effect that the
train was ON time.
The average citizen can stand that
sort of thing once in a while, some
thing like one evening in month,
without visible suffering. But when
il comes along two or three evenings
in succession the sensation is of kind
to kipck out the strongest. Two

from what | am able to learn, the
general impression is in favor of
memorializing congress to establish
a garrison at Goldfeld or any other
point in Nevada. This state is the
only one west of the Mississippi that
has no such garrison.
Several plans are under discus
sion besides the establishment of a
federal garrison and they are the or
ganization of a state militia or the
formation of rangers. II seems that
the federal garrison is the plan most
favored.

Wingfeld said in the course of his
conversation that he had been in Salt

and that he had sent about 500 "a

have readily secured thousand men

lions having been far more numerous

RENO, Jan. United States Sen
ators Nixon and Newlands, Nevada S
representatives at Washington, are
speeding toward home to be present
at the conyening of the special ses-
sion of the legislature which opens at
Carson next Monday. They are COM
ing, so it is stated. to give their
moral support TO the state law maxi
ers in any action they may take re-
garding the situation at Goldfield.
1t is an open secret that both sem
ators will urge the retention of troops
at Godfield and the passage of such
other legislation as may be neces-
sary to insure simple protection to
the mine owners in that district.
Strong opposition to this plan is
springing up among members of both
the Democratic and Republican par
ties, and it is possible that the ses-
sion will be marked by plenty of de-
bate but no definite action. Nixon
and Newlands have anticipated this
course and they will try to convince
the legislators that action is neces-
sary to insure the future of Nevada
as a peaceful commonwealth,
