Those who desire to pay their taxes
through the mail would expedite mat
ters by dropping the Treasurer postal
asking for the amount of their tax so
as to avoid sending the wrong amount,
also stating the township or townships,
(if property is owned in more than
one) and if possible give school district
where property is located, also state
whether poll or road tax, or both are
wanted. After paying taxes examine
your receipts and see if all of your
property is covered if not, see about
it at once.
By following the above suggestions
complications and additional cost may
be avoided.

vada State Teachers Association will

The law makes attendance at county

that teachers shall be compensated for
the time taken for such attendance by
their districts in like manner as if they
continued to teach during the institute
week. ~ 2
"'School boards are requested TO excuse
all teachers for this purpose without
loss of salary. Only those who actually
attend the institute should be thus
compensated. ...-
Teachers may secure transportation
on most'of the railroads of the state for
half fare by writing Superintendent
Ring for the appropriate credentials.
Most teachers are familiar with this
arrangement. Others may write Super

CONTACT. A GREAT CAMP

Every mining engineer examining
Contact, Elko county, Nevada, is conf
dent Contact will make the worlds
greatest copper camp. From the heavy
investments now being made in Contact
mining properties by mining men of
long experience, it is generally conceded
that Contact will quickly make great
er camp than Ely, Nevada, Bingham,
Utah, and Butte, Montana. Most in
teresting about this opinion, is the pur-
chases in Contact of mining properties
are being made by mining men at
present interested in the previously
mentioned camps of Ely, Bingham and
Butte. What adds more wealth to the
Contact ores, as compared to those of
other copper camps. is the extra values
in silver and some gold.
The Oregon Short Line has decided to
begin the immediate construction of q
line from Twin Falls, Idaho, through
Contact, to point on the main line of
the Southern Pacific just west of Cobre.
Not only will this give good outlet for
Contact ores, but will very much aid in
the development of the country around
Contact This road is being built
principally for the purpose of making
the Montana and Yellowstone Park
traffic several hundred miles nearer the
Pacific Coast by taking this cut off, in
stead of going first to Ogden, Utah, and
| to furnish a new route for certain trans
continental traffic destined to Nevada
California points, by avoiding the very
much congested route at present through
| Ogden.
The new TOWNSHIP of Contact, which
will be on this railroad, and the Salmon
River, is owned by the Western Town
site Company, of Salt Lake City, Utah,
of which Frederick T. McGurrin is
president. These TOWNSHIP lots will
shortly be offered for SALE in limited
number, on most favorable terms, and
parties in Elko, and other points in
Nevada who wish to apply for or pur-
chase one or more of these lots at Con
tact, should call on or write Frederick
T. McGurrin, or II. w. Hammond
Commercial Hotel, Elko, Nevada be-
tween now and December 10, 1908.
There is not any raason why these
lots at Contact, at $4,000 each, in easy
payments, should not make as com
paratiVe fortune for the owners as was
experienced in the other Nevada min
ing camps like Goldfeld, Tonopah and
Ely. The life of Il copper camp is much
longer than either gold, silver or lead,
as millions of dollars must be invested
before single dollar in dividends can
be taken ont of the place.
