as theincorporation papers had not been
returned. However, they are here now,
and the seal is expected to arrive in a
day or two, when business will move
along rapidly.
Secretary osgood is in receipt of a
letter from Edwin L. Bride, secretary
of the Nevada Commercial Leage, con-
graduating the officers and members Of
this organization on their enterprise.
After pointing out the powerful infiu-
ence of commercial organizations in
drawing and holding trade, and stating
that the policy Of eirleague of adver-
tising Fallon and the Truckee-C Carson
project would be adhered to, he con-
cludes by saying:
"On Fallon lies vast responsibility.
You have the greatest area of produc-
tive agricultural land within the bor-
ders OF the State. This means that il
is up to Fallon to get these lands set
tied, and to make productive all the
land within the reach of your influence.
Go to it. Good luck go with you, anc
may Fallon and the Fallon Commercial
Club prosper forever.

An OId.Timer Calls at standard"

C. II. Bailey called at the STANDARD
office the first of the week to get some
garden seed. Mr.. Bailey is pioneer.
He crossed the plains to California in
1852 Thirty years ago he came to Ne
vada and settled on the ranch now con-
Quoted by his son, j. A. Bailey, adjoin-
ing the city limits on the northeast.
This is now one of the most valuable
ranch properties in this section and will
enhance in value as the town grows.
Mr. Bailey stated that his wife was in
Sparks with her daughter, Mrs. Shee-
han, where she has been for about a
year. She is afflicted with rheumatism,
from which there appears to be no re-
lief, as everything known to medical
science has been tried. Another daugh-
ter, Mrs. Mcpherson, also resides in
Sparks. MIR. Bailey appears to be in
good health and takes an interest in
everything going on, but his hearing is
badly impaired, defect much to be
deplored.

SPAULDING ON NEVADA
Says Its Population Has Nearly
Doubled in % Years

Rt Rev. Franklin Spaulding, bishop
of the missionary district of Utah, which
until the appointment of Bishop Robin
son for the State of Nevada at the last
Episcopal conference, presided over the
eastern half of this State, and who has
visited Eureka several times, recently
attended the introduction of Bishop
Robinson into his new field in Nevada.
While at Reno he said:
II was three and a half years in charge
of the work in the eastern half of this
State" remarked the Bishop, "during
which time we built two new churches,
one at Battle Mountain and the other at
Ely. We also erected two reetories at
Ely and Eureka. We have kept pace
with the development of this great State,
as best we could with two general mis-
sionaries, who Travelled over the terri
tory, and three settled rectors at par
ticular places.
1.-The State has been growing SO stead
lily during the laSt teW years tnat we
were thoroughly convinced of the desir-
ability of forming Nevada into dis
tinct organization in itself. We went
to the general conference last fall de-
termined that Nevada should have what
it sorely needed man for its own work.
The plan was carried, Bishop Robinson
is here, and the Nevada work is already
started.
"In 1886 when the State was divided,
Bishop Whitaker leaving at that time,
Nevada had population of 65,00o. 1t
now has a population of 100, 900 people,
which means proportionate increase in
the amount of work the Episcopal
Church is called upon to do throughout
the State

AFTER MORE FUNDS.
D. J. Kennedy Leaves With His
Family For Brief Trip East.

D. ]. Kennedy, wife and daughter
Miss Aileen departed Monday afternoon
for Kansas City, where they will visit
for a while with relatives, both Mr.. and
Mrs. Kennedy having relations residing
there.
Before returning to Nevada Mr.. Ken
nedy will proceed to New York, where
he will endeavor to interest capital in
the development of the Greensprings
district. The STANDARD wishes him
good luck in his undertaking. Mr.
Kennedy and his associates on the Fair
view Mizpah have been the means of
bringing into the State in the neighbor-
hood of $3.50, 900, all of which has been
spent in the development of the mineral
resources hereabouts. All during the
financial stringency they kept the work
on their properties going, and paid out
thousands of dollars to the miners for
work and the merchants for supplies.
That is what is called legitimate min
ing, and the records speaks for the hon.
esty and enterprise of the management
of the Fairview Mizpah.
Joe Jarvis, of the banking house of
Douglass q Jarvis, who has lease on
the Fairview Mizpah, came in from
Fairview Monday. To representative
of the STANDARD he said that just be-
fore leaving it was reported that the
last shots put in Saturday on the Chan
doin lease of the Mizpah broke down
ore in the east drift that would run over
$500 to the ton. The ore resembles the
rich high grade from the Nevada Hills.
This lease now has 270 feet of stopping
ground. Ben Chandoin, the lucky owner
of the lease, is one of the best known
and most experiencedminers in theState.
He was a partner in the rich Kendall
lease in the Goldheld district.

Death OF Mrs. COrbeiI.

Mrs. A. Corbeil died Monday, of
cancer, after lingering illness. She
was the wife of A. Corbeil, an indus
trioas rancher living a few miles from
town. The remains were inferred in
Fallon cemetery Tuesday afternoon,
which were followed to the grave by a
large number of friends and neighbors.
Father Laffen, of Sparks, preached a
sermon at the grave.
This is a particularly sad case, as the
poor woman had been dying for months
with this dread disease. for which there
is no remedy. She left husband and
four children to mourn her loss.
