Nevada Boundary Line.

California was admitted as a state
to the Union in 1949, and had the
same boundaries then that it now has.
Colorado was admitted as q state in
1915, and is consequently known as
the Centennial State. Nevada, origin
ally a territory, was formed from the
western portion of Utah. At that
time its eastern boundary was the
30th meridian, and it's southern
boundary was the 37th parallel. On
October 30, 1864 it was admitted as a
state, it's eastern boundary being
changed to the 39th meridian (ap-
proXimately the 1t2th meridian west
from Greenwich), it's southern bound
AIRY remaining the same. In 1866 Con
gress again changed it's Eastern bound
AIRY one degree eastward making it
the 18th meridian, and the triangular
portion lying between the 37th paral-
tel. the California state line, the
Colorado river and the 9th meridian
was added, giving the State it's pres
ent shape. Arizona was formed from
New Mexico in 1868, by dividing the
latter t'rritory on the 32nd meridian

The "Dadless" Boy

Some unknown versifier has perp;
trated the folio wing:
They've made q wireless telegraph,
A horesless carriage too,
And there's no way Of telling what
The mind of man can do
Well soon be eating henless eggs
And drinking cowless milk.
And wearing clothes of sheepless wool
Or maybe worthless silk.
How would you like a treeless peach
Or piece Of hogless pork.
I'd be content if they'd invent
A kind Of voorhees, work. ..
They'll yet make wireless telephones
Or maybe moiseless noise,
And Pm afraid if they keep on
They'll yet make "dadless" boys.

Good Mining Advice.

In all address delivered before the
Graduating class of the Colorado School
of mines on May %, 1908, Thomas +.
Walsh, one of the leading mining men
of Colorado, gives miners some sound
practical advice, and the following is an
extract:
In the examination and sampling of
mines, be Industrious, thorough, honest
and conservative. Sample, assay and
measure your ore bodies with great care
See to it that your samples are not tam:
pered with. Do not give the small but
attractive pay streak any greater repre-
sentation than its size justifies. Rich
specimen assays It is best to throw out;
otherwise they will swell your assays to
a figure. that will not be reached in ac-
tual results. Rich ore in mine has a
magnetic attraction for some; it eer-
tainly has for me, and it is difficult to
be conservativeG,in sampling my own
mine. To enlarge a pay streak of two
or three inches into one of as many feet,
and transform expectations into sterl-
ing realities, are. feats I have often
accomplished in my mind. Mining is
an industry so fun of hope that it tends
to make optimists of it's devotees. Be-
ware of this intoxication. Keep cool
heads and be conservative in your ex-
animation work, always bearing in
mind that You are apt to be checked up
and confronted by pract II results. 1
have always believed in making all
most endless assays; and also in test
ing every kind of rock in a NINE
and to this owe, in part, what
success l have had. SO 1 say to you,
do not be stingy in assaying."

BRYAN A GREAT LEADER

Never enthusiastic over Bryan and
rather disposed to adverse criticism,
we We're never counted among the
Bryan wOrshipers and we will not be SO
counted today This, however cannot
prevent us from regarding Bryan as he
is today and stating the opinion thus
formed openly and above board
The like of Bryan has never appeared
i'll this country before His greatness
has grown upon the people and, today
he stands before them the most power
tul American who ever rose to eminence,
either upon his own merits or through
the heritage from somebody else. No
instance has heretofore occurred, nor
can any instance he expected hereafter
to occur i'll which the people have SO
Slgnally expressed their confidence in
any man. 1t is strange beyond con-
lecture, complex beyond solution and
intricate beyond demonstration. 80
Without Office, without patronage,
without wealth, Bryan has more i'll
huence in the United States today than
any five men that could be named, in
Guiding both Roosevelt and Taft.
What it is that has put him next to the
hearts of the people We do not pretend
TO say. 1t is beyond our reasoning and
above our conception
Some say that he is loved likeClay WAS
loved; othC IS that he has magnetic
power over the hearts of his partisans
Us Blaine had, and more contend that
he is revered. But the truth is, that
neither the case of Clay nor Blaine nor
ot Lincoln furnishes u parallel. The
love for Clay was largely sectional and
PARTISAN, and the affection of the masses
for Blaine was largely confined to the
ranks of his own party. Lincoln was
not rcvercd in his lifetime. In two
thirds Of the land of this great country
he WAS unpopular after the assassin's
bullet had made him national MARTYR,
Clay had patronage and represented
wealth; Lincoln had patronage but ne
stood for the lowly and the weak.
although he was not clearly understood
until death removed the din and dust of
the fierc" combat in which h WAS thu
stern arbtcr.

Significance And Derivation 81 Names OF
National Forests Ia Nevada


A recent bulletin of the forest service
says: .."
In the process of redistricting the
National Forests which has just been
com oleted, numerous changes were
made. These changes were by no
means haphazard or arbitrary. The
new names have been chosen on account
of their Importance in local and
National history, and they will serve
for all times as reminders of the men
and events connected with our progress
from the pioneer days. Merely to read
them Understandings is to trace the
salient facts of western growth and
development.
The National Forests in Nevada,
with the significance and derivation of
their names, are as follows:
The Humboldt National Forest is
named from the county, lake, noun
tain. and river in the State, which were
nanel after the distinguished geog-
rapher Alexander Won Humboldt, who
after extensive travels in Europe I'M
dertook a scientific journey to South
America and Mexico, the result of
which were published in u series of
WORKS with the general title Voyages
to the Equinoxal Regions of the New
Continent This Forest has an area
of 55S,679 acres and is in charge of
Supervisor G. Sydney Tremewan, with
headquarters ut Elko.
The Moapa National Forest derives
It's name from the Moapa valley, which
was named after the .Piute band of
NJ 'apAriats, meaning mosquito creek
people" who lived in or near this
valley in southern Nevada. This
Forest includes 345,OO5 acres, and is
administered by Acting Supervisor H.
T.. NJ l5hews, with headquarters at Las
Vegas
The Toiyabe National Forest is
named from the long range of mount
AIMS which traverse the southwestern
part of Lander County and the north
ern parts of Nye and Esmeralda coun-
ties. The name is of Indian origin and
signifies big hills" The area included
i'll this Forest is 1866, 69s acres. Sup
ervisor David Barnett is in charge,
with headquarters at Austin.
As new Forests are created it is the
intention of the Forest Service to name
them ~ as to perpetuate the names of
men and events prominently connected
with the history and development of
the western country.
