Republican Primary

For the first time in many years, the
Republicans of Lyon county held pri-
maries and elected delegates to a county
convention last Wednesday. The pri-
maries were held all over the county un-
der the call made and the convention
will be held in Yerington next Monday.
In Yerington there were 40 pames on
the primary ballot from which to select
the 20 delegates to which Mason Valley
precinct is entitled. There were " votes
cast and those chosen to be delegates,
with the vote each one received, are as
follows:
G. w. Knierim IS, G. w. Nye "a, F..
Van Alstine 61, II. Hanson "a, Grant
Moler IS, A. A. Arends 50, w. d. Dav-
idson, CIR. f. Weber 4S, G. Z. Leavit "a,
N. A. Chisholm so, F. M. Burner 90,
VIM. Reymers 81, ]. A. Carter sS, ]. Z.
Hamsaker AZ, E. A. Dillon 81, II. Hi
ronymous So, c. c. Young So, George
Ambrose 50, Frank S. Cox SIS, VIM. Nc
Taggart So.
There was considerable interest mani
tested, but the party did not nearly poll
its vote. Some dissatisfaction was ex-
pressed as to the form and arrangement
of the ballot, but there seems to be dis
position on the part of the members OF
the party to urge the putting up OF
strong ticket and then electing it.
Republicans all over the county will
await the action of the convention next
Monday with great interest, as it marks
the beginning of party organization and
the end of the unsatisfactory petition
condition.

Special Water Election

Next Monday is the date set for the
special election to be held in Yerington
for the purpose of voting on the propo-
sition of granting to III. w. Esden a
franchise for the purpose of supplying
the city with water system From the
fact that an election has been called on
the granting of this franchise it is evil
dent that the people of the city do not
consider the Esden proposition the best
Zone that can be obtained in fact there is
another proposition before the city coun-
Gil which will be acted upon just as
soon as the Esden proposition has been
decided by the people. This second
proposition is one presented by F. w.
Fairbanks and his associates and has
many advantages over the Esden scheme.
In the first place rates are lower and the
city is given the privilege of taking over
the system at any time that it may see
fit to issue bonds and do so, thereby cre-
ating municipal ownership of its water
work plant.
In voting against the Esden franchise
you must not consider that you are vet
ing against a water works for the city,
but that you are voting to give some
body chance to put in better system
at less expense to the taxpayers of the
city.
That Mr.. Fairbanks and his associates
are in earnest in their endeavor to pro-
vide the city with water for fire and do
mestic purposes is evidenced by the fact
that a great quantity of pipe is now
being landed on the ground from San
Francisco, and as soon as few details
of reorganization of water matters in
which quite fewof Yerington's citizens
have an interest can be effected the work
of installing the system will be pushed
with rapidity.
The polling places and inspectors of
election for this special election have
been fixed as follows:
First Ward-Polling place, Craig build
ing, formerly occupied by the Lyon
County Bank; Inspectors, George John
stone, c. B. Waldo and c. Hernleben.
Second Ward-Polling place, Apsev
building, now used as Council Chamber;
Inspectors, H. Hanson, J. T. Sweat and
J. w. McAllister.

The reports from the camp at Buck
skin are of the best 1t is certain that
the people there are sure they have a
camp or the activity being displayed
would not be. There are new mines
being developed and old workings start
ing up. The oil excitement has also
reached that camp and they think they
have as good a showing as any of them.
The Kennedy Consolidated started up
the 9th with two shifts composed of 80
men, They are doing pothing but de-
velopment work, but the ore taken out
in doing this work runs about $50 TO the
ton in gold The shaft was down about
120 feet when they began work this
time but they are going to put it much
deeper before they begin taking out ore
in earnest.
The Albany Copper Co. also put on
two shifts the 9Th. working IL men
This property had been closed down for
some time, SO this is an absolute gain to
the pay roll of the camp. This company
has a very large body of low grade cop
per and those who have examined it
speak very highly of it.
The oil lands are now being located
within two miles of the town, and they
think they have the best showing of any
of them in the fact of finding the greater
amount of indications, oil sand, fossils
bone, etc., in the shale and many other
indications that their oil men tell them
are of the best. The original oil find
was eight miles southeast of their town.
| The observation of Labor Day in this
camp was pleasant and appropriate.
They met in the evening and were en-
tertained and instructed by speech by
w. H. Burton on Labor and Labor
Unions,' after which ice cream and
cake was served at the hotel and good
time was had. The celebration ended
with big dance.

VOLUME L.


Last Tuesday while Vic Bernard, Chas.
Gallagher and Ira Wagner were hunt
ing the firing pin of the gun used by
Mr. Bernard broke and the piece flew
b.ck and hit him on the nose. His
comoanions could not tell how badly he
was injured as the bleeding from the
wound was very profuse. He was
brought to town and the doctor took
tour fragments of bone from the wound
on his nose and it required several
s,;tches to close the cut. Mr.. Bernard
Is very fortunate to be able to be around
Nth nothing more than a bandage to
show for the injury.
Mr. WAGNER went back to the place
IN the hunting ground where the injury
occurred after the injured man was
brought in and found the firing pin and
also the duck that Mr.. Bernard had
killed with the shot that injured him.
He is very much pleased that he did not
miss the bird,

Our Reno Letter
Reno, Nevada, Sept. IA, /

Ier1ngton Times: Yerlngton was well
represented here the past week. Sena-
tor Barney Reymers examined all the
pumpkins and other vegetables at the
State fair and tried to get permanent
job on the Reno baseball team.
Nick Hironymous was here with his
fine driving team and took blue rib
bon, first prize, even though he was un-
able to get fancy buggy to hitch to for
the parade. His team certainly per-
formed like veterans and acted as proud
as though they had pedigrees a mile
long.
Mr.. and Mrs. Lamberson took in the
races and enjoyed city life for few
days.
The State Journal says: Getty Coun-
Gilman Ross of Yerington was caller at
Democratic headquarters yesterday. He
is out for the Assembly nomination in
his county and expects to win it. The
county, he says, is assuredly in the DEM
ocratic ranks
Joe Wilson of Nordyke is among the
interested ones here who are trying to
get settlement of the water rights OF
the valley.
About fifteen witnesses are here repre-
senting the Walker Water Association
in the case against Miller & Lux. The
hearing will last the entire week.
d. w. Melarkey, county clerk, spent
Tuesday in Reno and was caller at
Democratic State headquarters.
A new railroad project is being talked
here. The Yerington family, who are
operating the V. & T. railroad, have
formed corporation for the building of
an independent smelter about FIVE miles
from Carson City. The smelter will be
especially equipped with all the latest
machinery for treating copper ores, and
the copper ore will have to come from
the Yerington district. A corporation
will be formed to build railroad from
Mound House to Yerington and the
Southern Pacific will have to hurry if
they expect to get the first railroad into
the Greater Yerington district. There
is no district in the State more talked
about in Reno today than Yerington.
Dewitt Crowningshield took in the
State fair and was listening to all the
good music to be heard in the city Sat
urday and Sunday.
Robert Ames of Smith Valley saw the
sights at the race track Saturday and is
remaining over this week on account Of
the water suit.
c. +. Holland of the Yerington hotel
is trying the Reno hotels this week to
see if they know how to feed people
right. He expects to be compelled to
90 home the last of the week to get a
square meal.
The campaign is just beginning to get
interesting, and the general opinion
seems to be that Bryan and Newlands
will carry Nevada by good safe major
tiles. Senator Newlands will visit Yer
ington during the campaign and you will
all be given an opportunity to meet him
and hear him talk.

FORESTERS' FAIR.

The members of the various courts Of Forestcrs have been taking much interest in their organizations the past few months and as result they are likely to make their coming fair one of the biggest yet given under their auspices. It is less than a months time before the Foresters' fail will be opened in city hall. On Wednesday evening February ,, it will start and will continue for the next three nights. Although it is only natural for arrangement committees to feel enthusiastic about the result of their efforts, the general committee which is supervising the coming affair are meeting with so much success they are confident the Foresters will more than make good on their event in February. The usual number or fakirs (the kind that will make things liyelv) will be on hand, and although they make a big noise, their barking will be interesting. The best of music has been engaged for dancing, and the dancers will find the fair a rather enioyable place. There is no doubt but what the Foresters intend to make it the fair of fairs.

JACQUES
VAUDEVILLE.

One doesn't often see such dainty, meritorious act in vaudeville as The Pianophiends," in which Gus Kleinecke and a company or eight musicians are appearing at the Jacques this week. The idea of the sketch is clever. The interior of a piano store is shown with several salesmen at the pianos. A party of girls come in shopping and several delightful singing and dancing num- bers follow. One of the catchy songs is sung by Miss Gladys Lockwood,who makes a hit at each performance. The piano numbers during which hve pianos are played at the same time makes striking musical effect. Gus Kleinecke is the leader of the Phiends and gets a warm welcome from his many friends. The supporting Dill is excellent. Miss Julie Ring & co in "The Wrong Room," has won much favor. The act is bright and up to date and abounds in sparkling conversation. Miss Ring has a part well suited to her talents and George Nichols as the old professor does an excellent bit of character work. Next week the headliner will be the. Za' zell and Vernon Company in the comic pantomime "The Elopement.

"A GOOD FELLOW" :"

"A Good Fellow" is the title of a new comedy by Mark E. Swan, which is underlined at Polls on Tuesday, January 14, matinee and night. This comedy has been on the road for only two seasons, but in that short time has won much favor in the territory in which it has been presented. The plot is farcical to the extreme, and laugh after laugh is the consequence. The play deals with the complication of two young people, who have been married secretly, and concealing the marriage from the aunt of Mrs Newlywed," furnishes abundant comedy that is appreciated by all. Extra precaution has been displayed by the managers in selecting the cast for the attraction, both as to indi- viduality and intelligence. This with the star, Miss Alice Williams, makes it an attraction of merit, Pop ular prices.

MORTON SOUNDS GOVERNOR.
Insurance Chiefs Want Changes In the
 Laws. but Huuhes Won't Help.

1uWct buh ''e6'Ss ''~'' ''~'T'
 Albany, N. r., Jan. 10.-Paul Morton president of the Equitable Life As surance society attempted to try out Governor Hughes on the proposition to amend the Armstrong insurance law, which was largely the work of MT. Hughes when insurance inqulsitor. Morton received no encouragement, nor did he get any direct expression or opinion. In his annual message the governor had advised extreme caution in making changes.
 The insurance chiefs want four changes. The present law limits the contingency reserve an insurance com pany may set aside out of profits to a point where a company within few years would be left, according to Pres ident Kingsley of the New York Life with a contingency reserve amounting to only ? per cent of the net values of it's outstanding policies. The com panies want this limit placed at pei cent. The governor is of the opiniou that no radical amendments to the law are called for.

SOLVES SECRET OF WIRELESS
Massachusetts Boy Says He Can Pro-
 feet Power Without Wires.

Spencer, Mass, Jan. 1O.-Harry M Grout a high school boy of this city, says he has discovered the secret of transmitting electric waves through the air without the aid of wires. He has been studying electricity for five years and has already become an ex- pert operator with wireless methods or communication. He has a wireless station of his own.
 He now lights dozen incandescent bulbs in different rooms in his house by merely pressing small lever in his room and projecting the electric waves. There are no connecting wires between these different lights and the machines which .he operates. Each light is merely connected with a small battery of it's own. Just how the cleo tric power which the hundred odd bat teries in the operating room produce IS made to travel through the air young Grout as yet refuses to disclose.
