tiers of excitement are located, the
exact distance from Reno and how
they are reached. Notwithstanding
the fact that thousands are fiocking
to these three particular camps, re-
ports of which are filling the public

Nevada Best
in Growing
Sheep

There has been stopping in Nevada
the last week one of the mast prom
inent stockmen in the United States
and particularly the far west, who
besides his own individual interests
in the sheep and cattle industry is the
sole representative In these western
states of the largest wool buying
concern in America, ]. Koshland &
Co. of Boston, Mass, who have
handled nearly 100,000,000 pounds
of wool during the past five years.
This man is George w. Callahan of
Amadee, Cal. who started in the
sheep business when he was only Z
years of age, or over 35 years ago.
In view of the fact that Nevada is
not excelled by any other state in
the union in sheep and cattle rails
ing, it furnishing the best mutton
and beef in the United States. a
talk with this gentleman who is a
recognized authority upon this great
industry is of interest.
Last year Mr.. Callahan bought
over 100000 pounds of WOOL the
same the previous year. This year
Nevada will have approximately s.
100000 pounds of wool, nearly all
of it going to Boston. Shearing has
just begun the past week, and a
large quantity and nice cut of wool
is looked for this season. In refer
ence to these vast industries, the
sheep man has this to say, which is
accepted as a careful and reliable
statement of existing conditions past
and present:
The sheep industry is among the
greatest stock industries in this
state of Nevada. Here 1t has always
been on the increase, practically now
reaching its limit on sheep. The
vast amount of desert lands in Ne
vada where sheep can range In win
ter, is Letter and greater than In any
other state. There are about 1,000,-
900 sheep in this state today, as near
as any one can possibly estimate.
They are mostly in Humboldt, Elko
and White Pine counties. Williams
Brothers have in these counties about
$4,000 head of old sheep, and will
have during this summer 10000 20
5000 lambs. John Taylor, who is
the largest single handed sheep man
in Nevada, has about $4,000 at his
ranch at Rye Patch, New. w. N Nc
Gill of Ely has large flocks. Over
the state line in California Henry
Miller has close to 10000 head of
sheep today, and has been known to
have at one single time over 200, 900
in Fresno county. He Is also the
biggest cattle man, now" Continu-
ing his interesting information Mr..
Callahan said: Nevada produces the
largest and best mutton and lambs In
the shortest period of time of any
state in the union. As proof of this
statement | can declare that | have
taken at one time from a band of
400 April lamps, total of 1,20S
lambs on the second of July, that
averaged when dressed 80 pounds.
This season SO far is remarkable.
The mild winter has made possible
an abundance of dry feed over the
ranges. with the result, which is a
source of qualification to all stock
men, that all the stock start this
spring in excellent condition"

1t so happens that by reason of the
allotment Of the election of members Of
the Board of Education. but three
wards elect members Of that Board
this year. These are Wards 5, 6
and Z. There is little doubt that
Ward will be carried by the Repub-

6 this year will fall into the Repub-
lican column. In such an event the
Republicans will control the Board Of
Education and a general renovation

1t has never been the policy OF the
Republicans of the City of Waterville
to make changes in the teaching force
or to create any extensive changes in

appears to be decided necessity for
changes in administrative policy which

best possible result for the amount of

CASE MOL PRESSED.
Or. Stackpole of Dover, N. r., VIII ss-
cape Trial in Ryan Case.

Dover. \. H., Feb. 19.-The state
prosecution of DR.. Henry II. Stackpoie
of this city on an Indictment charging
criminal operation upon Katherine
Ryan of Lowell, Mass, which was Al
legged to have caused her death on Aug.
-, at the physicians home. here, is
abandoned by an order from Attorney
General Edward G. Eastman. today.
The words mol pressed We're entered
today against the case in the official
docket and DR.. Stackpole is released
from the bonds Of $4,000 in which he
was being held for trial.
The reason for the states negative
action In DR.. Stackpole's case is stated
TO be the failure in 4 trial last Decem-
Der, to convict Elmer f. Ryan of
Fttchburg, Mass, as an accessory be-
fore the fact. 1t was the states choice
to try Ryan first rather than the prin-
cipal because it was felt that in cer-
tain letters and other evidence the
State had stronger case against him
than the physician.
The acquittal of Ryan is declared to
have subtracted strength from the case
against DR.. Stackpole and hence the
decision to drop it.
