around Tor liter ones. They have
been doing pretty well for se~eral

to improve what they already have"
The train slowed down at Abilene.
One Of the party, the writer, got off.
He was looking for evidence Of the
Kansas farmers prosperity. He
wished to see for himself whence
came the money to these men who
are now comfortable" and In many
cases rich, who only few years ago
we're fighting the wolf from the door,
battling with adversely, but holding

Just had to come out right.
Abilene is in Dickinson county.
The conditions in this and adjacent
counties may be taken as an index
of the prosperity Of the north central
part Of the state.
The president Of the Abilene Nat
ionaI Bank IL q. A. Rogers. Mr..
Rogers has been engaged in the bank
ing business in Dickinson county for
twenty-nine years. 1t is said that
he is more intimately acquainted
with the financial secrets Of the peo-
pie Of that part of the state than
any other man. 1t was to him that
the writer went first.
"You want to learn something OF
the prosperity of our people?" said
Mr.. Rogers. There is a little sign
Of 1t. Look at it,"
He pointed to hitching cnain'
There were telnered sleek fat horses
harnessed to rubber tired buggies

viceable vehicles, while near by stood
dozen or so motor cars.

Treasurer Morse has received
static levy and finds that this county
will have to pay nearly $4,000 more
in state taxes than last year. The
large appropriations and other things
seem to heap it rather high.
In 1908 the valuation was $685.

mills. raising s34,47O.12.
This year the valuation is $780,

The increase in state taxes for
Dickinson is thus $14,7OS.6S.

F|C|ALS Of
STATE ARRIVE
Haley and Auditor Come
With Enthusiasm From
Abroad About the Camp

State Bullion Tax Collector James
F. Haley arrived in the district last
night accompanied by State Auditor
w. b. Ligon. Both are bulls on the
present and the future of the state
and both share the general belief
that Ely is the greatest camp in Ne
vada and destined to be the biggest
copper producer in the world.
MY report for the quarter ending
September 30," said Mr.. Haley, last
night, Showed the mineral output
for the county to have been $780,
332.32. an increase of .s551,158.14
over that of the first three months.
For the same time the increase of
tonnage was 43.2. exceeding the COM
bined tonnage of the rest of the state.
"The approximate output for
day was $500 tons, but this, / un-
derstand, was 1000 tons less than
the daily output of the Nevada Con-
solidated. The discrepancy is prob
ably accounted for by the fact that
the reduction plant was not running
to its full capacity, for since then
another unit has been added to the
concentrator and another reverber-
atory to the smelter. The growth of
the district has been little short of
The White Pine news. [volume] (Ely, Nev.) 1906-1910, 1909-11-20

wonderful, in my opinion, and devel-
opment is only in it's infancy. From
my experience in the camps of Ne
vada l look to see another Goldfield
here in the way OF excitement next
year. There will be all the sensa-
tional features of that great camp,
and there will be more money taken
out, and the fact that this is copper
instead of gold means permanency
which will last for ages.
"On the outside one hears almost
nothing but Ely, if I make one lit
tie exception in favor of Bannock,
which is again coming to the front.
Ely is the big thing in the state, and
it seems to be the big thing all over
the United States. The great mine
here and the fact that
it is the lowest cost porphyry camp
in the world, combine to appeal to
all copper investors and spectators,
and it's securities and properties are
in great demand"

NAIL BIG SMUGGLING PLOT.
Arrests Follow Two Years Work by
Secret Service Men.

GALVESTON, Tex, Nov. 18.-Sev-
en- men, charged with smuggling mer-
chandise into the United States, were
arrested in Corpus Christi Bay today
by Secret Service operatives, who de-
clare they have been after this band
for nearly two years. Two schooners
were also taken. 1t is said that
these men have been engaged in the
business for three or four years. and
that at low estimate they have
smuggled goods valued at more than
$1,000,000 within the past IS
months, upon which the government
has been cheated out of many thous-
and dollars in duty.
While large percentage of the
stuff, such as sugar, coffee, tobacco
and liquors, has been smuggled in
from Mexico, the detectives discov-
cred that some steamship officers are
implicated, and that imported goods
have been transferred from ocean
ging vessels to the smugglers' craft
before the vessels reached port for
inspection by customs officers.

MAKE YOUR CONTRIBUTION
in AID OF CHERRY DESTITUTE
DO IT TODAY-.THE NEED IS THAT OF THE HOUR

Aid is pouring in to the distressed
of Cherry from all over the country
the heart of the great American peo-
pie throbbhg in sympathy with the
afflicted ones of the awful coal mine
horror. The dispatches state that as
sistance began flowing into the faith
erless and helpless of the little min
ing district before the need of it was
actually realized at home
And Ely is not going to be behind
any other American city in extending
the righ hand-both hands-to the
aid of the afflicted. The cries of
distress from the widowed mothers
and their little ones have reached
us here and money is being raised
to swell the fund going into Cherry.
Let everybody give as much as ne
can afford. 1t Will never be missed
and may do a great deal of good to
those suffering families who, plunged
into destitution in one awful mo-
ment, have no way of helping them
selves.
At the Northern hotel and at the
Veteran saloon, in Ely, and the Cop
per National bank in East Ely, they
are receiving contributions to the
noble cause. Today arrangements
will be made whereby others vii
take, part in the gathering of the
funds. At the Veteran they are TAX
ing in the subscriptions of dollars,
each subscription being limited to a
dollar, ana the doAars are piling up.
TEX" Rickard has 500 subscrib-
ed, and he has not had the time to
devote to the work in hand. He
leaves this morning for the east, but
the good work will go on, other SYM
pathetic citizens taking it up. The
work should be hurried, so that early
in the week the money may be for
warded to the sufferers.
Tonight is Saturday night. 1t is
the holiday night of the week and
most men have some money to spend.
Let us put mite of our pleasure
money into the fund. It will make
us feel better and make the night
the more enjoyable in the reflection
tnat we have performed a good work.
The people of Cherry need every
cent they can get; let us give them
every cent we can spare.
You can leave your subscriptions

an, at Herrick-Kerin Investment

TAKE
CONTROL. IN.
NICARAGUA
Word Expected Today Will
Determine --Taft'S War
Spirit lJp--Cuts Minister

WASHINGTON, Nov. 19.-The
State Department has heard nothing
from any Nicaraguan quarter since
yesterday. The warships despatched
to Nicaraguan ports will likely arrive
at their destination early tomorrow
morning and it is not improbable
that reports will be received tomOr-
row. = ss8 s
today q note demanding an explana-
tiOn from the Zelaya government of
the execution of Cannon and Grace,
the two Americans.
1t was admitted at the legation
that a report Of the incident had
been received from Zelaya. It is
said the revolutionists are conduct
ing their movement against the Ze-
laya ministry in strictly modern fash
ion in comparison with the methods
of Zelaya, who is declared to have vio-
lated many of the established rules
of civilized warfare.
Reports of rapine and extreme
cruelties carried on by the Zelaya
troops are prevalent here, but there
is no official confirmation of this as
yet. 1t Is expected that the sub
s1ect will be touched upon in the re-
ports expected tomorrow from the
warships. 1t is not known what bear
ing confirmation of the rumors might
have, but it has been broadly hinted
that if conditions are as deplorable
as rumored Intervention in a prac-
tical way may be instantly ordered
as strictly necessary proceeding in
behalf of humanity.
