Mr.. BULLETIN MAN
Will YOU PLEASE
EXPLAIN MATTERS

The Rhyolite Bulletin is still harp
ing on the subject of county division,
and in an editorial that might have
been derived from the brain of a
devotee of the poppy juice, the paper
says Tonopah is fighting the propos-
ed movement because ''it might take
a little trade away from that burg. Z"
We beg pardon of the Bulletin,
and state that Tonopah is not afraid
of losing any trade from the south
ern country, because Tonopah has
never had any of that trade. This
city is not a trade center for the
south and never will be. There are
cities nearer Rhyolite and it's sur
rounding camps where the majority
of the trading is conducted, so we
think the writer of the article was
somewhat to the bad when he stated
that Tonopah is acting purely for
selfish motives when it opposes coun-
ty division.
Tonopah is acting in conjunction
with the wishes of nine-tenths of the
voters of Nye who heartily oppose
the subdivision, and who are acting
for the best interests of the county.
Probably two years hence there will
be more opportune time for the
making of another county, and then
the matter should be brought to the
attention of the voters before it is
presented to the state legislature
BY that time we will be out of debt
and as the southern part of Nye has
helped to make that debt it should
help to clear the incumberance.

who are interested in athletic fea-
lures are now taking an active inter
est in the game of basketball, and
since the contests here Saturday
night, when the team from the Ton
opah Basketball club gave an ex-
cellent demonstration of playing,
several new teams have been organ
lied. A team composed of ex-play-
ers and business men yesterday is

Basketball club, which was accepted.
an dthe contest will come off Satur-
day night at the Nevada theater. The
girls team of the Tonopah Basket
ball club will also meet the team of
the high school on that evening and
spectators can have the privilege of
witnessing two games for the price
of one. On the new team there are
several old-timers who were stars in
days gone by. There is Lem Plat,
for instance. Lem used to play at
Woodland when the game first came
out, and although somewhat rusty,
he thinks he can give the kids run
for their money. He will also have
on the team Paul Loskamp, who in
troduced the game to the inhabitants
of Philadelphia. And then there is
Jack Seward, who ought to prove a
star. The lineup of the team will
be: Plat and Seward, forwards; w.
w. Booth, Jr., center; Hurd and Los
kamp, guards.
The Tonopah Basketball club will
lineup with Davidson and Boggs,
forwards: Stotesbury, center; Kelly

their intention to secure all data pos
sible on the subject and also ascer-
tain if possible to what extent the
southern part of the county could
derive benefit from the proposed
plan. This committee was made a
permanent one and empowered to
take full charge of the matter and
keep in touch with the representa-
tives at Carson and aid them to the
best of their ability.
A suggestion was made to have
every business man and taxpayer in
this city and of the northern section
write to the delegation, personally
expressing their views on the sub
ject, as from the different views
stated valuable information could be
secured in making the fight.
Clay Tallman, who will introduce
the bill on the segregation of the
county, ives severely censured as the
plan was not a party issue and he
was elected to the senate by the
votes from the northern part of the
county. When in this city, several
days before the legislature conven-
ed he is said to have remarked that
the people of Rhyolite demanded
that he introduce the bill, and he
would do so, even if he was acting
contrary to the wishes of the people
of the rest of the county
The meeting rendered a vote OF
thanks to Walter D. Cole and c. H.
Mcintosh for the work done by these
gentlemen in securing data on the
movement. T. w. Kendall was also
extended vote of thanks for his
kindness in donating the room for
the use of the citizens.

Out of the net profits on hand, the

$4,000. and a like amount added
to its ! surplus. The shareholders
were we'll pleased over the splendid
statement of condition, and the bust
neSs enjoyed by this large bank. Here
1t is noteworthy to add that the cash
reserve OF the Nixon National bank
is in splendid ratio to its depositors
liability, and is equal and in some
cases, exceeds some of the best banks
in the country.
Another special feature trait the
shareholders and depositors can well
be pl 'ud of. is the fact that this
bank, has, in good, actual, sound, ac-
tive assets nearly two dollars for
every dollar of depositors' liability
which is equal, and in many cases
greater, than any other bank be-
