FROM RAY ID KELVIN
 - Progress Of Work on The COnpany's Railroad IS SLIGHTLY DELAYEDI
SLIGHTLY DELAYED
Good Time Will Be Made From Now to Completion of Line Mining Machin- cry Received in Large Volume.

Kelvin, Aug 31.-(SpeciaI Corre- spondence of The Republican )-The Ray company's new road to Ray is fast assuming the proportions of a full-fledged railroad A train load of ties and steel arrived yesterday. and large. gang of men were put to7 work this morning laying track. The work will be rushed as fast as possible. It was at first thought the road would be put through in three mnnths, but owing to the company's inability to get teamsters and lab- orers during the hot weather it was soon seen that it would take con- siderably longer than was at first anticipated Several horses on the grade last week became overloaded and died. The weather man is much cooler and the work will progress more rapidly. The Ray Central com pany IS making extensive preparations ln~the way of hiring a larger force of men. and buying a large quantity of heavy mining machinery with which the work of development will be car Tied on with renewed vigor this fall A large compressor, weighing 22 2.OOO pounds and a hoist and other ma chinery were received the past week. The company hired a twelve mule team from Globe to haul the large compressor which was very bulky and unhandy. but with the expert freighters, it was unloaded from the car. and put in the wagon in an hour.
 The Ray Central is making some decided improvements in and around their offices at Ray.
 The Staff house of the Ray Consol- dated will undergo a general over hauling, and receive a fresh coat of

We Drive Prosperity From Us.

All our limitations are in our mind,
the supply is around US, waiting in vast
abundance. We take little because we
demand little, because we are afraid to
take the much Of our inheritance
the abundance that is our birthright,
writes orison SWEET Marden in Success
Magazine. We starve ourselves In the
midst OF plenty. because OF our strang-
ling thought. The opulcnt life stands
ready TO take US into its completeness,
but our ignorance cuts US or. Hence
the life abundant, opulenee unlimited,
the river Of plenty flows past our doors
and we starve on the very shores Of the
stream which carries infinite supply.
1t is not In our nature that we are
paupcrs, but In our own mean, stingy
appreciation OF ourselves and our pow
crs. The idea that riches are possible
only TO those who have superior advnnt-
ages, more ability, TO those who have
been favored by fate. Is false and viei'

The newspapers, that have criticized
President Roosevelt for his attack upon
the parties who have made charges OF
ros kedness against government Of
fici:.ls in the matter of the purchase OF
the Panama canal, seem to have con-
sid ed but one side of the case. Pres.
idest Roosevelt's action in handling
the. e parties without gloves was an ac-
tior that was much needed and no
dou 1 will result in much good. I'm
der he plea of liberty Of the press, un-
principled newspaper men, for political
or ii-ancial gain. have year after year
bee committing outrages upon individ'
uals and the public in general by pub
Iish " what they either knew to be
fal. xor bsd no good reason for believ-
ing 70 be true and this contemplate
practice has been carried to such an ex-
treme that it had become necessary
that the severest rebuke possible should
be administered to the paper men who
insist upon engaging in it. No more
severe rebuke could have been given
this unprincipled and pernicious prac-
tice than that given by President Roose-
welt. No ordinary rebuke would even
check the practice. Damage and libel
suits have been no terror to those who
engaged in it. A rebuke must come
from source that would cause not on
ly the offenders but also the general
public to sit up and take notice. Pres
ident Roosevelt has seen the need for
action along this line and. in this case
as in all others. he has refused to be
bound by precedent but proceeded to
act and act vigorously, regardless of
what the critics might say about his
action lowering the dignity Of his office.
President Rooseveit's severe rebuke Of
the newspaper liar will do more to give
US cleaner campaigns than any rebuke
that has ever been administered TO
those who give us dirty campaigns.

Wedding Anniversary.

Away back in the sunfower state
some twenty-five years ago, Rev. J..
F. Price, the local M. E. pastor took
unto himself blushing bride and the
careers indissclubly linked together for
better or for worse on that occasion
have proven of inestimabe benefit to
their fellow men. The many friends
of Reverend and Mrs. j. F. Price cele-
brated the silver wedding anniversary
Monday evening at the M. E. church
and the evening spent together must
go on record as one enjoyable in every
respect.
Rev. G. w. Black performed the cere.
mony under wedding bell, while a
profusion of decorations about the interi.
or of the church were very handsome.
The ceremony was followed by an invo.
cation and talk by Rev. A. R. Merritt.
Refreshments were part of the even
ing's program as was jollity that comes
from friendly feeling.
Rev. and Mrs. Price were the recipi-
ents of a number of very handsome
presents from friends, as token of
their esteem and regard for the good
work they have done locally during
their four years ministrations in this
place.

WILL CLEAR VERPLANK TITLE
L. E. c. Hinckley viii Soon
Commence Suit to Clear the
Title of His Tract.

We have had our attention called tc
the real status of the Verplank ad-
dition title, which formed the subject
for a recent article in this paper. Nh.
L. E. c. Hinckley, very enterprising
citizen, who owns the principal portion
of the tract, writes that he will short
ly commence an action in the Dis
trict Court to quiet title. Inasmuch as
undisputed possession has been had for
much longer than the statutory re-
qurement and the further fact that
every evidence, save slight error on
the county recorders deed books show
the title to be vested regularly in Mr.
Verplank, who in turn assigned by deed
his interest in the tract owned by Mr..
Hinekley, the securing of court de-
cree annulling that part of the county
records wherein the mistake occurred
will be merely formaiity.
Mr.. Hinckley is an enterprising gentle
man. His ownership of the Verplank
tract has resulted in much good t. Fal-
Ion, and it is far from our purpose to
publish anything that would in the re-
hottest way cast shadow upon his prop
erty. His title is good now. When it
energies from the district court, it will

Judge Downer An Irrigationist.

Judge S. 3. Downer of Reno, ar
rived in Fallon Monday and spent two
days following In attendance upon the
district court, where he appeared on
behalf of K. l.. Douglass in The case of
douglass VS. Cano x Day.
Judge Downer is enthusiastic over
the prospects of this country. He was
formerly resident of Greedy, Colorado,
and passed through the early irrigating
period OF that section. He saw hordes
Of people sacrifice everything they had
in order to get away from that country,
abandoning land that subsequently at
tanned uniform value of around hun
dred per acre. The Greedy country re-
quired eight or ten years to come into
its own; this country will not require
half this time.

HIGH SCHOOL COMMENCEMENT
The County High School Affairs
Are Advancing Rapidly.
Class Graduates.

The graduating exercises of the
Churchill County High School occurred
Friday evening at which time Gel Coe
the first student to graduate the three
years course of our high school re-
ceived his diploma from Miss Grace L..
Moon, the school principal who ten
dered the diploma following a nice
speech in which she briefly outlined the
work done during her incumbancy as
principal, which dates back to the time
Of the organization Of the high school
two years ago. Since that time the
school has made rapid advances and
although two years ago scarce half a
dozen scholars presented themselves
for high school advantages, it is ex-
pected that next fall will witness the
enrolment of forty or more students
qualified to do high school work.
Although there We're no sweet girl
graduates this year, the girls will in
the future play prominent part in the
graduating exercises. They We're in
the predominance this year as girls
usually will be in educational affairs,
but they were confined to the first and
second year classes. The senior class
of 1910 will Of course be comprised Of
majority of girls.

A. d. Drumm, the contractor, is build

The results that are being obtained by
him form the best possible refutation

AS soon as Mr.. Drumm has completed
