and A. w. dollhouse will shortly cater
to their friends in the Jeffrey building,
which is under lease to them for a

AS an instance of what has been
accomplished in some states in raising
railroad valuations, it is well to show
just what the state of Washington has
done. In 1891 the railroads of WASH
ington were assessed for Sl2, Ola. 70S,
and now they are assessed for more
than $l00, 900, 900, an increase of nearly
five hundred per cent AT the same
time real property in the state has in
creased in value from 1896, 600, 900 to
$692, 900, 600, an increase OF less than
| three hundred per cent.

came near equaling Young's vote,
polling 263 to the latter's 28l.
On the other hand, A. M. Burd,
Democratic candidate for the assembly,
received hut lit votes in all, as com.
pared 10 Mr.. Dolf's total vote of 459,
which shows in part, the discrimination
used by the voters of the county when
they prepared the ballots.
To j. W. Sitton will devolve the task
OF huilding up a business like office

FllLON'S RAILROAD BUSINESS
Last Month Largest in History
Of Fallon Station. Much
Stock Coming In.

October was the biggest month in
,be history of the local railroad station.
The business for the month was more
ban three times as large as during
october of last year. In all 248 cars
If incoming freight were handled as
eoustrasted with 81 during the cores
nonding period of last year. Of the
,otal number of cars, more than one
half or l31 cars, to be exact, con-
tsined livestock shipped in for feeding
in this valley. During the month of
November about as many cars of live
stoek will have left their live freight,
iudging from present indications. In
addition to the livestock fhipped in
there is a surprisingly large amount of
mining and electrical equippage coming
in right along, as well as general
merchandise and supplies of all kinds.
The outgoing freight includes onions
and potatoes for the most part, and
these products are being shipped now
sdays at the rate of three to four cars
weekly. Station Agent T.. Yetter
and his three assistants are handling
this increased traffic with difficulty,
vet Mr.. Yetter manages to maintain
an even frame of mind and continues
to please the public with his accom-
modating ways.
Although the railroad traffic in and
out of this point is larger than ever
before, it is noteworthy that the con-
ditions are quite different from those
that existed during the boom periods
Of few years ago when big hulaboo-
loo was made about less than now
forms the basis for quiet and sane en-
deayor. 1t simply means thatapeetacu-
lar shouting has given way to quiet
and legitimate development, and that
both agriculture and mining in this
county are now conducted along safe,
conservative lines.

SECTION III.

Did you notice the remarkably ef-
fective work of the gumshoe campaign
manager? Now, really, boys, wasn't
it awful? Before the results were
counted Tuesday, the matter of con-
vincing this past master at intrigue
that he really had no place in the
great mems gallery would have been
about as feasible as serving lop cared
coyote with summons, while he was
on his way to dinner. Now, this gum
shoe manager has demonstrated that
for running rotten last in every race,
he is the candy kid. That's what this
hairpin is, for fact. Honest, do you
think he will go away back and sit
down and give the good people of this
county credit for thinking for them
selves, or will he continue to abrogate
unto himself the alleged right of
thinking for everybody? Well, let
us see.

The various successful candidates
have requested this paper to express
their appreciation of the manner in
which the electors of the county ten
dered their support. And well they
might, for the political issues in this
county have seemed to have been de-
termined very largely by men and
what they stood for in the minds of
the people. In one or two instances
undue prejudice, correlating around
circumstances over which defeated
candidates had no control, seems also to
have been the factor in bringing about
defeat. Summed up in very few
words, the voters of Churchill county
have signifed desire for new faces
around the offices of the county, and
for the most part these new faces will
be on deck on January lst.
