TREASURES Of
NEVADA STATE
UNDEYEIOPED RESOURCES OF
SAGEBRUSH STATE INCLUDE
MILLIONS OF FERTILE LANDS
THAT ONLY AWAIT WATER.

In a recent issue of the Los Angeles
Mining Review appeared an article or
Nevada by James w. Abbott of Pr
oche that is worthy of reproduction
and perusal. The latter part OF the
article is as follows:
I'm attempting to forecast the
future of Nevada the prime factor of
progress is the railroads. The South
ern Pacific runs east and west through
the state. Like the busy bee, that
company gathers honey all the day
from every opening flower The
more flowers the more honey. The
policy of the Southern Pacific in de-
%veloping new business Is quite gen.
orally understood. Their diagonal
line through the state to southern
California is nearly finished.
The Western Pacific has just been
opened. 1t is an epoch in railroad
ing, a transcontinental line built
right the first time. 1t is the last
word in sagacious business foresight
and engineering science applied to
railroad location and construction. 1t
is the Jim Hill method with latest
improvements. The four cardinal
principals are: First, grade; second
local traffic, third, mileage; fourth,
permanence. 1t was conceived and
brought forth in the brains of rail-
road men 1t even crosses the Sierras
without the obsession of the snow
shed and the snowdrift. Those In
terested in mushrooms will delight to
see its traffic grow.
This road also cuts the state
from east to west. 1t will also OPP
crate over a composite diagonal, al
ready financed, through Ely and
Goldfield TO Los Angeles. The state
is dotted with old camps returned to
life and new ones in the making. Re-
Gently a leaser in one of these took
out $780, 900 worth of gold ore in
seven days. Ever since the panic of
1907 nor finds of phenomenal
magnitude have been made in Ne
vada than in the rest of the United
States.
Ely, the old-young copper camp,
is already challenging Butte and
Bingham and Bisbee for the champ
ionship. Before the Couer d'Alene
mines were opened two Nevada camps
produced as much lead as Missouri,
Illinois and Iowa combined. Only
development is needed to make Ne
vada first in zinc. Zinc and lead go
together. Millions upon millions of
acres. fertile as the valley of the Nile,
await mans enterprise TO start them
into life with water. The undeyelop-
ed regions of the west are contract
ing rapidly. Nevada offers allure
ments unsurpassed. The Southern
Pacific and Western Pacific are in
charge of past masters in advertising.
They understand the Importance of
local development to their traffic and
they will not leave Nevada under a
bushe1."

RUMORS OF COLE-RYAN
ENTERING PIOCHE DISTRICT

For a number of months there
have been rumor of large deals
pending for a big slice of mineraliz-
ed ground of Phoebe. During this
time 1t is known that A. II. Godbe,
n OF the prime movers OF the dis
trict, has been in New York confer
ring with large interests in the camp.
AS a result of his efforts. 1t has been
repeatedly reported that capitalists
were considering propositions of pro-
viding a custom reduction plant close
to Phoebe, and hat there was some
likelihood of a smelter being built to
treat Phoebe ores. While none OF
these rumors could be confirmed, II
has been known that an effort was
made to interest people who had the
means to give the mines an oppor-
tunity to show the true worth of the
ore bearing bodies.
At various times since the com
pletion of the railroad connection be
tween Phoebe and Callente mining
engineers who were the representa-
tives OF big mining men, have mad
exhaustive examinations of seyera
of the mines. Nothing has beef
learned of their views on the posi-
blities Of the camp. Just a few day
ago 1t was learned that in con
sequence of these examinations eel

tain interests connected with the In
ternational Smelling plant were con-
templating taking oyer a large area
of Phoebe ground.
While nothing official has been
given out, it is reported from the
east that the Neyada-Utah holdings
have been eorraled by one who is
closely allied with Cole-Ryan. The
natural inference from this state
ment is that they are to take over
some of this ground in order to get
ores for the new Tooele furnaces, and
further on this move will be awaited
with no little interest by the mining
men of this state who are heavily
interested in mines of Phoebe.

MONUMENT To OLD
BLACK NANNY

GALVESTON, Tex, May A.
The organization of Texas citizens
having charge of the movement to
erect monument to the "old black
nanny of the south" has decided
to make it national tribute. This
was determined today because of
pleas from prominent men all over
the country.
1t has practically been decided to
raise the fund by public subscrip-
ton and to erect the monument, of
marble, in Washington. 1t was Or
iginally planned to erect it in Gal
weston with funds subscribed by
citizens of Texas.
1t is contemplated to raise about
100000, and perhaps limit indi-
vidual subscriptions to 81, although
offers have been made by men to
contribute $500 to $1,000 each to
such fund.
T. j. Groce, president of the Gal
weston National bank, Is chairman
of the organization. Col. w. L.
Moody. banker and cotton broker,
and other leading citizens of Texas
are identified with the movement.
Artists are sending in designs for
figures for the monument.
1t is planned to elect a Joint COM
mittee, composed of representative
men from at least every southern
state, to have charge of the project.

rural problems, which are bound to
come to them. AS they go down the
corn row under the June sun they will
be conscious of more than sun, corn

life processes in the plant and soil. This
will give them a satisfaction and pleas

it is a big bound in the right direction.

new RULING in VOGUE
Pestoffice Department Order Permits
Mail Carriers to Work Forty
Eight Hours a Week.

Beginning last Tuesday a new rul-
ing went into effect at the local post
Office whereby carriers viii work
total of forty eight hours each week
instead of eight hours each day of six
days. The ruling also provides that
the postmaster shall go over the routes
with the carriers and where it is
found that the men are being over
taxed with work, the routes shall be
SO arranged that the duties shall be
more evenly divided. The new rul-
ing will be particularly pleasing to
the men having the outlying districts
and 1t will result in better mail facili-
ties for the patrons along the routes.
On the face of the first part of the
ruling it would seem that the men
are working under the same condi-
tions as formerly. This is not the
case, however. Under the old ruling
a carrier could not work more than
eight hours on any one day. II he
completed his duties in less time he
was at liberty to go home. The new
ruling provides that if carrier can
distribute his mail in less than eight

The work, 1t is understood, will be

In apples, potatoes and onions
Yakima has the best exhibit at the

James, secretary of the Commercial
club, in a letter to his secretary here.
Writing to Miss McPhee Mr.. James
says that while he does not claim the
exhibit of Yakima to be the largest
he does think it Is the best. The
show, he says is attracting a daily
average of 1000 spectators and is
immensely popular. Mr.. James and
Mr.. Morgan, his assistant, are hav-
ing a strenuous time and are hoarse
at night and scarcely able to talk.
Mr.. James has been surprised at the
number OF people who have spoken
with him who have either been at
Yakima or who have friends here. In
addition he has met a large number
of Yakima or former Yakima people.
Among those he mentions are Messr5

there are many others. DR.. James

Movement on Foot to Raise the
Salaries of the Various Sup

County School Superintendent
Busch of Yakima county now receives
as large a salary as any school super
intendent in the state but will prob
ably receive more if he remains in
office. This is the statement of State
Superintendent of Education Dewey
at Spokane in an address at the 31st
annual session of the Spokane County
Teachers institute. Mr.. Dewey says
that every effort will be made at the
coming term of the legislature to put
through a bill for raising the salaries
of county school superintendent OF
the state. County superintendent
are now paid from $500 to $4,000 an
nually, Skamania county representing
the lowest figure and Yakima, King
Pierce and Spokane and Stevens
counties the largest, The average
for the state is $1186. Mr.. Dewey
further says:
"Other matters which will be taken
up are the terms for holding office
and the manner of selection. We
think that the county superintendent
ought to be placed in office for an in
definie term, instead of for two years;
also that they should be selected by
the board of education instead of by
the ballot of the people. following the
same plan pursued in the cities"
