NOTED CEOLOCiST
dies AT SEATTLE

Word has reached Winnemucca of
the death of Robert Forester,th noted
mineralogist and geologist, which oc-
Cured at Seattle last Thursday, the
22d. Mr.. Forester had just returned
from a trip to the Panama canal,
where he went as the guest of Presi-
dent Taft.
Deceased was known in Winpemuc-
ca, having been here twice during the
present year, in the interest of the
Western Pacific. On the occasion of
his first visit, early in the summer, Mr..
Forester visited Sulphur and made an
examination of oil possibilities there,
having been employed for the purpose
by the Western Pacific. At the
time of his last visit in September,
the Silver State of the Goth of that
month, under the heading "W. p.
May Build Branch Lines contained
the following:
"For some time past, in fact since
the Western Paciffc built through
Winnemucca, speculation has been
rife as to whether the road intended
building any feeders in Nevada.
"Robert Forester, the company's en-
gineer, who spent several weeks in
Humboldt county during the summer,
ostensibly as a geologist looking over
the formation at the Sulphur oil fields,
is again in town, and it is now said
he is selecting rotes for branch lines.
Just where the proposed feeders in this
county will run, if decided upon, is
not known except to Mr.. Forester and
the Western Pacific officials, and they
will not take the public into their
confidence at this time. However, it
is considered not improbable that a
line will be run to Paradise and Ma
tional in tn enear future

WISH ALL THE CREDIT

In its review of the work accom-
plished at the recent term of the crimi-

District Attorney Callahan success,

CHILDREN ENJOY
CHRISTMAS Trees

The Christmas exercises and tree at
the Methodist Episcopal church were
enjoyed by the large congregation that
filed the house. Songs and recitations,
together with connected exercise of
songs and recitations, entitled GA
Journey to Christmas Land, by the
Sunday school scholars composed the
program A large Christmas tree, light
ed by nine electric lights, in col
ors of red, white and blue, and load
ed with beautiful dolls and other pres
ents, was the special delight of the
many little folks present. At the
close old Santa Claus appeared and
helped to distribute the treat of candy,
oranges and gifts, which had been pro-
vided by the generous donations of the
parents and business men of the town.
The only regret of those in charge is
that they under estimated little, and
that the candy packages and oranges
gave out before some of the children
present were served. 1t was the pur-
pose to provide for all the children
that might be in attendance.

to convert the entire nation. This
work is still in process. At about the
time La Toilette was making the VOL
verene railroads and regulars jump

causing the stand patterS to see red
with his Iowa idea. The careers Of
these two progressive leaders have
many features in common. Both had
to fight the machine in their own
states, both were elected to the gov
ernorship for three terms, and both
while serving as governor were ele-
waited to the United States senate.
Both are effective speakers, and both
deal with facts rather than figures OF
speech. The difference in their per-
sonaI appearance and manners, how
ever, Is as striking as the resemblance
In their careers. Both are fighters,
but Cummins is courtly and has gained

he is an honest man who by some mis-

members do not know what to make
of him. He knows what he would
