Cherry Creek Mill Closed Down

Ely Expositor: Operations at the
Star mill of the Glasgow & Western
Exploration Company at Cherry Creek
suddenly ceased last Friday when or.
ders were received by telegraph to shut
down the mill at once. Why the order
was given or how long the mill will re-
main idle is unknown at present nor can
anyone figure out the reason. About
20 men were employed in and around
the mill who were thrown out,
but about half Of them, it is reported.
found work in the mine where opera
tons will be continued. The shut
down cannot be on account OF lack OF
ore, though it may be because the grade
of ore now being mined is high enough
to be shipped to the smelter as
economically as to treat 1t in the mill at
the mine.

ElkO County Leads
In Sheep Industry

At the regular meeting of the State
Board of Sheep Commissioners held
recently, some facts were presented
that show the standing of Nevada az a
sheep.raising section The Elko Free
Press. in looking over the situation, puts
forth the following claim:
Elko County is the most important
county in the State, there being more
sheep grazed in this county alone
than in all the remaining counties Of
the State, it being estimated that over
1000, 600 head Craze here annu.
ally. AS soon as Winter approaches
most of the big bands are started for
the south, grazing az they go, and are
wintered on the deserts, where the fall Of
snow is light. When the Spring days
appear, huge bands from 5000 to 10. 900.
pass almost daily on through q town
ON their way to the northern grazing
grounds. When it is known that Elko
County has over 1000, 600 acres. it can
be seen how 80 many head a be fatten-
ed for market on our ranges.

POPULATION OF NEVADA
Census Returns Show State Has
Gained Over SO Per Cent
In Ten Years

Washington, Dec. 3.-The population
of Nevada was given out by the census
bureau to-day as s1,s75. This is an in.
crease Of 80. $40 or 1914 per cent over Az.
1886 in 1900. when the population show
ed q decrease of 34o6, or 7.5 per cent
from that of 1890.
Population Of Nevada Counties:
Ormsby. 30S9; Washoe, 17,434; Church
i'll, 2s11; CLARK, 1921 Douglas. 1895;
Elko. Sl33; Esmeralda, 1896; Eureka.
1880; Humboldt. 6SI5; Lander, 1886;
Lincoln. 34s9; Lyon. 1868; Nye, 1918;
Storey, 3045; White Pine, 7441.
United States Gains 20 Per Cent
The population of the United States
should be 81, 1893, 400, if the rate of in
crease shown by States on which COM
plete returns have been received and
tabulated by the census offices is
maintained.
Counting New Mexico and Arizona
for present purposes as States, the full
returns of the enumeration have been
tabulated for 33 out of the 40. and the
District Of Columbia. They show a
grand total of 81 1886, ITS. as against
55, 299, $3.50 for the same area in 1900.
This is a gain OF 20 per cen over the
70. 1914. 575 indicated by the census of
1900. A corresponding increase for the
10 remaining States would bring the
figure for the entire country up to the
number stated.
The States not yet announced are:
Arkansas, Georgia, Kentucky, Louis
lana, Mississippi, Montana. New Jer-
sey, North Dakota, North Carolina,
South Carolina, South Dakota, Texas.
Utah. Washington, Wisconsin and
Wyoming.
or these it is expected that Texas and
Washington will show very large in
creases.
Georgia, New Jersey, Montana. Utah,
Wyoming and the Dakotas will go be-.
yond the average, so hat there is little
doubt that the exact grand total will be
even more than the present tabulation
indicates.
1t would not be surprising if the ag-
gregate would be almost 81, 800. 900.
which is a million aud a half more than
has been generally estimated.
The aggregate increase in the 33
grand divisions accounted for is H.
O55, 542. Oklahoma with 1901 per cent
and Idaho with 101. 3 per cent. are the
only States whose increase has run over
100 per cent. and Iowa is the only State
which has shown a decrease.
Population of Three States
Population statistics of the 18th
census were issued to-day for the follow
ing States:
Colorado, 10000. an increase of $780,
324.o 4S 0 per cen over 500. 700 in 1900.
when the increase over 1890 was 49,
502, or 30.9 per cent.
Idaho, 1926. 594. an increase of 1853. 1929,
or 10l.3 per cent over 161 ,772 in 1900.
when the increase over 1890 was n,
1856, or Gle per cent.
Oregon, 672, 765, an increase of $780,
229. or 62.7 FER cent over Alb ,536 in 1900,
when the increase over 1890 was 90, 769,
or 81 8 per oent.

DEATH
Miners Life Saved by
Skip Tender

M. Spremo a, miner while at work on
the 3l00 level in the Kennedy mine, met
with an accident last Tuesday evening
that came near costing him his life.
The miner was sclearing rock into a
chute when he accidentally slipped in
to the chute, and mass of loose rock
slid in on top of him almost complete
ly covering him. The skip-tender
Charles Cook, is given credit for saw
ing the victims life. He hurriedly
opened the shute trap door, allowing
the unfortunate man and the mass of
rock to slide into the skip, and then
helped him out safely into the drift.
DR.. Gall was called, and attended the
victim, who was mass of bruises and
cuts from his head tc his heels.

Gently for the benefit of the Episcopal

concern whether he has or has not en-
ployed solicitors, windy or other
wise to boost his business, nor whether
he keeps one man or twenty men busy
doing nothing but Job printing. The
Dispatch is at liberty to employ skilled
or unskilled labor, and pay "white

suits him, or the democratic clique con
trolling him. Such questions are
foreign to the issues raised. The vital
point involved is that "'silly Willie

Candidate for Sheriff

George Lucot, the blacksmith of Jack
son, announces in this issue that he is
a candidate for the democratic nomna-
tion for sheriff. There had been
rumors for the past two weeks, that he
would be likely to complete with the
present incumbent of u. S. Gregory,
for the nomination, being urged ts this
course by many influential members for
his party. He is strongly of the
opinion that he can win out, and is de-
termined to do all in his power to do
so. This move has seriously discon-
certed the machine element of the party,
but nevertheless it has the substantial
backing of the rank and file. Against
Lucots qualifications for the office moth
ing can be urged, and we do not believe
any other aspirant named has any ad-
vantage over him in this respect

RATIO MARRIED
Miss Stella MCGary Weds
Popular Liveryman

Miss Stella McGary and Joseph Ratio,
too of Jackson's most popular young
people left for Oakland last Tuesday
morning to be married.
The ceremony was performed Thurs
day, and the bride and groom started
their honeymoon which will last about
two weeks.
Mrs Ratio is the daughter of Mr. and
Mrs Matthew McGary, proprietors of the
large dry goods store of that name in
Jackson, and Mr. Ratio is a member OF
the livery firm of Green & Ratio.
Preparations have been made by both
parties for some time past, for the COM
ing event that would make them man
and wife, and a home comletely fur
nished was fixed up exactly to their own
taste, before they left Jackson for their
new adventure.
The tride trosseau was prepared by
her mother, the wedding dress being
white point de spray trimmed in lace.
The Ledger extends to the newly welded
couple its heary congratulations, ano
wishes them bon voyage.

Local Water
Matters Agitated

Mrs Rchtmyer has ordered new
pipe ID be placed across the north fork
of Jackson creek, and some distance
over each side. This portion of the
main pipe has given much trouble OF
late. Several breaks have occurred and
the old pipe seems unequal to Withstand
the pressure, as this is the lowest point
along the line, and therefore subject to
the greatest pressure. The pipe has been
ordered and is expected here every
day.
Last month the minimum rate for
domestic use for family was raised to
81. Heretofore a number were paying
under this rate, but it was decided to
make this the lowest change, There
was OF course some outcrY at the in
auguration of the new rating. 1t is
pointed out that this is the minimum
charge in other places, and that at the
price which the local company pays for
water, it cannot be furnished at less
cost, without involving loss

Supervisor Appointed

Governor Gillett has appointed L. H.
Cook of Volcano as supervisor of dis
trict three to fill the vacancy caused by
the death of A. Crillo. The appointee
was recommended by the republican
county central committee as having the
endorsement CT heavy majority of the
voters of that section. Mr. Cook will
qualify and take his seat at the next
meeting of the supervisors. He will be
the candidate of the republicans at the
next election. There are two demo-
cratic aspirants in the field, W. Brown,
and w. E. Deaver. II is understood
that l.. Burke is a candidate on the
democratic side for reelection in town
ship five. 1t was reported last year that
he was satisfied to forego political
honors in future if his brother was ap-
pointed as superintendent of the hospi-
tai. However, he now wants the job
for another four years. No republican
candidate has been mentioned so far in
this district.

BASE BALL GOOD
jackson Loses But Put
Up Good Game

The game OF ball played between the
Vineyards of Sacramento and the Jackson
team last Sunday proved bit one-sided,
Jackson losing by score of II 10 2.
There were several sensational plays
made however on both sides. Myers of
the local team made catch in left field
that was very difficult, because of his
backward uphill run. Buckingham,
the Wingard pitcher made clean hit
through center field in the fifth inning
that brought him a safe home run
Cromer struck ball over the willows
in right field, and would have had safe
3 bagger if proper coacn would have
held him on third base, but enthusiastic
rootels shouted home, and he tried for
home aud was put out.
Arditto pitched fine game up to the
third inning, and then gave out. Jack
son had 2 other good pitchers, but
Sockey was compelled to finish the game
and from the 4th 10 the 9TH was hit un-
mercifully The last two innings, how
ever, he finished strong.
Love was in the game with fist work,
and young Kerr PLAYED snappy game.
Kerr was benched for an inning, but the
team was glad 10 have him go back to
his old stand There is no question
that he will develop into a crack 1910
player, and to bench him for an error
seems a bit foolish.

A BAD RUNAWAY
Frightened Horse Injur-
ed Driver and Escort

Mrs W. R! Green, wife of w. r.
Green of the Union livery stable, and
Miss Ethel Green, a sister-in-law, met
with serious accident while out driv-
ing, near the Bardarack ranch, about 3
miles out of Jackson last Tuesday after
noon.
The horse SHE'D at couple of pack
donkeys, and in plunging around threw
both women out of the light run about.
Miss Green was thrown into a barbed
wire fence and received severe cuts
about her hands. Mrs Green was run
over by the carriage, and the heel of her
shoe completely torn off. She sus-
tanned a badly sprained ankle, anc
wrenched her knee, and as a result is
confined to her bed at home. The
horse kicked himself loose from the
buggy, which was completely wrecked
and was caught some time afterwards by
man named Benecevich at the Bada
rack ranch.
The horse escaped without scratch
and no trace of break could be founo
on the harness.

MarChant for Assessor

We are pleased to announce that John
Marchant of lone, present secretary at
the Preston school of industry, has
consented to allow his name to go be-
fore the voters as candidate for the
republcn candidate for assessor. His
card to that effect appears in saother
column. He is Just the man for this
office, which he filled efficiently for
several years. Few men in Amador
county are better known or more de-
served!y popular with all classes than
John Marchant. The gaps in the re-
publican tickets are being filled up
with exceptionally strong timber.
There is every indication that when the
issue is finally made up, the republican
tickes will be found presenting an in
vincibe front, with the finest material
that has been offered to the voters for
many years, and with the utmost har-
mony in the ranks, success for its
nominees is almost a foregone con-
clusion.

Fixing up City Office

The city clerk has had the floor OF his
office covered with linoleum, making a
decided improvement in the appearance
of things. 1t is contemplated to have
the trustees hold their regular meeting
in this Office. 1t is large enough to ac-
commodate not only the members, but
all spectators who desire to witness the
proceedings. 1t is handler meeting
place than the supervisors room, and
besides this, all the city records are
here, which is also consideration of
importance. But above all, it has the
recommendation of economy. A saving
in the rent of the supervisors room of
S. per month would be effected. This
is not much, IT is true, but it is worth
saving especially when no sacrifice Of
efficiency would be thereby entailed.

A reception was rendered the new
Episcopal rector, Rev. John Edward
Shea and wife, at the National hotel

to the large crowd of united friends who
attended. The parlor was beautifully
decorated for the occasion, and Mrs E.
Kay and daughter Thelma played and
sang several selections. A luncheon was
served and the guests then departed for
their homes.
The ladies guild of the Episcopal
church have finished arrangements TO
have the church and patronage re-
painted Other needed repairs will also
be made to The church.
