the entire nation where the Republi-
can vote did not slump notably, and IN
many cases disastrously. The Sixty
second Congress will be Democratic
by a fine working majority, while in
the United States Senate the Repub-
licans will have only scant lead over
their opponents. New York, Massa-
chusetts, Connecticut and New Jersey
take their places at the head OF the
procession with Decorate governors
and strong Democratic representation
In their legislatures. Ohio, too. is
Democratic.
The two great leaders of the Re-
publican party, President Taft and
Theodore Roosevelt, alike met defeat
in their own states. Roosevelt's home
town of Oyster Bay went against him;
his congressional district chose a
Democratic representative to replace
Congressman w. w. Cocks, Roose-
velt's warm personal friend; his state
repudiated the Republican candidate
for governor by $4,000. AS an addition
al blow, the New York State Legisla-
ture is Democratic and will elect a
Democratic Senator to succeed Chaun-
cey NJ. Depew.

considered assured are from California,
Connecticut, Delaware, Iowa, Massa-

THE WATERS
OF DUCkWATER CREEK
Commissioner Smith E~ndeavoring to Set
tie Long Pending Dispute

Tonopah Bonanza: Claude L. Smith,
who a number Of months ago was ap-
pointed water commissioner for the
Duck water district in an attempt to
settle the long pending dispute in that
section over the rights and quantities Of
water to be appropriated by the ranchers
in that section, has informed Judge
Mark r. Averill that matters are pro-
ceeding favorably and a satisfactory
ending may yet be reached. When Mr..
Smith was in Tonopah about a month
ago this paper printed a story in which
he was quoted as saying that the springs
had not been affected when the waters
were turned in Duckwater creek. There
was evidently a misunderstanding for
Mr.. Smith in a communication states
that as yet it is too early to determine
whether the springs are affected. Sew
eral Of the springs are drying mp. but
whether it is a result OF turning out the
water or a yearly occurrence, he is I'M.
able to state.
The rights to the waters Of the Duck.
water creek have been in the courts for
the last % years and were practically
settled about a year ago by Judge Mark
r. Averill after a bitterly fought case.

borg Of Beowawe and w. r. McCres Of

II is estimated that the grade through
the canyon south of Palisade, about a
mile and a half long. will cost from $500
to $1,000, and the Board is informed
that parties iu the north end are willing
to contribute $500 worth of work to
ward its construction.
AS is we'll known, the county road
through this canyon was completely
washed out last February, aud as the
Z. & p. railroad will probably build it's
grade on the east side Of the canyon, the
county road will have to be graded
above it. The Board has already taken
the matter up with Mr.. Randolph of
the E. & P. to obtain the company's
consent to build the new grade on their
right OF way.
There is no money in the road fund
of the county, and the Board only levied
a tax OF three cents on the 500, which
would only bring in $3.50 for the ensu-
ing year, and as set forth in the above
resolutions, the Board deemed it best
to obtain the consent of the State Board
of Revenue to borrow money sufficient
to pay for the above mentioned work,
and to have some additional money for
next year.
II is hoped that all parties in Palisade
will join in signing a petition as re-
quired by law, so that the work can
be done as soon as possible.
The Board desires to be guided en-.
tirely in the onstr uction of this work
by the views of the people of the Pali-
SADIE road district.

Wednesday Nights Fire Alarm

The alarm of fire about 10 O'Clock
Wednesday night was caused by the
burning of u wood pile between two
shacks in Chinatown. The night being
unusually dark, the blaze from a dis
lance assumed the proportions of a large
building on fire. Owing to the fire COM
panies quickly responding and getting
water on the burning woodpile the
blaze was extinguished before any fur
ther damage was done. The origin OF
the fire is unknown. but it is thought 1t
was started from a lighted cigar or
cigarette carelessly thrown down near
the woodpile.
