Dayton, Nev., Dec. Is, |

Dayton, New, Dec IS, 1910
Lawrence Corcoran and wife, Of Fal-
lon, are visiting f. I. Howard.
Roy Stoddard and wife, of Reno, are
here on a visit to their brother-in-law,
our district attorney-elect, as is a son-in-
law, wife and babies, Thomas Pepper,

Mrs. Hilderman, of Silverton, Colo
RADIO, arrived here this week to Join her
husband, who is foreman of the cable
line of the Haywood Mill and Mining
company.
Mr.. Hoteling, the principal owner of
the Haywood Mill, Mine and Power
company, was here a few days inspect
ing the mill and cable line. He ex-
pressed himself as being perfectly salts
fed.
Mr.. Koonley, wife and family, left
this week for their home in San Fran
cisco. Mr.. Koonley has had charge of
the construction work from its inception
nearly year and a half ago, and it is a
credit to him and to the company which
employs him. - -~-os
Mr.. Tremble and family have moved
down from Silver City and have rented

Haywood company here. . -s--.-
AL the bins are full at the mill and it
is ready to start.
There are many taxpayers here who
are kicking their heads off about school
matters. They say, we have fewer
scholars than we had two or three years
ago, vet we have double the number of
teachers and over twice the amount to
pay in salaries . Another item for our
legislators.
NJ J. West, of Utah, was here and had
the assessment work done OH the Great
Western mine, which is situated in Pal
niyra and Indian Springs district, six
miles directly north of the town of
Como. He also had a road surveyed
from the Rosedale mine. This would
shorten the present distance to Dayton
by six miles, with only one and a half
miles to build. Mr.. West shipped about
800 pounds of ore to Salt Lake, Utah, to
have it tested by new cyanide process,
which is said to be not only cheaper but
more efficient. 1t will be worked by one
of the greatest metallurgists known.
Mr.. West, when asked if he had any
thing more of interest to publish, said
he expected to return shortly and be-
lieved he would have good news for the
people of Dayton.
Mr.. Spencer, of Ramsey, was in town
this week. He states he struck 30 feet
of good ore in one of his mines. He
says the Ramsey Comstock people are
not going to do the assessment work on
their claims, which will lay the whole
townsite open to relocation. This means
every building excepting those which are

Theodore Roosevelt Home.

The acknowledged first citizen OF the
world today and the most popular Al
merican, Theodore Roosevelt, reached
New York City last Saturday morning.
The welcome given him was nm extra
ordinary demonstration to his populari-
IS and character. So great had been
the spontaneous public interest in his
reception for several months that the
original idca Of general participation in
the formal parade had TO be abandoned.
the application for marching places be.
ing so multitudnous ms to make pro-
cesson too big for even New York City.
Throughout the entire country last
Saturday popular delight was mani
tested In an enthusiastic and demonstra
tive manner over the return Of Mr..
Roosevelt from journcyingS that involv.
cd actual personal peril. And there is
not the least doubt that for weeks to
come the movements Of this man will
be attended by successive demonstra.
tons of interest and jubilation.
The secret Of Mr. Roosovclts popu-
larity is that the world recognizes in
him the most conspicuous and inspiring
exponent Of the cause OF the square
deal. Of human and material eonscrva.
ton. Of higher standards In public, pri
yate. business and political life.

We have heard the assertion that the
major portion of the state press favor
the direct primary because of the fact
that should it pass, it will mean an adj
dltion to their income because of the
second printing of the ballot. If this is
the case, and VIC don't know Jour own
knowledge that it is although it might
be considered reasonable, right here is
where we are against it. The direct
primary will so increase the cost of
campaigns that none but rich men could
hope to compete for any office. We
may be moss-backed but it is our idea
that the cost of campaign is high e.
nough now, and to make any increase
would be a very poor move-from the
viewpoint of the people. Creole Can

HERMISTON SHIPPERS FILED
COMPLAINT AGAINST o. II. & n

Salem, Or.-The Pitts-Weid Lum-
Der company of Hermiston. Or, has
filed a complaint with the railroad
commission alleging that the Oregon
Railway & Navigation company has
refused TO furnish adequate shipping
facilities at Hermiston. The COM
plant sets forth that the sidetrack
at Hermiston IS too small for the
amount Of shipping at Hermiston.
Two big warehouses make il neces-
sary for the lumber company to load
and unload betweent the switch and
man track. which is inconvenient and
cumbersome.
The lumber company does a large
fuel business and the failure of the
shipping facilities at times has been
a direct cause Of fuel famine. The
commission will serve a complaint
on the railroad corporation at once
and set the matter down for inves-
tigation at an early date.
The complaint OF the Holgate Fuel
company OF Multnomah county
against the Portland Railway, Light
& Power company has been dism ssed
on motion OF plaintiff company. 1t
is presumed a settlement has been
reached between the parties.

ENGLISH TURF LOVERS
WATCH FOR KINGS WORD

London.-The funeral of King Ed
ward put an end to the period of ma
tional grief, and while society will
continue to wear somber garments
for many months to come, old King
Sport has reascended his throne and
will continue to reign until the next
royal demise.
When George " died his royal
brother, william ", who succeeded
him, did not let his sorrowing inter-
fere with his pleasure. In fact. six
weeks after Georges death Williams
fleet of horses" finished first, sec
ond and third for the Goodwood cup.
The whole speculation is'now on the
action that the new King will take
regarding racing. When Victoria
died, King Edward passed his horses
over to the late Duke of Devonshire
and they continued running under
the "allstraw" colors of the grouchy
duke until the period Of court mourn
ing had lapsed.
It is hoped that George V will fol-
low the precedent established by his
father and allow the late Kings
thoroughbreds to figure either under
Marsh's or Lord Beresfords names.

strongly by the coast papers, and De-

PLANT GRIPS COMMERCE.
New Danger Comes to Indo- China
Destructive to Trade.

Saigon.-A new danger has come
to Indo-China, as destructive to trade
as sedition is to the administration
OF the hill districts.
A year or two ago some japanese
goods came to Indo-China, wrapped in
mating that contained the seed of an
aquatic plant. In an incredibly short
space OF time the weeds spread and
blocked the waterways up and down
the country. Special clearing gangs
Of workmen had TO be organized to
keep the rivers free for navigation.
while cultivators had their expenses
heavily increased by having to open
up the choked watercourses every
month or so.
Now the pest has spread to the ca
nails and even to the flooded rice
fields. Agriculturalists are panic
stricken for the weeds threaten to
choke the growing crops. The most
afflicted quarter is along the west
coast of Cochin-China.
\ government commission is now
visiting that area with a view of ad-
opting general measures for Kidding
the waters of the plant, but so far the
prospects Of accomplishment are not
rosy.

WILL PUMP WATER
600 FEET FOR IRRIGATION

Redmond, Ore.-Pumping water
from Crooked river to the tablelands
500 feet above the river is an expert
ment being tried here. NJ. NJ. Daven-
port and Neil Christensen have Just
completed a pumping plant which
raises water by means of an overshot
water wheel and supplies their home
steads on the peninsula.
The project is a remarkable under
taking. The Deschutes river and its
tributary, Crooked river, lie in gorges
500 to 1000 feet deep, the walls be-
ing nearly perpendicular. At the
point where the Davenport-Chr
son pump is installed it is necessary
to raise the water 600 feet over four
perpendicular lerges, the highest of
which is rs feet
The undertaking when commenced
last fall, looked like a mammoth Job.
The hardest part was to get the ne
cessary materials to the place where
the wheel was to be installed. All
the material was lowered from the
plains, 600 feet above to the waters
edge. \ wheel seven feet in diam
eter and two feet eight inches across
the face was built. The machinery
ly fastened to the rocks 70 prevent
them from being washed away by
high water. Eleven hundred and
sixty feet of pipe are used in making
the raise Of 625 feet
Tests of the plant have proved
highly successful.

PERU AND ECUADOR
PREPARING FOR WAR

Washington. - Official dispatches
received at the state department from
both Lima, Peru, and Quito Ecua-
dor, indicate that warlike prepara-
tions between Peru and Ecuador are
being rapidly pushed forward and
that n conflict seems inevitable.
In view of the fact that both Peru
and Ecuador had accepted without
reserve Secretary Knox's proposition
for United States Brazil and Argen-
tina to mediate between those two
countries in the matter of their boun-
dairy dispute, the state department
officials are at loss to understand
their present attitude.
1t was the understanding of the Of
ficials that in opening the meditation
proposition they had of necessity ac-
cepted the conditions proposed by the
offer, the principal one being the i'm.
mediate withdrawal of their reserve
armies from the common frontier.
