NEED OF WATERWAYS

Census figures show that the
four largest water cities of the
country-St. Louis, New Orleans,
Pittsburg and Cincinnati-had a
comparatively small growth dur
ing the past ten years. 1t would
appear that the prominence of
the railroads and the decadence of
water transportation were: RESPONSE
BILE, but the lake cites of Buffalo,
Cleveland, Detroit and Milwaukee
whose commerce is largely water
borne, showed a tremendous in
crease in population. There is no
doubt, however, that the river
cities which came into being be-
cause of their transportation ad-
vantages have been retarded by
the country's marvellous railroad
development. The roads have had
the power to put the water lines
out of business or restrict their
tonnage by cutting rates which
might easily be prevented by in
creasing the facilities for using
these waterways. For this reason
river transportation and river i'm
provement cannot be safely
neglected. Even if the tonnage of
the streams is comparatively in
significant, the waterways are a
protection against discrimination
and excessive tarffs which we cam
not afford to be without

GEORGE M'INROSH

Two years ago George Mcintosh
of Carlin, one of the oldest resi-
dents of the county, was elected a
member of the az sembly. He
severd during the session of 1909
and made a splendid record as a
hard working, Industrious con-
scientious legislator. He favored
all measures that he believed were
for the best interests of the
county and state and oppo sed all
measures that he believed to be
wrong.
1t fell to him to introduce the
bill to abolish licensed gambling
in this state. In introducing that
meas ure and supporting it he was
backed up by petitions from nearly
every precinct in the county.
Those petitions were signed by
men in every walk of life who felt
that it was time for the state of
Nevada to drive out a business
that had been driven out of every
other state and was making it's
last stand here. A business that
was running the young men Of the
state and causing misery, sorrow
and suffering in many home.
Mr.. Mcintosh supported and
voted for that measure at every
stage of it's passage through the
assembly. 1t became a law with
amendments that the gambling
e ement forced in it in order to
defeat 1t on its final passage in the
assembly. He believes that law
will give workingmen homes Of
their own and feed and clothe
their families instead of their wages
going over the gambling tables
into the hands and purses of those
who run the gambling games. 1t
is said that Mr.. Mcintosh cannot
be re. selected because of his
prominence in the passage of the

INDUSTRY OF NYE COUNTY

1t may not be generally known,
but it is fact, that one of the in
dustries of Smoky valley-and dur
ing the past summer a rather inn
portant one-is the capture and
shipment of wild horses, which
roam this section in considerable
numbers, says the Tonopah
Bonanza. During the season just
passed, George Maute, who drives
the Manhattan-Round Mountain
stage, with the help of half a
dozen Indians, rounded up 224
head of the untamed equines.
These were to fill an order from
George Able Of Austin, who paid
Maute So per head for each
animal he captured. In turn Able
sold them to representative of
Southern dealers for $40 apiece.
The horses are intended for use in
the Southern cotton fields.
They are as wild as deers, but
by the time the vaqueros get
through with them-first lassoing
them and then herding them in
corral, where the more obstreper-
Gus ones are given the third de-
gree-thelr spirit is considerably
tanned.
Illustrating just how wild these
animals are, one incident that
occurred during this seasons hunt
may be mentioned. Maute and
his Indians had driven herd con-
sisting of a stallion and four
mares up to cliff near Coyote
Holes. There was no way out for
the horses except by the way they
went in. So they were penned on
the cliff. Maute sent an Indian to
drive the animals down. The stall
lion, sensing a capture, evidently
took a heroic resolution. He
sprang over the cliff to the ground,
eighty feet below, to meet instant
death and without hesitation the
mares followed him. They preferred
death to certain capture.
Bands of the animals are seen
daily from the stage road, but they
religously keep some four or five
miles distant, at least. They feed
on the bunch grass and white sage.
There are some excellent animals
among them.

MADE A PERSONAL APPEAL
suPp!anted Laundress Successful In
Effort to Retain Patronage Of
Duke Of the Abruzzi.

AT Salsomaggiore, says a writer In
McClure's. there was a laundress who
had always enjoyed the patronage OF
the Duke Of the Abruzzi whenever he
came there to take the cure on his re-
turn from one of his expeditions. The
duke Of course knew nothing about
this matter, which was attended to
by his chauffeur-valet. Now, for some
reason, OF which | am ignorant, the
servant had taken a notion to change
laundresses; hence great humiliation
on the part OF the good little woman
who naturally priced her celebrated
patron. What was she to do? She
wanted to get an explanation Of the
matter, at any rate; so one day she
placed herself on the road where the
duke was to pass. When he came up
she said to him: "Your highness is no
longer satisfied with your former
laundress?" who said so?" why.

linen and / am very unhappy about
