WHAT A MAN OWES HIS TOWN
Robert Burdette Hits Nail on
Head In Discussing This
Interesting Subject.

What does man owe to his town?
He owes this duty to himself and the
town-to own part of it. Ever SO
small lot if he can't own a big one.
A forty-foot front if he can do no bet
ter. But he should own part of the
town. That gives him a stake in it.
THAT man who owns home in the
town never calls his town 1T. When
he speaks of it, whether 1t be London
or al-Holt, New York or Waikiki, he
says VELOUR town. And he has
right to. He is stockholder. a part
ner.
more than that, when he owns
piece of ground, farm or town lots, he
has stake in the EARTH. He is a
citizen of the universe. His property
extends from the birthstone out to the
stars. Even now they are disputing
concerning the right of an air ship to
sail through the air over mans house
without the owners permission. The
very thought is enough to make man
feel chesty. And with good cause.
"A man who owns his home begins
to study his ticket six week before
election day. He scrutinizes every
name on it, and looks up the candi-
dates record. 1t is the man that can
tie up his real and personal property in
a l. bapdk areh;af that oknts nc axao apd
votes the ticket the boss gives him
without unfolding it.
"A man owes it to his town to boost
it, in public on all occasions and at all
times. The corrections of its failings
and faults are for the privacy of the
home circle. A man who would thrash
his boy on the front steps of the court
house ought to be whipped out of town.
The citizen who welcomes the stranger
by telling him what government we
have, what a corrupt set of officials
misrule the town; how the town lags
behind the age in all matters of pro-
gress and development, that it is a
dead town and will be 80 as long as GER
tain men rule it, is an undesirable
citizen.
When man tells you that what
his town needs is dozen first-class
funerals, he may be correct. But HE
should be the first buried.
A man owes it to his own town to
shout its advantages from the house,
tops. The entire registry lists should
be the promotion committee. II neces-
sary put binders on the visitor and let
him see, but what you want him to see.
When he asks what chance a poor man
has in town, tell him the truth. Tell
him the poor man is the only man who
has chance. And that is no joke.
Show him the beautiful homes of the
men who came here with a capital of
working hands and thinking brains.
Tell him the story of the man who be-
gan with day wages. Tell him you
think there should be law compelling
the poor man to give the rich man a
handicap when they come into competi-
ton with each other so as to give the
rich man a chance. 1t is penniless boys
like John Rockefeller, Andrew Carnegie,
Phil Armour and that class, who backed
the rich mems suns of their poverty
laden days clear off the camp"

Otto Steinheimer, of Reno, state
agent for the Studebaker implement
company, is in fallon with Studebak-

manner. Mr.. Steinheimer has mod
crate priced car well within the reach
of most local folks, and interested ones
can find him at the Overland hotel for
the next few days, where he will be
pleased to discuss details surrounding
the sale of his car.

SUGAR FACTORY AFFAIRS
Progress Satisfactorily. T W o
Carloads of Beet Seed
Arrived Tuesday.

Two car loads of sugar beet seed, ag-
gregating thirty tons in weight, ar
rived in Fallon Tuesday direct from
Bohemia, and will soon be ready for
distribution to prospective beet grow
ers. However it will first be stored in
the sugar factory warehouse and later
resacked for distribution. This seed is
the finest procurable and excellent re-
suits are anticipated during the COM
ing season, during which this consign-
ment is expected to fructify and bring
forth product that will suffice to en-
able the Fallon factory to maintain a
profitable sugar manufacturing cam
paign.
Meanwhile work has been progress
sing in highly satisfactory manner on
the factory buildings under the manage
ment of General Manager Fred Hinze,
who sees to it that everything is work.
ing smoothly. Bricklaying has been
temporarily stopped because of the
frosty nights, through fear that the
freezing might lessen the life of the
brick walls.
Two carloads of steel beams have
been shipped from Buffalo, N. Y, and
expected here daily. Other supplies
are being forwarded as rapidly as the
local force can handle them. In the
meantime, the machinery, about all of
which has already been purchased, will
not be shipped until the railroad COM
pany completes the projected spur to
The factory site and thus save the cost
of rehandling and transporting by team
a distance of about two miles. 1t is
confidently believed that very short
time will witness active work on the
spur project.
Henry W. Hinze, of Santa Ana,
California, president of the Nevada
Sugar Company, was here last week,
looking over the situation on his way
home from trip to eastern cities and
he is well pleased at the progress If
factory affairs. During his stay here
a meeting Of the board of directors of
the company was held and an optimistic
spirit pervades all departments of this
great undertaking.

A suit was filed in the district court
the last of the week against w. E.
Frazier by one Walker, formerly a
partner In the business, and the report
gained some ground that the New Meat
Market was in financial difficulties as a
result. In reality, nothing of the kind
came about. On the contrary, the suit
was filed for a reason not apparent to
Mr.. Frazier, who has always had the
amount of the purchase price figuring
between the two parties on deposit in
the local bank, awaiting the execution
of legal bill of sale, which to date
has not been forthcoming. In the
meantime, the credit of the New Meat
Market is unimpaired 1t is likely that
the suit will terminate by the plaintiff
having the costs figured against him,
as there are no grounds for the suit.
