STATE BANK
MIDDLE GETS
ANOTHER DIP

CARSON CITY, New, Sept. s..
The very many complexities of the
famous State Bank case are becom-
ing more complex, if possible, by
the action taken by attorneys for
the directors of the defunct insti-
tuition, A writ of prohibition has
been filed with the clerk of the
supreme court by Attorney Massey
and Summerfield
While the contents of the writ
has not been made public, still it
is understood that it asks for all
further action to be stopped in the
case until matters covered in the
new banking law have been fully
decided and complied with.
1t is claimed by some of the at
torneys for the directors of the late
lamented institution that the bank
examiner is empowered by certain
sections of the banking law passed
at the last legislature (other than
that decided to be unconstitutional
by the supreme COURT to take
charge of the defunct banks as a
receiver and this question will un-
doubleday be thrashed out before
the case will be taken up again in
the district court.
The real desire of the writ is
evidently that Of preventing Judge
Langan from continuing with the
case on the 18th inst. as per the
present program until the supreme
court has passed upon the banking
act as a whole.

RECONSTRUCTION
STARTS ON EUREKA
& PALISADE ROAD
ENGINEER AND SURVEYORS
ARE NOW LOCATING EIGHT
MILE OF NEW ROAD.

The news brought TO Eureka from
Palisade recently by j. A. Gilbert
that an engineer and two surveyors
had commenced the work of locat-
ing a new railroad out of Palsade
for the Eureka & Palisade railway,
was most welcome to Eurekans, and
Mr.. Gilbert was given the glad hand
and kept busy for some time repeat
ing the good tidings.
Gilbert says the work now being
done out of Palisade for the E. & P.
is to determine the cost of building
the road through the narrows on
the east side of the canyon and
for distance of about eight miles,
it being figured that this distance
will about cover the badly washed
out potrion of the old road, and by
running a grade along the hills on
the east side of the canyon it is
hoped to escape any future flood
waters.
When the E. & P. roadbed was
washed out and the company put
out Of business about Is months
ago, the water not only washed out
the road through the narrow can
yon, but it cut deep gorges in many
places and left the narrow passage
way in such condition that to
rebuild a railroad through the can
yon now presents some engineering
and much difficult work, and it is
generally stated that the cost of re-
building this eight miles will
amount to considerable more than
will be necessary to repair the other
76 miles into Eureka. Had it not
been for this eight miles Of diff
cult and costly work, there is little
doubt but that the r. & p would
have been operating trains over the
road in thirty days after the wash
CUT.
Besides the engineer and survey
ors now at work near Palisade, one
of the head men of a construction
company is also there checking up
the work, and he is no doubt pre-
pairing bid for doing the con
struction work.
While the present work is only
Of preliminary nature, it looks
pretty good to the people at this
end of the line, and bears out the
prophesy of three weeks ago that it
had then been decided to rebuild
the road and it was thought that
some movement looking to this end
would be made after September 1
Let the good work go on.

FITTING TRIBUTE
To NEVADA BOY

Chris Zabriskie, Carson boy, who
has made his way in the world
and also to fortune, and now bust
ness manager Of f. M. ("Borax')
Smith, has placed fitting tribute
to the memory of the late Profess
scr Howe
Chris, like many of the other
Carson boys who have worked up
the ladder of the worlds premiums,
was one of the pupils who took his
guiding steps from the professor.
He always had deep regard for the
professor and the news of his death
was received by Mr. Zabriskie with
sorrow.
Chris, in order to perpetuate the
memory of his tutor, has estab-
lished a scholarship at the Nevada
State university, consisting of 5000
a year. The fund is in trust of Mrs.
Howe and Professor Stubs, of the
university, and is known as the
Howe Memorial scholarship.
George McCreery, of this CITY,
won this scholarship this year and
is now enjoying its benefits. He
is worthy young man and will
make good both to the doner and
to the memory Of Carson's best
known teacher. 1t is a fitting trib-
ute to the old professor.

Center of Population Westward.

Westward the star of empire takes
its flight" That has always been true
In the history of civilization, but It is
especially true today in the United
States. According to the census
bureau at Washington the population
center in the last ten years moved
westward more than thirty-one miles,
twice as much as In the preceding dec
ade, II stands to reason that It's
flight this way will be much faster in
the coming ten years, for each decade
profits in advancement upon the con-
struction work OF the one before.
The population center is now In
Monroe county, Indiana, which is in
the second tier OF counties south of
Indianapolis, and the geographical
center of the country is at a point In
northern Kansas, making the distance
between the two centers $50 miles
How long will II take the center OF
population to catch up with the center
OF the land? That is an interesting
question. In its answer is wrapt up
good deal OF the economic and social
development of the country. We have
already staked out our last frontier.
so that this westward fight OF the
star OF empire involves no advancing
OF the territorial outposts, but rather
flling-in process. This is the work
for the future, building up and open
ing up the country within.
The center of population must not
be allowed TO swing backward. toward
the east. That would be bad for the
country in every way. We need to
equaliEe our centers of settlement. to
steadily draw away the overflow OF
the large urban centers OF the east

The Ice Holdup in New York.

The arbitrary raise OF the price Of
ice in New York City, which precip-
itated ice riots, has been followed by
an investigation by the police COM
missioner, who reports the high price
due to the greed OF the ice COM
panies." The excuses offered by the
latter OF increased demand, short
supply and inability to get men to
handle the commodity are pronounced
insufficient. and the impression is con-
veyed that the investigation will be
followed by some action by the au-
thorities to stop the holdup.
Here In Omaha the ice barons did
not wait for hot weather, as in New
York, but took time by the forelock
and boosted the price for home de-
livery way back in May 25 per cent
above the highest price charged any
neighboring city. 1t is noticeable,
too. that all the ice companies here
raised the price by exactly the same
amount at precisely the same time.
OF course, there is no ice trust in
Omaha any more than there is in
New York.
