1t is stated that on the night OF the
escape, three women boarded tram

identity of these three has not been

one OF the three was Cunningham

In support OF this theroy it is stat

Putting up

The Dayton people are not going

handed them when they took the
county seat from the old town. The
latest move is TO fight the matter out
III the courts The people OF Dayton
have now raised a sum sufficient to
fight the removal through all the
courts Of the state
County seat fights come up about
every time the legislature gets into
action. Mineral county grabbed its
package early in the game and has
settled down to business, but Dayton
believes that she has a chance to keep
the goods at home and will fight to
the last ditch
The people of Dayton realize that
should they lose the court house and
county officials that Dayton is a dead
one. Only the ranches and a milling
plant will be the source OF revenue.
On the other hand, with the court
house at Dayton the old town would
keep in the pace that it has followed

Bad Roads
in Douglass


The wagon road between this city
and Carson Valley Is Ill terrible
condition. The County Commission
ers OF Douglas County have not spent
cent on that piece Of road III mum
Der OF years, while the auto road con
structed by Fred Dangbere has been
closed as the owner of the land feared
that Douglas County would in the
end claim a right -of-way without put
ting up cent.
Now that auto travelling is the gen
eral order and hundreds OF tourists
would find their way to Carson Val
ley, one would naturally be led to
suppose that the people Of Douglas
would take some means OF showing
the stranger their prosperous condl-
tion and build or repair roads SO that
they are at least passable.

During the past few days the Leg
islature has taken up the matter OF
the Orphans Home. This IS one OF
the few states that maintains home
for its orphaned children. The child
ren have always received good treat
ment and the home has been one OF
the most beneficial institutions OF the
state.
Among the plans submitted by the
committee that has gone over the
working details of the Home. is that
of sending the children to the pub
lie schools OF this city. 1t is figured
that by this course the state would be
able to convert the school rooms at
the Home into sleeping apartments
and make the place far more sanitary
and benefit the general condition of
the children
Along this line bill has passed the
Senate providing for industrial train
ing in all public schools where such
training can be adopted. The Carson
schools would be able to take up this
branch of training to the benefit OF
many pupils who are not making any
marked progress in their studies. The
children from the Home would re
ceive such instructions and work to
the benefit OF all
The plan does away with the teach
ers at the Home and allows the mon
to revert 10 the public schools. At
the present time the public school
fund Of this county IS IN a bad way.

an X after the name OF the party you

ANOTHER RAILROAD
TO CROSS NEVADA
Hartman System to be Exteneed
to North Territory

As a result OF the visit of Judge
Lovett and the head officials OF the
Hartman system to the coast, il is
announced on reliable authority that
within thirty days work will begin at
Wadsworth which will result in the
completion OF a direct route from
Portland to Los Angeles, via llazen.
The work will be done as part OF
the I5.OOO.0W expenditure planned
by the Southern Pacific to be made
IN the next five years and will prove
oi the greatest importance to Neva-
da. making this state the crossing
point Of not only two transcontineen-
tai roads, the Southern Pacific and
the Central Pacific, but an important
north and south steel highway join
the NORTHWEST not only with southern
California. but ultimately, it Is be
lieved. forming an outlet to the Gull
of Mexico and clear passage for
immense cotton shipments TO the
Orient via northwestern points.
Construction work for road from
Fernley. near Wadsworth, has al
ready been well begun and the sur
veys indicate that a connection with
proposed extensions into the Des-
chutes Valley from Washington and
Oregon will be made.
In the extension Of the branch from

Wadsworth, the old bridge over the
Truckee that formerly served for the
main line OF the Central Pacific will
be used and the move will revive
Wadsworth from the apathy into
which it has fallen for the last ten
years since the yards and shops OF
the Southern Pacific were removed
from Wadsworth TO Sparks.
The extension from Wadsworth to
Hazen will shortly be commenced
from Wadsworth Southeast and the
connection with Hazen which has
been progressing south OF the Te-
hachcpis for some time will be made
within two years.
In connection with the proposed
extension into Oregon the plans OF
the Nevada, California, Oregon Rail
road are again subject for speculation
although the officials have repeatedly
denied any probability OF sale OF
their road.

ticles OF incorporation so as to pro-
vide Tor an extension to the Dallco
on the boundary line between Wash
ington and Oregon, and ii the South
ern Pacific runs another line there

THE ORPHANS HOME
AND ORMSBY COUNTY
Chance to Enlarge School Fund by
Senate Measure

Ii is rumored that the term will close
account of shortage in the funds.
Could the census-ehiid money that
goes to the Home be applied to this
school it would at least extend the
time Of tuition the full term and as
sure the teachers their pay.
Ornsby County was among the I'M
fortunates that lost their coin i'll the
bank failure Since that time the
fund has been short just that amount
Of money and there seems little
chance OF the coin ever again being
annexed to the school fund. The
trustees have endeayored III every
way to help the situation, but the
truth of the matter is that the money
is moi at hand. and that is what makes
the wheels go round.
BY taking up the proposed plan OF
the Senate it seems that better sum
OF money could be provided and that
this county would benefit largely.
The school is not over-crowded and
is one OF the best equipped in the
state. With the addition Of manual
training it would soon be classed as
among the up-to date institutions OF
Nevada.
The trustees should look this mat
ter up immediately Should they ap
prove the plan it is believed it can be
carried through without doubt 1t is
at least worth the investigation and
the Senate is ready to give the. matter
consideration.

arrival to-day from New York of t.

Pont Powder Company, who has offered
to advance s2,0OO.OOo to this State for the
construction of modern highway the
entire length of the Commonwealth, it
was announced that company with a
capitalization OF $z5,O0O.0C0 will shortly be
organized in Delaware. The purpose of
this company, of which New Workers are
at the head. is to build a boulevard be-
tween New York and Washington. The
promoters are endeavoring to interest
Du Pont in the movement.
