MUST MAKE LARGER GUNS

The new batteships of Uncle
Sans navy are to be equipped with
guns of fifteen miles range. The
press dispatches are printing a lot
of stuff about the guns being able
to shoot further han a man can
see. The press writer's had better
move to the clear atmosphere of
Nevada. 1t is Mt trick to see
three times as far as this or any
other gun can shoot. 1t is pos ible
on an ordinary day to look a. the
SUBMITS of peaks sixty miles south
of here, while on clear day one
with ordinary eye sight con see a
hundred miles away.
They will have to trim up the
shooting power of their old guns
to do any out-of-sigbt business in
old Nevada. Appeal.

the Daily Union, published in this

is called to rich ore bein < found

There is also a boost for the
