BALLOT MISSING
FROM NUMBER
OF TUSCARORA

In the counting of the Elko coun-
ty ballots, in the election contest
case, some troubles are arising. 1t
will be remembered published
in the News, a short time ago
the ballots were not particularly
well guarded in the court house
at Elko and lay for a long time
in a pile in corner of a large
room Whether the ballots had
been tempered with or not, is not
known. In the counting of the
Tuscarora ballots a few days ago,
it was shown that the election re-
turns called for total of 100
ballots being used from the ballot
books. OF this number three were
spelled and cancelled. This should
have left 1913 ballots to be couIted
in all, but upon checking the bal
lots there were only 1902, one bal
lot being missing What effect
this loss will have upon the count

in ENFORCEMENT
OF new LAW
WEIGHTS AND MEASURES LAW
FAVORED BY LARGE
FIRMS.

With the arrival Of proper appar-
atus for the testing of weights and
measures, to be used by the weights
and measures commission in carry
ing out the law passed by the last
legislature, the officials OF the ex-
pertinent station of the University
of Nevada, will start out to en-
force the law, according to the
statement made recently by Prof.
S. c. Dinsmore, who will have
charge of the work
The apparatus now on hand at
the experiment station is not
standardized. while the apparatus al
ready ordered will be first sent
to the United States bureau of stan
dards for Standardization. So deli
cate is the equipment that varia-
tions Of any weight down to frac-
ton of an ounce can be detected.
From this outfit working set will
be standardized that will be used
fer field work.
Seventeen states adopted weights
and measure bills during the last
Legislative sessions, and practically
all coincide with the measure pass
ed by the Nevada legislature In
addition to the states in which like
laws are now in force, it is est,
mated that practically half the
states are working under the same
laws.
Prof. Dinsmore stated that he ha(
received many inquiries from large
manufacturing associations askins
for details Of the new law anC

CONSERVE WATERS
OF The HUMBOLDT

That Humboldt county has
wonderful future through the pos
sibilities of land reclamation has
been demonstrated by government
engineers who have surveyed the
land and made measurements Of
the water flow of the Humboldt
river, the principal stream in the
state. 1t is not the normal flow
of water that is now used to irri-
gate the different ranches along the
river, but the surplus waters, the
greater part of which are now prac-
tically going to waste.
1t is understood, and the infor-
nation comes from a reliable source,
that the recent tests made by the
government engineers show that
is water enough going to waste
each year that, if properly handled,
would raise crops sufficient to sup
port at least a million more popu-
lation than Nevada has at the pres
ent time. The Humboldt river trav-
erses the state for a distance of
nearly 400 miles, and during the
spring of the year an immense
volume of water passes down the
stream to the Humboldt sink. where
it forms large lake and finally
evaporates or sinks into the ground.
The Humboldt river at this time
of the year is a comparatively small
stream, but in the early spring
the river spreads its banks at least
100 times its natural width and
under the present system of irri-
cation this water is allowed to 90
to waste. as there is no means of
controlling 1t.
II is proposed by the government
engineers to conserve this flood wa
ter BY series of dams and reser-
voirs. covering the river from one
end 10 the other where ii Is prac-
ticable TO establish these projects

They rode through a long tract Of

They rode through a long tract Of
sudden silence, which seemed oddly
significant after their unwonted talk
ativeness. 1t must have been ten
minutes later that Jem Observed
81 was there this evening"
you were? In church?" she said,
with surprise which was certainly
unflattering. He made no reply, eth
er to her words, or what they infer
red. The silence again fell, and en-
veloped them, less noticeable because
they were riding fast, and talking
might have been difficult.
The moon had made it's appearance
before they entered the drive gates
of Carronlea, and was silvering the
blue and rose twilight with cold pure
light AS Jem came round to help
her to dismount, he said in tones
that sounded particularly ungracious
-"Of course, if you should want TO
ride to the Mission before breakfast
on Sunday could have the Sui
tana saddled and ride with you. You
have only to give me your orders"

Summertime.

ooh, we're sunk enough here, God
knows! but not quite so sunk that

Sure tho seldom, are denied US, when

Stand out plainly from it's false ones,

Or the right way or the wrong way,

Robert Browning.
The sky was deep. deep blue, f1eck

along upon a gay breeze which was
up above, but hardly felt below upon
the happy warm earth, in the act of
mellowing from spring to summer.
Vernon was down the kitchen garden.
long apron Of pale green linen al
most enveloping her white morning
gown, and her pocket filled with a
trowel, hank of bass, and various
other signs Of her calling, which for
the moment was that of gardener.
She had been very busy with the
gardeners that morning, bedding out;
and now, for relaxation, she was
gathering a big handful of Mrs. Sim
kins' from the opulent border which
fringed the asparagus bed. Her large
sun hat was of pale pink-the lum-
inous kind of thin straw which you
buy in the market-place at Florence
and twist into any shape you please.
1t made warm and pleasing shadows
over her curly hair and her smooth
brow and her clear eyes. 1t was very
hot in the walled garden, for it was
almost midday. A brown boy in
corduroys was picking gooseberries
for tarts among the bushes at little
distance. Mrs. Bardsley and her head
man were down .the path, near the
potting sheds, discussing deep ques-
tons of gloxinias with regard to the
Flower Show.

1T know" said Jem.
IT waded-the other day. 1t was
as warm as June. The sun and the
broom and the hawthorn flower sent
me mad, think! And the water
spirits took me. and I said I would
follow them, and they led us across
the waste-Sultana and me-and over
the summit of Wishfield Gap, an.
down to the Mission of the Resurrec--
ton; and Miss Morrison was standing
in the middle Of the road, and she
wanted doctor fetched, and I went.
That was how it began

the girl.

''Then you have been to Wishfeld
before? All, of course, you said you
had business here-do you know
Father Conroy?"
Yes" said Jem. Hes by the way
of being a friend Of mine"
"Have you ever"-the girls voice
dropped, and her eyes looked sudden
ly soft and veiled-"have you ever
been to service at the Mission
Yes" said Jem, as if he admitted
the humiliating fact with reluctance.
Don't you," she began, but stopped
in time. If by any remote chance
Jem had the kind of feeling about
the Mission which she had, then to
try to make him lift the veil and re-
veal his Holy of Holes would be out
rage. She was suddenly nervous,
, confused, conscious that she had said
good deal with very little encour-
agement from him beyond what is
given by sympathetic silence. Oh,
was that silence really sympathetic,
or was it merely contemptuous? a
shiver crept over her as she pictured
him making fun of her wading in the
pool, or, worse yet, of Miss Morrison

Yesterday a conference was held in
the capitol with the Governor, secrc.
tary Mott-Smitii, Attorney General
Lindsay and the superintendent of pub.
lie works attending. AS result, work
is at last to be started and the question
of the general public, asked thousand
timos curing the past few weeks:
When is that revolving fund to begin
its resolutions ~ is TO be answered.
Governor frcar speaking on the ques-
tiun yesterday afternoon said:
We have at last got the data to-
gether to justify our going ahead. Ac-
eurate surveys have been made of the
different pieces of land and titles
looked into, the proper grades deter
mined, and general scheme for i'm
prOveing the land worked out. This has
naturally taken a long time.
The area to be reclaimed now will
extend from King street to the sea, and
from South street to Ward avenue The
district is made up of good many
pieces of land. Some are large and are
owned by large estates. A great many
of them are small. There is a great
deal of detail work involved in getting
up proper resolutions and notices. In
all 40S,s43 cubic yards of earth will be
moved to I'll in the low spots.
"The board of health will pass the
resolutions before long, and the super
intendent of public works will give no
tice to the parties, and then they will
have certain time in which to begin
work. In case they fail to do so, then
the superintendent will do the work for
them.
Probably the most practical way will
be for the superintendent to make a
large contract to cover the whole area,
so as TO have it done at lower cost.
! ] understand that the large estates are
ready to agree to this. The numerous
owners of small lands have not yet been
consulted very much on the subject, and
we do not know just how far they will
| cooperate.
