REALTY DEALER BELTEs
LARGE RANCHES WILL
Be SUBDWDEO

IL the demand for small acres
for farming continues by men of
small means who come to Elko
codnty seeking homes what are they
going to find unless the large
ranches are put ON the market for
subdivision.
This is the question put to an
Independent representative by Mr..
W. n. Tremewan the Elko land
man.
Mr.. Tremewan has a number of
ranches listed for sale which are
from 1900 acres to several thou
sand acres and as he explains there
are not numerous buyers for these
large tracts. and so often the own.
ers of such extensive acres are I'M
willing to sell any part of their
land or GO into the project of cut
ing il up for sale in small farms.
As the public lands are constant
Iy being taken up under the home
stead and desert filing thus rapidly
cutting off the stockmen range il
is causing some of the larger land
owners to figure the advantage of
selling out to colonization people at
a very profitable price. and these
land selling companies will in turn
sell these big tracts to farmers
of 40 acres or more.
Mr.. Tremewan firmly believes
the time is rapidly approaching
when many of the splendid well
watered ranches in the fertile
valleys of Elko county will be more
valuable for intensive cultivation
Than as stock ranches and the
owners are beginning to realize
this fact which will result in their
subdiyiding or selling out to cor
porations who will develop the
water systems and settle up these
productive lands with the thrifty
practical farmers.

R"OOSEvELT'S WAY

Mr.. Roosevelt wastes no time in
discussing the mass of evidence in
the White House defense of the
contests before the Chicago con-
vention.
He W the taft statement
of facts by comparing the renomi-
nation of the president to the cleo
tion of Lorimer. "The two cases
stand on a par" he says.
This is a simple. easy method of
controversy admirably adapted to
the emotional minds of MIR. Roose-
velt's followers. What do they
care for facts? The truth is what
ever Mr.. Roosevelt happens to say
and whenever he happens to say il.
Callir q yourlopponent a thief and
a liar and a robher and a bandit
and a burglar and pickpocket not
only prevents confusion but IL
saves time and energy. Had MIR.
Roosevelt undertaken to analyze
all the evidence presented by Mr..
TAFT he might have destroyed his
own case, hut when he compares
the president Of the United States
to William Lorimer he leaves the
Roosevelt forces in triumphant
possession Of all the moral issues
of the campaign.

idolator ask than the blessed priv.

POWER OF PARDONING

About eighty of the hundred
and thirty-three minated Of the
State prison have petitioned the
board of pardons for either parole
or pardon, and their petitions will
be heard at the meeting of the
board which will be held early in
the coming month. OF this
number of eighty there are perhaps
a few who are worthy of thier
cases being heard but the greater
number should be turned down
without any consideration what
ever.
In every case the men have been
found guilty by a jury of their
peers and still e ch one Of these
men claim they are innocent of the
crimes committed or were justified
IN their actions. II this be so, then
something is materially wrong
with our system of law and order
and the juries should be exchanged
for the prisoners, for they must be
the greater criminals in sending
innocent men to Jail.
Prison reform. as inaugurated in
The State of Nevada is Il farce and
is making the state the laughing
stock of the Union. Expensive
trials are held and then upon the
plea of the convicted they are turn
ed loose after a few months behind
the walls. to prey once again upon
society. II the board Of pardoLs
is to make itself the great tribunal
Of the state. il would be for better
and cheaper to put all cases up to
them in the first place instead Of
holding trials and having sentenc-
ing judges.
The people of the state will watch
with a great deal of interest the
coming session Of the hoard Of
pardons.-Carson News.

a plan. whereby the great unde-
veloped of this county
comld be presented factfully and in
diligently to the people of the east
and middle west states who are
eagerly lacking westward for
homes, farms and investments, has
been an ambition of the publisher
to inaugurate for a long time. and
that time was never 50 OF perfume as
the present.
We see upon the trains daily the
many people passing through our
county thronging to California
where they are finding new homes
and farms: Is il not possible to
attract a per cent of these thou
sand of new settlers" and invest
ors TO Elko county? Must we wait
until California is as thickly settled
as the New England states or the
middle western states before we
| get ready TO invite capital and
population to Elko county? When
we consider that the Western
Pacific and the Southern Pacific
running through our county is but
two of the many carriers deliver
ing the thousands of home-seekers
to California some conception of
the enormity of new population and
new capital heing unloaried there

ing list Of inquircrs; to people who

The TIME WAS NEVER RIPE B

crops arc growing upon land where
great herds roamed before and
orchards and gardens have sprung
up from the midst of wild land and
where every thing once was brown
with sage brush il is now green
with alfalfa.
INFLUX HAS ONLY BEGUN
1t follows logically that the great
influx has but begun that this
year and the next and years to
come as fast as the large ranches
are subdivided the water will be
provided adequate to the develop
ment Of countless more fine produc-
tive farms. and Elko county will
be a county where prosperity
reigns supreme.
More settlers soon become in
dependent farmers. and the result
is more factories with other lines
of enterprise in the towns which
means a bigger and stronger and
better city behind which will be
the wonderful resources of the
Fentire county.
DEMAND FOR SMALL TRACTS
So the time approaches for the
subdivision into smaller holdings
than the 800 acres which composed
the original filings or the present
number of many large ranches ron.
tanning several thousand acres.

To those of the east and middle
states who are contemplating q
home in this matchless sun-Kissed
west We say in all sincerity that
this is the time to come to ElkC
county, Nevada. The price OF
land will be more a year hence,
and with small capital from Ten tc
Fifty thousand dollars there are
investments waiting at a ridicu,
lousy small figure considering the
