GREAT LUMBER
DRIVE IN IDAHO
Especial to the Silver State.)

SPOKANE, Wash, March 49,
Seventy-fve million feet of saw
logs, chiefly white pine, is contained
in drives to be started on the Occur
d 'Alene, st. Joe and st. Maries rivers
in northern Idaho late this month or
early in April. The drive ON the
Coeur d d'Alene river amounts to 40,-
100000 feet and is the largest yet sent
down that stream. The drives on the
st. Maries river total 20,000,000 feet
and those on the st. Joe are estimated
at 100000 fet.
Most of the logs are from the burn
ed over national forest districts, which
were swept by flames in August, 1910,
when more than 100 fire fighters lost
their lives and several million dollars
worth of timber was destroyed or
scorched. Six weeks to two months
will be consumed in reaching the
lakes, where the logs will be sent to
mills in northern Idaho and eastern
Washington. Large drives also are
planned in other parts of Idaho, Wash
ington, Oregon and Montana, thus Civ
ing employment to many river men.
Sawmills in the intermountain dis
tricts will begin the season g cut in
April and it is estimated by Alfred W..
Cooper, secretary of the Western Pine
Manufacturers association, <that the
plants in eastern Washington and Ore
gon, north and central Idaho and west
ern Montana will handle more than
1,250, 100000 board feet. Large or
ders for white pine have been receiv-
ed in Spokane from South America,
the south coast of Africa and Euro
pean points and there is an increased
demand for American lumber in the
prairie provinces of Canada.
There also is lively demand in
the Atlantic coast states, and the re-
vival in building operations through
out the central states and the unusual
amount of railroad and other construc-
tion work planned this year in the
northwest is bound to give q better
market tone, in addition to taking up
the surplus stocks.

NEW COUNTY HIGH SCHOOL
BUILDING OPENED LAST night
LARGE Audience In Attendance Addressed by DISTINGUISHED
Educators and Local Officials Musical PROGRAM
Pleasing Feature Of Entertainment

A large audience gathered last even
high school, the occasion being the for
NAL opening of the Humboldt county
high school building. Seats had been
provided for 200, every one of which
had an occupant, and in addition there
were perhaps fifty standing.
Prof. J. F. Graham acted as chair
man of the meeting, and seated on the
rostrum were Prof. John Edwards Bray,
state superintendent of public instruc-
tion, Ruben Cyril Thompson, asso-
ciate professor of Greek and Latin at
the Nevada State University J. F.
Abel, deputy state superintendent of
public instruction for this district, H.
w. Duncan secretary of the county
board of education, Senator w. J.
Bell and T. A. Brandon, trustees of the
Winnemucca school district.
While the audience was being seated
and prior to the opening of the pro-
gram, Smiths orchestra rendered
three numbers, the last being followed
by selection by the Choral club, COM
posed of the young ladies of the high
school and Seventh ani Eighth grades
of the public school.

sell and it is as good transportation as
there is any place in the world. We
want population to sell it to. We need
the money to pay taxes. Taxes in our
state are high. IF they go higher you
know it will surely discourage settlers.
Our state pays liberal salaries to its
officials. 1t has plenty of them, and
of commissioners, as the controller =
report will show.
"We believe every citizen of Neva-
da should get this report and read
it. While Nevada's entire population
is only half of that of the city of Oak
land. California; onefourth that of
Los Angeles, one-ffth that of San
francisco, we are trying to maintain
sixteen fully and frst-class equipped
county governments with a state gov
ernment in class A as regards expense
Can Nevada keep it up and get set
tiers? 1t is up to the people. But,
really, you should get copy of the
controllers report and read it. 1t will
show you that the state of Nevada
gives out some mighty good jobs.
"We want the people of Nevada to
be prosperous. If so, We prosper ac-
cordingly Population, if its efforts
are properly applied, increases pros
perity and land values in the county
and towns.
Winnemucca has great future
The available rich agricultural and
mineral lands to the north and south
insure that. You have the energy and
wisdom to make use of your natural
advantages, which are many. There
are likely better things in store for
your town than you realize. The
Southern Pacific believes in you, in
your county, and in your town s fu
ture increased population and pros.

SOUTHERN PACIFIC
TO EXTEND LINES

A private wire to the Gazette led to
some important developments with re-
lation to the proposed extension of the
Southern Pacific system through the
northern region.
A member of the law department of
the Southern Pacific company arrived
from San Francisco last night and left
this morning for Alturas on the Elks
special. While he was unwilling to
state his mission, or even to give his
name, it was definitely learned that
he carries with him a voluminous doe
ument for recording at the county seat
of Modoc.
1t contains all the surveys, rights of
way and franchises of the Goose Lake
Southern and Modoc northern rail
ways, which have been decided to the
Central Pacific Railway company.
Both of these are roads that were
projected number of years ago, but
neither project arrived at the con-
struction point, although all the pre-
liminaries were arranged.
The Goose Lake Southern line starts
at Lakeview, Oregon, and runs through
Goose Lake valley, touching Pine
Creek, Davis Creek and Alturas, thence
in a southerly direction to point
connecting with the main line of the
Southern Pacific company at Anderson
in Shasta county. There are also sur
veys, rights of way and franchises for
branch from point near Alturas ex-
tending through Modoc, Lassen and
Tehama counties to point on the
Southern Pacific main line at Vina,
California.
The surveys, franchises and rights
of way for the Modoc Northern com
pany indicate that this line also starts
at Alturas and extends in northwest
erly direction, connecting with the
Klamath Falls railroad at a point near
Klamath Falls, Oregon.
In connection with these transfers
of title is the fact that the Utah Con-
struction company is building line
! for the Southern Pacific company from
Vale, Oregon, in a soutyesterly di-
rection. The extension of this line
would reach point about forty miles
north of Lakeview, where it would
connect with the line of the Southern
Pacific company is presumably to con
struct on the strength of the above
mentioned records of the rights, inter
ests and titles of the two projected
railroads.
Inference may, of course, be drawn
from these facts, but all that is neces-
sary is to consult California, Nevada
and Oregon map and the connection
between these activities and the build
ing of the Fernley Northern is an
parent.-Reno Gazette

high school occupies in the life Of the
community.
The audience was then favored with
selection by quintette, composed
of Miss Beth Warren, Evelyn Sheehan,
Alice Wagner, Effie Piper and Dora
Waters.
Prof. Reuben Cyril Thompson was
the next speaker, taking for his topic
the Conservation of the Great Waste
Rroduct.' Prof. Thompson gave q
graphic portrayal of the great material
waste in mining, milling, manufactur-
ing and other industries, due to a lack
of scientific methods and mental
waste. All these ills may be remedied
by education, and the high school
building stands as the bulwark against
mental, moral and social loss.
The next number was song by the
Glee club, composed of the boys Of the
high school and the Seventh and
Eighth grades of the public school.
Short addresses were then made by
H. W. Duncan, Prof. Abel, Senator
Bell and 7. A. Brandon, which con-
cluded the program for the evening.
The building was then thrown open
for the inspection of visitors, who
made the round of the rooms and ex-
pressed themselves as being well
pleased with the institution.
Work Begins This Morning.
School work was commenced in the
new building this morning, under d.
rection of Prof. J. F. Graham, prin-
cipal, and Miss Cowgirl, vice-principal.
Every enrolled student was present,
and the new and pleasant surroundings
apparently gave an added impetus to
