THE FIRST SACK.
Of Fallon Sugar Is Bought For
$1,000.


The first sack of merchantable
sugar produced by the local factory
and of course, the first produced
within the state was purchased by
Harry Morris, of the Morris-Loring
drug company, Mr. Morris being the
highest bidder This distinction is
an enviable one, and had the sugar
company advertised for bids on the
first sack sold the bidding would
have been state wide But the con-
servatiye men behind the factory are
not seeking reward this way. Mr..
Morris made an offer of $40 for the
first sack and it was given to him.
In times to come when the local fac
tory has taken its place as the states
greatest industrial enterprise, the
first sack of sugar will have a mark
ed significance.
Mr.. Morris has placed the sack of
pure white glistening sugar in the
drug store show indow together with
excellent views of the ugar factory
which are attracting considerable
attention from passersby.

WATER USERS MET SATURDAY
Received Report OF National
Federated Water Users And
Asked For Postponements.

The meeting of the Truckee- Wat
er users association members At the
court house Saturday afternoon was
largely attended and much business
of an important nature came up for
the attention Of the water users who
were present. Chief among this
were the matters of receiving the re-
port OF Fulton II. Sears, who recent
ly returned from the netting of the
National Federation of Water Users.
that met in Salt Lake, following the
National Irrigation Congress, where
MIR Sears represented this project.
and the additional mater OF asking
the department for a postponemen
of all 1912 water charges on the
grounds of the seasonal water short
age, with which we are all familiar.
Mr. Sears report dealt with Tie
following questions, all of which
were deemed OF sufficient importance
by the Federated Wator Users that
active espoasal vas given:
The granting Of the option with
all government irrigation projects Of
reimbursins The government for its
Investment n either 10 or 20 annual
installmenta, local conditions te SOY
ern in the selection CT the term o.
years required
The immediate turning over of ali
government irrigation projects to tho
water users associations.
The appointment Of a resident
business manager by the secretary to
become effective only upon the ap-
proval of the water users affected
This demand is made, according to
Mr.. Sears. in the belief that the gov
ernments engineers are too busy
in their pursuits to allow of business
administration.
The Federation has levied an as
scssment OF one cent an acre on ell
lands in the government projects rep
resented, which levy will return n
fund of about $4,000. which will
be used by the association to further
its aims in the interests of the arid
land farmers
Another important business Of Sat
urday's meeting was the decision to
base a request for postponing the
1912 water charges on the water
shortage OF the past growing seas
on. and to this end all project water
users are requested to prepare state
ments of individual losses suffered
and hand them in at the next meet
ing of the association, which occurs

MAJOR COLE DEAD
Passed Away In Washington
ID. c. Sunday.

Major Henry G. Cole, of the regu-
lar army. brother of Project Engin-
eer D. w. Cole. passed away in
Washington, d. c., Sunday, after an
illness of typhoid lasting six weeks.
Death was unexpected, coming after
a period of improvement when every
reasonable prognosis seemed to point
TO a speedy recovery.
Deceased was aged 43 years and
was a man of brilliant attainments.
He was a great favorite in army cir
cles and was high in official life, hav-
ing been entrusted at different times
in the past with government mis-
sions to foreign countries. He saw
active cervice during the Spanish
American war and upon his return
from the Philippines about IL years
ago was assigned to staff duty in
Washington as assistant to the COM
missary-general of the American
army establishment.
He left widow and little son,
the latter four years of age In ad-
dition there are two brothers and an
aged mother to mourn his untimely
taking away.
The remains will be buried in the
National cemetery at Marietta Ca,
by the side of the remains of his
father, who is the only civilian bur-
led in this famous burying place, a
privilege that was accorded by reas-
on of the fact that the elder Cole was
the donator of the cemetery grounds
and that he remained steadfast,
Union man throughout the long con-
fiict, despite the fact that his stand
meant social ostracis mand endanger.
ed his life and property.
The deceased visited Fallon last
July. spending at that time week
at his brothers home in this place,
and while here he made numerous
friends who viii greatly deplore his
luntimely death.
