ranch which adjoins .he Cook
Heitman place and is getting ready
for spring work. This place has
been under lease for some years
past.
In again assuming charge of this

considering the advisablity of in
stalling an electric pumping plant
t. take the place of the gasoline
plant which was installed some
years ago. The consideration OF
electric power is with a view of
econamizing on the cost ofspump-
ing, which is an important factor
when profits are to be considered
An so b. p. gasoline engine has
been used to get water onto the
high ground and its expense of
operation has been quite an item.
In fact, so much so, that Mr.. Full
stone is considering electricity for
power. Should his Investigations
show that a reasnable saving can
be made, line..will be run to CON

these many years. He secured ad-
joining property and added it to
his original holdings. Being a

Indulge In
Fist Fight

Tuesday Charles Norcross, OF
the Nevada Publicity Bureau,
met Hal Mighels, city editor of
the Carson Appeal, on the street
and asked him who wrote a certain
article that had appeared IN that
paper the day previous. Michaels
said he wrote the article in ques-
tion, whsreupon Norcross called
him a liar. The editor crossfred
with one better and then Noreross
got his publicity fist into action
and planted blow that knocked
Michales down. The latter how
ever "cranked up" advanced his
spark and tramped on his acceler-
ator. With full speed ahead he
collided with the publicity one.
Then something happened to the
both of them-friends butted in
spoiled the whole thing, with the
result that neither man knows VIII,
is the mightiest.
The article which appeared in
the Appeal that caused the rumpus
follows.
"Of course no one thinks for
minute that any of the gasoline
itsmized in the publicity con-
missions account and paid for by
the state, was used in the ma
chine while out on Joy excursions,
fishing trips"
Norcross denies that the state
automobile has been used for 10y
rides" or fishing trips.
Following close On the heels of
the above mix-up, Chief Justice
James Sweeney and State Printer
Farnsworth (both Democrats)
became engaged in a heated argu-
ment in the corridor of the capi-
tol building. Finally mere words
were cast aside for more forceful
weapons and they went at it ham
mer and tongs. Gentlemen JIM
got trifie worst Of the deal but
both men shed blood.
Dignity among Nevada's high
officials is somewhat lacking.

his peaceful, quiet and
unassuming. He was an upright
citizen and kind and loving
father TO his three children.
Dave Jones did not fear to meet
his maker, but his knowledge that
he was soon to leave his youngsters
gave him great sorrow as wished he
to see them grown before being
called away.
Besides the three children, Arlie,
Raymond and Marvin, he leaves
two brothers, lsarel and Hiram
Jones, who have the profound
sympathy of the community in
their loss.
The funeral was held from the
Methodist Church Wednesday

 About every admirer of the Speak er it would seem, has felt 1t 1ncom- bent upon him to send a plaster cast of a fearful canine that looks as though it had been kicked around since Grover Cleveland left the White House in 1897. Every day a fresh consignment of 'houn dawgs" appear-little dogs, big dogs, dogs in plaster, in water colors, in pen and ink, etc.
 A San Francisco woman donated beautiful piece of statuary showing a farmer carrying a dog under his arm and seemingly Hooking we'll pleased with conditions in general. Another admirer contributed a bloodhound. done in water colors while Mis- suurian, whose name the Speaker withholds, has volunteered to present him with the finest flesh and blood hound that ever parked up a coon tree in Missouri. The offer will prob ably be accepted as soon as Congress adjourns and the Speaker gets back to his home in Bowling Green where the dog can be cared for under Champs personal supervision.
 A part of the Speakers private of flee has been set aside as a 'mena- gerie' There the weird assortment of "dawGs'' is stationed and carefully guarded. Clark was asked how he expected to move his treasures back to Bowling Green and he suggested that freight car might be necessary. But if the flood of "dawgs" continues until Congress adjourns, it is likely that whole train will have to be pressed into service.
