REFUSED WRIT TO
NAVAL DESERTER

Judge Coleman of this city, who is
holding court in Reno for Judge Nor
an. remanded Triphon Landafs last
Wednesday to the custody of Chief
of Police Hillhouse, thereby refusing
to perpetrate the writ of habeas cor
pus sued out by the alleged navy de-
serter. Lieutenant Joe Johnson left
for the coast Thursday with the
prisoner intending to turn him over
to the custody of the navy officers at
Mare Island.
1t is rumored that the habeas
corpus proceedings were resorted to
more to gain time than for any other
reason. Landais is said to be a sub
ject of the republic of France. and
efforts, have been made, it is said,
to induce the French consul at San
Francisco to interest himself in the
case.
The habeas corpus writ vas ask
ed for on several grounds. One was
that Landais was not the man sought
Another was that there was no war
rant in the hands of the arresting
officer, and a third was that while
there is a provision for the surrender
of deserters from the army, there is
none in case of deserters from the
navy. The last point was overthrow
by the presentation of federal statu-
ties authorizing the detention of navy
deserters by peace OFFICERS.
Landais, arrest followed the secur-
ing of a divorce by him in Reno. He
was under suspieioun for about two
weeks before he obtained the divorce
and then when decree came, ending
the reason for his presence, he was

The Amalgamated Nevada Mines

stem district, closed down in May of

certainly hoped that matters will be
cleared up and this promising prop
erty allowed to resume.
The resources of this great state
are as yet In their infancy. When we
stop to think of the hundreds of
miles of mountain ranges within its
borders, showing their m~ineralized
groupings indisputable evidence of
almost inexhaustable quantities of
ore of various kinds, character and
values; standing as invitingly as they
have all through the ages. and yet
untrodden and untouched by the gold
hunters.

ranges. are also the fertile valleys

settlers and the home builder.
A prosperous future for Nevada is
inevitable. 1t has doubled its popu-
lation within the decade beginning
with the year 1900 and ending with
1903; has increased its metal pro-
duction nearly eightfold within that
period and it is safe to predict that
the same strides of prosperity will
continue throughout the present and
future decades, and possibly at a
greater pace, until one may look back

AgricuT in Nevada.

Public opinion regarding Nevada
is beginning TO repeat the change
from a belief that the state was yalu-
able only for its mineral products 10
a knowledge that agriculture will
prove to be its most permanent and
valuable asset. We say repeat"
because the same change Of opinion
has been wrought as to nearly every
western state n by one.
Nevada has a range Of climate
greater than that of any other state
or territory with the single excep-
ton of California. which covers 500
miles of the Pacific seaboard. Its
northern boundary is the same as
that of Pennsylvania and it extends
as far south as the northern boun-
daries of Mississippi, Alabama and
Georgia. Northern Nevada has
moderate winters and temperate sum-
mers. and a growing season extend
ing from the middle of April to Dc
tiber. Southern Nevada is semi
tropical, its climate resembling that
of Utah Dixie.
Great Valley Acreage.
Far from being a state without ag-
ricultural possibilities. its arabic and
irrigable valley lands alone total 1S,-
900 900 acres, an area equal to that
of New Hampshire. Massachusetts,
and Rhode Island. Then there are
40, 000,0 900 acres more of hills un-
suitable for irrigatiin, but ex-
cellent grazing land, and arabic at
least In part by dry farming methods.
This equals the combined areas of
New Hampshire. New Jersey.
Vermont and Indiana. 1t is true that
there Is another area which is ap-
~parently worthless for agriculture,
but this is a comparatively small part
of the state, though the traveller go

state al OF the same sort. Yet for
1911 Nevada stood third among the

potatoes. third for oats and second
for hay. That is a wonderful record,
equaled by no other state, and it

FARMING TO Be

LETTER OF NATIONAL COPPER
BANK SAYS AGRICULTURE
WILL BE STATES MOST
VALUABLE ASSET.

The trade and financial letter
issued by the National Copper bank
is as follows:
Trade with foreign countries in
1911 has been unprecedented, owing
to the phenomenal exports. The De-
cember figures were the highest ever
record for a single month. There
has been a distinct improvement in
the steel business and cotton ship
ments continue heavy, forming a
considerable part of the volume of
exports. Money is plentiful in the
centers. On the other hand, there is
being experienced in the east a good
deal of dullness in most lines of mer-
chandising. and the railroads are
feeling the effect somewhat. Yet
local conditions continue to improve.
Industrial disturbances, though they
reach all parts of the nation to some

Money is easy, collections are better
