NYE COUNTY MAY Be
CARVED NEXT JANUARY

Nye county stands an excellent
chance of losing a portion of its
vast acreage at the coming session
of the Legislature. The residents
Of the extreme eastern end of the
county are anxious to have their
territory annexed to White Pine,
as ii Is more convenient to transact
business in Ely than in Tonopah.
In speaking Of the agitation that is
now being started, the Ely Record
as the following TO say:
James Riordan of White River
Valley in Nye county. spent
several days in his city during
the present week, and states that
practically all residents of the
lower White River Valley, and
those of Currant Creek and the
Duck Water country, are very
anxious to be cut off from Nye
and annexed to White Pine during
the coming session of the legisla-
ture. Their reasons for desiring
the change are that they are locat-
c1 from $50 to 200 miles from
Ionopah, the county seat, which
they seldom visit. They do their
business in Ely which Is the market
for their supplies.
Riordan states that all the resi-
dents of the sectors named will
sign petitions to the Legislature
praying to be annex d to White
Pine, and that it is probable a com
mittcc Of citizens of those sections
will attend the legislature and
work for the passage of the pro-
posed bill. for which they will
have the united support Of the del
egalion this county.

RABBIT DEVELOPED NEW NAIL

of enterprising rabbits were
introduced into Australia. To-Day
the increase of these immigrants
may he counted by the millions.
They became a pest to the country.
Fortunes have been spent to cxtcr-
minat, then. Wire fences many
feet high and thousands of miles
long have been built to keep out
the invaders.
The rabbits had to fight awful
odds to live, but they have now
outHIttcd man. They have devel-
opcd a ne~ nail-a nail by which
they ran retain their hold on the
fence while climbing. With this
same nail they can burrow six
on eight inches under the netting
and thus enter the fields that mean
food and life to them. They are
now laughing at man. Reserve
power has yitalizeu for these
rabbits latent possibilities. be-
cause they did not tamely accept
thejr condition, but in their
struggle to live learned how to
live.-Animal's Friend.

don't think he collected ten cents

no money. That is a very bad
law and if our representative can
not make any better law than that
they had better stay at home.

killed in two days. All the papers
