p A. McCarren, whose likeness APP.
pears with this article. was born and
reared in Washoe county and is the
son of one of the pioneers of the
State Commencing life as poor
boy he worked his way through the
public school and the Nevada State
University. Having read law by him
self, in 1905 he was admitted to the
bar by the Supreme Court of the
State, and his career as a practitioner
in the various courts in this State is
well Known to every citizen OF Neva
da His friends are numbered by
thousands, and even those who have
never met him speak OF him in the
highest terms.
In 1900, Mr.. McCarren, having cast
his lot in southern Nevada, was elect
ed District Attorney OF Nye county
at time when the affairs of that
county required a man of integrity
and ability for their administration,
The high regard in which he was held
by the people of that county, is best
estimated by the fact that by unani
nous vote of their legislative dele
CATION, they raised his salary from
two thousand $4,000 dollars, to
seven thousand five hundred (I500)
dollars per annum. The highest sal
airy ever paid to a public official in
the State of Nevada.
That his ability was recognized and
his integrity held high by some OF
the great men of this State, is best
evidenced by the fact that at the ere
alton of the 5th Judicial District in
southern Nevada, Governor John
Sparks rendered to Mr.. McCarren the

farms in this section of Nevada and
comprises some sixty thousan | acres,
Moffat & Company have been using
the farm the past couple of years as
a feed station for their cattle. 1t

be the return game, the smelter boys
having won the first game with Yer
