ARTES|AN WATER IN
RAILROAD VALLEY

While drilling in an ancient lake
bed in endeavor to discover potash
of commercial grade. the Railroad
Valley Saline company encountered
artesian water at depth 2s5 feet,
the flow carrying from nine to one
hundred inches a second, and attain
ing a height of about six feet above
tho surface.
The discovery of pure water Is
regarded as highly encouraging by
d. II. Walker. superintendent of the
company, who arrived last Monday
afternoon by auto from the COM
pany's possessions in Railroad valley
because 1t demonstrates that the
theories of James II. Hance and f.
f. Free are correct.
They predicted that explorations
would prove the truth of their con-
tentions that pure water would be
struck before the saline solution had
been reached for the reason that the
clay beds, are impervious to the
water and prevents 1t from percolat-
ing further into the earth.
Hance and Free asserted that the
potash salts will be found In the
water at the bottom of the old lake
bed because they are more easily dis
solved, and were collected ages be-

No Indictment
by Grand Jury
FELONY CHARGE is
IGNORED, MOWER WILL BE
TAKEN TO CHERRY CREEK
AND TRIED ON MINOR CHARGE

The grand jury of White Pine
county which convened Wednesday
morning, after recess of two weeks
ignored the charge of assault with a
deadly weapon which had been pre-
ferred against E. P. Mower, a barber
at Cherry Creek, who became involv-
ed in a quarrel about a month ago
with Charles Sing, restaurant keep
er at the same place. The individual
members were unwilling to return an
indictment for an offense of this ma
ture, and felt certain that the evil
dence adduced at the examination
justified the dismissal of the defen-
dant The report was submitted to
Judge Coleman Wednesday after
noon.
Mower was not released from GUS
tody, as a warrant was sworn out for
his arrest for assault and battery,
Charles Sing being the complaining
witness. The accused will be taken
to Cherry Greek tomorrow by one of
the attaches in the sheriff's Office,
where he will be given a preliminary
hearing before Justice of the Peace
j. H. Leishman. District Attorney
MeFadden will prosecute the case on
behalf of the state.
An indictment had been previously
returned against Mower by the grand
jury at former session for the
crime of assault and battery Defen-
dant's demurrer to the Indictment
was sustained by Judge Coleman, be-
cause the offense charged was mis-
demeanor instead of a felony. The
court declared that the grand jury
had exceeded its authority in bring
ing in the true bill against Mower.
He refused to dismiss the defendant
at that time, remanding the case to
the grand jury for further consider
alton.
The following composed the jury:
j. H. Gallagher. H. p. Cryst, Fred
West, l.. NJ. Jackson. III. N. Byrne,
Peter st. Peter, R. S. Durkee, ]. H.

DISTANCE HAS
BEEN REDUCED
THROUGH EFFORTS OF G. s.
HOAG. AUTO ROUTE BETWEEN
ELY AND TONOPAH HAS BEEN
SHORTENED FORTY-TwO MILES

Through the efforts of G.. S. Hoag,
secretary of the Ely Commercial
League, the auto route between Ely
and Tonopah has been shortened
forty-two miles. The construction
of new road across the potash fields
by the Railroad Valley Saline COM
pany has been materially responsible
for reducing the distance between
this city, and the wonderful silver
camp. The latest log between the
two towns, which has just been pre-
pared by Mr.. Hoag indicates that the
shortest available route is 1887
miles.
To tourists not familiar with roads
in Nevada, the log aceords all the
necessary information, the distances
between towns being indicated, as
well as places where gasoline, lodg-
ings or meals may be procured.
Blacksmith shops and points where
water can be procured not far from
the regularly travelled road are also
deineated in detail.
Starting from the Northern hotel,
the road passes through Copper Flat
to White river. Currant creek is the
next stopping place. and the new
route leads through Railroad valley.
instead of following the road hereto
fore taken by trans-contincntal torr-
lists. Log Cabin is assigned a place
on the log, the destination being the
Mizpah hotel in Tonopah.
The proposed road is said to be in
first class condition for automobiles.
with the possible exception of the
Currant Greek summit, where ex-
tensive repairs are being instituted.
Autoists claim that the trip between
Ely and Tonopah can be made in
eight Ut nine hours over the new
route.
The Ely Commercial club has
brought to the attention of the Salt
Lake boosters that it would be ad-
visable for them to have the route
between the two places properly log
ged for the benefit of thousands of
tourists who will cross the continent
during he next three years on their
way to the Panama International ex-
position in San Francisco. The Salt
Lake Commercial club will un-
doubtedly lend its assistance to-
ward placing sign boards at various
points. besides placing water and gas
oline stations. in addition to sleeping
and eating quarters along the route.
II such a procedure were really
necessary.
