PANHANDLE WHEAT.

Panhandle wheat statistics for this season en-
bodied in a series of articles just published by the
News from points on the Santa Re railroad north
OF Amarillo cannot be too often read reflect
ed upon. The fgures-personally and carefully
gathered by the travelling staff correspondent of
the News-are absolutely authentic,
From Pampa-up to this morning-four hun
dred and fifty cars of wheat have been shipped
with enough still left in the country to bring the
shipments up to five hundred cars
From Miami three hundred cars have
been shipped. with an assured total of four hun
bred cara
One hundred and fifty wheat cars have been
shipped from Canadian and ffty-six cars from
Panhandle-giving combined whea, marketing
this season from these four northern Panhandle
railroad stations OF eleven hundred and six cars
or one million. hundred and six thousand
bushels OF wheat Calculated on the conservative
basis of eighty cents per bushel in the home mar
ket this eight hundred and eighty four
thousand dollars of farmers wheat money.
In all of the regions of which the four named
points are the shipping centers the wheat acreage
next year will be at least twenty per cent in ex-
cess OF that OF this season. with a very probable
marketing next fall from these stations of over
one and quarter million wheat bushels Large
areas of sod land in these localities will be broken
up this fall and next spring for initial crops of
Milo Maize and Kafr Corn. after which they will
be under wheat culture, to which can be added the
fact that the more familiar the Panhandle wheat
farmer becomes with soil and climatic conditions
and seed wheat selection. the heavier will be his
yields per acre-all of which logically argues that
production in 1914 by the regions around the
stations OF Pampa Miami Canadian and Panhan-
die of aggregate of three million bushels of
wheat is prediction which can very probably be
classed prophecy.

WARNING
Reno. Nevada. Oct. slst,

AnuepenOent, EIkO, New.
We call the special attention of
all true Nevadans to the unfair
campaign made by the republican
press. particularly the Reno Gazette
and the Goldfeld Tribune. dominat-
ed and controlled by the Wingfield
interests. in their attempts to brand
Mr.. Pittman' as railroad man.
The republican press knows that
such statement was proven false
years ago. They know that Mr..
Bartine. the Chairman of the State
Railroad Commission, branded it as
false. They know that Mr.. Pitt
man has always been fought by the
railroad companies. they know
that he is the only candidate for
United States senator who two
years ago publicity denounced the
railroad overcharges and unjust
determinations against the people
of the State of Nevada, and that he
is the only candidate for United
State senator who is now publicly
making a fight against the
ubiquitous hack haul and other
overcharges and unjust discrimina-
tions. They know that Senator
Massey voted favorably to the
railroad companies on the
commerce court and on the amend
ments to the Panama Canal bill,
they know that Key Pittman has
never been employed by nor re-
ceived a cent from any railroad
company and that he has always
ever since he has been in the State
Of Nevada, been suing the railroad
company. We do not know how
far these libelous and deceptive
methods will be approved. No
matter how desperate Senator
Massey's supporters have no right to
resort to such methods. and Senator
Massey should not permit. Wing
field or any other of his supporters
to resort to vilification, libel and
SANDER. We are not charging that
Senator Massey's supporters will
go any further but we issue
warning to the voters against such
methods used at the last moments
before election. Kew Pittman,
Clay Tallman and McCarran have
never resorted and will never re-
sort to personalities and they have
not permitted their supporters or
the democratic press to indulge in
personalities in their behalf. Let
all fair minded men be on guard
against a final broadside of mud
and filth, by our opponents. We
are advised that an attempt will he
made. We cannot believe it but
beware.
Complete victory is ours. Scorn
the last desperate attempt to
poison the electorate. Thanks to all
good men for their protection, as
sistance and advice. Be assured
that we have made clean and
victorious campaign"
Sincerely
Signed c. F.. McInt, sh, d.

be expected at this time to gn into
the abstract business.
There is an abstract company in
Elko county. known as the Title
Guarantee and Trust Company,
Inc, of which w. G. Greathouse is
president and trust officer, and
W. G. Wright is secretary and
manager, and who. as he informed
MIR. Weathers, ESQ MIR. Weathers
Informed the Incpendent), prepar
ed the data for Mr.. Weather's
opponents letter, and which has for
some time past been agitating the
necessity of saving the tax payers
of Elko county large sums of
money, by securing the services of
the Title Guarantee and Trust
Company to furnish a present
ownership map of the land of Elko
county.
Mr.. Willis informs US that the
proposition of this company has at
different times been submitted for.
mally and informally to the con-
sideratiun of the Board of County
Commissioners. and that during
the yeai 1911, complaint. couched
much in the language of Mr..
Weathers' opponents campaign
letter, was presented to the grand
jury. of which Mel. S. Badt. of
Wells, was foreman, and the grand
jury made recommendation that
present ownership maps of Elko
county be secured forthwith.
In fnrtherance of this recon-
mendation, the Title Guarantee
and Trust Company submitted a
proposition to the Board of County
Commissioners of Elko county,
stating that for the sum of $1,000.
10 it would prep are a present
ownership map, ny which scheme
complete taxation of the property
in Elko county may be accom-
plished; and at the meeting, when
this matter was considered by the
Board of County Commissioners,
Mr.. Wright was present.
Mr.. Willis. Chairman of the
Board of County Commissioners,
with the foresight he has always
used in such matters, asked Mr..
Wright if his company would be
willing to enter into a written
contract to discover the total
amount of land claimed to be
missing, and that it they failed to
discover this land, that the county
would receive the map without
cost, and Mr.. Wright replied that
they could not do that, but they
would agree to find less amount ::
and in veiw of the fact that it is
commonly reported that errors
and omissions frequently occur in
abstracts of small blocks of land
prepared by this company it ap.
peared to the Board of County
Commissioners that it would not
be profitable investment for the
county to order the work done
under this offer, and under present
conditions, for il the errors in the
total were in proportion to the
errors that often occur on the
smaller tracts, the map would be
absolutely worthless, and so the
matter was dropped.
This is only one example of
many, in which Mr.. Willis has
exercised the judgment OF a sound
business man. in dealing with
county affairs, and of which the
county at large is uniformed
Any tax payer can verify any
statement in this article with a
little inquiry. We wonder il Mr..
Willis's action in this particular
regard furnishes any motive for
the attacks he has sustained in the
last few days?

difference. are without any value
whatever, the independent will
take up his claim that there ara
over $500 town lots, of more or
less value, escaping taxation.
Mr.. Weather's opponent. in this
campaign literature, refers in
particular to the fact that there
are 1888 unassessed lots in the
Ounscome and Summit additions to
the Town of Gold Circle. These
additions never existed. except on
paper. The land embraced within
them was unpatented mining land,
not subject to taxation. which may
or may not, at the present time, be
in the ownership Of any one. No
particular improvements were ever
placed on these additions which
were plated in the boom days of
Gold Circle, and-all of these have
long since been removed, and for
years the tracts have been alb
solutely uninhabited.
If he assessor of Elku county
vas to assess these lots, and they
we're advertised and sold under q
tax sale, and any one gave any
thing of value for them, Elko
county would be party to
deliberate fraud.
The same condition applies to
many of the lots claimed to be un.
assessed at Tuscarora. Contact,
Proctor, Gold Cirle and other
places.
There is townsite at Toano,
knowna as Peale's Addition to the
Town of Toana. consisting of
several hundred lots and the sale
of which to innocent eastern
parties. has occasioned consider
able scandal and which addition,
Elko county has always refused3 to
recognize. because of the situation,
and, as matter of fact, the tract,
IN the aggregate, would not he
worth the minimum government
prize of $1:25 an acre. These lots,
presumably, are aong the missing
lots Mr.. Weathers' opponent would
put on the roll, to ease the burden
of the other tax payers of Elko
county.
We do not believe there are 3l4
lots in the Town of Elko. unassessed
and if perchance there should
be, without question they are out
side lots, and have practically no
value, and in some cases at least,
have questionable titles.
Again, Is it a fair comparison to
conn are the building and business
lots of town with improvements,
with the outside, unimproved lots,
as was done in the matter of the
Elko and Deeth lots, and use it is
as the basis Of an argument support
ing the alleged charge against Mr..
Weathers.
In spite of all the talk, the fact
remains, that in spite of many
mistakes Mr.. Weathers may possibly
have made in the matter of bis
official duties; he has consistently
raised the valuations of this
county, and in a way not partic-
ularly burdensome: he has by his
assessments provided the county
with the funds necessary to run
II, and Fas protected, as far as
possible, the tax, payers of Elko
county, in the matter of seeing
that they, and Elko cot nty have
not been compelled to pay an un-
just proportion of the taxes tn the
state.
Remember, Mr.. Weathers has
nothing to do with the tax rate,
or the amount of money spent by
the county; his duty is to value
your property for the purpose of
taxation.
