Organized for the purpose of develop
ing the agricultural resources of Humboldt
valley by conservation and use of the
waste and unused waters
Ten years ago, the U. S. Geological
Survey said there was sufficient water in
the valley to irrigate 10000 acres of land.
Today, the Commissioner of Industry
Agriculture and Irrigation says there are
only $4,000 acres of land under irri-
CATION in the valley.
The profits that will return from recIa-
nation OF even part of that extra land
Tor which there is water will be very large.
This is the largest and most important
irrigation project in Nevada, and about the
only large one left in the United States not
exploited.
The returns to stockholders will be very
large, and land owners and present water
users who take stock will receive benefits
not granted under any other project.
1t is expected that every person inter
eSted in the future prosperity of Humboldt
valley, or who wants good investment,
will take stock in this company.

Nevada democrats have prize
worth fighting for in the United
States senatorship. The control of
the senate after March 4tb may
depend upon the vote Of the Unitd
States senator to be elected from
this state in November. If
Senator Massey should win, his vote
might defeat all democratic
measures in the senate. If Key
Pittman wins he would vote for
democratic measures. Democrats
should study this matter and stand

WASHINGTON. July l2.-Thc impea CHI

No decision has been reached by the
senators as TO who shall preside over the

CHAT IN AND WATKINS
LEAD FORLORN HOPE
BY International News Service.

by International news service,
ATLANTIC CITY, n. j., July l2.-
After a three-day session marked by
tumultuous scenes and factional strife
that threatened to split the party in
twain, the delegates of the National
Prohibition convention nominated Eu.
gene W. Chafin of Illinois and Arizona
for president and Aaron 8. Watkins
of Ohio for vice president, early to-
night. Chafin and Watkins headed the
party in the 1905 campaign
The end of the convention was, how.
ever, astonishipgly harmonious, consid-
ering the acrimonious debates that have
marked its early meetings. This was
largely due to the fact that the presi-
deucy of the party is regarded in the
hearts Of the delegates an honorary po-
sition only and also that a. forfeit of
$500 would accrue if the convention
lasted longer than $50 tonight,
The delegates therefore used every
eXpedient to ruAh the business and the
nominating speeches were begun almost
before the members of the convention
had taken their seats after the invoca-
tion this afternoon.

NEW YORK. July 12.-The threat
that the longshoremen handling freight
