WORKING FOR THE
GREAT NEVADA HIGHWAY
Land County Taking a Lively In
terest In the Work For Model
Auto Road

Austin Reveille: II am convinced"
said Senator j. A. Miller to a Reveille
representative, "that Churchill, Lander.
Eureka and White Pine Counties will
work in unison for the construction of a
model automobile road touching at
Ely, Eureka. Austin, Fsllon and n.
Meeting with the Reno road in Washoe.
II believe Governor Oldie did right
in vetoiug the numerous so-called road
bills, because there would have been
clear injustice resulting upon people
remote from the proposed roads. l be-
lieve the Governor pointed out the prop
er way for the counties to proceed with
road improvement. This was to Issue
bonds and sell them to the State. the
State using the school moneys in the
purchase of these bonds. This money
can be secured b the counties at 5 per
cent, which Is a higher rate than is now
received by the State. Counties Jan.
not get money ct a cheaper rate any
where else. This added interest will
go bach to the counties as an increase
in the school apportionment allotments.
II am in favor of the movement to
establish and maintain through Lander
County our portion of the great nation
al highway for automobiles. | think
we should employ. through our Commits
s~ioners. a competent engineer to make
q reconnaissance of the roads across the
county for the purpose OF making esti.
mates of money that would be needed
to put the road in good permanent con-
dition. Then the Commissioners would
rave definite knowledge of what sum
the county should be bonded for and
the people could act accordingly. l am
satisfied the people want this improve
ment. and that our Commissioners
would be derelict if they do not carry
out the desires of the people at this time.
1.-THE people of Battle Mountain and
vicinity are interested in q road TO con-
meet with the improved highway
planned by Elko and Humboldt Ooun
ties. The Lander County section up
that way should be surveyed by the Gu.
gineer employed. and assistance given by
the county to our enterprising northern
n%eighbors. The outlay for road build
ing does not have to be made at once,
but the road facts should be in the files
of the Commissioners so hat right ac-
ZION could be taken at the right time.
working together with the other
counties mentioned. the movement will
attract lively attention through Utah,
Wyoming and Colorado, and will lead
to an annually increasing travel through
our part of the State"
Helping out this interest in the Me-
vada Highway in Lander County comes
Eureka and White Pine. Assembly
man Harris has been invited to be pres
ent at the next meeting Of the Eureka
County Commissioners. where also will
be representatives from Ely to aid in
formulating a road policy that will
mean much for the future Of this State.
The people Of the north end of Lander
should have representation at the May
meeting of the Lander County Commits.
s~ioners, and Austin business men should
make it a point to be present and assist
the members in reaching a quick con.
c~lusion upon this important matter.

COMSTOCk PUMPING TROUBLES
More Wordy War IL on Tap Again
Among Mining Officials


Among Mining Officials
The Pumping war has been renewed
on the Comstock as the Pumping Asso-
citation has emphatically declined to ac-
cept the terms offered by the Mexican
Company. An open letter published in
the San Francisco and Oomstock papers
is TO the effect that the Association il
satisfied with its present manager. A. f.
Coffin, and declines to fire him as sug.
Rested by Superintendent Symmes.
The letter declares that Symmes is an
extravaganza and incompetent manager
and that he ran the company in debt.
The letter further states that the Mexi.
a Company cannot withdraw from the
Association as the contracts are SC
worded that the company will have to
contribute its pro rata of pumping ex.
penses.
In all IL is a hot reply to the Symmes
people, and the war has been renewed.
So far there has been no direct reply &c
the charges set forth in the Symmei
letter published some time ago. in
which he charged a number of Sau
Francisco brokers. who are in control
of the old mines, with all kinds Of
crookedness.

NEW TRACY IS
 NOW AT LARGE

BINGHAM, Mich. Nov 90. - A hishWayman. bandit and desperad1 named Lopez who. evidently read many dime n vels and is attempting and is terrorizing this district It is believed that he has at last been 6ornered as he took refuge ill q coal mine.
 Deputy Sheriff Sorenson the only suryiv r of the sheriff's party of four who pursued Lopez entered the minC Singlehanded in an effort to bring the bandit to time The two men culd be seen in the passages of the mine at intervals and they looked like nigger babies in the semi-dark ness. Lopez shouted that he would make record that would exceed that of Tracy, the notorious Wash ington state bandit and defied his pursuers to capture him.
 As it was seen that to pursue Lo- peg in the mine was hazardous and probably unfruitful the mine has been blockaded and it is believed that the bandit can be reed to give in through starvation. How ever it is reported that the des perado has used the mine as a re fuge before and that he has large store of supplies cached under ground
