GREATNESS OF THE
GREAT LAKE PORTS

Upon the five Great Lakes there
throbs commerce that well might be
the envy of any far-reaching sea. To
put the thing concretely, the freight
portion of this commerce alone reach
ed tremendous totals in 1912. In the
navigation months of this last year
exactly 7,435,477 tons of iron ore and
an even greater tonnage of coal NOV
ell upon the lakes, while the enormous
total of 15S,000,000 bushels of grain
were received at the port of Buffalo.
In 1911 the shipping of the lakes felt
sharply the "poor grain crop" of
1910, and the slight reaction in both
the steel and the copper markets.
Whole fleets of vessels rusted their
very hearts out in the harbors of Buff
falo and the other great ports of the
lower lakes. But the business of the
lakes seems to increase at the rate of 7
per cent annually, and 1912 more than
held its own. Traffic grows fast upon
the great water highways of the new
world. Already the tonnage of Cleve-
land, Ohio, is comparable with that of
Liverpool, and vet there are tens of
thousands of sailors upon the salt seas
who have never even heard of Cleve.
land. Detroit boasts that in the sea-
son of eight months of open naviga-
tion tonnage ten times that which
the full year gives to the Suez canal

river that bears her name-Edward

1.-THE GREAT DIVIDE AT
NIXON MONDAY EVENING

Monday night the Porter Stock
company plays "The Great Divide
at the Nixon opera house. The story
of the play has been published in so
many magazines that it is known to
nearly everyone. For four years on
the road and long runs in Yew York
and Chicago Mr.. Henry Miller had
with it a play that established him as
Americas IS greatest actor. How man
changes when a great deal of money
and love come into his life after he
has barely existed is one phase of this
great plays story. 1T keeps one spell
bound until the final curtain and
makes the impression come that it was
a play worth while
That the time between acts, when
new stage settings are being made,
may not drag, Mr.. Porter carries with
him two splendid vaudeville acts. One
of them has been heard here before
Clayton and Earl. Miss Clayton has a
powerful and sweet contralto and Mr.
Earl sweet tenor. The harmony
they get from songs would be de-
light to the composers. Miss Addie
Dunbar presents the other act. She is
musical comedy favorite. Her man
ner of singing songs make audiences
ask for more. There is splendid
evening in store for theatregoers when
this company appears.

ELKO THANKS wINNEMUCCA
FOR HELPING SECURE SCHOOL

No battle is ever won without fight.
Elko county crossed swords with the
rest of the state and came out victor
ious in the location of the Industrial
school. Reno and Winnemucca, su-
perbly backed by the Nixon Wingfeld
interests, put up heroic fight and
won the plaudits of the state by their
chivalry and up and up fairness.
While Elko is proud of her victory,
she bears the sears of conflict which,
instead of being sanguinary, are
financial.
The financial part of the transae-
tion, as in all kinds of modern war
fare, is an aftermath of the fight. The
town of Elko is now called upon to
guarantee $4,000 in cold cash before
the $4,000 appropriation by the state
is available. That is the price this
county is called upon to pay for its
great victory and it is worth the
money. 1t will be the best investment
this county has made in all its history.
Assemblyman Fernald, out of pure
generosity, donated ten acres of
ground for the site. Will the citizens
of Elko permit Mr. Fernald to outdo
them in generositye The Independent
answers No-and spells it with big
"N." We would suggest that a pub
lie meeting be called at an early date
to devise ways and means to raise
the money. Here is grand chance
for the Retail Merchants association
and the Development League to get
busy and assist in the building of a
greater Elko.-Independent.

TRADE ". n. Will
RETURN TO CITY

As is well known locally, A Klein
hans is the pioneer merchant of Win
nemucca, coming here in 1869 and con
tinuing in active business until 1902.
He has watched the country develop
from a small beginning to its present
state, and has at all times been in
hearty sympathy with all enterprises
that tended to promote the business
interests of Eastern Nevada. In
speaking to the Silver State of the
proposed construction of the Winnie
mucca Northern railroad, Mr.. Klein,
hans said:
al sincerely hope that this line will
be built. San Francisco has never in
its history financed proposition that
will bring it greater returns than this
road. That city is the natural market
for the entire intermountain country,
occupying the same position to it as
does New York to the east or Chicago
to the middle west. All that is neces-
sary is for San Francisco to supply the
lines of transportation, and the bust
ness will follow.
"In November, 1869, the Central
Pacific was connected up and began
running trains. Winnemucca was one
of the most important stations on the
line. In addition to the town trade,
an empire to the north was supplied
from here, every pound of the freight
coming from San Francisco. The rail
road company erected its large ware
house, which is still standing, but
there developed so much confusion be-
tween the townspeople and the north
ern freighters, that the small ware
house was built for the exclusive ac-
eommodation Of the town trade. The
large building was then turned over
to the northern freighters, and there
was not an hour in the day or day in
the week that il was not surrounded
bv wagons. Corrals and blacksmith
shop were established in the imme-
date vicinity in order to facilitate
the moving of the immense tonnage Of
merchandise.
"From FIVE to seven IL 10 l6-mule
outfits left here daily, loaded with
supplies for the north, and as many
returned. bringing in ore and hides.
OF course. in the early day there was
no agriculture to the north. the eoun-
try being devoted to stock raising.
There was absolutely no market for
grain, but it could be used to fatten
stock, which could be driven in.
'At that time there were three
houses here that made a business of
forwarding, namely, Eli Reinhart n.
Levy & Co. and ID. w. Earl. All did
a thriving business. Supplies were
consigned to these firms by San Fran
cisco merchants and by them forward
ed to Eastern Oregon. Idaho and Mon
tana. But with the building of the
Oregon Short Line, these conditions
were rapidly changed, and it was not
lone before San Francisco lost almost
this entire trade, which was diverted
TO Portland, Ogden. Salt Lake and
other Short Line points.
"But the trade of today, that will
90 TO San Francisco with the construc'
tion of the Winnemucea Northern. is
many times greater than at the time
the Short Line was built. BY building
tbs cutoff il can. within few years,
br developed many fold.

MALL.SIzED STAMPEDE
TO GOlD-(OPPfR STRIKE

Thursday there was small sized
stampede from Winnemucca to point
in the East range, about ten miles
from town, following the rumor that
strike had been made there. Sew
eral autos and teams went out with
loads, and number of men from the
hills had made their way to the place
by various means of transportation.
1t was found that two strikes had
been made, one of gold and the other
of copper, by Ole and Antoine Kenne
berg and Car. Stofeldt. Several fine
looking samples of the ore were
brought to town and left with T. II.
Guyon, at the Wells-Fargo express
Office, where they may be seen.

COUNTY COMMISSIONERS
Will Help BUILD ROADS

AT the meeting of the board of
county commissioners, held the first of
the week, it was agreed among the
members that county aid will be ex-
tended to building the road from Para
disc Valley to National and also to
the road between Winnie
mucea and Golconda. 1t was not
known how much money will be avail
able for the purpose, but the commits
sioners will do the best they can.
Chairman Haviland states that as soon
as the Santa Rosa forest reserve,
which is interested in the Paradise
National road, and the Chamber of
Commerce, looking after the Winnie
Golconda road, are ready, the
county money will be available.
