Making Things Known

THE first cry OF every neWspa-
per in the land is to let the world
know what you have for sale, it other
words advertise. Through the me-
dunn OF the newspaper more merchant
disc is sold every day than would be
possible without this aid.
1t is the same proposition with
Nevada and her eSources. This STAG
has as much to offer the world fOr
investment as any section under the
sun. If the man with money Is look
ing for investment in a mining way
is to be found in Nevada. There is
practically evry metal of value to be
found in the state. 1t often needs
development. \ little advertising OF
ten brings the result.
Probably the feature that really
needs advertising in Nevada is her
AGRICULTURAL possibilities. The old es-
tablished farm, with its big acres and
water rights, are lot often for sale.
1t is the naked land. that without the
abundance OF water on the surface
that can be put to use. The Publicity
Bureau OF this state is en~deavoring
to call attention to this matter, II
assisted it can succeed. ii handicap
ped it will fail. 1t is an established
office and needs the assistance. Late
ly the office has issued a call on the
farmers to supply them with certain
statistics. If it is done it will help.
No one officer, or one office can pro
mote real advertising without assist
ance.
There is a lot doing in Nevada Al
the moment and this ii properly plac-
ed before the reading public vii!
bring the settlers. 1t is the man with
the dollars to invest in land and who
comes to make his home that is need
ed. The commission, if supplied with
data, with land facts and with the CO.
operation OF the people can make the
things hum agriculturally, The idea
is to let things be known, to tell the
rest of the Nevada people what :
possible, and by judicious advertising
i. can be done. Nevada has doubled
her population in the past ten years.
It can be more than doubled again
in the next five with all hands drop
ping the hammer and helping boost
the good things that are possible.

Cost of the Strike

NEWSPAPERS at Patterson, n.
j., have been figuring up the total
cost OF the strike at the silk mills in
that place, which has ended in the
failure OF the strikers after a smut
down of D weeks. 1t is figured that
the workers have lost $5.5OO,OOO in
wages and the manufacturers have
lost Sl,OOO.OOO i'll profits. Twenty
one places OF business were forced %
close through the strike. Merchants
and landlords throughout the city ex-
tended credit to the strikers and will
lost part OF this mount. if not the
most of it.
No attempt is made to figure the
suffering and distress resulting from
the strike, nor the wrecked homes
and ruined lives. It is safe to say
that every resident OF the city was a
loser and nobody was a gamer. That
Is the usual result OF strikes.
If you ever drink or smoke. drop IN
at the Sacramento and call for Just
what YOU like

MURDER IS CHARGE
OF CORONER'S JURY

Mason City, Oct. Murder is the
charge lodged against Mrs. Ada HOl-
comb Burgess, after the coroner's jury
had made a pretty thorough examina-
ton into all the circumstances con-
nected with the case. Her confession
was that she poisoned her child but
was compelled to do so by threats on
her life by Louis Chirikos. The child
mother, who is now to appear on this
charge, is only 10 years Of age, while
her husband, Almond B. Burgess is 81.
He was veterinary surgeon at Am
boy, Mimi, where his people as we'll as
his wife's people resided. He also was
in the employ of the government as a
rural mail carrier. Burgess had been
married twice. He was infatuated with
Miss Halcomb and prior to their mar
riage he brought her to Rockwell and
for some time she stayed with his
mother. In September, 1912, Burgess
moved on a farm then tenanted by
Louis Chirikos, and worked the farm.
In short time he took Miss Holcomb
on the farm and they lived together as
man and wife. Finally they decided to
get married and on March 81 last the
wedding ceremony was performed In
July following child was born.

wealthy slave owner. McCampbell and

| ton owned by John McCampbell, q
! wealthy slave owner. McCampbell anG
his wife occupied the two-story log
house which still stands on the farm
and which will be the headquarters OF
the coon clubs guests, and to the
north of the house stood twenty or
more log cabins which sheltered the
slaves owned by McCampbell.
The plantation was the rendezvous
of all the sportively inclined in those
days. A half-mile race track and a
g-andstand were erected on the farm !;
cock pits and dog pits were numerous
and interesting indeed are the accounts
of the old residents of the many con-
tests of strength and endurance that
we're staged here and attended by
slave owners from all parts Of the
state.
With the coming of the war. the Nc.
Campbell fortune dwindled. The race
horses were sold, the cock and dog pits
were emptied. Union soldiers raided
the plantation and burned the big
amphitheater, and the negro huts dis
appeared before the blast of the ele-
nlents. The aristocratic master of the
plantation married a second time, and
a few years later died. His widow is
now spending her last days on the
Randolph county poor farm at Hunts
vile.
The officers Of the coon club have
contracted with a motion picture con-
cern to take pictures of the three days
hunt. Pictures also will be taken OF
the visitors arriving in Moberly to at
tend the hunt. The line of march of
the hunters over the principal streets
of Moberly will be shown. Mayor
Rolla Rothwell, delivering the speech
Of welcome to the hunters at Tame
hill park, will be shown in one of the
films. The horses, dogs, coons, pos
sums, foxes, lady hunters, dis
tinguished visitors, automobile parade,
visiting newspaper men, ETC., will find
a place in the pictures.
At the camping ground will be shown
the hunters preparing to take the trail.
The commissary tent and the rows or
tables where, it is thought. more than
1 1000 visitors will be fed, will be pho
togra Pied. The hunt by the ladies, the
return to camp, preparing the game
for the table and every incident Of the
three days hunt will be featured in
the movies.
Noted Men Invited.

reception for the guests OF the club
will be held on the camp grounds and

INTERURBAN MEN
VISIT IOWA CITY

Iowa City, Oct. What is regarded
as an altogether significant move is the
fact of Col. BOWS, head Of the Cedar
Rapids and Iowa City Interurban COM
pany, and August Steffen, a represen-
tative Of the United Light and Power
company, being in the city Saturday
These two men, who have the pow
er, between them Of moving the mil
lions of capital behind their respective
companies, are believed to be here for
the purpose of considering taking over
either the Davenport-Iowa City or the
Muscatine interurban lines.
Frank Tanner has been in confer
ence with these two men, but beyond
saying that they are here for the pur-
pose Of investigating the two lines
named above, he will say nothing.
