THE NEVADA HILLS REPORT
Shows Prosperous Condition of
The Great Fairview
Mine.

The annual report of the Nevada
Hills of date of December 81, 1912,
has the following statement from
President Wingfield:
I'VE feel that the past nine
months operations have been very
satisfactory, indeed, the net realiza-
tion for the period being s43S, ,9O9.-
66. The report of March 81, 1912,
showed that the company was in
debted in the sum of $495, 900,
whereas the present report shows
the company to be indebted in the
sum of 100000, and with available
assets that roughly show surplus
of $4,000.
In weighing the item of cost per
ton, attention is respectfully called
to the fact that the property of your
company is situated at a point forty
five miles from any railroad point
which adds materially both to the
expense in the matter of supplies
and in the obtaining of a good class
of labor
The report then says in part:
1.-THE power situation, which in
the past has caused serious Interrupt
ton of work, is now very greatly i'm
proved, since the completion by the
power company of a retaining dam
which will allow them to impound
the rush of water during the early
spring runoff, and at this date it
seems probable that we shall have
continuous power service in the fut-
ure
Being dependent on the mine to
furnish water for milling operations,
there have been times in the past
when production might have been in
creased had additional water been
available. However, the curtailment
of production has not been great
enough in any manner to warrant
the expenditure which would be nec-
essary in order to pipe in water from
the outside. The plans for develop
ment in the neer future include the
sinking of the present shaft, which,
of course, may materially increase
the present supply of water"

.FALLON POST OFFICE BILL
Will Pass Muster in The Senate
With Fair Chances of Be-
coming Law.

Encouragement to Fallon's feder-
al building project was Tended FRI
day by United States Senators Fran
els G.. Newlands and Key Pittman,
who Joined in sending to the Dem
ocratic county central committee, a
wire congratulating the town of Fal-
lon upon the fact that the bill in
troduced by the late United States
Senator George s. Nixon, deceased,
carrying an appropriation of $50, 900
for a federal building in Fallon, had
been referred out by the senate COM
mittee with a favorable recommend
alton for its passage. In the opin-
ion of our senators the bill will pass
the senate without further opposi-
tion.
Fortune seems to have favored
this bill in that a congested calen-
dar necessitated the postponement
of action on many other like matters
before the senate body.
Ii will still remain for the bill to
pass the lower house and then re-
ceiye the presidents signature.

PIUTE NARROWED IN CAPITAL
Robert Dale Finds Travelling Ex-
pensive And Awaits Funds
From Tribe.

The members of the local Piute
colony are much disturbed. 1t all
comes about through an omission of
their mathematician in figuring the
expenses of Robert Dale, recently
dispatched to Washington with list
mule, to include in Roberts purse
funds for a return ticket. 1t seems
that Dale. who is a young man of
about % SHOWS, Is endowed with
some education; also some crust"
He persuaded the local Piutes that
they should each give him enough
form an aggregate sum that would
land him in Washington, figuring
the while that the white dads away
back In the nations capital would
listen to his grandiloquence fall on
his neck and weep and then banquet
him la moving picture style.
But what was figured and what
has really happened are two differ
ent things. Dale finds himself ma
rooned back in Washington, and un-
less he is versatile enough to be-
come acquainted with side door Pull
man cars, he will probably remain
there until another crop of pine nuts
is harvested, for real coin in the To-
cal Indian colony Is scarce and being
out of sight now, Dale is very large
ly out of mind as well. In all prob
ability, this ambassadorial mission
will be lingering remembrance so
long as he lives.
Truth to tell Dale became dissatis-
fed with the management of Indian
School Superintendent W. A. Van
vorhies, than whom there could be
no more sincere worker in the In
dian service, and with the aid of in
dividual contributions attempted to
take some things over Mr.. Vanvor-
hies head. But malcontents among
Indians are about as well classified
back in Washington as counterfeit
ers are by the secret service, and a
disciplined government service takes
cognizance of many things that did
not occur to the childish mind of
Robert Dale.

THE MATTER OF CIVIC DUTY
Is Incumbent Upon Good Com
mu nifty Citizenship And Helps
The Town.

The householder who has the
same degree of consideration for his
neighbor as he would have his
neighbor manifest towards himself
is a rara avis. To be sure we find
one occasionally. but there are so
many of the other kind between
these occasional discoveries that We
feel called upon to indict few
words to the man who considers 1t
his God given right to act upon any
impulse that presents itself without
figuring the rights of others. Some
local property owners, suffering
from a surging wave of energy and
forgetting how their individual
handiworks may appear in COM
munity sense, install in their yards
what is plainly nuisance in neigh
borhood sense. For instance will
those of the towns residents who
maintain lob lolly corrals let us
know what kind of town we would
have If every resident in Fallon took
unto himself the same privilege,
Pursuing the subject further, what
kind of town would Fallon be if
back yard half dozen hives of bees.
Probably uninhabitable to be sure.
What kind of a town would Fallon
be If the same fragrant disregard in
the matter of home cleanliness and
general Identification that is ex-
hibited by many was general? What
kind of town would Fallon be If
every owner of property should re-
fuse or neglect to plant trees along
his property line or shrubbery with
in his yard? How is Fallon to be an
ideal residence town without a sin
cere awakening to the Importance of
two things in the main: first the
rights of your neighbor; second each
property owners duty in civic
sense to his community.
Talking recently with a new
conner, the mans first impressions of
Fallon were interesting. He said:
Your country is q whole lot better
than your people. l walked around
/ Fallon at spare moments and And
such a general lack of lawns and
yard ornamentation to say nothing
of lack of cleanliness that l am
| forced to this conclusion. Had not
! found yards with shrubbery and
lawns. l might conclude otherwise,
but with excellent lawns, fine trees
and a multitude of flowers that
bloom in season, l must find less
fault with Fallon than with the folks
who live therein
And upon thinking over the mat
ter we must give this man the palm.
He Is right.

Several Legislative Acts of Gen.

vadans.

Up In the state legislature the
disciples of Bacchus find fighting for
a measure that might restore gambl-
ing in certain parts of the state by
means of local option clause to the
gambling law, a futile proposition.
Ii is said that the conservative ele-
ment far outnumbers the element in
the legislature that would run riot
and raise the lid for licensed gamb-
ling. 1t Is said that thet local option
gambling bill will be allowed to die
in committee and that later on an at
tempt will be made to modify the
present law in some other manner.
Governor Tasker l.. Oddie has
signed the Barnes Amendment to
ly enacted. 1t will go into effect
