Several years ago, to be more
correct, in 1906 and 1907, a scheme
was on foot and at the time bore
every evidence of being brought to
successful fruition, of locating a big
colony of Jewish people on an inn
mense tract of land in southern Ne
vada, but the panic coming as it did
with its closing of banks and con-
sequent shortage of money, put an
end to the deal.
Now, however, the Jewish Pro
gressive Farmers Association OF
America, a nationwide organization
has taken the matter up with Ne
vada State authorities, and seeks in
this state a place where it can To-
cate colony of its people. Core
spondence is now passing between
the parties concerned. and Judging
from the interest manifested, it may
result in locating number of Jew
ish people in the state.

spondence exchanged, the first be-
ing letter to DR.. Stubbs of the
State University by Isador Mar

The only damage done was the de-
struction of the engine pilot and the
shaking up Of passengers, but rail-
