FACTORY WILL REMAIN HERE
This Is Text of Telegram Re-
ceived Yesterday By Hon.
Thos. Golf.

to contribute a substantial portion
to the material prosperity of the
community and state. Nevada has
been placed on probation for at least
one more season, in order that the
most complete demonstration may
be made of our ability to do or not
to do in a beet sugar sense. This
Is the text of telegram received
yesterday by State Senator Thomas
Dolf from |. H. Kent, who is the
spokesman who journeyed back to
Bay City, Mich, recently to inter-
cede with the majority stock
holders on behalf of the people of
this county and state and that his
trip was not without avail is plainly
shown by the following message.
Bay City. Mich. 1-13-13,
Mr.. Tom Dolf,
Fallon. New.
at has been arranged satisfactor-
lily to leave the factory at Fallon
this year. Have practically guaran-
teed thirty thousand tons of beets."
|. H. KENT.
For nearly a week after their ar
rival in Bay City. Messrs. Fred and
Henry Hinze and l. H. Kent were
compelled to await the return of Mr..
Bailey, the representative of the in
terests holding control in the factory
affairs. And for nearly week Mr..
Kent cogitated. outlined arguments
in his mind and with the opportunity
to deliver himself, he made 1t plain
that every business precept demand
ed the retention of the Fallon fac
tory. He argued for two days and
he pleaded, He showed the vital
ness of the factory to our commun-
ity life and likewise committed this
section to the growing of a sufficient
tonnage of beets to make the factory
paying proposition And that con-
viction came from his representa-
tions is patent when the results are
known.
If the factory is of value to Fallon
and 1t is without doubt. then the
men who went east have performed
a real service and will be entitled to
credit for the prosperity that has
been the subject of our waking
thoughts for two years. And by the
same line of reasoning every busi-
ness man and every farmer in the
valley is entitled to a degree of
credit for rallying to the support of
the factory. But few who do not
know the blow that would be dealt
with the factory's removal and the
resultant consequences.
In his overtures to the Michigan
stockholders Mr.. Kent represented
that Nevada would raise a minimum
of 10000 tons of beets during the
coming growing season; that this
tonnage with its remarkably high
per centage of sugar contents would
return a greater profit than 10000
tons from a Michigan section, and
that as the years pass by the annual
beet crop returns would be ever in
creasing; that the indomitable men
of this community who gave from
their substance some $4,000 were
entitled to further consideration
and that Nevada would not be long
in taking rank as a great sugar pro-
ducing state, through its wonderful
beet sugar growing potentialities.
And now with a probationary per-
iod facing us, it is up to everyone
in this and nearby sections to give
the factory the very best that is
within them Ii is up to them to do
this because Fallon will not be alone
in sharing the results of beet sugar
manufacturing. A practical demon
stration here will undoubtedly result
in a chain of factories over the state
and Nevada stands in woeful need of
industries. The soil of this state
has been tested for sugar beet grow
ing to that degree that proves con-
clusively that it is excelled by no
place in the world in the purity and
percentage of sugar in it's beets. The
late manufacturing campaign has
proven as well that The juices of our
beets make real sugar of the finest
quality. And 1t has been shown that
beet growing returns attractive prof
its to the farmers. 1t still remains
to be shown whether Nevada's agri-
culturists and business men can CO.
operate to degree that will make
the factory profitable, but the re-
sponsibility now rests with us, and
Nevadans can be depended upon,
now that they are thoroughly alive,
to completely fulfill their end of the
contract.
Let us make the year 1913 a
memorable, profitable and epoch
making period!
