CANDIDATfFOR UNI.
Y[RSITY PRESIDENT

DIR. Victor C. Anderson returned
this morning from short trip to
Reno, and We are pleased to note in
the Reno Gazette that the Doctor is a
candidate for the position of Presi-
dent of the University of Nevada, to
succeed the late DR.. Stubbs.
Doctor Anderson has made his resi-
dence here for the last four or FIVE
months moust of the time looking af-
ter his various interests in this
vicinity and has shown himself to be
a man of sterling worth and the high
est integrity and has made many
friends in this community.
The Doctor was born and raised in
Massachusetts and is a graduate Of
Harvard, was the first member of the
faculty of the Armour Institute of
Chicago and served ten years with
that institution as Dean and acting
tai in putting it on the high plane
that ii stands today.
He was ten years with the Colorado
School of Mines as president and it
was through his efforts that the in
stitution gained it international rep
utation. He increased the enrolment
from 200 to 400 students, increased
the valuation of the property from
$250,000 to $s50.000, securing one
donation of $4,000 from a private in
dividual and has been verv successful
in raising the necessary finances when
needed.
When Andrew Carnegie was plan
ming the Institute for Pittsburg he
asked for the appointment of com
mittee to suggest the best plan for
the foundation of the Carnegie Tnsti-
tutes and Doctor Anderson was ap
pointed on that committee.
He has made three trips abroad to
study conditions in the leading educa
tional centers of the world and from
his experience in these lines he is
without doubt a man unusually well
qualified for the high position to
which he aspires and feel sure that a
man as closely in touch with the in
dustrial as well as the educational in
terests of the west will be a man Of
even greater greater value to the
state of Nevada.

NINE YEARS WILL SEE
STREAMS FULL OF TROUT

Plans to completely restoek al
trout streams and lakes throughout
the national forests of Colorado, Wy
oming and South Dakota, with pc
riod of nine years, are well under
way, as the result of the approval by
the Federal bureau of fisheries of o
plan of operation prepared by the for
est service. The bureau of fisheries
has promised to furnish the neees'
sary fish fry for distribution to the
various forests, the shipments of fry
to be directed to railroad stations
nearest the waters to be stocked sc
that az many streams as possible may
be supplied from a central point. The
planting of all fry will be performed
by forest officers who will keep close
check on the results of the work
According to the estimates of the
forest officers, approximately 20 mil
lion trout fry of the brook, rainbow
blaek-spotted varieties will be needed
to meet the requirements of all the
waters adaptable to the production OF
trout. OF this great number the bu
reau of fisheries is prepared to supply
something ever four and half mil
lion this year and gradually de
creasing number each successive year
for total of nine, at the end o.
which time it is expected that tnt
complete restocking will have beer
accomplished. The estimates are sale
to cover 273 streams and lakes in the
three states.
The restocking of national forest
streams in all states where such for
ests are situated, including those now
being acquired in the White noun
tains and the southern Appalaehians
will be given attention as rapidly a
supplies of fish fry become available
for planting purposes. The foresf
service is admirably organized to car
nv on work of this kind and does st
with practically no interference will
regular activities since the fish mus
be handled with the utmost haste am
frequently during the late evening .
early morning hours. The production
of the existing Federal and state fisl
hatcheries is hardly adequate to NEE
all demands, however, and therefor
the work has to be done in install
ments.

THATCHER PROB
ABLY MISQUOT[D

Carson City special published in
last nights Reno Gazette, says:
In response to inquiries from reg
istration agents, Attorney-General
Thatcher has rendered an opinion
that under section six, chapter one,
revised laws, the notice required to be
published by registry agents should
not be made until 90 days before the
general election; also, all nominations,
whether for state or county Offices,
including independent candidates,
must be made not less than 10 days
prior to the primary election"
1t is probable that Attorney-Gener-
al Thatcher is misquoted as regards
time for fling nomination papers.
Section Z, chapter 3, Primary Election
Laws, provides that all candidates to
be voted for at the September pri-
mary election shall file their papers
not less than 30 davs before the first
Tuesday in September. Under this
section, August l will be the last day
for fling for the primary.
Section. 6, chapter 5, of the Aus
tralian Ballot Law, provides that all
Independent candidates must file their
nomination papers not less than ten
days before the first Tuesday in Sep
tember. Section of the same chap
te- states that an Independent county
candidate. to get his name placed on
the official bollot for the general cleo
tion, must present to the county clerk
petition signed by not less than ten
per cent of the number of voters at
the last preceding election.

REFUSED TO LEAVE TOWN =.
WHILE HIS CHANCE WAS GOOD

This morning, while making his
rounds, Constable Moore noticed a
hobo on the street, with fair-sized
Jag aboard. When about to ar
rest him, the fellow begged off, stat
ing that all he wanted was a chance to
get out of town. AS there is no chain
gang and nothing that can be done
to feed them, the tramp was escorted
across the bridge and told to go on his
way. This afternoon the fellow came
back over town and when discovered
by Constable Moore at about 3
o clock, was "lit up' equal to an
electric headlight, and SASSY He

". P.-SANTA Ff
TRAFFIC COMBINE

The Western Pacific and the Santa
Fe have joined forces and have open
ed traffic war on the Southern Pa
cifc for the fruit, grain and vege-
tables traffic originating in the Sac
ramento valley, says the Herald-Re-
publican. Heretofore the Southern
Pacific has practically had a monopo-
1y of the business, as it has had con-
nections direct for the southern route
and to the east over the Central Pa
cifc.. The Western Pacific has run
through the valley, but was unable to
get the business destined for the
southern route. The Santa Fe and the
Western Pacific have signed a traffic
agreement for the Santa Fe to use
the tracks of the Western Pacific
from Stockton to Sacramento, dis
tance of forty-five miles.
The agreement for the use of the
tracks was signed in San Francisco
on Saturday by A. G. Wells, general
manager of the Santa Fe, and c. M.
Levey, vice-president and general
manager Of the Western Pacific. T.
J. Wyche, chief engineer of the West
ern Pacific, and A. HI. Rollins, general
superintendent of the coast lines of
the Santa Fe system, were present.
For many years the Santa Fe has tried
to get into Sacramento, but has been
blocked by the Southern Pacific.
About two years ago it attempted to
get in with tentative agreement
with the Oakland, Antioch & East
ern, a traction line running from the
Key Route in Oakland to Sacramento
by way of Stockton. The Southern
Pacific and the traction line entered
into an agreement, it is said, whereby
the Southern Pacific agreed not to
wage war on the traction lines sub
urban travel from Oakland mole and
from the Key Route mole. As q con-
sideration the traction line ended the
negotiations with the Santa Fe for
entrance into Sacramento.
George J. Gould has been seeking a
southern outlet for the products of
the Sacramento valley ever since the
Western Pacific was built, but could
not dicker successfully with the Santa
ing so much and the Western Pacific
SO l1Jlic OF t06 cdtTtHcHtO tDuHdSc- II
is said that the Santa Fe agreed to
turn all freight originating in the San
Joaquin valley and on it's lines
through Texas, Arizona, New Mexico
and Oklahoma destined to the inter
mountain country to the Western Pa
cifc, and in addition the traffic de-
partment of the Santa Fe is to work
fol the Western Pacifc-Santa Fe
route in shipping freight out of the
intermountain country destined to
points in the aforementioned states.
The entrance into Sacramento is
looked upon by railroad men as the
best stroke of railroading displayed
by George J. Gould since he under
took to parallel the Southern Pacific
from Salt Lake to San Francisco. 1t
will increase the operating income of
the Western Pacific to such an extent
that the deficit which the road has
faced in the operating department
ever since it was built viii be wiped
out and in addition the Western Pa
cific from its own earnings will be
able to pay part of the interest on
its $40 100000 bond issue, which is
guaranteed by the Denver & Rio
Grande, and which road so far has
paid the interest on the Western Pa
cific bonds.

STRIKE HICH.CRADf:
ON DWY[R LEASE

Yesterday ID. X. Dwyer telephoned
to the Silver State from National that
on Tuesday afternoon strike was
made on the leasehold of the White
Rock Leasing company, formerly the
Hines Baldwin lease, that is apt to
prove Of greater Importance than the
National mine.
The strike was made in the raise,
GO feet above the drift level and at a
vertical depth of about 500 feet. Mr..
Dwyer stated that the ledge was
about four feet wide and would run
about $4,000 to the ton for the entire
width, although there was a streak of
four inches that will go as high as
$500 per pound.
Yesterday afternoon Mrs. J. l..
Workman called up her brotherin
law, Tom Baldwin, one of the owners
Of the lease, for confirmation of the
story He stated that he had just
come over from the mine, and that
the strike had every appearance Of
being of permanent nature. They
had Just broken into the ledge, which
would probably run from four to six
feet in width, and yesterday forty
pounds of high-grade were taken out
which, on conservative estimate,
will run $4,000 to the pound.
The White Rock Leasing company
was recently Incorporated, taking
over the Hines Baldwin lease. tt is
controlled by ID. r. Dwyer, whose as
sociates are Tom Baldwin, Dan Me
Cloud and N. P. r. Hatch. Dwyer
and Hatch are old dtimers In the camp,
having spent years of time and thous-
ands of dollars in development work,
and their many friends will be graft
fed to learn of their good fortnue.
The White Rock group of Gains is
owned by the West Virginia Mining
company, Mr.. and Mrs. J. L. Work
man holding practically all the stock.
New Life for National.
The new strike will prove of great
importance to both National and
winnemucea. Four or five years ago,
shortly after John f.. Pelton and asso-
ciates secured control of the National
mine. it is estimated that approx
mately 100000 per month found its
way from camp to Winnemucea, in
money spent for supplies, etc. In ad-
dition the road for the entire distance
between the two towns was filed with
a procession of autos and freighting
outfits, and all the road houses were
doing a land office business. 1t is
predicted that with this strike and
the recent showings at Buckskin, that
before the season ends there win be
a revival at National that will eclipse
ANYTHING the camp has ever known.
