PROFIT SHARING
ON THE COMSTOCK
STuRGES COMPANIES ARRANGE
TO DIVIDE A PERCENTAGE
OF EARNINGS

At the directors meetings held yes
terday afternoon the three Sturges
companies of Gold Hill, Yellow Jack
ct, Crown Point and Belcher passed a
resolution that on and after Febru-
airy l, 1914, and until further orders
of each board of directors, each com
pany shall pay to all employees on its
payroll, from the general manager
down, l per cent additional for every
$1,000 in excess of $4,000 net return
from bullion actually produced from
ores extracted from the companies
mines each month. This profit-shar-
ing plan was introduced in coal min
ing properties controlled by Edward
b. Sturges in Pennsylvania some
years ago, and it has been to the
benefit of employers and employees.
For example, when ore extraction
from the unwatered lower levels of
the Crown Point, Belcher and Yellow
Jaket mines is resumed within the
next few months, should the monthly
net returns from bullion actually
produced by any one of these prop
critics be $4,000 or $4,000 in excess
of $4,000. the employees who receive
500 per month will each get $40 ad-
ditional, and in proportion as to the
amount of their wages, or salaries, at
the rate of per cent of each $1,000 Of
profits above the $4,000. The more
ore that is taken out and the larger
the bullion yield, the greater will be
the returns to the employees Bull

NEVADA WAY OF DOING THINGS
JUST AT THE RIGHT
TIME.

A rancher arrived in McGin on
Monday last and reported that a
family residing about ten miles north
of Hercules Gap were in distressing
circumstances and greatly in need of

hasty trip to the cabin. where they
found Mrs. McMannus and five chill
dren, ranging from Is months to
several years of age The husband
and father was at Cherry Greek
hustling for work. The family were
practically destitute and living in a
cabin with dirt floor. The larder
had run very low and the visit of the
Officers was greatly appreciated by
the mother and children 1t is prob.
able that the family will be sent to
Ely, where they can be better pro
vided for until the husband anc
father is able to secure work.

S. P. CO. TO BUILD
TO AVOID SINKS
LINE FROM VALLEJO TO 6ENiciA
WILL GIVE SOLID RoADBED
FOR RAILROAD

VALLEJO, Feb. According to
information reaching this city the Of
ficials of the Southern Pacific rail
road company have about decided to
construct the seven-mile link from
Vallejo to Benicia this year. From
what can be learned the inability of
the big TRANSFORMATION company to
overcome the troublesome sinks along
the main line in the Suisun marsh
has been a big factor in the determ-
nation to hasten the completion of
years. With this stretch of track
completed the company would not
have to worry over the sinks, as the
trains could be routed from Suisun
TO Benicia by way of Cordelia and
Vallejo.
At the present time hundreds of
men are kept working night and day
in the Suisun marsh, and 1t is only
by herculean efforts that the main
line is kept in condition for the OPP
GRAFTON of trains. Much time is lost
by the trains. as it is necessary to
slow down and practically crawl over
the bad spots, which are threatening
to sink at any minute.
With the completion of the North
ern Electric and the operation of its
fast express trains the Southern Pa
cific will have to be in position tC

trio system, and it cannot do so Will

than air and water.

resolutions were adopted:
Whereas, The route of the Lincoln

citation, is closed to interstate motor
car travel over one-half of each year,
because of natural climatic condi-
tons on the Sierras; and,
Whereas, The Inyo Good Road club
of California has made protest against
such route because it is so closed to
interstate motor car travel, which
protest will be presented to said Lin
coin Highway association; and.
Whereas, Said lnyo Good Road
club has recommended instead of
such route so selected, that THE
Exposition Way" now in regular use
and open all the year for interstate
motor car travel. be adopted as the
official route of the Lincoln highway
Said Exposition Way" recomend
