Governor Johnson in a formal state

wholesale devastation of California

PICTE SQUAW LOSES
HER EAR IN A FIGHT

Should Charley Benton, a we'll
known local p%rOspectOT and mining
man. who is interested to some ex-
tent in the Ida district, ever de-
sire to join the ambulance corps
of any of the European belligerents
he can receive an excellent letter of
recommendation from Maggie Shaw,
a squaw, resident of Ida, and wife
of Ike Shaw, a Piute. 1t seems that
Maggie and Ike got into a domestic
wrangle at their tepee near Ida
which resulted In Ike clamping mis-
teeth on Maggie's ear with such VEN
geance that the lady lost her right
auricular appendage. Benton was in
the vicinity of the trouble and glad
ly extended his protection when she
sought refuge from the enraged
buck. Her ear was in such bad shape
that Benton converted his wagon IN
to an ambulance and brought her to
Goldfeld yesterday afternoon. She is
now in the county hospital receiv-
ing medical treatment. The where
abouts of Ike is a mystery but he
is expected to call with his sympathy
at the hospital in the ear future.

IN NEVADA
SHOWING INCREASE
+. NJ. MANSON EXPRESSES OPTI-
MISTIC VIEW REGARDING
INDUSTRY

Mining activity throughout Nevada
continues to increase, according to
F. NJ. Manson, general manager of
the Utah Ore Sampling company,
who has returned to Salt Lake after
a trip through the principal mining
districts of that state. Despite the
low market price of silver, the prop
critics producing that metal continue
to operate at capacity, the manage
ments storing it until better prices
prevail. In discussing the mining
situation throughout the state Mr..
Manson said yesterday:
There is more mining activity in
Nevada at present than l have seen
in years. Operators take a decided
ly optimistic view of the metal mar
ket, and r expecting higher prices
for silver. New districts are being
opened up and M hears of new
strikes in nearly all of the camps
throughout the state.
1.-THE recent discovery of gold in
a number of new districts has given
an impetus to the industry that here
tofore was apparently in no need of
any stimuplus. Mining men attribute
the greater activity to the decided
increase in prospecting that has
been going on for some time past.
"Tonopah continues to produce a
heavy tonnage of ore and the opera
tors in that district are decidedly
optimistic regarding the immediate
future. More money is going into
that camp and a number of proper
ties are being developed that sooner
or later will be heard from. The
same condition prevails in Goldfeld.
New companies are being organized,
and, as greater depth discloses ore
bodies of considerable magnitude
one hears the more conservative op-
orators predicting that the camp is
still in its infancy."-Salt Lake

GOOD ROADS MOVEMENT
IS STARTED IN TURKEY

CONSTANTINOPLE, Aug. &c. -
The extent to which the wal mas
promoted good roads building in
Turkey is indicated in a report just
issued by the Ottoman ministry of
war stating that 740 miles of roads
have been graded. ~levelled and re
surfaced with gravel, and 3S2 miles
of roads have been macadamized by
the work of battalians of the Turkish
army since the beginning of the war.
European Turkey has benefited
greatly by these improvements, but
the greater mileage of the new roads
is in Anatolia, the Asiatic peninsula.
The work has involved not only act
ual road improvement. but the con
struction of hundreds of bridges and
culverts.
The total mileage of roads built
by the Ottoman army during the
was is 1913 English miles. The work
was done entirely by the older Turk
ish reserves and by Armenians of
military age who were not sent into
the field because their loyalty to the
Turkish flag was doubted.
From his own experience in trav-
cling over several hundred miles of
the new roads. the Associated Press
correspondent can say that the work
was well done on the whole.
Much care was taken in finding
the best grades. Wherever neces-
sary the entertainments we're revet-
ted, and no labor was spared in MAX
ing cuts where they were necessary
to a favorable grade. This is es-
pecially true of the roads built be-
tween Adrianople and Constantine
pie and those built in the Taurus
and Amanus mountain ranges.
While the majority of the engineers
and officers supervising the worl.
were Turks. there were a few Ar
menians and Greeks and a number
of Germans and Austrians.
Very little modern road building
machinery was used with the eX-
ception of a few steam rollers and
small rock crushers. The roads
were leveled by pick and shovel and
cuts were made in the same manner
although hand drills and blasting
powder were used where lodges vert
encountered. Most of the crushed
rock, tons of which were used. was
broken by hand, a task which some
officers made easier by having a
piper keep the hammers in time with
a tune.
Those familiar with travel condi-
tons in the Ottoman empire say that
the country has never had so many
good roads as at present. In addi-
ton to the new roads that have been
built for strategic purposes, many
miles of neglected roads have been

GREAT OEARTH
OF MEDICAL MEN

LOANDOANs nus. 10
of medical men in the United King
dom is not only serious at present on
account of the war, but it will con-
tinue for years afterward, in the
opinion of the Lancet, the organ OF
the British medical profession.
In its issue of August 2S the
Lancet says:
THAT II medical schools will go
very short of students is certain, and
this will mean a dangerously small
list of practitioners to minister to
the needs of the country in the near
future. The position is inevitable.
The spirit which will lead young men
OF the military age and the educated
class to join the army must have
this effect, but it is the duty of the
medical profession to face the diff
Guilty and to make the best OF 1t.
THE great work which the medi-
cal contingent with the navy and
army has accomplished in the pres
ent war will act later as a stimulus
to enthusiasm for our calling, and

years following = say, 1917 will
speedily remedy itself when u So
cial world resumes, as far as altered
circumstances will permit, the
scheme which, We had. with o nj.Ger-
able lack of provision, come to re-
garls as the normal one.
The war found the number of
members of the medical profession
in this country already disquietingly
low, and with indications of further
sagging in these numbers. The fig
ures indicate a serious shortage of
medical men for the years following
tie war. Not only has a large num-
Der of young men who otherwise
would be BEGINNING or pursuing ,hesr
medical studies been absorbed, but,
unfortunately, a serious toll was
taken last autumn of those who, be-
ing already nearly qualified, would
have been able to practice their
profession as qualified lei in a few
months.
"The future will see an increased
demand for medical men, and their
prospects of success will be so great
that the aspirants will assuredly be
numerous. And there will be an i'm
provement in the conditions which
have prevailed in the past, not only
because the profession of medicine
| will share in sociological progress,
but because the record of the work
"of medicine throughout the war has
been such that it must lead to a
closer relationship between the
medical profession and the public.
