Washington DoingS
Concerning Nevada
Especial to the Appeal

A5PN('e' ~ 49, RBS
WASHINGTON, March 2.-The
Nevada senators have been very busy
during the past week trying to secure
an additional appropriation from
Congress for the upper Carson branch
OF the Truckee-Carson project. SEN
ator Pittman, after consulting with
Senator Newlands, introduced an
amendment to the Sundry civil bill.
Senator Newlands has had a number
OF consultations with Clay Tallman,
commissioner OF the general land
Office, with reclamation officials, and
with numerous senator's. The Demo-
cratic leaders insistence on economy
has proved the greastest stumbling
block, and all appeals for Nevada
seem to have fallen on deaf ears.
However, the Senators are still al
work and until the gavel falls at noon
on March 4, they will not have aban-
doned all nope.
A former Nevadan, l.. l.. Hudson,
who was known quite generally in
Elko county as a cattle man, and
who for some time has been at Le-
banon, Tenn, has been admitted to
practice before the Supreme court II
the United States and is preparing TO
return to Nevada, where he will pra-
ctice law. He has been spending some
time IL Washington and has called on

ton, and has listened to some Of the
del ates from the gallery.

FAIRBANKS MAN
TNVENTS DRILL

FAIRBANKS. March 20.-A new de- vice for hand drilling has been invent ed here in the city and patent has been applied for by Jack Shanks lt offers every facility at all time Co ma chine workers on new inventions was first suggested by miner named Carlson of Valdez creek and this idea Shanks has worked out in the shops of the Samson Hardware Co.,, which without other cost than material and special machinery used.
 Shanks' patent consists Of the usu- al tripod with scieve at the top from which the cable is suspended and to which the drin is attached. How ever. instead Of a walking plank as in the old style. the driller turns a cyhn- der fastened 70 one side Of the tripod, using a crank. or two men can work a crank at each end Of the cylinder. As they turn 1t the drill is hoisted a little and then Is released by tension spring on the cylinder lt,is a sim pie idea and one yabiable feature of it is that a small engine of power Of some sort might be attached to the crank handle to turn it. taking the place Of the driller himself The au- tcmatic release .ot the cable when it has been wound up so far saves lots of work and energy and any degree of speed may be attained. The ma. chine is set up in the shops and may be seen by any one visiting there : tFairbanks News-Miner)
