R. E. Z. WINDLE,
Editor the Humboldt Star.

Winnemucca, Nevada, Jan. Z, 1915.
Editor Of the Railroad Red Book,
Denver, Colorado:
Notwithstanding adverse business
conditions of the past year, Nevada
looks with confidence to the new year,
and particularly is this true of Hum
boldt and Elko, the two banner coun-
ties of the state. Grass is king, and
we have the grass and the stock to
consume it. While there is slight de-
crease here in the wool industry, this
has been more than offset by the in
crease in the cattle production. Expert
ments have demonstrated that water
for irrigation purposes may be profit
ably pumped from wells, and this fact
has added thousands Of acres to irri-
gable lands in this county. Our citi-
zens are hopeful that during the pres
ent year the north and south railroad
will be built, running from Boise, Ida
no, to connect with the Western Pacific
at this point.

Winnemucca, Nevada, Jan. z, 1915.
Editor of the Railroad Red Book,
Denver, Colorado:
Undoubtedly Humboldt County and
the entire northern Nevada section will
enjoy increased progress and prosper
ity during 1915. The return of business
confidence and the assurance that capi-
tai will be available for legitimate en-
terprises constitute the basis of the
forecast. The outlook for the livestock,
agricultural and mining industries
was never better, promising increased
development and production during the
year We know nothing of hard times.
Business conditions are excellent, the
deposits and resources of all the banks
show large increases over last year,
more land is being brought under culti-
vation, the mines are responding with
larger output, and everything augurs
that the year will be a richly pros
porous one for the thrifty, prudent and
capable.

cause of the death of her husband.
Her husband, who was quite deaf, was
walking along the company's right of
way driving a flock of turkeys. He
was knocked down and killed. The
court upholds the verdict of the lower
court in it's ruling that the company
did not exercise the proper amount of
vigilance when it saw a pedestrian in
peril.
Young Palon was trespasser, and
this the company used in its argument
to defeat the claim. The boy while
crossing the tracks caught his foot in
frog and was run down while trying
10 release himself. The court holds
that those in charge of the train saw
the boys peril and should have stop
