NAV Extend Service

The street car company Operat-
ing in Sparks is considering extend
ing the system to include the resi-
dence portion of the town. Thu
growth of the town will warrant the
expenditure necessary for the i'm
I'provement and it would be a great
convenience to the public as 1t
would eliminate the long walk now
necessary to the main street.

c. F. s., Reno. Nev.-The Horn
silver Mining company has con-
tinued in existence, although it has
not been operating actively during
the past two years. 1t is said to
be literally financed, chiefly by
Milwaukee men, and work has late
ly been resumed on its property at
Hornsilver, under the direction OF
DR.. Elftman, a mining engineer
who was prominent in the early OPP
erations Of Tonopah. The main
shaft was sunk 500 feet and pay ore
was found on the $50 and 500
foot levels. A new ore-shoot of ap-
parent value has lately been ex-
plored at depth from the shaft.
B.. L., Salt Lake City, Utah-De-
tails of operation of the Pioneer
Consolidated Mines company are
set forth in full in the report OF
President Tobin, appearing in this
Issue. The mine is now in better
shape than at the close of the
period covered by the report. En-
perts believe that the flotation
process can be applied successfully
in all the mines of this region.

To many Of our citizens are relying

This is a very deep question and
think every subscriber should consid

their rights; and l think the news

should give all the facts on the cas-
and show exactly what towns Woul

AGAINST TELEPHONE MERGER,

Wheeling. w. Va, Mich. 2, 1916.
Editor of the Majority:
notice considerable space is taken
up in your editorial column about Ma
tional and International affairs, which
nineteenth of your readers care moth
ing about, while matters of consider
able Importance to almost every cltl7
zen in this community are scarcely
mentioned.
One Of these am going to call your
attention to, the telephone merger
now being woGked UP by the Bell Tele-
phone~Co. positively believe thus to
be one of the biggest robberies ever
attempted to be put over on the pub
lie. The csGnWes6ers are given nice
little story to tell and all the data is
furnished to show the subscribers
how much less one phone will cost
them than. two,
Let us look into this case little.
How many business houses can get
along with single phone line! How
many times per day do you find both
your phones in use? You will tlnd II
a matter of almost daily occurrence
that your party may he busy on one
phone and you can geHach them over
the other with ease. In this age OF
rush and strife for efficiency, and
where time is mon ey, every business
house will find it a bsolutely necessary
to have two or mo re direct lines com,
ing into their off. ees. This will cost
them more on tn e Bell System than
it does on the b ell and National at
the present time.
Then, do not overlook this miser
able toll propo sition. Just think!
every time you c all a party in Mounds
vile, St. GAINESVILLE, West Alexander
and some other points I am not famll
lar with, you wall be required to pay
, toll. This will. lead to endless com
plications and disputes and consider
able extra clerical work to keep tract
Of toll charges that will have to bt
charged UP against the telephone.

Telephone Co. to do anything for tn
dear public that did not net the Bel

NOT A HOSPITAL.

Editor Majority:
Here's a story a little too good to
be lost to the world 1t was told TO
the writer twenty OF moNA years ago
by an old time puddler, JACK PatteF-
soll-now gone to his reward
The story is subs .antial4y as fol-
lows
AT one time the Top mill pudding
department was about to starr up with
new manager. A lot of stray pud-
dlerst came around then applying for
jobs.i Among those who came was
fellow short of an eye The manager
..old} him he would see what he coulo
do for him and let him know.
t.. After a while another puddler minus
u leg, but replaced by a wooden peg
put in an appearance and also an ap
.plication for job. The manager also
told him that he would see what couio
be done for him.
Soon another puddler came arounc
carrying big hump on his back He
too, wanted a job and spoke for one
The manager began to look puzzled
but nevertheless promised this mai
also to see what could be done To-
him.
After these applicants for jobs hat
come and gone, there came later
couple more puddlers with some par
of their anatomy, missing or malform
ed-one, / think, one-armed man
who also applied for jobs in the mill
But when the last one came the nev
manager exclaimed, with more warmth
than politeness: Were not going t.

ing will take fro ma week to ten days,
when the furnace will be lighted, and
after three days of drying out will be
ready to work on. The cost of re-
building this furnace runs into the
hundreds.
Will be Big Mill.
When mill No. 6 starts again il will
be big mill, working thirty-six and
up to forty wide light gauges of sheet
iron. Before this change nothing
wider than thirty inches WIS worked
on this mill A great number of the
men were under the impression that
when No. was made big mill No. 7
would be made soft mill permanent
| ly, but it is learned fro m semi-ofli-
cial source that this will not be done,
as the heavier iron can be made as
formerly on mills - and IA. While
it is not certain, vt is believed mills
| to II inclusive will work four days
this week Mills -, "A and Is, five
| days. There is every indication of the
work.
Trade Conditions Good.
The conditions of the trade in the
shee tmills over the country are good,
as. most of the union mills are work
ing full time, and all of them at.least
four days, a week. Where idle mills
are found, or those working only part
time, this is directly traceable. SO
those seemingly informed say, ito the
high price of spelter." The companies
are refusing future orders on billets
| bars, wire products, steel pipe OF
plates solely on this account, and il
the price continues one can look fol-
idle plants when present orders are
filled. While ninety per cent of spell
ter is made here, it is not available a
a reasonable price
