Millions Of barrels Of oil are "ir
sight," as the expert says, in the vast
Elko shaIe deposits, which are twenty
miles long. There Is enough oi;-bear
ing shaie now in sight, said the expert
to produce 10000 barrels a day for
forty years.
The first unit of a great plant for
the extraction of the oil is now being
installed at a cost of $4,000. After
the experimental stage of develop
ment. the permanent plant will be con-
structed by adding other units, the
whole investment costing several hun
dred thousand dollars.
The enterprise is backed financially
by Mr.. r. NJ. Catlin. a resourceful and
conservative capitalist, whose tests of
the enormous shale beds convinced
him that they would produce millions
in profits and prove blessing to Elko
and all of Nevada.
Cheap Fuel and Power.
This means cheap fuel and cheap
power, for the butter-like oil extracted
from the shale makes the finest quail
ty of gasoline, and in the process of
distillation enormous quantities OF H.
Illuminating gas will be produced for
public use.
The first shaft, now down 100 feet
and cross-cut 100 feet, penetrates a
solid bed OF shale, extending a proven
length OF twenty miles and mo telling
how much farther" Tests from the
shale at the bottom show a net produc-
ton of 35 percent of OIL
This means the cheapest power for
thousands OF farmers, who are coming
to Elko County, for irrigation by
pumping from wells.
There is world of water" through. /
out this county. only few feet below |
the surface.
Elko's Greatness Assured.
This means factories of many kinds, |
to utilize Elko County's vast mineral
and agricultural resources.
This city is assured of industrial |
greatness. Without the oil. Elko soon
would have the cheapest electrical !
power, but with 1t, an impetus will i'm
mediately be given development that
VIII make this city the largest, most |
populous, and most resourceful in the
State.
Now is the time for farseeing men
TO establish here the foundations of
great fortunes. II one hundred ener.
getc young men would, at this time,
invest $1,000 each in the formation of |
an Elko development company, $780, |
900 cash capital, and begin with vim |
their pioneer work In the subdivision |
and preparation of farm lands for |
home-seekers, each of them would |
have fortune within ten years. The
original capital would be multiplied in
profits and the company would be
permanent and powerful institution.
Cooperation is needed along this
line. At least $50 ambitious men may
be found in Elko county who could
raise $1,000 each for this purpose.
Who is the man who will start the
movement? He must be an organizer.
a man of action and executive ability.
Golden opportunities are pleading
for acceptance. Wealth, however. from
promotion service, should be a sec.
ondary consideration. The spirit of
patriotism and loyalty should inspire
everyone to help in making this a
home section as nearly ideal as pos
sible. Thousands will come. when they
know Of our advantages.

NEW HAVEN' STILL COLLECTING FARES
New York Man Questions Regu-
 lati0n and Is Fined SIS

Because he insisted upon travelling passenger, on one of the New Haven roads jitney trains between Bristol and this city yesterday afternoon, Mi chael Riley of New York was assessed $13 and costs instead of the regular reduced rate. The rate was fixed by Judge James T. Meskill in police court today after Conductor James Pease related incidents of Rileys joy ride The technical charges were intOxca- ton and evading payment of railroad 1 fare.
 ] Riley labOred under the impression l that any old car could be used IS a l buffet coach and insisted upon having his liquor from an ordinary flask in l plain sight of passengers, who object ed. He also insisted that railroad
 conductors give transfers and insisted i that two debate slips be accepted in place of a ticket or cash. When their 1 acceptance was refused, Riley decid- 1 ed that the railroad owed him a ride and refused to donate anything to the i dividend fund. The train was then approaching New Britain station and Policeman Frank M. English sue ceeded Conductor Pease as Riley's es-
 cort. Riley put up a stubborn resist
 ance but was penitent this morning. 1 Conductor Pease testified that passen- gers said Riley could have the car as
 a special coach all for himself, if he ! was allowed to remain in it.
 Thomas Donlon of Oak street branded Supernumerary Policeman ! Thomas J. Feeney as a liar when ar
 raigned for breach of the peace His

 Judge Meskill not to believe Feeney lost him an opportunity for probation l Instead he has to pay a fine of SIC l and costs or work out this sum in jail 1 service. Policeman Feeney testified
 that Donlon blocl1adcd the sidewalk in front of @ local theater last night and i became very abusive when ordered tc

 Frank Kata was mot exactly sober

He said all the trouble was because he did not happen to have work and the boarding boss thought he might make himself useful by rocking a cradle and serving as nurse maid temporarily.
 Kata said that he felt it was no job for a big husky man like himself, Ob- jected and was elected from the boarding house. The resultant trouble, he contended, was because he left his hat indoors when making the hurried exit. Policeman Patrick O'Mara ap- peared as arbitrator and Kata Occu- pied place at police headquarters for the reminder of the night He was assessed SIP and costs for his ac- tivity.
