NORA DEMOCRATIC
BALLOTS "JlMMYIZED"

oy. N. M, Nov. 13.-Telephone adj
vices direct from Mora are to the eff
feet that Fabian Chaves, Democrat, is
ected assessor of Mora county, and
Ricardo Romero commissioner Of the
FIRST district. Republicans claim all
other county officers by safe major
tiles.
Reports from Albert are that that
precinct went overwhelmingly Demo-
cratic. In spite of the fact that some
one "jimmyized" the Democratic bal
lots from the election supplies and
fer much OF the day they had to
write their ballots in full, says the
Spanish-American, The ghoul who
stole the ballots Internationally made
the people all the more opposed to
Is narty and its methods.
The Mills ballot box is said to have
been left at a saloon in Mills, after
the vote was counted, for several
hours. Then it was brought to Roy
and left lying in a saloon till train
time and was carried away on the
same train it would have been taken
on had 1t been sent by parcel post.
It will be interesting to learn just
how much this form of delivering the
ballot at Mora will cost the county.

Mineral County Booming.

Mr.. aud Mrs. Frank Red of Raw
hide were auto arrivals in Carson
Yesterday. Mr. Red is member OF
the board of county commissioners
of Mineral county and has been en-
gagged in mining IN Rawhide ever
since the boom days of the camp
He said Mineral county was booming
both in commercial and mining ways
and that the tungsten fields in and
around Nina, Luning and Sodaville
are alive with prospectors and the
mines are shipping regularly aud
producing large tonnage of that
kind of ore, which runs from 3 To 4
per cent and pays a handsome profit.
At Luning over 140 teams are at
work hauling ore and supplies ana
the town is like the boom days OF
some of the older mining camps.
New buildings are going up every
day and it is hard to secure teams
to do the work Lodging for visit
ors are also hard to fnd. Aroued
| Sodavile the same state of affairs
exists, but no. to so large an extent,
Nina is also enjoying prosperity and
her copper properties are all looking
well and shipping regularly. In
fact the entire county of Mineral Is
prosperous and mole mining is being
carried on than ever before in its his
tory, and the year 1916 is going to
be banner year.-Carson Appeal.

Is Interested In
Proposed Road
Luning Man Makes Suggestions For
Raising Funds TO Build
New Highway
EDITOR BULLETIN:

EDITOR BULLETIN:
| have just read in your paper of
the proposed road to skirt the west
side of Walker Lake. Such read
would make u direct cutoff to Los
Angeles, leaving the Lincoln High
way at Reno There seems to be
little doubt but that the Lincoln
Highway will be the great Trans
continental road for autoists,
Noting that San Francisco, IN it's
anxiety to secure the business
brought by the autoists, has agreed
to expend something over $40 600
upon the Lincoln Highway in this
state, | would suggest that the per.
son having the scheme in charge
communicate with some of the auto
mobile associations of Southern Cal
ifornia in the hope of securing a sub.
stanti donation toward the cost OF
this road. A detailed explanation
OF the savings in grade, distance, etc
would have to accompany any such
request, and also a showing made
that some portion of the Lincoln
Highway traffic might be thus di-
verted TO Southern California.
There is also very "live" auto
mobile association at Bishop, Calf.
whose interest in the affair should
be aroused if possible.
believe that there has been some
local road work done by the convicts
of this state between Reno and Car
son. 1t seems to me that such "a
road would be very proper place
for the expenditure of some convict
labor 1t has the merit of helping
probably more communities and
counties than any other one road
which could be built in Nevada out
side of the Lincoln Highway proper.
Practically every town from Reno
south to Golddeld ought to con trib-
ute something toward this road
Can yon not get some enterprising
of your city to plat this supposed
road showing the territory to be
served with the savings as against
present roads. Copies OF this print
should be put in the hands of all the
automobile people in Western Neva-
da and Southern California.
Yours truly,
E. G. WATSON.

Personal Items From Schurz.

From the Reno Gazette. Willis bro
theirs, who we're ordered to move
their stamp mill from the Walker
river Indian reservation, have re-
ceived word from Washington that
the commissioner of Indian affairs
has granted them an extension of
time and will investigate the matter
more fully. They contend that the
waste materials from the mill are
carefully kept from the river aud
cannot in any way contaminate the
water or poison the fish of the river
or the stock drinking the water. If
this becomes substantial the indica-
tions are that the order of removal
will be rescinded.

BANDIT RIDES WITH THE
MEN HE HAD ROBBED

Kansas City, Mo-, Nov. 14.-As the
Missouri Pacific's 0maha-Lincoln ex-
press train No. 1O8 was leaving Leav-
enworth tonight for Kansas City, Mo-,
a masked robber, entered the rear
sleeping coach, levelled a pistol. at the
four male passengers and the conduc-
tor, C. E. Schmidt, and obtained 500.
Eighty dollars Of this was taken from
the conductor. The bandit then in
formed his victims that they might re-
sumo their seats. "I'll ride way with
you," he said.
At intervals, as one of the passen-
gers would shift his position, the pistol
in the robbers hand would shift to
cover him. When the trai pulled into
the Kasas City, Kan, station, the man
wished his victims laughing good
ight," left the coach by the rear plat
form and disappeared through the
dark maze of tracks and cars.

THE LURE OF THE wILDs

Anticipation often brings more en-
joyment than realization. In proof Of
this statement we will cite you to the
experiences of a couple of Clayton's
prospective young trappers (?) 1t
has been but few short weeks, since
"Bab" Boggs and "Orve" Weckel, in
vigorated by the crisp autumn air, at
tained a longing for wilds and the
sports attached thereto. So great be-
came the lure that being unable to
stand it longer, they yielded up lucra-
tive positions, provided themselves
with traps and "chuck" and departed
into the unknown" wilds of Union
county, in pursuit of wild animals"
Here comes the sad part of the story.
After several weeks of persistent try
ing to lure game their way, they
find themselves unsuccessful as far as
profits go, and their supply of "chuck"
almost exhausted. An S. o. S. call
was Immediately sent to Clayton and
on Sunday last "Tim" Boggs motored
to their rendezvous and brought the
wayfarers home, poorer but wiser. AL
though the boys venture was not a
success financially, they succeeded in
getting the scents" as we are told
they came in contact with several
skunks and coyote and even brought
their pelts back as trophies, Better
stay at home boys, and be sure Of
something to eat, than to take any
more wild chases. Wild creatures ar
very evasive.

NO IMMEDIATE PLANS
T ORECALL PERSHING

San Antonio, Texas, Nov. 14.-Ma-
jor General Funston said tonight that
no orders for a new disposition Of
troops of the expeditionary force in
Mexico have been issued. Nothing at
headquarters indicated that an early
withdrawal of General Pershing's COM
mand is contemplated.
Officers pointed out that presence
of American troops in Mexico serves
to minimize the danger of border
raids. 1t is the opinion of military
authorities that Villa can hardly risk
a move against the Big Bend country
while Pershing's men are on duty, be-
cause of the ease with which his re-
treat back into Chihuahua could be cut
off.
