PIONEER DAY OBSERVED IN
WHITE RIVER VALLEY

At both Preston and Lund In the
White River valley Pioneer day was
attingly celebrated the early part of
the week, the festivities opening on
Monday, the 24th, which was the an
niyersary of the arrival of the pio-
neers in the Great Salt Lake valley,
and at both the towns in White River
the celebrations were so enjoyable
they were continued on Tuesday.
On Monday parades were held at
both Preston and Lund in which were
beautifully decorated floats on horse
back and on foot were representatives
of the sturdy old pioneers in frontier
garb and the army and navy was rep
resented, beside OK carts and hand
carts. A grand barbecue was served
and on Monday evening dances were
given in both towns.
A number of visitors from this
district, as we'll as from Duckwater,
Currant, and Sunnyside, motored into
the valley, and all were loud In their
praises OF the hospitality OF the
settlers in the White River valley.
Both barbecues were pronounced
successes. The ball game between
the Lund nine and the second team
from Ruth ended In victory for the
Lund boys by score of three to two.
which shows upon It's face a scien-
tihc exhibition of the game.
On the second day of the great cell
ebration there was horse racing,
wrestling matches and good, healthy,
clean sports of every description,
which were thoroughly enjoyed by
the large crowd in attendance. Judg-
ing from the expression of great sat.
isfaction heard on every side, there
will be a still larger attendance at
this celebration next year, as 1t Is
safe to say that none who witnessed
the one Just closed will miss such op-
portunities In the future, and their
praises of the hospitality ex-
tended by the White River people
cannot fail to attract great numbers
from the entire surrounding country
The only slight accident to mar the
entire celebration was when the sad
die on the horse ridden by John L
Whipple of Sunnyside, slipped. Johr
was unable to readjust his saddle II
time to prevent a collision in which
he was thrown to the ground bu
jumped up Immediately without ,
scratch. His horse suffered from I
fractured limb, but II was thought
that it could be cured in a shor1
time.

CARL MUIR IS APPOINTED
ADMINISTRATOR, SIRI ESTATE

Yesterday morning In the district
court Judge McFadden handed down
two decisions, which cleans the
court docket right up to the minute.
In the matter of the contest for ap-
pointment as administrator Of the
estate of James Siri, the court order
ed that Carl Muir of Hamilton be ap-
pointed. In handing down this de-
cision, the Judge stated that he had
the highest regard for both gentle
men who had made application. but
taking into consideration the fact
that the property of the estate con-
sisted principally of mining claims
now under lease from which royal
ties are coming in and that Mr.. Muir
was a partner In the claims. owning
half interest with Mr.. Siri In his
lifetime. he felt that the Hamilton
merchant being on the ground and
naturally obliged to take an active
interest In the matter for his own
protection he would be In a better
position to look after the welfare OF
the estate.
In the case brought by Evan Evans
against Alex Mcdonald, which is on
appeal from the justices court, a mo-
tion to dismiss the appeal was denied
In the upper court. and the case will
be tried within the next few days,
or as soon as counsel can arrange to
present their respective sides.

Former Governor Is Visitor

Denver 8. Dickerson, former gov
ernor and now warden, of the state
prison at Carson City is a visitor In
the district. When asked for his
views ON the present political situa-
tion, the former chief executive said
he was here on personal business.
He has large mining interests In this
section. which at this time are known
to demand his attention, but those
who know him we'll take into consid-
Grafton the fact that he Is always on
the firing line when political battle
is in progress and take the view that
while here the interests OF his friends
will not be neglected.

NEVADA WILL
ANSWER CALL
BATTLE BORN STATE WILL FUR
NISH 200 MEN FOR CAVALRY
SERVICE ON THE MEXICAN
BORDER.

Under a proclamation and In &C
cordance with a telegram received
from the secretary Of war, the state
of Nevada Is authorized to organize
two troops Of cavalry for government
service. In order to carry out the
instructions OF the secretary of war.
from the unorganized militia OF the
several counties OF this state 200 men
will be mustered into state service
and organized into two or moro
troops Of Nevada National Guard.
The work In White Pine county b
being actively cared for in Ely BY
James s. Bennett, recently appointed
lieutenant colonel of the Nevada Ma
tional Guard, and the state officials
have appointed Chas. Ziegler OF No
Gill to assist Mr.. Bennett in the work
and the mastering officers are direct
ed to Immediately ascertain the ar-
proximate number of recruits In
their districts who will enlist for
service at the Mexican border II need
ed
The Nevada National Guard is not
to be confused with what is common
ly known as the state police, as the
object and service to be performed
is of an entirely different character.
This is made clear by kilograms pass
ing between Lieutenant Colonel Ben
nett in Ely and Adjutant General
Sullivan at Carson City recently.
which were as follows:
"Can l officially state this servicS
is for federal duty only, and not for
strike duty or state police work."
JAS. s. BENNETT.
To Lieutenant Colonel BENEFITS
wire Adjutant General Sullivan re-
piled:
"You may state that service u
not intended for strike or state po-
lice duty.
"(Signed) SULLIVAN"
From discussions heard every day
1t is evident that the objects and
purposes of the Navada National
Guard are not clearly understood.
and when the matter Is thoroughly
explained, many now laboring under
an erroneous impression are only
too glad to offer their services when
they realize that It is the call OF
their country and for no other purs
pose whatsoever.
Lieutenant Colonel Bennett is
man of wide experience in military
matters. He was for many ylears .
member of the National Guard of
New York and was one of those who
was proud to offer his services when
they seemed needed at the time OF
the Spanish-American war.
All those desiring information may
apply to Colonel Bennett and he will
cheerfully furnish full details.
Briefly, under the war department
regulations for organized militia.
adopted March IL. 1910, the militia
consists Of
(a) Every able--bodied male
citizen of the respective states. ter
ritories and the District Of Colum-
bia who is more than eighteen and
less than forty-five years Of age;.
b. Every able-bodied male of
foreign birth who has declared his
intention to become citizen and who
| is more than eighteen and less than
F, forty-f1ve years of age.
| To answer such a call is nothing
more or less than patriotic duty.
and 1t is hoped that Nevada as usual
in such matters will be found In the
foreground.

SAXON ANNOUNCES
INCREASE IN PRICE
Made Necessary by Advanced
Costs of Materials and
Labor Since War.
EFFECTIVE FIRST OF YEAR

"On and after January /. 1917 as
scrts w. l.. Killy, the Saxon six
cylinder touring car will list at $685.
{. O. b. Detroit, an increase of $50
over the present price. 1t is need
less to comment here on the rea-
sons for this price increase. Material
and labor costs have been advancing
at an alarming rate during the past
few months and this increase in
price is inevitable. This new price
applies on the Series -Four touring
car. The Series Two roadster will
remain at $8l5.
Due to the increase in price on
the part of some twenty to twenty
five other automobile companies, the
Saxon maintains the same relative
position in the automobile world, SO
far as the list price is concerned as
it did several months ago when the
price was set at $8lS. In fact most
Of the other companies who have an
nounced price increases much great
er than that which we are announc-
ing at this time. The,following shows
a comparison in the costs of certain
raw materials before the outbreak OF
the European war and the present
time. Some of these materials have
practically increased three fold in
price whereas this increase which
we are announcing of $50 amounts
to only approximately E per cent OF
the present list price"

Franklin Sales
Speed on Swiftly

The R-U-2-B-l -of-60 score board de-
signed by H. Pelton to show prospec-
tive buyers, in fact any one interested,
just how many Franklin cars were al
lotsd him until July |, 1917, and just
how many out of each months allot-
ment were sold, has nearly assumed
the aspect of closed contract. On
December I, all but fifty cars of the
allotment of sixty, were sold leaving
ten to dispose of by July l.
In this connection it is interesting
to notice that several of the cars sold
were enclosed jobs and it will be i'm
possible to secure delivery on another
enclosed car until March J.. This in
dicates the popularity of closed cars in
Omaha.
The touring cars now being sold are
for July deliveries.
