Advocates of preservation Of the
California building and other feat
urea Of the Panama-Paciflc exposition
began to alter their plans somewhat
following the explanation of the ex
position directors that there were INC
real profits" from the exposition and
that such funds as would remain
probably would not be available foi
from two to ten years. II was shown
that "the profits" were merely a re-
mainder Of tho capital contributed.
Answering those who asked urgent
action, the directors called attention
to the fact that 1t vii be two years
before the grounds can be restored ia
their original conditions; that there
are 500 law suits pending against the
exposition, and that the Columbian ex
position at Chicago did not close itf
affairs and make final settlement fol
ten years after the gates closed.

Historic Old Town of Genoa
Loses Seat Of Government

The county seat Of Douglas county,
established at Genoa in 1861. was
moved to Minden New Year day. in
accordance with an act of the Ne
vada legislature OF 1915. says the
Gardnerville Record. A fine $4,000
courthouse has been completed at
Minden for the county Officers and
records.
Genoa has been fated town from
its. inception. and It is not without
pangs OF sorrow and regret that her
residents Witnessed the removal of
the seat Of government to Minden.
History tells us the first public
meeting in what now is Nevada of
which there Is any record, was held
at Mormon Station" now Genoa,
November ~, 1851. The meeting was
held in the old log cabin which stood
in that town until destroyed by fire
few years ago. The object OF the
meeting, was to organize squatter
government and to adopt local rules
for governing the settlers and their
property: This meeting agreed upon
petition to the national congress
for territorial government. A sec.
ond meeting was held November IS
Of the same year and the next day
a local form of government was
adopted.
The petition resulted in forming
Carson county, Utah, in 1854, which
embraced all Of what now is Washoe
counties, and the greater part Of Els
meralda and Churchill counties and
q part of Humboldt county. The
county seat was at Genoa.
An attempt then was made to get
a representative at Washington tc
represent the territorial government
and James w. Crane was elected as
delegate. Crane having died, John
Musser was elected as his successor
on November IL, 1859.

The kind Of baseball fitzgerald

larger crowds than have been at
tending games for the last few
days. For instance, two cast-otf
fitzgerald players are starring in
the Dixie, at least two were until
one was called to Join the Nat
ional Guard. When a Dixie lea
gucr thinks he deserves a better
place than in that league he usu-
ally tries out with some Big 4"
team. We have i'll the Big Four
league and in our own club, men
who refused good jobs in the Sal
~ because they wanted to play
faster baseball in the Big Four
Every day the local club furnish
cs exhibitions which would DO
credit TO any league in the state.
Besides that, there are i'll this
same Big 4" league, at least half
Of the men who made the All

as they finish school make good
in Glass B baseball or possibly in
the Major leagues. There are on
every team the setllar lights Of

and the other big schools Of the

FITZGERALD LOST GAME
FRIDAY TO MONTEZUMA

Friday Fitzgerald was defeated
by the Rowers" five to three.
However, the score did not tell
the worst Of it. The game was a
farce the whole way through. The
fans say they never enjoyed a
game SO mitch Tor a long time.
The home team was very badly
handicapped from the first. Bon
ncr started to pitch with d sore
arm bur had to quit il the third
inning. Skipper Cochran was GER
tainly in a quandary, not to say
ON a dilemma. Puckett and Milf
gan had both pitched two days
before and Fuss had worked the
first game Of the series. Bonner
was out for the day.
Since it seemed impossible to
pull a victory, Skip pulled a sur
prise. The surprise was George
Norris. George, never suspected
OF being anything like a pitcher,
stepped into the box But Nor
ris did some nice work, allowing
but seven hits and walking only
three men. Pretty good for a
classy third baseman.
Milligan went to third base,
where he pulled a little high-class
comedy, and some tumbhng
which should get him a job with
Ringing Bros circus.
Dick Stevens furnished quite a
little amusement also. Very early
in the game it was discovered that
he was easily excited and the
bleachers rode him like he was
a jitncy bus. Dick was hot as the
old Nick some Of the time. Con
sidering as how he saved us from
a drop in the percentage column a
few days ago we don't think ii
was very nice 81 the fans to peck
on him like that. Dick was mad
enough to kill something and as il
was within easy reach he Killed
a lot Of time, which added vol
umes to the remarks OF the
blcachcrs.
But it was an enjoyable game,
il not alright.

PEACH MEN GETTING THE
CASH MONEY FOR CROPS

Atlanta, Ga, July 1.-The
Georgia Fruit Exchange, which
is the cooperative organization
Of the peach growers Of the state,
is particularly gratifed, according
to reports today, over the prompt
sale for cash on the cars of so
great a proportion OF this years
crop.
It seldom happens, as is the
case this year, that considerably
more than fifty per cent of the
peaches SO far have been sold +. o.
b. on the tracks at the points
where grown. This means the
cash money in the hands Of the
grower before the peaches begin
to move. Out of POS carloads
OF peaches handled by the ex-
change up to Tuesday, 1S1 cars
were sold for cash on the tracks.
The total movement from Geor-
gia tip to that time was SIS cars,
and the returns for the entire
week will show a total shipment
of 700 cars up to today. The frIt
is now chiefly going to the snail
CT markets. The markets geucr-
all: are calling for peaches. The
prices are reported satisfactorily.
Il Is anticipated that the Tuiy
movement this year will be aHout
one thousand cars less than last
year.
