The SCRATCH PAD.
BY THOMAS EWING 0A5NEY.

The trouble with Kaiser Bill, the
Trapper, is, he can't get the Russian
bear to swim the River of Doubt.
The Germans who thought that
President Wilson was bluffing, will
soon find that there is no bull in the
American bullets.
That creaking noise is the war ma
chine of Kaiser Bill, which has not
been running so smoothly since he
lost his Greece.
Having been kicked by a horse and
not by an auto, Pancho Villa forfeits
all claim to being a modern states
man, and we doubt if he will even
qualify to be a vice presidential Candi-
date in Chileconcarneland.
Middlemen who take advantage of
the peoples helplessness to raise the
prices of goods bought last year at
a considerably lower rate than pres
ent quotations, are as contemplate as
the vultures higher up, who by their
SPECULATION create an artificial price
and should be escorted to the edge of
town and firmly assisted on their way
with the shoe tip.
If it is true that neutral countries
will suffer famine as a result of our
food embargo, they will, of course,
declare war against Germany and
become our allies, thereby becoming
entitled to all the grain they need.
If they do not, it will simply prove
what we suspected that the supplies
were simply being re-exported to Ger
many.

PICTURE OF HORROR HELD
BEFORE PUBLIC BY DIR. AKED

AT well-attended meeting held in
the Nixon Opera House last night the
Rev. Charles f, Aked, DID. LID, of
San Francisco, gave most interest
ng lecture on the condition of affairs
and .1he terrible sufferings of the
Armenians and Syrians. The mas
terly eloquence of DR.. Aked painted 4
picture of suffering and sorrow and
ragedy such as the world has never
seen before. Deportations of many
thousands of people under the most
cruel conditions by the Turkish en-
pire have impoverished a race and
left it helpless and dependent upon
the American people for relief.
Homeless. hopeless, Christian wo-
men and their innocent children,
some of them babies born on the road,
have been driven forth at the point OF
the bayonet day after day, hungry,
thirsty, naked. They constitute the
remnant of the Oldest of Christian
churches. and are dying of starva-
ton in the deserts of the land where
Christ lived and taught.
The saddest feature of this tragedy
of history is not the martyrdom of the
manhood of a race, nor even the cruel
destruction of mothers. but the cry Of
hungry children. We coud not prevent
the deportations and massacres, nor
save those who died; but now. know
ing that the people who remain are
dying for bread. and knowing that
willing helpers can reach them with
relief, can we withhold our hand?
At the close of the address pledges
for the work were asked for and met
with liberal respsonse and to carry
the work out to its completion, T. j..
Salter was appointed chairman of a
permanent committee on Armenian
and Syrian relief

Dora Long has crop of 1000 bushels
of June wheat worth $4,000. She
was not expecting so large a yield,
because the season had been back

now one of storage. For the present,
in addition to her barns. she is using
her bedrooms, as well as other apart
ments of her home, as wheat bins.

temporary inconvenience. A woman

new LEASE OF LIFE
WARNS KENNEDY

The mining camp of Kennedy, stu
ated about sixty miles south of Win
nemucca and which a few years ago
attracted great deal of attention, is
again on the producing list and is in
line for aggressive development and
prospecting.
The Roylance Reduction company,
which has acquired some of the best
mining property in the district, has
completed a new mill and from what
can be learned the reduction plant is
doing good work and turning out bull
lion.
L. st. d. Roylance, president of the
company, and S. l.. Berry, under
whose supervision the plant was
erected, are pleased with the show
ings made and have arranged for
greater operations. The ore is to be
conveyed from the mine to the mill by
an aerial tramway. which will be
built just as soon as material can be
landed on the ground. With this
conveyor in operation the handling of
ore will be facilitated and a larger
tonnage will be handled through the
mill than under the present plan.
The ores extracted by the Roy
lance company carry good values in
gold and silver. The management
has also arranged for a four-wheel
drive tractor with Troy trailers for
general hauling purposes.
Another property in the camp that
is undergoing aggressive develop
ment is the estate known as the Gold
Note. under operation by w. S.
Zuick. A new tunnel has been started
and when in the required distance
will give a depth of about IT'S feet
below the old tunnel level Mr. Zuick
expects to run 600 feet before tapping
the main ledge. The new bore is now
in about thirty feet with a twenty-five
foot open cut at the portal, and all
nicely timbered.
Jake Leick is dong work on his
Homestake claim and is opening a
large vein of milling ore. This prop
erty is situated about a mile east OF
the town. Mr.. Leick has had this
property for some years and at diff
ferent places where the ledge is ex-
posed there is good ore.
There are many other good mining
properties in the camp and with the
successful operation of the new mill
great things may be looked for in

SfD|TION BROUGHT
DIRECT TO HOMES!

H. M. Hoyt, federal food admins
traitor for the state of Nevada. has
been informed by telegram from Wash
ington that an organized effort is
being made by disloyal people to dis
courage the enrolment of families of
the United States in the pledge card
campaign for conservation of food.
This movement appears even to have
gone so far as to include unauthorized
persons wearing food administration
buttons and thus securing entrance to
homes, making false statements to
the effect that the government has
been stimulating the canning of fruits
and vegetables with the intention of
confiscating half or more of what was
put up in private homes.
Hoyt states most positively that
the representations are utterly false
and are made in the interest of the
enemies of the United States. The
government has no intention of con-
fiscating or otherwise interfering with
anybody's domestic supplies. The i'm
portance of conserving food and pre-
venting waste in the families of the
country cannot be overstated.
Hoyt especially requests that infor-
nation which will enable him to iden-
tify and locate the persons spreading
this mischievous misinformation be
furnished him. This information will
be much appreciated and such per-
sons will be summarily dealt with as
enemies of the government.

H|GH-CRADF STRIKE
ASSAYED Sl36,OOO

Shares of the National Leasing
Company were steady on the curb
during the week. says Rice's Indus
trial and Mining Age Under turn
over Of 1890 shares the stock sold 10
10 IA cents and down to 10 cents,
closing at II cents on Saturday, un-
changed from the final of the previous
week.
Advices received at the New York
Office of the company are to the effect
that under the supervision of Super
intendent Pfouts rapid progress is
being made In the work OF extending
the fifth level of the National mine
into the adjoining territory of the
National Leasing Company on the
south. The working Is following the
vein which in the National mine has
yielded high-grade ore to the value
of about s10,000,000. II is in search
of such an ore body that the manage
ment of the National Leasing Com
pany will explore its territory to great
depths, and work with that end in
view is being pushed as rapidly as
modern mining equipment will permit.
In view of the great wealth pro-
duced by the National mine, ii is easy
TO imagine the prize at stake in the
development of National Leasing hold
ings, which contain at least 700 feet
of the southern extension of the FAM
GUS National vein. This point was
the subject OF a famous suit which
resulted in a United States judge,
marshal and counsel adjourniDg to
the mine to examine the property.
and they determined. after hearing
expert testimony under oath, that the
vein penetrating National Leasing
ground Is actually the same vein that
made the National vein famous.
In the proceedings referred to, Mr..
Frank L. Taylor. then superintendent
of the mine. testified "The first-class
ore is worth from $40 to s75 or $50 a
pound. North of the Stall shaft we
took out OF a very small space $94.-
600. This bunch weighed nearly one
and a half tons"
Mr.. Taylor explained that this $94,
900 worth of ore was taken out in
less than four hours.
George Stall, one of the owners OF
the Stall lease on the National mine,
testified that one shipment of little
more than ton netted s68 pound,
or s1736.00 ton.
Mining Engineer Harrison testified
that the second-class ore assayed as
high as $4,000 a ton, and that ship
ment of high-grade ore weighing $500
or $4,000 a ton.
Charles Campbell, one Of the shift
bosses, testified that he alone, in an
eight-hour shift, took out 1,OS5 pounds
OF high-grade ore, while another shirt
boss took out a ton of ore in eight
hours work which netted 100000.
Robert s. Bolam, former superin-
tendent of the mine, stated that in six
and a half hours, with only one miner
as a helper. he took out S2S7 900 worm
OF high-grade ore. One specimen he
Skinned TO the Office of the National
Mines Company in Chicago which was
1856 pounds in weight and worth $9l.2f
pound.
The National Leasing Company was
