The party left Wallis at D. m. for
7-hour ride to the Volcano House

easy and the congressman expressed
surprise at the roads.
Il never imagined you had such
good roads through this stretch of

way the long line of machines swept
into the higher lava-strewn lands
where scrawniness in all its phases
was emphasized. Yet the uniqueness
of the scene held the interest of the
visitors as the party passed on from
highland where the lava flows of
hundreds and thousands Of years ago
had been screened oyer by trees anG

few cattle doing their best to nibble

Of foliage; the effect of the drought
on the land was very apparent; some
of the cattle were lean and scrawny !;
everything looked burned. g.
Varied expressions of wonder were
voiced as from a sudden turn in the

The Volcano House was reached

Attorneys for the territory In the
Waimea water case-Judge Antonio
Perry and Deputy Attorney General
Arthur G. Smith--teday expressed
strong qualification at the supreme
court decision late yesterday passing
upon the, action instituted by Alfred
w. Carter as trustee Of the Parker
ranch.
The suit was begun in 1914 and the
purpose was to quiet title to water
rights in the Waikoloa stream.
I'VE feel that the decision is sub
stantial victory for the territory, said
the attorneys today. 1T saves to the
territory the Waimea water system in
tact and disallows to the petitioner, in
the main, thequantity of water claimed
Byg him. { u -. i. s-s
The supreme court held that on the
facts the petitioner had failed in this
case to support his claim to the large
amount of waters cont for in the
petition = - s..
On this point the court said sub
stantially as follows:
= when in a case of this kind the
evidence furnishes a reasonably def
mite bases for determining the guam
titys or the proportion of the normal
flow of the stream or ditch to which
certain land is entitled, either by time
or quantity, itsis proper for the court
to make a definite adjudication in that
respect. Nevertheless, the
authority of the court is limited to as
pertaining; determining, defining and
enforcing proven rights The weak.

Nevada State News

The Elko Free Press is informed
by the officers that the revenue from
the tax on liquor stored in Elko will
amount to more than $50. 900. and
that there is more than 80, 900 gallons
of spirits owned by private parties.
This will include whiskey. wines and
liquors.
Property owners of Carlin. in Elko
County, have petitioned the commits
sioners asking that the saloons be
ordered closed from 10 o'clock at
night until Z o'clock the next morn
ing. The petition vas signed by
two-thirds of the property owners
and two of the saloonmen.
George Brodigan. Secretary of
State. says that so far this year ap-
proximately 6.70O automobiles have
been licensed in Nevada. giving an
average of two machines for every
seven registered males over the age
of q years or more and one for each
Is persons in the State-which is a
very creditable showing.
Despite the fact that the Duckwater
district. in northeastern Nye
County. was blessed with bountiful
crops this year, ranchers there state
they have been unable to market
their crops owing to the long distance
to a suitable market point. They
have fed the apple crop to the hogs.
which can be brought to market
| easier than apples.
A package containing diamonds
and money taken by bandits who
held up the Deep Creek railroad
train on Oct. Is was recovered on a
mountainside several miles west of
Gold Hill by Sheriff D. M. Adamson
and a deputy Of Toole County. Utah,
following a confession by several OF
the men alleged to have been impli.
Gated. The loot did not amount to
a great deal, not enough to repay
the bandits for their trouble. None
of the packages had been opened and
it is believed the bandits overestimat.
ed the value of the contents.

Sexton. general manager of the Eu-

entertaining even if sometimes bel

to the Governor he says:
81 note in the Gazette" of the
eighth that there is a possibility of
an extra session of the Legislature
being called. and if so, Isuggest that
there be incorporated a provision tc
change the State game law so that
all men subject to draft for war pur'
poses may have the privilege of OBJ
tanning hunting licenses on equa
terms with any citizens. We flint
that some of our men who have ia
ken out their first papers. and wht
have been drafted into the service o.

for some kinds of hunting licenses
and that others are not allowed t.

ducts under President Wilson's proc
lamation requiring every baker ex-
cept those using less than ten barrels
of flour and meal monthly to take

administration to-day. Both procla-
nation and regulations seek to
standardize bread making. eliminate
waste and confusing sizes, force
prices down and otherwise help con-
sumers generally.
While prices are not to be fixed,
fancy breads are to be eliminated
and all bread baked in regular sizes
of one, one and a half, two and four
pounds, with a midway increase on
each to permit the sale of half a loaf.
Fixed standard weights are to lei
consumers know which loaf is really
the cheapest. Three pounds of sugar
instead of six are to be allowed for a
barrel of -four and two pounds OF
vegetable oil instead of six pounds OF

ASK

Saturday Evening Post: The War
Department has the names and ad-
dresses of about ten million men be-
tween 81 and 81 years of age. Two
or three millions of them we're called
up last Summer, examined as to
physical condition and dependents,
and either put into training camps
or exempted. The Department is
about to question the others in order
to find out how suitable they are for
military service. When it gets
through the Government will have
a tenth of the population sorted and
classified; it will know just about
what it can depend upon from them.
The Treasury Department has the
names of about 1000 plutocrats. pos
sesing incomes of one hundred thous-
and dollars a year and upward. Tax
laws will pretty effectually tap their
financial serviceability to the Nation.
The remaining nine-tenths of the
population remains mostly under the
general heading of .Unsarted and
Miscellaneous. But. of course. it is
that nine-tenths which finally must
win the war.
1t ought to be subjected to a ques'
tionnaire similar to that which the
War Department is addressing to
men under the selective draft. but
more comprehensive. That task is
too complicated for the Government;
but it should be done voluntarily.
You. as one of the nine-tenths.
should Immediately take up this ex'
amining and sorting-addressing tt
yourself the following questions:
How much of my ordinary con
sumption of wheat. beef. bacon and
sugar can | forego?
How many cigars. ice-cream sodas
neckties, fancy hand bags and theatre
tickets am / going to contribute
monthly to the Red Gross?
How much of my income-not by
haphazard and intermittent impulse,
but by a rigid day-to-day system
atized economy-can l put into war
savings certificates and Liberty bond'
during the next year?
If Mr.. Hoover and Secretary Nc
Adoo should sit down across the
table from you and ask those ques.
tions you would search your mine
very seriously and pledge yourself
to the extent of your ability. Ifyol
had a formal printed blank, under
the seal of the Government. you
would think it over carefully and pu'
down the tallest answers your cir
cumstances permitted.
Just imagine those accessories. ant
give yourself such answers that your
self will be proud of you.
