FLY FOUR AMERICAN FLAGS
OVER AS MANY PLANTS TODAY

Following out the policy OF display
ing the Stars and Stripes from every
shop Of the p. B. and W. railroad at
Todd's Cut. employees of the boiler shop
at noon today. unfurled a large flag
with appropriate ceremonies.
Leon T. Arts, foreman Of the boiler
making department presided over the
exercises. Music was furnished by the
/ Pennsylvania Railroad Athletic Associa-
tlon Band and an address was made by
former Judge Daniel o. Hastings.
Mr.. Hastings said he was glad TO be
present for two reasons because Of
the patriotic significance Of the exer-
cises. and also because he had been a
railroad man. He recalled 90 his hear
ers that he worked as a clerk in the
railroad freight Offices while he studied
law.
Mr.. Hastings launched into a patri-
otic address that stirred his hearers. He
pointed out that the time for arguing
as TO the causes OF the war had gone.
The United States Is now in the conflict
and that should be sufficient 10 cause
every loyal American 60 stand solidly
behind the government for the success
ful and speedy prosecution OF the war.
Judge Hastings pictured the sacrifices
made by men who have gone into the
army, and he urged that any sacrifice
OF pleasures or money or time that
might be made by persons who stay at
home would not be so great as sacri-
fees the soldiers IN camp or In France
might be called upon to IIlke or might
make 10 protect those at home and TO
assure liberty FOR the world. Judge
Hastings pointed out that safety OF the
country might be imperiled as much
by the Stacker in civilian life, as by
the military Stacker. His assertion
that the war would have 10 90 on
until victory Is achieved by the Allied
arms brought great applause.
William B. Gem, OF No. 705 Van
Buren street, former foreman OF the
boiler shop, but now retired. made a
comparison OF the days when he was
connected with the Pennsylvania rail-
road as foreman and the rapid way the
work is now carried on in his former
department.
Sergeant Shour, OF the army recruit
ing station, and a sailor, who repre-
sented the navy. also spoke briefly.

WRIGHT STILL UNCONyINCED
OF ANY GOOD IN HEARSTISM

Editor Silver Sttae:
The disclosures being made in the
congressional investigation in refer
ence to Hearst's propaganda in favor
of Germany are growing more inter-
esting each day. and already the ques-
tion is being asked. What will be-
come of IIearst's papers will the
government take them over and place
custodians in charge to run them, or
will the plants be junked?"
Another pertinent question is, MAY
not the situation become extremely
embarrassing to those Senators and
Congressman who rode on Hearst's
special train and ate at his ban
quets?"
Nevada may feel proud that none
of her representatives was in the
bunch.
If any one is going to subscribe for
the Examiner. now is the time. for
Hearst is getting in worse every day
and needs every supporter he can get.

Mining ACTIVITIES
OF GEORGE SHOUP

In the district court letters of ad-
ministration have been issued to d. S,
Ewing, a prominent attorney of Fres-
no. Cal, in the estate of George J.
Shoup, deceased, bonds being placed
at $4,000.
George j. Shoup was well known
here as one of the successful mining
promoters of the State, and his estate
appraised at more than $4,000, con-
sisted mainly of stock in Jarbidge
mines and in mining property at Mi
das. In connection with Jake Creigh-
ton, a bond and lease was taken on
what was originally known as the
Long Hike group of claims in the Jar
bidge district, owned by Ossie Miller
and Herb Sproule.
Mr.. Shoup started development and
in a short time struck the ledge
Realizing that the property needed
more capital than they could secure
Messrs. Shoup and Creighton inter-
ested the Guggenheimers, who, after
an exhaustive examination, took over
the property at a figure which made
the two men independently wealthy
This property today is known as the
Elkoro Mining Company, and is con-
sidered one of the big gold mines Of
the State of Nevada. 1t is producing
thousands of dollars in gold daily.
Mr.. Shoup then turned his attention
to Gold Circle and took a bond and
lease on the Missing Link and Reco
group of claims from NJ. J. Paisley
and during the past year the claims
have been developed to such an extent
that the building of mill was war
ranted, and it was for this purpose
that Shoup went to San Francisco
where he died.
He was a young man, less than 40
years of age, and his wife and daugh-
ter lived in San Francisco. He was
shrewd mining operator and had he
lived would have, no doubt, become
one of the mining magnates of the
West. His death will not stop the
plans of developing the Gold Circle
mines, and when spring opens the mill
will be erected. Curler & Castle are
the local attorneys in charge of the
estate in Elko county.-[Elko Free

CALL IT PERSHING
TRANSPORT ROUTE

AS a fitting memorial to Americas
great general who was born and spent
his boyhood along this trail, the Pixies
Peak Ocean-to-Ocean Highway is to
be designated "The Pershing Trans
port Route" In fact, this transconti-
mental highway passes right in front
of the old Pershing home at Laclede,
Missouri, where John j. Pershing
spent the days of his boyhood and
early manhood, and from the steps
of which he bade his parents good
bye when he left for West Point to
begin the military career which has
led him to the great command at the
head of the American expeditionary
forces in France.
BY reason of its direct, central
alignment and its many logical ad
vantages, the Pixies Peak Ocean-to-
Ocean Highway has come to be known
these last few months as "the mill
tary-commercial main line across the
United States; and when the sugges-
tion was made that the Missouri di-
vision of this highway be designated
in commemoration of it's distinguished
son. the highway transport committee
of the national Council of Defense
through the chief of the field section
at Washington, DC. congratulated H
w. Graham. director of Missouri dis.
trict No. of the highways transport
committee. upon this happy selection
1t then seemed appropriate to Pres
ident C. F. Adams of the national
route organization that the entire
road, stretching its $500 miles from
Philadelphia and New York City
across the breadth of the land to San
Francisco, bear this fitting name;
and this recommendation has also re-
ceiyed the favorable comment of the
national highways transport commit
tee. FIJI
So henceforth the great central,
scenic transcontinental route will be
known as "The Pixies Peak Ocean-to-
Ocean Highway-The Pershing Trans
port Route" and with the development
that will come through the inspira-
tion of such a name il will become
the great artery of travel for the ma
tion's commerce and military trans
port
Already. in Missouri. the movement
has been started from the presidents
office at Chillicothe to organize in
every community along this highway
"Pershing Hard Roads Club" with
the avowed Etention of bringing
about the early and permanent con1
struction Of such a highway as is be-
fitting to be a proper memorial to
General Pershing.

RIDICULOUS STORIES OF SICK
NESS IN TONOPAH EXPOSED

Reports of new cases of influence
have been rife for several days. and

NURSES NOW SABE
UNBOULEVARDED

As the result of exposure when the
automobile which was rushing them
to the aid of sick kpeople became
stalled on a bitter cold night, two
Red Cross nurses sent to Winnemucca
IRON San Francisco are lying critic
ally i'll at DEMO, near the Nevada
Oregon line in Humboldt county.
The two nurses are Mrs. Clara Gel
ger and Mrs. Johns, both of San Fran
cisco.
The two reached Winnemucca last
week and started by automobile for
DEMO the same evening, refusing to
heed the warnings of persons who
are acquainted with the country and
who urged them to wait until morn
ing to begin their hazardous journey
through the snow, saying they were
needed and must reach the patients
at once.
After travelling for many miles
through the snow something went
wrong with the machine and the
driver was unable to repair it, There
were no wraps in the car and the
women were thinly clad.
After remaining in the car for an
hour or two while the driver at
tempted to start it. they started to
walk through the snow to the nearest
roadhouse, ten miles distant They
reached the place in state of col
lapse after hours of walking, and
both were so exhausted from the eff
forts and so overcome from the ex-
posure that they became i'll at once
They remained at the roadhouse until
the following day, when they were
taken to Denio
From Winnemucca to DEMO is
about 100 miles through a country
sparsely settled, with farm houses or
road houses about twenty miles apart.
The road is rough and the trip is
hard one at any time.-[Reno Gazette
