government and its allies really mar
rows the margin between probable
output in the second half Of the year
and the requirements for war. Lead
ing steel manufacturers up to this
week have taken the view that the
situation would be easier in a few
months. They are less confident Of
that now
Actual procedure under the new
classification Of orders is not far from
what has been followed. Some pro
ducers are even more exacting than
before now that they are asked by
the government 10 decide as to pre-
cedcnce in shipment.
The meeting of the steel producers
committee and the director of steel
supply in New York Monday brought
no conclusion as to steel rail and
other pending prices. Only 100, 900
tons additional rails are wanted for
this year and the railroad administra-
ton wants the, price fixed chiefly in
view of large purchases to be made
for 1919. The stand taken for a $42
price for BCSsemer rails is in the face
Of an average cost OF $50 or more and
the contention Of one producer that it
should have $50 for Bessemer and
sos for opon-hearth rails
A possible solution Of the rail con-
trOVersy is the payment of different
prices to different mills in view of
widely different costs. This might be
worked. seeing that the government
will take nearly all the output.
1t now appears certain that the
open hearth steel output of the coun-
try will be practically taken up by war
and essential needs for the remainder
of the year and that whatever permits
are given for general or class y pur-
poses must he filed almost entirely
with Bessemer steel.
The plate mills keep on producing
at a yearly rate of 5000 600 tons. n

While new capacity may bring the
rate up to 7.000.000 tons a year by

Data are being gathered on which
question may be raised with the Brit
ish mission as to the nature and eX-
tent Of British exports of steel. The
Canadian steel trade is involved in A
measure also. Some Canadian steel
has been sold in New England at high
prices to nOncssentiaI industry. yet
large shipments of American steel are
being made to Canada at control
prices An amicable exchange on the
whole question is possible, in view Of
the cOnsidera BILE amounts Of American
steel for which Great Britain has

Commencement EXERCISES
TO Be HELD IN HIGH SCHOOL
Attractive Programs of Song and
Presentation of sOperetta by
Miss Geissler's Class

The present week is one of hustle
in the various schools of the county
marking as 1t does the close of the
school year. Unusual preparations
have been made for commencement
exercises in the High School, these
consisting of exhibitions by Miss
Geissler's Exhibition class. To all
of these exercises the public is cor
daily invited, there being no admis-
sion fee to either of the programs.
1t should be understood that al
though the use of the term exhibit
ton seems unavoidable, the exer-
cises are in no sense intended as
demonstrations of artistic ability full
filed. The exercises are merely in
the form of class work and just such
exhibitions as form part of the daily
routine work and intended to incul-
cate self confidence or in another
sense to assist in overcoming the
awkwardness incident to youth.
This evening at O'Clock the pro-
gram will consist of three short
plays, Mrs. Coulson's Daughter
"The Teeth of the Gift Horse, and
THE Rag Carpet Bee" Tomorrow
Thursday evening will be presented
a charming Chinese operetta, EMIT

FUNERAL OF MARK WILDES
UNUSUALLY IMPRESSIVE
Governor and staff and Immense
Concourse of Friends Pay
Homage to Departed

The funeral of the late Mark l..
In the High School auditorium,
drew together a concourse of people
exceeding in point of numbers any
gathering ever assembled in this val
.ey. 1t was estimated that 1900 was
conservative figure of those as
semDled in the spacious hall. The
.arge auditorium was crowded to re-
pletion and after the opening of the
services not even standing room was
available. Many came from distant
parts of the state and nearly every
walk in life was represented.
Through an accident to his car,
Adjutant General Maurice ]. Sulli-
van, who with party of officials and
members of the governors staff left
larson that morning, was delayed
beyond the hour of the funeral.
The exercises were of an unusual
, impressive character and through
out the service there was evidenced
! feeling of personal loss in the pas
sing of the one in whose memory
they had met 1t was also
apparent that deep as was their SYM
pathy for tie deceased there were
indications that their presence was a
.ebuke to the sinister Influences in
our midst that were responsible for
tie death of this faithful officer.
Governor Emmett ID. Boyle immed-
lately upon receiving word that Mark
aildes had lost in his heroic battle
for life and recognizing that this life
vas given in the service of his
country, ordered that suitable ar
-ngements be made for a military
.uneral.
At two O'Clock the funeral cortege
ed by Governor Boyle and members
-,f his staff mounted, followed by the
anights of Pythias, Order of Eastern
star. Pythian Sisters and Rebekahs
,ook up the line of march at the late
.esidence of the deceased and pas
ed up Maine Street to the High
school where the Governor and staff
nd fraternal organizations were lin
d on either side of the walk through

carers were Judge T. c. Hart, Dis

The beautiful casket was draped
with the American flag and was de-

the profusion of floral tributes were
4stefully arranged. The services

SPLENDID EXHIBIT BY MAN.
UAL TRAINING DEPARTMENT

There will be an exhibit by the
manual training department in the
library of the High School, Wednes-
day, Thursday and Friday of this
week, before and after the hours of
graduation exercises. The exhibit
will cover the last five months work
of the school and is worthy the at
tention of every one interested in
the broader development of our
youth.
The present time proves the i'm
portance of this useful but unfor-
tunately, too often neglected branch
of the education of our boys, and
since the coming of Professor Nut
ten, with his larger experience and
enthusiasm for his work, the boys
have taken on a new interest and
the products of their hands give
proof of their rapid advancement.

IRRIGATION PLANS
SHOULD Be PERFECTED
Commissioners Will Meet Next We'd
nesday When Farmers Should
BE Present With Bond

The farmers of this valley have
before them another opportunity of
forming an Irrigation district and
through that organization guard
against land deterioration.
The Board of Commissioners will
hold the regular meeting next We'd
nesday, June 5, and unless prepara-
tions are made in advance of that
meeting for an election to be held at
an early date the matter will again
go by default.
Nowhere has there developed an
objection TO the formation OF an Ir-
rigation district. but as was stated
in the Standard on 4 former occa-
sion, the lack is merely in leader
ship.
There is ample time in which to
formulate plans for the coming meet
ing of the Board and to communi-
cate with Judge L. N. French in Reno
whose interest in the matter was re-
sponsible for his presence at the last
meeting of the Board where lie prov
ed to be the sole advocate of the
movement so essential TO the welfare
of every rancher in the valley. This
appeal should not fall on deaf ears
this time and each district should

In the annals of the criminal history
of the west, no more successful man
hunt Is recorded than the trailing
TO his death OF Paul Walters, the
cowardly murderer of Sheriff Mark
Wildes.
From the moment of the receipt of
the message bringing to Fallon the
brief announcement of the shooting
there was grim determination that
the death of the sheriff must be
avenged, and quickly a posse was
organized and hurried to the scene
of the murder. which they never left
until their mission was fulflled.
The hunt was conducted under
the leadership of Deputy Jim Smith.
and amongst the traiiers were four
Indians whose presence subsequent
events proved to be invaluable
These natives with the almost su-
per-natnrai cunning and dogged per
sistence OF their raee could not be
swayed from their belief that the
outlaw had not escaped from the To-
cality.
This conviction they clung to even
after other posses had flouted the
idea that Walters was concealing
himself in the neighborhood.
Nothing in the way of footprints
or impressions On the trails escaped
the keen eyes of these hunters but
for time they admitted that they

certain footprints, but this mystery
~as solved by the discovery that the
hunted man had removed the hob
nails from his shoes. wrapped these
in a paper and hid them behind a
rock, although three of these nails
remained In the heel of one shoe
causing an impression In the ground
similar TO that made by goat.
In spite of rare cunning and re-
course to many devices. the murder
er failed to throw his pursuers off
the scent and on the morning of the
day on which he met his fate the
trailers were confident that they
we're closing in on him. even though
not once during the five days had
they caught even a glimpse of him.

FREE LEGAL AID TO
RETURNING SOLDIERS

Little Rock, Nov. 29.-The State
Council of Defense has been request
ed by Adit. Gen. Harris to continue
the legal aid committees to give free
legal aid to returning soldiers under
the civil relief act The need for COM
petent legal aid in rehabilitation is
greater than in the period of mobili-
zation. The soldier is protected from
litigation only so long as he is in the
military service. He becomes a civil
ian in the eyes of the law two months
before he is required to cease wearing
the uniform and must act promptly
to secure full protection of the civil
relief act. This legal protection is a
duty the people owe the soldier.

FIREW ORkS DURING HOLl-
DAYS TO BE DISCOURAGED

Little Rock, Nov 29.-The action of
the Bureau of Mines in releasing re-
strictions upon the sale of explosives
does not alter the attitude of the
State Council of Defense toward the
sale and use of fireworks during the
Christmas holidays.
The State Council of Defense has
re-affrmed and emphasized the posi-
ton taken a year ago that the sale
and use of fireworks during the holi-
day season should be discouraged in
every possible way Aside from the
growing opposition in the South to
this manner of celebrating Christmas,
the discontinuance of fireworks on
this occasion is urged as a measure
for the conservation of life, limb and
property.
The County Councils of Defense
have been requested to take this mat
ter up with their local merchants and
request an observance of this sugges-
tion.
