That portion of the railroad extend

The total mileage of the Las Vegas

Las Vegas to Gooldfield, is 1877 miles.
The Las Vegas & Tonopah was pro-

Smith planned TO operate the road in

Since the taking over of most of the

These calculations were compiled by

while their accuracy is not vouched

substantially correct.
For purely military and naval pur'

President viii Go Abroad for
Purpose of Attending the

LEAVES IN DECEMBER
Official Announcement Says Chief
Executive Will Sail Immediately
After Converting of the
Next Congress.

Washington, Nov. 20. - President
Wilson has decided to attend the
opening sessions of the peace confer
ence.
This was announced officially. He
will go Immediately after the owen
ing of the regular session Of Con-
gress on Dec. q.
This official statement was issued
at the White House:
"The President expects to sail for
France Immediately after the opening
of the regular session of Congress, for
the purpose of taking part in the dis.
cussion and settlement of the main
features of the treaty of peace.
Must Leave Early.
at is not likely that it will be pos
sible for him to remain throughout
the sessions of the formal peace con
ference, but his presence at the out
set is necessary in order to obviate
the manifest disadvantages of discus
sions by cable in determining the
greater outlines of the financial treaty
about which he must necessarily be
consulted.
HE will, of course, be accom-,
panied by delegates, who will sit as
the representatives of the United
States throughout the conference
The names of the delegates will be
presently announced"
How long the President will remain
abroad he probably cannot say now
Establishes Two Precedents.
In visiting Europe the President
will establish two ~precedents. He
will be the first chief executive OF
the United States to participate in a
peace conference for the settling of Is.
lei growing out of a war in which
this country participated and likewise
he will be the first president to leave
North America during his term of
office.
Since the suggestion that the Presi.
dent attend the peace conference first
was made there has been much dis
cussion as to whether, when absent
from this country, he would continue
to act as President. The Constitu'
tion itself is silent on the question.
Taft, Roosevelt Retained Functions.
Both President Taft and President
Roosevelt continued to perform the
functions of their Office while on visits
to the Canal Zone, sending instruc
tions to Washington both byv cable
and wireless.
1t was pointed out that the Presi
dent in this name could attend tc
any pressing matters of Importance
here while he is abroad.
The President probably will cross
the Atlantic on an American battle
ship, probably on one of the navy's
newest dreadnaughts.
While on such a ship, it is claimed
he is on American territory and tech
nically would be absent from the
country only such time as he is &C
tually on foreign soil.
