REVISED PLANS Of
COURTHOUSE HERE

Revised plans and specification for
Humboldt county's new courthouse
were received this morning by County
Clerk Davey. The new plans call
for practically the same style of build
ing as did the former ones. except
that the size is to be 88x88 feet. in
stead of 90x90. 1t is also noted that
wooden floors are provided for the up
per story, instead of tile. The build
ing is to consist of two stories and
mezzanine. Four kinds of exterior
finishings are provided for.
1t appears likely the county COM
missioners will again face a situation
similar to that of a month ago, in that
no bids may be filed. The date set for
opening bids is August and II is said
seven days is not sufficient time for
contractors to make up their bids, Sc
cure prices, etc. 1t is probable. how
ever, that bids for excavating will be
submitted.

MARRIED VS.. SINGLE
TO PLAY BASEBALL

Because of the inability of the Elko
baseball team to come here next Sun
day to play their scheduled game with
the Winnemucca baseball team, a con-
test has been arranged which is per-
haps causing more interest. The
married men are going to play against
the single boys. Stewart Erskine is
to captain the oldtimers, while Howell
Huffaker will guide the destinies of
the kids and says to watch the grace
full, lighting-quick baseball playing Of
an unknown small-boy second base
man. Line-ups have not yet been
completed. An admission of twenty
five cents is to be charged for the
game next Sunday.
Another disappointing letter has
been received by Manager Travers,
saying that the scheduled game here
with the Sparks team must be can
celled because of disbandment of that
organization. He announces re-
vised schedule for games to be played
here as follows: Elko, August 10,
Loyelock, Sunday, August 81. and
Monday Labor Day., September l.
1t is possible Fallon may play here
August II. The game with the Reno
Eiks has been called off because OF
too high cost.

TORTURED FEET

Don't cut your corns. The trimming
of corns can only give temporary re-
lief at best. The cutting is apt to
cause serious complications, such as
blood poisoning, etc. The thing to do
is to rid yourself entirely of corns by
using Corn Collode. You cannot use
this preparation long without losing
all Of your corns. Warm weather is
trying on your feet, but you can get
great relief by using our special foot
powder. which will stop sweating of
the feet.

WORKING
OF OIL FINANCING

Now that Nevada people are SO
much interested in the question of oil
because of exploration in this State.
the following letter from young man
well known in Winnemucca will be
Of special interest as relating some
incidents of actual experience in the
Texas fields:
Editor The Silver State:
The more one learns about this oil
game the more fascinating it be-
comes. There are other opportuni-
ties for profit in it besides buying
stock in the various companies:
/ discovered a new--to me-source
of profit last week when a friend of
mine who Is in constant touch with
the situation in the field went down
to Desdemona and bought an interest
amounting to one one hundred and
twenty-eighth Q-128) Of the total pro-
duction-in certain oil well before
it had been drilled deep enough to hit
oil OF course he took a risk with his
money, because If the well did not hit
oil his money would be absolutely lost.
However, this well was located only
one hundred feet from a well that was
producing 1000 barrels of oil day,
and about $50 feet from one produc-
ing 1000 barrels day--in other words
it was in what is called proven terri
tory.
This man came back to Thurber,
cut his 1-128 into thirty-two parts,
making each part then good for one
four thousand and ninety-sixth
1-4096) of the total amount of oil
produced from the well, and sold
them. Forty-eight hours later the
well hit oil and came in producing
between 1000 and 5000 barrels of oil
a day. The holder of one of these
shares will now receive about one
barrel of oil day, or its equivalent.
s2.25, which figures out $67.5O a
month. Pretty fair interest on $125,
the price of the shares before the well
hit oil.
The buyer of a share of this, or
other, production gets deed to it,
just as he would to a piece of land.
This deed is recorded at the county
seat of the county in which the land
is located. The pipe line company
that buys the oil from this well looks
up the county record of deeds and
once a month mails its check direct
to the owners of the shares of pro-
duction, as shown in the county rec
ords, for his or her share of the pro-
duction of the we'll. The owners OF
these shares of production have no
dealings with the company that owns
the well. And they need not worry
whether the stock of the company
goes up or down.
They get theirs just as long as the
well produces a barrel of OIL In case
the owner of one of these shares sells
it to some one else the one that buys
it has to send the deed to the county
seat of the county in which the well
is located and have it recorded, else
the former owner will continue to re-
ceive the checks from the pipe line

SENATOR APPLECARTH
ENDORSES HARMONY PLAN

Issues Statement Advocating Party
Harmony as THE Surest Means OF
EIecting The Ticket.
Former State senator William F.
Applegarth, who has recently re-
turned from Baltimore, where he
attended the conference of Democrats
called by the State Central Commit
tee, today issued the following state
ment:
Fellow Democrats: The infor-
NAL call of the State Central Com
mittee would seem, in my opinion, to
require the cooperation Of every
Democrat, as it, holds out hope
that harmony and united party
might result, on a basis Of justice
and equal rights to all elements and
every individual Democrat, and on
this basis only can success ever be
obtained in the county, State or Ma
tional party.
LET us, too, make league among
ourselves, if it can be formed on
that basis. Sincerely,
"WM. F. APPLEGARTH.
