UPWARD TREND IN
PRICES FOR SILVER

A New York press dispatch of yes
terday MAY 81 says bar silver closed
n that market Thursday at $1O5A
which is an advance of 45s cents
since the government price restric-
ton was removed two days ago.
Silver sold in New York yesterday
afternoon at $1.10, according to tele-
gram received by Frank NJ. Manson
Of the Western Ore Purchasing Com
pany, from J. F. Coleman, a silver
broker of New York Coleman's
telegram said indications were that
silver would reach $1.25 before long.
Nevada mining men, says the Reno
Gazette, many of whom predicted the
price would go to SIPS, are highly
elated over the increase, as it means
more money for mines and mining in
Nevada.

PLANE STUDIED ITS
TOE GOING To ELKO

1t appears. to have been a case OF
what he most greatly feared coming
upon him, for he did hit something
and did pile up"
Lieutenant Curtis, pilot of the Cur
tiss airplane from Mather Field, Sac
ramento, which landed here yesterday
at 11:1S am. and left bound for Elko
an exact hour later, ran into trouble
after a forced landing at Carlin. be-
cause Of running out of gas.
Following replenishment of the
tank supply of gas at Carlin, Curtis
and his mechanic, Sergeant Lajotte.
again started on their journey
Ogdenward, but when attempting to
take the air the machine hit an en-
bankment near the Pacific Fruit Ex-
press ice house. The plane was de-
molished, Curtis got his nose skinned
and Lajotte got off without a scratch.
The flight for these airmen has been
abandoned.
This is the third time Curtis has
gotten into trouble trying to fly Ne
vada atmosphere. He was the pilo
who made the forced landing near
Carson City on March %, this year
having been one of the first airmen tc
come over the Sierras. That was the
time Governor Boyle rode back to
Mather Field from Carson with on
of the other aviators.
1t was Curtis plane which made a
forced landing at Carson on this trip
delaying the flight for the other air
men, Lieutenant Beck, who stopped
here Thursday with a big De Havi
land, and the pilot of the other Cur
tiss machine which did not stop here
but went direct from Lovelock to
Battle Mountain. This latter machine
got lost trying to find Battle Mountain
and landed fifteen miles from the
town. He was towed in to Battle
Mountain and went on to Elko.
The plane broken yesterday by Cur
tis at Carlin was of the Curtiss type
and was equipped with a Hespano
Suiza eight-cylinder motor, develop
ing $50 horsepower.
Conflicting reports (are received on
the two machines which reached Elko
safely. One report is that they left
Elko yesterday bound for Montello
and Ogden. The other report is that
they did not leave until this morning.
All three machines were scheduled to
take part in the Golden Spike" cele-
bration at Ogden today-the celebra-
ton of the fftieth anniversary of the
of the Central Pacific rail-
road, and incidentally Victory loan

PARTITION SUIT BROUGHT TO
DETERMINE EXACT TITLE

Suit was filed this morning in dis
trlct court by A. Z. Kent & Co. of Col
cCnda, through Campbell, Robins &
Salter, attorneys, praying for parti-
ton of lands owned with others
Eain, Winter, Stoddard, Griffith and
Strobe are named as being interested
in the lands involved. The suit is to
eouitably divide the property that
each owner may secure individual
title to that part owned. In case an
agreement can not be reached the
usual procedure is for the court to
order the property for sale and then
divide up the proceeds.

MATERIAL HAULED
AS MEETING IS HELD

The first directors meeting OF the
newly Incorporated Nevada Harmony
Mines Company was held here Thurs
day, at which time John l.. Hawley
was elected president. T. A. Brandon.
vice-president; F. A. Robinson, secre-
tary-treasurer; and G. B. Williams,
F. L. Reber and Carl Haviland, direc-
tors, the latter three also acting in
the capacity of executive committee.
The property of the new corpora
tion is located six miles east of Win
nemucca, near Harmony canyon, So
noma range. and the property owned
was formerly known as the Wolverine
group, the Red Rose, Harmony and
South End claims. The incorporation
papers named Winnemucca as the To-
cation for the principal Office of the
company, with F. A. Robinson, man.
ager of the Verdi Lumber Company,
as resident agent.
During the time occupied by the or
ganization meeting, skip, more rails
and ore cars were being hauled to the
mine, preparatory to extensive work
on the property. The shaft on VOL
VERNE No. l. which is now down 135
feet, is to be sunk 200 feet further
and drifts started from the 200 and
300 foot levels. This action was de-
cided upon because of the showing of
five feet of ore in the bottom of the
shaft, the orebody having spread out
one and one-half feet in the last
thirty-fve feet.
Ore in the Harmony shows silver,
copper and gold, predominating in the
order named. and it is said milling
ore has been found in seventy-two diff
ferent places on the property. In con-
temptation now is the erection of an
oil-fiotation mill on the property, con-
struction to start upon completion of
the work of sinking to the 335-foot
level.

SOLDIERS THREE IN
MANY HARD BATTLES

Three soldier boys, buddies in bat
ties with the Germans, in recreation
and tribulation, arrived in Winnie
mucca this morning from Fort Rus
sell, where they received their honor
able discharge papers Thursday. They
are Corporal Arthur ("Pug") Allen of
Golcpnda, Corporal Claud Reeves of
Paradise Valley and Guy Herd, whose
home is in Colusa, California.
After the three boys had enlisted
they were assigned to Company d.
saith Machine Gun Battalion, Ninety
first Division. They were in France
for nine months and saw the heaviest
actions in which Americans partici-
pated. First they were held in reserve
in the St Mihiel sector. On September
26, last year, Company d was sent in
t6 start the Meuse-Argonne offensive
and they consequently went through
the famous seventeen days of open
warfare on that front.
Coming out of the Meuse-Argonne
on October II for the purpose of get
ting requirements" that is more
doughboys to take the places of
those who didn't come out, they were
sent into Belgium, hiking for six
days of their eighteen days rest" to
reach the Ypres-Lys front. They got
irto action there on October 80 and
kept at it until the armistice was
signed, November IL. Only one of the
three buddies was wounded during
the fighting, and that was Reeves,
who was shot through the leg.
Allen and Herd will leave tomorrow
night for San Francisco. Reeves will
continue to his home in Paradise.
Allen expects to return to Golconda
to again make his home. Herd will
eventually go to his home in Colusa
It's all over for these boys, They've
completed their jobs. But it's a safe
bet that not one of them is without
Victory button, even with their
small pay. They took a chance with
their lives. gave up good positions to
take $50 per month, and bought bonds
of every issue. Will we. who stayed
home in safety because of their saeri-
flee, match them in buying bonds?

MAYOR ASKS PEOPLE

The Silver State did not know any,

Office was opened this morning. 1t is

the bankers, in subversion of their
own business interests, II may be, are
advising people to withdraw money
from deposit at per cent and buy
bonds-why, it's no time to worry
about newspapers.
The government - our government.
Of which we are proud-wants this
money. The government will take the
money. one way or another. 1t is
offering a splendid loan. at rate of
interest higher than any bank pays,
and with security which is better than
that of any bank in Christendom.
If people think to escape payment
by refusing the loan, then taxes will
be spread for the amount, and those
who pay taxes get no interest. They
get no money back. And the pathetic
thing about il all is that poor people
know perfectly well that the law
makers whom they elect to represent
them invariably soak" the little fell
low who cannot put up a fight to de-
fend himself
Poor people have learned. or should
have learned, that under our present
laws. If flour mill is taxed. it imme-
Giately spreads the tax upon the con-
sumner In the form of an advance in
price. Our lawmakers have not
learned to protect the poor against
this form of brigandage. They are
not a particularly learned set. any

And still worse, the servants" we
elect and bestow honor upon all too
