WESTERN PACIFIC MAY
PURCHASE N..C..O. INTERESTS

Reports have been current for
several weeks at Alturas, Cal, that
the Western Pacific might acquire the
Nevada-C California; Oregon railway as
one of the system of feeders contem-
plated. This rumor has been revived
by the visit of President Levy of the
Western Pacific and President Moran
of the MOO, says the Gazette.
The two officials made a trip over
the entire system, stopping at the
principal stations, and data was
gathered as to the prospective pro-
duction of the territory.
At Lakeview, the project of large
lumber development being centered
there is again under discussion. The
plan has been to tap the vast timber
tracts by building short lines of rail-
road from the main line.

"PEAk SISTERS" DELIGHTED
FAIR.SIZED AUDIENCE

Last evening at the high school, the
musical novelty, Peak Sisters" was
presented in delightful manner by
girls of the local Epworth League.
Their splendid efforts met with en-
thusiastic appreciation from the fair
sized audience in attendance. Some
of those who witnessed the entertain
ment expressed wish that it might
be repeated in the near future in or
der that the folks who could not
attend last evening might have an OPP
portunity to enjoy this production by
home talent.
The play proved financial success
also and the girls thereby are assisted
materially in meeting their expenses
at the Epworth League Institute at
Lake Tahoe, which will convene this

to the Fernley Enterprise as follows
Talk about bad roads; the Hazen-
Fallon route is a boulevard compar red
to the Lovelock- -Imlay road. For a
distance of fourteen miles they are
simply impossible. The best time
one can make is about two miles per

WESTERN PACIFIC MAY EXTEND
IT'S LINE TO SUSANvILLE

Extension of the Western Pacific
railroad into the great Susanville-
Westwood lumber district is regarded
as virtually assured by persons in
close touch with railroad affairs, says
the Reno Gazette.
The new line will branch from the
present Indian Valley railroad at
Crescent Mills and will proceed east
u, Lake Almanor- to Westwood and
thence to Susanville. The Indian
Valley railroad was built three years
ago to afford transportation for the
Engles mine and connected with the
Western Pacific at Paxton.
1t is said that the fact that the
Southern Pacific received more than
one million dollars from lumber ship
ments in the Westwood-Susanville
district during 1919 has prompted the
Western Pacific to also enter that
field.

FUSION TICKET TO
BEAT ELKO DIVISION

With the eastern port of Elko coun-
ty clamoring to be allowed to set up
their own government, and the two
counties to the west and south cast
ing yearning eyes at the western part
Of Elko county. there is a decided
sentiment that the assembly ticket
must contain the names of four men
who can be dependen upon to stand
firm against county division, says the
Free Press, and with this in view a
fusion ticket is being talked of, and
call will soon be issued by the Re-
publican and Democrats central COM
mittees for joint meeting, when four
men will be selected, two Republicans
and two Democrats.
Who the fusion candidates will be is
not yet decided, nor will they be un-
til after the meeting. The Republi-
cans are talking about c. E. Murphy
and Tracy Fairchilds. ST., both Of
whom have served terms in the legis-
lature and who gave good service and
made splendid lawmakers. Murphy
is from Starr Valley and Fairchilds
is from Tuscarora. The Democrats
are talking of E. C.. Riddell OF Starr
Valley, James Byers of Lamoille, and
j. M. Mcnamara of Elko.
With the probability of a new rail-
road from Twin Falls south to Wells,
the creation of new county with
Wells as a county seat, has been
given a new impetus, and the plan is
to include the valleys of Starr and
Ruby. But the residents of these two
valleys oppose, to person, this pro-
posed change and will fight the divi-
sion plan to a finish, on the grounds
that they are satisfied with the pres
ent county government, and that the
creation of a new county would entail
the expenditure of thousands of dol
lars to build new county buildings,
thus increasing their taxes.
The registry books indicate the
trend of the prevailing sentiment of
the voters in Elko county. Up to date
s.aeie Eas r-.,sr sss i = names added
to the roll of which 109 have ex-
pressed themselves as Republicans
and sixty-six as Democrats. There
were fifty-eight who registered, but
failed to designate their party af1lia-
tions, and the most of these have
voted the Democratic ticket in the
past and are breaking away from
their old ties. 1t is a cinch that they
will vote for the Republican candi-
date for President. but for personal
reasons prefer not to come out too
openly with their desertion of the old
party.

And how this wonderful Book APP,
peals to every heart and soul and
mind that is not empty! The Jewess
accidentally falls upon it, and is SO
thrilled that the Christ becomes her
Saviour. Another Jew, Eidersheim
is conquered by the Master. Christ
and he writes the most complete Life
of Christ, because he is both Christian
and Jew. The Jew did not feel need
of the New Testament, but here he
found the KEY to his own scriptures.
The Church at first Jewish sect, af-
ter the destruction of the Temple,
becomes the Catholic Church, the
worldwide expression of Gods love.
Now, of course, there were many
other letters written by Christians in
those times, but these were selected
by the Church under guidance of God
! as having been written under inspira-
ton of the Holy Spirit. They do not
pretend to teach a complete theology
nor how to create a Church; but they
are memories of Christ written down
necessary sermons on certain doc
trines needed to be preached at the
time, for correction of errors and
| abuses and so on. For instance: "If
any would not work, neither should
he eat, was spoken to loafers, and
not to children. In another place
Repent and be baptized, was not
said to children, but to those who had
sinned. Suffer the little children to
come unto me and forbid them not"
was plea for them; and "Of such is
the Kingdom of Cod, showed their
natural home.
In Acts we are told, "He was with
them forty days teaching things con-
corning the Kingdom of God" be-
fore His Ascension. In obedience to
instructions given then, the Apostles
aeted:-preaching the Gospel; bap-
thing; laying on-of- hands; ordaining
deacons, presbyters, bishops; welcom-
ing the Jews; celebrating Holy Com
munion as sacrament of Christ's
body and blood spiritually received.
And from these "Acts" we must gath
er what He taught
And so in the Bible we find the
Christ, the Fountain of Life. We shall
find there lessons for life in every
grade, circumstance and condition.
So the scriptures are precious, if in
them we find the Christ; otherwise
they are worthless. God speaks to
our hearts and minds in them, if we
will Let them be read in the spirit
of prayer, realizing the presence of
His Holy Spirit. Understand that
the Word that was made flesh and
lived among us, is now speaking to us
in the words of others directed by
His Spirit. And so we shall find the
Christ and Eternal Life.
