The county commissioners met this
morning in regular monthly session,
Mr.. Ellison being absent on account

In response to the notice to bidders,
representatives of two machinery
houses were on hand to submit bids
for gravel leaders. One Denver and
Salt Lake City house and one Oakland
firm were represented. They were
given hearing this afternoon.
The plans and specifications for the

MAMMOTH RAILROAD
BUSINESS EXPECTED

The Sparks shops will go on a
nine-hour day schedule. The new
order of things will add about one
sixth to the payroll of this department
of the railroad plant and will mean
an aggregate increase of some $2O,-
600 in the amount of money paid out
when pay day rolls around, says the
Sparks Tribune. The change does not
affect -he roundhouse men, who are
putting in three separate shifts of
eight hours.
The employees of the Sparks shops
are working on basic eight-hour
day under the national agreement
and will receive time and one-half
for the extra hour worked on the
daily shift.
The reason for the longer day is
to get the motive power in condition
to handle the great rush of business
which will pass over this line dlfring
the next few months.
1t is stated with every indication
of certainty that the volumne of busi-
ness that will be handel over the
Southern Pacific this year will by far
exceed any like period in the history
of the road.

contemporary down the alley tells its
readers what it thinks is wrong with
The Silver State. Once more no
names are mentioned. This time the
cause of complaint is that "a Winnie
mucca paper" said the "fu" situation
is only joke" and charges a
twisted sense of humor or an entire
lack of human feeling"
in the first place, it has never been
said in The Silver State that the flu
situation is only a joke" For the
benefit of the publishers of the Hum
boldt Star we will reprint the refer
ence verbatim as it appeared in The
Silver State, issue of January 81, in
hope that upon second reading they
may grasp the idea:
One Winnemucca physician,
whose name is left out because
of advertising" reasons, said
this morning he had treated
forty so-called influenza cases
and every one of the persons i'll
are now convalescent. He also
said: ITO compare the illness
now being called influenza in
Winnemueea with the influenza
of last year is joke
The statement credited to "one Win
nemucca physician" was made in the
Overland hotel, in the hearing of
many persons, all interested in what
he had to say. For the reason men
toned we still refuse to state the
physicians name, but will say he is
prominent here and has a large prac-
proven that The Silver State merely
followed it policy of no personal
opinions in news columns and gave to
its readers that which they are most
interested in-truthful news just as
we get it,
This is the third time within the
thirteen months the present owners
have been publishing The Silver State
that the publishers of the Star have
seen fit to attempt to hold us up TO
public scorn. On the two other oe-
casions they We're promptly answered
and their twisting of facts shown in
these columns, after which they did
not carry the matters any further
Why they persist we are at loss to
understand. OF course, we do know
that the lively competition we have
furnished has not set well with their
oon-to-four- clock habits, but We
must continue that competition if we
are to grow as we have in the past
short year. We were told by them
when we started that there'd be no
newspaper fight in Winnemucca un-
less we started it. We don't want a
newspaper fight because both sides
are bound to say things they'll be
sorry for afterward. Fights are ex-
pensive and are conducive to lack of
respect on the part of the reading

must relinquish the idea that they are
some sort of tin gods. So far as
known they've never been up against
the real thing before, except on one
occasion which they haven't forgotten,
and perhaps that's the reason for the
grouches. They must also give up the
opinion they can say whatever they
please in their columns without fear
of a comeback. They've started the
fight three times now and we've fin
ished it each time.
That word "extemporaneous" used
in the opening sentence is very APP
plicable. it seems as the matter is
thought over. 1t means that their flu
story was written and published with
out due consideration, as is frequently
the case in newspaper Offices because
of pressure of time If they had
stopped to think they would have seen
