ERROR IN FIGURING
SILVER STATE AGE

An error was made in the last issue
of The Silver State when it was said
this newspaper was thought to be
seventy-one years old and if not the
oldest Nevada newspaper, then the
second oldest. Further investigation
of the files shows that the statement
contained in an issue twenty-five
years ago that THE Silver State en-
ters upon its forty-sixth volume with
this ISSUE" was misleading. 1t seems
that in the early days six-months vol
umes were kept and the younger of
the owners of this newspaper jumped
at the conclusion that volume meant
year. In fact until old timers called
attention to the error yesterday he
had never heard of anything but one
year volumes before.
The oldest copy of The Silver State
found in files now on the premises is
of Saturday, January 2, 1S75-forty-
five years ago. This issue is in Vol.
5, No. 9S, and was then owned and
published as daily by Myers G. Hill.

ried a line Established 1869" ST.
years elapsed from 1869 to 1875. and
in January, 1875. our oldest record
The Silver State was in the fifth vol
ume. 1t was a most natural inference.
therefore, that volumes constituted
one year. and when a paper twenty
fiTe years ago said The Silver State
was in its forty-sixth volume ii was
natural to add twenty-five years to
forty-six and get supposed age C
seventy-one years. AS ii is we dom
know how old the paper is because
it is understood it was published IN
Unionville before being removed to
Winnemucca.

error. thus adding to their propaganda

PERSHING COUNTY FARMERS
BELIEVE WATER Is WASTED

The scarcity of water in Pershing
county has begun to cause some
anxiety, according to the Lovelock
ReviewMiner. There is no doubt
that the ranches in the valley are not
getting the amount they are entitled
to, and there is a strong belief that
the reason of this is that water is
being wasted by users further up the
Humboldt river, whether intentionally
or carelessly, remains to be seen. The
matter has been taken up by the Per-
shing County Club. and a committee
composed of representative men, ac-
companied by Col. j. G. Scrugham,
state engineer, will shortly make a
trip to investigate. In the meantime
unofficial Investigations have gathered
considerable data on the manner the
water is being used by some persons
and legal proceedings against those
guilty of unnecessary or wasteful use
may follow.

BOOST COMING IN
SOFT COAL PRICE

WASHINGTON, d. c. April 8.-All
indications point to the boosting OF
prices for soft coal to the public fol-
lowing closely on the signing up of
the new agreement between btu
minous miners and operators. The
new agreement involves a wage in
crease of twenty-seven per cent and is
in accordance with the award of Presi-
dent Wilson's coal commission.
Mine owners are saying that prices
will be increased sixty-five cents to
$3.50 per ton at the mines.
What this will mean in way of in
creased prices as the coal is pur-
chased at retail by the ordinary con-
sumner is not clear. Doubtless it will
burden him a good deal more than
that
The outcome is evidently to be
just what DR.. Garfield feared and
what he protested against In spite
of what he said, however, there is
every indication that the general pub
lie is to be burdened still further
The situation is peculiarly inter
esting in view of the professed anx-
iety of the administration to lower
the high cost of living.
