II. A. N. Todd
Passes Awau

II. A. N. Todd, well known business
man of Gardnerville, passed away in
San Francisco Wednesday night, ac-
cording to a telegram received here
yesterday morning. Mr.. Todd went to
the coast some time ago for the bene-
fit of his health and for a time show
ed improvement. His illness, caused
by chronic stomach trouble, was toe
serious for man of his years to COM
bat. and death relieved him of his
earthly sufferings.
The news of Mr.. Todd's death has
brought sadness to his host of friends
and business associates in this COM
munity. He was held in the highest
esteem by all who knew him and his
demise is mourned by all.
Mr.. Todd was native of St
Ignace, Michigan. where he resided un-
til 1898 when the spirit of the west
called and was answered by him
At that time Gardnerville was just
merging from the crossroads stage
He saw future here and at once en-.
gagged in the drug business, he being
a graduate pharmacist. His business
grew and as the town advanced, Mr.
Todd prospered.
Mr.. Todd represented Douglas coun-
ty in the lower house of the Nevada
legislature and made highly capable
Representative. He was a lifelong
Democrat and was admired by Demo-
Gratis and Republicans alike for his
keen insight to political questions.
He is survived by a widow and one
daughter. Mrs. VIM. Maui, who were
at his side when death came.
At the time of going to press no an
nouncement of funeral arrangements
had been made.

and improvements by constructing
more pole lines and stringing more
wires, with the result that 1870 tele-
phones have been added to the sys-
tenn making a total Of 800 subscribers
being served at present.
The service rendered by the Farm
ers' Company is excellent and the
range of service included In its month
ly charge for telephone rental, Is
much broader than that usually per-
mitted by other plants of equal size,
and although nearly every other tele-
phoe company In the state applied
and received increased rates for SER
vice during the war period and are
receiving the same increase today, the
Farmers Company rates are the same
now as when the company began op-
erations, which speaks well forconser-
vative management, and a fact that
the people of this community should
appreciate.
The company is owned by about
one hunderd home people, each an
enthusiastic and proud stOckholder.
The Board of Directors consists of
such capable men as e. Christensen,
President; F. Schacht, First Vice.
President: II. Bassman, second Vice
President; w. ID. Park Treasurer and
Z. J. Phillips, Secretary manager.
When Mr.. Phillips was asked the
other day If he did not feel proud to be
at the head of an institution that had
proved up such splendid results, and
our reporter attempted to compliment
him. Phillips in his unassuming
manner said Surely, do feel very
elated that the result which ! proph-
esied would be accomplished. is now
realized. It has taken a number of
years of hard consistent work and ap-
plication. 1t has taken a number of
years not to be lost sight of, that
was backed up by an energetic and
untiring Board of Directors and or
icers. The employees also deserve
much credit. for they have stood
shoulder to shoulder with me in my
endeavor and their loyalty together
with that of the officers and Directors
contributes largely to the gratifying
result. We each had our oar In the
boat and pulled a good even stroke"

HENDERSON UNDECIDED
AS TO RUNNING AGAIN

The Elko Independent says thai
Senator Henderson has received many
letters from influential men all over
Nevada and the west expressing regret
because of his defeat.
Senator Henderson himself would
make no statement as to whether he
would ever run again or not for the
United States Senate. He has large
personal interests which he will
spend his time in looking after when
his successor has qualified at Wash
ington and will spend greater por-
tion of his time at his home in this
city.

A. W. II. HELBERG APPOINTED
DODGE CAR DEALER HERE

An announceme Is made by Dodge
Brothers, Detroit. of the appointment
of A. w. H. Helberg as their represen-
tative for this territory. Mr.. Helberg
is SO well and favorably known as an
expert automobile mechanic that 1t is
useless to dwell on his reputation.
The remarkable popularity of the
Dodge Brothers Motor Vehicles has
caused automobile men all over the
country to clamor for sales privileges
but Dodge Brothers policy Of quality
In selling methods, as we'll as quality
In the car. requires painstaking in
yestigation in every instance before
selection is made. In Mr.. Helberg.
Dodge Brothers have a dealer on
whom they believe they may rely or
both progressiveness and fair business
methods.
The prompt manner in which Dodge
Brothers assumed one Of the fore
most positions in the automobile In
dustry is regarded as a striking test
imonial to the high regard In which
their name was held by the public
even before they marketed motor car
bearing their name. Prior to that time
Dodge Brothers had built the vital
parts for more than a half million
other cars, establishing reputation
for thoroughness and mechanical skill.
This reputation has been more than
upheld. 1t is said of Dodge Brothers
in explanation of their unusual Sec
cess, that they spare no money or
effort In building car to suit their
particular ideas of thoroughness in
mana acture What tehir ideas on
subject mean to the purchaser of their
product may be imagined from the
fact that they have staff of more
than 700 inspectors who do nothing
but check up on workmanship in the
various processes of manufacture. In
addition there are severallarge depart
ments devoted entirely to similar
work, such as the physical and chem
ical laboratories where raw and fin
ished materials are subjected to tests
so thorough as to leave no doubt of
the quality.
1t is significant that the first Dodge
Motor car ever built was made up ex-
actly as a car is made in the regular
line of production. Ordinarily the
experimental job as the first car Is
known,is built of castings because of
the great time and expense involved
in preparing dies and forgings,
Dodge Brothers, however, decided that
their experimental car should be like
the car they expected to build. In ev-
cry detail so that neither they nor the
public might be fooled. So they spent
almost year in making these dies
and preparing otherwise for com
pletely manufactured car. As a re
suit, when the car was built they
knew what they had and what they
and the public might expect Of theiI
product.
Public approval Of their principles
of thoroughness is seen In the rapid
expansion of the Dodge Brothers
Works made necessary BY public de-
mand. In December 1914. 1t was 9
plant of less than 20 acres. Toda.
Dodge Brothers Works covers owe
100 acres of floor space. and there Il
enough construction work under way

THE WRONG MAN

Tuesday while Sheriff Nielsen was

OF men, when one asked him how he
felt.
"Fidf." said the sheriff.
A stranger standing with the crowd,
Clipped in and said "Im with you, old

I'm glad of that" replied the
sheriff, but devil of it is, am the
one seeking the third term" and the
stranger just naturally faded into the
