LIVESTOCK LAW PRINTED

The State Board of Stock Commits
sioners is mailing out a 105-page
summary of Laws of Nevada Di-
rectly Applicable to the Livestock
Industry"
This summary is going to allrancb-
ers and livestock growers In the Stare.
For some time 1t has appeared that
such book was a necessity since the
board has been making stringent ef-
forts to secure a better enforcement
Of laws designed for the protection II
the industry.
Statements made by various live
stock raisers at different meetings OF
the Nevada Livestock Association
have made ii plain that very few pri-
vate individuals, or even peace OFF,
GERS. have any very clear idea of the
laws actually available for the pro-
lection OF the livestock industry

Puett's peeve against the County
Commissioners unquestionably arises
from the steady refusal of the board
to pay him rental for a certain piece
of road which he claims crosses soma
of his property.
Since his statement made here yes
terday many people have expressed a
suspicion concerning his good faith
when he represented before election
day that he would positively not be
party to any division movement.
The case of Senator Friedman Of
Pershing Coutny, who did not hesi-
tate to turn against his promise to
the people of Humboldt County at
the time Pershing County was Gre
ated. is held up as an example of
their belief by people here who are
considerably put out over Puett's
present attitude,
At any rate, he stoutly maintains
that the county can be divided II
enough money can be raised to put
it over, Just how the sponsors of
the move propose to use the money
is Lot disclosed. At any rate the
people of the county may rest conf
IDENTIFY behind the promise of the
present Assemhlymen frem Elko
County to have nothing whatever to
do with county division movement.
The story illustrates, however. just
how strongly the movement is being
backed in earlin at any rate. and it
will serve also as warning of the
contest that may develop in the near
future,

DEATH OF A. c. CUMMINS

Albert C. Cummins, who came into
Eureka a short time ago for medical
attention. passed away here Tuesday,
November ., of Bright's disease. Two
years ago he was attacked with in
fiuenza in Newark Valley and was
without a physicians care, the re-
suit being that his health has since
been impaired and his early death
followed.
Many flu victims have had similar
after results to their health, regard
less OF age. who were severely at
tackled with the treacherous disease.
The deceased was a brother-in-law
of Narcis Ramerias of Ruby Valley.
Elko County. where he had lived and
worked, and has also been employed
on a number of other ranches in this
section. He had been a frequent Wis
itor to Eureka and had many friends
here. He was a native of Oregon

was held Thursday and the interment
was in the city cemetery.

The IRE alarm sounded from the
Mob Hill Hose house near the noon
hour Thursday was occasioned by .
fire that started in the cellar Of Mrs.
Jennie Leighton's residence on Mob
Hill. Mrs. Leighton had been using
candle while doing some work In
the cellar and In some manner the
sacking and rags covering q water
pipe became ignited. She attempted
to put out the fire without assistance,
but was unable to do 90 and nearby
neighbors sounded the alarm.
A Pile of sacks also caught fire and
the heavy volume of smoke caused
both the Mob Hill and Rescue Hose
Companies to turn out. 1t was q blind
fire, as the dense smoke would not
permit of learning its exact nature
and two streams OF water wereturued
into the cellar. The IRE was soon
extinguished and 1t was then learned
that no portion of the building had
been burned, and the damage was
confined to the loss caused by. the
flooding of the cellar and general
mix-up of its contents. The proper
ty was insured and the loss occas-
ioned will be adjusted.

DEATH OF MISS ANNIE LUCEY
Estimable Woman Beloved BY Many
Friends Succumbs to Nervous
Breakdown

A telegram received in Eureka
Friday afternoon announced the death
of Miss Annie Lucey, formerly of Eu-
reka. at her home at Reno early that
morning. Her death was the result
of a nervous breakdown that came
upon her some time ago due to her
close application to combining Office
work as an employee of the Reno
Journal, a position she has held since
her residence in Reno.
The surviving sisters, Julia and
Lizzie. and brother James. will have
the sympathy of many warm Eureka
friends, for upon their removal to
Reno they left close friends behind
them. Their deceased sister Annie's
memory will live in the hearts and
minds Of many of the older Eurekans,
for she was a particularly amiable
person, and useful in church work
and social life. She was a sweet,
musical singer. and upon occasions of
mirth and sorrow, her singing will
be remembered as giving both pleas
ure and consolation. The fourteen
years that have elapsed since her re-
moval from Eureka seems only q
span of years, for she lives in the
minds of friends as though it were
yesterday.

very satisfactory disclosures Of ore
have resulted. All of these work

VISITING MINING man
SUDDENLY SUCCUMBS
C. w. Turner, Prominently In
terested in Mines Here and
Elsewhere, Leaves Nothing
Available to Disclose His
Business Affairs.

George william Siegfred Turner
died in Eureka on Sunday, November
7. following brief illness from ulcer
of the stomach. DIR. Bremen when
called to attend him diagnosed his
ailment as gastric ulcer, OF a serious
nature, and advised an operation,
which Mr.. Turner would not submit
to. A post mortem operation per-
formed by the Doctor shortly after
his death disclosed that his passing
resulted from the above mentioned
cause.
Mr.. Turner returned to Eureka on
Saturday, October 80, after an abb
sence Of a number of months, and the
following day went up to his cabin on
Ruby Hill. where he owns some FIVE
or more mining claims adjoining the
jackson mine. It is learned that the
assessment work on these five claims
had all been completed, but the work
has not been done on two of his 9TH
er locations, and IL is believed he
came here to perform this work.
When taken up to Ruby Hill by A.
Berolo's delivery team he had among
his effects two suit cases. one a sub
stantial leather case that Is supposed
TO have contained letters and valu-
able papers. and this has been found
missing. C. w. Ruden, appointed
administrator OF Mr.. Turner's estate,
has made diligent search for the miss
ing suit case. but SO far without re-
suits. Mr.. Turner In talking with
people here at different times dis
closed the information that he also |
had other mining interests in Mon |
tana and in California placer mines. |
He is supposed to have been interest
ed with men OF large means in his |
mining ventures. but no one here
knows anything intimately about his
business affairs.
When the Richmond-Eureka Min
ing company took over the RUDY Hill
properties and resumed operations in
1908 Mr.. Turner was employed by
the company as a blacksmith. and
learning that the five claims near the
Jackson were open to relocation filed
on them and has since worked and
held them. II is understood he re-
Gently received substantial offer
for these claims, which he refused
with the statement that he would not
take $4,000 for them.
His naturalization papers show
that he was a native OF Germany and
aged 54 years. His funeral was held
Tuesday afternoon and the interment
was in the city cemetery.

COUNTY DIVISION
COMES UP AGAIN
Carlin Townsiters Want q New
County and Are Long f.
of Lots

The biennial question of county d.
vision again crops out with the de-
feat Of John w. Puett of Carlin. It
seems from the election reports that
John ran a poor second in the race
for the Legislature from Elko Coun-
ty, however, he still has some town
lots down at Carlin he wants to cap
italize in the formation of a new
county and he is calling on some poor
losers to help him out.
Eureka County has been getting
along for SO years. She doesn't owe
cent to anybody. Some way or an
other Eureka County feels that her
disposition should not be source of
badinage among disappointed soap
box politicians that have failed to Sc
cure even a majority of the votes of
their own sex.
Not alone in Eureka County Is the
sentiment against county division. 1t
is brought up forcibly in the follow
ing article in the Elko Independent
of November 8
