commencement of the manufacture
ing campaign tomorrow morning.
The occasion has been seized upon
to afford the public an opportunity

size the fact that the refreshments
that will be served at the celebra

done that would tend to mark the
opening of the 1921 sugar manufac-
turing campaign as a time for gen
eral rejoicing by Newlands project
residents.

GETTING EVEN
WITH LEGISLATOR

Lately quite a number of Gold
field men have been borrowing -four
bits from Dave Ward. Men who
obviously were not in need OF the
price OF meal have been doing
this. In fact some prominent min
ing men have been touching
Ward, who Is one of the assembly
men from Esmeralda county, and
always the touch" has been for
-four bits" They simply walk in
to his store and ask him for the
piece of silver and he, being a good
fellow, gives them the coin like a
gentleman, asking no questions.
However. Il is reported that the
thing has been done so many times
that he is becoming curious. The
reason is this: AT the last meeting
of the legislature there was passed
a bill raising the price of hunting
licenses from 81 TO $3.50. Ward is
member of the legislature. All of
the men who have visited him and
have mysteriously asked for -four
bits' are hunters. They are merely
making Ward pay the Difference be-
tween the former and the present
price OF a hunting license. holding
him responsible for the advance

Stolen Essex Car
Found in Idaho
Was Found Hidden in Bushes
Where Snyder and Smith
Abandoned Ii

The Essex car owned by Ed Dyer,
local manager of the Verdi Lumber
company, and stolen here last June
by Earl Snyder and Tex" Smith,
has, through the efforts of Sheriff
George W. Brady, been recovered in
Idaho, where it was driven from
Winnemucca.
Sheriff Brady received informa-
ton in roundabout way as to
where the car was hidden and with
the aid of Sheriff Kinney OF Cald
we'll, the machine was found at the
place designated by maps sent from
here TO the Idaho sheriff, who now
has the auto in his possession. The
car was hidden in the willows and
weeds. back Of an old house that
stands about 800 yards from the
Union ditch and about three miles
from the town of Star, between
Boise and Caldwell, Idaho. The car
Is only damaged through exposure
to the weather. Sheriff Kinney
states that the engine is in good
shape but the tires are all sun-cook-
ed and the battery is spoiled IL is
expected that Mr.. Dyer will leave
for Caldwell In few days to pro-
cure the car.
Snyder and Smith were arrested
at Nampa, Idaho, shortly after max
ing a rapid ride from here In the
Dyer car.
Prior to coming to Winnemucca
they were being hunted for robbery
and the shooting of Sheriff Smith of
Fallon, and for which crimes they
we're arrested in Idaho, brought
back here, and are now serving sen
tences of from one to fifteen years
in the state prison.
1t was after Sheriff Brady and a
posse had taken up the trail from
here in pursuit OF the robbers for
stealing the car that it was diseov-
cred that the men were the ones
wanted in Fallon. Later Sheriff
Brady and a deputy sheriff from
Fallon went to Caldwell and with
officers there returned with the
prisoners. From here they were
taken 10 Falion.

Water Users Will
Petition Gov mt
ponement of Water Charge
Payments

Newlands project water users, the
district irrigation board, the farm
bureau and the chamber OF com
merce in this city have joined In {
petition to the reclamation service
officials in congress for the post
ponement OF all water charges ac
eruing in this project for period Of
two years without the imposition Of
penalty.
This innovation Is considered nee,
essary because of the crisis confront.
ing the farmer throughout the entire
country, this crisis being particular.
ly critical wherever irrigation eharg.
es must be met. The humid district
farmer is immune from this form oil
overhead and also enjoys in many
instances a wider range of produc-
ton, hence is better able to meet
conditions that go with a readjust
ment period than his contemporary
in arid districts where unusual ex
pense attends BODYBUILDING.
The petitions will go forward
within a short time and have the
endorsement of Project Manager
John +. Richardson. the reelama-
ton service representative in this
project.
The reclamation service viewpoint
OF the matter is that congress should
invest the secretary of the interior
with authority to postpone all forms
of water payments upon petition
backed by logical reasons and Pro-
ject Manager John +. Richardson is
arguing against a blanket dispense
ton, asserting that no contingency
can arise wherein the entire farming
population of a government project
will need relief. 1t is his viewpoint
that there are those within this pro-
ject who are we'll able to continue to
return the moneys due the federal
government and that these should
not be favored along with still 9TH
ers who are experiencing genuine
hardships in their BODYBUILDING
work.
w. A. Moody, +. M. Schmaling
and Dan Evans constitute the water
users committee in charge of the
petitions the text of which is as fol-
lows:
ITO the Honorable Secretary of the
Interior, Washington, d. c.
Whereas the water users of the
Newlands Project, one OF the pro-
jects established by the United
States under an Act of Congress
passed June Il. 1902, known by all
people as the Reclamation Act, re-
spectfully represent, that there are
more than 500 farmer water users
upon the project who have become
obligated to the United States thru
the Reclamation Service. which COM
prises practically the entire citizen
ship of Churchill county, Nevada.
I'VE further represent that
through the economic conditions
over which we had no control, the
products of our farms have been so
reduced in price that it will be very
difficult to pay our state taxes and
meet our dues to the Reclamation
Service; therefore
I'VE, the undersigned water us
ers, respectfully request that you
defer or postpone all water charges,
both maintenance and operation, as
we'll as construction charges, for the
period of two years. without the i'm
position of any penalty, and if you
should feel that you have not the
legal power so to do, that you rec
ommend the same to our Congress
at once"

Says.
Been Kept In Good Health Two
Years by Tanlac.

'Tanlac built me up twenty pounds

tainly think that's something to be
thankful for said Mrs. c. B.
Frutchey, 1106 S. Central avenue, Bur-

Il have been taking Tan1ac at in

and have gotten highly satisfactory
results from it. 1 cannot say 1 had
anything in particular the matter with
me when I started taking it, except
that 1 was rundown, had no appetite,
suffered from gas and bloating after
meals, and my energy seemed entirely
gone.
II began to improve and pick up
in weight right away after 1 started
on Tanlac, and it's simply remarkable
the way it restored my appetite. In
a little while it had built me up in
weight and strength to where 1 felt
just fine. Since then I've taken it oc-
casionally when I felt myself becom-
ing rundown. and it always gives me
wonderful appetite and gets me to
feeling fine. I certainly am pleased
with Tanlac. ADV.

MORE ROAD FUNDS
Shawnee County May Receive
Slice of $44,175.
Kansas Counties Ask Aid Total
ing s4s6,42O.

When the state highway commits
sion makes final reapportionment of
federal aid for hard surface road
building, Shawnee county may re-
ceive an additional SALTS for the
upper Silver Lake road. A total of
S486,4 APO has been asked by counties
which are now ready to proceed with
road building projects.
VIII Not Argue with Boards.
Members of the state commission
have served notice that they will not
argue with county boards regarding
the building of county roads. If funds
have been apportioned and commits
sionerS have refused to act, the state
will merely withdraw the appropria-
ton and give the money to another
county.
This plan has already fallen heavily
on the town of Baldwin, home of w.
c. Markham, secretary of the state
highway commission. Markham went
to washington to conduct the cam
paign for more federal aid. The leg
islature came to town and cut off his
Job. Now his home county commits
sioners have refused to build the road
thru his own home town and his own
board has withdrawn aid in the
amount of $164,190.
Money To Brown County.
A large slice of the money will go
to Brown county which protested
most noisily against road building dur
ing the legislature. The road to re-
ceiye aid is near the farm of Repre-
sentative w. P. IambertSon who led
the protest.
