THOROUGH TEST OF
CAPACITY OF WELL

The pump on the Henderson well
east Of Elko is going steadily night
and day and is throwing a maximum
stream of water This is being done
in order to test out the capacity Of
the well and to prove whether the
well taps a small reservoir or an un-
foreground flow of water . The pump
is throwing over a half million gallons
of water every t~weny-four hours, and
the test will be continued for six
weeks. II the flow keeps up, the
pump at the end of the test period
will have raised to the surface a to-
tai of tw~enty-six million gallons. This
is more than the city now consumes
and 1t is believed that this well alone
will supply the needs Of Elko.-Elko

EPIDEMIC KILLS
MILLIONS OF PESTS

'Tf mere man was wise he would
sit down and fold his hands and wait
for things to come his way even tho
p~estilence stalked through the land"
said an observant resident the other
day to an Elko Free Press writer.
Take the j~ackrabbit. for Instance.
For years and years we have been
lighting them and considered them q
pest. The whole Metropolis section
was eaten out three years ago and
thousands of dollars were spent build
ing ra~bbit-proof fences. Government
experts were called in and poison
campaigns were carried out. Rab-
bit drives we're instituted and thous-
ands of the Dummies were killed. But
in spite Of man they prospered, in
creased until the hills were literally
teaming with the pests.
But now it is different. You can
drive for miles and miles, through
the sagebrush hills, and where once
the rabbits were so plentiful as to
resemble droves of sheep, a sight of
a single one is a rarity. Mother Ma
lure has stepped in and In one year
accomplished what man failed to do
in years. The rabbits have all died
from a peculiar epidemic, and the
country is free. Old timers say that
every seven years the epidemic visits
the country and sweeps the rabbits
away"

EXIT H HAPsBURc

The second attempt Of the depossd
Emperor Charles to re-establish him
self on the throne Of Hungary has
ended in failure. There IL not likely
to be q third attempt. says the Salt
Lake Tribune. for Charles Is now .
prisoner and awaits the pleasure OF
the allied powers as to his disposition.
With the captive one-time ruler Is his
wife, the former Empress Zita. the
determined Bourbon whose domina-
ton of Charles doubtless accounts for
his dilemma. The former empress
was one Of the most obstinate of the
royalist group which figured In world
war events. She has been credited
with the plottings which led Charles
to attempt his first coup last Spring.
and she is understood nev to have
accepted that failure as final.
The success Of Regent Horthy's
soldiers presents another problem for
the powers. The allied governments
have never ceased to publicly lament
the fact that william Hohenzollern
defeated their plans by anchoring
himself to Dutch soil. Privately,
there is not one of those powers that
is not pleased to have him In Holland.
So long as he remains there they will
NOT be pestered by the problem OF his
disposal. But Charles cannot be al
lowed to remain In Hungary; he has
twice violated his pledge to the Swiss
and his return to Switzerland is out
of the question. There is no reason
for believing that Alfonso of Spain,
related to the Hapsburgs, wants
Charles within his kingdom. Austria
will have none Of him.
There have been limitations that

COAL RATES CUT
BUT NOT FOR NEVADA

The morning papers publish the
announcement that a cut Of $1.25 per
ton has been made on the freight
rates on coal from Utah to the Cali
fornia coast cities, says the Elko Free
Press. Inquiry at the local offices
bring out the interesting Information
that this cut does not extend to the
inland points but to the cities reached
by steamers. The railroad rates on
practically every commodity are now
SO high that everything is being
shipped by water and this cut is made
to Offset the coal shipments from
abroad to California. The mines are
practically idle in Utah, working but
two days a week. and the cut is made
in the hopes of stimulating more coal
shipments over the railroads. Ne
vada still pays Is per cent higher
rates than any other State in the I'm
ion. and will continue to do so until
the railroads r compelled to lower
their rates. either by reason of COM
petition Or public sentiment.

COWBOYS
ARE kept BROKE

A rather interesting comparison as
to the relative cost of personal adorn-
ment was brought to light at a recent
rodeo In a Nevada town during a con
versation between a man from New
York passing through the State and
a native. says the Elko Free Press.
During the course OF the converse
ton the fastener remarked to the
w~esterner that one of the advantages
the western man had was that the
standard of dress required In the
West was such that 1t did not strain
a mans finances to keep up with the
we'll dressed.
II dunno about that" said the
westerner as he rolled a brownie and
watched the riders preparing for the
preliminary parade around the rodeo
grounds. Some of these boys you
see here ride the sun up and. down
for sixty per and board. and 1t takes
about all they make to keep up that
standard of dress you talk about.
Take that Indian over there on that
pinto cayuse. for instance. He is
trying hard to keep up with the
bunch. and let's Q what he will as
say in the way Of dressing up. That
sombrero he is wearing set him back
about fifty bucks and that handker-
chief around his neck let him In for a
". That there silk shirt made him
ante up about twenty bones, and he
had to fash a fifty to strap that silver
studded leather riding belt around
his middle. Them chaps over those
three-dollar Lewis held up for about
a hundred and fifty and It lowered his
stack about thirty chips to put his
feet in them boots where you will
notice a pair of $50 hand-carved sill
ver-mounted spurs fitted. He coughed
up about three hundred for that
double-cinch saddle, and that knot
head of a mustang is rolling the
cricket in o hundred-dollar ham,
mered silver bride.
That hombre is doing his best to
keep up with the real dressy boys you
see over there pulling latigos on a
thousand-dollar h~and-carved saddle"
The man from New York ficked
the alkali dust from the lapels of his
broad cloth suit and settled back to
watch the parade.

TO GET BEER
BUT NEVAOANs BARRED

Washington, Oct 25.-Secretary
Mellon of the Treasury Department
yesterday afternoon issued reguia-
tons permitting manufacture and use
of beer and small quantities Of wine.
He said the department could no
longer withhold regulations as the
legal right in the matter was plain.
His action is expected to hasten the
passage Of the antf-beer bill by Con-
gress.
Two and One Half Gallon Limit
The rules cover the use Of beer,
wines and spirituous liquors as med
icines. The quantity of beer a ply
stefan may prescribe at one time for
the use of the same person is limited
to two and one-half gallons. but no
arbitrary limit is placed upon the
number of such prescriptions a ply
stefan may write or the same person
may obtain within a given period.
Two quarts of wine is the limit put
on a single prescription for that bev-
erage. but otherwise the regulations
are the same as for beer. Spirituous
liquors are limited to a pint to the
same person at one time.
Prescriptions for these medicines
may be filed only by a licensed phar-
macist who is also a retail druggist,
or a licensed pharmacist in the en-
ploy of a retail druggist.
Three Weeks to Start
Louisville. KY, Oct. 25.-Assum-
ing that breweries are permitted to

sued by H. M. Daugherty, United
States Attorney General, it will not

ing to John T. Drane. vice-president
of a Louisville beverage company.
Only malt and hops are used in
making near beer, he said, whereas a
cereal is required for real beer"

Even then, he said, II will be three

No Eject In This State
Carson. Nevada. Oct. 2s.-Nevad-
ans with q thirst for beer and wine
will receive no comfort from the rul-
ing Of Secretary Mellon and Attorney
General Daugherty, according to
Leonard b. Fowler. Attorney General
Of Nevada, who said to-day that un-
der the State prohibition law beer
and wine can not be sold in this State.
as they are not listed in the pharma-
copoeia of the National Association Of
Druggists since a few years ago and
the Nevada prohibition law provides
that only beverages listed as medi-
cines a be sold as such in this State.
1t makes no difference what ruling
the Federal officials make regarding
the prohibition regulations, the State
law is still in effect, and as long as
1t doesn't conflict with the Federal
statute 1t is in force. according to
Fowler, and Nevada will have to wor-
~ along without beer and wine for
the sick.

OBSERVANCE OF
ARM|ST|CE DAY

At the eleventh hour Of the mist
hung morning Of the eleventh day Of
the eleventh month Of 1918. an en-
tire world threw on the spell OF "a
and stood upright in a new age. 1t
was as IL another Easter had come.
/ Three years have passed since run
ners dashed across the ~battlefelds of
France and carried to farthest out
posts the order to cas- firing. And
now, on the eve of November 18th of
1921, the nations are going back to
the spirit of November 18th, 1918.
To America, as to the whole world.
Armistice Day will hereafter be es-
sentially a day of rejoicing, but this
year a note of solemnity dominates
the harmony of our joy in peace. Our
duty to u dead. that they may re-
ceive part Of their need of honor, will
be discharged to the best of our abil-
ity in the burial of an unknown
American soldier-representative of
all unidentified American dead Of the
World War-whose body is being
brought from a battlefield OF France
to rest at last in the central amphi-
theatre Of the Arlington National
Cemetery.
At the instant the body is being
lowered, the nation. by proclamation
Of President Harding, will stand In
silent prayer for two minutes-from
IL o'clock noon until 1902.
The burial Of the unknown soldier
will be part of an elaborate ceremony
reflected all owe the country. Repre-
sentatives of every department Of the
American Legion, Congressional Med
al Of Honor men, high dignitaries Of
Congress and of the cabinet, will
march bearheaded by the casket of
the one body to which honor will be
done in the name Of many. With
them will go high officers of other ma
lions, representatives Of the great
Congress of nations on the limitation
of ornaments, ambassadors and min
listers. The whole world will do hon
or to Americas dead.
For that reason, Legionaires every
where will find at least part of the
day already planned for them. In
New York. Chicago and San Fran
cisco, they will hear, through long,
distance telephone connected with
giant amplifers, President Harding's
address from Arlington. The Legion
already is preparing toassemble giant
crowds for a moment of reverence
and the period of eulogy.
The Legion programs for the OBJ
servance of Armistice Day will be
guided everywhere by the solemnity
of the occasion at Washington, but
everywhere, too, Legionaires will i'm
press upon America that the day is
to them fraught with the highest
memories of the living. Facilitated
by laws in more than a score Of
States making November 18th a legal
holiday. Legion posts will not permit
interest to lag in their communities.

ferred separately. In the afternoon
a joint session was held which was

Mr.. Hoopers's appearance before

have marked the turning point which
led to the final decision.

the boards announcement thatnofur-
Their wage cuts for any class of en-
ployes would be considered until

the announcement Of the rail execu-
tives made at Wednesdays hearing
that no changes in either wages or
working conditions would be sought
except through the Labor Board as
provided by law.

Hooper's remarks as indicating that
nearly a year must elapse before fur
ther wage cut could be made effective,
wen IL the roads should apply for
them at once and the board should
eventually approve them.
