GREAT INTEREST IN
NEVADA ROAD RACE

The Silver State, Winnemucca, New
Gentlemen--We believe you would
be interested In having some infor-
nation regarding our coming road
race.
The Nevada Highway Association
Is promoting what will be known as
the First Annual Nevada Highway
Road Race. which race will follow
the route from Reno to Lovelock.
: Winnemucca, Battle Mountain, Elko,
Wells. south to Ely. Tonopah. Nina,
Hawthorne, wellington, Gardnerville.
Minden, Carson City and over the
paved highway to Reno.
This race will be open to the pub
lie, although only stock cars are to
be used.
A meeting was held with the auto
mobile dealers of Reno recently, and
considerable enthusiasm was shown
ON their part, and ten signed up to
enter the race, and we believe that
some one from every town in Nevada
should enter cars, and we believe
they will, as soon as more definite In
formation is given out.
This race will be held according to
the racing rules of the American Au.
tomobile Association.
There will be an entrance fee OF
$50 per car, which money will go
toward the purses to be offered
which at present writing will be as
follows-although this is the mini
mum-it is rather expected that more
money will be raised and consequent
ly larger purses offered. First prize
$1,000, second $3.50, third $500.
There will be certain restrictions,
such as: no special gears where
rear axel housing would have to be
changed; no special radiator, no spe-
cial pistons. no special motors. no
bodies or tenders can be removed, no
special oiling systems.
Wire wheels, disc wheels, in fact.
any kind of wheels may be used; any
amount of shock absorbers, any kind
OF tires, extra gas tanks and extra
oil will be allowed Glass fronts and

HUDSON PROVES

At the present time 10 blocks Of
ground are being developed on the
Hudson property, and in every in

ore of a high grade has been uncoy-

NOW

One Of the greatest industrial un-

tempted in Nevada has been launch
ed by the Walker River Land com
pany, whose representatives are now
in Tonopah for the purpose of en-
tightening our residents concerning
the possibilities and opportunities for
the establishment of homes in the
fertile valleys known as Mason and
Smith, located in Lyon county.
Water for the new project is be-
ing derived through the tunnel that
was recently driven to tap Topaz
lake, with a canal hay .ng been con-
structed from the outlet to the val
leys which has a length of 26 miles
As a result of this stupendous un-
dertaking 10000 acres of the most
fertile land in Nevada has been
brought under irrigation, with $4,000
additional acres that will eventually
be brought under cultivation.
Nevada as an agricultural state
must be reckoned with in the future,
due to the efforts of the manage
ment Of the Walker River Land COM
pany. Having secured water that
was going to waste through Topaz
lake, and by constructing a canal
which brings this enormous tract Of

FOUR BROTHERHOODS
AGREE To CALL OFF
PROMISED WALKOUT


CHICAGO, Oct. 2S.-The official
recall of the rail strike orders issued
by the switchmen, trainmen, con
ductors, engineers. fremen and teleg
.aphers was dispatched when lead
ers flashed code messages to the
general chairman today. The chair
men will submit the messages to
their locals, and the official order
recalling the strike will thus per
meate the country in a few hours.
The vote ending the strike came
late last night after an all-day ses-
sion of the union leaders. In the
afternoon joint session of the
unions was addressed by Ben W
Hooper,. of the railroad labor board,
who is said to have stressed the
boards announcement that no fur
tAer wage cuts for any class of
employees would be considered until
working conditions for that class Of
employees had been settled. The
final decision seemed pleasing to
the union men, rail executives and
the labor board alike The Union
leaders pointed out they had de-
termned they could not strike with
out opposing both the government
and labor board, while they assert
ed their real quarrel was with the
railroads
Applications for injunctions re-
sTainiug the brotherhood chiefs
from carrying out the strike, with
orders necessary TO the conduct of
the proceedings, were in the hands
of district attorneys throughout the
country ready to be presented in
federal courts, District Attorney
Cline stated today.
The men of the unions will accept
the decision of their officers in re
calling the strike order, President
Lee Of the trainmen said,
81 expect the unions to follow the
counsel Of their committees so there
will be no sporadic outbursts in any
quarters" said Lee. Last year
there were such sporadic outbursts
that as a result the charters of SO
locals were withdrawn and more than
$4,000 men suspended. The men
know the committee here would ac-
cept nothing that was not for the
best interest of the organizations.
Il am very happy that this has
been settled. But so far as l am
concerned, all credit for the settle
ment is due to Governor Hooper and
the manner in which he conferred
with US"
1t was learned the code word call
ing off the strike had not yet been
dispatched to the International &
Great Northern trainmen who went
out last Saturday. The calling off
of their strike was deferred pending
determination of their opportunity to
return to work.

PRODUCTION Of
Alum PROMISES
GREAT EARNING

Great progress is being made by
the Western Chemicals, Inc, in the
treatment of the alum-sulphur de-
postts at Silver Peak, and a splen-
did recovery is being effected. 1t is
stated that on an average of be-
tween 80 and 100 tons of the ma
tertal are being treated in the big
reduction plant each day with the
result that about 20 tons of alum is
being produced. No shipments Of
the finished product have yet been
made, but the first carload will be
billed out during the course of the
next few days At present there IS
awaiting shipment in the neighbor-
hood Of three carloads of the finish
ed product, which is almost chemi-
caIly pure, and handsome earning
should result from this time for
ward.
The production Of sulphur has not
yet been started, but it is only a
question Of a short time until such
VIII be undertaken. The big reduc-
ton plant is rendering efficient
service, and the saving is reported
as being all that could be expected.
Joe White, who. is interested in
the company, spent yesterday at the
seat of operations, and he returned

A. R. WHITLEY HERE
DEMONSTRATING PUMP

After 40 years Of effort A, R, viii
fey of Denver, famous in the mining
world by reason of having invented
the Whitley concentrating table, has
succeeded in perfecting a centrifugal
sand pump that works without pack
ing, and eliminating the rubbing
contact that has been the bone Of
contention of other pieces of machi1-
cry that have caused so much dis
tress to- mining men. In addition,
1t is said, the wearing parts can be
changed in a few minutes, whereas
it requires hours to make a change
in pumps of a similar nature. Mr
Wiley came to Tonopah at the in
vitation of a number of large operat-
ing companies, and as a result of his
visit the Wiley pump will be install
ed in one of the big mines for dem
onstTation purposes and in the event
it does the work claimed for 't, then
most of the mines of this district
will be equipped with similar ma
chinery.
The new pumps are manufactured
in sizes of two, three, four and six.
inch capacity, and carry a flow Of
water from 200 to 1900 gallons per
minute, and it is said a saving Of
go per cent in power is effected. Mr..

CASH boy HAS
splendid FIND
ON TWO LEVELS

One of the most important discoy-
cries that has been made in long
period in the Cash Boy workings has
just been announced by the man
agemeut. Upon the arrival of Z. II.
Mead, secretary of the company. who
makes his headquarters in Reno, he
was furnished with the Information
that two important mineral finds had
been made of late The first was
made in the 7O-foot winze sunk from
the 1915 level feet of ore being ex-
posed Of good commercial value, and
the outlook is most promising for a
record breaking production being
made
The second find was made in the
drift being extended from the big
winze sunk below the 1850 level,
where a 3-foot vein of very promis-
ing ore is in evidence In the stope-
'wnze on No. 3 vein from the 1545
level a 5.foot vein of $40 ore is
showing, and during the past week
55 tons of ore were shipped to one
OF the local custom mills.
The physical condition of the mine
is considered better than at any
time in the past history Of opera
tions, and as development is carried
forward there is a decided improve
ment taking place All other work
Is in relation to the proving up of
ground that is in litigation.
