GRAVEL ROAD TO BE BUILT
TO SOUTH COUNTY LINE

From the state highway engineer,
George w. Borden, The Silver State
is in receipt of information pertain
ing to highways in Humboldt coun-
ty, as follows:
Construction work is under way
from the east county line to a point
near Valmy and will be completed
this fall. From Valmy into Col
conda trip was made over proposed
new location by way of Iron Point,
which will shorten this distance ap-
proximately five miles. Survey is
now being made on this section
and portions of it will doubtless be
included in the 1928 program. Sur
veys have also been completed
from Golconda to Winnemucca and
also portions of this section will be
on the program for the next two
years. Citizens of Winnemucca are
endeavoring to finance some sort
of improvement through the town,
and it is probable that this may be
done during the coming year. Con-
tracts will also be let early in the
spring for the two sections north
from Winnemucca to Paradise Hill.
From Winnemucca to the south
county line bids are to be received
and opened on November 8, and it
is probable that contract will be
let calling for the completion of this
section early in the spring. This is
to be a 15-foot gravel road, and it
is anticipated that number of bids
will be received on this project and
that, if contract is awarded, the

w. w. Wells, we'll known former
resident of this city, now employed
as an engineer in the mill of the
Arizona Silver mine company at
Unionville, is visiting in this city
today.
Mr.. Wells says that the mill of
the company, recently put into
operation following a change in ore
treatment process, is now running
smoothly and will soon be treat

The mill is equipped with an $50

which Mr.. Wells operates, and a

ore of the Arizona mine, one of the
oldest in the one-time county seat
Of this county, but now in Persh-

FAMED 'sC0TTY'
Man Who Made Death Valley Fam
Gus As the Hiding Place of
Piles of Virgin Gold Is
Still Doing Business

DR.. A. B. Van valin is back "on
the job," having returned from .
trip to his ranch lands 76 miles
north of Goldfield. DIR. Van Valin
was accompanied on his trip to the
ranch by M. H. Hendricks, who has
land adjoining that of DIR. Van
Valin, and Mr.. Hendricks remained
there to supervise the drilling of
water wells on both ranches.
During his absence DIR. Van Valin
funeral of the man who was the
last person to desert the one-time
thriving mining camp, known as
Rhyolite, which sported, in its pros
porous days, many edifices of SUBJ
stantial worth, not the least Of
which was an imposing depot built
at a cost of $4,000, and which
still stands as remarkable monu-
ment marking deserted village Of
blasted hopes.
Among other acquaintances, of
days gone by, DR.. Van Valin met
up with sDeath Valley Scotty," at
Beatty, and enjoyed q brief but
very pleasant visit with that re-
markable character, who made .
leap into limelight, few years ago,
by chartering a train, at q cost Of

from whence he draws the money

else but "Scotty," as it was when
he first had the eyes of the world
focused upon him.
Those who have put forth stren-
uous efforts to trail death Valley

wealth are generally agreed that
he has found golden mineral de-

have been compelled to abandon

invariably led the cvetous and con-
currently baffled them with the
trap devised by Nature for their
undoing.
Those who have doubt that the
treasure-trove is in the mountains
around Death Valley say that

j. s. SENATOR IS
WITH US TONIGHT
Senator Oddie and . Former State
Engineer Will Speak To Tax
payers of This Place at the
American Theatre

Senator Tasker Oddie, the Junior
United States senator of this state
and William Kearney, a former
state engineer, will address a meet
ing of citizens and taxpayers at the
American theatre tonight, and every
man who has the good of his state
at heart is urged to attend and hear
a fair, clear and plain presentation
OF facts pertaining to matters that
are of grave concern. The ladies,
too, are requested to attend and, as
a matter of fact, Senator Oddie and
Mr.. Kearney join in personal ap-
peal to them and particularly desire
that they make as large part of
the audience as is possible.
1t matters not what party a per-
son may favor or be identified with,
it is true that Senator Oddie is that
persons representative in the United
States Senate, one of the most-if
not the most-dignified and august
legislative bodies on the face of the
earth and If one would do honor to
himself and the country of which he
is an integral part, he cannot con-
sistently absent himself from pub
lie meeting, in his own home town,
at which his United States senator
is guest of honor and a speaker
on matters that he deems of no lit
tie Importance, from a good govern
ment standpoint.
1t will be well, too, for the tax
payer, who is somewhat dissatisfied
with system of state government
that is giving him very little re-
turns for the tax monies that it is
exacting in the way of tribute to
the versatility of some very adroit
papsuckers making headquarters at
Carson City, to come out for the
particular purpose of getting first
hand information from a man who
is not running for office, but who
has most intimate knowledge of the
lavish manner in which the taxpay-
ers' money has been spent by the
man who served, for some time, as
state engineer and now, after the
miserable record he made during his
tenure of that office, has the
audacity to ask the people to elect
him to the highest executive posi-
tion in the state. Mr.. Kearney
knows things that you ought to
know, and he is qualified to tell
them to you in such a way that
there can be no doubt remaining in
your mind relative to whom it is
your best interests to vote for at
the coming election, if you want to
elect man for governor who knows
the full value of dollar and who
will observe something akin to the
rules of economy in the disburse-
ments of public monies.
kearney can tell you some inside
facts, without being inspired by the
selfish desire to play upon your pas
sions and partisan prejudices. Kear-
ney knows! And Kearney, COM
nonsense tells you, is in the same
position that you are, he merely de-
sires--as does every sensible tax
payer-that a house-cleaning take
place, for he is quite sure that
new broom will do some clean
sweeping, for a time, at least.
Turn out to the meeting tonight,
and listen to plain truths coming
from the mouths of plain, decent
men, who want to aid you in bring
ing about change that will profit
you.

IDAHO SHEEP COMPANY BUYS
A BIG BAND OF SHEEP HERE

The Battle Creek Sheep company
has just completed the shipment of
about 5000 head of sheep from
Jungo and Golconda to the COM
pany pastures in the vicinity of
Mountain Home, Idaho. The sheep
were purchased from Peter Egos-
cue, one of the most prominent
sheep raisers in this county, and
are said to have been in remark
ably good shape for feeders and
commanded top prices. The Battle
Creek Sheep company will carry
the sheep through the winter, on
excellent grazing lands and antici-
pate getting top-o'- -the-market prices
for every head in the spring.

EFFORT TO BE MADE TO
CONTRACT WOOL AT Soc

Well founded rumor has it that
wool buying companies are already
interested in the wool of Humboldt
county sheep which is to be clipped
next spring and are rather feeling"
their way as to the possibility of
contracting clips at this time at
price around thirty-six cents per
pound. 1t is known that at least
one wool buyer has been in this
community recently, but with what
success along the lines mentioned
is not known. Thirty-six cents for
wool means prosperity for the sheep
growers and with such a figure
mentioned this early it is possible
that the figures may go higher. So
far as known no contracting has
been done for years so many
months in advance of clipping time,
and willingness to buy is ascribed
to the stabilizing influence of the
Republican tariff law.

DON'T MISS SEEING THAT
FILM "WEST OF PECOS"

Dorothy Dalton and Rudolph
Valentino, in moran of the Lady
Lefty" splendidly entertained screen
fans at the American theatre last
night, with a perturbation of sea
life, hard-boiled and otherwise; and
the transforming of a lounge-liz-
ard into a red-blooded America
gentleman.
Tonight Manager Oastler. is GO
ing to introduce Eugene O'Brien to
his patrons in that screen of laugh
ter, "Chivalrous Charlie" with "See-
ing the Unseen," as the opening
for prompt arrivals.
Tomorrow night Neil Hart will be
screened in "West of the Pecos,"
which comes touted as a "rapid-
fire western story" 1t is not for
The Silver State critic to say that
the picture will give vivid de-
lineation of life in that one-time
romantic section of country, but
his thorough familiarity with a Sec
ton that was, for years, best de-
scribed by the phrasing, mo law
west of the Pecos," qualities him to
tell patrons of the American theatre
that If the picture merely hits of
that country, in very feeble way
it will be well worth seeing. The
critic has covered almost every foot
of that country and it yet retains
a lure for the man of "guts and
gristle" that now exists in no other
part of the United States, this side
of Alaska. Don't miss "West of
the Pecos." The name sounds
mighty good and if the picture
fails of measuring up to expecta-
tions we are going to yelp like a
coyote, doubling with a panther.

JUNIOR PROM TOMORROW
NIGHT WILL BE GRAND

Invitations are out today for the
Junior Promenade at the high school
tomorrow night and the boys and
girls who will be the future con-
trollers of the destinies of this
county have spared no pains to
provide entertainment out of the
ordinary for those who attend.
Attention is called to the fact
that invitations were not sent out
to those who have the proud dis
tinction of being classified as of the
alumnae or alumni, as it was taken
for granted that they fully realize
that they are not only welcome, but
are possessed of the inalienable
right to attend everything in the
nature of school functions, at any
and all times, as honored guests
and privileged characters.

THIS WAS THE COOLEST SPOT
IN THE u. S. SUNDAY NIGHT

According to reports of the
weather observers and reporters
throughout the United States, VIM
nemucca was, last Sunday night,
the coolest spot in the United States,
with the thermometer registering II
below freezing.
Records of the local bureau dis
close the fact that it was the cold
est October night, barring one, dur
ing period of forty-four years
and as it came unexpected, and un-
heralded, following a day that was
markedly autumnal, it was a sure
enough surprise.
The plumbers who are putting
in the water and steam fittings in
the new Humboldt hotel building
failed to drain the water pipes when
they quit work, Saturday night,
and as result the pipes bursted en-
failing loss to the contractor of
about $500, he estimates.

ELECTION FEW DEMOCRATS

Thos. ]. Defenbaugh, the Re-
publican nominee for assemblyman,
was in town today, mixing with
friends and voters. Mr.. Defen-
baugh is not indulging in any vain
boasting when he says that, from
all information he can CLEAN, it
looks to him like there may be
some Democrats elected in this
county and he feels quite sure that
the Democratic nominee for dis
trict attorney, L. G. Wilson, and
one or two other Democrats who,
like Mr.. Wilson have no opponents,
are going to be elected by quite a
nice majority. The balance of
them will probably be defeated,
seems to be the opinion.

BE ON TIME!

Reports from over Tennessee indi-
cate a growing appreciation of re-
sponsibil:ty on the part of the voter
and a desire to reward men whose
service in the Sixty-Second General
Assembly entitled them to reward
Among the announcements SO far
we have noticed those of Senator j.
T. Durham of Gallatin, Senator W.
G. Overton, of Cookeville, Senator
Eugene ]. Bryan of Chattanooga, and
Representative Sam r. Bratton of
Union City.
All of these men have been tried
and they have proved to be true to
the trust imposed in them.
Their return to Nashville will be
for the best interests of the State.
Men in the upper house whose
presence will be missed include Sena-
ator WV. Bond of Brownsville, Sen
ator Edgar j. Graham of Centreville
and Senator Bradley McGinness of
Carthage. This is trio that fought
the forces of corruption tooth and
nail. They are kept at home through
the agreement that gives the nomi-
nation to adjoining counties.
They will be missed, although
there is consolation in the evident in
tentiOn of the districts thew renre-
sent to return men who will pick up
the burden where their predecessors
dropped it.
The most encouraging political
ign of the day is the interest that
hat people are taking in scanning
the records of individual Legislators.
