Cast First Ballot

Cast First Ballot
Judge Quicker, whose home town
is Winnemucca, but who at present
has his official home in Carson,
with Mrs. Quicker, yesterday took
advantage of the opportunity and
cast their ballots as absentee vot-
trs, thus saving trip to the other
side of the, state just to cast them.
The sealed envelopes were all fixed
up in the office of the county
clerk, to be forwarded to the proper
Humboldt officials, and it is now
too late for friends and office seek
ers to electioneer them. The votes
are as effectually voted as If they
were in the big galvanized iron can
on election day.-Carson City News.

Irrigated District
Plans are well under way for the
improvement of the drainage Of the
land within the Lovelock Irrigation
District. At a meeting of the
trustees Of the district held about
two months ago the board autho-
rized preliminary survey to de-
termine the cost and feasibility of
widening and deepening the outlet
of Humboldt Lake SO as to avoid
the backing up of the water upon
the lower lands Of the district.
The district, which was organized
about seven years ago accomplished
the drainage Of the lands lying
north Of the main east and west
drainage canal, but failed to i'm
prove conditions below the canal and
on account of the insufficiency of
the size of the exit into the Carson
Sink has caused the repeated food
ing and raising of the water table
on the lands below the canal caus-
ng inestimable damage to crops
and to the soil. So different has
been the result of the construction
Of the drainage system on the lands
lying on the north and on the south
Of the canal that the canal has been
nick-named the mason and Dixon
line."
The lands lying south of the
canal comprise about ten thousand
acres of the richest lands in Love-
lock valley, and the completion OF
the drainage system will result in
these lands becoming occupied, and
producing farms will Immediately
spring up and dump their bounty
into the lap Of Lovelock.
r. E. Tilden, county surveyor Of
Humboldt county, has been in
charge of the preliminary work and
reports that his preliminary data
indicates that at a comparatively
small cost the drainage system can
be made completely successful and
adequate.

Editor Silver State: In your is
sue of October 14th you spoke
kindly Of Miss Otis return to Win
nemucca, from her trip abroad, and
referred to her as 'the leader of
the Christian Science cult of this
city"
While Miss OFT appreciates your
kindly reference to her she does
not like to be regarded as leader
among the Christian Scientists
there, but merely as a worker.
Those Christian Scientists who
devote all their time to the heal
ing of the sick and SHINING and to
the promotion Of the cause of
Christian Science should not be
regarded as leaders since Christian
Science churches are strictly demo-
cratic in their government and one
member has no more authority than
another.
Mrs. Mary Baker Eddy is the
recognized leader Of the Christian
Science movement. Through her
writings and her example Christian
Scientists follow the leadings of
Truth in healing the sick and re-
forming the sinner, nevertheless,
she asked US to follow her only so
far as she followed Christ.
In her message to The Mother
Church for 1902 Mrs. Eddy says:
right is the only real potency; and
the only true ambition is to serve
God and to help the race -. i.
Competition in commerce, deceit in
councils, dishonor in nations, dis
honesty in trusts, begin with Who
shall be GREATEST" again re-
peat, Follow your Leader, only SO
far as she follows Christ"

Bad Accident
An accident occurred at the cor
ner of Williams avenue and Tay-
lor street Monday, in which VIM.
darlington had his thigh broken.
He was hauling alum for the Ex-
pertinent Farm with a two-horse
team. As he approached Williams
avenue from the east with the
empty wagon, Jay Babb, with his
truck and trailer, came out west
on the avenue and a car standing
near the corner seems to have OBJ
scured his view Of the team, to-
gether with the blind on the side
Of the cab, and in turning short to
the left into Taylor street was
about to collide with the team, when
Talkington turned his horses sharp
to the left. The truck missed the
horses but it struck the wagon and
Mr.. darlington was thrown to the
ground, his thigh being broken in
striking the hard street. The team
ran a block to the west and was
caught. Mr.. Talkington was taken
to a hospital and is getting along
very well but will be laid up fol
some time.-Churchill County Eagle

IN YEARS GONE BY
TWENTY-FIVE YEARS AGO
(From The Silver State FiIes)

TWENTY-FIVE YEARS AGO
James Longdagon O'Donnell, one
Of Humboldt county's Oldest and
most respected citizens, died at
$50 o'clock Saturday night, at the
residence of Mr.. and Mrs. J. A.
Hill, of heart disease.
The new hotel at Paradise is
now nearly enclosed and will soon
be ready for guests. 1t is a pretty
and commodious building and makes
quite an addition to that town.
Some deer are being killed by
local Paradise Valley hunters and a
party recently returned with fifteen
as their reward. Some fine ones
are reported killed by the Indians.
-Four hundred head of cattle pur-
chased by Miller & Lux from John
Devine will arrive here from the
latter's Oregon ranch today or to-
morrow for shipment to Gilroy,
California.
At the Miller & Lux stables be-
low town are four Of the fines
steers ever seen in any country.
They are magnificent specimens Of
the though-bred Durham breed
and weigh from estimates of ex-
perienced stockmen in the neigh
borhood of $500 pounds each.
twenty-five years ago, even, people
were given to "shootin' the bull" it
seems.)
A large hosting engine has been
sent to the Adelaide mine, near
Golconda, to take the place Of the
one now in use.
A number Of new buildings have
sprung up lately in Golconda. The
town has another saloon-four in
all. The editor was down there a
week ago and he was told that
there are now no saloons in Col
conda. 1t seems that he arrived
there too, too late.)
Quite a lot of prospecting is be-
ing done in the vicinity of Col
conda and if the prospectors do
not prevaricate they are in fair
way on the road to fortune.
A few weeks ago the editor was
taken with a very severe cold that
caused him to be in a most mis-
cradle condition. There seemed to
be something ailing that editor, a
good part Of the time and with all
the remedies that were at his COM
mand, in any one of the half a
hundred saloons scattered over the
scenery
F. J. Button was in town yes
terday. It is likely that sale Of
the copper mines which he and F..
C. Hoenstine own near Golconda
will be contaminated in a short
time.
Henry Stout, the young Indian
arrested for stealing saddle
pleaded guilty to charge Of
petty larceny and was sentenced
to sixty days in Jail and $25 fine,

New Industry--
A corporation has recently been
organized in Lyons county called
the Southwestern Nevada Walnut
Growers. It has taken over q
large ranch and plans to plant $50
to 800 acres to English walnuts in
the spring. An English walnut
tree on the ranch last year pro-
duced over 500 pounds. At the
present price of walnuts this would
be a valuable tree. The company

All Not Peaceful
That Las Vegas residents and
business men are not a unit in de-
mands that the state police be re-
called from that city is evidenced
by communication which have been
received by Governor Boyle. De-
cided stand against having the
police taken away at this time is
taken by the Las Vegas Chamber
or Commerce, according to letter
written by Leslie R. Saunders, ex-
ecutive secretary of the organiza-
ton. E. E. Smith, member Of the
last assembly, has also by letter
expressed the opinion that removal
of the guards now would be unwise.
One letter to the governor claims
that the Democratic party's editorial
calling on the chief executive of the
state to take the state police out of
the town does not in any manner
express the attitude Of the bust
ness men Of the city. Some Las
Vegas men advise continuance of
the present system Of policing un-
til after election day at the earl
lest.
Governor Boyle stated yester-
day, after perusal of the letters
from Las Vegas, that in all prob
ability the force on duty in the
shop town Of Clark county will be
reduced to five or six men in the
near future, possibly Immediately.
The number will be decreased from
time to time as conditions appear
to warrant.--Carson City News.

Just Like JackasslN


A carboy of sulphuric acid was
broken in front Of the Jordan Val
ley Auto Co. Garage last week. The
acid saturated the ground and
filtered into the water of the well
and several people who have
quenched their thirst at the pump
since have imagined that a moon
shine still might have sprung leak
some where in the course of the un-
foreground water supply from the
burning sensation lift in the mouth.
Some have been made quite sick
from using this water, and while
it is not likely enough will get into
the water for serious results it
should be posted as unfit for domes-
tic use for a while.-Jordan Val

Bad Boys Beat Betty
Betty Guffey, wife of DR.. R. L.
Guffey, was the victim Of an out
rageous attack yesterday morning by
one Of brace of boys whom she
found rifiing her store opposite the
Butler theatre. In making their
escape by the rear door, one Of the
lads threw a lump of coal directly
in the face of Mrs. Guffey, knocking
her down and rendering her un-
conscious for half an hour until
the arrival of a painter who admin
istered first aid and then summoned
the lady's husband. The experience
was exceedingly painful but Mrs.
Guffey will not suffer any serious
consequences. The blow caused a
slight conclusion Of the BRAIN

Fell Face Foremost-
Miss Marion McClain is today re-
covering from injuries suffered last
evening at 9 o'clock when she fell
from horse which she was riding.
Miss McClain, it is reported, was
riding a horse towards Commercial
street, on Fourth street. The horse
was galloping, and, in making the
turn at the intersection, slipped and
fell. Its rider was thrown over the
animals head, and fell, face fore
most, to the street. So severe was
the fall, that Miss Mccain was
knocked unconscious, and remained
in this condition for nearly an
hour. Bystanders rushed to her
assistance, and carried her to the
Mayer hotel. Medical aid was sum-
moned, and it was determined that
no bones had been broken as the
result Of the accident.-Elko Inde-

New Industry
The additional machinery needed
for the operation of the Lovelock
Creamery has arrived and is rapidly
being installed. 1t is expected that
the initial run will be made tomor-
row and by the first of next week
can be operated to full capacity.
Mr.. Sattler has taken a long lease
upon the old creamery and has
been promised the hearty support Of
the dairymen in the Lovelock val
ley to assist in the making of the
industry a success. Many Of the
farmers of the valley are investing
in dairy stock. Chester Anker of
the lower valley returned the first
Of the week with a carload of
thoroughbred Holsteins. The cream
cry has been remodeled into a mod
ern plant and should be a great
asset to this section as it opens up
market for local production

FORD'S GREATEST WONDER.

Louis F. Wehrli was all smiles last
night. He was dusting up his show
room and moving everything out.
When asked to explain he said: I've
known this for several days, but I've
waited for it to come, before saying
anything. AS soon as St. Tammany
people learn what I've got, this show
room wont hold them. It's the lat
est thing that the ingenuity of Mr..
Ford has put on the market, and it
sells for 5000. It's made for the
farmer and there is no profit in it
for Mr.. Ford. He simply wants to
put the farmer on his feet. This
new Ford can be used as tractor,
a truck or coupe. It will gather
peas or plant corn or cut hay. 1t
will do everything that is needed to
be done on a farm, and you couldn't t
stick it in the mud to save your life.
Come around tomorrow and you can
see it. 1t will be on exhibition in
this room and everybody that wants
to can-see it. But l will not be allow
ed to sell it this month. All p,l
afraid of is that orders will come so
fast that I can't supply them.

Louis Labdigang Is Found
Dead In Yard of Home
Near Slidell
RESIDENT OF PARISH
FOR THIRTY YEARS
Measuring Party Has Fine
Musical Program; News
and Personal Notes
o the St. rammany Farmer:

To the st. Tammany Farmer:
Slidell, March 29.-Louis Labdi-
gang, a native Of Alsace, France, 65.
years of age, and a resident of st.
Tammany parish for 80 years, was
found dead in the yeard Of his home
three miles east of Slidell, last Fri
day evening, March "a. The young
son of neighbor who had gone to
the Labdigang place on an errand
aobut 4 o'clock, discovered the life
less body lying near one Of the gates
of the Enclosure, where the deceased
had probably fallen and expired sew
enal hours previously. The authori-
ties were notified and DR.. Griffith,
after viewing the remains, announc-
ed death to be due to natural causes.
The deceased for several years has
been incapac1tated by chronic rheu-
matism but was able to do light
work on his farm. He was married
but living alone at the time of his
death, his wife being employed in
New Orleans. She returned home on
the first train after being summoned
by telegraph.
The deceased was a man of quiet.
INDUSTRIOUS habits and for many years
was employed around the brick work
at Slidell. He was a practical gard
ener and at one time did much work
propagating and setting out fruit
trees and Towering plants.
Labdigang came to America at the
close Of the Franco-Prussian war in
which conflict he served as a soldier
of France. He was familiar with
the geography Of that part of France
and Germany embraced in the great
World War and followed events in
that cataclysm with interest.
Interment of the remains was made
Sunday morning at Oak Grove burial
grounds,
