SPECULATION ON 1922
WOOL CLIP IN NEVADA

Circumstances are bearing out
the feeling that speculation on the
1922 clip can be expected. The
fact of the matter is that under
present quotations on the Boston
market a price of 23c or better
hardly seems justified for Nevada
wool of the 1922 clip. Recent Bos-
ton quotations give top price
clean for grades Of wool comparable
to Nevada's average clips Of about
80 cents. Figuring our wool shrinks
at least Sc 2-3 per cent and that il
costs from four to five cents to get
the wool to Boston and sell it, this
would mean that compared with the
Boston quotation our wool averaged
for the state is worth on the Boston
basis one-third the Boston price less
the expense, or about 21c or 22c
and this is at top quotations; fur
ther, the average shrink of Nevada
woods, according to government re-
ports, is slightly greater than the
two-thirds basis. 1t looks like the
buyers are expecting sharp raises
in prices for wool the coming spring
and are figuring on cleaning up by
contracting at fairly low prices be.

BOOT[EGGERs CO
TO FEDERAL JAIL
United States Comnissioner s. }
Bonaifisld Holds E. v. Martin
and Jack McNormand TO
Federal Grand Jury

United States Commissioner s. j.
Bonnifield held the hearings this
morning in the cases Of the United
States against two men giving the
names, E. v. Martin and Jack Nc
Normand, arrested last Wednesday
charged with violations Of the fed
eral prohibition laws, and held each
to answer to the federal grand jury
under bonds of one thousand dollars
in each case. In default of bail
both men will be taken to the
Washoe county jail on No. 10 this
evening. The men conducted their
cases before the United States COM
missioner and complained in acri-
monious terms of their arrest and
prosecution.
Evidence introduced before the
United States commissioner con-
sisted Of the manufactured products
said to have been turned out by
the men on the Pat O'Donnell ranch
ID miles below this city on the
river, where a typical moonshiner's
dugout was given over to moonshine
manufacture. Included in the prod
ucts manufactured and shown this
morning were bourbon, gin and
white mule, and deleterious colorine
materials which were calculated to
make hundred-proof alcohol look
like the real before-the-war brands
Of booze.
Federal authorities who were here
to get the men asserted today that
lack of Jail accommodations at Car
son City has made necessary the
confinement of all federal prisoners
in the Washoe county Jail, which l.
now badly overcrowded with offend
ers against the eighteenth amend
ment to the national constitution
In the meantime the new Ormsby
county Jail is being completed and
will be used within a short time a

ORGANIZED GANG
IN TOLLS OF LAW
Sheriff C. w. Brady and Deputy
Perry Boyd Returned Today
With Four Members of the
Howard Depredators

Sheriff G. w. Brady and Deputy
Perry Boyd returned today from a
trip into the northern part Of this
county, having in custody Jim, Les
ter and Byron Howard and B.
Brown, members of gang that is
alleged to have preyed upon prop
erty in the vicinity Of the we'll
known Howard ranch for several
years. The men were committed
to Jail to await the action of the
county authorities, who will prob
ably lodge larceny charges against
all four men as a result of evidence
now in the hands of the officers.
A. H. Koenig, employed at the
P. L. s. Alder Creek ranch, and
]. E. Middaugh, Of the Ashdown
Mines force, are in this city as COM
planning witnesses.
It is alleged that the Howard
gang has systematically pilfered in
their vicinity for years. Recently
both the Ashdown mine property
and an automobile at the Alder
Creek ranch were made the objects
of the attention of the Howards.
Included in the materials taken
from the mine are tents, mattresses,
bedding and other articles of SINH
lar character. At the Alder Greek
ranch an automobile was stripped
of its tires and certain engine fix
lures.
The Howard ranch lies about go
miles north of this city and Sheriff
Brady and Deputy Boyd made the
trip to that vicinity Thursday. They
made quick work of picking up the
alleged offenders, doing the work
yesterday. The officers deem Fri.
day, the thirteenth, lucky date.
They refer to the present case in
local criminal annals as "a woodrat'
offense. Loot from many places
was found in the possession of the
men arrested, it is asserted.

DRY COPS NO MATCH FOR
HAWAIIAN MOONSHINER:

ACCOMPLISHMENTS tales of
"moonshiners'' and "revenooers" in
the mountains Of Kentuck have a
modern parallel on the island Of
Hawaii-a parallel lacking only the
scenes of armed strife and BLOOD
shed which characterized almost all
efforts to apprehend the moon
sinners.
When the United States went dry
the territory of Hawaii, an integral
part of the nation, followed suit
/ porforce. Dry enforcement officers
were assigned to different parts of
the territory to look to the carrying
out of the new law. The officer to
whom Hawaii island was assigned
found himself confronted with a
territory of over 1000 square miles,
including two mountains practically
$4,000 feet high and one over 5000
feet, with great stretches of wild
and uninhabited country on the
mountain slopes above the sugar
lands which border the seashore.
In a territory Of this nature the
hunting down. of illicit liquor stills
becomes a fine art. Not only must
the searcher know the country,
which is volcanic, in places deeply
eroded, and covered in many places
with 3ungle-like growth, but he
must have the skill Of the noun
taineer and the patience Of stalker
of wild game. To capture a still
under such circumstances is a feat
worthy of record, from which the
absence of stray 5000 bullets de-
tracts not whit.
With a regiment of enforcement
officers Hawaii would be big prob
lem, in dry manner Of speaking
but to cap the climax and make Of
prohibition on Hawaii a farce, the
government allowed, not a hundred
enforcement officers, or fifty, OF
ten, but one. He may capture and
destroy one still now and then, even
frequently, but while he does a hun
dred operate behind his back.

WESTERN PACIFIC
MAY MOVE SHOPS
Word Comes From San Francisco
That Efforts Are Being Made
to Get Railroad Officials
to Move Terminal

Word reaching this city from
San Francisco through different
leading citizens who have been on
the coast during late weeks carries
the statement, in the most persist
ent manner, that the officials Of the
Western Pacific are strongly consid-
ering the project Of changing the
division now ending here for certain
classes Of train traffic to a point
east of here in the vicinity Of Col
conda. 1t is claimed that the shops
may also be moved should the divi-
sion point be changed to eliminate
this city as division point.
It will be remembered that the
Western Pacific Company estab-
lished its shops here and made this
a division terminal as the re-
suit of what has been termed a
gentlemen's agreement wherein the
company was to receive at least
one-half Of the rail traffic arising
in this territory. Complaint has
been made that during recent times
Winnemucca and Humboldt county
business men have varied from the
original understanding, with the re-
suit that the Southern Pacific has
eclipsed its contemporary here in
securing business from the Winnie
mucca territory.
A number Of the citizens of the
community are agitated over the
persistency of the report and point
out the apparent fact that to re-
move the Western Pacific activities
here would bear down very heavily
upon this city's best interests. A
number Of years ago the Southern
Pacific maintained a terminal here,
but later transferred the headquar-
ters to Inlay, with q resultant loss
to this community that is deemed
considerable in Importance when
city building and maintaining fac
tors are under consideration.
Something like fifty heads of
families are said to live in this city
rs a result Of the employment aris-
ing from the Western Pacific rail-
road activities.
The news Of the projected action
Of the Western Pacific is said to
have arisen through the optioning
Of the Matt Anderson ranch in the
Golconda vicinity to a man high up
In the railroad world. This ranch
is traversed by the Western Pacific
line and consists of $500 acres. The
deeds from the seller to the pros
pective buyer have been escrowed
and pending the period of escrow
efforts are said to have been direct
ed at the consummation Of the plan
that would deprive this city Of its
single railroad division ending.
1t has been suggested that the
authorities Of the Humboldt County
Chamber of Commerce and others
OF this city move to learn the facts
behind the rumor, if any there be,
and to acquire statistical data show
ing the division of freight and pas
senger traffic handled in and out of
here by the competing railroads.
The notion is entertained that the
gentlemen's agreement Of a few
years ago, If violated subsequently,

 The flying squadron" reported that over 16,oOO barrels left the Hubert t, Fischer brewery of Park street. with in a year, which, at the same rate, brought the proposed tax against that corporation to about $200,0O0.
 The decision is not yet in the hands of Collector Eaton and he said yester- day that he preferred to withhold comment on it's effect on Connect- cut collections. until a copy had been received from Washington, Judging from newspaper accounts of the decis- ion, however, he centured the opinion that collections already made under warrants of restraint, in liquor cases, would not have to be rebated. Only S1e, GOO was collected on such war rants during the past year. as action has been deferred in many cases pending the Supreme Court decision in the typical Pennsylvania case.
