MATERIAL REDUCTIONS
ORE RATES IN NEVADA

Information received from the pub
lie service commission of Nevada Is
to the effect that the commission has
procured the establishment of a COM
modify rate on ores, concentrates and
sulphurets In carloads from various
places In the state to the Toulon
smelter at Toulon, New, much lower
than the present class rates. The
new rates are published by the
Southern Pacific Company to become
effective April and the effect of the
reduction Is shown by comparison
OF the new with the old rates from 4
few representative points.
From Reno the new rate on $50
ore Is $1.10 per ton, on 500 ore
S1.7o per ton, compared with which
was the old rate of Sc per ton. From
Hazen the new rates are 80 cents and
$1.10. while the old rate was $40.
From Wabuska the rates will be
$1.10 and $3.50, instead of $40, as
heretofore, and Nina is given rates
OF $2.20 and $3.50 in place of the
former rate of $10.40. Ore from
Mill City Will take rate of so cents
or s1.1o. depending on its value.
while the old rate on all ore was
$40. and the Sc Winnemucca rate
Is reduced to $1.10 and $3.50. Elko
and Cobre have been required to pay
$11 and $3.50. respectively. but the
new rates will be $3.50 and 1920 for
Elko and $3.50 ard $3.50 from
Cobre.
This Is good rate adjustment and
should enable the Toulon plant to be-
come established and 1t is hoped that
1t will assist in the rehabilitation OF
the mining industry in Nevada.
After several months correspond
ence the pubic service commission OF
Nevada has procured the establish
ment by the Southern Pacific Com
pany of rate of 80 cents per hun
dred pounds on animal manure from
points between Reno and Kodak. in
elusive. to Famoso, Cal, and a rate
of 80 1-2 cents from the same points
to Los Angeles and other places in
southern California. These rates will
be effective between April 10 and
30, 1922, and will permit
a heavy movement of this commodity,

ing the very object for which We
strive.
To relieve this situation the Lin
coin Highway Association has offered
to withdraw its request for federal
investigation IL Utah will give even
secondary designation to that piece
of road in its own state which Utah
solemnly contracted to build and to-
ward the construction of which 1t ac-
cepted aid from Carl G. Fisher of
Prestolite to the extent of $4,000
and 100000 from the Goodyear
Tire and Rubber Company and F. A
Seiberling, its former president.
The memorial addressed to Gov
ernor Mabey has already been adopt
cd by over thirty organizations In Ne
vada, such as chambers of commerce,
boards of county commissioners and
city councils, including the governor
and state road commission of Ne
vada. AS many more will adopt it
during the month.
That the request embodied in the
resolutions can be conceded by Utah
Is apparent from the fact that the
regional director Of the bureau of
public roads who has Utah under his
supervision has told the Lincoln
highway officials that 95 per cent of
the inhabitants of Utah will be served
by 1890 miles of highway, which
will leave 270 miles, just double the
amount necessary to include the Lin
coin highway. Utah is entitled TO
federal aid on | ,470 miles.
The Lincoln highway promoters
want to see the Victory highway COM
pleted; they want to see a network
of highways all over the nation; IL
the Lincoln highway had not aroused
a spirit of competition ii would have
failed of its purpose; 1t has always
and always will court and encourage
friendly competition. We hope 9th
ers will try to build better than We
do, so that we will have to put forth
greater efforts to make ours the pat
tern route, but we have high ideals
and any route that hopes to supplant
the Lincoln highway as the Main
street of the nation will have 10 go
some. II the Victory highway wants
that honor we say, more power to II.
We are all working 10 the same
end-to get a highway across the ma
tion with San Francisco as its sole
objective. II two are built, all the
better: but neither should be retard-
ed by the other.

COUNTY TO HAVE MILLION
TO CONSTRUCT ROADS

County Commissioner Robert A.
Baird and County Treasurer Thomas
A. Bath went to Elko Tuesday morn
ing to confer with G.. w. Borden,
state highway engineer, with regard
to federal aid for road projects in
this county. They returned Thurs
day evening and at a meeting OF the
board OF county commissioners held
Friday the result of the conference
was discussed.
There is approximately 81 900, 900
to be apportioned to this county for
the construction of the designated
federal projects and the question dis
cussed was as 10 whether the county
has the power to provide for the pay
ment of the county's share before the
federal payment Is made. The plan
proposed, which will provide for the
payment of the county's share before
the federal payment, is to construct
the first ten miles of the road project.
Upon the certified bill for construc-
ton prepared by the engineers and
presented to the county board the
necessary money will be placed to
the credit of the state highway de-
partment and the payment made from
such amount through the highway
department. After the money has
been put up by the county the pro-
portion of the federal aid will be
advanced within ninety days. This
will enable the highway department
TO provide the funds to match the
federal appropriation and the only
difference will be that the county will
make first payment on the projects
instead of the last payment.
Supervisor A. Mcqueen of the for
est service was present at the meet
ing and informed the board that the
question of federal aid through the
forest reserve on the Current Creek
summit road and the Connors pass
road had been taken up with the dis
triet forester at Ogden, with the re-
suit that both projects would receive
aid through the forest service on a
cooperative construction plan with
the county Application forms for
this aid from the forest service were
given to the board by Mr.. Mcqueen
and the commissioners will determine
the amount OF funds available for this
work and make application TO the for
est service for the appropriation.
A communication was received
from Charles A. Thompson. chairman
of the good roads committee OF the
Phoebe Commercial Club, regarding
the making of repairs on the Lake
valley and Spring valley road from
Geyser to junction with the
Shoshone road The board instruct
ed the clerk to write to the Pioche
Commercial Club and inform them
that the county would make some
repairs on this road as soon as wealth
er conditions would permit of the
road-building outfit being taken over
Connors pass.
