LIBERTY MY A SUCCESS
•
Many of the Ranchers Brave the
Rain and Gome Into Eureka
for the Oonnty’s Lib
erty Day
Liberty Day in Eureka was a happy
one despite the storm and rain, for
over thirty-six thousand dollars of
the county’s quota was subscribed or
pledged before midnight of October
2nd. Many of the ranchers came in
for the holiday, and schools through
out the county were closed.
Owing to the fact that the South
ern Pacific train, which was to bring
in the speakers of the day, was late
in arriving at Palisade, the local train
could not leave there until after 10
o’clock, which caused a change in the
plans of the committee. The after
noon’s entertainment, a free moving
picture, was given in the evening af
ter the speaking.
L. A. Gibbons and Brewster Adams,
both of Reno, addressed a crowded
house and held the audience spell
bound while they told in detail what
the country had done, and was do
ing. They had just returned from
Washington and brought with them
.the news of the glorious work that
“our boys” are doing at the front.
Both speakers seemed to feel that
the gloom which had surrounded our
administration throughout the past
months was about dispelled, and that
the war- ought to be concluded in
1919 if the people at home would
stand back of the boys.
xo conclude tne war at tnat time
will mean that clothing, food, am
munition, guns, and equipment of all
sorts in enormous quantities will be
required, and these things can only
be furnished to the boys by the sale
of the Liberty Bonds—or by the more
undesirable method of taxation.
At the conclusion of the speeches,
a blackboard was placed upon the
platform and subscriptions for bonds
started. Members of the Council of
Defense, and of the Woman’s Liber
ty Loan Committee, circulated appli
cations, and in less than 30 minutes
over twelve thousand dollars were
subscribed.
“The Kaiser, the Beast of Berlin,”
was the war film secured by the
Council of Defense for the day, and
by it were portrayed many of the
agonies which the Belgiums were
obliged to endure at the hands of
Prussians; also the methods adopted
by the Huns for the crushing of their
enemies and the rewarding of their
murderous emissaries such as the
captain of the submarine that sunk
the Lusitania.
The Lobster Club Band, which had
rendered several selections before the
meeting began,then took the plat
form and started the dance pro
gramme which continued until 4
o’clock a. m._
Since the above was written more
subscriptions have been reported,
making the total now about $40,000.
NOTICE
A special meeting of the Council of
Defense will be held at the Court
House on Monday evening, October
7th, at 7:30 o’clock. Business of im
portance is to be transacted and
every member should be present.
former Eureka friends. Mr. Light
foot now owns and is developing sev
eral mining claims on the west side
of White Pine mountain, near the
Seligman property. The mines are
producing and a part of his business
here was to arrange for the ship
ment to the Salt Lake smelters of 40
tons of high grade lead ore.
Handley Bros, have about con
cluded arrangements with F. W.
Ahlers to put down two wells and
try for artesian water. The first trial
will be made in Diamond Valley near
what is known as the Rye Patch,
about three miles east of Diamond
Station, and those acquainted with
conditions there believe there is lit
tle doubt of obtaining a good flow
and at no great depth. The location
for the second well has not been de
termined as yet.
The new combination passenger,
mail and express car that Manager
J. E. Sextion has had built for service
over the Eureka Nevada Railway has
been received at Palisade and is ex
pected to make a trial run over the
road next Sunday. W. H. Russell
went down to Palisade to-day and
will have charge of the motor until
the new car is pronounced ready for
regular service. While the Sentinel
is without details regarding this new
car, it is understood to have been
built with every convenience for
traveling and is capable of making
unusally fast time.

MUST PAY IN ADVANCE
All subscribers who are re
ceiving The Eureka Sentinel
through the mail are requested
to pay up a once. The Govern
ment requires that we shall col
lect in advance after the first of
October, and in the meantime
those in arrears must remit im
mediately or we shall be obliged
to discontinue the paper. The
order from Uncle Sam is very
explicit and the penalty far
reaching for the publisher who
disregards the mandate.
Let us hear from you.
Abundance of Early Feed Probable
The frequent and heavy rain falls
during the past two weeks in this
section and over most of the State is
expected to prove of great benefit to
the stock ranges. As there have been
no frosts and the weather has con
tinued warm, new grass has already
obtained a good start and is now re
ported from two to three inches high
in many places. Even if it freezes
down now the roots will have a good
start in the Spring and stockmen are
looking forward to an abundance of
early feed.
Ore Shipments To Smelters

over the local railway this week:
Five cars by the Peerless Mining
Company from Prospect mountain.
