While its history Is nat urally yoked up with that of the Mother State, there are many ! points in which the two sections of Virginia were divergent and It was for this reason that West Virginia finally became a sepa rate state.

Most of the history of the state centers in this Western section, near the Sierras, and it is here tha't all of Nevada's principal cities are located. The first white man to cross the present state was the Fran. clscan Monk, Father Gares, whos made his way across the deserts to California in 1775. In 1825 Peter 5. Ogden of the Hudson's Bay company discovered the Humboldt river, which is some times called Ogden river after him. The next memorable trip across the state was that by Fremont in 1843, when he went to California at the time of the outbreak of the Mexican war. It was thuis war which in 1848 resulted in Mexico cedling a large area to the United States, of which Nevada was a part. WVhen this was organized into terri tories, the Territory of Utah ex tended to California. The WVest ern inhabitants, however, were left to their own resources and accordingly organized their own government. Rlesecnting the at titude of Utah they petitioned to be annexed to California, In 1859 the Comstock Lode was discovered and Nevada hind its own mining boom, Popula tion imimedilately grew by leaps and bioundls alnd ini 1861 Nevada was formed into a separate ter ritory. Later, portions of Utah were added and the lower part of the state was taken from Ari zona. Petitions for statehood were made but It was not until 1864 that Nevada became the thiirty-sixth state of the Union. . Though Nevada ranks slith I In size with its area of 110,00 square miles, It has the smallest pop~ulation of any of thce 48 states. Between 1800 and 1900 there was a marked decrease in the population due to the falling off of mining industry.
