pleyed ut the various mines but Spring
will certainly see White Horse district
II very busy and prospt ron community.
1t may prove a second Comstock and
enable Nevada to furnish gold to the
world this time.
A wagon road from the flat to White
Horse City is now a necessity NJ the
present road being in the gnlch will he
washed N by this Winters floods and
the parties now engaged in developing
various properties desire to continue
during The inter. Several weeks ago
Snpt. Mayberry OF the Washoe Company
appeared before the Board of County
Commissioners, stated the case 10 tliem
and the necessity of immediate action.
The Commissioners informed Mr.. May
berry that they would be willing 10 APP
propriale hall the cost OF building ii the
road WAS needed badly enough by the
citizens of Nadswor,h to warrant the
citizens in subscribing hall Of the cost,
and Mr.. Maylerrv was requested TO
make an estimate on the probable cost.
This matter greatly concerns Watls-
worth for the simple reason that work
will be facilitated during the Winter TO
such al extent tina we will know beyond
doubt whether or not 10 go ahead with
work on claims that have not been
opened up at all. Tie prospects at
present all tend to show that Spri ing
will see great activity at White Horse
and the first thing needed will lie a good
road. If the road is not there it will
certainly rctard work on new claims for
several months and Wadsworth cannot
afford to be slow in the matter.
The DISPATCH does not believe
that the citizens of Wadsworth
should be called upon to subscribe
anything but it does believe
that they should take this matter
in hand vigorously and convince the
Board of County Commissioners that
we regard it our right to receive help on
county work when such work is needed
in this district. 1t is indeed very sell
dom that Wadsworth asks anything
from Washoe county and a coming of
the county books will show that Wads-
worth has never made an unjust request
in anything in which the expenditure Of
public money was concerned Wads-
worth is constantly improving and the
county must keep pace with cur citizens
in making Improvements. At present
a little common work for the White
Horse road will benefit the entire COM
munity.
