WATER STORAGE IN NEVADA.

F. H. Newell, chief hydrograph-
er of the United States Geological
Survey, has been at Reno inspect
ing the work being done in the
systematic measurements of the
water supply of Nevada and of the
reservoir surveys on the drainage
basin of the Truckee river. Mr..
Newell, being interviewed by a
Gazette reporter, said:
81. H. Taylor of Golconda has
charge of these operations in Ne
vada. He is preparing complete
report on the Truckee river from
Lake Tahoe down, showing the
flow of the stream at various
points and the possibility of a more
complete utilization of its waters
for irrigation, power and indus
trial purposes. Estimates are also
being made of the cost and capaci-
ty of various reservoirs.
Similar surveys are being car
ried on in other States of the arid
West, particularly in California,
where great interest has been
aroused by the Water and Forest
Association. The society has raised
considerable sums, which it has
placed at the disposal of the Unit
ed States Geological Survey for
examining the water resources, and
by its large membership has made
possible the creation of a strong
public sentiment toward action by
taking up water conservation.
Plans are made to go before the
State Legislature and Congress for
the construction of reservoirs and
hydraulic works. Whether such
construction work is undertaken
in Nevada or not by Congress will
depend largely upon the people of
the State following similar lines of
self-help or assisting the National
Irrigation Association in its cam
paign of education"

will lose nearly every State in the
Union.
Grosvenor's statements are the
strongest argument yet advanced
why every silver voter should
work with all his strength to Sc
cure the success of Mr.. Bryan. 1t
is, too, the most complete answer
to the Republican prophesies of
evil to follow the election of Bryan,
for if evil followed his election or
followed the passage of free coin
age measure, the Republicans
would win a sweeping victory two
years later instead of losing heavily
as Grosvenor says they will lose.

THE Standard Oil Company will
be purchasing the product of Cali
fornia oil wells within a few days,
now having on the way from the
East number of tanks for use in
storage. These will go to Bakers
field, where ground has been Sc
cured for them, and the capacity
of the tanks is great enough to
handle the entire product of the
Kern River field. Representatives
of the Standard Oil Company will
be in Bakersfield in consultation
with the officials of the Producers
Association, and the entrance of
the Standard into California may
be in conformity with the wishes
of the producing companies. At
any rate, it is expected that the
great company will make the pro-
ducers a proposition looking to
taking the entire production of all
the companies.

A CONFESSION FROM GROSvENOR.

of the present fiscal legislation and
the substitution of free silver as
the policy of the United States in
the place of existing conditions "
Mr.. Grosvenor goes on to show
that when the vacancies from Utah,
Montana, Delaware and Pennsyl
vania are filled the present Senate
will have fifty-four votes against
silver and thirty six for silver. He
says that in the ordinary course,
if Bryan wins, silver men will be
sent to the Senate in place of the
following retiring senators: Baker
of Kansas, Gallery of Louisiana
(silver man already chosen to sue
coed him), Carter of Montana,
Chandler of New Hampshire, FL
kins of West Virginia, Lindsay of
Kentucky Silver man already
chosen to succeed him), Shoup of
Idaho, Thurston of Nebraska, War
rem of Wyoming and Wolcott of
Colorado.
Those changes alone will make
the Senate meeting on March d
next stand forty-six for silver and
forty-four against.
ct may be said" adds Grosven-
or, "that Chambers successor will
be a gold standard man, and he
probably will be, but if Bryan
sweeps the country we are as much
likely to lose Nelson in Minnesota,
Cullom in Illinois and Mcmillan in
Michigan as to gain that one. The
enemy will start with a majority
of two and will be as likely to gain
as to lose.
The reaction which can give the
election to Bryan would give
thirty-hve Democratic majority in
the House and drive all the weak
Senators over to safely 1t will be
easy tocapture here and there one.
Assuming that Bryan is elected
this year, Grosvenor passes along
to consider the senatorial elections
two years hence. while the Re-
publicans cannot gain a man." he
says, they will almost surely lose
Deboe of Kentucky, Fairbanks of
Indiana, Hansbrough of North Da-
kota, Kyle of South Dakota, Mason
of Illinois, Pritchard of North Car
DINA, Simon of Oregon, Wellington
of Maryland, if he has not already
gone, Foraker of Ohio and Perkins
of California. The two Platts of
New York and Connecticut and
Spooner of Wisconsin would at
least be in great peril"
Grosvenor, it will be seen, be-
lieves that if Bryan is elected this
year the Democrats and allied
parties will carry practically every
State in the Union two years
hence. Indiana, North Dakota,
Illinois, Oregon, Ohio, California,
New York, Connecticut and Wis
consin--all are conceded by Gros-
venor as lost to the Republicans
two years hence if Bryan is elect
ed this year. And this confession
is made, too, Notwithstanding that
Grosvenor believes a victory for
Bryan this year will be accom-
panied by the election of a silver
House and Senate. Here is what
he says:
ut follows as surely as the day
follows night, if Bryan is elected
and calls the extra session of Con-
gress as he has promised, he can
draft a bill as he did the Kansas
City platform, send it to the Con-
gress and demand, in like tenn
per with his Lincoln ultimatum,
the passage of bill to conform to
the platform on which he was

THE ASSEMBLY MEETING
TO BE HELD TO-DAY WILL DOUBT

ESTIyG.
THE RAILROAD ORDINANCE
VIII Be the Most Important Subject
Under Confederation General
Manager of the Pittsburg, Councils
Vile and Wheeling Company VIII
Be Present, as Well as a Conn
mittee Representing the Chamber
of Commerce.

The meeting OF the Trades Assembly
10 be held this afternoon will, in all
probability, be one of the most inter-
esting in the history of that body. The
Assembly, at its last regular meeting,
adopted resolutions against the ratifi-
cation of the ordinance providing for a
subscription by Ohio county of half a
million dollars to the capital stock of
the Uniontown. Waynesburg & West
Virginia Railroad Company. Friends
OF the railroad project have alleged
that the action of the Assembly was
hasty and i'll advised. and a number Of
representative laboring men have de-
clared their purpose to support the or
dinance.
The Chamber of Commerce, taking
the view that with a fuller and better
understanding of the situation the
laboring people would view the matter
in a different light. appointed a COM
mittee to confer with the Assembly.
Il
day, and will no doubt be accorded the
courtesy of hearing. Whether or not
the Assembly will reconsider its ac-
ton, and whether if it reconsiders, it
will reverse its position, are proble-
NAUTICAL questions.
Edgar "A. Holmes, general manager
of the Pittsburg, Connellsville &
Wheeling Railroad Company, which is
generally looked upon as a rival to the
Uniontown, Waynesburg & West Vir-
ginia road, was in the Register Office
yesterday and stated that he will APP
pear before the Assembly this after
noon. Whether or not he comes by
invitation or of his own volition he did
not say.
The friends of the L., w. & w. Va.
project alleged that the rival road has
no legal standing, that ii has no char
ter in the State of Pennsylvania, and
that the scheme is being worked purely
for speculative purposes. They point
out the folly of encouraging an enter
prise which they say will extend sim
ply from the State line to the Ohio
river.
Mr Holmes, on the contrary, Is
equally positive in his assertions that
his company is a bona tide one, and
proposes to construct a railroad to
ConnellsUlle. He submitted a rough
diagram in the Register Office, show
ing the route of the projected railroad
in this State. from the Pennsylvania
line it goes to point known as Shepn-
erd's, where one branch goes north
west to Wheeling and the other south
west 70 Moundsyille. The north
branch also divides and a line goes to
Benwood.
Nj. Holmes says his company does
not ask a cent of Ohio county, and Of
fers the same advantages as the L.,
". & w. Va, and that therefore the
ordinance should be defeated by Ohio
county voters.
All these conflicting statements and
Numerically opposite views will prob
ably be brought out on the floor of the
Assembly to-day, as the labor vote is
recognized as a potent factor in deter
mining the result on the 18th inst.

Q.-How do our mills now obtain
their supply of coke?
A.-By the way of Pittsburg. Every
ton of coke must first go to Pittsburg
before coming to Wheeling.
Q.-What will be the saving in
freight to our mills by transporting
coke direct over the proposed u, w. &
W. Va railroad?
Avery steel mill in this commun-
ity will save so cents on each and every
ton of coke, thereby putting them on
an equality with Pittsburg so far as
freight rates are concerned.
Q.-How may we be assured of this?
A.-The ordinance upon which we are
to vote on July II guarantees that the
T., W. & W. Va. railroad shall not
charge for transportation a greater rate
for freight than is legally charged be-
tween Connellsville and Pittsburg on
any other railroad.
Q.-What benefit will Wheeling de-
rive from cheaper freight rates?
A.-Wheeling and vicinity will be put
upon an equality with Pittsburg, and
be enabled to manufacture her steel
products for so cents per ton cheaper
than she does now, which in dull sea-
sons means the steady operation of our
steel plants, giving steady employment
to labor. Fifty cents per ton means
S350,000 per annum to this community.
Every man employed in manufac-
tory; every man employed in a whole
