A DAILY TRAIN FOR KUREKA.
The New Schedule Goes Into Effect
Next Month.

INC New 6GntuHtt oDts hntO sssCC"
Next Month.
On November | the Eureka & Pslisade
Railroad Company will insugurste .
daily train system in and out Of Eursks
Sundays excepsedl. The train will
leave Palisade about 7 A. M. and arrive
in Eureka 81 noon. Returning il will
leave Eureka at l P. NJ. and arrive IN
Pslisade ct 6 p. NJ, in time to connect
with the E~sst-bound Central Pacific
Overland ct 6:2S p. NJ, and with the
west-bouud Overland ct S:36 P. NJ.
This change has been necessitsted on
account of the increased freight and pas
senger travel to the eastern and southern
part Of the State, Eureka being the dis
tributing point for traffic to Hamilton,
Ely, Osceols, Typo, Belmont and other
points which receive their passengers
and freight by stages and teams from Eu-
reks.
Under the new schedule passengers for
the Ely stage will be able to leave before
2 p. M. daily and arrive in Ely at s A. NJ.
the following morning. and this entire
section Of Eastern Nevada will receive
mail ten hours earlier by reason Of the
putting on Of the extra trains on Mon
days, Wednesdays and Fridays than
under the old blackboard system.
This change will be Of especial benefit
to Ely in that travellers can sAve sixty
miles staging in reaching the main rail
road. the distance from Ely 10 Eureka
being ninety miles, while from Ely to
Wells the distance is l54 miles. The
additional sighty-four miles from Eu-
reka to Pslissde makes the entire die
lance from Ely to the main railroad line
but ITO miles. very little in excess Of the
distance by the direct wagon road from
Ely to Wells.

CRUDE OIL THE BEST FUEL.

Daniel G~uggenheim, Chairman Of the
Executive Board of the American Smelt.
ing and Refining Company. is st present
investigating the smelling industry in
Mexico City, and says regarding fuel
that crude oil has beyond oil doubt
passed beyond the experimental stage
and has proved to be far superior for
smelling purposes to oil other fuels that
have been used.
The crude oil used in Mexico comes
from Texas. and California is producing
great quantities Of il. so that the present
vital question of fuel for smelling pur'
poses in this section Of Nevada may be
probably settled by the use Of crude oil.

Eureka weekly sentinel. [volume] (Eureka, Nev.) 1887-1902, 1901-10-05

There was considerable discussion by
the Board regarding the reduction Of the
assessment Of the Central Pacific Rail-
road from SIG, 900 to SIS. 900 per mile
on main track. and from Sc, 600 to S., 600
per mile on side track. The Board was
in doubt about the Advisability Of reduo-
ing the assessment, but finally concluded
that il would be for the best interests Of
the county TO do so, for the reason that
the purpose Of the last Legislature in
passing the law creating the State Board
Of Assessors was to secure . more uni
form valuation Of property. and as every
other county in the State except Lyon
county had accepted the valuation of
$751; 900 per mile on main track and S..
600 per mile on the side tracks; moreover,
there was . strong probability that the
railroad would fight the higher assess.
ment, thereby tying up over one-third Of
the taxes Of the county for an indefinite
period. It was thought that the railroad
would probably retaliats by raising their
freight charges on ores. and - Eureka,
Typo, and Hamilton are wholly depend
emit upon receiving q low rate from the
railroad for the shipment Of their ore'
to the smelling plants, . higher rate
would close nearly al the mines in the
above mentioned camps. They also con
sidersd the fact that the State Board Of
Assessors would meet again next Jauu'
ary and fix the rate for the whole State.
