WinnemnCCd Possesses q
Lighting system TO Be
Proud Of

IN size of Winnemucca can boast
of purer water supply or better
electric light system.
has been investigating the plant that
furnishes the town with light and
water and has found it to be modern
in every respect.
Winnemucca has two sources of
water supply. One is in the high
mountains south of town. Twelve
hundred feet above the level of the
streets is a substantially constructed
reservoir holding three-quarters of a
million gallons of water which comes
from springs higher up the gulch.
This water is clear and sparkling.
There is no possibility of animal or
vegetable taint and the water con-
tains no alkalis.
A pipe line four miles long conveys
this water to the lower reservoir, sit
uated a short distance above town,
just high enough to give ample pres
sure for fire-fghting.
This reservoir holds several hun
dred thousand gallons and is substan-
TALLY constructed of cement. 1t is sur
rounded by a board and barbed wire
fence, preventing pollution of the
water.
The reservoir is emptied and thor
oughly cleaned twice a week, so that
no fungus growth is possible. While
the reservoir is empty the pressure on
the hydrants is just as strong and
the water supply as adequate as al
other times. because then the water
from the upper reservoir is conducted
around the reservoir in another pipe
1 line.
The water supply in the mountains is
being extensively developed. Springs
are opened up in order to secure
stronger flow Owing to the large
amount of snow this season the spring
water supply will be much greater
than usual.
When the water fails in the noun
toins the supply comes from bored
well. Tests have been made which
show that this second supply is pure
and wholesome, very different from
the slough water that formerly sup
piled the town in the dry season.
Winnemucca has always had a
number of cases of typhoid fever dur
ing the summer while the surface

q Town That is pICntifuIIy
Supplied With Pure
Wafer

The former corporation that suppli-
ed Winnemucca with water was known
as the Winnemucca Water company.
II was a San Francisco corporation,
nearly all the stock in which was held
by Francis Smith & Co., of that city.
They spent little or no money on
their property and every month large
sum of money was sent out of the
town.
On April Is, 1901, E. Reinhart and
others of this town purchased the
plant and incorporated as the Win
nemucca Water & Light company
A controlling interest in the stock is
held here.
The new company set to work i'm
mediately and thoroughly reconstruct
ed the water system, paying out hun
dreds of dollars every Saturday night
for labor alone
Then work began upon the electric
light plant, which was started in July
and completed by the middle of De-
cember 1t was the beginning of a
new era for Winnemucca when coal
oil was displaced for electricity.
The company is continuing and
will continue to make improvements,
considering efficiency rather than cost.
BY the way, there have been a num-
Der of spoken and printed criticisms
of the company that the writer be-
lieves to be baseless. The company
is said by some to be making mint
of money out of the users of lights
and water.
There is an answer to that charge
that is amply sufficient.
THE stock in this company is for
sale, any portion or all of it, for ex-
actly what it has cost us. We have not
made a cent and do not expect to for
several years"
Thus spoke one of the officers of the
company He and his associates are
ready to part with their holdings to
any individual. corporation or the
municipality without cent of profit.
1t is only fair that both sides of a
controversy should be made openly and
this is what actuated the writer in
publishing this article.
Praise, not censure. should be be-
slowed upon those who invest their
money in Winnemucca and aid in the
upbuilding of the town,

water was being pumped. Last season
there were only four slight cases and
this, a physician informs the Silver
State, was doubtless due to the new
water supply furnished by the present
company.
The we'll in question is to be sunk
deeper and enlarged in diameter. The
company has received $500 worth of
machinery for this purpose.
The lighting of the town is done
By the same company that furnishes
the water. This innovation did much
to place Winnemucca in the list of
progressive towns.
There are twelve street arcs. six
commercial arcs and hundreds of in
candescents now in use and more
business houses and residences are
being wired
The distribution of the arcs is such
that the streets are as well lighted if
lot better than any other town in
Nevada In many places there is what
is called the moonlight schedule, but
here the lights burn from dusk to
dawn and there are few or no COM
plants of any of the street lights
going out of commission, as they are
so apt to do if not carefully attended
to. Here is where Bert Zarin gets
in his good work.
The regularity and brilliancy of the
incandescents is another favorable
feature. Tests show that the globes
are illuminated to their indicated
candle power. something that is in
deed unusual.
The power house is situated just
above the lower reservoir. The enor-
nous pressure on the pipe leading
! from the upper reservoir is utilized tc
operate the machines. This serves
dual purpose, for the passing of the
water through the wheel churns and
aerates it. making water even better
and purer.
In addition to the water power there
! is an auxiliary steam plant, which is
always fired up and ready for use
should the water pressure not be suf-
ficient to give the required power, al
though the water pressure is usually
$40 pounds to the square inch. An
other boiler, larger than the one now
in use. has been ordered. An addi-
ton to the power house will be built
in order to accommodate it.
Superintendent Aiken showed the
Silver State reporter through the
power house last evening and ex-
planned the system. Mr.. Aiken is GER
/ tainly a valuable man to the COM
pany.
