Since the question of rebuilding the
Orphans Home has come up there has
been much sympathy expressed for the
children there but there is one matter
the Orphans Home Board should not
lose sight of, aui that is to insist that
whoever is appointed Superintendent OF
the Orphans Home for the next four
years shall remain strictly sober while he
occupies that position.
The old war between Carson and Reno
seems likely to break out anew. Both
cities are asking for big appropriations
from the egislatlre-Carson wanting a
Governors mansion and a substantial
building for the Orphans Home, while
theRenoites want all the spare coin in
the State treasury appropriated for new
buildings and homes at the University.
The Carson papers refer to the University
measures as gratis, etc., and ii the Legis-
lature continues in session much longer
the Ratchet will be dug up and there will
be call to arms.

DELAY AT THE RUTH.
Breaking of the Boiler Stops
Sinking at 44O Level.

The unfortunate complete giving out
OF the old boiler at the Ruth last Thur
day night caused all work on the shaft
OF that property to be discontinued for
the present and until such time as the
new boiler, cars and rails, which left
Eureka Monday, shall arrive and be
placed in position
For seine time past the boiler has
leaked great deal and only by ''chink
iugn was the sinking OF the shaft 10
its present depth of 440 feet, made pos
sibe. While awaiting the arrival of the
new boiler, Supt. Gray is getting the
foundation In readiness for its recep-
tion and placing everything about the
works in frst-class condition for the
earliest possible resumption OF opera
tions, which will not be later than 10
days. The dropping down of the shaft
at its established rate of five feet day,
will then be continued to the 500 foot
level before the work OF again cross
cutting the vein will be begun.

FOR PILOT KNOB.
New 60-Horse Power Boiler and
Seven inch Pump Arrived
To-day.
Extensive Operations VIII Soon
Be Begun on Giroux Shaft.

Three teams loaded with machinery
for the Fortuna Grande Copper Com
pany operating the mines at Pilot Knob
the most prominent of which is the
Old Glory, where the Giroux shaft is
situated, will arrive from Toano to-day.
The machinery consists of a new 60
horse power boiler, large hoisting en-
gine, large pump with 7-inch dis
chage, 300 feet OF seven inch pipe and
several hundred feet OF four-inch steam
pipe, all Of which will be placed In op-
Grafton on the Giroux shaft as rapidly
as the smaller mahinery upon the prop
erty can be removed and replaced by
the new.
When every thing shall have been
placed in running order, the shaft,
which has now reached the 350-foot
level, will be continued to the 600-foot
mark before the work OF developing
and blocking out the immense bodies of
copper-sulphide ore opened up in the
drifts on the 300-level, will be attempt
ed.
With this property In full operation
by the first OF May and the resumption
OF work by the White Pine Copper Co.
on the Ruth group at about the same
time, to be followed by extensive de-
yelopments OF the New York & Nevada
Copper Company on their Copper Flat
holdings, that portion OF the district
will witness greater developments and
more actual prod uctlve work than it
has ever known before. And with the
Mckinley Company operating on this
end Of the belt, and the possible re-
sumption Of work on the Chairman,
the entire camp presents brighter
outlook for the coming summer than 1t
has ever seen before.

STREET AND DITCH
CONTRACTS LET.
Bd. Gilbert and Z. Randall the
Successful Bidders.
The Work viii Cost The County
Only Five Hundred Dollars.

In accordance with the advertise
ments In the NEWS last week for re-
ceiving bids on the flling-in of the
Main street in Ely and the digging of a
ditch through town, the County Com
missioners opened the bids and award :
cd the contracts to the lowest competi-
tors last Monday afternoon.
The following were the bids received
for the street work: Eager & Cart
wright, $3.50; AL. Perry 1926, Lewis
Carpenter $500, and Edward Gill
bert, $500. The latter gentleman was
given the contract because OF his being
better equipped to do the work, which
consists of the alling-in, ,leveling up and
graveling of the street from the Bird
lumber yard to Murphy's Office.
The following bids were received on
the ditch work Ed. Gilbert, 5000; e.
Randall 5000; Rube Van Volkenburg,
81. Is per rod Mr.. Randall was given
this contract This work consists of
the digging Of ditch, 2750 feet long,
the dimensions OF the same to be 6 feet
in width across the top, four feet across
the bottom and three feet deep.
Under the contracts the above work
is TO be completed on or before the Bird
OF May. Work upon both projects
was begun Wednesday morning
The County has certainly made
good bargain in the letting OF these
contracts at so low figure, but it is
questionable II the parties who have
undertaken the work will make fnan-
cial success of 1t.

WHY NOT MOVE RIGHT

Gov. Brady Is very properly opposed Co the appointment Of outsiders Co hold office in Alaska. However, until the district shall have been organized so that the people can in some way eS- press themselves as to their choice for the offices, the president will be well nigh compelled Co appoint uon-resi- dents The chief executive ot the ua- tion is not personally acquainted with those in Alaska who might be aSpir- ants for office, and under existing con ditions there is noauthority, represent ing the people, to divide with him the responsibility Of making appointments. Until the district shall have been or ganized into territory, the president must necessarily depend upon the rec ommendatiou Of senators, congressman and others whom he knows, as he has depended iu the past, Co furnish him names Of men for whose conduct in ot- fee they will stand sponsor.
 Gov. Brady Is like some others in Alaska. He has for many years beep elamoring for many things, most Of which are very badly needed, but all of which would naturally follow territor- lal government. lt these people, who spend so much oi their time on their knees begging small fayors Of congress, could only understand that every right they are seeking would come as a uatur- al sequence Co manly demand for ter ritorial government, which has always been recognized as the natural right Of every pioneer American community there would be some chance for Alas kans Co be treated as American men and women. But until they shall awaken Co a realization of that fact, there win always be discou,cut in this district.
