1t is pleasing to note that the
National Congress, after many
years of neglect, has seen fit to
reimburse Nevada citizens who
furnished supplies to volunteers
under Captain Stewart in 1860
that they might assist in quell-
ing an Indian uprising. Many
of those to whom money was
due have long since joined the
silent majority, but to them who
are now living it will be al just
reward and a boon in the declin-
ing years of their lives.

OUR WATER SYSTEM.

The time is fast approaching,
if it is not already at hand, when
the citizens of Fallon must take
steps. towards improving the
present water system of the
town. Action regarding this
important matter should be in
stituted at once. 1t would be
the height of folly to wait until
such time when death from ty-
phoid fever shall have shown
the necessity of such movement.
The ways and means of accom-
plishing an improvement are
mary, but possibly the best way
would be for our citizens to con-
tribute monthly such an amount
as would pay the expenses of
maintaining a town system. A
well should be bored at such a
distance from the town as would
insure its waters freedom from
the seepage of the outhouses.
Here we might suggest, paren-
t~hetically, that a liberal supply
of chloride of lime would not be
amiss and might be the means
of preventing much sickness that
is certain to follow during the
coming months if the necessary
precautions are not taken.
And, again, the town at the
present time would be at the
mercy of a fire. There is no pos
sible way of a~verting a confa-
grafton should a blaze start at
the upper end of Main street.
A tank of many gallons capacity
should be erected. a hose cart
furnished and a volunteer fire
department organized. Money
spent in this way is proftably
invested and should meet with
the hearty approval of the citi-
zens generally.

A NEEDED

A petition, numerously signed,
will be presented to the Board
of County Commissioners at
their next meeting asking that
the route of the county road
leading from Fallon to the rail-
road be changed so as to make
the distance much shorter. As
the road runs at the present
time one is compelled to travel a
considerable distance in a zig-zag
route before any Roadway is
made. The change proposes
that the road shall run in a d.
rect line from the p~ostofice to
the Thelan ranch. 1t would ap-
pear that the change would he
of much benefit to the travelling
public and save much time on
the road.

TO SECURE H~OMESTEADS.
Rules Which Govern Entries on
the New Canal.

Inc following lttter mas Deen receiveu
by Attorney Charles L. Knox, and it
will be well for those contemplating
taking up lands on the route of the new
canal to read the same carefully:
"Your letter of recent date to the
Honorable, the Secretary of the Interior,
has been referred to me for reply. With
it you transmit a let er from c. l..
Knox, OF Reno. Nevada, asking for a
list of the lands withdrawn from entry
under the Reclamation Law Of June II,
1902, and also asking whether these
lands can be located upon by intending
settlers.
Under the terms of the law, a copy
of which is enclosed herewith, the Sec
rotary Of the Interior is authorized to
withdraw lands, pending survey and
examination. The lands can be entered
under the Homestead Act only, subject
to certain restrictions as to payment of
cost of water to be used in reclamation,
size Of entry, etc. II has been ruled
under the wording OF the law that
homestead entrymen can make a filing
upon 100 acres, but that later this
amount can be cut down to 40 or more
acres, according TO the discretion Of the
Secretary.
In the case of Nevada large areas of
of land have been withdrawn, surveys
and examinations instituted, the gen.
eral feasibility of the projects ascer-
tanned, and certain details worked out.
Il has not, however, been considered
wise to delay construction until every
detail has been thoroughly ascertained,
and hence what may be termed a pre-
liminary or partial contract has been let
for the feeder canal from the Truckee
River to the Lower Carson reservoir,
work upon which is now progressing.
The surveys and examinations have
not yet progressed to q point where it is
possible to ascertain the actual lands 10
be irrigated or the size Of the home
steads. When this Is known the fact
will be made public and entry will be
invited. Pending the determination of
these facts, homestead entrymen can
make entries subject tc the provisions OF
the laws and TO the charges which the
Secretary may make at a later date.
That is to say, . man may enter upon
100 acres, bnt when the plans are finally
made this may be. reduced TO 40 acres.
Before title can be secured he must, of
course, pay for the water and comply
with other requirements not yet stated.
1t is a matter Of regret that 1t is inn
possible not to make all of the plans
complete Of the outset, but we are con-
fronted with two alternatives-one of
delaying work indefinitely, the other of
beginning it in part and determining
details later N. 1t is impossible to pre-
vent people making homestead entries
at their own risk, but II they wish to
do SO we can only warn them they are
taking certain risks. Whether these
homestead entrymen can ultimately
obtain title or not cannot be decided
until further progress is made.
Very respectfully,
II. G. RIZER,
Acting Director.

H BANNER COUNTY.

In one instance at least Chur-
chill is the banner county of the
State and that is in the belief of
public ownership of public utili-
ties. The telephone system, ex-
tending from one end of the
county to the other, is the prop
erty of the taxpayers and the
scheme works admirably. If the
time ever comes when the public
ownership of other utilities shall
be deemed expedient, the tele-
phone system will be ample
proof of it's efficiency and Chur-
chill county shall have set an
example that might profitably
be followed by other counties
in this State.

A Taste For Jewels.

precious stones had disappeared from
his stock and at once reported the mat
ter to NJ. Raynaud, commissioner Of po'
lice.
On the visit of the latter to the
shop, in order to conduct an inquiry,
he was at once struck by the chatter
ing Of a parrot, which was moving
freely around the shop, and it occurred
to him that the parrot might be the
thief. He accordingly communicated
his suspicious to the jeweler, and the
latter, while stoutly maintaining the IN

emetic administered. The result was
that the parrot disgorged over 920o

Don't indulge in personalities. Ihey

barrasses the listener, and you are sure
to regret it.
Don't talk Of the cost Of things. 1t

ness and may be embarrassing to the
poor.
Don't tell your personal interests,
occupations, hopes or aspirations. NO
body wants to hear them, and you give
your dignity a mortal stab.
Don't discuss children. If you have
any the chances are you are boring
those who have not. If you have none,

It was only the smallest mistake that
led an impassioned preacher to warn
his congregation that unless they re.
pented they would be relegated to "a

and the neither world being almost
identical. In like manner the story
of Lazarus, who fell sick, was told to

was made to declare that Lazarus en-
