Wills Brougher is a good road advo-
cate and means what he says. In talk
ing of CarsOn's roads a few days ago.
he stated that they were not what
they should be: that improvements
should be made in them and that he
was willing to 60 his share In front
Of the Arlington he had the road
5craped during the wet weather aud
while it did soime good, yet the road
is almost worn down again and needs
another dose of the same kind
Mr.. Brougher stated that he would
meet the city half way, If the city
would round Off the one block of ROAD
in front CT the Arlington, and put a
proper foundation under it, he will oil
that piece OF ground at his own ex-
pense. An oiled road is the best that
has SO far been found. 1t everlastingly
kills the dust and the rains have it'll >
effect upon it. But there must be a pro-
per foundation under it before it is
laid with oil. In case the city or county
will take up the matter with him, there
is a chance to see. the oil experiment
tried to a finish. Two billings will he
given the road and that will demon
strate the value of the plan 1t has
been successful in a hundred Califor-
MIA towns, and Carson has the best
io1
condition. 1t is worth tht try out anil

BETTER WAKE UP.
Time for Action to Hold Carson Gain
ed ADVANTAGES.

A few days ago the appeal printed
an article from tie Salt Lake papers
to the effect that "a attempt T.u.3
be made to have the c. 6 c. railroad
enter a cutoff near the Indian reser-
walton and leave Carson and the local
road of the map This is simply the
work of the wide awake Sale Lake
people, and that Is where they shine.
OF course they never may be any
thing done in the matter md the pro
liabilities are that the Scutilern Pa
cific will look toward t1i5 END before
cutting us OF. but at the same time
it is time that Carson began to res
lie that there are ether toms cn
earth nd that they are cut after ev-
cry dollar that is floating in the tide
of trade.
Carson, with tho trade that nCw
comes from Tcropah ard the now
road, can lock forward to son,e pros
perity, but On the other hand. win
the new avenue Of dollars cut off. it
means financial blow that will be
hard to counter balance.
Suppose that the trade that ROW
goes over the V. & T. were shut of
The old pokey days would return and
that road would be compelled to cut
down expenses. which means 4 Ii
rect injury to this city. And on the
other hand, the many people who come
in from Tonopah to this city would 50
out the other way. 1t don't sound nice
but facts seldom have a ring Of pleas
ure.
The thing for this city to dc is u
properly organize. start uD CONNIE
cial club. a chamber Of commerce,
or any cid thing that Will wake up
the property holders Let them be N
a position when such matters arise
to be able to combat them. At the
present time the State Capitol might
Sc moved, and there is nc combined
action of cur citizens to SOY. "Ney]
to such proposition.
Carson can raise enough money to
carry out the best Carnival the State
has ever shown. but she does not
seem to have the force to organize
for permanent betterment. Reno. on
the other hand has her foces, ard
they will fight any project that takes
ten cent piece from the town. When
the problem CT cutting them out Of
direct communication with TOnopan
comes up, it is safe to say that pro-
test will be made by her organized
citizens. Carson's two newspapers VIII
set up a howl at such an outrage but
the subscribers viii sit quietly at
home and talk the matter over.
Cities are built by the combination
OF wealth and energy. No city ever
prospered just because she was like
Topsy, and 'growed,' but on the 81
her hand, every thriving and 60 ahead
city on this coast has come to its ma
turity and standard by the efforts 81
the property holders and the peOp'e
who expect to live and die in tbs
place they call home. If people do not
get in and act for themselves. it vii
be only a matter Of time until some
such calamity overtakes the place
and instead of going ahead, as is now
promised, there will be such a lu.
in trade that some Of us will hav,
to take to the bankrupt court

the irrigation act, fully established
