Bill to Provide for County Hos
pital introduced in
Legislature

Hon. Peter Anker, Assembyman from
Lovelock, representing this county, has
introduced a bill, A. b. No 81, in the
lower house, providing for the county Of
Humboldt TO issue bonds in the sum Of
$4,000 for the purpose of building hos
locate the hospital. The Silver State as
sumes it is Mr.. Anker's idea to purchase
a tract of land that viii produce vege-
tables and such and in that way make
the institution partially selfsustaining.
II will be the purpose of the Silver State
to talk with taxpayers and give the SUBJ
ject attention that will enable US to ex-
press an intelligent opinion on the very
important subject. The Silver State Is
inclined to think the bill not explic.
enough 1t provides for the issuance of
bonds, but it does not say where the hos
pital shall be located. Neither does II
make any provision for disposing of the
present hospital building and grounds.
Where and how would the hospital be To-
Gated?
