The stockholders and directors

evening and established the fol-

for 16-candle power light in
the following sums: Residence.
80 cents per month; store, 10
cents per month; saloons, 81

been furnished for several days
and meets with the approval of
all Any doubt that the enter
prise would be success has
been dissipated by the excellent
service furnished.
At the present time service is
furnished until one p. m, but 1t
is likely that it will be increased
to an all-night service soon.
Some have subscribed for stock
for which they refuse to pay and
the stock holders decided to put

Work on Cnt-Off Delayed

Work on the Hazen cutoff,
which according to the contracts
let should be completed on or
about July LIST, will not be fin
ished on schedule time, but ac-
cording to reports will be de-
layed until about the middle of
August before all excavating and
grading work is completed.
However, the extra work is said
to be drainage, and other work
that will not interfere with the
laying of ties and rails. The lat
ter will be finished some time
during the month of August ac-
cording to the reports, and the
through train schedule to Tono-
pah, planned for that time is
an assured fact. 1t is
said that it has been exceedingly
hard for the working forces to
be maintained to the maximum
size for the reason that working
men are scarce in these p arts.

Hazenites Violate the Law.

Complaints were entered this
week by prominent residents of
Hazen against the main tanning
of so-called barmaids. 1t is al
legged that two or three of the
keepers OF saloons are doing this
in direct variance TO the state
law which provides that no wo-
man can be q regular habitee
of a saloon situated on the main
street or thoroughfare of any
town or village. They must be
on a back street, and when they
are regular habitees of a joint
situated off the main thorough
fare. and are connected in any
way with the conduct of sa-
loon the place OF business is sub
lect to additional license of $500
per quarter. 1t is likely that
formal complaints will be pre-
Sented to the county commission
erS at their next regular meet
ing.

This morning an insane man
whose name we have been un-
able to Learn, was taken in Gust
ody at Haztn. He first at
tracted attention by stripping
himself of all his clothes and
making a dash up the railroad
track from the depot. He claims
to have been lately employed on
the government works. and is
confined in the Hazen Jail pend
ing examination.
About sixty men were brought
into Hazen today by the rail
road company. They formed
the vanguard of the forces who
will lay the rails and ties for the
cutoff. Construction work will
be commenced next Monday.

whole nation, when the first
pulse throbs ofthe heart of what
must become one of the greatest
industrial enterprises of the west
were set in motion by the turn
ing of the water from it's natural
course, over which it has found
its way for ages, on to the des-
ert lands where horned toad has
We'd with the viper for supremacy
for perhaps thousands of years.
1t is thus ted that
nature provided most kindly for
this vast arid section, cofnpris-
ing 100000 acres, that once
formed the bed of the ancient
lake, LaHontaine, but is now a
rich alluvial deposit soil. produc-
tive of nearly every form of plant
life known to man. In destroy
ing the body of water by means
of the elements who can gainsay
but that nature had planned for
the very events that are now
transpiring. With the Sierras
TO our west, with its abundance
of citing SHOWS, now utilized
for the first time, the character
of the soil is again changed to
remain until process far more
radical than that which trans
formed the ancient lake to a des-
ert expanse shall have occurred.
Such an exigencv is far too prob
lamatical. At present we have
only to deal with the facts, for
they are potent and concur with
our welfare as far as the mind
of man can reach.
The special train consisting of
ten cars, conveying the irriga-
tion committees of both houses,
officials of the reclamation ser
vice, the Nevada congressional
delegation, Governor Pardee, of
California, and other prominent
men representing every state on
the Pacific slope, arrived at Haz.
en- today at l p. IN. In addition to
the regular party, comprising
forty people, there were fifty or
more prominent Nevadans along
including all the state officials,
with the exception of Governor
Sparks. who is absent from the
state. Even Sam Z. Davis was
there. the irrepressible Sam,
with his old time effulgence for
which he is so Justly noted.
After a few minutes stay in
Hazen, during which time lunch
was enjoyed the various parties
were made up. and those most
prominently connected with the
irrigation question made their
way accompanied by number
of Churchill comfy people, to
the diverting dam on the Burt
on ranch II miles west of town,
where about $50 people from all
sections of the county had as
sembled for the occasion.
Prominent Churchill county
residents in attendance were
Lieuten ant Governor Lem A Allen.
State Senator W. w. Williams,
County Recorder G.. w. Likes
and many others.
After a short inspection of the
dam, during which time the diff
lerent committees made them
selves agreeable with the locali-
ties, speeches were asked for and

expressed themselves as being
highly pleased with the work
com pleted and in progress, and
much praise was bestowed upon
the engineers in charge of the
work.
Great surprise was evinced at
the favorable climatic and local
conditions with which the Car
son Sink section is blessed.
Congressman Mondell stated
that in his opinion our project
wou d be the banner project of
its size in the United States for
reasons stated.
The diverting dam came in for
its share of praise, and as the
congressional committees
stood on its highest
point. surrounded by many of
the prominent old settlers, who
are responsible for the present
prosperous conditions, the oc-
casion was most impressive
one. Here it is that the vast
volume of water, formed by the
combined flows of the Truckee
and Carson rivers will be raised
in its course 4 feet and diverted
onto the many thousands of ac-
res of high lands, where it will
be utilized.
1t is but just and proper that
the formal opening of the Carson
Sink irrigation enterprise should
be made a notable event, for II
is che most significant of all the
events that have transpired in
our recent history. 1t is well
that the occasion was graced by
officials and citizens of local
prominence; by citizens of tribu-
tary sections and adjoining
states, whose interests in the
general outcome are as great as
our own, and finally by men con-
spicuouslv identified with our
national government and direct
lv concerned IN the problem
which it has here essaved to
solve.
The event is significant, not
alone iii its physical manifesto
tions, in the triumphant achiev-
ments of labors not half done,
but it is doubly gratifying as
showing the sentiment of the
present national administration
as regards the reclama ton of
the arid lands of this and other
states forming the great arid
west. 1t shows conclusivelv
that work will be plyed with as
siduity until the sage brush shall
give way to the forage plant,
and the san dun shall be svnono-
nous with agriculture and hor-
ticulture.
1t means homes for us and for
our friends, homes that must in
crease as time goes on until the
monument thus reared shall be
an indestructible monument to
the wisdom and benefcence of a
far-seeing national government.
Therefore we repeat, the occa-
sion should be remembered bv
all with mingled feelings of pride
and exultatiOn, for in years 10
come it must be recognized as
one of the greatest industrial ac-
complishments of this or any
other age.

CONGRESSIONAL COMMITTEE HERE
Visit Carson Sink Irrigation Enterprise Today and Favoraby
Surprised at Our Resources.

OOngreSSman MOndell, OF wy
oming, the chairman of the con-
gressional committee on irriga-
tion responded with few we'll
chosen remarks, that impressed
all present with their practical
bilitv. outlining in as short. a
time possih the present and
future Lians of the admins
tration as regards the reclama-
ton work in the arid west. In
the course of his remarks he
stated that a few years more
would see the reclamation of
millions of acres of land hitherto
deemed worthless.
He stated that he hoped that
all doubt regarding the ability
of the government to build irri-
cation systems faster and bet
ter than private corpora tons
would be forever dispelled by
the testimonial already erected
in this grand valley. That the
government had taken an es-
pecial interest in the Carson
Sink project, believing it to en-
body all the essentials of a sec
ton eminently an agricultural
section. That in the not far
distant future the howl of the
coyote shall be supplanted with
the laughter of children, and tie
ploughshare shall be instru-
mental iii contributing a vast
store of wealth to mankind. He
laid especial stress upon the fact
that although the government
would finish the partially com
pleted project here and many
others still in the embryo, the
ultimate success of all must de-
pend upon the people who shall
attempt with their work and
the water already furnished to
reclaim them, and during the
course of his remarks, paid the
women n high compliment, stat
ing that without them, God
bless them. this or no other
country could be exploited
At the conclusion of his talk,
former Congressman w. E.
Smvt The, of Southern California,
was called upon for a speech,
and responded in a most elo-
quent manner He precluded
his remarks with the statement
that as all perhaps knew the
third anniversary of the passage
of the reclamation act, was also
the anniversary of the battle of
Bunker Hill, and that although
the Bunker Hill anniversary was
most memorable occasion, the
reclamation anniversary was
just as an important a date, and
that in years to come the fruits
of the act, which it is sought to
commemorate must command
the significance that do those of
the battle of Bunker Hill
He gave a short digest of the
plans leading up to the adop-
tion of the irrigation work, and
stated that in his opinion, Uncle
Sam was the coming man to
build the irrigation systems of
the west.
Senator NeWlandS was called
upon for few remarks, but the
party was pressed for time, and
were forced to cut their stay at
the dam short, that they might
catch the train and return to
Reno, where an elaborate an

ter for fifty thousand dollara dam
ages. Morrison was not worth
fifty cents, no not if he had lived
until Methuselah was youngster
compared with him. Morrison
killed three or four people. His
administrator may claim fifty
thousand dollars as the price of
Morrison's worthless life, but
while he was living that murderer
did not deem the life of a good
and Industrious young man worth
ten cents. While the manner of
putting Morrison out of the way
Is not to be commended, it a good
thing for the community, and
good thing for his Own family
that there is three feet of good
American soil between the body
of that murderer and daylight.
The county of Lancaster should
not have to pay one cent for the
life of Morrison, But there will
be found somewhere lot of work
on-sharo lawyers who will take
the case for what there is in it. =
