Fight At Hazen.

A fstic combat of more than
special interest occurred at Haz-
en- last Saturday afternoon
when an alteration between
Chris tensen, of the Utah Con
struc ton Combany and a team
ster resulted in blows. over an
alleged difference IN the account
of the teamster of 81 60. Coal,
brick bats and clubs were invok
ed to help demonstrate physical
superiority, and finally Christen-
tensen closed the argument by
pulling an automatic, only to
have it opened again by n friend
OF the team ster, who it is said
disarned the infuriated man.
An arrest or two was made bV
Deputy Sheriff Allen, but none
were followed by prosecution.

Bank Will Change.

The solid financial institution
that has done business in this
city since January 1st of this
year as the X. L. Douglass bank
will soon be merged into 3 Nat
ional bank with paid up cap
ital of 100000. The move
has been deemed advisable for
business reasons.
Some time ago George Ernst
acquired substantial holdings in
the concern, and as the business
now stands it is owned by he
and Mr.. Douglass, both gentle
men having a financial standing
that is not confined to the State
of Nevada. 1t is their purpose
to interest other local capital,
and place on the market for sale
a limited amount of stock, and
as soon as this and a few other
details can be accomplished the
organization and capitalization
will be effected. In preparing
for a larger business, the bank
management has an eye to the
future, as at the present time,
the local banking field presents
many difficulties, not encounter
ed in an older settled community.
However, the future of Fallon
and its tributary country is un-
questioned, and the gentlemen
now owning the local bank show
excellent judgment in equipping
Their institution for business
that is bound to come.

vested in them by an act of the
last legislature, ordered the issu-
ance of ten bonds of $500 each,
to run for a period of not long
er than ten years. and will dur
ing their life draw interest at
the rate of six per cent per an
nun.
This step was deemed neces-
sary in view of the fact that
present Jail quarters are unsafe
for the keeping ofdesperate char
acters. and a repetition of the
Lawrence affair will be prevent.
ed by the building of stronger
jail. Plans and specification.
for the new Jail will be received
by the commissioners at their
regular meeting in July

will be rushed to completion.

A BIG EN-
TERPRISE.
Work Now In Progress
On Power House.

One of Uncle Sans benefac.
tions that holds much in store
for this section is the electrical
generati ting power house to be
built on the main canal six miles
west of Fallon, for which the ex.
cavat ting work is finished. The
building proper is to be 1884,
feet bv 40 feet in dimensions and
some thing of the magnitude oil
the enterprise can be CLEANED
from the fact that the construc-
ton work to be done
by the San Francisco
Cons truction Company on the
found a ations, intake, etc, indie
pendent of the building and ma
chinery, will cost approximate
" $4,000.
At the point where the power
house is to be built, the waters
of the main canal drop dis
tance of 26 feet. As the flow is
estim ated by the government
engineers to be 1850 cubic feet
of w a ter per second, it is figured
that 5000 horsepower can be
developed by the modern meth
ods that will be installed.
This power will find its way
over a system of conduits that
will cover large area OF
coun try, and will be utilized
mainly for the operation oil
pun IDS that will make possible
the cultivation OF lands too
high to be reached by the gravi-
tv system. In many cases tracts
of land that are now considered
wort HESS will be made produc-
tive. and as good or better than
much so called bottom land.
1t is a plan of the reclamation
auth critics that this plant shall
beco me "A part of the wonderful
Carson sink irrigation system,
which under the provisions of
the reclamation act will revert
to the settlers when the govern.
ment has been reimbursed for
the actual cost of construction,
and the ultimate good that Il
will accomplish is beyond COM
puta ton.

Commissioners Order
Special Election. /

The county commissioners
made an order at their meeting
last Monday for the purpose of
calling special election to be
held tuesday, July 18th. to de-
termine the sen ntiment of the cleo
tors of Churchill county in re-
gard to erecting county high
SchoO 81 building in this city to
cost not more than $4,000.
The bill bearing upon the sub
iect ~as passed at the last state
legislature, AMI provides that
bonds for a SUN not to exceed
$1,000 be issued. if the ques-
ton is affirmed by a majority of
the electors of the county. and
that they shall run for period
of not longer than twenty years
from the first day of next Janu-
ary and draw not more than six
per cent interest.
The action of the Commission
ers was base | upDlap.tition
en- 5raelng S5 names, that repre-
sented IN / orlty of the proper
ty interests of the county. And
the petitioners were very much
in earnest in the matter as evi-
denced by the number present
when the matter came up for
consideration. In arguing the
matter before the board, Mer-
chant |. H. Kent put the matter
III very terse light, when he
explained that of the sum of
$4,000. which will be the
mount voted upon, only S4.-
go will be met by the private
interests of the county, as the
Southern Pacific X abroad Com
pany holds 90 per cent of the
assessable property in Churchill
county.
The location and character of
the building, if voted. will he left
To the county high school board
which will be composed of the
commissioners and school super
intenlent. However. Hon. W.

fers 10 donate a slightly block of
land situated IN his tract west

In talking over the question
with conservative interests. the
~ indard learns that $lO. 600 il
generally deemed a very modest
sum To be used in building aud
eqipping n county high school
building, and some are of the
opinion that IL is n far too sma.l

Col. Leach. the engineer officer 10

Macktnzle. chief Of engineers, to the fact
that the highway bridge across the PO-
tomac ~ Washington, now in course OF
construction, will probably be completed
by \ ptember lst and that it will be
necessary TO make provision for operat-
Ing the bridge. lie says provision will
be nects-Ary for lighting the structure,
for the appointment OF at least two men
to- operate the draw, for watchmen, etc
de estimates the necessary operating ex-
penses at $4,000 per annum. When
the new highway bridge is completed
ths old Long bridge will be abandoned
and the trolley line now using the latter
bridge will be transferred to the new
bridge. When that is done the PennsyL
ganis X .ilrnad Company will be required
TO remove the old Long bridge, In &C
