AT VALLEYS

Engineer Pratt has returned from
Valley springs, where he completed
a preliminary survey and finds that a
stream fed by springs of the purest
and best mountain water can be found
at a point on the mountain west of
the springs, from whence it can be
piped direct to the springs and made
to answer every purpose desired
First, the water will be dropped
through pipe line 1925 feet in length
and applied to a pelton water wheel
under pressure of 900 feet. This
will generate sufficient power to sup
ply electric lights for the new hotel,
street, cottages, bath, etc
At their power station the water,
after it passes through the wheel will
be collected in a cement cistern of
sufficient capacity to insure surplus
water to operate two lines of hose in
case of fire, under a pressure of 100
feet, and to run a small wheel and
pump to supply the water to the
baths, instead of the gasoline engine,
now doing the work The pipe line
from the eistern will have mains and
fire plugs on the street and also be
distributed throughout the several
buildings, baths, etc. The surplus
water will be used to sprinkle the
roads and lawns and the street, which
has heretofore been as hot as bake
oven, will be kept moist and cool. The
parched hillside in front of the hotel
will be converted into a grassy lawn
and shade trees will be planted with
out delay. In the meantime arbors
covered with hopvines will be substi-
tuted for shade until the trees are
large enough to serve that purpose.
The boiling hot mineral water from
the springs has proven a failure for
irrigation, and the expense of bring
ing mountain water to the premises
has prevented former owners of the
property from installing such works
At the present time the property
has no protection from fire, except
what water could be applied by buck
cts, which would be utteraly made
quate, and the owners are therefore
exposed every moment to loss many
times greater than the cost of install
ling water works.
This is certainly an improvement
needed first and most of all, both for
protection and to provide lawns,
gardens and shade trees while a new
hotel and other buildings are being
erected
The engineers figures will be con-
sidered at the first meeting and doubt
less the plant will be installed as
soon as the material can be put on the
groune.

Oil Engines do Much Good.

The use of oil on the big mountain
engines of the Southern Pacific Com
pany stationed at Sparks, has resulted
in Kidding the Truekee meadows of
thousands of mosquitoes and other in
sects which for years have made the
meadows "A place almost impossible
to live in. This transformation has
taken place III little less than year
When the shops and railroad division
were established at Sparks, the work
men in many instances were compel
led to wear netting over their heads
in order to carry on their work. Now
a mosquito is seldom seen there, and
it is prop esied that within the next
twelve months these pests will be
entirely eradicated.

tion in this state. Our committee was
appointed to investigate conditions in tho

other states will wait until we have had
an opportunity to complete our work.
These insurance companies are per-
fectly solvent and are able TO carry out
every contract they have made or may
make. There is no reason for refusing
TO permit them to continue to do busi-
ness. If Nevada proposes To do one
thing, Missouri another and some other
state still others there will be chaotic con-
dition OF affairs
"Our committee will make the most
thorough investigation possible. and when
we are through we shall make IL our
business to recommend such legislation
as to safeguard the polcyholders and
make the insurance sounder and more
attractive that IL has been before.
IF other states jump In before we can
complete our work or can adopt any legis-
lation. everything will be confusion I'm

the writ should be denied. He claimed
part Of the boards duties. as related in
the petition for the writ, were OF a
judicial nature.

under consideration was 10 provide for the

tlon Of the legislature must have been

Mr. Thurston contended IL was Just the
same as II no caucus was ever had during
the present year in Ward !.
Public policy. Mr.. Thurston declared,
demanded that the criminals who con-
trolled the last caucus be removed from
their positions on the ward committee.
Not only would the party be injured III
there was no second caucus, hut one cor
rupt gang would appoint. or rather desig-
nate, the supervisors on election day.
Mr.. Thurston further argued that the
present case was the same as a tie where
a majority OF a ward committee was not
elected or a candidate for an elective Of
fee failed TO get a majority. In such
cases another caucus could be held.
II was shown that the present ward
committee would hold over and do great

HE MAY NOT
CANCEL
LICENSE !; /

New York. Oct. civilian A. Frick,
superintendent in this city of the Cen
trail Union Life Insurance company OF
Cincinnati, expressed doubt yesterday
that Insurance Superintendent vandiver
OF Missouri would be able TO make good
his threat to cancel the license OF the
New York Life Insurance company. to
do business In that state. unless President
John A. Mccall resigned and the funds
used for political campaign contributions
were replaced.
For two successive terms Mr.. Frick was
insurance commissioner OF Wisconsin. He
said.
IT don't see how the state OF Missouri
can arbitrarily revoke the license of the
New York Life company TO do business
on any such grounds that are mentioned
In the letter written by Superintendent
Vandiver to President Mccall. No in
surance commissioner has any such right.
He can investigate the affairs of COM
pany doing business in his state but only
II such examination should disclose gross
mismanagement can he order a reorgan-
ization or decide that the company must
do no further business in his state"
Mr. Frick told how at the annual ses-
sion OF the insurance commissioners ac-
ton was taken TO investigate some OF the
larger companies by committee COM
posed Of the commissioners from Wiscon-
sin. Minnesota. Missouri, Ohio. Michigan
and New York
"Mr. Mccall at that time told us all
about the campaign contributions he had
made. adding that he thought II in-the
interest OF the polcyholders. Nobody
took issue with him. lie knew also that
Robert II. McCurdy had charge OF the
foreign business OF the Mutual and that
he was getting an extra large commits
sion on It,"
