legal right to grant away the
rights of the citizens Of town

In the granting Of franchises the
Board does not know or does not

Of a town wherein the franchise
is to become operative have, at
least, a moral right to be heard
on the question. Two franchises
have been granted by the Com

Ely, and in neither case were
the citizens Of the town given
an opportunity to be heard. In
one instance q member Of the
Board interviewed some Of the
property owners along Aultman

acted upon the day the notice

REDUCE TIE INSURANCE RATES.

Where oar merchants and
home-oWuers, have heretofore
paid A. hieh as 10 per cent in
surance risks, We are now prob
ably in fair way to have the
sane risks written at 3 per cent.
ANY merchant IS willing to pay
this latter risk and should imme-
diataly make tie acquaintance
Of some insurance broker. How
often are We told Of some bust
ness career, blighted and often
ruined beyond repair, after the
dread ravages of fire have laid
the town low. 1t is OF daily oc-
curfence 80 read Of the work o-
this daily menace, especially in
mining camps. We venture t.
say, few mining camps i'll the
state Of Nevada, today, have
such a perfect system for fire
protection as Ely will have when
all the street mains are
laid in place. This should be an
encouragement to outside in
investors who have in view the
erection of substantial buildings
in Our town. Everyone breathes
easier, and we'll they might.
The present insurance rates
are entirely too high in view Of
the excellent facilities we now
have for fighting fire, and q con-
certed effort should be made at
once for a reduction.
