PEOPLE TIRED
OF AGITATION
General Satisfaction Expressed at
the Prospective Settlement
OF Water Question

When the compromise effected by
the Citizen s Committee with the Ely
Water Company over the water fran
chise for the town was discussed yes
terday general satisfaction was ex-
pressed at the near approach to an
understanding that will end the agita-
ton of the past two weeks.
Business men generally commended
the members of the committee repre-
senting their interests for coming to an
understanding without unnecessarily
prolonging the uncertainty Of the
situation.
1t was frankly admitted that the
settlement of the terms of the fran
chise and the commencement of work
upon the permanent water system will
have a good effect upon business gen
orally, which has suffered because of
the agitation and the sensational re-
ports of happenings in Ely which have
been sent to outside newspapers.
The recent agitation had a dampen-
ing effect upon real estate transac-
tions 1t is believed that when the
gangs of workmen commence digging
the trenches for the water system,
real estate prices, which have been
steadily on the increase, will leap at
least 25 per cent.

Ice Cutting Begins Thursday

Ice cutting on Argus Lake will begin
on Thursday on large scale. K. c.
Davis, of the Argus Lake Ice Company,
said yesterday that there has been ice
cutting in a small way for some time
past, the company sending daily four
horse team into town with ice to sup
ply the present demand, which he said
is already sufficient to use up all that
is brought in.
All the buildings at the lake have
been completed. Mr.. Davis said that
after the ice house is filled, the cutters
will continue at work, piling ice upon
the lake shore. These piles will be
covered with straw and the ice stored
in this manner will be used in the be-
ginning of the season. The storage
house will not be drawn upon until hot
weather.
James Cazier, chief deputy of
Sheriff A. C. House, has resigned his
position. Mr.. Cazier possessed all the
mental and physical requirements that
go toward making an ideal peace Of
ficer- intelligence, cool head and bodily
strength-but the office, so far as
pecuniary. returns are concerned,
wasn't up to Cazier's standard, so he
cult.

PROSPE:CTORS
AGAIN IN Hills
Departure Of Snow Causes Fresh
Scattering Out in Search of
"Open GrOnud''

Now that the hills are no longer I'M
passable, owning to the thawing of the
heavy snow, there has been a new
rush for mining claims in all directions
from Ely.
Louis Smith, formerly with Graham S,
who has returned from prospecting
trip west of town, says that ground
has been taken up all the way to Rob
inson summit and for miles on both
sides of Robinson canyon. He found
vacant ground near Deep Well, north
of Keystone, in tie vicinity cf the
properties of the Pittsburg- g-Ely Com
pany, but said that il was a strip of
territory that had been overlook, as
the ground for miles rorth and west of
the open spot he discovered was liter
ally plastered with location notices.
Prospectors have also taken up a
vast area south of Ely. Some of these
have returned with pieces OF copper
and lead ore taken from their claims.
Other fortune hunters have crossed
Steptoe Valley TO take up ground in the
mountains east of Ely.
There is no doubt that with the com
ing season the mineral district sur
rounding Ely will be prospected by a
multitude of prospectors with the
thoroughness of raking with a fine
toothed comb.
