CLEANUP DAY" NEXT TUESDAY.
F. G. Biddleman thought one of the
most important things was the clean
ing up of the town and moved that
committee Of three be appointed to
arrange for a day to be so used.
/ After considerable discussion, a mot
ion, made by Geo. Wood, was carried
that next Tuesday afternoon be set
aside as a cleanup day and the
Board Of Directors arrange for al
hands to turn out and put the towG
in a good sanitary CONDITION. It was
suggested that the day be closed with
dance, which may be if a suitable
place can be secured. Announce
ment will be made later.
Upon motion the chair appointed
the following committees: on adver-
tising. Webb, De Cheney and Wood.
To solicit further membership, Safer
and Goodin. To see about building
and repairing roads and streets
Messrs. Anker, Wolf and Storms.
The charter will remain open for
two weeks and now is the time for
the business men of Loveiockt to put
their shoulder to the wheel and make
long pull and a strong pull for
Greater Lovelock.'
The Club will meet in the school
house every Monday night at 8 o..
clock. until Home of their own can

Water Supply for Mazuma.

The water flowing in Burnt Canyon
from the strong springs near its head
will be piped to Mazuma for domestic
and general purposes and to supply
stamp mills with necessary water for
batteries. John Harnan, the million
aire mine owner, is back of the
proposition and has ordered work be-
gun Immediately on the line. Har-
nan is slow to promise, but sure to
perform.
The Herald says that the project
is to pipe water from Burnt Canyon,
distance of four miles. The spring
there is very strong and supplies a
flow about five times as great as the
Seven Troughs springs. Joseph Hill
of Lovelock took steps early in the
spring to acquire title to the Burnt
Canyon water. He has conveyed his
title to the Mazuma Townsit.. and
Wa!er company John Harnan Of
this company, it is stated on the best
authority. has instructed j. K. Bis
chof. the manager, to Immediately be-
gin the work of piping all the water
from Burnt Canyon to Mazuma. MIR.
Bisehof has ascertained where he can
get the necessary pipe for immediate
delivery. and he will at once put a
force of men to work on the UNDER
taking.

upon which that camp ia situated,
and the transcripts of the case are
now before the Commissioner of the
General Land Office for his ruling.
1t is held by the Department that
so-called placer locations when used
for townsite purposes wholly. occupy
relatively the same legal status as
do the so-called homestead entries
upon land more valuable for timber
than for agricultural purposes. 1t
will be remembered that inves.iga-
tions put in motion bv the govern.
ment secret service agents, in the
northwest, sufficed to establish pre-
cedents for those who would defraud
the government by illegal filings.
1t is now highly probable that the
story printed exclusively in that pap
er some months ago regarding illegal
townsites. will be fully corroborated
soon by actual contest suits, in which
the government will be the party of
the first part against several town
sites in that county.
The method of establishing town
sites on government lands is well de-
fined BY the law created for that pur-
pose, but has been disregarded by the
townsite promoters of this state, who
saw larger margin of profit for op-
GRAFTON via the m neral location route.

pleted midst great enthusiasm and
With spirit of determined effort to

The meeting was held in the school
house and was attended by goodly
representation of the business and
professional men of town. After be-
ing called to order by the chairman,
the object of permanent organization
was announced and the report of the
Committee on by laws was called for.
As chairman of this committee,
Mr.. Geo Wood reported the following
brief bylaws; which were adopted by
sections after short discussion of
each:

tary Condition.
Will Have Merchants and Business
Houses Give Half Holiday and
put All Hands at Cleaning
up Streets and Alleys.

Cleanliness is next to Goodness"
is an old saying but none the less
true. However, cleanliness is a most
essential element to healthy and
prosperous town. II the streets and
alleys, especially, of town are in
filthy ard dirty condition the health
and general welfare of the town
must of necessity be impaired.
Realizing the great need of clean
er streets and alleys for Lovelock,
the Commercial club voted that next
Tuesday afternoon. Aug. 9th be set
aside for Cleanup" day. That the
Board of Directors interview the
merchants and get them to join forces
that day to clean up about their pre-
misses, both to the front and rear
That teams be provided to haul The
garbage thus collected out of town,
and that from now on the piling of
filth and garbage in the streets or
alleys be stopped.
This is one of the first reform
movements of the Club and the sug-
gestion was met with loud applause
and the motion carried with unani-
nous vote.
So let every business house join in
this work. 1t is a wonder that there
is not more sickness and disease in
Lovelock, considering the sanitary
conditions prevailing in some of the
alleys and about the out houses in
