Special Correspondence: Seattle
In the bill that will be introduced In
Congress at the forthcoming session
appropriating S~1,175,000 for the
United States governments partici-
patton at the Alaska Yukon-P Pacific
Exposition in 1909 there will be a
section pledging the management not
to ask for a loan from Uncle Sam to
carry on the work of creating the
fair.
The people behind the exposition
believe they are fully capable OF hold
ing a successful worlds fair without
asking the government for any dona-
tion or any loan. All the manage
ment desires is that Uncle Sam par
ticipate in the same manner as the
states and foreign nations will do by
erecting buildings and Installing there

FEAR THAT BOOKS

of the public library, the reading pub
lie of this city has almost entirely
abandoned the patronage of this for
merly popular public Institution. 1t
has been decided to close down the
book house and thoroughly r~enovate
the interior and fumigate every book
and periodical.
The city authorities ridicule the
story that fear of the spread of spinal
mening It's is the cause of the fumiga-
ton. blu the fact that much publicity
has been given the closing of the great
public library at Portland, Ore, for
fear that it might spread this disease,
has no doubt had it's effect here in
causing people to fear the germs they

WATER IN THE CARSON
RIVER Is SHORT

CARSON CITY, April 1S.-Mill men
and farmers on the Carson river from
Virginia City to Empire are having
trouble over the use of the water in
this stream and the tangle will likely
be adjusted in the courts, as there is
not water enough for both at this
time and neither seems willing to give
way to the other.
The mill men claim that the farm
ers are using far more water than is
necessary to irrigate with and that as
a consequence the mills will have to
close down during the summer.
With the completion of the Hickey
reservoir this trouble will be done
away with.
