Conference

The Methodist Conference which
has been in session at Yerington for
the past week closed yesterday and
the ministers are returning to their
homes. Rev. Don o. COlegrOye who
has had charge of the local church
the past year was reappointed and
will also have charge of the Virginia
City church. Rev. Geo. c. King OF
this city was reappointed Superin-
tendent and Rev. Lee L. Tower, form
erly pastor at Battle Mountain re-
ceived the appointment of conference
evangelist. The latter gentleman
will probably make this city his head
quarters.
The Church in this city has always
received a certain amount of sup
port from the missionery society, but
this year this support was with
drawn and from now the local church
will have to depend upon its own
work.

Will Assess Main. ST Property Prisoners

The City Trustees held short
session last night, the principle bus
ness being the submission of the re-
port OF Engineer Fratt On the street
work and the levying of the assess
ment against the property holders on
the line Of work. The list is not en-
tirely completed and as soon as it is
will be turned over to Clerk Patter-
son who will properly assess the
property and collect the amounts
from the property owners.
This part OF the fork comes under
a recent law passed by the Nevada
Legislature which provides that prop
erty owners can be assessed proper
tionate amounts for the pavement OF
street construction along the line OF
their p poperty. Ten blocks OF street
was constructed on Carson street,
from the north corner of the mint
Carson City daily appeal. [volume] (Carson City, Nev.) 1907-1930, 1907-09-10

to the prison road. From there to
Gardners lane only the center of the
street was graded and the property
owners between the prison road and
that point will only be assessed ac-
cording to the cost of this part OF the
construction.
The total cost has been fixed at
$500 and the owners of property
along the line of improvements will
be assessed on this amount. No rate
has yet been set but it is believed
that 1t will be in the neighborhood
Of one dollar and fifty cents run
ming foot.
Little trouble Viii be had in col
lecting this money as the work done
on the streets shows for itself and to
place money where - - would do more
lasting good than in the manner in
which this $500 was spent would be
an impossibility.
