Commissioners in reply to the COM
plant OF the people Of Ely in regard TO
Tho erection OF a depot in Ely. The
answer is one OF the strongest and best
ever recorded In this state. 1t corer
the case completely.
Briefly, the people Of Ely are trying
TO compel the railroad to erect and
maintain a freight depot in the town OF
Ely, alleging the present depot is tyo
miles from the city. In the answer it is
stated that the present freight depot at
Ely City, where Ely freight is sent, is
Just ] $50 feet from tue corporate line
OF Ely; that Ely never was, never has
been, and never was intended to be the
terminal o. the road; that the terminal
of the Nevada Northern ia the Robinson
district, S.l8 miles from Ely; further,
that when the road inst applied for a

and the road agreed to take a side
street, where the tracks were later laid.
At that time an agreement vas enter II
which stated that d passenger def O.
SHOULD be erected in Ely, but a freight
depot was never expected or intended
to be erected there. this arrangement
being understood by the people; further,
that GO acres are now being used Tor de-
pot and track purposes by Ii railroad,
and it would be impossible to secure
level ground in Ely for such purposes;
further, that suits have now been filed
trying to compel the railroad to o
