Proposed School Laws

Prof. Adams, president of the State
Teachers Association, has requested
that teachers, who attend the institute
at Reno next month, to come prepared to
discuss the following new school laws
and amendments to the present school
laws:
1. A law providing for earlier school
elections-probably in March so that
the new school board could provide for
the necessary tax levies and that they
could have adequate time to secure
teachers.
2. A law authorizing the city school
board to fix the tenure of office of the
City superintendent not to exceed four
years.
3. A law providing for an increase
in the membership of the State Board
of Education by the appointment of two
members school men. ~
a. A law authorizing school boards
to provide teams for the transportation
of children to and from school.
5. A law providing for free text
books to be furnished by the district.
6. An effective law for compulsory
school attendance.
Z. A few notifications touching the
granting of teachers certificates.
8. A law for classifying school dis
tricts for administrative purposes.
8. A law changing the basis of the
apportionment of school moneys so that
the school attendance rather than the
census will determine what each dis
trict is to receive.
10. A state tax to be apportioned
among the city and county high
schools.
Prof. Admams has appointed the
following teachers committee on legis-
lation:

A report was circulated on the streets
Saturday afternoon that the oil well of
the Nevada and Bay State Oil company
on the salt marsh twenty miles west of
Goldfeld had ''come in" with a strong
flow of oil and gas; that the gas had
become ignited and the well was burn
ing fiercely. No confirmation of the
report could be secured, but the red
glare in the sky in the west at night
seemed to lend an air of veracity to the
rumor.-Tonopah Bonanza.
The Bradley Opera House caught fire
i'll the basement about 6 o'clock last
evening. A fire had been started in a
stove close to a wooden partition and the
heat melted the zinc ON the wall and
charred the boards. The fire bell rang
and the fire boys,were on the ground in
quick time and had the fire under con-
troll before any damage of consequence
was done. Mr.. Bradley puts the dam
age at $50, mostly caused by broken
glass. It is fortunate that the fire did
not start late in the night.

CONTACT, A GREAT CAMP

Every mining engineer examining
Contact, Elko county, Nevada is conf
dent Contact will make the worlds
greatest copper camp. From the heavy
investments now being made in Contact
mining properties by mining men of
long experience, it is generally conceded
that Contact will quickly make great
er camp than Ely, Nevada, Bingham,
Utah, and Butte, Montana. Most in
teresting about this opinion, is the pur-
chases in Contact of mining properties
are being made by mining men at
present interested in the previously
mentioned camps of Ely, Bingham and
Butte. What adds more wealth to the
Contact ores, as compared to those of
other copper camps. is the extra values
in silver and some gold
The Oregon Short Line has decided to
begin the immediate construction of a
line from Twin Falls, Idaho, through
Contact, to point on the main line of
the Southern Pacific just west of Cobre.
Not only will this give good outlet for
Contact ores, but will very much aid in
the development of the country around
Contact. This road is being built
principally for the purpose of making
the Montana and Yellowstone Park
traffic several hundred miles nearer the
Pacific Coast by taking this cut off, in
stead of going first to Ogden, Utah, and
to furnish new route for certain trans
continental traffic destined to Nevada
California points, by avoiding the very
much congested route at present through
Ogden.
The new tOwnsite of Contact, which
| will be on this railroad; and the Salmon
River, is owned by the Western Town
site Company, of Salt Lake City, Utah,
of which Frederick T. McGurrin is
president. These townsite lots will
shortly be offered for sale, in limited
number, on most favorable terms, and
parties in Elko, and other points in
Nevada who wish to apply for or pur-
chase one or more of these lots at Con-
tact, should call on or write Frederick
L. McGurrin, or H. w. Hammond,
Commercial Hotel, Elko, Nevada be-
tween now and December 10, 1908.
There is not any raason why these
lots at Contact, at $4,000 each, in easy
payments, should not make as com
paratiVe fortune for the owners as was
experienced in the other Nevada min
ing camps like Goldtield, Tonopah and
Ely. The life of q copper camp is much
longer than either gold silver or lead,
as millions of dollars must be invested
before u single dollar in dividends can
be taken ont of the place
