l am here to say this. that the railroads Sener-

the movement which led to the new interstate
commerce law and rate bill was that the rail-
roads of the country were brought again within
the lines of the law.
The people awakening; they are deter

effect of the Interstate commerce law-tO give
publicity to everything that is done on the rail-
roads. 1 am not denOuncing railroad men for
what has occurred in the past. They have often
been visited by blackmail and strikes, to use a
technical expression, and they have gone into
the legislatures to prevent that blacknail, and

The Goldfield news. [volume] (Goldfield, Nev.) 1904-1911, 1908-05-30
GoIdfeld, New, May IS, 1908.

Goldfeld, New, May 2s, lsoe.
To the Public:
The Goldfeld chamber of commerce
which in this instance means the citi-
zens-assisted by the county, are ar
ranging for the immediate construction
of a FIRE house for Goldfeld. We are
advised by legal authority that under
the law as il exists the county has no
power either TO call an election for, OF
to issue bonds for this purpose, nor
even to draw on the general fund for
same. And we are further assured that
the fund which could be used is already
overdrawn for purposes of road con
struction, and. in fact is in debt. TINS
means that if Goldfeld needs a fire
bouse. land the need is most urgent),
the public will have to be generous to
itself, which it doubtless will be, as II
is a public necessity of the first i'm
p%ortance.
The present apology for fire quarters
is absurdly inadequate. Even a siight
extension of the shack to protect thou
sands of dollars worth of new appar-
atus has been enjoined by claimants to
the ground. The fine new hose wagon
and other apparatus must soon be to-
tally destroyed unless immediate action
is taken to provide not only shelter,
but adequate quarters to permit Of ef-
feient and concentrated action in case
OF fire.
A small blaze well famed may in a
few minutes place your growing city
beyond salvation and bring ruin to
thousands. The recent catastrophe to
Tonopah should be made impossible
here, and the only way to guard against
such a visitation is to provide for rapid
and efficient concentration of effort;
which means a well equipped central
fire house with every instrument for
fighting fire at hand.

GOLDFIELD GIRL WINS HIGH
AT BOSTON UNIVERSITY

Goldfeld is honored in the honors
showered upon one of her young ladies
at Boston University, one of the most
noted colleges of New England. The
young lady is Miss Gladys Wilton,
whose home is on Crystal avenue.
The Boston Journal of May %, prints
a picture of Miss Wilton and the fol
Lowing extremely flattering notice. Miss
Wilton must have attracted much at
~tention to receive such prominence in
one of Boston's greatest papers.
I'm spite of a time-worn aphorism
that brands beauty as lacking in
brains, Miss Gladys Wilton, a Boston
University senior, College of Liberal
Arts, has won out in the competition
for class poem and class ode.
"Miss Wilton is one of the prettiest
and most popular girls in college. She
will take the degree of A. b. this COM
ing year with high rank as a student.
Her home is in Goldfeld, New, but she
has a host of acquaintance in New
England, as her father, who is a minis
ter, preached in different churches here
during her childhood.
"Miss Wilton is a member of the
Greek fraternity, Gamma Phi Beta,
Delta Chapter. She served her class
as treasurer in her sophomore year, and
was class president last year.
