nishing water through inch mains,
with a mean fall of 1S6 feet, as
against the sewer company's system
of 4 inch residence laterals, inch
crosstown laterals and a 10 inch
main in Main street, with mean ia J
of 1873 feet, cannot. it is easy to per-
ceive, supply water in quantities
great enough to overtax the sewer
system. From observations made
last fall by the engineer. at the time
of greatest thaw, the present mains
were not troubled in controlling all
waters drained into them.
When one takes into consideration
the vast amount of water that Is
drained from Florence avenue and
above, from Bryan avenue and above
and from Erie Main street and above,
coming into the mains, as it does
from these several watersheds, a.
Florence avenue and Erie Main
street, and at Brougher avenue and
Main street, one ought readily g
convinced as to the efficiency of the
present system, since it is common
knowledge that the mains were not
overtaxed at any time last fall. Il
the Unprecedented amount Of water
carried OFF by the system last fall did
not overtax it. it is safe to venture
the assertion that Tonopah has a
sewer system that will be adequate
for many years to come.

Making a yearly net earning
of. 81 500
The interest on $4,000 worth of
bonds at per cent would mean
$500 per year, to which should be
added the interest on the $4,000
worth of bonds issued by the COM
pany at per cent per annum, or
$500, making total of interest to
be paid per year of 1920; this, TAX
en- from the net earnings of $3.50,
would leave a balance per year Of
$3.50, which in ten years would
amount to $500; and, as it is set
forth in another part of this pro-
posal, that less than one-fourth OF
the property owners are using the
sewer system-an estimate most con-
seryative-as there are only one
hundred and ninety-two patrons, as
shown by the above table. surely an
other increase of fifty (50) per cent
in the original gross earnings is more
than assured, as this would mean
less than seventy-five (75) per cent
of all the buildings in Tonopah.
Based upon a gross earning of $3.50
per month (see table,, an assure
increase of fifty (50) per cent, as
stated above, would make further
earning per year of $1,000; or, IN
ten years, the necessary $4,000 re-
uuired to retire the balance of the
Company's bonds. leaving as fund
the above oyerplus of $500 to meet
any contingency that may arise.
It might by added that the pr"
posed additional tax of one "a p.-
cent upon which is figured the saw

From the above it can reasonably
be supposed that dating from the
day the city assumes control, owing
to reduced rates, so great number
of applications for sewer service will
be made that within ninety days Il
one hundred (100) per cent increase
in the city's gross earnings will be
seen, without any additional items
added to the operating expenses,
with the possible exception of, say,

Dear Sir: 1 feel 1t is my duty to en-
tighten you on some facts which deeply
concern you. Four or five suspicious
looking men were seen in close converse
stion in a box car standing In the Rock
Island railroad yards. / was very close
to the car, and having rubber heels, they
did not hear my approach. They were
busy formulating plans to assassinate the
next President, who, they said, would be
you, and moreover. they were going to
try their best to implicate some negro
men. One Of the men was very desper-
ate and swore he would do it at Chicago
the next time you came. but that he
would do so with rifle from the top of
some skyscraper. Yours, respectfully,

for the last time discussed American
questions was held today.
Cardinals Wives. Tuto, Cassetta. Gen

tinelli were present. The meeting was
presided over by Cardinal Gotti.
The discussion, which lasted over three
hours was almost entirely on the case of
the coadjutorship of San Francisco. FL
nally, partly because of the irregularity
with which the ticket of candidates was
formed. the congregation decided to ask
Archbishop Riordan to have new candi-
dates proposed by the irremovable rectors
and archbshops in the United States.
The appointment of Bishop Muldoon OF
Chicago to the post of bishop of Rockford

"A more orderly body of men never

CAMPAIGN IN CONNECTICUT.
Will Open With Republican Conven.

Will Open With Republican Conven-
ton at New Haven Tomorrow.
NEW HAVEN, Conn, September T.
The campaign in Connecticut will be
opened this week through the medium Of
the republican state convention in this
city tomorrow evening and Wednesday,
when a state ticket, seven presidential
electors and a representative at large will
be nominated. The democratic state con-
vention will be held at Hartford a week
later. ..
The canvass among the republicans for
convention delegates has been vigorous
and somewhat tinctured with bitterness
owing to many republican voters being
opposed to the so-called machine lead
ers' " pledge of two years ago that they
would make Representative George L.
Lilley the nominee for governor this year
in consideration of his stepping aside in
favor of Rollin S. Woodruff. then lieu
tenant governor. Antagonism to Mr.. Lii
many that he did not pursue wise pol
icy in the inquiry into the submarine
legislation at Washington.
Gov. Woodruff is a candidate for re-
nomination, and Lieut.. Gov. Everett J.
Lake, who won that Office after a fight
confronts Mr.. Lilley.
The leaders, however. in control of the
machinery in the towns have brought to
Mr.. Lilley four-fifths of the delegates, so
that the latter's nomination seems as
sured on the first ballot.
Many republicans claim, that Mr.. Lii
ley's nomination will weaken the party
ticket In Connecticut. This contention
was carried to the national committee
but Intervention was refused. as the
years no democrat has a chance to win in
this state.
