ISN'T n TIME TO WAKE uag

The county commissioners of Lin
coin county and the business men of
Phoebe saould wake up to the fact
that they have lively competitor
in Ely, that they are losing, golden
opportunity in not reaching out for
trade II the northern part of the
county, which under normal condi-
tions, lhould come here, but which
is bound to go to Ely unless some
thing is done to stem the tide.
In Lake valley Is situated vast
agricultural and stock growing region.
This country is one of the richest
spots il Nevada; where WAFER is
abundant and where The soil Is as
fertile as any anywhere on earth and
mostly all of this land is situated
within The confines of Lincoln county.
We are informed by MIR. j. s..
Bergman, prominent and influen-
tial raacher, that the citizens Of that
locality are disposed to do their
trading in Phoebe, because they have
their homes in Lincoln county and
have an interest In the welfare Of
the county. But he tells us that the
commissioners Of White Pine county
have made an appropriation to be
used II me improvements Of roads;
that the newspapers and business
men of Ely have been alive . slne
situation and that everything In their
power Is being done to induce thase
citizens Of Lincoln county To 90 to
White Pine county to do their trad
ing; whereas, a lletle recognition in
the matter of roa in DT3tnents etc,
might render complete change in
the situation.
MIR. Bergman also made some COM
PARSONS between Phoebe and Ely,
we are sorry to admit it, which I'M
fortunately are true. The copper town
on the north has a live commercial
club; it's citizens are always boost
ing" for Ely. the newspapers there
are given the encoura cement which
they ought to get from mining and
business men Of the Town. AS Mr..
Bergman says There are no moss
backs in Ely. Nobody knocks. Ev-
erybody boosts
That is just the spirit which ought
to prevail here in Phoebe. But does
1T? Surely not now. While we have
a great manywide-awake citizens who
are doing their share towards the
40 10 no
we also have some moss backs" who
always are knocking every Legitimate
enterprise. There are business men
In Phoebe who have never contrib
uted a dollar towards the support OF
the newspaper which is striving 10
upbuild The camp. Some there are
who have done little in that direc
tion; while others have been and are
NOV loyal in giving us encourage
ment to go on and make better pap
er out of the Record and boost for q
"Greater Phoebe"
But there are some persons here
who imagine newspaper can be con
Quoted on "hot air. alone. They for
get that newspapers have to buy sup
plies and pay the printer wages
still they want newspaper in camp
yet they do not support 1t.
AS we said few weeks ago, thu
old adage: "A person is judged b!
the company he keeps" also apple
to the mining camp and its newspa
per.
We ought to have q progressiv
business mems organization here an
we ought to do other things to Great
interest In Phoebe on the outside.
Ct mot time to wake up?

Naturalization Club Trying to Bring
About an Amendment to Naturaliza-
ton Law-Whist Enioyed-Notes.

A well attended meeting of the
Naturalization club was held Sunday
afternoon with President Joseph Cafon
presiding. For some time past the
matter Of the necessity Of going to
Hartford to take out naturalization
papers has been discussed. At present
the foreign born men who desire to
become citizens must go to Hartford
and appear before the superior court
judge. This involves two trips and
the expense to a Norwich man is about
$50. It is hoped to do away with this
trip and have the would-be citizens
appear before the superior court judges
in the various cities Of the circuit of
which Norwich is one. The result
would be the addition of a considerable
number Of new names to the voting
list. which in the past several years
has decreased not a little. During the
past week a letter concerning the sub
ject was written to Congressman Hig-
gins at Washington, who is understood
to be favorable to the movement, as is
also Representative Bushnell at Hart
ford. A reply IS expected this week..
This amendment to the naturalization
law must be placed before the legisla-
ture by Feb. II, 1909.
Arrangements for a sacred concert
to be given under the auspices Of the
club were also made and an arrange
ment committee appointed
