HIGH SCHOOL ELECTION CARRIES
Eureka County Polls a Large Vote In
Its Favor

The special school election which took
place throughout the county last Tues.
day for the purpose Of enabling the
qualified voters of the county to decide
whether a County High School should
be established in this county, was q
landslide In favor Of the proposition,
judging from the incomplete returns
already received.
Reports from the north end of the
! county last week were to the effect that
there would be considerable opposition
to the establishment Of a High School,
and as a result the voters of Eureka,
Ruby Hill and Prospect precincts turned
out almost to a man and supported the
measure.
The Board of County Commissioners
will meet Saturday. August z. to off,
cially canvass the vote.
AT the same meeting the Commits.
sioners will discuss the proposition as to
the most suitable place in the county to
locate the proposed High School. AS
Eureka has the largest number of chill.
dren attending school in any district in
the county. and also being the county
seat, it is thought the High School will
be located here.
The SENTINEL believes that the major.
ity of the voters of this county have
taken IN advanced step in an educa-
tional way in voicing their sentiments
in this matter, as it will rebound to the
benefit of all the children of the county.
The SENTINEL has received the unof.
hcial returns from five precincts of the
county as follows:

IRRIGATION AT CURRANT CREEK
Cazier Brothers and Other Ranchers to
Impound Water and Increase Acreage

Ely Record The Cszier brothers, who
have commenced work on a dam which
will impound the waters Of Currant
Greek, from which they will be able to
irrigate 600 acres more land than they
now have under cultivation. During
the present year they will raise the dam
20 a height of 81 feet, which will give
them water sufficient for $50 acres.
Later they will raise the dam to a
height of so feet from the base, which
will increase their water supply suf-
flciently to raise the total amount of
new land brought under cultivation to
at least 600 acres. The Cazier brothers
are among the most enterprising and
progressive farmers and ranchers in
Nye County. and during the past few
years they have made a pronounced sue
cess of their undertaking. Aside from
their stock and farming interests. they
raise much fruit and vegetables. which
find a ready sale at Ely and the nearby
camps. The Ely oldield railroad is
surveyed to come within a short distance
Of their ranches. which will greatly en-.
hance the facility for marketing their
produce.
Other ranchers along Currant Greek
will also put in dams. impound water
and increase their acreage of tillable
land. The prospects are hat within a
few years Currant Greek will become a
most prosperous aud extensive farming
community.

AUT0IsTs VISIT EUREKA
Party of Four Making Transcon.
tinental Trip From New York
to San Francisco

A party consisting of Mrs. N. r
Powell, Mrs. w. Atwood, Miss H
Johns aud Mrs. j. r. Ramsey Of Hacken
sack. New Jersey, arrived in Eureks
about IL p. m. Saturday night from Sal
Lake by auto and left Sunday morning
for Austin. Reno and San Francisco,
Samuel II. Shannan. agent for the Max
well Automobile Company. is plotting
the party from Salt Lake to San Fran
cisco in a runabout car.
The ladies will remain one day in San
Francisco and then 60 by rail to Seattle
and Yellowstone park. The register on
the machine shows they have travelled
1896 miles since leaving New York.
The four ladies left New York on June
o. and excepting for two weeks when
they were held up by cloud bursts and
washouts and a broken axle have been
touring all the time. Never for one in
slant, by the way. has there been one
minutes trouble with the mechanism
of the car.
When the party left New York they
expected to reach San Francisco about
the latter part Of July, not figuring Of
course, on the wretched conditions they
met in some places. Up to Clinton,
Iowa. the roads were very fine and the
first 1000 miles were made in one week.
After striking into Iowa, however,
heavy black gumbo roads were travelled
over-roads that were impossible in
some places as q result OF the heavy
rains which washed q the bridges and
in fact resulted in such conditions that
travel was absolutely impossible in
some places even over the railroad
tracks.
Once out of Nebraska and into Wy
oming the roads we're much better. and
over the mountains, through valleys and
across plains and deserts Mrs. Ramsey
made fine time. The tremendous
climbs over the mountains from 20 miles
east of Cheyenne 10 Odgen was made
without a bit of trouble, many of the
steep grades being easily taken by the
car at high speed. Across the plains
and deserts for most part the travelling
was good and the party enjoyed the
trip over the winding grass grown trail
1.-The trip across the country" said
Mrs. Ramsey, "has been wonderfully
interesting and enjoyable. From the
very start we have enjoyed the run and
there have been just enough happen
ings out of the ordinary to make 1t ex.
citing. Coming through the mountains
we saw a number of coyotes, the first
have seen out of captivity. while along
the way prairie dogs and rabbits have
been so thick that at times we had to be
careful not to run them down. The
scenery in Nebraska, Wyoming aud Ne
veda. so far. has been beautiful. cross
ing first up a mountain and then down
into a valley. following along the old
trails on which SO much history was
made. / am really surprised that the
trip so far has been so easy. This is
due, of course, in a measure, to the fact
that the car has stood up under some
pretty hard jolting and has not caused
a bit of trouble since we left New York"
When the ladies left Salt Lake City
they were accompanied for some dis
lance by a number of enthusiastic
motorists in cars, among them being
ex.Mayor Thompson and family of that
city.
