WATER COMPANY TO
FURNISH ADEQUATE
FIRE PROTECTION
viii Install Seven Additional Hydrants
in Unprotected Districts and Build
Reservoir ON One of the Surrounding
Mountains.

Yesterday afternoon Colonel e. G.
Wheeler, president of the Tonopah
United Water company, conferred
with delegation of representative
citizens in the law offices of Hugh
H. Brown, relative to the water
question which has been under de-
bate for the last few days. The sit
uation from all sides was presented
and discussed and at the conclusion
of the meeting Colonel Wheeler
stated that he was willing to aid the
citizens of Tonopah in their endeav-
or to secure adequate fire protec-
ton for the outlying districts.
His statement was to the effect
that he was in favor of, and would
ask the executive council of the
board of directors of the water COM
pany to install, a reservoir on Mount
Brougher, or some other advantag-
eous point. whereby a supply of wa
ter with sufficient force could be
procured to protect the homes that
are beyond the present protected
HOiAS. vi tHSI LHdH LHIS, ne was III
favor of the installing of seven ad-
ditional hydrants. The improve
ments would be made at the expense
of the water company but a small
change would be made in the water
rates that are now in force with
the town regarding the paying for
the hydrants. The present rate calls
for a monthly rental of $3.50 per
hydrant, of which there are twenty
three. Under the proposed rate, the
hydrants will call for a charge of
81 for the first twelve months and
after that price not to exceed Sc
per month. This is a material re-
duction and calls for an expenditure
of $3.50 a month, a sum only So in
excess of what the county commits
sioners are paying at the present.
At the mass meeting in the Min
ers' Exchange hall last night, which
was called to discuss the self same
question, the result of the afternoon
conference was made known to the
citizens and taxpayers who had as
sembled. The meeting was called
to order by r. P. Dunlap, who
called for nominations for chairman

Owing to repairs necessary to the
air compressor at the Belmont mine,
the workings will be closed down
for the next week. The foundation
of the compressor will have to be
rebuilt and the length of time the
mine is closed will depend upon the
length of time required for the ce-
ment to set.
This will also cause a suspension
of operations in the Belmont shaft,
but when the repairs are completed
the work will be rushed along with
increased vigor.
