THE WATER PRoPo-
SITioN DEFEATED.

The proposition submitted by the
city council of Alamosa, whether that
body should construct water works,
was defeated at the election held
yesterday to determine the issue.
There were 142 votes cast, 46 for
and 96 against the proposition.
But Alamosa will not abandon the
determination to have water sys-
TEN adequate for fire protection and
domestic use, for future city of at
least $4,000 people.
The people who voted at the cleo
ton yesterday. against the PROPOSE
| ton as submitted. did not do so to
set the city back but because the
ordinance submitting the question
gave no information as to the plan
council might determine to select
The people had no idea whether the
council would expend fifty thousand
or one hundred and fifty thousand
dollars. And the people had desired
and the council had promised to
MAKE thorough investigation Oh
any opportunity to emp'oy gravity
system. The council did not submit
the report of any competent engineer
could or could not be availed, or that
such system being available, the
amount of the necessary expenditure
would not be within the financial
reach of the city. The council did
not publish information of any charac
ter bearing upon the subject. Many
voted against because they could
not even learn that mains adequate
for the future, would be laid.
A Mass Meeting of the Taxpayers
of Alamosa should be called at once
to discuss the much needed water sys-
TEN, and the council should be III ged
to make thorough investigation as
to the cost of a gravity system, and
then, submit a proposition, giving the
taxpayers choice of the gravity and
the standpipe, or any other system,
submitting an estimate of the cost
of each. and specifying adequate mains
each.

TEN will not be Observation-Disclosures

NEVADA GOVERNOR NOT
OPPOSED TO FIGHT.
Jeffries-Johnson Bout Will Be
Pulled Off At Reno, JuIy 4.

JeffrieS-JohnSon Bout VIII Be
Pulled Off At Reno, July a.
Reno. New, June 21.-With Reno
definitely fixed as the battle ground
with positive assurance from the
governor that no attempt to inter
fere will be made by the state author
tiles, and with preparations already
under way for building the arena, the
Jeffries-Johnson fight tonight seems
certain of fulfillment July 4th. No
further complications are anticipated
and Promoter Tex Rickard is prom
ised the first quiet pillow that he
has had since Gov. Gillett issued his
ultimatum that the contest could not
be held in California.
Richards announcement shortly
after noon to-day of the selection of
the bate ground for the Jeffries-
Johnson contest was made in the form
Of signed statement as follows:
Il have decidid to hold the .Jeffries-
Johnson fight in Reno. In making the
selection l wish to give my reasons
for doing so. Goldfield made an offer
which it was hard to turn down.
They are the gamest lot of men I
ever saw. This morning a committee
of Goldfield business men offered to
take me to local bank and
guarantee me gate of 100000. /
decided on Reno, however. for sew
earl reasons. In the first place, l
did not feel that fight fans of the
East and West should be compelled
to take that extra 12-hour ride across
the hot desert to Goldfield. Then
again the people from San Francisco
can get here on the morning of July
1 and leave the same night in order
to be back to their business Tuesday
morning. For this reason | think
probably one or two thousand more
will come from San Francisco that
would not go to Goldfield. The Reno
people have done all they could. They
will build a suitable arena and buy
the 81 900 license for me.
