II i a common thing Oh hot days To
hear people say that the sun beats
down" Blu, few suspect that the RAYS
of light actually do beat down upon the

We are glad to note that a movement
! has been started 10 secure the trade of
the Jarbidgc district for Elko. If "A

10y the business mon of ElkO. the roads
to Jurbidgc can bc put in good cOndi-
ton next spring and the trade of that
district can b. diverted this way. Twin
Falls. Idaho. is ncarer To JurbidgC
than Elko. and thu people of that town
| are wide awake ard 50 far have CogTall-
ed all the trade. Elko is the natural
gateway To Jarbidgc and has many adj
vantagcs over the Idaho town. hut the
people on the outside do not know this
! aud will not know it unless Elko wakes
up and makes it known. Now is the
time To act.
