THE SEWER MEETING

Only a few of the citizens turned
out to the meeting last night TO
hear the report of the committee on
the sewer proposition. Those
present, however. heard the report
of the committee and concluded to
go head with the matter.
The committee estimated the
probable cost of the system at
from $50, 900 to $4,000 and urged
the necessity of cooperating the
town before any steps were taken
toward bonding the town. They
also suggested that a new survey
of the town was necessary a. the
one made a few years ago did not
give the rquired grade for the main
sewer extending west to the river.
The report of the committee was
adopted and Stanley Taber was APP
pointed to canvass the town for
signature to a petition asking the
district court to decree the in
corporation of the town. Such
petition must be signed by amajority
of the qualified electors and tax
payers within the limits of the
present town, as shown by the last
official registration list and as.
sessment roll. The petition must
have annexed thereto an accurate
map or plat of the town containing
the streets and alleys, and should be
accompanied with satisfactory proof
of the number of inhabitants within
the territory embraced in said
limits.
When the application for the in
corporation of the town is made to
the district court, if the judge is
satisfied with it suflciency a
decree is entered declaring the in
corporation of the town or city.
When that is accomplished, the
court appoints 5 commissioners to
conduct an election for city OF
town officers.
The above is from the law passed
by the legislature in 1907.

That lost and found property
department at Scotland Yard is one
of the best things they have in
London" said a woman who has
spent much time in England. Last
summer | had experience with it.

losing things. First it was a
valuable umbrella. ! did not miss

after theater supper. The next
morning | made my husband take
me to the theater and the two res
taurants where we had been the
night before, but without result.
Then an American friend sug-
gested Scotland Yard. | went
there, and there it was. 1t had
been turned in by a cab driver.
Twice ~afterward ! lost that
umbrella and got it back in the
same fashion. each time leaving as
a reward for the cab driver a per
cent of the value of the umbrella,
as required. Then n night | lost
a fine pair of opera glasses, and
got them back.
at is an excellent system the
police ole r there have of encourag-
ing honesty. A cab driver who finds
anything in his vehicle is required
to turn it in, and he knows that if
the owner claims it he will be re-
warded. Exchange.

STABBING At ELY

Seemingly without provocation.
James Crary, a former police officer
in this city, while intoxicated,
stabbed G. o. Needham, a loco
motive engineer, in the groin in a
cutting ARRAY at the Capitol saloon
about 8 o'clock this morning.
Needbam and his assailant had
not been previously acquainted but
accidentally met in the Capitol
saloon early this morning. Both
men had been carousing during the
night and had several drinks to-
gether before the trouble occurred.
Several of Crary's friends haG
tried to induce him to go home,
and Needham thoughtlessly men
toned that it would be advisable tc
pay particular heed to the sug,
gestion of his friends.
Dissatisfied with Needham's re.
marks Crary, without saying a word,
whipped out a long knife and
slashed Needham in the abdomen.
The cut is about an inch long and
penetrated the ~intestines to a deptf
of about six inches. The extent Of
Needham's injuries cannot be de.
termined at this time.
After the stabbing Needham wa!
brought to the Office of DIR. A. F
Adams, where the wound wa,
dressed. iNeedham was removed
to the county hospital about moor
and after being confined for two
hours, the wounded man was finally
taken to the Steptoe hospital TO,
treatment.
Crazy was arrested at 3 O'Clock
this afternoon on the charge OF
assault with intent to kill and wa.
released later upon furnishing {
satisfactory bond in the sum of S75C
with II. o. Hall and A. j. Fesler a,
sureties. ELY Expositor

THE FARMER AND WHEAT

Fairly authentic statistic s to date

crops ever harvested this year. It

yield will be about 35, 900, 900.
bushels less than in 1909. Logi-
cally, the price ought to be higher
nov than it was then, yet it is
about rs cents lower. The pulchri-
tudinous Patten and other pecula-
tors (pardon, we would say specula-
tors) made the farmers believe last
year that the bins were empty and
the crop short and promised two
dollar wheat. As a matter of
fact the man behind the pillow got
about half that. and incidentally
Manipulators Patten benevolently
assimilated a few paltry millions
of dollars. This year he and the
Chicago clique tried the game over
again. The last gouging made the
farmer somewhat more wary, how
ever, and the corner failed, wheat
for July delivery on June 13 being
quoted at 922, whereby Patten
transferred a million and a half to
the debit of his ledger. Gamblers
in grain are in the same class with
grafters in government franchises
and special privileges. The day is
coming when che pinched proletariat
will boost the patriots of the pre-
vailing party out of office. II com.

MlsER's SALARY INCREASE

The close-fsted policy Of re-
publics in the matter of rewarding
official duty is again emphasized in
the refusal to vote a few thousands
TO recoup the presidents travel
fund, as against the action of Prussia
in raising the Kaiser's salary to
5 5000, 900 a year, an increase of
s1,O75,0OO
In our case congress could do
nothing more provocative of a
political upheaval than to add to the
presidents allowance ven one
twentieth of what the Kaiser asked
for and got. and that too, without
the political seismograph registered
a tremor of disapproval.
The leaders of the principal
groups in the 'Prussian parliament
conservatives, liberals, and radi-
cals-simply got together and
quietly agreed upon the proposition.
What would the American people
say upon scanning a list of presi-
Dental needs calling for appropri-
atoms for the maintenance of so
town and country White Houses on
a scale vf royal m~agnificence. many
of which never see the presidents
shadow cross the threshold?
We Americans are great admirers
of the Kaiser, but would u liking
for him stand the strain of actual
contact and cost? Nobody would
entertain the idea of $1,000, 600 a
year.
Again, would we abide a presi-
dent who would subsidize royal
theaters and opera houses to the
amount of $780, 600 a year?
When President Taft goes to the
play he patronizes the box office
nothing more-and yet not a few
look askance at a president who
countenances the theater to that
slight extent.
And so on down the civil list"
as the imperial expense account is
called. With only our presidents
salary and travel allowance, amount
ing to 800, 900 a year, the Kaiser
would be or the ragged edge in
week.-Oklahoma Times.

THE SEWER MEETlNG

There was rather a small attend
ance at the meeting last night TO
consider the proposition of sewefing
the town. Mr.. Mcbride called the
meeting to order and was promptly
elected chairman. The organi-
cation was completed by the election
of Stanley Taber as secretary.
The proposition of sewcring the
town was then discussed, the pre-
vailing opinion being that the sewer
bonds could not be sold unless the
town va incorporated. After some
discussion. Mr. Frissell moved
that a committee of three be APP
pointed to serve without pay to
make an estimate of the probable
cost of a sewer system and to report
the anne at a meeting to be called
in the near future. The motion
was adopted and the chair appointed
A. w. Hesson. E. A. Frissell and r.
H. Mallett as the committee.
Il was the opinion Of those present
that when an estimate of the cos
was made that the town be can
vassed for signatures to a petition
asking the commissioners to call
special election for the purpose o:
voting on the proposition of in
cooperating and bonding the town
There was no dissent from tn
proposition of sewering the town
the only question being as to tn
best way to go about it. Whethe
or not the proposition of incorpor
ating the town will complicat
matters remains to be seen. On
thing is certain. however, and tina
is that a sewer system is the crying
need of Elko.

He DRAWS THE LINE

W. have just received an offer
from an advertising agency which
carries as an emolument for running
a quarter page advertisement for
a year. a dozen bottles of dago red
made in California, which is guar
anteed to knock the Grim Reaper
out in three rounds of fighting, to
make a man stronger than Sampson
and a woman as mild as the armless
Venus de Milo, and the promoters
of this gigantirc scheme advise
humanity without regard for pre-
vious servitude. to take the wine
as a cure-all. Although the quail
ties of the dope are painted as
gorgeously as the tints of Zeuxis,
we refuse to be persuaded, cajoled
or intimidated. We draw the line
on advertising for such a reward,
although in times past we have
printed wedding notices without
getting a piece of cake church
social notices without being handed
a portion of ice cream and we have
even printed lengthy items about
the biggest hen egg ever laid"
in these parts without being brought
a piece of the chicken upon demise.
All of these offenses have we
