Considerable Disafiection Over Vote On

considerable disafeetion is beine
manifested about the village because Of
the outcome Of the recent village meet
ing. II seems that at the meeting in
question there was not a fair repre-
sentation Of the voters Of the village
and that there was motion made and
voted that the village should suspend
its use OF the Passumpsie river water
for domestic purposes. Now the com
plant arises that the village author
tiles are stopping the use Of the water
in pursuance Of the order and that fam.
lies on the outskirts Of the village are
being deprived Of its use unjmstly They

Of the river water for the purposes Of

poses other than cooking and drinking
purposes Another meeting will doubt

TYPHOID FLIES

1t is estimated that fully 80 per
cent of all the flies in our homes
are what r termed the ordinary
house flies, of late called typhoid
flies and. the greatest and most
persistent germ carriers in the
world today.
Dirty homes, dirty people, dirty
surroundings and typhoid flies"
are always found together.
Manure. garbage and filth
readily breed flies and death at the
same time. consequently keep your
premises clean and sanitary at all
times.
Flies feed upon focal matter and
then these notorious little pests,
literally alive with deadly germs,
swarm upon the diner table, where
perhaps babes are being fed.
Flies eat tubercular sputu wher-
ever found and. constantly excretc
the germs of tuberculosis or con
sumption.
1t is an established fact that flies
produce dyscntcry, diarrhoca,
typhoid fever, consumption and
other fatal diseases.
II is common knowledge that
flies are born in indcscribable filth,
live in filth, cat filth and carry filth
from place to place. Do every
thing in your power TO rid your
premises of these deadly cnemis to
humankind. Go to your druggist
and get some kind Of insecticide
and use it freely around your home
or place Of business.
At least screcn your windows
and doris and protect food supplies
from these dirty, filthy, germ.
carrying pests at once. This pre-
caution may save the life of your

MORE WELLS At LAS VEGAS

The past week J. F. Miller, drill.
ing for water on the Miller ranch
south of town, and Alex McVeigh
Miller, who has been sinking on his
property ten miles east from
Vegas, have both been successful
in bringing in flowing wells.
This is well No. ; on the j. F.
Miller place, the present flow of
about twenty inches having been
struck at a depth of 100 feet. Two
of these wells have been capped, as
it is proposed to construct a
common reservoir to which all the
supply will be diverted. Laterals
will be run over a large acreage
from the reservoir, and the water
will then be available for irrigation
purposes in practical and economi-
cal shape. Work has now been
started on we'll No. 6.
At Senator Miller's Jericho plat,
the flow as encountered at a depth
of 442 feet, the last fifteen feet
being in blue clay. 1t is believed
an effort will be made to get
through the clay to the coarse
gravel known t. be below. Swell.
ing ground has temporarily delayed
sinking the casing. 1t is proposed
to use a smaller sized casing ant

ISAAC GRIsWDLD

Isaac Griswold of Starr valley
tells his republican friends that he
is a candidate at the September
primary election for short term
county commissioner. Mr.. Girls
void has served the people of Elko
county as a member of the assembly
and his record as a legislator was
clean and honorable.
Mr.. Griswold is an old resident
of Elko county and one of its most
active and enterprising citizens.
He owns a fine farm in Starr valley
and is one of its solid citizens.
His long residence in the county,
his active interest in its affairs,
his thorough knowledge of the
needs of the county and the sue
cessful management of his private
affairs should commend him to the
republican voters as an ideal cand-
idate for county commissioner.
If Mr.. Griswold is given the
nomination by his party, he will
make his democratic opponent go
some to pass under the wire ahead
of him.

CANDIDATES, TAKE NOTICE

y Candidates for State offices and
members of the Legislature are
dallying with time, as few of their
petitions have been filed with the
Secretary of State. Assistant
Acknowledgement Fowler has sent
the following letter out to the state
papers in order that the candidates
may know where they are at. The
letter reads as follows:
Carson City, New, July 80, 1910.
Gentlemen:
In connection with the Primary
Act, beg to advise you that some
of the state candidates seem to be
laboring under the impression that
if their nomination papers are on
file with the various County Clerks
of this state 80 days prior to the
day of election that this will be
in compliance with the law and will
constitute a filing, but their view of
the law in this respect is erroneous
as their papers must be on file with
the Secretary of State 30 days
prior to the day of election.
am writing you in this respect
as | consider it a matter of great
Importance that this information
shall be properly circulated, and if
you are so disposed it will surely
be beneficial if you will make some
reference to it in the columns Of
your paper.
Very truly yours,
LEONARD B. FOWLER.

M'MAHON AND GREVY

In Paris in the revolution of
1880 a law student was soundly
kicked by one of the kings Offices
for tearing down u copy of the
ordinances placarded on the wall.
The officer was armed, the student
was not, so the later ran away.
Neary a half century later, in
1879, the officer called upon the
student to bid him goodby, having
just resigned the presidency of the
French republic on account of a
radical difference with the majority
of the national assembly on ques-
tions of state policy. He combined
with his adieus also a graceful
word of congratulation on the
students election to succeed him in
the presidential chair. The student
was Jules Grevy; the officer wa!
Patrice de MacMahon, who died
ripe in years and honors.

HIS WELCOME FOR PRODIGAL

noticed a cowboy staring at him
very hard. He thought ne had

f. A. FRISSELL

Although there is no salary
attached to the office of county
surveyor, it is mono the less inn
portant that a capable mar should
fill it. There are times in the

correctness of the county sur
vcyor's work is an important factor
in the administration of justice.
Mr.. f. A.. Frissell whose an.

THE REAL STAGE DRIVER

A writer in the Mirror says
he C took a stage ride, and he
closes by saying: How these men
(the stage drivers) manage to keep
unfailing guard over horses, vehicle
and diversified. jumbled cargo, to
conquer the recurrent dangers and
difficulties of the road, ana at the
same time to satisfy the mostly idle
curiosity of garrulous passen gers,
is an accomplishment that utterly
eludes my understanding" The
reason is plain enough the eyes of
the Mirror writer are dimmeu or
he would understand that the real
stage driver is born to his calling,
as much so as was eve an artist in
some other line of art. He can
exactly calculate distances, he
understands perfectly the charac-
ter of a horse. and knows 10y in
stint the horse that has no
character He knows all about
what he is carrying and where
each piece must be delivered.
Moreover, the horses know the
driver, and, if he is a real driver,
the horses know it and learn to
take half the responsibility eff his
hands. The eastern papers often
bring us illustrations of coaching
| parties. We have longed for years
to see one real stage driver with six
mustangs, give an exhibition of
real stage-driving to those people.
! All six horses on a dead run turn
ing on a run, and stopping at just
the right spot, climbing a grade,
going down a crooked grade on
the run. horses, coach and driver all
in accord. AS to talk with passen-
| gers, that does not disturb them,
for it takes no effort of the brain,
does not divert the eyes, or the
attention, for one instant, for the
driver learns quickly to understand
human nature and just how much
attention is required for each one.
"Mr. Monk, did you bring my
trunk up today" said a lady at
Glenbrook, Lake Tahoe. mo, not
today will bring half of it up to-
morrow" was the reply. Half
of it? What do you mean by half
of it," was the next question.
"It's too big to bring all at once
they we're saving it in two when !
came away, and said they would
have half of it ready tomorrow"
Saving it in two!" screamed the
lady. Why, all my party dresses
are in that trunk and they will be
ruined" They will be all the
better" said Monk. you know
you ladies don't more than half
dress anyway when you go to a
party" And all this with i'm
perturbable face and a look of
candor that was APPALLING.
What the Mirror writer wonder
ed at was nothing. He should be
with M of them in an inky black
night, with six half-breed horses,
on a steep, crooked and icy trail.
Then he would see some real driv-

MISS ETA WOOLvERTON

About $3.50 o'clock this NOM

daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. B. w.
Woolvertop, passed away at the
Redwood hospital. Miss Woolver-
ton has been failing for some time
and last week she was brought
from Starr valley by her father
and taken to the hospital. Here
she had the best of care and
medical attention, but typhoid
fever had taken such a firm hold
on her system that science and
care were powerless to stay its
course.
Miss Woolverton was born in
Ruby Valley on June 6, 1892. She
was loved and respected by a large
circle of friends. Beside these
friends. a father and mother, two
sisters, a brother and grand
parents mourn her early death.
One of the bright lights of their
home is dimmed forever. They
have the sincere sympathy of this
community in their bereavement.
The date of the funeral cannot
be fixed until word is received
from Mrs. Woolverton's sister who
lives in California.
