SUGAR BETS IN UTAH

The first experiment in beet
sugar culture in this country was
undertaken by the Mormons in
1851. Philip De La Mare, who is
living at Tooele City, was the
man responsible for shipping the
machinery to Utah Elder John
Taylor was then filling IA mission
in Europe, and he had been in
structed by Brigham Young to be
on the lookout for anything new
in the industrial or agricultural
line. Taylor ard De La Mare in

however, broke down under the
heavy loads. Later 40 large Santa

drawn by from four to eight
yoke of oxen. In November, 1852,
the first machinery for making
sugar from brets arrived at Salt

WATER COMMISSIONERS

Alamosa and La lara rivers and
canals leading from them being in
all SS priorities and bitches. To-
tai length of main bitches, 39l

dicthes is $4,000 cubic feet per
second of time and during the
past season the water actually
used amounted to only 1861 cubic
feet per second of time. There
are two reservoirs in District 81,
the La lara reservoir, which held
$4,000 acre feet of water of which
only about 10000 acre feet were
used. The Terrace reservoir held
about 10000 acre feet and only

each of the schools and give in

not occupy all of the teacher s

given. Any competent teacher
would do well to communicate
with the school board. The public
schools must be kept up to the
highest possible efficiency and
the new branches are in line with
this thought. An unexpected

Electric Franchise Passed

An ordinance granting to G. E
Miles of Salida % year electric
light franchise passed last night at
an adjourned meeting of the town
board. 1t gives the town the right
to purchase the plant at the ex-
piration of ten and fifteen year
periods. 1t gives the company the
right to all streets, alleys and
public grounds. The rate for light
per kilowatt hour until generating
machinery Of 100 kilowatts capao-
ity is required when the rate
shall not be more than twelve
and half cents. When the capac-
ity of the plant shall have grown
to 200 kilowatts the rate shall be
10 cents. The minimum charge to
each customer is 81 so per month.
The section regarding street
lighting provides a rate of $50
per month for one kilowatt of
capacity of the lamp so opera
ted" whatever that means. PRO
vided, however, the grantee shall
never be required to furnish or
operate lamps or light of less than
IS nominal candle power at said
rate Electricity is usually
sold by the kilowatt hour and not
by the kilowatt month. One kilo
watt means LOCO watts and is
equal to about ia horse power.
1t is claimed by the makers of
the Mazda tungsten lamps, which
is the last word in electric light
ing, that they can be operated at
an efficiency of l.25 watts per
candle power. Which would pro-
vide for about l6 fair sized corner
street lamps at $50 per month
which is cheap enough. If lamp
Of less efficiency is used, however
the number of lights would be
much reduced.
The Chronicle hears consider
able discussion as to the right of
the town trustees to pass the
ordinance without vote of the
property owners. Towns cannot
issue bonds or purchase real
property without an election but
this is an ordinance granting the
use Of streets and alleys to cetrain
persons under certain conditions
and does not involve the purchase
of property or even the eXpendi-
ture of money by the town.
The laws provide that the ordi-
nance shall be read at reg
ular meeting of the town board
and published once before and
once after its final passage.
The ordinance further provides
that the work shall begin within
90 days and be finished within
eight months.

remain sometime working out the
details in the organization of his
company.

GAMBLERS PLEAD NOT GUILTY

At a session of the district
court held this morning the cases
of Thomas j. Ca. ncy. Edward
Carney and c. c. Lawson, indicted
by the grand jury for alleged
violation of the anti-gambling law,
were c.lled and Attorney Fowler
of Reno interposed a demurrer in
all three cases, but the same were
overruled. The demurrcrs main
tanned that the court had no
jurisdiction, that the indictments
did not conform with certain
provisions of the Acts regulating
criminal cases, that the grand
jury had had no legal authority,
and that the facts alleged in the
indictments do not constitute a
public offense. ATTIC rncy Fowler
entered an exception to the ruling
of the court.
Upon being asked if the defend
ants desired to answer to the
indictments. Attorney Fowler
entered pleas of not guilty in all
three cases, and the same will now
be set for trial, which will
probably not be until sometime
in February or March. Judge
Langan stated that nc could not
set definite date, as he will be
occupied in Carson on the State
Bank case all through January and
III February will hear the DR..
Eikner murder case at Yerington.

TREATY TO PREVENT
DRY NIAGARA

The United States and Canada
have negotiated a treaty which
controls the diversion of water
from the Niagara river and
preserves the scenic grandeur of
Niagara Falls for all time. The
treaty goes into full effect auto
matically in March, upon the
expiration of the law which now
limits some of its provisions.
The international agreement
was made in response to a general
demand that the question of water
diversion be settled once and for
all in accordance with expert
opioion. The treaty makers had
exhaustive tcsts conducted by
hydraulic engineers. and it was
determined that diversions should
not exceed $4,000 cubic feet a
second on the Canadian side and
10000 feet on the American side,
out of total flow of 100000 cubic
feet a second, The use Of this
quantity Of water for power
purposes. the engineers found,
would not affect the appearance
Of the Falls sufficiently for the
eye to detect. Since only about
half the quantity permitted by the
treaty is now diverted, twice the
present horse power can be pro.
duced without endangering the
scenic beauty OF the cataract.

these are such good thing for
the people. why were the people of

of them: Why ~as he not given a
place on the c6unty's payroll? The
health of the valley people should
be looked after just as carefully as
those who live in railroad towns or

health of his people, DR.. Hagcr
might find some cold shacks" in
Ruby valley that are dangerous to
life and property. He might
