LOVELOCK WATER SYSTEM
NOW IN FINE SHAPE

Although steady improvements are
being made in the 1Lovelock Water
System, under the superintendency
oil e. L. Stiff, the general public Is
not fully aware of what isgoing on.
The latest Improvement in the sys-
tenn is the complete remodeling Of
the old Corliss engine, that was uset
for years, prior to the installation of
the new Fairbanks Morse engine.
The old engine has been complete
ly overhauled, L. N. Marker Of the
Lovelock Machine Works being en-
gagged in the work. A new cylinder
was put in and all the bearings bah
tilted A trial run proves 1t to be
in almost as GOOD condition as when
new.
The town now has two first class
engines, ready for use at NOM
ents notice and in case one Is dis
abled, the other can be used. With
the combined power of the two eng
ines, a water pressure could be pro-
duced that would be sufficient to
burst the water mains.
Many improvements have been
made in Lovelock in the past three
Years, including an electric fire
alarm system, the installation of u
sewer system, the repair and grad
| ing of tn. streets, and practically
| a new water pumping system.
or all the improvements, however,
the latter Is probably the most I'M
portant of any.

Friends of Louis j. Campbell, for
merly Cripple Creek lawyer, who

legislature, have just learned that
he has recently sold for $2SO,0OC
his interest in the National mine i'll

of fee for legal services rendered

Mr.. Campbell drifted out to Ne

Lovelock, mining camp about nine
ty miles west of Winnemucca, Ne
vada About three years ago, the
Pelton brothers, who had known
Campbell in Cripple Creek and who
had discovered the National, came t.
him for advice, which he gave for
some time without any immedia
return. Finally, one of the broth
ers came to the lawyers office and
asked what his fee should be.
Campbell responded that he thought

MINERS BEAT THE FARMERS
IN A SLOW BALL GAME

Crowded bleechers, and the ve-
hicle space we'll filled with bugg-
les and automobiles, besides large
crowd of side liners witnessed the
baseball game last Sunday after
noon between Lovelock and team
from Seven Troughs and Mazuma.
The score of II to indicates
the loose character of the game.
What clever playing there was to
the game, was punctured here and
there with many errors, some small
and some glaring. At the beginn-
ing of the game, in the first inn
ing, with the visitors at the bat,
Lovelock appeared to be suffering
from stage fright. Repeated ep-
rors on the part of several players
were responsible for the boys from
over the hills rolling up six runs. In
fact during the first inning. the
audience begon wondering whether
they we're witnessing a real base
bali game or just little practicing
After the first inning the home team
managed to pull itself togather but
the big lead the miners obtained on
the start, evidently took the wind
cut of the home teams sails, and
they steadily lost ground to the Wis
itors. The playing of Seven
1roughs was easily ahead of Love-
lock, although on several occasions
tne visitors were retired at bat in
], 2, 3 order, in some very clever
playing. b
Lovelock was weak at batting.

DIVERSION DITCH HEAD GATES I'M
LOVELOCK ARE NOW UNDER
STATE SUPERVISION
Serious Dissension amoung Irrigators Averted
through Installation Of New System Of
a Dividing River Waters

During the present shortage OF
water in Lovelock, the farmers of
the valley have agreed to new
system of distributing irrigation wa
ter, under the supervision of State
Engineer Kearney, who has appoint
ed Frank Davis, of Lovelock a
deputy to inspect the head gates
daily, and raise or lower them in
accordance with the agreement that
has been entered into.
1t has been arranged to supply
the water to different irrigators in
rotation, and the system was start
last Sunday morning when full
head was turned down to the Rog-
ers ditch for ten days use, when
it will be turned to other irriga-
tors.
The only man privileged to ad-
Just head gates, is Mr.. Davis,
who is clothed with authority OF

conform with the agreement be-

tween the appropriations.
This action was determined upon
at meeting the latter part of
las. week, at which were present
jos. Hill, John G. Taylor, Judge
Slack, F. Anker, A Westfall, Hans
Jensen, and others, representing the
controlling interests in all the
diverting channels in the valley.
There has been some dispute be-
tween valley irrigators this season,
and the matter had almost reached
the filing of law suit and the "a
plication for water injunction.
Fortunately, however, through the
timely arrival of the State Engin-
eer, and the broad mindedness of
the irrigators, the dissention now
appears to have been amicably ad
justed, and system of water div
ision has been established that
will no doubt be adhered to in years
to come.

Replying to a recent article
he Tribune, relative to the watt
ituation, on the Humboldt ri
r, The Elko Free Press says:
I'VE would say for the bene-
fit of our esteemed brother ed
itor, that until a few days ago
even the ranchers in this coun-
ty were unable to irrigate their
lands, adjacent to the Hum
boldt river as the water has
been too low. and the weather
too cold to start the snow wat
er. The river is rapidly rising
and possibly by tomorrow will
be bank full, and the water
passing Elko today will reach
Lovelock. pbout July 15, as it
takes fully thirty days for the
water to reach l.ovelock.
Nov in support as to our
argument that irrigation on the
upper tributaries of the stream
Will help the ranchcrs in the
l4ovelock valley, we would like
to say that if the proposed am
cunt of acreage was put under
irrigation in Elko county the
soil becomes saturated to a
certain extent with water
which by the laws of gravity
again seeks the water bed of the
stream, and continues it's in
terrupted flow. There is no
evaporation but steady flow
of water the year round, into
the river. Where now the
Humboldt river at this point
practically ceases its flow in
the latter part of the summer
and the flow is but littlein the
winter months by means of the
vast natural reservoirs~-viz.
the irrigated lands-the river
would be kept up to an average
flow the year round, and where
now the Lovelock ranchers are
short on water, they would
then uitjer the proposed plan
always have dependable sup
ply all the year round, and not {
when the flood waters reach
there in July.
"If, as the Tribune says, the
river is too low to afford an
irrigation of the lands in Love
lock valley at the present time,
why has there been of late,
several applications for thous-
ands of feet of water. one apph-
cation alone, asking for $1,000
acre feet. Where is the wat
er to come from, Brother Case
If you are now short?"
