WELLS FARGO
RAISES EXPRESS
CHARGES AGAIN
A CHANCE FOR THE RAILROAD
COMMISSION OF NEVADA
TO GET BUSY.

Every once in a while some nervy
highwayman steps in front of a
stage and demands that the Wells
Fargo box be tossed out. II he has
the right kind of a drop on the
driver and the messenger, out comes
the box. Occasionally a robber
holds up a train and after dyna-
hitting Wells Fargo, gets a sack
of coin. He is pursued from one
end of the country to the other,
and as a rule winds up in prison.
Fargo keeps a lot of gumshoe men
on hand for such work.
The other side of the question
is different. When Wells Fargo
wants an additional bit of coin from
the people, they simply announce
raise in rates. There is nothing
to do but pay. The people have
no gumshoe men to run this class
of robbery down. There is NO
mask used, it is simply a case OF
stand and deliver without chance
of ever getting your coin back.
Last week Fargo notified the
butchers of the state that a raise
of IS cents per hundred pounds
would be exacted on fish shipped
from the coast. The merchant
has to stand for it, and he in turf
has to take it out of the custom
ers and consumers. To people whC
use fish 800 miles from the oceaI
it is like eating money. They art
doubly charged by this corporation
The express charge equals the pur
chase price. Fargo makes no con
cessions to anyone. They want i
all and they come very near get
ting it all.
During the past couple of year
the Western Union has been max
ing concessions to the people. Rate
have been cut and the corporatio
is catering for business. The Pos
ia! is doing the same They bot
give better service and are gettin
better and larger business as
result.

FIGURES GIVEN
ON PROJECTED dam
ON The Carson

WASHINGTON, d. c., May
The reclamation service gives out
here the dimensions and various
kindred figures regarding the La
hontan dam on the Carson river,
Just below the outlet of the main
Truckee canal This dam is ex-
pected to be one of the important
engineering works of the west. The
engineers have been engaged in
preparing the plans for several
months. A camp has already been
established to provide for the army
of men and this camp will be CON
nected with the Southern Pacific
railroad at Lahontan station.
Several locomotives are now on
the ground to move the freight.
The big DAM says the recla
nation service bulletin, will con-
sist of an earth embankment hav-
| ing length of 1850 feet. a max
imum height of 1875 feet and
volume of about 100000 cubic
yards 1t will form a storage res
ervoir having an area of 1900
acres, and capacity of 100000
iacre-feet. The embankment is to
be 20 feet wide on top, with an
upstream slope of to /, protected
by 2 feet of riprap, and a down.
stream slope of 2 to 1, protected
by IL inches of riprap.
Near the upstream toe of the
dam there is cutoff trench Is
feet in depth, having a concrete
wall 2 to feet in thickness ex-
tending to an additional depth of 80
feet The concrete spillways are
to be constructed, one at each end
, of the embankment, having the
crest of II feet below the top of
the dam. The length of each
spillway is $50 feet and the water
! flows down over concrete steps to
a circular pool in the pool, and
have a diameter of 230 feet river
bed near the toe of the dam. This
) and a depth of 80 feet will serve
to retard the velocity of the water
j, sufficiently to allow its discharge
into the old river bed without dan
: ger of eroding the SOIL
. The outlet work consists of twin
! concrete conduits of horseshoe
) shape, approximately eight feet in
i diameter. The gates are to be oper'
s ated from gate tower at the up
per end of the conduit. The es
3 timated cost of the dam is $1,250,
4 900 and the estimated quantitie!
It are as follows:
Excavation, 26S,OOO cubic yards
embankment and back-filling, TIA,
, 400 cubic yards; concrete, 60,37I
cubic yards; paving and riprap
$4,000 cubic yards; steel, 10000,
pounds"

on every turn, and in the meantime
furnish coin from the people to fight
the postal parcel problem. The few
concessions that have come have
been wrung from this bunch of mon
ey-grabbers by hard work on the
part of empowered commissions.
At the same time Fargo is side
stepping its taxes. 1t is fighting
the raise on taxes in the courts,
and putting the state and the peo-
pie to greater expense.
If it were possible to line up the
heads of this usurping concern, the
people would pounce on them and
either get portion of their money
back or there would be the sorriest
looking lot of corporation highway
men that ever decorated a hospital.
The railroad commission and the
interstate commerce commission
have taken a fall out of the rail-
roads. 1t had better turn its un-
divided attention to this corporate
leach Carson Appeal.

To Those Who

Atlanta, Nov. 30.-Pope Brown

in which he hits straight from the
shoulder at the prohibitionists who

He says: Il have no patience with

understand my position on the liquor
question; he makes a false claim
The beer people understand me; they
are not supporting me-they are
supporting Joe Brown; the whiskey
people understand it-they are sup
porting Russell. The man who
claims not to understand my posi-
ton is the man who wants to dodge
and wants an excuse. to vote for
some one else. Of course, he can't
be satisfied. and | shall not waste
time trying to satisfy him, He is not
only weakened, but evidently weak
