NEW LAW PROVIDES
FOR A ROAD FUND
Poll Taxes Go to Betterment of
State Highways

There has been considerable discus
sion as TO where the coutics through
out the state were to get the road
fund for the many improvements that
are needed and proposed. During the
session of the Legislature this matter
was given considerable attention with
the result of the following Law which
is in effect this year;
The new law approved March 27,
and passed by the last Legislature, is
as follows:
From and after the passage of this
Act all money received from polltax
collections shall be by the County
Commissioners OF the various coun
ties set aside for the exclusive use of
the different road districts, of the
several counties, according to the
amount, collected in the various road
districts and all receipts for poll taxes

is it a frame-up?' still remains the
question OF the hour in Los Angeles
the town where there is supposed to
be bitter opposition to union labor.
Surprising and significant is the at

ed. The prisoners are union men.
One of them is a leader in the labor
movement. 1t is an astonishing proof
of what Otis and the Times has not
accomplished, of how the average
Americans sense of fairness reacts
unconsciously against methods such
as those as have been used in the
Times long campaign of abuse and
vituperation.
For years the Times has been CON

City Election
for Monday

There Is to be city election in this
city on Monday, when those who have
registered will elect members for the
City Trustees. There has been very
little interest taken in the matter,
mainly from the fact that Carson has
always had set Of Trustees who
have worked for the interests of the
city. Unlike many other cities those
who are elected receive no compen-
sation. 1t is job where glory alone
compensates for the kicks and com
plants that arise from the work of
the men who hold down the job.
According to the proclamation as
issued the election will be held next
Monday. The voters in the second
ward will use Armory Hall, while the
Curry engine house will be used for
the First Ward men. The polls will
open at a. m. and will close at 6
o'clock. The registration has not
been very heavy and only those who
have registered can cast their vote
for the electors
The following ticket is IN the field

Big Contest
Monday Eve

The declamatory exercises to be
held in the High School Auditorium
next Monday night promise to be es-
pecially interesting. Hiss Edith Howe
has coached the seven High School
misses who are to contest for the
honor of representing Carson at the
interacademic meet in Reno next
month. AS this is the only depart
ment of the field meet in which the
Carson school enters, and as it has
invariably carried off first laurels, its
efforts should be encouraged by a
very generous support
Tickets are on sale at Muller's Drug
Store, and by school children for IS
cents; seats may be reserved at the
drug store at no extra charge.

time and as far as man is concerned
The Americans who worked in the
mills and the mines about Dayton fail
ed to realize the worth OF the soil in
that section There was the river
running past them and fine land on
either side OF the stream. 1t remain
ed for the sons OF Italy to turn the
soil to work. They quietly gained
title, spread the news to their broth
ers across the Atlantic, and shortly
that section of fertility was colonized
by the men who saw more in the soil
below old Mt. Davidson than in the
mines under the hill.
The section about Dayton Is cult
waited and practically owned by Ital
ians. They have made frugal farm
ers. They have turned the mill ponds
and slum ponds to alfalfa and pro-
ducts of worth. The name of the
Dayton potatoe is widely known and
land that was considered but fit for
dumping ground is now almost price
less. 1t was not the effort of the
American that leaves Dayton with
some future. 1t was the Sons of
Italy who turned the sod and instead
of the good old town being absolutely
deserted it will continue to be on the
map through its agricultural resources
The fight that has been put up by
the old town was a game one. Every
technicality was used: the courts hav
decided against the town on the river,
but it will remain a thriving village
in spite Of its loss.
History is made by such moves ~
has taken place in Lyon County and |
in few years the county seat will be
but a memory and rank along with |
old Washoe City, Aurora, and half
score of other history moves that
have taken place.
Dayton will remain on the map and
the new county seat at Yerington will
be ranked as one of the camps with a |
great future So the wheels go

| The removal OF the records OF Lyon
the new County seat, will take place
on Monday The law creating the
new county seat goes into effect on
that day. Its the saddest day in the
history OF one OF the oldesr towns III
Nevada.
Dayton at one time was considered
one of the liveliest camps i'll Western
Nevada. Not ony was it selected as
the county seat of Lyon County, but
from a milling point it was consider
ed ideal. The old Comstock was flour
ishing and Dayton offered habour
where the ores could be treated with
water power. Big milling plants were
erected and hundreds of thousands of
tons of ore were treated at this point
Old Joe Douglass was among those
who recognized the vantage point
and secured mill site and turned
out tons of bullion. On every pound
of ore that he crushed he exacted his
royalty. He left Dayton when the
milling ceased with more money than
the mining companies.
Other mills were erected at and
near Dayton and thousands of dollars
were paid to men who worked under
the old hand labor system before la
Dor saving devices were introduced.
The payday at Dayton was one of
the heaviest in this section of the
state.
During the time of this prosperity
and vast milling millions vi tons of
tailings were sent down rhe river.
This was before cyanide was known.
The value of such. tailings to-day
would have made several miilionaires. |
1t was lost like many an other oppor-
tunity in the days of gold and boom.
During the latter days of milling
some tailings were saved. They have
been converted into coin and the land
scraped free 1t is now in potatoes |

There are no new developments in
regard to the threatened Western Pa

tween the general officers of the West
ern Pacific and the grievance com
mittee of the various railroad orders,
but no agreement was reached. Yes
terday another conference was held
but if any agreement was reached it
is not known 1t is still believed,
however, that an amicable adjust
ment will be made of the difference
between the railroad and its employ
ees and that a strike will be averted

KEY HOUSE TO GO.
Historic Mansion in Georgetown to
Be Raced in Spring.

The Francis Scott Key house, at 35ts
NJ street northwest, in which the author
Of The Star Spangled Banner" was
born and lived many years. will be
closed tomorrow, and early IN the spring
will be torn down to make way for a
modern store building.
The failure of the Francis Scott Key
Memorial Association TO raise sufficient
funds with which to make payment for
the property is the cause for the closing
of this historic building. The owners
Hugh L. Taggart and the heirs of the
Ritcnie estate-have demanded that the
sum now due under the contract of sale,
considerably more than 5000 be paid
Immediately.
When the memorial association was
organized. it undertook TO purchase the
house for SIS 200. The contract called
for the payment of $50 per month in
terest. 5000 of the principal at the end
of the first year, and 5000 a year there
after. The attempt to raise the money
by subscription proved to be a failure
despite the wide publicity that was given
the movement.
Congressman Joseph Taggart, of Kan
sas, has recently become interested in
the matter and has told F. S. Key Smith.
Of Washington, a descendant of the song
writer that he will favor a bill providing
for the removal of the old Key mansion
to Rock Creek Park.
