AFTER BRICK
CONTRACT

George Brown. who has been at
Lake Tahoe looking over a brick
contract, has returned to this city.
While there he had a chance to re-
view the plans of the big hotel that
is to be erected at Rock Point, near
the McFaul home. The building is
to be one of the largest and most
modern on the Lake. 1t is a case of
brick or wood. If brick can be fur
nished near the price of timber the
building will go up Of that material.
1t is a case of close figuring that
is worrying Brown.
The California parties who are to
place this new hotel in commission,
hope to have the walls up before the
close of fall. They have a crew lev
cling and making ready for
foundations. From the plans it is
to be a two-story hotel spreading
over considerable ground and will
have the advantage of the fine
water that comes through the Nc
Faul ranch.
Samples of clay taken from a near
by point burned into excellent brick.
As wood and water are handy it
would seem brick would figure
largely in the construction. The
matter is to be decided within a few
days.-carsen Appeal

To Select
Candidates

There is a strong feeling in the
political parties of Douglas county
for the selection of two non-partisan
candidates for assemblymen and
run them without opposition. The
meeting held a short time ago was
not well attended by Democrats but
they have since been made to see
the advantage of such a movement
and it is now planned to hold meet
ing for the purpose of selecting two
men. The date of the meeting has
not yet been set but will be held
soon after the primaries.
A good many candidates have an
nounced their willingness to accept
the office on silver platter and are
laying wires which will count for
naught. To receive the office with
out campaign fight will bring out
the two best qualified men in Doug
las county. They are the men the
people want.

building. The mill is now equipped
but not with the machinery that will
be necessary for the successful
handling of the ore. 1t is planned
to install complete modern equip
ment just as soon as the ore bodies
enlarge and justify the outlay. In
a test run of Is tons of ore through
2 stamp mill S317 was saved.
Even with this splendid showing
Mr.. Carman places the values at
SO per ton and when the lodges
come together, as present indica-
tions point, this mine will become a
paying one to her owners.
Some two years ago N. Mcmillan,
mining engineer, came-ut 1rom
Chicago and exported tbs PROPERTY.
His report was favorable on4 and
he approved the work hat is now
being done on the Big Frank.
Mr.. Carman states that it is pext
to impossible to sell mining stock in
the East and for this reason he
could not carry on the work as
rapidly as he had wished for.
Besides mining Mr.. Carman has
turned his hand to farming and at
the Heights, which has an elevation
of 5000 feet has a splendid truck
garden. He has a patch of potatoes
that has not been irrigated this
season yet they could not be exceled.
The hay crop has just been put in
the stack and is sufficient to keep a
span of horses for the season.

WORK PROGRESSING AT
LONGFELLOW Mine

Last Sunday Lex Smith and the
writer made an auto trip to Carman
Heights and incidentally were the
first to pilot car to that section.
E. w Carman and wife arrived
from Cleveland last month and since
that time have been at the Heights,
where the former is in charge of the
Longfellow mine. Work is again
being prosecuted on this property
and it is expected that the ore zone
will be reached within the next 30
or go days.
Work of sinking the shaft son the
Big Frank claim to the 200 foot
level is now under way. Sunday the
miners had reached a depth of l30
feet and are making coed headway'
The shaft is now between walls, the
lodges running east and west, being
feeders to the main ledge which
lies some four feet to the south Of
the shaft at this level. 1t is expect
ed that these lodges will consolidate
at about the $50 foot level, making
one large ore body carrying good
milling ore. The mine is the best
equipped in the Pine Nut mining
district, having a gasoline hoist,
air compressor for the operation of
the air drills, etc.
Should the ledges intersect at the
$50 foot level and carry gold values
of $40 per ton, 40-ton milling plant
will be installed at Carman Heights,
where the company owns a mill

A SKIDOO
BALLOT

At the primary election to be held
September Bird the voter of Douglas
county will be handed a ballot on
which will be found just % names,
the skidoo number. There will be
three parallel columns; the first con-
tains the Democratic candidates.
the middle column the Republicans,
and in the third the Socialists candi-
dates are grouped. AT the head of
each column is a ruled square and
wishing to vote a Democratic ticket
you will stamp an X in the ruled
square at the head of the Demo-
cratic column. This makes a Demo-
crat out of you whether you are or
not and you must not vote for
candidates other than Democrats.
You will have but one choice to
make and that will be for Justice Of
the Supreme Court. p. A. Me-
Carran is an opponent Of A. A. Herr.
The Republicans, likewise, have but
one choice and that is between +. f.
Roberts and A. c. Frohlich for
Representative in Congress. The
remaining 10 candidates Of the three
political parties will not need come
forth with the glad hand and pleas
ant smile until the general election
draws near.
The primary election law in Ne
vada is as useless as a last years
calendar. 1t is a heavy burden on
the taxpayers Of Nevada and is a
political farce of the first water.
1t should be erased from the statute
books of Nevada and that section,
wherein candidates can have their
name placed an the ballot by petition
should become a part Of the general
election laws.

DISEASE
KILL STOCK

During the past year or more
cattle have been dying in consider
able numbers from a disease which
baffled local stockmen. In the
veterinary works it is known as
'red water" A paragraph from
DR.. David Roberts Home Veterin-
arian" reads:
This is a common affection among
cattle in certain localities, and is
more common in Europe than any,
where else. 1t may be caused by
injuries of the back; eating irrrita-
ting plants; being exposed to cold,
damp districts, etc. But the most
common form of red water usually
infects the whole herd. This is the
form that most breeders have to
contend with. The symptoms are
bloody wine, associated with high
fever, usually, and a milking COW
may be troubled with frothy con-
dition of the milk, this having red
dish tinge."
Dr. A. E. Welch has been COM
muuicating with the Nevada State
Veterinarian and with cattle special
lists in the East, and he is competent
to diagnose the disease correctly.
If treated promptly in its early
stages it need not prove fatal

LOOKING
FOR WATER

AS a result of water meeting
held by the farmers of Carson Val
ley several months ago at which
time a formal appeal was made to
the Government as regards storage
reservoirs on the upper Carson river,
E. G. Hopson, Consulting Engineer,
in charge of the government recla-
nation work in the West, with head
quarters at Portland. Oregon, and
w. Cole, reclamation engineer, loca-
ted at Fallon, paid a visit to this
Valley Monday for the purpose of
looking over the situation and be-
come better acquainted with condi-
tons as they really exist. The
gentlemen were met by a body of
farmers who escorted them to the
upper end of the Valley that they
might see the amount of water now
flowing in both forks of the Carson
river. From here they were taken
to the new land recently put under
cultivation by VIM. Dressler which
is irrigated through a storage reser-
voir. They were shown fields of
growing alfalfa that were sage
brush flats until last year. Here
nothing but wire fence divides
alfalfa fields from the dull gray
mantel of sage brush. This made
a striking illustration of the fertility
of our soil, and what the application
of water properly applied will ac-
complish. Mr.. Dressler was compli-
mented upon his achievement.
The government men were made
acquainted with the work carried
on by the Alpine Land & Reservoir
Company. With the aid of maps
they were shown the location of the
reservoirs in Alpine county where
the sCarson river finds its source.
These reservoirs have storage
capacity of 3100 acre feet and this
year they were the means of saving
the second crop from burning up.
The gentlemen were shown the
many thousands of acres of unculti-
waited land in this Valley that but
awaits water to make it productive.
Far back upon the sloping hills to
our east is the best of soil all of
which could be irrigated from the
Carson river if the government
would conserve the flood waters at
the head of the Carson river. There
are to be found some natural reser-
voir sites in that section with an
estimated storage capacity of 200
600 acre feet of water, which would
reclaim all of the arid land in Car
son Valley as well much of the land
