RAILWAY COMPANY TO
REDUCE TRAIN SERVICE
After November 10th But Two Round
Trips Weekly Will Be Made

The SENTINEL is officially informed
that the Eureka Nevada Railway is pre-
pairing a new time card to become eff.
fective November 10, 1919, whereby il
will operate but two trains weekly each
way between Palisade aud Eureka dur.
ing the Winter months.
Trains will leave Palisade on Mon.
days aud Fridays. and Eureka on Tues.
days and Saturdays. running on the
same time as at present.
General Manager Sexton advises that
should the Post Office Department solicit
the railway company to carry the mail
and be willing to pay his company at
the rate Of $42.75 per mile per annum
or about one-half of the amoun now
paid the stage line for q 33 hour service.
that b tri- weekly train service will
be resumed and the trip made in about
seven hours. regardless of the season
but he says that under present circum.
stances the business offered or the ne.
cessity does not justify a service of more
than W trips weekly during the Win
ter months.

TO The VOTER OF
EOREkA COUNTY

We believe that the law does not in.
tend that the County High School should
be under the supervision of any district
board OF School Trustees; for the Com.
mon School. under the supervision Of
that Board of School Trustees. might
enjoy privileges not granted to other
districts in the county. The law, as we
read it. requires two separate and dis
tinct boards for the management Of the
local district school affairs and for con-
Quoting the County High School that
may be located within the bounds OF
said school district. The other two
gentlemen soliciting your Votes are al
ready members of the Board of School
Trustees, hence, that there may be no
confusion of school affairs, we offer
ourselves as candidates for members of
the County Board of Education.
Respectfully submitted,
