 Litter Renders Streets Untidy.
 Advocates of Danielson keeping up it's reputation as a spotless town are constantly annoyed by the litteTing of the streets in the business section with heralds and various kinds of refuse and litter from numerous sources. More frequently than should be the case, they contend, the streets in the shopping section are made to look like a dump, and there is constant agita- ton for some regulation that will be the means of preventing the abuses that result in the borough having the appearance of being lax in good Housekeeping" methods. No one gains very much by causing the disrepute while much could be gained by pre- venting it.

Friday morning about 2 o'clock the stable of Dr. H. A. Sherman of Main street caught fire and in a few minutes was burned to the ground. The auto mobile which the doctor kept there was also destroyed.
 At 130 the doctor returned from making a late call, and, following his custom, looked out of the back door overlooking the stable to see that ev- erything was all right before retiring Everything was apparently as 1t should be- At o'clock the building was in ruins.
 The fire was discovered by Mrs. Della Weaver, who reused her son Leon. who immediately gave the alarm The fire company was called out and a stream was soon being played on the adjoining buildings, several of which caught fire. This, however, was more or less easily extinguished. The gar age of Dr. w. M. Hill caught fire and was badly burned, but the car was run out and escaped injury. The loss of JDr Sherman was lessened by a small insurance. The Episcopal church near by also caught, but being a stone building was only burned on the roof, and the blaze was soon extinguished. The f1remen did good work in saving the adjoining buildings. Had the wind been westerly. it is thought everything in the lower part of the town would have been lost.

HOW WILL NEVADA BENEFIT?

Nevada is to spend $4,000 to make
exhibits. build houses, etc, at the
two 1915 fairs to be held in California
in honor OF the completion OF the
Panama Canal. One of these eXpoSi-
tions is to be held in San Francisco
and the other in San Diego. 1t will
certainly be very nice for Nevada to
have nice building and a nice eX
hibit of her agricultural and mineral
resources each of these shows, and.
no doubt. her display will attract wide
attention A few who visit California
from the east may drift over into Ne
vada during the expositions, but the
majority, if they are actually looking
for farm homes, will stay i'll Califor
mia. The thing for Nevada to do is to
have some sort OF organization by
1915 which will stop the travellers to
the west in our State and show them
our possibilities. Nevada is very little
known in the east even at this day.
and is not very favorably known at
that. No railroad route crossing the
State from east to west or from north
to south shows the State to adVan-
tage. The beauty spots and the fer
tile valleys are not seen by the tour
ist nor the traveller who simply uses
the railroads as mode OF convey
ance. The thing for Nevada to do Is
to get the home seekers off the trains
poinq through and take them by auto
mobile to such points as Starr Valley.
LaInoille Valley. Huntington Valley.
Humboldt Vallev Paradise Valley.
Carson Valley. Smith VALLEY, Mason
Valley and other points. They can
then see for themselves what orr
State is like. On these trips they could
also be shown some of our PROMISING
and producing mining localities. Lit
erature in plentiful quantities should
be furnished showing the productive
capacity of our soil and mineral sec
tions. and it should be placed in the
