UNDESIRABLE IN
MANY RESPECTS
WHY BOARD OF EDUCATION
SHOULD RECONSIDER LOCA-
TION OF SCHOOL BUILDING.

The grand jury went into ses-
sion Tuesday and filed q partial re-
port of its findings, Thursday, after
visiting in body the site of the pros
pective county high school building.
AS a result of the jury's delibera-
tions and investigations, three per-
sons are indicted on various charges,
and an indictment" is also returned
against the proposed school house
site as decided on by a majority of
the county board of education. Fol-
lowing the filing of the partial report.
the jury adjourned until next Tes-
day, when further matters of impor-
tance are to be taken up.
The indictments returned are as
follows James Potter, charged with
murder; Frank Kessler, charged with
assault with intent to do great bodily
harm; Dan Melich charged with in
tent to do bodily harm. No indict-
ment was found against George
Gruska, charged with assaulting
John Endenstrom with deadly wea-
pom, the evidence not being sufficient
to hold the respondent, and he was
discharged.
The jury finding against the
school house site Is summed up in
the following:
We examined the proposed site
of the county high school building
and think it undesirable for the fol-
lowing reasons:
1. 1t is situated on a ridge
east of the city cemetery where the
students and faculty will look out
on Gods acre" where sleep the
dead, and the scene is not an inspir-
ing one for the younger generation
| hunting for the bulls eye of know
ledge to better fit them for the duties
of this life.
2. 1t is on a wind swept ridge
at VI Hcdi the lHOunln OF N1nQy
Canyon, where the elements have
clean sweep to mar the pleasures of
those attending the school;
3. To reach it one must cross
mud fiat in approaching the build
ing from the west and north during
the rainy seasons;
a. In our judgment the soil is
not rich or deep enough to grow
shade, grass or flowers, without max
ing new soil; Therefore,
Be it Resolved, That we respect
fully suggest and recommend to
the county board of education the
adyisability of receding from it's
present plans and select a site less
Objectionable, and
Be ii further resolved. That
we recommend that a mass meeting
be called to devise ways and means
of providing another location, thus
enabling the board of education to
spend the amount of the bonded in
debtedness. to-wit, $4,000 in con-
structing a building and equipping il

high school building TO be placed
upon the court house grounds and
the lmpracticability of purchasing
a suitable location near the center of
the town of Ely. it was necessary to
locate the school on the outskirts of
the town. The site which the board
of education finally selected was
chosen for the following reasons:
1. II is within five hundred feet
of a station of the Nevada Northern
railroad.
2. II has excellent drainage.
3. The ground is a firm gravel
and foundations can be put in very
cheaply.
4. II is closer to the center of
school population than any other
available site.
5. The building will be In a
slightly and commanding location.
6. Six acres of land could be
purchased for a nominal sum.
7. There is no danger from
floods.

up of the very best material for
the positions that can be found
In our city. 1t will eliminate the
bitterness of the past few years
from our city campaign as 1t repre-
sents the conservative element

reasonable economy. but also favor
doing something for the better
ment of our city.

les. taxpayers In our city. He has
been identified with everything that
has ever been done for the better
ment of our city and valley. and
orally OF his means and time in all
work for their upbuilding. Both as
q business man and honorable pub
lie spirited citizen he Is eminently
qualified for the position and Lamar
could not do better than to elect
him.
The positions OF clerk and treas
urer are now elective offices for
the first time in Lamar, and the

Sacramento, Cal. Jan. 24.--State
Senator J. B. Sanford, democratic ma
tional committeeman of California, IN
troduced & resolution in the senate
TO-DAY commencing L. S Senator
d. Works, republican progressive.
The resolution recites that Senator
Works is a big, brainy man and mas
refused to be big sticked.' 1t com
mends his favorable position on the
question of limiting the presidential
term to six years. 1t further urges
the passage by congress of an act to
that effect.
Two years ago Senator SANFORD III
troduced a resolution for the recal!
of Senator Works. Since then works
has made speech declaring against
the conduct of the progressive party
in California and has been called up
on by various progressive leaders to
resign.
What action the senate, composed
of 80 republicans and 10 democrats,
and which has strong progressive
majority, will take on the resolution
cannot be foretold.
