SALMAGUNDI

Thanksgiving day passed off very
quietly in town. The sun hardly
shown through the clouds anu the
da vas raw and cold with occas-
iqnal fiurries of hail. 1t was just
the kind of weather that kept peo-
lie indoors.
W.. j. Woods, who was thrown
from his horse while on the way
home from Elko last Monday,
died at the Boiling hospital Wednes-
day night at IL o'clock. His fun
eral took place from Keyser's chap
ell at o'clock this afternoon.
Mrs. EmEca Van Denmark was
found dead in her room in Virginia
City, Wednesday morning. She
was fully dressed and lying across
the bed wnen found. Her death is
said to have been due to alcoholism
as she had been drinking heavily
on Tuesday. She was native of
o. Dayton, Nevada, aged 81 years.
Grand Master Carter received a
hearty welcome from Elko Odd
Fellows on his official visit to the
lodge Wednesday night. There was
a good attendance of Brothers to
greet him at the lodge meeting,
after which the Rebekahs swarmed
in With good things to eat. Eating
and social conversation held sway
until 1890 when those present re-
tired to their homes, we'll satisfied
with the evenings work.
A. Jack the Hugger, is abroad in
Fallon, and if he only knew it, his
life will he placed in jeopardy
every time he essays his role in
Fallon for the local lassies have a
kick in either hand that is really a
sleep dealing potion. To attempt
to become demonstrative with our
Fallon feminity will only be brook
ing disaster. We haven't found
out who you are Jack, but if this
should happen to fall under your
glance take the scribe's bunch and
cut it.-Fallon Standard.
Republican respect for the civil
service when it benefits republicans
is clearfy-shown by one of the last
ofiaial acts of President Taft in
placing all the fourth class post
masters, 95 per cent Of whom were
republicans, under the civil SER
vices law. It's very wild republi-
can that will not contend that this
was done for the benefit of the SER
vice, when the fact is that it was
done merely to keep republicans in
Office. That's all.
A report was current in town
last night and this morning that
Ralph Lopez, the Mexican who kill
ed three peace officers and fellow
countrymen near Salt Lake last
Friday had been killed near Wend.
over yesterday by a posse. Inquiry
a. he Western Pacific telegraph
Office this forenoon proved the re-
port groundless. Word came in
Wednesday that a heavily armed
Mexican supposed to be Lopez, had
been seen near Proctor, but this
report proved untrue.

cepting such as are propelled by pad

Parents Meeting.

On Thursday evening of next week
there will be held a teachers-parents'
meeting in the assembly room of the
high school.
The object of this meeting is several
fold. 1t is meant to give the parents
of high school pupils an opportunity to
meet the high school teachers; oppor-
tunity will be given to those attending
to have explained to them the stand
ards which the school is working to-
ward; the case of individual pupils may
be talked over informally, between
parent and teacher. 1t is is felt that
by means of this meeting a stronger
spirit of cooperation between home
and school will be fostered; that ex-
plantations offered may clear away
doubts in the minds of the schools
patrons and that suggestions from its
patrons may lead to a better school.
A program will be rendered, refeesh-
ments will be served by the domestic
science classes.
The attendance of every person in
the school district who has the welfare
of the school at heart is earnestly re-
quested.

BIG ENGINEERING PROJECT FIN
ISHED.
Water Turned Into the Los Angeles
AQueduct.
MoJAvE, CAL, Sept. rs, 1913.

MoJAvE, CAL, Sept. rs, 1918.
Editor Reporter: There have been
strenuous times here for the past few
| days; have been along the aqueduct
with Chief Engineer Mulholland, Me-
chanical Supt. Mckay ano Division En-
gineer Van Norman, and Tuesday last
water was turned into the aqueduct for
the first time at the intake 240 miles
from Los Angeles. We have been fol-
lowing it along and installing patrol
men, IL of them, and tonight the water
has reached Mojave. Have only turned
II enough to make depth of six feet
Capacity will be 103 feet. which with
its velocity will mean APO second feet,
l. e., 420 cubic feet per second). The
water will reach Fairmont reservoir to-
morrow morning; when that is filled it
will be let through the water tower in
to the Elizabeth tunnel five miles
long, and passing beneath Elizabeth
lake soon enters the San Fernando res
ervoir and thence into Los Angeles.
We have been looking forward to the
turning in of the water for long time,
consequently it is a great event with
US. Everything works like clockwork
and certainly great credit is due the
men who conceived and carried to a
finish an undertaking second only to
the construction of the Panama canal.
The total cost will be about $25, 900, 900,
the estimated cost being $23, OOO,O 900.
We are going to celebrate in Novem-
Der. There is much more work to be
done in the way of power plants and
distribution; about $6,OO0,00O will be
required for this work.
Come out and see the aqueduct, it is
worth the trip. When Chief Engineer
Mulholland first conceived the idea, he
was at one time going over the pro-
posed location with John r. Freeman,
the most eminent hydraulic engineer in
the u. S. When the latter looked over
the formidable tumble of wrinkles in
Mother Earth's face, known as the
''jawbone country he said, THAT is
rough and difficult country for canal
digging" Mr.. Mulholland replied,
"But we are not going to dig on top,
the aqueduct will go under all that,
and when you are underground the
character of the surface is negligible.
When you buy piece of pork you
don't have to eat the bristles." Free
man saw the point and was not dis
turbed further by the rough appear
ance of the country.

Nationwide Observance Sun
day, October 10.

(St. Paul Pioneer Press, Aug. 81. 1919
Many races and classes have been
oppressed and prosecuted in the his
tory Of civilization. To gain their
rights and to obtain Justice. many Of
these races have resorted to the torch
and the dagger. We, the Negroes Of
America, feel that we are not OBJ
tanning our rights and are being un-
justly Disseminated against, but we
have a new way by which we know
that our conditions will be bettered.
We will not try violence, but prayer" !"
Many Unjust Laws, Says Francis.
This is the statement made yester-
day by w. T. Francis, lawyer, prom
inent among st. Paul Negroes. Ac-
cording to Mr.. Francis, unjust legisla-
tion is being passed continually
against the rights of the colored race.
Leaders of the movement say 1t is to
combat this injustice that the Negroes
all over the country are setting aside
the third Sunday in October for pray
er. Give us a manifestation from
heaven that this oppression will
cease" is their plea.
Will Be Countrywide Movement.
Churches in nearly every state in
the country are setting aside the day.
1t is expected that the national color
ed Baptist convention, which Is in ses-
sion in Nashville this week and the
Iowa conference Of the African Meth
odist church at Evanston, ILL.,, the lat
ter part Of September will officially
designate the third Sunday in Octo-
ber to be observed in all the churches
represented at the two conferences.
Word has been received from Balti-
more that the Ministers Alliance of
African Churches of Maryland, which
