On account OF cleanup day yester-
day and events following, many were
unable to attend the presentation of

great many who were unable to at
tend last night.

piece and is one of the best Kalem
Irish productions. The scenes are
true to life. and those who have seen
the other films of these famous play
ers on their celebrated Irish tour,
should not miss the last opportunity
to witness the best of all.
In addition there are two Selig COM
edies that are funny in the extreme.
For an interesting program. the show

equalled

OPEN SEWER
A DISGRACE
To CITY
Needs Attention for
Health Protection

One thing was brought most wildly
to notice by Cleanup Day and that
is the disgraceiul eyesore, the open
sewer on Telegraph Street, east OF
Carson Street. 1t is a disgrace for
anv city to have within its limits an
open sewer OF this sort. 1T is moth
ing more nor less than sewer, with
out covering: catchall for all sorts
OF foul refuse, and a decided menace
TO the health of the residents along
the portion where it is uncovered.
On the west side OF Carson Street
and for one block on the east side the
city maintains and keeps this sewer
we'll covered. diligently renewing the
covering whenever necessary, while
the remainedr is LETT open, a menace
TO the residents and a disgraceful
sight.
Some of the property owners on
the banks of this sewer endeavor to
keep the immediate sections near
them clean. while above nothing is
done, the consequences are that with
the first water the refuse from above
is carried down and lands in the
places that have been cleaned.
To be convinced of the menace to
health of this eyesore it is only nee
essary for anyone to take a walk
along it to-day and see for themselves.
1t should be covered. or better still, a
cement sewer made. even if only few
feet a year can be accomplished. and
if for any reason it cannot be covered
the city should at least keep it clean,
The taxpayers on the east side help
paw for the maintenance Of that por-
ton on the west side of Carson street
and receive no benefit whatever
There is no excuse whatever for a
sewer to be allowed to remain in the
| condition that this one is.

About half dozen different parties
are waiting for power on farms about
this section. Wills Brougher is among
the number. He has about 80 acres
OF grain and alfalfa in and as it needs
water this season he is anxious to get
his pumps going Ira Winters is in
the same fix: the brewing plant is be-
ing fitted with juice, while Dick
Bright wants lights at his place and
several others are held up for the time
being.
All this means rush order among
the electricians Crews can be seen
on every side doing work and material
is shy. In the case of the Electric
Power Company they are out hust-
ling material on every side. Poles or
dered months ago from the north
have failed to arrive; transformers
and wire have been delayed and it is
keeping Tom Kearney sweating, while
Brown and Lennon are hustling all
the material they can.

Rush Orders Are On
For Electric Power
Company Doing its Best to Land
the Goods. Farmers Want Water

At the prison farm there is a rush
order on and material is hard to gath
er in this instance Fortunately the
North Carson people had their order
in before the rush came and are go
ing ahead merrily at the mine where
power is used to drive the mills and
compressor.
Within the next two weeks half
dozen irrigation plants will be in mo-
ton in this county, which tells vol
umes in the way Of reclamation pro-
jects. The rush orders on the part OF
the farmers come from the fact that
it is the dryest season SO far known
in this section of the state and while
there has been an abundance of wind
hardly a drop of moisture has fallen
during the entire spring. A number
of the farmers on water ways have
refused to put in full crops, as they
realize that water will be shy for their

Circus Day is Missed
By The Home People

Six carloads OF people from this
section left this morning for Reno
where they will take in the circus and
do little shopping on the side. The
word circus has "a charm all OF its
own and the one regret Is that the
big tent show was not pulled of III
this city. For years the tented peo-
pie came here, received a huge pat
ronage, drew people to this city from
n distance OF forty miles, and while
they took away their share OF the
money it brought big crowds to town
and the merchant and the business
men benefited i'll proportion. In
stead OF this being the case now the
money that went out this morning
don't come back, or any portion OF it.

FOR II JANE

That there will be perfect play
presented by local talent on next Fri
day evening there is no question. The
members who are to take part in
Jane a real comedy, are working
overtime on rehearsals is admitted.
The plans were originally made by
the Parents and Teachers Association
and have gone so far that it will re-
suit in a delightful evening Of fun and
music. Keep the date in mind as the
home talen deserves a crowded house.

and Reno rakes off the benefit
1t i understood that the local road
does not desire the business. as they
fear the heavy trains on the rails and
general service, and stating that there
is more or less danger i'll handling
the long circus cars.
1t is pretty we'll remembered when
big trains were hauled over the road
TO this city in the years passed and
the circus day was an event. The next
time there is chance for circus the
local road had better get busy and see
that the show men and the home peo-
pie are accommodated, as it means a
lively day in Carson, and we certainly
need it, This being side-tracked off
the map is not a pleasant chronicling.

a candidate for commissioner of
safety. Everybody in Colorado
knows Carl Linquist, but every
body dosen't know that he is a
candidate for office. He has served
in the city council and in the state
legislature. During these years of
public service not one crooked act
is charged against him that we
have yet heard of. His record is
clean. OF those who know him. no
commendation is necessary. Those
who do not, need only to investi-
gate to be convinced of these facts.

ness in Denver since 1887, and en-
ploys 145 people.
