People Of this city do not realize
what a wonderful swimming hole lies
in the river at the Eshelman dam just
above town. The stream widens here
until It IS about half a block across
and water from six inches to IL feet
in depth can be found at the pleasure
OF the bather. Swift water. and still
water is there at ones toe-tipe, you
might say, and it is just cool enough
for delightful refreshment. Swim.
ming fans are many, but we venture
TO say that their number would be
double If everyone knew of this ex-
cellent place for water pastimIng.
The question Is, having disposed Of
the Steninger Contempt matter when
are we to begin hearing about the
trials of the commissioners cases?
The delay in these cases is rapidly
turning the whole affair into a fiasco.
The public Is getting tired OF hearing
about this remote corner and that
even more remote angle of the affair
through the newspapers, as well as
feeling the monotony of hearing one
side OF the story shouted to the
housetops and nothing of the other.
For heavens sake cut out all the
sparring and put on the real battle!
The public is waiting for the facts,
not the personal feelings of the par
Elephants. Even now the people are
beginning to think that If somebody
hollered Scatter" the whole pack
would abandon the carcass and run.
Tomorrow evening at $50 and
continuing until 1880 the Blko Home
Guard band will give an open air con.
cert from the lawn OF the courthouse.
This is the first open air concert to
be given by an Elko band in the his.
tory of the city and will no doubt be
of wide interest and draw a large
crowd to hear it. The program to be
given Is as follows:
