WATER SUPPLY OF
WELLS THREATENED

Wells is confronted by very seri-
Gus situation--one that will tax the
wits of its citizens and cause many
an uneasy hour before the problem is
solved, according to the Nevada State
Herald. which says that Wednesday
afternoon telegram was received
from Governor Boyle, as follows:
Have been advised by Southern
Pacific officials that water service in
Wells may be discontinued sometime
in near future. To put you in posi-
tion to meet situation, have asked
Wells delegation to introduce bill
permitting you to bond for municipal
plant after referendum. Will send
you copies of bill and suggest that a
representative come here early next
week, that you and legislature may
be fully advised"
Continuing. the Herald says: I'M
mediately after the receipt of the
startling information that the 8. p,
which has furnished water to Wells
for many years, and which owns the
only available supply, has given no.
tice that it will discontinue the serv-
ice at an early date, arrangements
were made for special meeting of
the Wells Commercial Club, and that
evening at a well-attended meeting
the matter was discussed in many of
its phases. While it was too early to
take any definite action or outline
any plan of procedure, it was the.
unanimous sense of the meeting that
representative be sent to Carson,
as suggested by Governor Boyle, and
it was agreed that Hon. H. H. Coryell
be named to take charge of the mat
ter, and he will leave tomorrow even
ing for the capital.
Not until the return of Mr.. Coryell
will it be possible to know just what
action must be taken to provide Wells
with water. However, some such
method of procedure as organizing
under the town government act, the
calling of special election for the
purpose of voting on a district bond
issue and the sale of bonds to raise
money for municipal plant, is prob
able.

PERSHINCLES TAKE
HOME THE BACON

On the departure of last evenings
train there was one of the liveliest
and happiest punches of men that
has pulled out of Carson in some
time. This was the Lovelockers, the
citizens of Pershing county. In order
that the people at home might know
that they are delivering the goods,
they carried home full slab of Ne
vada bacon, properly embellished
with the record of the fight, the vote,
and the result.
That bacon will be worth some
thing per ounce by the time it gets
to the new county seat. Had there
been anything wetter than plain soda
water the Pershingles would un-
undoubtedly have carried on a cele-
bration that would have made a SEN
atorial election look like thirty cents.

LOCAL VIEWS ON
COUNTY DIVISION

Positive assertions have been heard
in Winnemucca today that a bill had
been introduced in the Legislature
yesterday, at the instigation of Love-
lockers. to repeal the referendum law
passed in 1915, providing that any
county can rescind any action of the
Legislature If majority so vote.
Necessary steps consist of securing a
petition signed by at least ten per
cent of Humboldt county voters, ask
ing for a referendum, in which case
the matter would be voted upon at
the next general election. If forty per
cent of the voters sign the petition an
immediate election can be called. The
special telegram to The Silver State
today would seem to imply no bill to
Men who are in position to know
say the referendum is entirely pos
sible. They claim the Legislature has
disunited the county and that by the
pirit of the referendum law the peo-
pie, always supposed to have the last
voice, can reunite the county il they
o vote. 1t is said the matter is sub
ject to the referendum whether a
-ounty government is formed in Love-
'ock or not
But first Governor Boyle must sign
he division bill. If he doesn't there
AN be no division, of course. Tele-
Grams today indicate he will take the
natter up next Monday. 1t is under
itood he has served notice he will not
sign the bill until he has heard both
3ides of the story, the chief considera-
ions being the economic advisability
If dividing Humboldt county and the
constitutionality of the bill as passed.
For some reason rush telegram
was sent by Winnemuccans in Car
son this morning advising the chief
members of our delegation to return
70 Carson Immediately. This is
contemplated attempt TO repeal the
referendum law. Consequently the
mainstays of Winnemucca's delega-
ton will return tonight.
Asked how the division bill was put
over so easily. Attorney Brandon said
this morning he believed ii was by
the trading" system-'you vote for
my bill and I'll vote for yours"
Altogether, division of Humboldt
county is as yet by no means an ac-
complished fact. Lovelock has won
both rounds so far, but indications
are now that long road has yet to
be travelled before Humboldt county
is divided.

.StNA1k RECESSED
TODAY;;MANY SICK

CARSON CITY. March 15.-Divi-
sion bill is now in Governor Boyles
office. Can learn nothing regarding
efforts to repeal referendum law.
Such legislation will have to go
through the Senate.
The Senate adjourned this morning
for lack of quorum. due to members
being sick.
Considered impossible to get any
thing through the Assembly. Farris
and Tullis on the job. Efforts to put
a bill through the Assembly yesterday
to straighten out the division bill sec
tions referring to bond Indebtedness
and the election of senators were de-
feated, Assemblymen Farris and Tul-
lis objecting.
The Senate suspended the unani-
nous consent rules and the bill
passed without objection. 1t was for
warded to the Assembly today.
fight that started in the house
yesterday morning over Pershing
county wound up in the Senate during
the day and for rapid work the men,
bers of the lower house will have to
remove their hats in the presence Of
senators, says this mornings Reno
Journal.
Stannard asked unanimous consent
to introduce a bill to amend the
Pershing county bill. Tullis and Far
ris objected, and that settled it. This
was the finish as far as the Assembly
was concerned.
In the afternoon Senator Friedman
asked unanimous consent to introduce
the same bill Ducey objected. The
Pershing county senator then moved
to suspend the rule of unanimous con-
sent temporarily. This requires a
two-thirds vote, and he got it. Then
he introduced his bill.
The measure first provided for the
taking up of the bonded Indebtedness
of Humboldt county along with
Pershing. Pershing assumes nine per
cent more of the debt than the old
| county.
Pershing takes one assemblyman
and Humboldt two. This settled an
other dispute as to legislative repre-
sentation Then Humboldt is to have
one senator. The present senator
(Friedman) will continue to act for
Pershing county until the end of his
term.
When the bill was explained it was
placed on third reading and passed,
Ducey not voting.

ASSESSMENT WORK

Owners Of unpatented mining claims
are advised that assessment work
must be performed during the year
1919, says the Nevada State Herald.
The resolution pending in Congress
to extond the period whereby the
owner could signify his intention Of
no, doing the work, failed of passage
during the late Sc, sion of Congress,
SO therefore the ruling that prevailed
for the years 1917 and 1918 il abro-
gated. This matter is partially ex-
planned in a letter written by Senator
Charles B. Henderson. 1t has since
been learned that the resolution died
in the House of Representatives dur
ing the last hours Of the session, al
though it had passed the Senate. The
letter f,om Senator Henderson Is as
follows:
Il beg to advise that the usual as
sessment work will probably have to
be performed for the year 1919. My
measure eliminating this work was
passed by the Senate, but from what
am able to learn the House will
refuse it. Also, the time is so short
that it is most unlikely that we could
get this legislation passed in the
House"
