CHIMNEY SECTION
!. OF FIRE ORDINANCE

Changing of ward boundaries was
brought up at the meeting of the City
Council last night, the Idea being to
SO apportion the wards that an even
division of the number of voters in
each ward might result. Although
law requires wards to be so divided,
it was decided last night not to enter
into the task at this time, reasons
being given that there is nothing to
be gained by so doing now and that
the city treasury will not stand the
expense.
Permission to build garage for E.
Reinhart Company was requested by
A. McShee of the contracting firm of
Anderson & McShee. The petition was
for permission to build small gal
vanized iron building on the lot oppo-
site the E. Reinhart Company store.
in block X. Petition was rejected by
the council for the reason that the
proposed site is within the fire limits.
The petition of George Weber for
permission to remove a three-room
cabin from the end of West Fifth
street to lot on E. Third street, "op-
posite the old brewery" was granted,
providing the building is not left at
any one point on the streets of Winnie
mucca for more than twenty-four
hours at time.
1t was again pointed out that one
brick chimneys are being erected, in
spite of the ordinance forbidding the
same. A decision was reached to
amend the chimney section of the fire
ordinance to allow one-brick. plas-
tered chimneys to be constructed out
side the fire limits This will be done
as soon as money is available for the
purpose, it was said, and builders will
not be molested in the meantime II
they build one-brick chimneys out
side the fire limits. The present spe-
cifications are to stand for all CHM
neys erected within the fire limits.
A special meeting will be held by
the City Council just as soon after
the Legislature adjourns as is practi-
cal, the purpose being to consider the
city budget.

LACK OF ROADS IS
CAUSING Big LOSS

James Dillon, mauager sf d. ID.
Defenbaugh's store at DEMO, is an
arrival in Winnemuoca, bringing with
him the distinction of having driven
the first automobile over the road
since the recent storms. He says it
il absolutely necessary that Winnie
mucca and Humboldt county build a
road north if the residents there are
to be expected to do their trading
here. Right now, he says, most of the
buying is being done in Crane, Ore
gon. Altogether he is a much dis
gusted man and says the roads are as
near impossible as they can be and a
car get over them at all.
In this connection the plight of the
stage drivers is interesting. One is
said to have three good automobiles
tied up for repairs made necessary by
bucking the bad roads, has three cars
stuck along the road and has had to
use everything available from trucks
to Fords to keep his mail contract.
1t has been necessary to use mule
team over the ridge at Howard, leay-
ing the automobiles there and going
through with the mules. The road be-
tween Sodhouse and Kane Springs is
said to be in terrible condition. For
two months no effort has been made
to haul trunks, etc., from DEMO and
the first have just been brought
through.
The Toll House-Paradise Hill road
has been closed, making it necessary
to go by way of Willow Point. Thus
a trip which should require from
seven to eight hours has been taking
from eighteen hours to-not getting
there at all. The Miller & Id teams
are just now ready to again attempt
the trip here for supplies.

". P. Trains ARE
TO Be RESTORED

Conditions on the Western Pacific
railroad, so far as employment is con-
cerned have greatly improved during
the past month and indications point
toward continued betterment. 1t is
officially explained that the reason for
not running orange trains over the
road with shipments destined for Salt
Lake is that no ice is available at
Portola this year. All other freight
originating in California, west of
Oroville, and routed east over the
Union Pacific, is now hauled over the
Western Pacific to Carlin, going from
there direct to Ogden over Southern
Pacific tracks.
An important announcement. al
though not yet official, is that trains
Nos. 3 and 4 of the Western Pacific
will in all probability be replaced
along about the first of May. A def
mite announcement is that observation
cars will be restored to Western Pa
c1fic trains Nos. II and 72 on April l..
There is no change in the matter of
passenger service between Winnie
mucca and stations as far east as Car
lin. Railroad officials declare that
train No. 20 on the Southern Pacific
takes care of this business satisfac-
torily at the time of night the West
ern Pacific train 72 passes through
here, and it is desirable to maintain
a fast schedule for that through train.
No. 70 is the only eastbound train
on the Western Pacific. hence great
part of the travel is over the South
ern Pacific anyway, and the higher
ups do not believe the stopping of
ticket selling over the w. p. TO points
between here and Carlin works any
great inconvenience on the public.

ALIENS LOSE EVERY
. CITIZENSHIP right

Orders made in district court this
morning, upon motion of C.. A. Ball,
United States naturalization examiner.
will forever debar eight aliens, who
have, during the last half-dozen years,
made their declarations OF intention,
from becoming citizens of the United
States. They may acquire no home
stead rights, nor prove up on lands
already taken; neither may they Sc
cure privileges on the public range.
There was no forewarning of the
action of the government in these
matters. The cause of the action is
refusal to serve the United States gov
ernment in war time. The naturali-
zation examiner arrived in Winnie
mucca with his petitions to the district
court all ready, with evidence to sup
port them, and the orders were made.
The names of the aliens against
whom the orders were issued today
are: Salvador Martinez, Estiban LA
mas, Andres Achabel, Masimino
Eehandia, Jose Yraguen, Raimundo
Erquiga, Basilio Gorrino, and Pedro
Marcuerquiaga.
A portion of the charge of the nat
uralization examiner in each case is
as follows:
THAT the said alien, at time when
the government of the United States
was at war with a sovereignty other
than that to which the said alien
owed allegiance, and after the said
alien had actually been inducted into
the United States army, and was serv-
ing as a soldier therein, under oath,
H. affidavit form, withdrew his decla-
ration of intention and claimed relief
from liability to military service in
further under oath declared that he,
the said alien, had made the declara-
ton to become a citizen of the United
States herein referred to, and that
il was well known to him that under
Federal statute, to wit, the act OF
Congress approved July 9, 1918. his
act of claiming relief from liability
to military service in the armies OF
the United States operated to with
draw and cancel his declaration of in
tention, and forever debarred him
from becoming citizen of the United
States"
The order of the district court, en-
tered in the case of each of the above
named aliens, was as follows:
Upon consideration of the forego-
ing petition it is hereby ordered and
decreed that the declaration of inten-
ton of the alien named in the records
o. the court be Cancelled and held for
nanght. and that he is forever de-
barred from becoming a citizen of the
United States; and it is further or
dered that the clerk of this court
shall forward copy of this order te
the Bureau of Naturalization, United
States Department of Labor, at Wash
| ington. DC, and shall attach copy
thereof to the declaration Of intention
of record in this court"
