CITY COUNCIL CONSIDERS
SPEED BUGS AND BOOZE

Active interest in the affairs of the
city marked the meeting OF the city
fathers at the regular meeting of
that body last week
The question of speeding on the
city streets was discussed at length
and the city marshal was instructed
10 strictly enforce the law regulating
the speed limit. Several automObil-
lists discussing this action later we're
of the opinion that the condition o.
the streets themselves was such that
watching a speedometer was unnec-
essary. as few individuals possess a
sufficiently rugged constitution TO
withstand the Jar oil a xreater speed
than four miles an hour in Ely.
On motion presented by Council
man love of the Third ward il was
decided 10 install light on the turn
at the foot of Auftman street in front
of the power house This corner at
night is very dark and TO a stranger
dangerous curve.
Alleged 'bootlegging" was con-
tnually referred to. but il did not
appear that tangible evidence was at
hand and City Attorney Eddy de-
clared that under the present or
dinance the licenses of the business
houses under suspicion could not be
cancelled until the proprietors had
been convicted of a breach of the
prohibition law. 1t was reported
that an ordinance would be drawn
giving more liberty in this matter.
An ordinance TO permit the licens-
ing of gambling games made legal
by the state law was introduced by
Councilman Wallace which was pass
ed on its first reading.
This ordinance will license the
five games specified by the new law
in which there is no percentage col
lected by the house.
The proprietor will collect. under
the new law, his fee on two. four.
six and eight bells The Dog watch
will pay extra.

ARMY TRANSPORT CORPS
ARRIVED N ELY, SUNDAY

AS per schedule OF The News last
week the Motor Transport Corps Of
the United States Army arrived ir
Ely and proceeded to the Citizens
Park, which. thanks to the citizens
committee, proved adequate and
comfortable for the weary pioneers
of the dusty highway.
A hearty welcome was given the
Transport Corps upon its arrival In
the city and the ladies OF the local
Red Cross soon made the weary sol
diers forget the Chow" of the regu-
lar service by serving variety of
creations OF the culinary art NOT on
the army menu, topped of with cigars
and cigarettes galore.
The shower baths provided by the
live ones OF Ely was the finest thing
the outfit had struck since leaving
the east and when told that there
was plenty of water they gave a
cheer for Nevada and a groan for

mp and scraping their faces for the
evening inspection. many of the
young ladies' of the city circulated
among them and presented the as
tonished boys with flowers Some Of
the lads were writing letters home
and no doubt the letter contained a
phrase relative to the presentation of
the blossom which will let the people
of the far east know that Nevada is
not all sage brush. but both kind
hearts and blossoms.
In the evening the city was de-
lighted by a fine concert at the court
house grounds by the band of the
Goodyear Rubber company, after
which the ladies were invited to at
tend dance given for the benefit of
the members of the convoy. Reeausc
of the number of soldiers in the con-
voy desiring to take advantage of the
opportunity to dance, the committee
in charge requested that residents of
The district refrain from dancing and
give the floor over entirely to the
visitors and the ladies of the district,
which request was reluctantly OBJ

which permitted the operating of the
supply trains for merchandise and
mai the final agreement last Friday
with The rolling stock operators of
the Nevada Consolidated. including
engineers and switchmen both at Nc
Gill and the mines. brought to a
close the most severe strike this dis
trict has ever encountered.
Five weeks ago the men of every

the smelter and railroad in the dis
triet quietly walked out and during

Iany and all crafts in its operating
departments permitted resumption
Of operations of the mines, mill and
smelter, and the return of the Ne
vada Northern Shopmen permitted
operation of the railroad, but the en-
gineers and switchmen who look att
er the operation of the dinkey en-
gines for the Nevada Con voted not
to accept the proposition which had
been accepted by all other crafts.
While II looked as II the strike was
practically at an end, II was impos-
siole to supply the smelfer with ore
without these men and the situation
looked grave. as miners and mill and
smeitermen were not needed without
transportation of ore and switching

an alcoholic beverage?
8. Did Mr.. Pretto find Gus from the
chemist what percentage of hydrocyanic
acid IA poison bay-oil consists of.
From Mr.. pretto's point of view, boy
rum is harmless and can be drunk; he adj
mits it contains 45% alcohol (mostly
wood alcohol, not at all calculated for
drinking purposes); we'll, as whiskey,
gin and many other prohibited drinks do
not contain more than about and, in some
cases, less than 1870 alcohol (alcohol pre-
pared for human consumption there
seem to be only two ways of looking at
this question: either that prohibition is
ali o%ut-and-out failure being utterly de-
feated by bay-rum, or that bay-rum must
take its stand alongside other prohibited
alcoholic drinks until it is prepal ed &C.
cording to a formula that will at once dis
place it as an alcoholic beverage.
