Electric Extensions
More than dozen Of the house
holders in the district southwest of
Fallon are to benefit from the build
ing of transmission line three and
one-half miles long that is now un-
der course of construction. No. 6
wire is being used and homes are to
have both power and light at an
early date. several connections hav-
ing already been effected. This Is
as 1t should be. The Lahontan plant
ostensibly belongs to the water
users of the project and the energy
developed there should be used
wherever possible for legitimate
uses on this project, helping to
make life worth while throughout
the pioneering period.

Mail Route to
Be Continued
Local Commercial Club Performs
Effectively In Matter of Better
Mall Conditions

The Churchill county commercial
club has again demonstrated its use
fulness as local body, this time in
connection with the maintaining of
the west star mail route serving
the territory between this city and
Hazen over a 19.5 miles route. I'm
til late days it looked as though this
would be abandoned but the COM
mercial club interyened to interest
department officials through Ne
yada's energetic junior senator with
the result that bids will be reviewed
ON February Sth of the new year
and an award made for the service
for q period of one year. All told
81 patrons are served by this route
and the plan entertained by the de-
partment at this time calls for a
three time week service on the
regular rural free delivery plan.
The following letters have been re-
ceiyed from Senator Henderson and
these more fully explain the situa-
ton:
December 23, 1920.
Churchill c u n y Commercial
Club. Fallon, Nevada.
Gentlemen: | am just in receipt
of letter from tho Fourth Assist
ant Postmaster General in regard to
the petition sent by you to me some
time ago. | am enclosing this let
ter herein and you will notice that
a decision has been made to read
yertise for bids for the route de-
sired. / hope that sufficient inter-
est will be taken in submitting bids
so that the Department will be able
10 put the route into effect.
Very sincerely yours,
CHAS. b. HENDERSON,.

and certainly some of yoa would be
returning to localities in which the
disease is more prevalent tnan Lere.
No Funds Available.
If the present condition continues
it will only be matter of :imc until
YOUR state health officer IS 'a!led up
on to provide medical and n'1rSlAg
help to needy peo}'in. L. would he
inconsistent for ne TO tell %ou on
the one hand that there is no danger
and on the other that the state
health officer required a large fund
to provide help to people stricken
with influenza. The state board OF
health is without funds to meet any
call for help, no matter how great
the need. We can not tell how soon
we will be required to give material
assistance and even though we do not
need the money at this immediate
time an emergency epidemic fund is
urgently demanded so that the state
health officer may prepare to meet
whatever need arises. This tuna
should be so arranged that the state
health officer can spend it for what
ever purpose and need arising be-
cause of the occurrence of an cpl
demic disease. Other communicable
diseases occur during an epidemic OF
influenza but community in the
grip of such an epidemic is not IN a
position to properly handle any extra
situation. The state health officer
will be called upon to handle any
and all epidemic diseases which ordl-
narily the community could manage.
You will help in this emergency as
you have always done when the
health of the people of South Caro-
lima was menaced--ss a further,
and more generous assistance to your
state health officer give him an elias
tic fund which he can use to help
needy people as you desire them to
be helped.

PSvIllONS S"ePt away.
Several bathing pavllions were
swept away at Coney Island and the
first floor of the big Shclburre Hotel
at Brighton Beach was flooded.
Traffic in the snow-iilled streets in
New York dwindled to 10 per cent. OF
normal. The street-cleanlnG depart
ment asked an emergency appropria-
ton Of $4,000 to clean the streets.
An urgent appeal was made tor
workers and it was said that l4,Ooo
would be hired if they could be found,
but that only 5000 were available.
Lacking men to form shoveling gangs,
100 motor plows are being used to
clear the main arteries of travel. The
health department has declared the
accumulation of snow a menace IN
the influenza epidemic.

MANY HOUSES SWEPT
AWAY BY BIG STORM
New York City Faces Fuel Famine
as Snow Continues TO Fall.

New York, Feb. 5.-Euge waves,
rolled up by ffty-naile gale, were
still sweeping the North Atlantic
coast tonight, while cities and towns
along the shore were trying, with in
different success, to dig themselves
out of the deepest snow drifts OF
wears. Damage done by the sea to
resorts and summer homes along the
New Jersey and Long Island coasts
was estimated at hundreds of thous-
ands of dollars.
Shipping remained at anchor or
moved with the utmost caution. IN
the land-locked waterways around
New York huge ice foes menaced
navigation. The steamer Name OF
the New England Steamship COM
pany, was driven ashore on the north
end of Long Island and four other
Sound liners were reported creeping
along through fields of ice. The
Maine, WI ich carries five passengers
and a crew of seven was reported
in no immediate danger and a tug
has been sent to her relief.
Faces Fuel Famine.
Cold, snow, ice and high seas have
made it almost impossible to trans
mort coal from the tidewater reser-
voir at Perth Amboy to New York
and the city faces fuel famine
which will force all its transportation
lines to suspend operations unless
weather moderates swiftly.
While mountainous seas were bat
tering the coast the highest tide ever
recorded in New York harbor caused
foods along the Harlem and Hudson
rivers. Ferry houses on the New
York and New Jersey sides of the
Hudson were flooded and water from
the Erie terminal dropped into the
Hudson tubes at Jersey City. Home
ward bound commuters fretted and
fumed as they waited for ferry
boats to get them to the trains they
knew would be far behind schedule
in reaching their destination.
Snow Plows at Work.
Two-score big snow plows were al
work today on the New York Centra
between New York and Buffalo
Snow has drifted from fifteen te
eighteen feet deep in some OF the
big cuts. Through trains from al
directions were running hours late
. Suburban traffic, especially on Lone
, Island and Staten Island, were serl
ously impeded.
; Seabright, long target for th'
waves, suffered more than any OF tn
, other Northern New Jersey coast re
so~ts. II was estimated that the hlGl
tide ard heavy seas had done $3.50,
