ANXIOUS TO GET
ALE YEAR ROAD
Resident Of Mining Town
Writes That Sister County
Looks ExPec ctantly Toward
EIkO Connection

The public ara In an expectant
frame Of mind and let's go."S are the
concluding words of a letter received
by the independent from an Eureka
county man. whS. along with major
ity OF the Eureka county people, IL
anxious to seq something definite
done toward obstruction OF an all
year road from Eureka to Elko.
The Eureka Eiko road movement
began a short time ago when definite
moves toward erystallizinga public
opinion against tie exhorbItant freight
rates charged Eureka people by the
Eureka-P Palisade Railway were start
ed. The writer of the letter from
which the above excerpt is taken also
wrote pertinently upon the question
from the viewpoint of a man on the
ground. The letter presently quoted
from indicates that the writer, who
knows his colleagues well, is very pos
tive in his opinion that now is the
time for combined efforts on the part
Of Eureka and Elko county people to
relieve the situation that is now
threatening our sister town with doom
and at the same time bring sub
stantial. share OF Eureka business into
this county. Other excerpts fran the
letter read as follows: ~ HgE Z
The railroad is working to down
the all year road to Carlin vigorously
in various ways. One is to bring the
electric power IN from Belmont and
that is probably the most discussed
topic.
You ought to ride over the railroad
and be sure and take a lunch with
you. Nearly six hours are required to
go 81 miles. an average OF ii miles
an hour ;at times the speed reaches
as high as 25 miles an hour. The first
part OF the ride through Pine Valley
will remind you OF a ride at sea,

SO the track was built around It. .
The sheep men are strong for the all

you or any other persons interested
and a visit from the members Of your
Highway Board would be welcomed
and of much benefit" ~
The members of the Eiko County
Highway Board, IN an informal ses-
sion, stated to q representative OF this
paper that they would be more than
willing to aid in every manner posi-.

tanning an all year round road be.
tween Blko and Eureka. Ii is likely
that a definite program for securing
this aid for Eureka county and asset
for Elko county will be made In the
near future.

SISTER MARY'S

DRIED FRUITS IN DELICIOUS
DESSERTS.

fruits on the market that will make

greatly decreased and today but Is
of these conductorettes are to be
