STATE ENGINEER TO
Be HERE AUGUST )

Announcement is made by Theodore
Grady. secretary of the local Cham
Der of Commerce, that he has re-
ceived a letter from State Engineer
Scrugham. stating that he will be
here on the 5th day Of August to
meet the members of the chamber,
and discuss the feasibility of includ-
ing the Humboldt River irrigation
project in government surveys with
the Owyhee irrigation project
Mr.. Grady also announces that at
a meeting of the Inter-Mountain Rate
Association, held in Salt Lake City on
June 13. the sum to be raised by the
association, which includes a great
number of western states, was set at
$4,000, the portion to be raised by Ne
yada being set at 800. This money
is to be used II necessary In fighting
off unjust freight rates for inter-
mountain states. in case the railroad
companies should make a reduction
of rates, and discriminate against
these western states.
Delegates to this convention con-
sisted of two directors and one vice
president from each state. those sent
from Nevada being J. F. Shaugh-
messy, chairman of the Public Ser
vice Commission; w. H. Simmons,
also of the Public Service Commits
sion; and E. H. Walker, traffic man.
ager of the Reno Chamber of Com
merce. The sums to be raised by
the different states and by the diff
ferent organizations belonging to the
association in the different states
were determined by the population.
The committee from Nevada agreed
to raise $500 instead of the 500 ap-
portioned to them. thus doing away
with a need for repeating a call for
money. The amount to be raised by
the local chamber has been set at
$50.
Mr.. Grady states that there are
thirteen organizations belonging to
the association. In Nevada. thus max
ing the amounts allotted to each very
small.

700 MUCH WASTE,
WATER GETTING LOW

Request Is made by Chief of Police
amb that people of this city use a
little Judgment in the use of water
until the present shortage is relieved.
He states that the reservoir Is nearly
empty. and that in fear of fire, 1t is
not practicable TO drain the water
mains by turning off the supply. He
says that everybody seemed to be
using water for irrigation last night.
and that 1t seemed impossible to keep
them from doing 80. Perhaps the
reason for this IL the rumor that cer-
tain prominent citizens are taking no
chances on letting their lawns die.
Every effert is being made to get an
engine installed and the pump start
ed II all goes we'll this will be ac-
complished by tomorrow night and
then the town will have plenty Of
water.

Light Company at the old pumping
plant by the bridge this morning. An
engine Of $50 horsepower has been
ordered from Hazen. and Is expected

stalled at the pumping plant upon

put In from the bridge to the plant

pumped from a deep well under the
