JUDGE QUICKER Off
HIGHEST TRIBUNAL

Monday, for the first time in the
history of Nevada, district judge
viii sit with members of the su-
preme court while a case is argued
and will participate in all proceed
ings connected with disposition of
the litigation. Judge Bartlett, of
Washoe county will sit on the bench
in place of Judge Quicker, who was
the attorney for three or four Of
the litigants when the Pacific Land
and Livestock Company, a number
of years ago, brought suit against
about forty users of water along
the Quinn river in Humboldt county
says the Carson News. Subsequent
ly he became district Judge but he
did not try the case, calling Judge
Taber of Elko County in for the
purpose. The case is now pending
in supreme court on appeal from
Judge Taber's decision of about
two years ago. The record on file
in the Office of the clerk of the
supreme court includes a large
number of maps in addition to
fourteen volumes of testimony
comprising about five thousand
typewriter pages.
The selection of Judge Bartlett
after Justice Quicker had taken the
position that he was disqualified
was made by Governor Boyle sever
al weeks ago.

of the railroad track. Recently"
said Mr.. Rougon, Il was greatly
bothered by impedimenti that inter-
fered with sewage service in the
southern part of town and sought
the source of the trouble day after
day. You can imagine my amaze
ment when trouble shooting finally
ended in the discovery of a large
amount of cooked barley which had
gathered at a point where the fall
of the sewer main is small. | think
took more than a bushel of the
cereal from out of the main" Look
ing squarely at the mayor and
Councilman Hoskins, who reside on
the south side, he continued, "and
| want to put in a request right
now that those who cook barley in
their homes shall feed the delicacy
to their chickens and not make it
into brew, afterward throwing the
evidence of illicit pastime into the
sewer mains, where it causes me a
great deal of trouble" Mr.. Rou-
CONS plant was listened to atten-
lively and respectfully. He re-
eeived a sympathetic ear"

Water Bill Up Again

Water Bill Up Again
Discussion over the claim of the
Winnemucca Water and Light Com
pany for water that was used last
summer during a forty-day period
IN June and july was ended last
night when bill was allowed in
the sum of s1544.40. The water
paid for is alleged by E. II. Gilman
of the water company to have to-
tailed 12,356,152 gallons, while r. f.
Tilden, representing the city in the
computations. submitted an estimate
of 12,3S6,0S0 gallons.
The city authorities countered
with claim against the water and
light company of s334.45, alleged
to be due on account of the follow
ing:
Use of city tractor following the
FIRE which destroyed the power
plant, $4,000.
City hose used and rendered unfit
$3.50.
Labor, $44.45.
Gravel furnished by the city for
correcting street surface following
the repairing of breaks in the mains
of the water company, $3.50.
The water and light company also
presented and was allowed its bill
for street lights and hydrants charge
during the month of November
amounting to sS54.00. Other cur
rent bills were allowed.
E. II. Gilman asked permission to
effect repairs to the road leading
from the power house to the reser-
voir, washed out recently when the
fire pressure was left on following
tests in the evening, this act result
ing in. a damage that can be re-
paired by grader and small force
of men working a couple of days
The request resulted in considerable
discussion anent the pumping system
in vogue here and r. E. Tilden sug-
gested that it might be a good plan
for the water and light company to
provide means for an overflow that
would run into the arroyo near by,
the recent occurrence being the sec
ond of the kind to happen in recent
times.
