Rev. BIaskie Discusses
Washington Conference


Rev. D. R. Blaskie addressed the
woman's Club on Tuesday on the sub
iect of the Washington conference on
limitation of ornaments.
Outlining the influence of women
upon men who have been great world
shapers, Mr.. Blaskie went on to say
that he was addressing the ladies on
this subject because Of the influence
they could exert today.
The difference between the Wilson
League and this proposed Association
of Nations is that the former was a
group of fifty-one powers bent On po-
Icing the earth, while Mr.. Harding's
group is OF only four, to police the
Pacific. Again. the present League is
supposed to be perpetual. while the
one under discussion at Washington
is to endure only ten years. And any
nation caa withdraw from it on a
years notice.
But, Nj. Blaskie asked, what is to
prevent an alliance of Germany, Rus
STA and China into a counter-associa'
tion that can oppose this one and SO
wreck all hopes of world peace or g
ven peace in the Pacific?
The solution to the problem lies moi
in legislation. diplomacy, treaties. II
depends upon a more sincere appre
citation Of the Christian doctrine Of
life-a more honest endeavor by al
men to love their neighbor as them
| selves.

ELY HAS COAL A.PlEM1Y
FOR IMMEDIATE NEEDS

The matter OF the coal strike, which
seems TO be about the all-absorbing
topic these days. is still a strike and
further than that all matters in con-
nection with IL are merely guess.
The guesses ventured as to the dura-
tion and probable time of settle
ment are, to say the least. wide apart,
and the miners and operators have
granted the public the privilege of
guessing as many times as he or she
may see fit
The situation in this district, how
ever, is most comfortable one under
the conditions. Manager r. H. lIoltz-
man of the Ely Lumber C Coal Com
pany. took time by the forelock and
laid in supply sufficient to meet the
local demands until June first. Dur
ing last week he received wire from
the Utah Fuel Company saying they
were in position to ship and inluir-
ing il any coal was needed here.
With the supply on hand and the
bright prospects that the Utah fields
will continue to operate. the local
dealer has decided to make no more
purchases at this time, believing that
before any more coal is needed here
the new freight rate will be in effect
which will mean a saving of one dol.

which the public is deeply interested

COMING FROM THE EAST
TO VISIT ELY.CALUMET

e. w. yenable, formerly of Vir-
ginia, but now of Ely, Nevada, re-
turned last Thursday night after an
absence OF about five months, during
which time he visited his former homo
in Norfolk and attended to his busi-
ness interests through Virginia. He
spent some time at the national capi-
tai. and when asked by representa-
tive of the News as to business condi-
tions in the east he said that in his
opinion they were improving, and
business which has been at a stand
still for long period Is showing some
signs of new life. Much now de-
pends upon the coal strike" said Mr..
Venable, and / fear it will be of long
duration because from all that can
be learned 1t Is going to be fight to
a finish.' After escaping the un-
usually hard winter which visited this
section and enjoying the warm south
ern climate Mr.. Venable said that he
was glad to be home again, and will
now devote his attention to the Ely
Calumet, in which he and his brother
and associates in the south are in
terested.
J. NJ. Hayden, who Is also heavily
interested in the Calumet property,
left Washington, d. c. last Monday,
travelling by automobile over the Lin
coin highway.
Unless the condition of the roads
through the mountain states, such as
Wyoming. are still blocked by snow,
Mr.. Hayden expects to reach Ely in
about three weeks, when he will con-
fer with Manager A. d. Myers, who
has been one of the principal owners
of the property since its location, and
through his untiring efforts an i'm
mense quantity or ore is now blocked
out, ready for the market as soon as
the market is ready for the metal,
which now appears to be the only
thing needed to place the property
among the big producers cf Nevada

COMMERCE CHAMBER MEETING
CONSIDERS IMPORTANT SUBJECTS

It to their interest to assist the Ely
business men in such matters as good
road connections through Ely, which
is a strategic point on the great road
from New York to San Francisco.
When the matter of the erection of
dormitory in connection with the
county high school was taken up
some expressed the view that the
amount of money involved was large
and questioned the wisdom of such
an expenditure at this time. The
bonds have already been sold and Ed
Millard, a member of the county
board of education, expressed the
view that too much work had now
been done in the matter and the plans
had progressed TO a point where he
felt they could not be abandoned. He
said that a considerable saving could
be made to the county in the matter
OF transportation of students from
the mines and McGill, while in addi-
tion a revenue would be available
from the teachers, several OF whom
had already applied for quarters in
the dormitory, for which they were
willing to pay the sum of $50 per
month as rental. The salary of the
janitor. the director said, could be re-
duced by providing him with quarters
in the building, and when the ad-
vantages were all considered he
thought 1t would bring good returns
on the money expended and the i'm
provement should be proceeded with
without delay
The meeting was a most harmon
ious one, and this feature in connec-
tion with the unusually large attend
anoe was a strong indication of the
fact that the business men whose
interests can best be served through
such a body, will hereafter take an
active part from which prosperous
suits ere sure to flow

Three Of q Kind
Landed Behind Bars

City Night Marshal Charles Pedlar
took into custody one fine still. one
gallon of red eye and ono distiller at
an early hour last Friday morning
and safely landed all in the city jail
The matter was later turned over
to the county authorities and a hear
ing set before Judge d. c. Mcdonald
yesterday afternoon at 1880. o clock.
At the stated time, however, a con-
tinuanee was asked for and granted
on the ground that the district attor-
ney was busy on other matters. The
hearing has been set FOR tomorrow
morning at 10 o'clock
According to the story told the
night marshal after keeping the place
under surveillance practically all
night entered the building, within a
stones throw of the city hall, where
he found the still in full operation
and one gallon of the product al
ready turned out.

PLANS NOW BEING WORKED OUT
FOR IMPROVEMENT Of NEW PARK

residences and business houses as
suggested would rob the park of its
real value as a public Improvement
and practically make 1t an attractive
back yard for the owners of the lots
rather than stand out as q city mouu-
ment A number of citizens have op-
posed the sale of lots on Mill street or
Mill avenue, and 1t is pointed out that
II the plan suggested to extend First
street along the western side OF the
park is decided upon this would leave
an additional acreage on the hillside
extending back nearly three hundred
feet. which would make a most de-
sirable business site. When one
walks over the ground the value of a
terrace overlooking the park and
would have a view not only of the en-
tire city Of Ely, but for miles down
Stcptoe valley to the great smelter at
McGill cannot fail to appeal All
these matters are yet to be worked
out, but the suggestions now under
consideration seem to be most attrac-
tive.
The next matter of Importance
brought up was road improvement on
Aultman street west of First street.
The city officials have had a confer
ence with General Manager George
L. Hickey of the Nevada Northern
Railway Company, and 1t was an
nounced that the railroad official had
expressed both willingness and de-
sire to cooperate with the officials so
far as possible in the matter of any
betterment. The matter now under
consideration is to do away with that
undesirable piece of road which runs
under the Nevada Northern tracks by
culvert near the western city limits
and leave the present culvert stand as
1t Is for the passage of high water
with the spring thaws. The sharp
turns and narrow space have always
made the culvert the dread of travel
ers, and the wonder is that serious
accidents have not happened at that
point The present plan would be to
cut off that portion of the hill where
the railroad curves round it just q
short distance east of the junction OF
the high line and passenger line

Aultman street for a sort distance tfa
railroad could then be crossed

a considerable distance and down
the west side Of the track, joining /
present road right near the ci
limits. The matter will be taken
with state and county officials wi
the view OF working out some plan
which the citizens will get the benei,t
of the much needed improvement
1t was announced that arrange
ments had been made between the
city and county officials whereby the
city will have the benefit of the coun-
ty road equipment for the resurfacing
of city streets as soon as weather con-
ditions will permit BY this mutual
arrangement the work can be done at
the least possible expense. as the
county permits the use of its excel
lent equipment at cost. which for the
big caterpillar and graded with opera
tors Is $50 per day, and the Peerless
truck with operator Sic per day
The important matters taken up at
the meeting Wednesday night will
probably gain considerable headway
before the next regular meeting,
which should be one of still further

White RiUer Roads
Out of Commission

Collier Turner arrived in Ely last
Friday, coming in from the Willow
Grove ranch in White River valley
with team for supplies.
Collier says that while the condi-
tion of the main road has been com
paratiyely good until the storm which
visited the district yesterday. he con-
sumed one whole day in making the
thirty-mile trip. due principally
to the fact that the cross and
and connecting roads through the
valley are badly washed out IN
many places, and the horses sink In
the mud knee deep. He says that
vii Hirton, owner of the Willow
Grove ranch, narrowly escaped losing
valuable horse which, while at
tempting to drink from a ditch In
Jake's valley a few days ago was
washed down stream a distance OF
about 75 feet by the extremely high
