Yfn 1LSON BROUOIIER was one of the few millionaires whose
fcjjfcfrl money did not poiI him.
An one of the upbuilders of the state he was equal to any and in
his passing Carson City has lost one of her biggest .assets.
Wilson Hroughcr's acta of chatty were as unlimited as they were
unknown. He was a man clear through and hut death leaves the world
poorer, indeed.
IS SACRAMENTO FALLING DOWN
UK disinclination of Sacramento through her chamber of com
L .merce to open the eastern tide of .the Sierra road from this
city will have the effect of decreasing the number of people who
would visit the "Days of '40" celebration in the California city dur
ing the latter part of this month.
The Sacramentans promised that .they would be at work on their
end of the Carson-Sacra mento road several weeks ago.. So far thev
have given little more than promises.. .
With -tourist already reaching eastern Nevada cities and Ne
vadans planning their vacations, Sacramento is losing her attractive
ness because the highway is not open.
There are other conventions and celebrations planned for the
West this year, the California capital city should realize, and the
"Days of '49" will be put an opener.
The following are a few of the conventions whose delegates will
pass through Sacramento and Carson:
Pacific Coast Ad Clubs, San Diego, June; National Association
Real Estate Boards, San Francisco, June; Disabled "American War
Veterans, San Francisco, June 26-fM); International Association Chiefs
of Police, San Francisco, June 19-24; Delta Sigma Delta Fraternity
Los Angeles, July; American Osteopathic Association, Los Angeles,
July 3-10; National Dental Association, Los Angeles, July J7-24
American Bar Association, San Francisco, August ; Knights of Py
thias, Supreme Lodge, San Francisco, August 8; Private Soldiers
and Sailors' Legion of U- S. A-, Oakland, September; National En
eampment, Spanish War Veterans, Los Angeles, September.
This city has done her share in opening the road from Carson to
Bijou and the promise of Sacramento to do a share is not forgotten

the biggest events of the year. ,
ihe convention entertainment com
mittee, consisting of Blake, Allen "and
Payne have also had a number of meet
ings. Its task is not so hard right
now as it is much easier to plan to
spend the money than to raise it. Suf
fice it to say that this committee has
spent (on paper) at least some of the
money that the finance committee has
to raise. Rut look at the advertisement

Best kind of commun'ty advertising
when delegates, both men and women,
from over the entire state, spend a few
uas in attendance at the convention,
are royally entertained, by the people
of Carson lots of entertainment and
everything free and they return to
their homes with a warm feeling for
the beautiful green spot at the base of
the Sierras, the ."gateway to Lake Ta
hoe." with its eenial copulation of en
! tertaining; hosp'table, pleasure-loving
people.
The committee is planning to show
the delegates a "time" that will even

" Ely Post has made up !ts mind to have
a memorial building and from the way
things look the building is going to

first be anticipated. They put on a
minstrel show, and from all reports.
it was more than successful.

fT EVADA w one of the few states left, that offers immense op
IJTl portunities to the man with limited capital, and it only re
mains for this fact to be broadcasted in order to bring thousands o
new families here to make theirjhome- It is thoroughly feasible
through the proper methods and agencies to double Nevada's popu
lation before .the next census is, taken. . It is up to the various or-;
ganization throughout the state to make this an actuality. It is com
pletely practicable and now is the time to begin the great work.
There is no better agency than -the .commercial clubs or chambers
of commerce in the different counties, the Ely "Times says. They are
sufficient in number to form a strong .nucleus on which to build a
more comprehensive organization. Tbeir work could be coordinated
in such a way that the results would be great and the effect of the
work noticeable almost from the beginning.
Data should be compiled, giving. accurately and clearly informa
tion .that would be of value to , prospective settlers disclosing the
wonderful agricultural possibilities. , Nevada has thousands of acres
of fertile land that are waiting for enterprising settlers to reclaim.
In many of the valleys there is abundance of water from 25 to 30
feet beneath the surface that can be pumped on the ground at a com
paratively low cost. Cheap power is the one essential factor to re
claim a vast acreage in Nevada. This is the day and age of electricity,
which is synonymous with cheap power. With the great Colorado
river project once under way a , new gateway will be thrown open
to the development of the natural resources of southern and eastern
Nevada, and these sections of the state will take on an air of pros
perity that will confirm the predictions of those who have had the
eapaoity to visualize it will be the .realization of the hopes and as
pirations of some of the prominent engineers of Nevada, one of whom
is State Engineer J. O. Scmgham. ? Col. Scrugharaa's activities in rep
resenting Nevada in the several conferences that have been held with
other interested states with a view, to making an equitable distribu
tion of the waters of the Colorado river are worthy, of the highest
praise. He lias manifested a knowledge of engineering that has
placed him high in the ranks with the best engineers of the country.
It is evident that the views of Herbert, Hoover and those of J. O.
Scrugham coincide on the vital and fundamental issues effecting the
Colorado project. Nevada is depending on Mr. Scrugham and the
people have every confidence in his ability to bring the matter to
a successful conclusion. Nevada is indeed fortunate in having a man
of Scrugham 'a calibre on the Colorado River Commission.
DEPARTMENT NEWS
