    POST CARD NEVADA COUNTY COURT HOUSE Looking North from the Corner of Broad and Pine Streets in 1868. In the background is the Nevada Countv Court House as completed in 1865 at a cost of $46,400, the third court house to occupy this site. In the center, at the corner of Pine and Commercial, is the saloon of John Bazley, familiarly known as ‘‘Blazes,’’: whose advertisements in local newspapers of the sixties read, simply, ‘‘GO TO BLAZES,’ ‘An. interesting feature of this picture is the evidence.that, in the early days, the streets of the business” séction of this city were ‘‘planked,’’ as ‘‘necessary for the public convenience and welfare.’’ Pine Street, as provided in an ordinance of the trustees of this City of Nevada: of June 17th, 1864, four years before this picture was taken, was planked from Spring Street to Commercial, and Commercial Street from its intersection with Main to the west line of Pine.
