N EVADA City Dairy TRANSCRIPT NAT P. BROWN, Proprietor. FRED HE. BROWN, Manager. ——_—_—__ a ae TE RMS OF SUBSCRIPTION Gyfen, « «© $6 Per Year . By Carrier, é . «mMDelivered toany part of the city. 12 1-2c Per Week Issued Every Evening, Sundays Excepted, at Nevada City MONRDAY, .....-.00-0 Me «i. 1.October 19, 1903 —— EVERYBODY SHOULD ASSIST THE PROMOTION COMMITTEE NE of the greatest steps that Nevada County ever took for the purpose of putting herself in the fropt rank with numerous other progressive counties of the State, and one that has been far reaching and effective in accomplishing the results for which it was intended, was the organization and formation of the Nevada County Promotion Committee; which by the way, is composed of some of the most capable and enterprising ¢itizens of the State. It is conceded by all that no organized body of men ever done more toward promoting and advancing the development of our local resources and the general interests of this section of the State, or has worked more harméniously and successfully for our good and welfare, than the Nevada County Promotion Committee. Therefore we are pleased to note that the members of this organization are given unstinted credit and praise, which they are justly entitled to, for their splendid work in the past. The interest of this great county, with its wonderful and almost limitless resources, should not be allowed to lag, nor the interest in pushing the development of the same grow lukewarm or cold, and there is little danger of such a calamity or siege of “dry rot” getting a foothold in this section if our people as a whole will continue to rally to the support of our Promotion Committee, give them encouragement from time to time by endorsing their efforts, and refrain from “knocking.” The tongue of the knocker is the worst enemy that any Promotion Committee has to contend with, and is not only discouraging, but has a terrible blighting effect upon any work of enterprise or advancement under way, and, in short, a great hinderance. We are glad to state, however, that our people have united to down this “knocking” spirit so prevalent in many communities and have to such a great measure been successful, for if there is any of these pessimistic octupuses or “cusses” left in our community he must have crawled into his hole and pulled his hole in after him, as he has completely disappeared. For this relief the Promotion Committee. has also labored zealously with the general public and is entitled to credit. It is therefore with extreme pleasure that we take cognizance of the fact that our local Promotion Committee have again taken up active and aggressive work, after its wellearned summer vacation. A meeting of the Committee will be held tonight at this city, when plans will be outlined and formulated for carrying on the vast amount of enterprising and beneficial work already decided on. New ideas and propositions will also be considered at this meeting, and it is probable that this first session for the season of the Promotion Committee will be the most important yet held by the organization. Let every member be on hand this evening, and to those of our citizens who are not yet members of the Promotion Committee we would advise them to attend this initial meeting and enlist in the work. Everybody should put their shoulder to the wheel and help our Promotion Committee push along the car of Progress and Prosperity.” Now is your opportunity. MINERS ASSOCIATION)’ Narrow. Escape. While “Dad” Edwards was engaged in removing a temporary awning from above a second story window of the Chicago lodging house, today, he met with an accident which might have terminated fatally bad it not been for his grit and rare presence of mind, There is a narrow space of eighteen or twenty inches between the lodging house and the building adjoining—Oolley’s butcher shop—and the.space is covered with ordinary tin sheeting to ward off the rain.
