Weston has recently come Into greater ptomlncnce by reason of tin1 fact that enterpris ing citizens have been advertising her abroad It has given out the Impres sion that she is being boomed, but this is a mistake. Weston, does not need any booming. She has the location, tho surroundings, the resources and the enterprising citizens to make her cne of the coming towns of the Inland Empire Spirit of Progress. The place at present beais the ap pearance of a boom town or the ter minal of a new railroad or a new min ing town in a place where a rich strike has been made. The citizens are all full of life: building anil public Impiovements are going o tint every nolnt and the atmosphere is tilled with n snlrlt of prosperity that cannot be concealed. A new fountain has just been placed in tho main street that iiniirw fort b n snrav of clear, rold water day and night that gives the place the appearance of n modern city. , Early History. Tho town was laid out In 18(i'.l by T. T. Lleuallen. who was the lirst iwstmaster. In those days It was a eood trading point. The people along the Wild Horse, and over a wide scope of country, came here lor their mall and did their trailing here. Many stories of tho early days are still told by the old-timers and Weston from the beginning as at present day was full of lite and confident of the tuture. The town was first incorporated by an act of the legislature In 187S. T. J. Lucy was first mayor. Dan P. Wright was recorder. Harney Prliio, town marshal and -L. S. Wood, lirst tieas lifer. Destoyed by Fire. The entile town was destroyed by tire In 1S8.1 save one building which, still stands and Is now occupied by the Fair store. The town soon began to rebuild and has continued In a gen eral substantial growth until the re cent building spirit which has struck it and brought it Into notice through out Hie immediate country. A num ber of new resident buildings have just been completed and a number of others are under construction. Soveral new business blocks are also contemplated. The second act of the legislature incorporating and enlarging the rights of the municipality was passed lu 1893. Following are the present town officials: J. A. Host, mayor; M. Hry son, M. A. Raker. J. C. Turner. C. H. Taylor, Frank Saling, P. T. Harbour, counellmon; L. S. Wood, recorder; J. R. Kllgore, treasurer and I) F. Lav ender, marshal. In Good Condition. The town Is in good ftnaneial con dition. It owns its own water sys tem anil fire depattment anil has a good city hall anil jail and owns the grounds upon which they are situated. Tho water works are especially ef licient. The reservoir is fed by a large group of springs owned by the town and the elevation of the reser voir Is such that water can be thrown through the ordinary fire hose a dis tance of 90 feet In the air, many feet above the highest building or church steeple ,n the town. In connection with tho department is also a volun teer huok and ladder company and this and the hose company are kept so thoroughly organized that the peo ple of Weston do not foar another de struction by fire. , Schools.
