New Method Of .Deaiinx with Of
Tenders.

A New Method Of IDeaiing with Of
sfsndees.
Captain r. A. Palmer of Carlin. ar
rived here yesterday with Chinaman
named See Yon, whom he arrested for
seNing whisky to Iodians at that place
The Chinaman was taken before United
States Commissioner Windle, aud ex.
amined on the charge. The Oommis.
sioner held him to answer before the
United States District Court at Carson,
and fzed his bail at $500. The Uuited
States law proscrbes as a penalty for
selling whisky to Indians. MT more
than two years imprisonment, and a
fne not exceeding $3.50. forthe first Of
fense.
This is new method of dealing with
offenders of this class. and one which
promises to be far more effective than
prosecuting them under the State laws.
Heretofore. persons accused of the
crime have been tried before a Justice
of the Peace aud if found guilty, sem
fenced to Imprisonment in the county
Jail. which, in the winter season, has no
terror for the average Chinaman, who
prefers being boarded aud lodged at the
expense of the public during the cold
weather. to liberty. Under the new
method the General Government pays
the expense OF fsrresting aud prosecuting
offenders. aud of course receives what
ever fines may be collected from them
1t ID hoped that it will have good eff.
feet, and that the fear of being taken to
Carson and sent to the State Prison for
a year or two will deter whites and
Chinamen from selling Intoxicating
drinks to the red men. and effsctually
end TIE savage sprees in which. they ia
dolgs when they can procure whisky.
