The copious rains of May fooled
q good many farmers. They did
not irrigate, thinking the showers
had done the work, Somehow
the work was not as well done and
the alfalfa has lost ground in con-
sequence, all which shows that the
Nevada farmer can irrigate better
than the clerk of the weather.

Mrs. French Sheldon the Amer

Mrs. Sheldon is still weak from
illness which seized her just before

enough to land at Naples and will
proceed slowly to London by the

Her illness was mainly the re-

OPINION OF THE COURT PER JUDD, O. J..
The law divides criminal cases
into two classes; one class is Of
those within the summary jurisdic
ton of the Police and District Court
and the other those which are only
triable by jury upon indictment.
In the first class mentioned, the
Police and District Justices have
complete and full jurisdiction to
hear and determine the case.
In such cases the magistrate has
full authority over the defendant
and if he pleads guilty inadvisedly
and wishes to withdraw the same,
the magistrate has authority to per-
NIT him to do 80 before final iudg-
ment.
If however the sentence of the
lower court has been pronounced on
the defendant on his plea of guilty,
and an appeal is taken, the issue of
guilty Or not guilty is not before the
appellate court. In fact the issue in
a criminal case is made by the de-
fendant's plea of not guilty. And
when the plea is guilty there is no
issue before the court, unless the
question of mitigation Of sentence
be called an issue.
The case of the King vs. Maika1,
9th Haw., 145, is an authority for
the position that plea of guilty en-
tered before a court having jurisdic-
ton of the offense, cannot be re-
tracted in the appellate court, and
this authority has been followed
without question.
There are many cases reported
where the defendant has asked of
the court that took his plea Of
guilty, for permission to zE i1iaIaw
the plea sud pies guilty, and
col]rrs : = vested with the discretion
TO allow or refuse this, but We have
not been able to find q case where
this has been done in an appellate
court.
See U. s. vs.. Bayand, % Fed.
Rep, 721.
We hold that the leave to with
draw the plea of guilty was properly
declined. Exceptions overruled.
Attorney General Whiting for
prosecution; A. Rosa for defendant.

CHINA,s DANGER.
The Empire COnvuIsed by a
RebeIIious Spirit.

CHICAGO, July r. E. Robert Evans,
an English merchant, passed through
this city to-day from San Francisco on
his ways to New York. When asked
about the recent uprisings in North and
Middle China, he told of some sensa-
tional times
China is on the eve of great rebel
lion," he said. The elder brethren
are convulsing the entire empire with
their frightful riots along the valley of
the Yang-tse. | sailed from Shanghai,
where foreign volunteers are drilling and
preparing for War. Warships of all ma
tons are speeding up the Yang-tse to
protect their various interests. Affairs
in all China are in a most threatening
state. The Chinese people are tired Of
the present dynasty, and this is the way
they are taking to overthrow it.
By these cruel murders it is hoped
that the Chinese Government will be in
volved in foreign complications then
the people will rise and crush the pres
ent ruler. These primitive people can
not bear to see foreigners coming to
their land. Every new improvement
that has been taken from England or
America has the same effect upon the
u6t1fC5 hc bllC ICo lag hdc uRSh OAAO
fighting bull. They blame the present
government for allowing so many for
eigners to get footholds upon their shores.
This feeling has been hidden for some
time. but the people have grown holder
each year, and the violence that is now
being done means sudden and bloody
retaliation.
The American Minister at Pekin is
the only diplomat who is taking active
steps to force the Government to protect
foreigners who are there by treaty right.
Unless immediate and firm investiga-
tons are made it will be as much as
ones life is worth to go through certain
parts of China. If the actual condition
of affairs was known in England. France
and America there would be intense ex.
element over all the world, but at pres
ent very little is known of the terrible
crisis which China is now undergoing.

agate potato fryer is one OF
them. They save trouble, pre-

potatoes that are palatable and

people tell us that they are the

The price is the same. So is
the light.
How do you do about ice
water make it in a pitcher Or
use a cooler? We like a
cooler, (if you don't use a fl
teri, because it saves trouble,
and the water is iced at all
times. The ice lasts longer,
you know, if kept from the air.
This last lot of Coolers re-
ceived includes some in imita-
ton. hard woods, shaped like a
small key. Others are the
regular shape, and a decided
ornament to any room. They're
all good in quality and will
last a life time.
We have another novelty
this week, just in the
nick Of time too. It's a little
pocketable dark lantern, in
nickel throws a good light,
and is as pretty as it is useful
for what it is intended. The
mysterious individual who
prowls around at night in his
bare feet makes it necessary
for one to look about the house
before retiring. Dirty foot
prints are not desirable any
where, and this lantern is Just
the thing to enable one to see
in the dark corners without
being seen. Policemen in
England use them altogether.
So do bicyclists. We think
they are handy to have about

nominees being voted for in all the dis.

just what kind of disturbing factor the

the electoral college, and these have been
regularly cast for the Republican candi-

Republicans elected nine of the eleven
members OF Congress, and as they had
majority OF the total vote they also chose
Inc thirteen Presidential electors. If the
proposed law had been in operation
the Republicans would have given eleven
electoral votes to Mr.. HARRISON and the
democrats cast two for Mr.. CLEVELAND.
Last fall the ''cyclonen passed over the
state, when the opponents of the Republi-
