Ex-Governor Adams and Lienten-

scribe's thanks for many courtesies
extended to him while at the State
Capital.
The NEWS man is indebted to Sena-
tors Comins, Maute, Stearns and
Patchen for courtesies extended to him
in the Senate chamber. Also, to As
semblymen Hip, Russell, Foster and
others for like courtesies in the House.
Assembly Bill No. "a, introduced
by Hip, to amend the bill consolid-
ating certain Offices in White Pine
county and regulating their compen-
sation. Referred to Ways and Means
Committee. This bill refers to changes
in the salaries of County Clerk and
Sheriff.
The Supreme Court has decided
that the printing of the proposed Con-
stitional amendments in the Statute is
sufficient advertisement. Now let's
have an election and fix matters so
expenses will be reduced for the COM
ing two years.
Senator Comins has introduced Sen
ate Bill No. 64-To amend an Act to
encourage the construction of rail
road through the State of Nevada.

Everybody says the Joanna has been
sold and the first payment made. This
is probably true, though we are not in
position to speak by the card. In
any event there is no need of our peo-
pie getting unduly excited over the
matter as it will be some time yet be-
fore active work will commence. The
NEWS will keep it's readers posted on
the situation when the proper time
arrives.
General Thomas Haley of Eureka,
realizing that the Second Brigade N.

ago, and knowing that the Commissary
Major could make no requisition for
supplies, put up dainty lunch for
him on the road home. Thanks, Cen
eral.
Hook Mason and w. J. Westerfield
have had little scheme before the
Legislature. They wanted the State

Churchill, White Pine and Douglas.
Twenty-Five members of the Assem-
bly, are pledged against any meddling
with county lines.

troduced by Mr.. Norcross of Washoe
giving the wife equal rights with the
husband and granting that all COM
munity property shall revert to the
surviving spouse in the event of the
husbands death, is a just and equable
measure and should receive the hearty
support and approval of the members
of the legislative body.
