NEW YORK REFORMS DRAGs.-The
condition of politics in the State of
New York is 40 indication that the
spirit of reform which brought about
Republican victory last November has
run out to q very point. The determi-
nation of Mayor Stong to stand by his
ante.electiOn promises has brought
him the hostility of one wing of the
Republican party. The result, from
the present outlook, will be the fail.
ure to pass proper reform measures by
the Legislature. The Republicans cap
tured that body and they have it within
their power to do much good by the
passage of wise and sOrely-needed
measures. The people of New York
demanded legislation which would
remedy existing evils and make it pos
sible to remodel the government of
New York city so as to lessen the Op-
portunities for the rascality which was
exposed by the Lexow committee. The
objecting Republicans in the legislature
under the lead of Boss Platt must come
to realing sense of their responbility
If they expect to perpetuate the spirit
of reform which developed 30 wondr-
fully last autumn.

NJ. A. Wheeler, in Reno, was on his way
home from his shop about ii o'clock.
When he left Second street to cross to Mrs.

the men who waylaid Taylor, and that
Stewart Leeper who did the shooting was
the other. Gafford, who is now in State
Prison for Jail breaking, confessed in open
court that he was with Leeper the night
that Taylor was waylaid, and that Leeper
shot Taylor. Leeper was arrested at o.
den last June, but he made his escape from
the Jail at that place the night before
Officer Dickey of Reno arrived there.
Friends of Taylor who have been on the
lookout for Leeper located him at Deeth
some time ago, but he left and went to
Newark Valley in White Pine county. An
officer went from Elko to arrest him. but
he had disappeared. Information
was received by the Sheriff here that
Leeper was in Puhranagat valley and the
Constable there was notified to look out for
him. Leeper had left the valley and gone

The sufTsagists OF Maino may be con-
graduated upon the substantial gains
they have mado ia tho laws. Although
tho municipal suffrage bill which passed
the house was defeated by four votes in
the senate, the legislature Of 1895 will
be remembered as the Legislature which
passed tho law giving to mothers equal
authority with fathers IN tho custody Of
their minor children and the caro- Of
their property, and, further, as tho leg
islature which gave to widows an ahso-
Lutte right of dover in tho property Of
the husband, similar provision being
mado for tho widowors. It has also been
decreod that where husband and wife
live apart the courts may require the
husband to make an allowance to his
wifo without divorce being granted.
Tho bill changing the law as to dowor
was drawn by Judge Savage Of Auburn
and is said by lawyers to be a particu-
larly crcditable piece of legislation in
the care and skill shown in its framing.
