The newspapers reporters are doing
some wild work in the Durrant case
A San Francisco paper says:
The men who made the examination
say that the imprints on the left side
Of the neck were deeper than those on
the right and reason from that fact
that left-h anded man committed the
crime. Durrant is said to have that
regularity. and in that respect he fills
the bill.
If he was directly in front Of the
woman or directly over her when he
strangled her, exactly the reverse
would be true. II he were kneeling
by the side Of PROSTATE woman
facing her at right angles the side
on which he knelt would determine
the position of his hand on her throat.
whether his four fingers indented the
right or left side of her neck

The interviewer of the Tribune yes
ter,iay seemed to have put in his time
eliciting unimpor' ant conclusions from
people who had no views, He could
have easily found hundred more
people who never saw dispatches
sneaked off the wires at the " u T.
Office. The very fact that 80 many
people in the city had no knowledge
OF the fact all these years, is what
makes it oil the worse for them.

SAD CASE OF WHEELS"

Twist and turn as they please the
ring organs in this county cannot ex-
plain away the fact that every tele-
graph message sent out of Carson
can be read in the Y. & T. office
There is but one line OF telegraph
wires from this city to Reno, and the
circuit runs into every railroad depot
on the line OF the road md out again.
To cut off the circuit would require a
grounded wire. but there is no such
electrical contrivance connected with
the V. & T. office.
There are several parties in this
city who can read telegraph by sound,
and they have frequently tested the
proposition under discussion by saunt-
ering into the V. & T. office and listen
ing to dispatches which 60 over the
wire. This state Of affairs has been
known to many people in Carson for
the past twenty years. Now il the
editor Of the APPEAL has wheels in
his head more than half the com
munity Of Carson is in the same fix.
A few days ago the apologists Of
the Mint shortage made a great hue
and cry about the rascally officers
Who orened letters of suspects. Our
esteemed contemporaries thought that
the law should be called into reqTisi-
ton, and these dreadful people prose
cuted. There was talk about the sa-
cred secrecy of the U. s. mail and all
that. but the secrecy Of the telegraph
line cuts no figure.
The law Of the subject is TO be found
sec. I Of article 1922, statutes of New
ada, sec. III Of article 924 and section
VI of article 927.
1t makes it an offcnse. punishable
with fine Of $1,000 or Imprisonment
for one year, or both, for taking a
message off wire and utilizing it in
any way. Practically. such a law is a
dead letter, for it Is hard to prove in
what way the Information is utilized.
Suppose for instance in big stock
deal. the Y. 4 T. would want to unload
some stock on the eve of a falling
market. and other parties were wiring
orders to purchase, does any one in
this city think that the parties who
got the tip over the wire where to I'M
load. would refrain from doing SO be-
cause Of the restrictions Of article 922
sec. I, or any other section OF the same
law.
No. it is human nature to take ad
vantage Of any knowledge a man has
in business. and the V. & T. people
would not be human were they ex-
ceptions to the rule. The only remedy
is to place them beyond the reach Of
temptation. and have the line SO ar
ranged that reading amessage would
be impossible.

The Indians on the Umatilla
reserve attribute the heavy wind
storm Of Monday to the death of
DIR Io, the medicine man, who
passed away to the happy hunting
grounds. Although generally
thought to have advanced beyond
the stage OF superstition, the Ind
ians yet cling to the crude ideas
and may easily be inspired with
awe when observing some phenom-
enon of nature. The death of DR..
Jo has caused them to mourn very
deeply. To him they attributed
great powers and the usual wonder
fal cures BY means of magic. Had
DR.. Jo lived through the storm, he
would have convinced the Indians
that be caused the wind to blow BY
the aid Of the Great Spirit, for he
seldom failed to turn the works Of
nature to account in holding his
reputation as a medicine man.
