Ter as a man who had the respect and
affection of the whole community, and
said that the position he occupied III
his court was one it would be almost
impossible for any other to fill. "His
unerring judgment, his broad views,
and his extraordinary ability to detect
falsehood and discover truth stamped
him as cne above his fellow-man, !"
said Mr.. Mullowny. The speaker also
referred to Judge Miller's deep legal
knowledge, his remarkable memory
for facts and faces, his complete mas
terv of the authorities; and his ability
to quote them at a moments notice.
RESOLUTIONS ADOPTED.
Mr.. w. Calvin Chase introduced the
following resolutions, which were or
dered spread upon the minutes and a
copy sent to Judge Miller's widow:
Whereas, God in His wise judg-
mert has taken from us one who was
ALWAYS recognized as a Jurlst OF pre-
eminent fitness, and one who possessed
a keen conception Of human nature,
and endeavored to elevate his fellows !;
and,
Whereas, as Judge OF this court we
believe he carried out as far as posi-
Bile every rule that would tend to ad--
vance the interest Of all clients and
members of the bar; we take this op-
portunity of giving expression of re-
spect. He recognized all men alike
He was not vindictive man, nor did
he have a single enemy: therefore,
be it
Resolved, That in the death of
Hon. Thomas F. Miller, the bench
loses one of its most distinguished
Judges, friend of humanity, and a
man of the people, and as token of
the high esteem in which he is held by
us. we tender to his bereaved family
our coincidence, and when this court
adiourns it be in honor of the distiu-
guished deceased.

Enforce the Criminal Laws.

Unless the people of Elko county
enforce the criminal laws of the State
this county will become a paradise
for law breakers and life and property
will be at their mercy. During the
last FIVE years we can recall but one
c%anviction by a jury although there
have been a number Of trials in the
District court of parties indicted by
grand juries. 1t is not our intention
to criticise the action Of the juries in
acquitting men charged with crime.
but merely to call the attention of the
public to the conditions that will nat
urally arise should this state Of affairs
continue.
A lax enforcement Of the law leadsto
the formation OF vigilance committees
and a quick enforcement Of the de-
crees Of Judge Lynch. This is a con-
dition OF society that nc good citizen
wishes to prevail in any community.
While we do not advocate the convic-
ton and punishment of innocent meo,
w do insist with all good citizens
that in the rigid enforcement Of our
criminal laws will be fouod the best
security for life and property and the
only means Of preserving order in the
community.

The attention of saloon men is call
ed to the @Act concerning the liabili-
ii 3 Of p%roprietors and keepers Of SAL
o n and gambling houses" passed I y
the last legislature. Saloon men may
save trouble and expense by prohibit
ing minors from frequenting their
places. The law was approved by tho
Governor ON March 18th, and is as
follows:
section L. Any proprietor or
keeper of a saloon. gambling house
or resort where liquors are sold, who
shall sell or give to any minor any
spirituous OF malt liquors, or who
shall permit any minor to lounge or
remain therein, shall be liable to the
parent or guardian of such minor in
damages, which may be collected by
a civil action In a sum not less than
fifty nor than one thousand dol

All saloon men should read this
law and see that they are not made
liable to a civil suit for damages.

MEASURING SUNSHINE.
An Instrument Which Records the
Strength OF Every Ray.

An Instrument which Records the
Strength of Every Ray.
An instrument which has been in
vented for measuring sunshine cleo
trically is SC sensitive that not the
faintest sun ray that may break
through the cloudy arch of a gloomy
day is lost, even if it be but of a mo-
ment's duration, says the Pittsburgh
Dispatch. Not only does it catch these
rays of sunlight but by an ingenious
continuance it records their degree and
the period of the day at which they
occur. The cylindrical glass tubes,
connected by q stem, r inclosed in q
protecting glass sheath. Mercury is
used to separate the air in the bulbs,
which are filled with pure, dry air and
Theoretically sealed. The. space be-
tween the bulbs of the protecting
sheath is then exhausted Of air and
sealed. One of the bulbs is coated with
lampblack and when the sun shines it's
attraction for the blackened bulb drives
the mercury up through the stem lead
ing to the clear glass bulb. In it's pas
sage 1T forms a. circuit with fine wires
fused into the glass and the record is
instantly carried to a register in the OBJ
servers Office. This register is eper-
ated by clockwork, and upon it's brass
cylinder q sheet of paper bearing lines
indicating the minutes and hours of
the day is trayersed by an automatic
pen, which, actuated by the electric
wires attached to the glass bulbs, makes
an absolutely accurate record of the
intensity and duration Of the sunshine
each day.

DEER waNr.-olN CONNECTICUT.

Hunters Petition for Appropriation
with Which to Stock Preserves.
Connecticut hunters are making an
effort to introduce more wild deer into
the state. A petition has been sent to
the state game warden asking for an
appropriation of at least $4,000 for the
purpose of securing deer and stocking
preserves in various parts of the state.
reports the New York Sum. Connect
cut has hundreds of acres of wild coun-
try which is continually growing
wilder, owing to the tendency of the
people to desert the farms and give up
agriculture for manufactures and city
life, and for miles ip some parts of the
state not a house 10 to be. seen. The
country is too barren for agriculture,
not even sheep raising being conducted
with profit in some parts of it, but
the scrubs are just what the deer re-
quire for sustenancethroughthe winter.
There are nov about a dozen wild deer
III the state, and their owners believe
that they exist under meal conditions
there.
The Connecticut climate is much
O favorable tothe animals than that
of Maine, Vermont or New Hampshire,
and in those three states the deer are
met nearly everywhere in the uninhab-
tied portions. The recent movement
to preserve wild deer in Long Island
has been a success. Bay lyn&es, which
in most newspaper reports IN called
Wildcats" in. common with the genu-
inc wildcats, are sometimes met with In

~wORKINGMEN DELUDED.

In the specifications Of the legista-
ton asked by the Federation Of Labor
for the relief Of the idle workingmen
there is mention of an eiyht-llour law,
the reform Of the currency, the restric-
ton OF immigration and liberal appro-
priations for internal improvements,
but not a word about the protective
tariff.
Maj. Mckinley, Boss Hanna,
Speaker Reed and MIR. Dinglef, who
are running the country ain the inter-
est Of the workingmen," will doubt
less be greatly surprised when they
read the federation's memorial to find
that the great beneficence of a high
tariff has been entirely overlooked by
its supposed beneiciaries. They will
rub their eyes with astonlshment
when they find that nearly every
other kind Of legislation has been pre-.
ferred by the laborers to that won
derful specific for hard times-the
protective tariff.
This is evidently all wrong. All Of
the distinguished statesmen mention
ed have repeatedly declared that the
very thing needed to bring prosperity
health and happiness to the working
men is a protective tariff, and that the
higher it is the better. They have
represented the workingmen as hun
gering and thirsting for tariff taxes
and have averred that millions of
them went to the polls and voted the
republican ticket chiefly because the
republicans promise. Glem a bounti
full supply of prosperity taxes. 1t is
evident that the vs.: .o1 do not
know what is god To- L.en or what
they want.
But the error of the working men
does not stop there. In their remark
able memorial they ask whether the
interests Of the trusts, syndicates,
monopolies, corporations and money
ed men ehau be of more importance
than the welfare Of the people,"
Surely these working men are fools
and blind il they do not see that the
interests of the trusts and s~yndicates
are the interests Of the people. Did
not the trusts and syndicates save the
country in the recent campaign2 II
millions we're not given to the trusts
and syndicates. how would the poor
get any money? If ~there were no
tariff baron@ who would build beau
titpl memorable for the delectation Of
$he poors
We have too much confidence in
the firmness and patriotism or tho rec
publican statesmen in control of the
party to believe that they will be di.
verified from their high purpose OF
taxing the country into prosperity by
the plea Of working mon, who do moi
realize what blessings big taxes are
