policy in the long run.
The Floriston people are OF new
blood and have plenty of capital.
Nevadas many resources will richly
reward investors but large investments
require considerable backbone, a quality
home capital lacks, the blood supplying
its spinal columns being of the chilly
variety. We asked a number of
Reno's solid men to simply trouble
themselves to investigate the matter
so they could report intelIigently upon
1t If asked. In the majority Of in
stances the replies we're gracious, in
others local patriotism was at low ebb

Water storage is the key TO water
use tritely says the Pacific Rural
Press. The time must come when the
great water supplies Of the West will
be econnmically utilized to the last gal
lon. Even the ancient Hindoos would
have quickly controlled for their own
benefits the situations found in every
Western State which our present civil
ization neglects. There are hundreds
Of Western streams passing through
lands Of unsurpassed fertility, where
the climate is sallbrious and healthful,
but where no plow turns the furrow, for
the one reason that the streams are
now raging torrents and again dry beds
Of sand. Only storage Of these winter
floods can equalize conditions and
make possible the reclamation of these
lands.

CHILDREN's SOCIETY.
The Annual Meeting VIII be Held
This Evening.

This evening at s o'clock In the rooms
of School Superintendent Erlewine, Odd
Fellows Temple, the annual meeting OF
the Sacramento Society for the Proven
ton of Cruelty to Children will be held.
On this occasion, say the incumbent Of
ficers, it ought to be felt by the MEM
bers that their presence !. is essential
that the work should not devolve upon
the very few, but be shared by the
many. so
Tonight the officers for the new So
ciety-year will be elected and a new
Board of Directors chosen. Reports o.
all the proceedings for the past year
will be made and statistical showings
OF what the work has been.
The occasion offers the finest oppor-
tunity for criticism Of past marriage
ment and for suggestions as to future
policy, and it is hoped by the officers
that it will be freely INDUCED in. Above
all, they ask that there be full attend
ance and generous aid in selecting a
new administration.
The meeting affords an excellent OPP
portunity for the payment of annual
dues. which are very light, and thus dis
miss the matter for an entire year. The
old Board of Directors will meet at
half-past Z o'clock, discharge their last
duties and adjourn sine die.

endearment WOO. or authority command
you to trample on conscience? The
first social drink, game Of chance, Sab
bath breaking, false entry, and is the
enemy whispering, sit is only a little
one?" Now is your moment. Will seems
weak and passon strong, but rouse
yourself now and resolve. Look out
for the beginnings of evil-the first
driftings of your frail bark toward the
current, the rapids, the whirlpool
waves. Go to that dance hall Of wild
dissipation; enter that gambling hell;
follow that strange woman" to her
place; make that fraudulent entry;
make light OF the Sabbath and its UNI
told blessing-what have you done?
Weakened your moral nature, shar-
pened the dagger for that assassin who
waits to stab you, becoming accessory
to the murder of your own soul. Broth
ers, Daniel was right. Follow him.
Yield to the wooings of Daniels God
Knight. Let the conflict be decided
now. Break away from the bonds that
are already closing around you. Hasten
your escape from the poisoning evil Of
|sin. Close on your heels is the avenger.
Hasten! flee for your life! Look not
behind you lest you be overtaken and
destroyed. On though the feet bleed
and the heart strings culver. On, spite
of wearied limbs and shuddering MEM
cries and the sobs and pant of laboring
breath. Once get within the gates Of
the city of refuge and you are safe,
for neither Gods love nor mans will
ever, though all the world demand it,,
give up to his pursuers poor fugitive
slave. Daniel took refuge in the cleft Of
a rock and that rock was God.

An ofacer's Strange Conduct.

Officer J. A. Wilson may be subjected
to an investigation by the City Trus-
tees. 1t is alleged that a few days ago
he abused his wife, smashed his boy s
bicycle and raised big row in the
neighborhood of his home. His friends
say that these occasional outbreaks
are the result of i'll health. 1t is GER
tainly difficult to account for them, as
Wilson is generally known as a quiet
and kindly-natured man.
