Appeal from an order sustaining a de-
murrer and from the Judgment entered
thoreupOn.
The complaint in substance alleged
that defendant during the times men
toned was the Sheriff of Washoe Coun-
ty. That plaintiff during the same per-
iod was the owner of six thousand head
of sheep pasturing in Washoe County.
That defendant demanded the sum OF
three hundred dollars of plaintiff as a
license tax as such owner. That plain
tiff notified defendant that he was
the owner of 1896 acres of land in the
State of Nevada, Notwithstanding which
defendant threatened to enforce his de-
mand by process of law unless plaintiff
paid the license demanded. WhereupOn
plaintiff in order to avoid the detention
Of his sheep, agreed to and did deposit
with defendant the sum of three hun
dred dollars, to be retained 10y him ac-
cOrding to the terms Of the following re-
ceipt:
Reno, Nevada, April II. 1899,
Received Of A. linda Three Hundred
Dollars $500 on deposit until it is set
tied that said A. Inda is not liable for a
license on sheep and in case he is entitled
to run his sheep in WashOe County, the
money is to be returned to him.
w. II. NcInnis,
Sheriff of Wash0e County.''
The defendant retains the money for a
license upon the sheep mentioned and
refuses to return any portion of it to
plaintiff.
That a liceHse tax upon plaintiff on ac-
count of herding, grazing, pasturing or
owning sheep is without authority of law
and void.
Defendant demurred to the complaint
on the grounds that it did not state facts
sufficient to constitute a cause of actiOs,
and that the Court had no jurisdiction
thereof.
Plaiutiff should have averred in his
CONSTANT that the contingency men.
tionot in the receipt from the defendant
had occurred. This is in the nature of
condition precedent and must be averre(
in an action upon the contract. COunss
for appellant admit that this is the gen
eral rule, but claim that it is not applica
BILE in this case because of the aver
ments of ownership in plaintiff Of 53@'
acres Of and in the State, and that TIN
license tax Oh sheep is illegal.
But the obligation of defendant is t.
return the money when ut is settled tina
plaintiff is not liable tor a license tax o
sheep" Defendant is liable only upo

GREAT GAME PROMISED.
Fats and Leans to Cross Bats Here
at An Early Day

A company of ball tossers of our
city, composed of good, Indifferent
and fair players have organized to
give a game here in the near future
for some charitable purpose.
We had a call yesterday from
two of the Leans" Messrs Humid
ley Sewer and Ofland Holiday, who
place us in possession of valuable
Information of the coming game.
These gentlemen explained the alb
sence of an envoy or representa-
tive from the 'fat side" of the
team, 6y saying that the journey
up the office steps was more than
they could undertake, and after
the apology, which was duly re
ceived, accepted and recorded in
our book of excuses, they proceeded
TO business.
They said that the two mines bad
been picked from the foremost
ranks of our city men who were
known to possess ability and stay
ing qualities, who were swift of
foot and good at catching things
on the sly. At this critical period
they banded the reporter the fol-
lowing list of the two mines with
their relative positions assigned:

SEVERE FIGHTING IN SOUTH AFRICA.

The action fought by the Kimberley relief
column under Gen. Methuen on Tuesday
| was preliminary to the passage OF the Modder
| River. which lie reports as in full food The
| Beers were found entrcnched on the
north bank. having two heavy guns and
four Krupp field pieces in position. their
force being said to number 5000, In
which would he included the commands that
were driven from Belmont and Enslin. The
action began on the part OF the British by a
continuous cannonade from the field batteries
and rifle fire from the infantry lining the south
bank OF tho Moddcr River. Under cover OF
this fire that lasted throughout the day the
British succeeded in getting a small force
across the stream through tho cxertions OF
the Engineers probably using pontoons or the
co!lapsible boats now in use in the British
army.
The Beers were eventually driven from their
position aud the British are no doubt by this
time established IN the north bank OF the
Modder aud pushing on to Kimberley. From
the river they have still some twenty-five
miles to march before they come In touch
with the Kimberley garrison. and the Beers

which the Gar has ordered to be built. are
all prepared and the expenditure thus far
authorized is So, 100, 900.
The agreement between China and Russia
provided that the port Of Talien-wan should
be maintained for the benefit Of all who
reside in or trade with the Far East, and in
his order OF August last the Car declared
that II was to be absolutely free port. In
that proclamation the Car said: I'VE have
succeeded In attaining our historic aim a
rapprochemcnt between the peoples OF the
West and East"
The fact that her great European ports
are on landlocked waters whose outlets to
the ocean are In foreign hands has affected
Russia's trade policy profoundly. So
eager Is Russia to produce herself oil
that her people consume that she main
tains a heavy import tax upon many
articles OF which the home supply Is still
the Government has decided to admit free
for limited period some classes OF agri-
cultural machinery that are sorely needed
and are not yet produced in the country.
4 Numerically opposite policy is pursued
in eastern Siberia. whose vast mineral and
agricultural resources require machinery
and other aids which European Russia can
not yet supply Vladivostock is one OF the
frcest ports in the world. Only few
articles like petroleum and alcoholic prod
ucts are required to pay duty. But Rus
sia does not expect always to maintain
open doors on its Pacific coast. The
year 1909 has been fixed as the limit
OF the free trade policy on the Asian coast
81 the empire. the idea being that the devel-
opment Of Russian and Siberian manufac-
lures and the completion Of the Trans
Siberian railroad will by that time enable
tho home manufacturers and farmers to
produce everything that IL needed for tho
further development OF the vast domain Of
tho Gar.
Meanwhile Russia is securing a firm hold
upon the Chinese market and commercial
rivalry cannot deprive her OF her geograph-
ical advantage in developing this field
But the policy Of the open door, which the
Car himself has announced for the port Of
1'alien-wan. will prevail throughout the
entire region and competition will not. he

cent. The selling Of bonds is indeed,
left to the discretion OF the Secretary OF
the Treasury, but his duty In regard to II
should be more explicitly defined.
Power is also given to the Secretary in
his discretion to exchange gold coin for
ANY other money issued by the United
States" This seems to embrace the silver
dollars, but sllverite Secretary might
think otherwise and in the exercise OF his
discretion refuse to give gold for them.
This possible silverite Secretary has been
the great bugbear Of the currency reform
ers. and II his power for mischief is to be
destroyed no discretion should be given
him in regard to the matter.
The provisions Of the bill relating to the
issue OF bank notes virtually amount to
paying tho national banks bonus of .
per cent. and more per annum for issuing
currency which they can lend out for all the
interest they can get The nation is to
guarantee the notes. redeem them on de-
mand, assume their payment when the
banks issuing them fail and, besides, to
pay interest on the bonds deposited as Sc
curity for the notes. Why the nation should
not issue the notes directly. Itself, and can
eel an equal amount OF bonds, VIC should be
glad to hear explained.
Many other matters In the bill call for
unfavorable comment, but wo let them pass
for the present.
