NEVADA.

Hon. WILLIAM H. Parker, as
semblyman-elect from Lander
county, is out in card in the
Austin ReveiIe, calling upon his
constituents to tell him how to
vote on the lottery amendment.
A member of the legislature who
does not know that the State is
opposed to lottery is indeed in a
bad way. The Gazette will re-
spectfully refer the honorable
gentleman to the vote taken a few
years ago when the proposition
was before the people.-Gasefte.
If the State is opposed to the
lottery, then what in thunder is
the Gazette running several col
umns day against it for. If the
people do not want it, it cannot
be forced upon them.
Mr.. Hamilton's error seems to
be in seeking the instruction of
his constituents instead OF the
Reno Gazette. Every legislator
has the right to ask for an ex-
preston of sentiment of those who
elect him. If they wish to vote
for a bill he should do so. and if
they are opposed to it he should
also oppose it.
The people of the entire State
have the right to express them
selves in regard to this, or any
other important proposition, re-
gardless of what has been done in
the past or what any newspaper
may advise.-.NeWs.

CALIFORNIA papers are oppos-
ing the proposition to license a
lottery in Nevada on highly moral
grounds-the grounds that if Ne
vada had lottery many Califor-
mans would invest in tickets and
their money would find its way
into Nevada. 1t is nothing new
to see the spirit of avarice crop
out in the California press when
anything is on the tapis to bring
money into this State, but the
strange part of the play is to see
Nevadans standing in to keep any
thing from coming Nevada's way.
This is such a common occurrence
that it would not surprise us to
learn that Nevada money was be-
ing placed where it would do the
most good in California to keep
the Californians from tossing a
quarter over the line.

The sudden death of Hon. X. w. Nor

friends A week ago Mr.. Morrow CON

previously, and al his death large mum
Der of his friends had scarcely heard of
his illness. Mr.. Morrow was born in
Jefferson county on July 81, 1858, and
had resided here all of his life, with the
exception OF short time spent in the
West. de began life as q public school
teacher and taught in the schools OF this
county for Number of years, at the

Mr.. Morrow was always a prominent
democrat, but during the existence of
the Farmers Alliance he conducted his

Since the organization collapsed he Wig
orously fought for the cause of Democ-
racy. de began his public life in 1896.
when he was Candidate from Jefferson

nomination. In 1898 he was elected a

Chrtstmas-Ths Season OF Giving
Next Tuesday will occur the an.
uivsrssry Of the nativity of Christ.
While, according to the teachings of
the New Testament, Christ's mission
was to bring life unto all under the
sentence of death because of the
trsnsgression of our first parents
"for ~ in Adsm all died, so in Christ
shall all be made slive,"-perhaps
the most beautiful and best preserved
custom handed down to as for ages
from this anniversary is the one of
giving. 1t is season in which all
seem to learn that it Is more blessed
to give than to receive, aud young
and old for a time seem to get nearer
to each other on this great Joy day of
the year. Il is in the heart of every
one to keep green this happy custom,
and the lives that are made brightest
by it are those of children.
The several Sunday Schools of this
place will observe the special ceIe-
bration of giving to the children on
the days and at the hours hereinaf-
ter named, as follows:
Methodist Church-Mondsy, Dec
oath, at 3 pm.
Episcopal Church-Monday. Gath, 4
