A CONTEST IN THE LBGISLA-
TURB.

There is bound to be lively contest
in the Legislature over the representa-
tion Of Storey county. The last Legis-
lature cut off one Senator and two AS
semblymen from Storey county, reduc-
ing her representation to one Senator,
who is at present hold-over and four
Assemblymen. To equalize matters,
Washoe county was given an addition
al Senator and Humboldt Elko and
Lincoln counties each an additional
Assemblyman. The constitutionality
of the act was questioned and to test
its validity friendly suit was brought
by the District Attorney of Storey
county before the Supreme Court, with
the result that the act was upheld. In
spite of that fact, however, Storey has
elected her old quota and will send them
to Carson in February, while each of
the other counties mentioned have
elected an additional representative in
accordance with the law. The Legis-
lature will have to decide which of the
contestants are entitled to the seats.
a decision which will without doubt be
entirely influenced by politics. As the
Storey county contestants are all Re-
publicans and the men elected by the
other counties are all Democrats, there
is very little question as to how DEM
ocratic Legislature will decide.

Sam Davis, our State Controller, de-
sends IRON the dignity of his position
to crow in the columns of his paper,
the Carson Appeal, over the defeat OF
Senator Comins. As Sam has proba-
bly, put up more jobs to get his fist into
the public funds than any other man
in the State, and has been repeatedly
frustrated by the watchfulness of our
Senator, his motives in the present case
are easy to interpret. 1t is not quite so
easy to tell what job he is working on
now, but it viii come out in the next

and in declining said: 81 shall remain
In Lincoln and IN the future, as in the
past, defend with tongue and pen the
principles which | believe to be right
and the policies believe to be wise "
This man has been called a dema-
gogue, but we do not believe it. Il
was the evident sincerity of the man
that enabled him TO spring from OBJ
security to renown in the few short
months of the campaign of 1896; it was
the same sincerity that prevented him
from dropping unpopular ISSUES in 1900,
aud accomplished his second defeat.
History alone will tell whether he has
been right or wrong, but in his I'M
swerying adherence to what he believes
to be right in the face of temptations
to retreat such as few men could have
resisted he has shown himself to pos
sess the elements of true greatness. He
may never be nominated again by the
Democratic party, but he will always
remain the idol of the people in the sill
yer mining States, whose cause he so
ably advocated.

Grand Jury at Morgahtown Brings

Special to the Register.
MORGANTOWN, w. Va, June 49,
The report of the grand jury made
this morning has created a sensation
N Morgantown. 1t brought in two in
dictments against Frank B. Bannister,
formerly connected with the Seneca
Glass Factory. He recently retired
from this company although he re-
NAMED a heavy s%tockholder and or
gained a new company which has
just completed a large factory for the
manufacture of glass.
Charles T. Boehler succeeded him as
secretary of the Seneca and it is al
legged, discovered discrepancies in the
books. AS a result of the investiga-
ton set or foot Bannister was indicted
twice on felony charges this morning.
One of the charges is making false
entries and embezzlement and the
other, obtaining money under false
pretense.
1t is alleged that he made the com
pany pay him royalties for the use of
certain machinery which he claimed to
have patents on and after he had left
il was found that he had no patents
on it whatever. He is also alleged to
have falsiied the books and taken
money that did not belong to him,
giving orders to the treasurer, who
was his father, to issue him the
checks.
Bannister is a very prominent man
here and the affair has created a ire
mendous sensation. He gave bond in
the sum of one thousand dollars in
each case with Col. Jos. McDermott as
surety.
He denies the allegations and his
friends state that it is the result of
soreness, caused by his leaving the
old company that has led to the pro-
ceeding against him.
