Worthy Bills.

worthy Bills.
The members Of the Legislature repre-.
sensing Eureka county, now in session ct
Carson, have been asked to support the fol-
lowing measures, the frat Of which, IL psss-
ed. would greatly lessen the burden now
placed on Eureka county as regards the
salary of the District Judge:
A bill to re-spportion the salary paid the
Judge of the Third Judicial District. which
is now spportioned as follows: Eureka
county, 5000; Lander county. sl,37s; Nye
county. $579. As Nye is the most prosper
Gus county In the district, and under the
present law pays . very small proportion Of
the Judges salary, it is thought to be only
fair and just that . law be passed that will
enable Nye county to pay its just proper
sion Of the District Judges salary.
A bill which will provide for the publics-
tion or posting Of . list Of the names Of all
persons who have paid . poll tax during
each year.
A bill requiring the publication Of ell ex-
penses incurred for grand and trial Jurors.
and oil moneys allowed by the Courts for

The Lovelock Tribune says: Several
thousand acres of new land will be put in
cultivation this year. Most of this will
be in wheat. but as fast as the land can
be leveled the farmers are seeding to
alfalfa. If the river keeps up till late In
the Summer much land can be put in
alfalfa after wheat is cut. Alfalfa is the
crop for this valley, and it will always
command a good price while the people
of San Francisco like good beef.

HOW THE "BEE" PUTS IT.

Two High School boys at Petaluma
have been suspended because they kissed
two High School girls who "went to the

OF the surrounding country"
That was very naughty of those bad
boys. But henceforth the girls should
either be kept down stairs or else the
upper part OF the building should be
abolished.-Sacramento Bee.

who was inclined to look on the
bright side of things. THE man
was at work on land so poor that you
couldn't raise your hat on it, when a
stranger passed." said Mr.. Bsgley,
"and asked him about the crop pros

his condition. This nettled the
farmer, and be said: See here,

A wife often permits her ahsctlon
to blind her reason.
Regard for petty things cfsen will
dwarf q mans ambition.
A woman's love can became annoy
ing as we'll as burdensome.
Marrsige baeed on honest affection

Many women find happiness only

where exaggerated love OF self Is
found to exist.
To decide between love and duty
has caused hours Of worry to men as

The man with a vice wonders why
so many persons think it their duty
to make public the fact.
Man often shows the hard eide OF
his disposition to mark more strongly

War Inevitable.

Negotiations between Russia and
Japan, according to q view of the sit
ustion taken at Berlin, are not making
progress. Each side, it appears from
official information, will not yield on
essential preparation. Russia persists
in requiring the agreement that shall
not limit their respective spheres OF
supremacy and Japan declines to
consent to the general policy OF
drift, under which the Russian In
fantry will, the Japanese say, steadily
bear upon Corea and edge forward
until the time is ripe for acquiring a
part OF, or the whole country.
Japan, as previously cabled from
here, is determined. according to the
German view, to have a settlement
with Russia by treaty, by which they
both must abide or else, and the
threat is ever in the near background
hostilities will begin. The japanese
government seemingly makes no
particular concealmsnt from the
diplomatic crops at Pekin, of this
attitude, one impression being that
Japan is merely playing q diplomatic
game and another is that the govern
ment is in deadly earnest.
Russia's ever increasing military
preparation in the far east and Jap
ans nearly completed equipment, are
regarded as pointing to eithera settle
ment before December or to hositli-
ties. Jspan's orders for war material
placed in Germany, a year ago, and
since then have all been delivered or
are af ,at. Four Japanese officers
are bying war material and supervis-
ing the artillary construction at Essen,
