asinn Of The Four

MIR. Campbell Stratton in the char
acter Of Sherlock Holmes in TIE Sign
of the Four" will be at Grand Opera
House wednesday night. The play is
iulI Of unusual situations and in the
third act the interest grows SO In
tense that V the smallest boy in
the gallery sits breathless, too abb
sorbed to even hiss the villain. This
act is described as one of the most
thrilling scenes of modern melo-drama.
Mr.. Campbell stratton, the young star
of the company in his presentation OF
the great detective, gives a character
study of today and so closely does he
gain a hold upon his audience that
they really live with him through all
the thrilling adventures of the play.
Mi. Stratton has always been known
as one of the few actors Of today, witt;
real personal magnetism. That IS
why he has been so successful in his
rendition of the character of Sherlock
Holmes. Unlike most young stars. he
has surrounded himself with a clever
company of we'll known people, includ.
ing Miss Gay Reah.

are bits of "Sau Toy" which remind

DON'T BLAME THE GAMBLER.

THERE is no denying the fact that Nevada created an unenyia-
1 BILE reputation for herself when she lent the gamsters OF the
state additional privileges by special act of legislature. We say
"Ient" because the most cursory observer cannot fail to note the
counter current of public opinion that increases in force as the eff
tects of the measure ere noted.
After all is said and done, gambling, which is deemed both a
luxury and necessity, according TO the individual, is a good deal
like any other item, it is governed very largely by the demand,
both III its regulation and manner ofsupply.
The gambling methods now in vogue in this state are OF a
primitive nature calculated to appeal tt the workingman. There
are those who claim that Just SO long as the demand exists among
this class their desires will be e%ratifed.
The desire to get something without working for it or giving
a value in return, persists cheeriuly in the human heart. 1t
makes leeches of men, who become revolving to the better regula-
ted community as they lose the desires that form thrift, honesty
and industry.
Nevadas legislative step oflast winter was the natural sequel
to the conditions that demanded it, and must remain legalized
upon our statute books until Il force of higher ideals shall come
into power.
In the meantime slot machines will play, the ivory ball will
roll and the marked card men will cater to our abundant harvest
of suckers. Elsewhere, the bookmakers will fleece their thousands
and the bulls and bears will continue along their stupendous lines,
all contributing their share towards bightirg happiness and
wrecking homes, until the day of the morahsts millennium shall
be at hand, when it is hoprd that mans feeling for man will kill
the desire to pIer.
Until then lie will consist Target, of gamble, and while we
talk voluninousIy Of SUPPRESSION of the traffic, tie men who work
their games should noe be blamed, but we, who lack the necessary
intelligent action to defend our scruples.
THE testimony in the case of The State OF Nevada VS.. ". G.
Hogan, the Hazn thug, who was tried in Justice Andersons
court last week for robbery, developed the fact that six of the
jointkeepers of IIazen saw Hogan asleep in his virtuous little
trunde bed at the time the robbery occurred, while the three
victims positively identified Hogan as the robber. The saloon
mems testimony would indicate that they exercised most com.
mendable vigience over the sleep of their protegc. Judge An.
derson is to be commended for giving the complaining witnesses
the preference in the evidences submitted, as abettors of robbery
could not establish an alibi, if they numbered n thousand.

EDITORIAL COMMENT
NEVADA GETS A HARD DEAL.
W. c. Black, Editor

THE fundamental principle of all railroad companies operat-
! ing in America is to charge all the traffic vii bear but
nowhere in this great land is greater injustice worked than in
this state. The railroad company is hailed as the developer OF
territory, but the development has been followed IN Nevada by
the despoiIation of tie rights ofits inhabitants.
The state of Nevada is today paving the railway companies
oneratine within lis borders greater dividends than that received
by any like amount Of trackage in the West. In the meantime we
are forced to submit to the highest local freight and passenger
rates in America. while transcontinental freight can be hauled to
coast terminal points and back to Nevada, as cheaply as they
can be hauled into the state direct, In view OF these facts there
is being DISPLAYED by Nevadans more than a passive interest in
President Roosevelts latest declaration that there must be a
more equitable adjustment of the freight rates of the nation.
The rights of the state of Nevada have long since been lost in
the shuttle and its lawmakers have not only received nothing but
passes, but they have asked less. They have never had the
slightest realization of the Importance of the question, They
state was checked and limited in its growth by the handicaps in
ficted by the Central Pacific by its denial of an impartial service,
or the giving Of opportunities with even a semblance of equality
when compared with those given coast terminal points. We have
been isolated and entirely at the mercy of the giant railroad cor
pora1ion, which has inflicted tribute that would despol a king
dom. In speaking in this vein of the states body Of lawmakers,
we speak in a general way. True, there have been individual eff
forts to effect favorable changes, but through a lack of co opera
ton they have always failed.
Neither is there any hope displayed by the announced building
of the Western Pacific, which will be merely the result of another
giant corporations efforts to reach the Pacific. The two roads
will work for their own interests in common, and the compacts
in active force between all railway corporations will hardly allow
ofany change of remedial nature for Greater Nevada, whose
geographical location is such that she must be at the mercy of
the railway companies, until an interstate commission or the
states law makers shall effect the desired changes.
In the meantime if Mr.. Roosevelt is carrying any concealed
weapons about his person Nevada will take both barrels and
never ninch.
