THIS APPLIES TO NEVADA.

The San Francisco Chronicle has an
editorial about the conditions in Cafifor-
MIA that applies to Nevada with greater
force than it does even to our sister
commonwealth. and is herewith repro
duced:
The Epsey anti-pool selling bill has
passed the Assembly and Ralston's anti
prize fight bull has passed the Senate.
1t only remains for each House to adopt
the bill of the other to make it possible
for the decent people of California to
redeem the State from its disgraceful
reputation as the paradise of thugs and
gamblers. These are bills which ordi-
more quickly and more ~abundantly than
any other measures, but the rotten ele-
ment is just now so thoroughly cowed
that nobody is likely to risk the chance
of going to States prison. The gambling
element is very strong in some parts of
the State. and is, of course, represented
IA AAC NaN ~ - NANN
other influences are more powerful. Re-
gardless of questions of decency there is
politics in these bills. me Republican
majority in the legislature is so over
whelming tat it cannot possibly escape
responsibility for all legislation. The
issue of decency having been squarely
ruixQd IN both hnnSQS the Rannhliran
party cannot avoid declaring either for
it or against it. There is no question
that an overwhelming majority of the
people desire the suppression of prize
fights and of pool selling ON horse races.
If the Republican legislature responds to
public opinion on this question of decency
1t will do more to strengthen the party
in this State than is possible by any
other means.
A great many people feel very deeply
on this subject. For years We nave seen
public and private service utterly de-
bauched by pool selling on morse races
and prize fights. A large portion of the
youth of this city habitually spend all
their earnings in the pooi-selling dens,
n a great number, when their own
money is gone, steal that of their en-
ployers if they can get at it. Gamblers
support pool selling because gambling is
their trade. That is to be counted on.
Some who are not gamblers still refrain
from opposing the poolrooms because. as
they imagine. they keep money in cir
culation." Probably they DO. They keep
money out of savings banks. out of
homes. out of comforts for the family.
out Of independent legitimate business.
and put 1t to circulating among gam
blers and their victims and among all
the resorts of vice which are frequented
by the gambling classes. That does not
help the country. 1t does not build up
San Francisco or California. On the con
trary. 1t does both infinite injury by Civ
ing us the reputation OF a community
into which decent. law-ablding and
thrifty people will not knowingly come
California has suffered more from the
various forms of gambling prevalent In
this State than from all other causes
combined. Pass these two bills now be.
fore the legislature and get rid of this
incubus.

ACCOUNTANTS ARE BUSY
They Rush the Work at Behest of
Advisory Board.

Governor Hoch has stirred up the
state treasury investigators to unusual
activity, and there is now force of
four bookkeeperS. in addition to Ac-
countant Morris, working on Treasurer
Kelly's books.
1t is said that the advisory board
and Governor Hoch were inclined to
be considerably dissatisfied with the
progress which had been made in the
investigation. They called Mr.. Morris
before them, and asked him if he
could not do something to hasten the
completion of the work. Mr.. Morris
said that he was using all the assist
ants for whom he could find profitable
employment, but since that time, there
seems to have been increased oppor-
tunity to rush the job.
Mr.. Morris is doing his work in the
rooms of State Accountant Gafford in
the west wing of the basement. Long
tables are being utilized for the pur-
pose of spreading out immense sheets
of paper, which appear to be tabulated
forms which are being rapidly hlIed
out with figures taken from the big
volumes secured at the office of the
state treasurer. Nothing is known as
to the general plan of Mr.. Morris
work except that he is supposed to be
State Accountant Rowett, and much
more besides.
A prominent state politician said
yesterday: s'If this Haskins & Sells
investigation fails to show any irregu-
larities in the office of state treasurer,
the public should demand the publica-
ton of the Rowett report If Mr..
new firm, fails TO find anything wrong,
it simply shows that either he or
Rowett is mistaken, and the public has
a right to know which,.

BEULAH PARKER A SUCCESS.
Topeka Girl Called Vocal Wonder by
Maurice Levi.

Another Topeka girl has made hit
in the east. Miss BeuIah Parker.
whose father, H. H. Parker, lives at
1925 Kansas avenue, has been tried
out" by Maurice Levi at the Music Hall
in New York, and pronounced a vocal
wonder The following is taken from
the Morning Telegraph of August 1:
zone of the newcomers knocked
Maurice Levi off his piano stool while
he was trying her voice. She is Miss
Beulah Parker. a young girl from
Kansas. who is said to be the most
beautiful girl ever seen on the stage of
Weber's, and the owner of a really re-
markable soprano voice. So great
was Mr.. Lewis pleasure at his dis
covery that he announced before the
entire company that before Miss Park
er had been on the stage six months
she would be placed under contract to
play prima donna parts in some first
class comic opera company She's
the biggest find in a good many years,

SHERIFF TOO QUICK.
j. K. KiIford Shot Dead at Mcfarland
on Monday.

j. K Kilford, one-sixteenth
Cherokee Indian, was killed by Sheriff
H. C. Erickson, of Wabaunsee county,
Monday afternoon. Sheriff Erickson
caught the man at Mcfarland, five
miles east of Alma. He had a descrip-
ton of Kilford, who is wanted in the
Cherokee nation, I. T., for murder. The
man had a bad reputation, as given in
his description, and Sheriff Erickson
was wary when he approached. He
got the drop on his man, and ordered
him to throw up his hands, but instead
of complying with the order, the out
law drew his revolver. Erickson did
not fire until Kilford had his own
pistol out of the holster. but the
sheriff's bullet stopped further pro-
ceedings.
Kilford fell with a bullet through the
body, and died at 10 o'clock last night,
eight hours after being shot.
Sheriff Lucas left Topeka today for
Alma, taking with him George Park
er, a North Topeka negro, who claims
to know KiIford.

The People Believe the Fever
viii Be Stamped Out
At New Orleans Before the
Frost Comes.

The general situation, so far as the
fever itself is concerned, is considered
to have shown considerable improve
ment. Although new foci are appearing
here and there, it is still looked upon as
being held within bounds and DR.. White
regards this as showing practical re-
suits from the organization recentlv
formed
New cases in New Orleans, 4; total
cases to date, $50. Deaths in New Or
leans, 2; total deaths, lis; new cases in
Louisiana, outside New Orleans, %.
Deaths in state, outside New Orleans. 3.
There was no material change in the
fever situation in New Orleans up to
noon today. The number of new cases
and deaths was small but considerable
suspicious sickness was reported. There
are now 80 cases of this nature under
investigation. The weather today is

| New Orleans, Aug s-Some .proba-
bility exists that there will shortly be
considerable relaxation of quarantine
restrictions In Louisiana. Governor
Blanchard is urging President Souchon
OF the state board of health to take
! steps toward that end and DR.. Souchon's 8
energy in the matter is already begin
4 ming to show results, his intimatfon of
litigation in st. Landry having so modi-
| fed the quarantine in that parish that
1t is to be opened to all freight for
! warded in fumigated cars.
/ Governor Blanchard says he is receiv-
ing complaints of suffering from many
parts of the state. Medicines, ice and
| coal and many other necessarieE are
| wanted. and there is a demand every
where for mail service. The marine
hospital service is to send representa-
tives to attend conferences of various
health boards to explain the mosquito
theory. to show that the mosquito can
not be transmitted by freight and to
urge uniformity in the quarantine regu-
lations.
| An appeal has been sent by President
Gonchaux and Secretary Mayo of the
Progressive Union to the managing edi-
tors of leading newspapers asking them
to guard their columns against alarmist
reports and grotesque exaggeration of
the situation here. No complaint is made
against the publication of full facts of
the local conditions but it is not de-
sired that false ideas of the situation
should be spread broadcast. Full con-
fidence is expressed in the ability of the
federal government to stamp out the
disease before frost.

ARE WAKING Up.
People Appreciate Importance
of Good Roads.
Two Hundred Delegates Attend
Annual Meeting.
WILL TALK OF OIL.
California System of Road Max
ing to Be Discussed.
Only Kansas Talent to Take
Part This Time.

People must be taking more interest
in the Good Roads movement this year
judging from the fact that over 200 dele
gates were at the first meeting
of the Kansas Good Roads as
sociation which began it's second annual
convention at the Commercial club
rooms this afternoon.
I'VE have a fine attendance said
Secretary Graham with great glee 1T
shows that interest is becoming much
more marked. This is surely a Kansas
affair. We did not go outside of the
state to get talent for our papers, but
got it all right here at home. The big
men on our programme are w. +.
Rightmire, the we'll known oil man of
the Uncle Sam company, one of the
biggest concerns in the business; Presi-
dent Nichols Of the Kansas State Agri-
cultural college, and Professor Erasmus
Haworth of Kansas university.
You see the big event of our present
convention is the idea of putting oil on
common dirt roads as they do in Cali
fornia, and in that way making cheap
yet very fine roadways. Mr.. Rightmire
and H. w. McAfee of this city will
speak to US on that subject at our
meeting tonight, while President Mich
OILS, who has charge of an appropriation
to put oil on country roads from the
state, will discuss the topic on Wednes-
day afternoon. Professor Haworth will
talk on Good Roads Material DR.. J.
c. McClintOck is on the programme for
tonight, to talk about reclaiming roads.
so you see that we have nothing but
Kansas talent. We thought that we
would just try that for year and see
what the results are. The people here
IN Kansas know the conditions and
therefore can talk about them more
specifically. We are going to have
great meeting
The programme began this after
noon at o'clock. Committees were
appointed and the reports of officers
heard and some papers read. At 5
O'Clock this afternoon the visiting dele
gates were the guests of the Topeka
Commercial club in a trolley ride over
the city. and especially to Christ hos
pital and Washburn college, at each of
which places some successful road
building has been done
At 8 o'clock tonight the programme
at the Commercial club will consist of
papers by Professor Haworth, w. F.
Rightmire, DR.. J. c. McClintock and
H. w. McAfee.
On Wednesday morning at 9
O'Clock the reading of papers will be
resumed. Enough are on hand to oc-
cupy the entire day On Wednesday
evening the delegates after adjourn
ment will be driven over the city in
automobiles and carriages.
| The officers are Grant Bilbee of
