are capable of protecting incorporated
substances from bacteria, moisture,
and other agencies which bring about
decomposition. Thus TO make con.

groom is one of our most prominent
young men and one of whome Carson

The bride and groom wore natural
orange blossoms, and the parlor was
beautifully decorated with cut flowers.
The dinner table was made attractive
by boquets of carnations. The flowers
were sent to the bride by friends in
Haywards and san Francisco.
Loving friends and relatives were
generous in gifts of usefulness and
beuaty to the young people, but best
of all are the genuine good wishes and

ALPINE COUNTY
HASMANY JURORS

Numerous articles have appeared in
the past few weeks relative to the
possibilities of the Alpine county
murderer escaping punishment for
his crime. 1t is stated that by the de-
populate condition of that county
the venire of iurymen could eaily be
exhausted, if the condemned man ac-
quired the service of shrewd counsel
The law of that State does not allow
the District Attorney the right OF
change of venue and the case cannot
be transferred upon application of the
prosecution to another county and the
alleged murder will, thnslgo scot free
By consulting the last Great Regist-
er list of that county, we find that 1903
voters were there at the last election.
With a few exceptions, these men still
hold their residence in Alpine, which
gives that county as nearly a large
venire of trial jurymen as is drawn in
Douglas county.
BY information received from sew
eral of Alpine's leading citizens, il is
learned that there is but little doubt
but what the wheels of justice will
grind out a true verdict in this case.
Alpine county possesses law abiding
citizens as well as capable officers, and
the fickel public can rest assured that
they will be guided in this case by
the evidence introduced at the tria.

Facts MOrttlXnOWiu9

In order to show that newspaper
readers are not necessarily excluded
from jury duty, the following from
reported cases will be usef l.
The fact that jurors had formed and
expressed opinions as to the guilt of
defendant from newspaper accounts,
does not disqualify them where they
state that they can give defendant a
fair and impartial trial on the testi-
mony as it may be introduced before
them. State VS.. Forsha Mo. So :. W.

The first move will be to replace the
old cottonwood poles that arestill doing

pine pole that are To be furnished by
the Diamond sawmill. The line eX-
tending from Sheridan to Fairview
will receive the company's first con

fore bad weather sets in. Other sec
tions will receive attention as soon as
possible.
With the view of giving the sub

and those in Alpine county, night
service. all lines will be brought
directly to Gardnerville. This will
give much better satisfaction than the
inadequate system that is now being

can expect the company's desires TO
