Comparatively few wholesale dealers

the local produce exchange held Satur-
day. 1t was short day for most of the
fraternity for business, and many wanted
to check up and prepare for a rest at
home.
Trade was brisk in all lines. especially
for fresh fruits, which were pretty well
cleaned up by the noon hour. Early
sales were large and numerous.
Potatoes show a rising tendency in
value. One dealer sold nearly 70 sacks of
fancy Salinas spuds at S225 sack, which
Is % cents above the official quotation.
The same dealer received SlG0d175 for
fancy Highlands, and $l50dl.60 for me-
dum grade potatoes.
There was no disposition Saturday to
disturb the quotations on butter and aggs.
They are believed to be about right, In
view of the active demand. 1t Is known
that while local ranch eggs are jobbing at
45c a dozen officially, some of the deal
ers sell to customers at 4Sc dozen.
Eastern eggs form large factor in the
daily consumption, the jobbing price be-
ing 3Sc ii dozen.
The fish dealers had an abundance of
small stock on sale. Two thousand

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 3.-The fol-
lowing were the closing quotations for
The daily silver state. [volume] (Winnemucca, Nev.) 1903-1907, 1906-05-23
YARNS ABOUT THE YIsAsTER

Historians of the disaster of San
Francisco should no tail to note, as
a peculiar phenomena of the evnt, the
grotesquely exaggerated reports of the
calamity that was sent, as at first,
to the press all over the world, and the
numerous ingeniously contrived, but
wholly untrue, stories, athletic or hum
orous, which have been published blythe
newspapers outside the State as YER
acious accounts of the incidents at
tending the destruction of the city.
The excitement of the time seems to
have been aroused to volcanic activity
the i~maginations o fthe people. Most
amazing fictions were generated spon-
taneously and, passing from mouthe to
mouth among a populace excited al
most to hysteria, accumulated detail and
obtained credence as they moved
The first news sent to some of the
eastern papers that the earth
quake had sunk half of San Francisco
into the ocean, that portion of the city
submerged was burning, and that the
Berkeley hills were the only place of
refuge and security. The same report
stated that $4,000 dead bodies had
been recovered, but did not say how
or by whom. This preposterous story,
The daily silver state. [volume] (Winnemucca, Nev.) 1903-1907, 1906-05-23

necessary to even hint that this bad
work must be ended, not only for the
of enterprise from within and without.
"The law provides but one way for
the prevention of crime, and that one
consists in the strict enforcement of
the penalties which should be meted
out to evil-doers. But it takes more
than a court TO make the penal laws
eficacious, without the aid of a jury
the court is as helpless a ga child. All
I ask is that the law-abiding citizens
of the community when called as jurors
will do their part toward the enforce
ment of the law, and I shall do the
rest. I will make the taking of human
life and other crimes a pasttime to be
followed by dire consequences to the
guilty"
Judge Breen has calmly, yet forcibly,
divulged to the people of Nevada the
real cause for the prevalencv of crime,
and the lightness with which human
life is held by the vicious.
All over the United States Nevada
is looked upon as a "frontier' state,
where outlawry fourishes and crime
is c%ondoned, while in reality Nevada is
enlightened and as progressive as any
state in the union-except in this one
thing
Largely this crying disgrace upon the
otherwise fair name of the state is
due to civic Indifference. State pride
is not lacking as a whole; but in some
communities, especially in TIE mining
camps of the southern part of the
tsate, the majority of the citizens are
too engrosed in the chase after fortune,
their perceptibilities too greatly blunt
ed by the lust of gold to permit of due
consideration of society.
The daily silver state. [volume] (Winnemucca, Nev.) 1903-1907, 1906-05-23

In other communities the fault lies III
political systems that have OK
listed so long that the machine leaders
look upon themselves as dictators ana
the people as their bounden slaves n
where .iuPstice is often sacrificed be-
cause it 80 suits the Hpowers that be-
There can be but one remedy in Doth
instances. The people must set the
stamp of disapproval upon all lawless-
ness by so arranging things through
the medium of the all-powerful ballot
that crime cannot flourish without the
exercise of proportionate justice.
AS Judge Breen has pointed out, the
people are in great measure response
bic. And, once the people grasp TINS
black truth they will rise in their might
and stamp out the pernicious condi-
tions that embolden murderers and
make murder common in the state of
Nevada. q EiT

corrected as o as the regular cor
respondents were able to send out dis
patches and, after the first day, the
reports in the eastern press were re.
markably the same, accurate coherent
and vivid. The New York Sun the
New York Evening Post and the fhli-
adelphia North American had from the
first notably good series of dispatch
es from San Francisco.
Many of the less responsible or less
careful papers seem to have printed
any story that was conveyed to them
even by vaguest rumor and no matter
how intrinsically preposterous. One one
paper, for instance, published as a true
story of a soldier of the regular army
who shot down an old woman because
she, defying hi 8 order, crossed a
"dead line' to get a cup of water
for a dying man. Having made this
stern sacrifice to duty, the sentry de
claring that his own mother would have
done, in the same circumstances, what
the old woman whom he shot had done,
turned his own rifle against his own
body and killed himself.
Another story told in the east was
that of a lieutenant who, iwth a squad
of men having caught six thieves
looting while the fire was burning. com
PEELED the thieves to dig six graves
and then had them shot down and the
bodies tossed into the pits and cover
ed with earth
Yarns of this sort while deing no
very great harm, are offensive o only
because they are lies, but also because
they convey false impressions of a time
that surely was terrible enough ana
does not need to be touched up with
invented horrors.
Who were the authors of these tales
and what motive prompted thems The
inquiry. is worth undertaking as a psy-
chologic study of mendacity. Were the
yarns fabricated in cold blood by the
needy and ~unscupulous scribblers to
make saleable copy or were they
the product of inflamed but not dis
honest fancies brought to editors of
the kind that prints before investiga'
ting lest the facts when discovered
should spoil a good story.-San Fran

MURDER IN NEVADA: The CAusE

The prevalence of murder in til
state of Nevada and the frequency
with which the perpetrators get or
scot free or are enabled to escape with
light sentences are dealt with abb
and sensibly by District Judge Breen,
holding court in Tonopah.
The court had just suffered the hum;l-
iation of being compelled to pass 4
another in the back because TIE jury
left nothing else for Judge Breen to
do.
In passing sentence upon Jack Her
nessey, convicted of manslaughter,
Judge Breen Saturday touched upoa
this point and very plainly intimate !
that the people themselves were in a
measure to blame for it., as they were
sow to enforce full penalty allowed by
law in such cases. His honor said:
I'm this case, for reasons best
known to themselves, the jury, with
their verdict of guilty of manslaughter,
requested the court to be lenient to the
defendant.
cit is in the province of a jury ur-
dor kLn 1arx - lo+~o L. x-o~ltot
the guilt or innocence of one charged
with crime; it is the duty of the court
to pronounce judgment. The court
however, shall keep in mind the recon
mendation to leniency in this case.
GA careful review of the evidence
impels the court to say that a littls
more consideration on the part of the
defendant for human life would have
enabled him to avoid the dreadful
