standard than would be the case if
such a law did not exist and were not
enforced. ID is undoubtedly true that
the general quality of both coal oil and
gasoline now SOLD in the territory Is
considerably superior Ia that in use "a
year ago. This is due to the fact
that a more thorough INSPECTION. UNI

a"uguratcd i'm MAY. 1906. The territory
was divided into fourteen districts and
q resident deputy inspector was APP
pointed in each district A Specific
set of rules and regulations for the
guidance Of DEPUTY inspectors was
drawn up and each was furnished with
a fun set of testing Instruments. Most

demncd. resulting almost invariably in
no more such shipments to the points

A relaxation i'm the vigilance Of the
deputies naturally results in the ship

The oil companies are quick to re-

Uniform Divorce Law.

The president Of the United states
IN his message to congress ON Jan
nary 80. 1905. said:
The institution of marriage is of
course al the Nery foundation of
social organization ana an influences
that affect that institution are Of vital
concern to the people Of the whole
country. There is q widespread on
ViCtion that the divorce laws are Ian
eerously lax and indifferently admin
istercd I'm some of the states. resulting
in a diminishing regard FOR the n
tity Of marriage relation. The hope
is entertained that cooperation
amongst the several states can be see
cured to the end that there may be
enacted ugon the subject Of marriage
and divorce uniform laws. containing
an possible safeguards for the security
Of the family
And again in his message OF De
ccmber 3, 1906. he said.
AT present the wide differences Of
the laws of the different states on
this subject result in scandals and
abuses and surely there is nothing SO
vitality essential TO the welfare Of the
nation nothing around which the ma

1t is in suite of many handicaps
that the territorial militia is kept up

for their inability to pay that they

One of the Duo Is Owner of the Black

Local officers have unearthed what
they believe to have been a scheme
LOT the wholesale stealing of liquor
and cigars from several Ely business
houses. In fact, they have placed

man, and Blue Steele Williams. a
negro, on charges of burglary. The
quo are accused of being the men
VINO nave been robbing local stores
for some months past The latter is
the owner of the Black Diamond sa-
loon.
Last Wednesday night City Mar
shal Hudgens and Deputy Sheriff
GilDert saw the men in the vicinity
OF Mayor Clark's drug store, Their
actions were such as to excite the Of
ncers' suspicious and finally resulted
III thelf arrest. 1t is the opinion
that the two men were stealing a
number OF cases of liquor and boxes
OF cigars from the drug store. They
were seen in the rear of the store
between 9 and II o'clock and were
followed up High street to a tent in
back of the Black Diamond saloon.
In the tent were found several cases
of whiskey and number of boxes of
brandy
The two officers followed Burns
back toward the drug store and
watched him until he stepped in be-
tween two buildings. Then they had
him where they wanted him and an
officer closed in on the fellow from
each side.
After he had been placed in Jail
and the supply of liquor and cigars
had been recovered from the tent the
saloon was searched. In this resort
the officers found some more of the
liquor and several boxes of cigars.
The saloon keeper had evidently been
selling the goods over the bar.
In all $3.50 or $500 worth of goods
was stolen and cached in the tent.
For the past several months, local
merchants have complained of the
wholesale robbery of case goods and
cigars Not long ago Weber's saloon
and Graham's store were robbed.
A warrant has been issued charg-
ing the men with burglary. The
date for the preliminary examination
has not been set.
