LEGISLATIVE GOSSiP
A Few of the Things Happening in
the Capitol Building

While the session is drawing to a
close and about all the bills of any
special Importance have been passed
here is still a vast lot of accumu-
ated business to dispose of an
hings are being rushed accordingly
The most important measure which
was before the two houses on We'd
nesday was a measure granting the
Goldheld Consolidated Water COM
pany franchise. The bill was rushed
through the senate in one day, and
the same evening was taken to the
assembly and hurried through that
body. In the haste, however, the bill
was not read the third time and up
on its final passage. As a conse
quence yesterday morning when there
was some question raised in regard
to the bill. the bill was ordered re
turned to the assembly and the speak
er ruled that it had not properly
passed that body and must be placed
Oh third reading The measure was
then made 4 special order for next

THE NEW JUDGESH|P
Fior. n. F. 6artine Of This City Slated
for the Appointment

Goldue,l Irlbune.-SinCc 7. y.
McCarran has announced that he viii
decline the appointment Of district
Judge for Nye county il has been
learned sub rosa that the next man
in line ior the office and virtually
slated ior it by the governor is eN
Congressman H. f. Bartine His
sole strength comes from the fac
that he stands very close to Senator
NeWlandS. The latter it was who
named him two years and half since
for candidate on the democratic ticket
ior supreme judge when he was de-
feated at the polls by Judge F. H.
Norcros5. Newlands defended the
nomination from the stump and in
touring the state his labOrs were
mostly in behalf Of Bartine.
Bartine was formerly republican.
He served in congress as such and
was an unsuccessful candidate for
reelection when Newlands was cleo
ted over him as a silver republican
Some time after that memorable
campaign they buried the ha;chet and
have been lying in the same political
bunk ever since. Their alliance has
gone further than that of mere iel-
low democrats. or silver republicans
as the case in the course Of events
may have been.
While little ii anything has bee1,
said OF what is Bartine's attitude TO-
wards Railways and other corpora
tiOns, it is of course we'll known
that Newlands inherited from the
Sharon estate a large block of South
ern Pacific stock and that as a legis
lator and citizen he has ever bee,
favorable to that company
The forthcoming appointment 0
Bartine is made possible by shar!
local fight that has been going OF
for Some time. 1t is between p. Z
keeler with strong democratic fol
lowing on one side, and Fred Da1
Wood and an equally strong follow
ing on the other Both were in tn
democratic harness last summer whe,
Wood bolted the convention becaus
his candidate for county commission
er was turned down. If either on
, would withdraw, the governor woul
most likely appoint the other but tha
seems out Of the question entirel,
Knowing the likelihood of Bartine'
appointment, McCarran's friends ar
trying to get him to reconsider an
accept the office. That is somewha
in the nature of resentment for tn
advent of Newlands and "Billy
Sharon as a factor in Nye count
politics, a force that has ruled i
Storey county and elsewhere in tn
state for many years.
