NEVADA TO HAVE

Tract of Land Said to Have

whereby the Mormon church has Sc
cured control CT Il tract of $4,000 acres
of land in White Pine county, Nevada,
which will be used as a place OF settle
ment by members of the church. This
move is supposed to be in keeping
with the policy of the church whereby
colonies have been established in other
states and in Mexico and Canada. The
land in question lies in one of the best
sections of this state, and is tc be es-
pecially adapted for the raising of
grains.
This fertile tract has little attTac-
tions to those in Nevada who are after
land bearing lodges of precious metals.
but has been purchased by the Mormon;
church as an ideal location for a COM
munity settlement. In keeping with
the policy usually pursued in estab-
fishing a colony, it is stated here that
the tract will be subdivided into small
acreage farms and allotted to members
of the faith, who will make their homes
there, following agricultural pursuits
and paying for the land as they are
able. This. with the opening of arid
lands made useful by the recent Car
son-Truckee irrigation project at Fail

INVESTIGATION IS ORDERED
San Francisco Bar Association Takes
Notice of Action of Judge
Hebbard.

San Francisco, March San exciting
session of the San Francisco Bar asso-
citation was held tonight. About 100
prominent attorneys gathered to con-
slider the action of Superior Judge He'd
bard in granting a writ of error to
Abraham Ruef while the latter's trial
was pending in a court of coordinate
jurisdiction. Assistant District Attor-
Dey Heney made a sensational speech,
declaring that Judge Hebbard was un-
der the influence of liquor when he
granted the writ. and had been con-
stantly affected by intoxicants for the
past three years. Heney vehemently
declared that the actions of the attor-
neys for Ruef had been more RESPONSE
BILE than the conduct of Judge Hebbard.
Heney said that Ruef's attorneys had
deliberately taken advantage of Judge
Hebbard's condition to secure the writ
in order to Illustrate the progress Of
justice in Judge DUNES court. At
torney Dwyer followed in a fierce
speech along similar line.
Attorney Henry Ach. one of Ruefs
attorneys, denied that Judge Uebbard
was intoxicated when he made the Or
der for the issuance of the writ. Ach
then made a motion that the grievance
committee of the bar association IN
vestigate the action of Judge Dunno in
insisting upon proceeding with the
trial after a writ of error had peen is
sued by another court. This motion,
by vote, was laid OF the table.
The meeting decided that in view of
the nearness of the adjournment, OF the
legislature Impeachment proceedings
against Judge Hebbard would be fu-
tile. IL was voted to have the griev-
ance committee thoroughly investigate
