Railroad Commission
Will Go TO Interstate 3
Commission

After many months of study on the
the state of Nevada Chairman Bartine
of the Railroad Commission will be-
gin the preparation of a petition to the
interstete Commerce Commission ask
ing that the desired terminal point be
established. The railroad companies
have been asked repeatedly to take
the matter but they have passed it
up to the interstate commerce COM
mission with the statement that they
had the jurisdiction in the case.
The petition to the interstate COM
merce commission will be in the
shape of relief for the State of Ne
vada by the order on the railroad
companies to give Nevada terminal
point and do away with the lack haul
which has cost the merchants of Ne
vada millions of dollars.
At the conference Saturday between
the commission and representatives of
the TOnopah and Goldfie}d railroad
company a postponement of the case
was taken until September list owing
to the fact that the annual reports of
the railroad are now in course of con-
struction and it is the desire of the
company to present them in the case
with the railroad commission who
is asking a reduction in the passenger
rates now in force of one cent a mile.

SUPREME COURT
AFFIRMS SENTENCE
Of Lower Court and Orders Date
of Execution Be Fixed
Forthwith

Today the Supreme Court Of the
State of Nevada handed down a de-
cision affirming the lower court and
ordering that the sentence of death
be imposed on Buckaroo Jack, the
Indian, be carried out and he be hung
at the Nevada State Prison at date
to be later fixed by the district court
from which the sentence of death
originally came.
The crime for which the Indian
must hang was committed on the 10th
day of April 1907 at Ok Sans place
about one half mile from Fort Nc
Dermont, Humboldt County, when the
indian murdered his wife in cold
blood.
The Indian was arrested for the
crime and convicted at Winnemucca
and sentenced to death. Bonnifield
and Bonniheld his attorneys, took the
case to the Supreme Court asking
for a new trial on the grounds that
the state courts had no jurisdiction

the lights were again burning. That
all three transformers were not de

A bolt of lightning struck the high

the main fuses and putting the city

in the case as the crime was COM
mitted or a government reservation.
The Supreme Court in sustaining the
lower court states that the fact that
the crime was committed on the res
ervation has not been proven but that
all evidence goes to show that the
affair took place one half mile from
government land.
In presenting thier case to the
Supreme Court the attorneys for the
condemned man presented it upon the
non -jurisdictional grounLs and made
no defense as to the merits of the
case.
The decision of tho court is that
the lower court is affirmed and di-
rected to fix time and make all the
necessary orders for having it's SEN
tence carried into effect by the
Warden of the Nevada State Prison.

BUCKAROO JACK, INDIAN
MURDERER MUST HANG
TRIAL OF
STANLEY PEEK
Wife Tells Of Her Re-
Iations With Muir
dorod Man

RENO, July 13.-The trial of Stan
ley Peak for the murder of Angelo
Satero was resumed this morning in
the district court. A number of wit
nesses were recalled to the stand dur
ing the morning session and were
reeXamined on number of vital
questions. 1t is believed that the
case will go to the jury by tonight.
At the trial of Saturday Mrs Peek
wife of the accused man and the in
direct cause of the murder took the
stand and testified in behalf of her
husband. Her story was secured af-
ter many objections by the counsel
for both sides. In speaking of the
acts that led to the murder she told
the following story:
She said that Satero came to her
door at about 7:3O on the morning
of May 21st and knocked, calling her
/ by name twice; that she declined to
open the door until he assured her
he had message for her from Peek:
that she then arose from the bed and
unfastened the door, whereupon Sa-
tero opened the door and forced her
back to the bed. closing the door.
The witness described a fight that
followed during which Satero a num-
! Ter of scratches on his face and the
witness was badly bruised and mis-
| treated, until she managed 10 escape
to the hall of the house where she
screamed for the landlady, Mrs. Smith
and Carl Smith her son, who came
at her call.
Satero, she said, remained in the
room for a few moments and then
made his way from the house leaving
her with Mrs. Smith.
With the exception of salacious de.
tails this was the substance of her
testimony, bearing out the contention
that SaterO had committed a Grim
inal assault the morning of the 21st
of May
The state attorneys cross examined
the woman trying to prove that she
! had "ot retired until 6 o'clock that
morning, having been out all might
and also that during that time she
had been in the company of satc~o.
1t is said that this is the first t.~e
in the history of Washoe county tbar
a wife has been put on the witness
stand to confess herself for the benefit
ol her accused husband and the an
peal to the "unwritten law" so called
IS without precedent in this state tc

DEMOCRATIC ACTIVITY
A Call to Arms by the Washington
Evening Star, Prominent
RepuhIican journal

The announcement that Adiai Stew
enson will contest for the democratic
nomination for governor of Illinois is
another sign the republicans should
heed. They should get together.
Their divisions are so wide and so
we'll known the enemy everywhere is
heartened and much alive.
There is going to be a horse race this
year sure.
Mr.. Stevenson is in the seventies, in
comfortable circumstances and sur
rounded by troops Of friends. He has
been lucky in politics and the honors
he has received testify to his ability
and popularity. What brings him into
the field again? Why leave repose
so late in life for another plunge into
the deafening whirl Of political strife?
What is the answer?
Party duty and party prospects.
Once a politician, always a politician
Things look bright to Mr. Stevenson,
and he wants a share Of what he
thinks is coming With the republi
cans at war among themselves, not
bitterly so in Illinois, it is true, hut in
a number Of states-Mr. Stevenson is
among those veteran democratic OBJ
servers who are reading victory in
the stars. The democratic nOmina-
ton for governor looks good to him,
and he is going after it. At the same
! time if he secures it, his party in the
national race also in Illinois, will en-
| joy the prestige of his name.
| 1t was q like feeling that brought
! Judge Harmon into the field in Ohio.
Had things not looked so particularly
encouraging there he could never have
been pursuaded to offer for the gov
ernorship. Well placed at the bar and
with all the business he cared for, he
would not ordinarily have turned in
the direction of politics. But with the
republicans each at the others throat
all over the state the invitation to the
dance was irresistible and Judge Har-
mon has taken the floor. His name is
a souce of strength to his party, To-
cally and nationally.
Those who are conferIng at Oyster
Bay today cannot afford to shut their
eyes to these signs. If read Alright
racy is stirring. Judge Harmon is a
Clevelandite, and yet is lending his
name to a campaign which Mr. Bryan
is going to lead. Mr. Stevenson has
been all the .ces and Iinds no difficud
ty in supporting his party under an,
leadership on any platform. He i.
regular and he is popular. What are
the republicans going to do about it?
