The defendant through his counsel
waived time and asked that sentence
be passed, but Judge Brown set Monday
at 10 o'clock as the time for passing
sentence.
Dove seemed to take Judge Browns
verdict coolly, and, as court was about
to adjourn, he rose at the suggestion of
his counsel and thanked the judge for
his decision. At the Jail he merely re-
marked: 1T is long time"
Judge Browns decision, as far as we
have heard an expression, meets with
public approval. He had severe duty
to perform and performed it without
fear or favor. He gave Dove the bene-
fit of the discretion vested in him by the
law and still gave him the punishment
his crime merited.
This case should he warming to

it not been for that curse, George R.

the state board of bank commissioners
was held Thursday in Carson. The
commission proposed an assessment of
800 the share on all the stock and pay
the depositors in three, six, nine and
twelve months Owing to the fact that
several of the directors, who are heavy
stockholders in the bank, were not pres

The directors and the state commission
both announced that they felt encour-

ference will DE held within the next
