SHOOTING at long range target
with popgun may be pleasing
pastime and attract considerable at
tention, but it is as useless as it may
be pleasing and noisy. That is just
what our Anti-Saloon League friends
are doing when they devote their
every energy to securing county OPP
tion law, and at the same time allow
the loop holes in the present law to
exist without an effort to have them
corrected. In such counties as they
could hope to be successful with a
county option law, saloons are al
ready scarce article. But in such
counties whiskey is sold under the
present law to quite an extent under
the guise of medical purposes. We
have no fault to find with those en-
gagged in the business channels
through which the stuff is now sold;
it is simply the enactment of COM
mon sense amendment to the law
that we want to see. We cannot
credit the Anti Saloon League with
sincerity of purpose if it pushes the
one and ignores or remains passive
toward the other.

Tur insurance Of bank deposits

THE insurance of bank deposits is a
matter that is certain to be up for
consideration by the legislature of
this state. 1t is probable, however,
that the proposed law will provide
for the insurance of deposits of such
banks as shall desire it, but not to be
compulsory.

The bill introduced by Senator
Dolliver providing for the regulation
of the issue of stocks and securities
by transportation companies is one
right in line with needed reforms.
The restrictions upon such issues
should be such that any man of small
means might safely invest his savings
in any one of the many stocks on the
market. Such law would also do
much to solve the transportation
question as it would prevent the
possibility of fixing rates TO pay
dividends on watered stocks.

SOME of the German papers declare
that the Kaiser is passing through a
series of 'soul storms" of the most
violent character and that he is un-
able to regain his composure, being
the polite way of saying that he is
mixed up stairs. And there you have
it. If you belong to royalty and
happen to go off, you are undergo

member of the aristocracy without a

Tonight we are to have the Geor-

at the Pavilion Theafer, and from
the advance sale the indications are
that the popular company will be ac-
corded a splendid reception. Miss
Harper and her company are to be
here for the week and there will be
change of program every night.
For the first performance "Niobe'
has been selected, and this is start
in the right direction, for it is a
merry comedy with complicated sit
uations and a laugh every minute.
1t is a clever skit, connecting as it
does ancient mythology with modern
times. 'Niobe' is the work of a
sculptor, who has made a most life
like statue of the goddess, and when
she is galvanized into life, she eX-
hibits all the traits, the love and
affection, and the tears of the Ia
mented goddess, and she raises merry
ladies in the home of her owner. II
is a go from curtain to curtain and
there is ample opportunity for good
wholesome comedy.
'Zira" will be the attraction fol
tomorrow night, and through the
week we are to have 'All the Com
forts of Home ''Zaza,'' 'Eas

tions.

BUSY IN REESE
RIVER COUNTRY
ANY NUMBER OF PROPERTIES
BEING WORKED IN THE
VALLEY.

Mrs G. J. Sutherland, president,
and C. Arson Parker, secretary
treasurer of the Arson Nevada Gold
Mining Company, arrived in the city
yesterday from the Reese River Val
ley country. Mrs. Sutherland will
go to Goldfield today, and from there
proceed to her home in New York,
while Mr.. Barker will return to Bon
tia, where the property of the COM
pany is located.
The district where We are stu
ated," said Mr.. Barker, last night,
lis very busy one just now, there
being no less than seven properties
working, and we are all going after
the ore as fast as labor will take
us. The Arson Nevada has very
good showing and we feel very much
encouraged over the property. The
values are in gold, and we are get
ting very good returns as far as we
have gone.
There are any number of prop
critics being worked in the valley and
old Austin, which is the distributing
point, is poking up her head again
! from the memories of the old days
| Of the State, when she was the queen
city. There are good mines still in
her vicinity, and the people there are
awakening to the opportunities OF
the country around and the immedi.
ate neighborhood of the town. And
one who has not been there for some
time, would be much surprised al
d the improvements which are goins
on in Austin itself. County Treas
urer Hogan of Lander county, is put
ting up fine stone and brick build
ing, which is nearly finished, ant
there are other structures in prog
ress, showing the confidence that thu
people have in their own town. Their
are some very good mines in tina
country, and there is better feelin:
in Austin at the present than Their
has been in many years.
There is quite a romantic story il
connection with the Arson Nevad
Gold Mining Company. 1t is CONTROL
ed entirely by people of the news
paper world. Mrs. Sutherland tn
president, is the wife of S. F. Suth
erland, editor of the New York Even
ing Sun, and is niece of NJ. H. d
Young of the San Francisco Chron
icle Mr. Barker was also connecte
with the Sun, and came out to thi
country to boom and stayed to buy
!. There are other people of the gull
interested in the mine. This is quit
t reversal of form with regard t
! newspaper people. They are usual
q the first to make country, and tn
last to get anything out of it.
Mr. Sutherland of the Evening Su
, is one of the most brilliant newsps
i per men in the country. He is wide
ly known on the coast, having live
many years in San Francisco, wher
n he met and wed his wife. He ha
\ a virile pen which he sets to mus
or war with equal facility, and it
: a hardy man who would dare to eros
Q swords with him on the journalist
Q field. Mrs. Sutherland is very we
known in San Francisco, where sh
: spent the earlier years of her life.
