An interesting case was argued IN
the supreme court this week, as to
whether the sale of "malt" is per-
missible under the new law defining
intoxicating liquor. Malt" Is a IL
quor with low percentage Of alco-
hol, and yet retaining some OF the
appearance, taste and frothiness OF
beer. Its sale has been defended on
the ground that not enogh of it can
be taken into the human stomach to
produce ntoxication-that nausea
would result before any state of in
toxication would be reached. The
general prohibition law of the state
was enacted for the prevention of the
sale of intoxicants. 1t would seem,
therefore, that a beverage that was
not intoxicating could be sold, pro-
vided it did not conflict with the
statutes regulating the sale of food
and beverage products from the
standpoint of the public health. Malt
according to the confessions and pro-
LESSONS of those who nave been un-
fortunate enough to partake of 1t,
is a sad, insipid and valueless bever-
age, whose only virtue is that it is a
weak little brother of beer. Doubt
less those who have had it passed
upon them are willing that the sever
est penalty of the law shall be Wis
tied upon those who sell II.

AN IMPRACTICAL PLAN.

The Grand Forks Herald does not
approve the present plan for the reg
istration of names for the land draw
ings on the Standing Rock and Chey-
enne river reservations. It thinks
the requirement that prospective set
tiers visit one of the places for regis
tration to be enabled to participate in
the drawing is unfair to great num-
Der of persons who may not have the
necessary funds with which to make
the trip and suggests instead that
every person in the country who is
qualified to enter government land
should have the right to register at
his county seat, and his name be
sent to be numbered among those
from which the successful names are
drawn.
The objection to the Herald's plan
is that the government desires to get
settlers on this land. The probable
ity IS that the man with not enough
interest to visit one of the places of
registration or not enough money to
max tn trip would enter
the drawing purely from a spec
ulative standpoint. The list of
names would be drawn from
among so great NUMBER all through
the United States that thousands of
those whose names we're drawn
would fail to file. There is such
thing as taking on too much terri
tory" While the Herald's plan
would serve theoretically to give
every resident of the country an equal
chance, such a quantity of names
would be registered from such an
indiscriminate lot of people who
would register at lheir county seats,
that the first object of the.,drawing,
to get the land settled, would be
defeated.
The man with not money enough
to make trip to one of the registra-
tion points would be poorly equipped
to pay the appraised value Of the land
he might draw. 1t would be nice, of
course. if everybody could be provid
ed with an equal chance, but the
Herald's scheme seems hardly practi-
cal. The government could hardly
station an official representative at
each county seat in the United States
to lake Acknowledgements. And If ac-
acknowledgements were Unfortunately
taken, endless confusion would re-
suit. The system being followed
seems about the only practical one.

The following special dispatch from
Pierre, indicates what is being done
by the authorities there toward the
improvements of the capitol grounds
The state capitol commission at q
session last evening formally decid-'
ed to adopt the 'lake'' plan of Inn
provement Of the grounds, which was
outlined to the legislative members at.
the last session In a large picture
which was on exhibition. While this
plan has been adopted, the amount of
money available for improvement this
year is not sufficient to begin the car.
rying out of the whole plan, but that
which is available will be used to be-
gin the work on the western end of
the grounds, leaving the completion
of the work covering the whole tract
for more available funds. The work
to be carried out to be made harmon
ious with the whole plan. This Will
leave the eastern end Of the grounds
to be cared for later. s~r
In this connection, some such ac-
ton should be taken in North Dako-
ia. Although the state capitol has
been located for more than a quarter
Of century. there has been no sys-,
tematic movement toward the perma-
nent improvement of the grounds.
Trees have been planted, and there;
is good growth of grass, but steps
should be taken toward laying out
the grounds with a view to perma-
nency, beauty and the consideration
Of landscape gardening. In this
country, the growing season is short.
A good many years are required to
obtain nice>hedge growths, growths
Of foliage plants, strawberries and
trees. If there is to be beauty spot
about the capitol, as there should be,
the work should be begun at the
earliest possible time. The capitol

reason why the present generation
should not have an opportunity to see
the. grounds beautified, see an exam
pie Of modern landscape gardening,
and see d beauty spot erected for the
people, not only Of this city but Of
the entire state, when they visit the

COOGAN
GETS ANOTHER RAP WITH VERY
LITTLE IF ANY JUSTIFICATION
He's Not a Bad Fellow

Harry COOgan, Chief Clerk OF the
Assembly, felt rather put out yester-
day over a published clipping taken
from the Elko Independent rejecting
upon his integrity. Harry has a
number of friends in the Legislature.
Though he has been criticised a few
,.mes during the session his
integrity or honesty has never been
questioned With all his faults he is
not bad sort of chap.-CarsOn News
The independents criticism of Mr..
COogan was based upon reports
found in Carson papers and what
a prominent member of the Assembly
told us in regard to Mr.. Coogan's
conduct with the antigambling bill.
He was reprimanded by Speaker
Giffen for that and shortly after
ward was reprimanded again by the
Speaker for ns conduct with another
bin.
Our criticism was based entirely on
these reports. If they were true. Mr..
COogan honesty and integrity were
certainly questioned. He may not be
"a bad sort Of chap" as the News
says, but he is not the right sort OF
man for the responsible position he
fills. A man in that position should
be above criticism in The performance
of his duties.
The above is from the ElkO lnde-
p ndent.
1t is impossible for a Chief Clerk
to get through a session without
some differences with the members
ana the Speaker.
We have yet to hear that COOgan
has been dishonest in his manage
ment of the bills n the Assembly in
the least degree.

OUR GAME BIRDS

Smaills bill. No. 1871, to provide for
the protection Of the game birds and
fish of Nevada is a tardy attempt to
stop the ruthless destruction OF our
D.rdS, fish and game.

fore the onslaughts OF the market
hunters and unless something is
done to check the destruction. there
will be few left for the SpOrtsmen

One of the provisions of the bill
regulates the killing of doves in the
nesting period and closes the season
until the 18th of July.
The bill should become a law, il
for this clause alone, wnich is one
OF great Importance. The bill also
protects ducks, sagehen, deer and
trout and other fish and birds and is
very comprehensive in its scope.

Of the act the same as white men. 1t

EXCELLENT
PIECE OF WORK is FINISHED UP
BY MEMBERS OF THE FISH
COMMISSION

Fish Commissioners, Mills, Yering-
ton and COryell nave closed up the
purchase of the property now occupi-
ed by he hatchery at Verdi paying
therefor $25OO. The property has
been used by the Commissioners for
two years and they were far-sighted
enough to tie it up on a bond and
lease when property was low.
The site contains 25 acres of land
on the Truckee River with over 1000
feet frontage on the river at a point
where the fall is over ten feet, fur
nishlng plenty of water power for all
time to come
Most of the land is irrigated by a
ditch which goes with the property
A huge spring half way up the side
the highest elevation on the place
feeds the hatchery.
The Commission will improve the
buildings and will put in a hatchery
that will handle 100000 spawn
Grading ponds will be dug below the
hatchery so ,hat the fry can be hand
led in running water under the sun
The hatchery now has 100000 East
ern brook trout almost ready to lib
crate. The ponds will be used to
allow the Try to grow large enough
to protect themselves in the heavy
waters of the main river
At the Carson hatchery the Com
mission has 100000 Eastern brook
trout and 100000 salmon The latter
will be planted in Lake Tahoe and
will be observed closely. as there is
in fresh water and will grow to large
size but will not propagate.
