NEVADASH SHEEP
ARE CLEAN

DR.. F. E. Murray, Inspector in
charge of the Office OF the United
States bureau of animal industry. re.
has been inspecting flocks of sheep in
that locality and to arrange for the
inspection of the Nevada fOcks that
will be moved to the forest reserves
OF this State as soon as the ranges
are thrown open, early in June, says
the Salt Lake Telegram
DR.. Murray states that all of the
sheep which he saw were in splendid
condition and that no diseased fiocks
were. seen. He says that the sheep
are not only clean, but in excellent
flesh. Owing to the rigid inspection
and careful wedding out, there is very
little scab among the Nevada focks
In that territory adjacent to the Utah
line. The summer ranges are all
within the boundaries OF the forest
reserve and the sheepmen are en-
thusiastic over the regulations gov
erning the entry of sheep to the re-
serves. NO diseased sheep are allow
ed to enter the reserves under any
condition and thus all fiocks are vir-
tually free from the danger of intec-
ton.
Sheepmen in the EikO district AMI
in Nevada generally. are enthusiastic
because of their excellent prospects
for bumper year. They ale cooper
ating in every possible way with the
worn of the bureau of animal industry
and are giving the bureau inspector
and ofticials all the aelp they can to
keep the conditions of the flocks in
that State up to the highest possible
standard of health.

George II. Mills. minority stock
holder of the Nevada Press company
learned much 10 his panied surprise
this. morning that Il proceeding in
court Monday had wiped out the val
ne Of his interest in tae concern.
Whereat Mills is some what peeved
and announces that he won't stand
for il.
IL seems. from complaint which
bears filing date May |, that Wilson
Brougher advanced some $2S,26S.61
to the company from time to time in
chunks of from 500 TO help pay OF
the pay roll to as high as $4,000,
which latter sum tae complaint alleS-
cs was paid into the State Bank and
Trust Company two days before that
institution closed its doors.
This complaint was filed by Sam
Plat, Esq, and service was had up
on James T. Shaw, who appears of
record as the president OF the Nevada
Press Co. The complaint alleges
among other things that Brougher as
signed his claim. whica is based upon
payments of money that range from
November. 1906, TO June IS, 1898.
On June 20, says the complaint,
Brougncr sold TO James Z. Shaw his
whole claim against the Nevada
Press Co. for Il valuable considera-
ton
Then on Sept. 20 Shaw sold to Sam
Platt for a valuable consideration
half of the claim, and on Feb. l OF
this year he handed aim the other
half. making Plat the owner of the
BrOugher claim.
Sam Plat is attorney for Drougher
aud has been for a long time so that
the transfers were sort of wash
transaction ON the face though the
complaint says they We're each made
for q variable consideration"
All this time George Il. Mills who
supposes he is an officer and director
Of the company, who mas SCI OF
minute books and stock books akd
other papers that entitled him to
suppose he is secretary of the COM
pany by virtue of his investment of
about one third of the original capital
In the concern, and other acts and
parts of acts performed at sundry and
divers directors meetings, was In
blissful ignorance of any OF the high
finance going on under his nose.
He says he knew Brougher was
putting ut some money but that he
knows Of no directors meetings at
which he was voted out of the drec-
torate or at which any motions or
resolutions We're made that would al
low the company to confess judg-
mcnt by default in the district court
Monday.
Mills refused to talk about the mat
ter when asked for a statement of
his intentions. The papers in the
ease are on file at the Office of the
county clerk.
In as much as the confession OF
judgment in the district court by de
fault constitutes an act of bank
ruptcy. IL seems that Mills has been
very much asleep or very much ig-
nored in the whole matter. The mat
ter Is further complicated by u suit

RATES
GOING UP

What looks very much like an in
crease in telpehOne rates in this city
has stirred up lot of talk among. the
subscribers to the system.
The company is putting in lot of
two-party lines, has put cable along
Carson Street and other main lines
and making lot of much needed
improvements.
New contracts have been presented
to subscribers for signature. Some
sign them and some do not. Those
who do are to pa a decided increase
in rates for service. but are getting
much-improved service. according
to the company.
The charter held by the company
that operates in this city allows ii
to charge as high as $24 year for
residence phones and $4S year for
business phones. The old rate has
been 81 30 month, or SIS a year, SO
that the business houses will Iave
substantial increase TO their expense
for phones. OF course the company
justifies this with a better service,
llhNS anu tNo- pa y iiASo.
The company has spent a goOdly
amount in improvements in this city
and declares it cannot give This added
service at the old rate, hence the
raise, a raise that some subscribers
stand and some refuse to accept.
brought by c. A. Rowland an eXem-
pioye for about $3.50 alleged due and
unpaid wages and expense moneys.
This suit Is under advisement in the
justice court and was brought against
the Nevada Press Company, a cOrpor-
alton. This suit may tail now that
Platt is it
Mr.. Platt. when ased about the
matter said:
The suit was filed for the purpose
of securing a Judgment upon justly
assigned claim and more particularly
to clear up the title to the cOmpany's
property. The splendid business pros
poets of the Nevada Press made ii
imperative that its internal affairs
should be placed upon a strong bust
ness basis and it is with this end in
view that the action was commenced.
Instead of jeOpardiZing tae interests
of the company the suit is intended
ultimately TO bring about beneficial
results and every effort will be made
to protect and further the enterprise
in which the company is engaged.
gladly give you this statement as re-
quested for the reason mat it should
be made most clear that the real well
fare of the business itself is the up
-permost consideration. 1t is to be
hoped that the suit. instituted as II
was for the reasons above stated, will
in no wise impair the business inter
ests OF the company. Carson CITY
needs a plant of this character and |
hope the gallant effort made by the
present management to bring busi-
ness out of chaos will lead to most
favorable results"
Manager Shaw said: Regarding
the suit and judgment in question it
was brought with the interests OF the
Nevada Press and the cOnsumation
of it's present success as the ultimate
purpose. For any further discussion
of it now | refer you to Mr.. Samuel

Northwestern markets were fully as

controlling factor in the situation as
foreign markets do not figure on
American wl1eats and even the Cana
