Certainly, ii is treatment unfair tC

1t has not been shown up to this
time that the Sagebrush Club has
come in with its license money for
retailing liquor. 1t may be true that
it is not violating the law, but surely
the social organization is evading it,
Some action should be taken: there
should be no tavOritiSm shown and
the Sagebrush club should be made
to see that the manner it has of dis
posing of liquor over its bar is not in
keeping with the ideas of fair and
just treatment to those who are pay
ing a regular license for transacting
their business.
Let ali be equal before The law.

SUPREME COURT
ORDERS ELECTION

In a decision handed down yester-
day III the supreme court, Yerington
practically wins out in its contention
that the Board of County Commits
sioners of Lyon county be compelled
to call special election concerning
the removal of the county seat from
It's present location, Dayton, to Yer
ingtOn.
The decision is in the nature Of a
preliminary opinion holding that
when a petition signed by three
fifths of the electors of a county is
filed with the county commissioners
for the removal of a county seat
those three fiftns do not have to be
taxpayers, but simply voters. Upon
the presentation of the petition to the
commissioners, the opinion holds, it
becomes their duty to call special
erection at which the issue is to be
determined by the voters of the coun-
ty
This preliminary opinion practical-
ly decides the case in favor of Yer
ingtOn; that is. in favor of Yerington
to the extent that the question of the
removal of the county seat will have
to be decided by the electors of I.v-
on county.

For several months there has been
much bitterness between the resi-
dents of Dayton and those of Yerine
ton. The courthouse at Dayton was
destroyed by fire last winter and the
people of Yerington saw a chance to
get the county seat. They set to
work at once with the result that af-
tor fierce struggle it appears that
their efforts will be crowned with
success
The town of YeringtOn and the i'm
mediate vicinity control the political
destinies of Lyon county and if the
electors in that section stand pat
there is every reason to believe that
Yerington will be the seat of gov
ernment OF Lyon county before
great while.
AT the time tae matter was first
brought before the public, the citi-
zens of Dayton said that if Yerington
were to be the county seat they would
ask to be annexed to Ormsby county.
Now, then, it remains to be seen
whether or not they still insist on
becoming a part of us, and whether
or not Ormsby county would counten-
ince such a move

ELECTION IN DOUBT UNTIL LAST
MINUTE
Voters Choose Ordinance Which viii
Permit Liquor to Be Served
In Homes--Trouble at
Polls
Esneclal to The Herald.l

LONG BEACH, July 2.-The liberal
forces won the liquor election today
although the result was in doubt until
the last few ballots were counted.
One of the hardest political fgins
on record closed today with the elec-
tion to determine whether liquor Or
dinance exactly like the charter pro
vision regarding liquor should be
adopted. The Prohibitlonists, holding
that the proposed new ordinance was
incomplete in that it did not specify
Just what penalties would attach to
the violations of the provisions OF the
ordinance, organized a league known
as the "52 league" after the number
of the old ordinance which they want
ed to retain. The liberal element
wanted to get in a new law, believing
the city's future growth in a business
way depended on a little increase in
liberality.
The voting began at an early hour.
The Liberals accuse the Prohibition
lists of Intentionally blocking the polls
early this morning in an effort to keep
the working class from voting and a
riot almost ensued when one of the
Prohibitionists challenged promiscu-
ously, almost, asking prospective vot
ers who were registered whether they
were married or single and where their
bushes was located.
Both sides used autos and carriages
from dawn until the hour the ballots
were counted 8 o'clock. At that hour
both elements claimed the victory.
The election resulted in the adoption
of the new ordinance by vote of 914
to $50. The result by precincts was
as follows:

Matter

When Ernest w. sundin and George
Allen Beatty, two of the confessed rob-
bers of the First National bank of
Monrovia, appeared for sentence in
Judge Willis court yesterday, a re-
quest for a continuance was granted
until July 20.
Both men have applied for proba-
tionary sentences, Beatty on his own
behalf and Sundin through his at
torney, George Adams. An effort has
been made by Mr.. Adams to induce
the bank officials to lend their influence
in this direction, but according to a
reply received yesterday they will take
no action, either for or against Sun
din.
John H. Bartle, president of the Mon
rovia bank, in his letter to Mr.. Adams,
says that the suspicious cast on the
officers of the bank following the rob
berry has been a source of much
anxiety and he does not feel that he
or those associated with him can take
any part in the matter.

FREED FROM CHARGE
OF ATTEMPT TO KILL
Judge DismIsses Case Against Mexi-

Year-Old Son of
Rancher

Felipe Lastro, a Mexican, was dis
charged from a charge of attempting
to xiii 6-year-old Robert Chapman
after Justice Summerfield heard Las
tro's story yesterday. The shooting
took place at Calabasas June II, and,
according to Lastro. was purely acct
dental.
Bob and me, we always great
friends; we drove the hogs together;
you think l would hurt a little fellow
like that?" he queried in his broken
English when asked to tell the story
of the shooting.
When the complaint was sworn to by
the boys father, John G. Chapman, 1t
was believed the shooting was the re-
suit of friction between Chapman and
Lastro's employer But when Justice
Summerfield heard the statement of
Lastro, how the gun had been dis
charged accidentally when he tripped
over a stone how he picked the boy up
in his arms and carried him home and
then hurried to Chatsworth for a doc
tor, he ordered the case dismissed.

AGAINST USE OF
SODA BENZOATE
MEDICAL ASSOCIATION PLANS
CAMPAIGN
Chief Executive of Country VIII Rec
ommend to Congress Establish
ment of Department Of
Public Health

WASHINGTON, D. c., July 2.-As
the result of the encouragement given
the American Medical Association by
President Taft, that organization Will
prosecute it's campaign against ben
zoate of soda with increased vigor 1t
will be joined by the Association of
State and National Dairy and Food
Commissioners and the Public Health
league, as well as by other state and
national organizations.
1t was expected that the association
of food commissioners would head the
movement for federal inspection of
food factories and the absolute prohi-
bition by law of chemical preservatives.
They will not meet until next August
at Denver, however and the American
Medical association, which is deter
mined that benzoate of soda must go,
decided not to wait and took action
at its annual convention at Atlantic
City the second week in June.
President Taft heard of the resolu-
tions adopted and invited the commit
tee on medical legislation, through his
personal friend and fellow-townsman
DR.. Charles A. L. Reed of Cincinnati,
it's chairman, to pay him a call at
washington.
'I want the pure food law enforced
as the lawmakers intended it should
be-" said the president, adding that he
intended his words to be significant.
The committee interpreted this as
meaning that the president was in
sympathy with the unalterable opposl-
ton to benzoate of soda, borax, formal
dehyde and other chemical preserva-
tives.
Bureau of Public Health
President Taft informed the COM
mittee that he would recommend to
congress next December the creation
of a bureau or department of public
health, to have charge of all such
questions affecting the public at large
AS the enforcement of the pure food
law would come under such bureau
or department, 1t is probable that the
president will await action by congress
rather than ask the present pure food
commission TO reopen the case against
benzoate Of soda, although considerable
pressure is being brought toward this
end.
The resolutions presented to Prest-
dent Taft by the committee Of the
American Medical association were as
follows:
"Resolved, that the American Medi-
cal association respectfully urges on
congress the necessity of amending the
national pure food and drugs act in
the following particulars, viz:
81. To prohibit absolutely and un-
qualifiedly the use of benzoate Of soda
and similar preservatives in the prep
aration and preservation of foods des-
tined for interstate commerce.
"2. To provide for a system of fed
eral inspection of all establishments
engaged in the preparation of foods
destined for interstate commerce, such
inspection having for its specific OBJ
iect (a) the prevention Of employment
in them of persons afflicted with a
contagious, infectious disease; CD the
prohibition of the use of preserva-
tiVes, such as benzoate of soda, etc,
and (c) the prevention of the utiliza-
tion. of unclean and offensive waste
productions which now, by the use of
such preservatives, are branded as
foodstuffs and sent through the chan
nels of commerce"

cept for the apparent hallucinatfon that
young woman whom he calls "ShirP
was in the office at the Vine, appears
to be perfectly rational.
Investigation by the police indicates
that "Shirl' is a young woman with
whom Cunningham was acquainted in
Berkeley, but who was not in the city
on the day of the shooting.
Both Cunningham and Novak strong
ly denounced the Gray Bros. company
for their method of paying off their en-
ployes, declaring they often kept them
waiting weeks for their money, and to
this the former attributed the murder
of the girl.
Cunningham stated in his confession
that, not being able to see Harry Gray,
he concluded to kill Miss Brasch as the
next person responsible for his failure
to get his wages promptly.
Cunningham probably will be charged
with murder tomorrow.
