Assemblyman Dodge rose to a
question of personal privilege al

intention of Lem Allen to qualify at

BILL DID NOT
COME OUT

The anti.gambling bill was again
headed off this morning and it did
not come up. though all kinds of sup.
port was arrayed for and against it
in the assembly.
II is believed that this bill has n
chance Of passage in the assembly
due to a bit of trading made last
week by which Kane and the filibus-
ter got busy and gathered in some
votes. 1t is stated that in exchange
for votes on the Bullfrog county bill
and the McCaiferty bill. which went
to final passage this afternoon, as
well as upon the Yukon Exposition
bill. the anti-gambling crowd have
gathered in enough votes to put the
bill through the house
II the senate sticks to It's program
so far carried through the session. it
will kill the bill or allow it to die in
committee when it reaches the south
side of the building. The filibuster
was in evidence strong all day today
and ii it hangs together long enough
will be able 10 do some real business
before the session ends.
Many of the members have discov-
cred the fact that the state does not
reap the slightest benefit from the IL
censes from gambling except for slot
machines and this amount is incon-
siderable when compared with the
total. Eacn member will have to fig
ure what revenue can be had to sup
plement the loss the gambling licen-
ses in his city and county, and vote
accordingly.

The WRONG NtRI-

Last Saturday evening a gentleman
in this city accOst1d a lady on the
street and remarked: is your sis
ter home this evening?' Receiving
an affirmative reply he cOntinued:
"Please tell her that snail call about
eight this evening" and walked on.
At the appointed hour he called
and asking her if the sister brought
the message all right learned that
the sister had not been out that ev
ening and that it was someone else
he had been talking to.
Now this gentleman is trying to
figure out WHO that girl was he sent
the message by and if her sister still
expects him to come round.

BILL RAISES SALARIES

The senate has passed the bill rails
Governor is raised to So 600 a year
the attorney general to $4,000 a year,
the lieutenant governor and all other
state elective officers to $4,000 a year.
The legislature probably will pass
a budget for the upkeep Of the Gov
ernOrs mansion as the Governor is
unable to keep that house open on
his salary without going into his
private purse to do so, something Ne
vada should not stand for as the man
sion is a public institution

LEGISLATURE
HAS BUSY DAY

There was little action of any kind
in the senate tnis morning and a
! food of bills in the assembly.
Assemblyman Brooks introduced
two resolutions, one to amend the
state law in regard to the initiative
and referendum and the other to am
end in regard to the recall from Of.
flee.
one by Folsom to create cOrOners'
districts and to make public admin
istrators eX-Officio cOroners: one to
fix the date of election of school trus-
tees; and one to enable school dis
tricts to issue bonds for any purpose.
Brandon of Humboldt, would cut
down the fees of justices Of the peace
and constable in Humboldt county
SMALL put in one to appropriate $500
for the care Of the G.. A. r cemetery
here and one to regulate the salaries
OF Ormsby county officials to which
there is no objection in any quarter
He also introduced a bill to divide
the first judicial district and to pro
vide for the election of an additional
Judge to act with Judge I.angan.
Lunsford of WashOe. introduced
the juvinile court bill which WILL in
all probability become a law, and
Riddell put in one to assist the state
in reaping the benefit of the Carey
land act.
The creation of a new judicial dis
trict is important and is badly need
ed. The First District now compos-
ed of four counties is the largest in
the state and one Judge cannot give
/, the proper attention as he has four
counties to care for.

THE LAW OF SUPPLY
LII
 AND DEMAND

Banker Henry C1ewS interpretS the declaration of the 'fopen market by the Steel Trust as a surrender to the linexorable law of supply and demand, and adds:
 This powerful and skillfully manag- ed corporation was organized largely for. the express purpose of escaping this law. Competition was to be abol- ished or reduced to a minimum as regulating force, and in its place ar tiffcfal regulation. was to be SubSti- tuted. The market was to be under the control of a few able men to whose Judgment and absolute power the whole industry must submit; and the free play of differences Of opinion between buyer and seller, which has Hbeen the system of price control ever since civilization began, was to be
 .aboliahed at stroke. Competition between buyers and competition be- tween sellers was to be wiped out, and th wants of trade were to be estimated and satisfied according to the opinion or caprice of a few men. Such in brief were the ultimate aims of the policy of some of the great monopo- hstic combinations which have beeen created within the last few years. No thing more revolutionary and nothing more approaching to socialism has ever been put into practical effect than these huge combinations which. placed whole industries under the arbitrary control of a few strong but not in- fa1lible individuals. The failure of ar fificial regulation in case of the Steel Importance. It shows thatathe trust system has failed in one of it's prime and most objectionable purposes, that of regulating prices; and this failure is who wish to see the freedom of Amer fcan institutions preserved There is no objection whatever to great cor porations; they are in line with in
 z--- they must be resolutely checked in their monopolfstic tendencies.
 If the setback given to stf1e Steel Trust by s'the memorable law of sup ply and demand could besmade perm anent, the results. would be very bene- ficial to nearly all industries, but there are indications already that the trust and the independents will soon reach a ..gentlemen's agreement which will abolish competition, for the regulation of prices. The trusts absorption of the Tennessee Coal and Iron Co.,, which was accomplished under special per- mission from President Roosevelt and which placed a very dark and large blot upon his antitrust record, enables the trust to make it's own terms so soon as the independents realize the fu- tility of continuing Ia iprice-cutting war. Thus, there now appears to be more than a probability that the law I of supply and demand in the regula- f1ion of prices will again be suspended. The action of the House, in refusing to; provide for prosecution of the Steel Trust for having violated the anti trust law by absorbing it's greatest icompetitor, the Tennessee Coal and E1ron Co. changes the probability of a ifresh control of prices by the trust to almost certainty.

NEEDFUL KNOWLEDGE
Bridgeport People Should Learn to Detect the Approach of Kidney
 Disease.

The symptoms of kidney trouble are so unmistakable that they leave no ground for doubt. Sick kidneys ex- crete a thick, cloudy, offensive urine, full of sediment, irregular of passage or attended by a sensation of scalding The back aches constantly, headaches and dizzy spells may occur and the victim is often weighed down by a feeling of languor and fatigue. Neg lect these warnings and there is dan ger of dropsy, Bright's Disease, or di- abetes. Any one of these symptoms is warning enough to begin treating the kidneys at once. Delay often proves fatal.
 You can use no better remedy than Doan's Kidney Pills. Here's Bridge port proof:
 Mrs. Thomas Burns, 1928 Iranistan Ave. Bridgeport, Conn.,, says: My husband suffered from a dull aching in the small of his back for a long time. His kidneys were in a weaken ed condition and the secretions from these organs were very irregular in action. On a friends advice he be- gan using Doans Kidney Pills and this remedy cured him. During the ten years which have intervened, MT. Burns has had no return of kidney trouble and has remained loyal friend of Doan's Kidney Pills. He uses the remedy occasionally when his kid neys have become disordered and the best of results are always received" !"

Congressman Hill who is a member of the, Ways and Means committee, says that the tariff-revision bill will be reported at the commencement of the special session of Congress on March 15. President-elect Taft pre- diets that the bill will be ready to go into effect on June 1. We hesitate to accept this prediction. The House will quite probably complete it's work with reasonable speed; the block. if any, will come in the Senate, and particu- larly in it's Finance committee which has been continued in it's present form of stand patters" until December. These men will probably make nu1ner- ous changes in the House bill, which will necessitate a review of them by the House, and then, in the probable event of "a disagreement. a reference Of differences to a conference commit tee. Mr.. Taft predicts that all this ground can be covered in 3 1-2 months. Desirable as this may be- we very much doubt its accomplishment.

The population of Cuba, according to a census taken two years ago during the American occupation, is 2,04S, ,9s0- 1;074, ,SS2 males and 974, ,09S females. Of the males, there are 1,42S,176 white men. 274.272 negroes, 334, ,695 mixed" and 11,s37 Chinese. This disposes of the assertion, made quite often that negroes predominate in the population. Of the white men, 1,224, ,53S are natives, and but 1s5,Ss3 of Spanish birth. Of those qualified by age to vote, 430,514 in number, 2I7,5S4 cannot read; even among the whites of voting age, 130,- 944 cannot read. These statistics of illiteracy among the voters do not promise well for the permanence of popular government.

That much-debated question of the proper disposition of the surplus of sS.162 in the hands of the receiver of the defunct Watertown Savings bank, is now settled. It goes to the 175 de- positors of the bank in the form of a dividend of 55 per cent. on interest due them when the banks doors were clos ed in 1905 They had previously re- ceiyed their deposits in full, and their loss is therefore limited to 45 per cent. of the interest due. It is probably the most equitable possible adjustment of the vexed question.

These circumstances appear to j3stify our conviction that not later than the last half of the year we shall enjoy a market of booming prices and wide activity.
