He has been connected with the of

the lives and property of the people
of the community that trusted him
with that duty.
He was one of the organizers OF

foreman of the company.
For some months his health has
been failing. He went to San Fran

benefit his health and came very, near
dying there. He asked to be brought
home and Joe, his son, went below
and brought him home, weakened but
cheerful.
Yesterday he gave up the struggle.

BIG BILLS
SIGNED
GOVERNOR GETS THROUGH SOME
IMPORTANT LAWS THAT CAUS-
ED A LOT OF TROUBLE TO
PASS

Governor DickersOn has signed the
Tallman banking act, the mining in
spector bill, the anti-gambling bill and
the Juvenile court bill.
The first three named are among
the most important of all the laws
enacted by the last legislature. The
not including the guaranty feature,
are such as that almost the same re-
suit is attained as would nave been
provided by the inclusion of that fea
ture
1t is true the democratic platform
called for the inclusion o. the guar
anty clause. which was tricken out
by the senate. but section 90 was re-
tained. which reads as follows:
Every officer and director of any
banking corporation who shall viO
late any provision of this act shall
be civally liable for damages to any
person injured thereby, and shall like
W lSt ne Ilibl' " 'll'
posit fund of such corporation for the
amount OF money paid cut to the
depositors therein.
Senator Tailman pleaded for the
retention of this clause saying that
the people of the state would appre-
ciate the fact that had strong legis-
l,, Ia. u;
ton, the guaranty clause would have
been retained.
The bill as a whole reviscs the con
duct of banking business in Nevada
and places responsibility for failures
and unsOund banking in the hands OF
accountable persons.
The anti-gambling bill provides
That on and after October 10. 1910.
no license shall be issued for any
gambling game and it makes ii a mis-
demeanor to play any game for mon
ey or anything representing money or
thing of value. This is a compromise
bill and puts the question of gamb-
ling up to the people of the state al
the next election. rather than have
the bill beaten in the legislature.
The mining inspector bin provides
for the regular inspection by a state
officer and his deputies of all mining
operations of any sort in the state
and provides that he snail examine
into accidents in mines and mining
machinery mills.
The juvenile court law, so called.
provides for the proper care of indi-
gent and delinquent children, for pro-
baton officers in each county and for
education and supervision of minor
children. 1t was introduced by Luns
ford of Reno. Il republican member OF
the assembly.
The code commission bill has not
yet been signed. Some difficulty has
been met in making this bill into a
law. but it should be signed as the
law is one of the democratic pledges
and the revision is very much need
ed in this state. If not signed it will
be four years before the work can
be completed and while the supreme
justices are to handle the work. they
have assured the governor that no
deficiency bill shall follow the COM
pletion of the work and that it shall
be completed by the time the next
Legislature meets. An expert ammo

supreme justices have agreed to see

A gentleman hands US the

that he knows better than we do
as to the statement being a truth
full one. From a bit of confu-
sion we have noticed in approach
ing these masculine groups, we
rather suspect the words are not
wide Of the mark; 1T is GER
tainly amusing, when one has a
little leisure, to approach a group
of men on the sidewalk, and lis
ten to the conversation just to
hear how carelessly profanity
mixes in. This man tears off an
oath and that one tips off a dozen
bad words in no time. All of a
sudden the loud laugh ceases and
the most refined language the
group is capable of using
takes its place. Goodness what
a change and what caused it,

preached them, and they have a
little more respect for her than
themselves, Well, well, a lady
