Sheep Ruling
TO Increase
Revenue

An important announcement was
made last evening by District Attor-
ney Reeves when he announced that
he had finished animation of the
law and had in consequence drawn
mp report which will be filed today
and become effective with regard TO
sheep grazing licenses in the county.
Under the finding of the district
attorney. sheep which license has
been paid for in another county of
the state cannot be brought into
White Pine county and grazed under
the same license. The law provides
clearly against such course, making
it necessary for the payment of a
new license whenever sheep are
transferred from one county TO an
other.
This law has been In force for
some years but up to this time White
Pine county district attorneys have
failed to dig 1t mp and call for its
enforcement. The ruling of Mr.
Reeves in the matter will mean the
enrichment of the county treasury by
collection of from $4,000 to $1,000
more from sheep this year than
would otherwise have been secured

Fake indignation Of Evening
Paper to Get Same
Ad But Could Not

and in fit of anger the lmpostor
manager fell upon the eXpedlent,
doubtless at the suggestion of some
body else with a different brand of
headworks but less knowledge of the
truth of the situation, of attacking
the News and the Toggery for the
publication of that which he could
not get to publish.
So far as the Toggery is concerned,
the News has no interest beyond the
fact that the Toggery buys space in
this paper and pays for 1t. The firm
has always met its bills with the
News and has from time to time car
ried a line of advertising which the
News has considered of advantage to
the district, because the Toggery Is
"A price advertising firm and has given
bargains in these columns which
have kept great many dollars at
home. The News did not understand
from the advertisement of the firm
on Sunday, and does not now under
stand from it, that the firms state
ment as to business conditions in Ely
could be taken by reasonable people
To mean more than that the Ioggery
found business exceedingly dull and
was obliged to close out its stock for
what it could get for 1t. That the
business of any other firm in Ely
was declared dull by the Toggery
ad seems TO be far fetched. for the
Toggery, as the public we'll knows,
has no means of knowing whether
it's neighbors are doing well or i'll
and its statements in such respect,
should they be made. would count
for no more than hearsay evidence.
which counts not at all. Concern
ing its own business. the Toggery
should know, and when 1t says that
IL must close out IL undoubtedly
knows what It is talking about and
is saying nothing that it is not priv
ileged to say. That the Toggery has
not done we'll, however, supplies no
manner of proof that the business
management of others In business in
Ely has also failed. The attention
given the matter by the Impostor,
had that sheet readers, through its
spleen because of losing the business
would have been far more injurious
than the alleged offense of the Tog-
gerry.
