No trains from the west today. Pas

The sun shines bright and warm to-
day and the indications are the storm
is over. The day is in strong contrast
with the early part of last night when
SNOW was falling thick and fast.
According to reports, the Legislature
is creating useless positions for the

this extravaganza continues, the demo-

If Elmer Fulton should he sent to the

He got busy with Il check book in Car

Grand Jury Report

Hon. George s. Brown, Judge of the
Fourth Judicial District of the State of
Nevada, in and for the County of
Elko.
We, your jury, ~impanelled this 18th
day of January. A. d. 1909, respectfully
submit the following report:
We have had presented for our con-
sidcration three (3) cases of grand
larceny, one of cmbezzlemcnt, one of
grand larceny and cnbezzlement, one
of assault with n deadly weapon with
intent to infict bodily injury, ten QO)
of passing checks with intent to de.
fraud, having insufficient money with
drawce to meet them.
We have found true bills in the three
grand larceny cases, ignored the en-
beZzlement case, and the case of grand
larceny and embczzlement. Found n
true bill in the case of assault with n
deadly weapon with intent to infict
bodily injury. and true bills in the ten
cases of passing checks with intent to
defraud, having insufficient money with
drawcc to meet them.
This grand jury, being more in the
nature of n special grand jury, and one
drawn to dispose of the criminal cases
now pending, we did not consider it
necessary to make the usual examina-
ton of the books of the county officers
and the condition Of our public build
ings. The general grand jury in last
October investigated as usual, and we
are informed that there is to be another
grand jury early in the spring, which
will probably make the usual investi.
