STUBBS
BE DROPPED?

The outgoing and the new mem
gents held an informal meeting last
a:pht in Reno and tire new boa'i IS
r.eeting today.
The tip has gone forth that DR..
Sluobs, who has incumbered the
pre- sident's chair at the university for
some time, is to be ousted and
Stubbs' brothers son-in-law, John
Sunderland. is out with strenuous
denial that such is the case.
1t is known that there is much dis
satisfaction with the course of Pre-
sident Stubbs, say many opponents
of the reverend doctor, and an ef-
fort will be made to re-OrganiZe the
university during the next few
months.
Those present last night were, J.
f. Souchereau, o. ]. Smith and Chas
Levers. retiring members; Charles
Henderson, of Elko and John Sun
derland. holdovers: DR.. John J. Sui
livan, Frank Williams and A. A. COdd,
the new members: Governor Dicker
son, Justice Talbot, chairman of the
board of visitors; President Stubbs
and George H. Taylor. of the Washoe
County bank, secretary of the board.
1t is stated that the board will
elect a new secretary as Taylor. a
banker finds himself unable to at
tend fully to the duties Of the of-
fee The bank probably will make a
fight to hold the funds if any at
tempt is made to take them away.
1t is also stated that the new
board. which contains but one Repub-
lican, intends to make many changes
at the university and to ask for some
legislation in favor of the university
! from the next session. DR.. Stubbs
has interested himself in private
school at Pacific Grove, California, to
which he may retire if he resigns
from the university.

]. Harry Macmillan, the near mil
Nat Goodwin's leading lady, Edna
Goodrich, has been laid by the heels
in Tonopah on a warrant charging
him with passing about $4,000 worth
of worthless checks.
The complaining witnesses are Jas.
May and John Nolon, who conduct
the PALACE and Golden at Reno.
They allege that Macmillan secured
cash for the checks and that when
the checks were presented for pay
ment the bank returned them with a
notation mo funds" thereon.
May was here today and says that
Macmillan, instead Of playing all the
money he secured on his checks at
the games, as he says he did, bought
drafts on New York and paid debts
IN that city with the money.
May says he gave Macmillan a
III. nth in which to make good and
that Macmillan neither made good
nor answered letters sent him. Hence
the criminal complaints, issued yes
te:day in Washoe county.

DIVORCES AND
STATELAW
Editor Appeal:

I
A number of the District Judges of
the State of NGtarda, if not all. have
announced that they will not grant
divorce in any case where the ap-
plicant comes to Nevada for the sole
purpose of obtaining divorce. They
may be sustained in this view by
common morality, but not by Jaw.
Sec. 5O2 Comp. Laws of Nevada,
1900 reads as follows:
Divorce from the bonds of matri
mOny may be obtained, by complaint
under oath, to the District Court or
the county in which the cause shall
have accrued. or in which ;he defend
ant shall have resided or be found,
or in which the plaintiff shall reside,
if the latter be either the county in
which the parties last cohabited, or
in which the plaintiff shall have re-
sided six months. before suit be
brought. for the following causes
Then follows the statutory causes
of action for divorce.
| dwell particularly on the follow
ing words: "Or in which the plain
tiff shall have resided six months
before suit be brought The only
provision therein contained is that
such party shall have resided in
such county at least six months be
fore suit
The purpose of residence Is not
stated. and has nothing 10 do with
it. according to the statute. NO
Judge has any right whatever, under
any pretext whatever, to read into
into said statute any words that are
not contained therein-if the text is
plain and unambiguous. If the text
is ambiguous. then the Judges have
the right to draw upon the unwritten
law or moral code to assist them.
There is nothing ambiguous or
uncertain in the words or in which
the plaintiff shall have resided six
months before suit be brought"
They mean and can only mean that
a plaintiff may bring suit for divorce
in Nevada in any county in which he
or she may have resided six months
before suit brought. and it makes no
difference. so far as the statute is
concerned. what they came to Neva-
da for.
AS little judicial discretion should
/ be left in the breast of the chancellor
as possible and certainly none
should be left whatever where the
words of a statute are plain and un-
ambiguous. Chancellors are men.

men entertain different views of the
morals of things on different days,
depending on how they feel that

county is bound to know that M. & N. A. road is not a profit able institution to it's stock holders, notwithstanding tn very economical manner in which it is being managed, It is the long haul that the road expects to make produce profit, and to the end of securing northern and southern outlets the owners have been struggling for some years and have in all probability failed for want of available funds to care for it's right-of of-way to the technical requirements of the law.
 That the M. & N. A. road is a law abiding corporation is con- clusively evidenced by the fact that it has never even attempted to resist the two- cent passenger rate, while nearly all the other roads are charging 2 1-2 and 3 cents.
