PLANS FOR THE
THE STATE PRISON
ARE COMPLETED

State Engineer Nicholas has fin
ished his plans for the new state
prison and his report is now being
shaped up to present to the board
this week.
1t will be one of the most exhaus-
tive reports ever made to a board of
prison commissioners and will in
clRde the data gathered back east
last spring when Nicholas and At
torney General Stoddard visited all
the leading prisons, federal and
state, in the country, in search OF
ideas for incorporation into the new
prison for Nevada.
In their judgment the model pris-
on in the United States is the one
at Riker's island, in New York har-
Dor, on East river. This prison cost
a trifie over $5,0O0,OOO and is YET
TO be completed.
The new prison for Nevada will
be modelled more nearly after that
at Riker's island than any other
The Nevada prison will contain adj
ditional features that are needed
here and that would not be put into
use back east on account of the
limits of the site on which it is 10
Gated.
The new prison will be built very
largely of cement. The walls will
be of concrete as. well as the roofs

To PROSECUTE
/. CORPORATION

Governor Dickerson has directed
the district attorney of Humboldt
county to, bring suit against the
Darby Ore Reduction company, do
ing business in Humboldt county,
for recovery of a fine of $500
for failure to comply with the cor
poration law in filing a certified
copy of its articles of incorporation
and name and address of it's resi-
dent agent in the Office of the sec
rotary of state, under the provisions
of Sec. 3 of the act of March 20,
1907.
The matter was called to the at
tention of the governor and secre-
tary of state by Attorneys Bonni--
field and Brandon of Winnemucca,
who brought proceedings to fore
close a lien for materials furnished
the company and it was discovered
We corporation was doing business
in the state without complying with
the law
The governors action in insisting
upon a compliance with the corpor-
alton law will have the effect, nc
doubt, of causing a number of for.

file their papers and pay the fees
required by the laws of Nevada. Il

girders will be used and will be
built to accommodate 800 inmates,
absolutely fire proof and of such
construction that it will be abso-
lutely impossible for prisoners to
escape from it. 1t will be built so
that it can be enlarged as fast as
needed with very little additional
cost to the state.
The buildings will be of such size
and architectural shape that they
will form a harmonious part of the
landscape and will, as far as APP
pearances go, be without the usual
unsightly prison features. The in
terror will be so arranged that
graded prisoners may be handled.
The style will be of the so-called
mission architecture.
The state engineer regards as the
second best prison in the country
that at Railway, n j., the cost of
which was about 100000.
The board of prison commissions
ers will meet this week and go over
the plans and reports Of the state
engineer and probably decide on the
site for the new buildings and start
a work that has been needed badly
for many years and will be done in
such manner that necessity shall
not arise for additional large ex
penditufe for a quarter of a cen.

To secure a personal interview with

necessary to deal with number of
individuals before coming to the
executive. Upon entering the
governors reception room in the
state capitol the visitor first meets
George" the colored messenger.
"George" turns him over to "Billy''
Williams, another colored messenger.
Chilly" finds J. A. Preus, the execu-
tive clerk, who asks the nature of the
VISITORS business. If he believes it
of sufficient Importance he, turns the
visitor over to Ralph w. Wheelock.
the governors private secretary, who
passes his judgment. If he thinks it
worthy he will speak to the governor
of the matter. The executive then
sends word via Wheelock and

THE SJVITCHMEN,S STRIKE.

The switchmens' strike is still I'M
settled. The railroad officials claim
that in few days conditions will be
normal again and freight will be NOV
ing as usual. On the other hand the
switchmen claim that the -tie-up is
effective and very little Roadway is
being made in moving freight. Be
that as it may there has been no
freight delivered at Princeton since
the strike commenced and our bust
ness men and shippers Of produce are
greatly inconvenienced.
It does seem as if the strike could
have been avoided. AS we understand
it, it was not so much question of
wages as working over time that the
switchmen complained of, and surely
that was a question that might have
been arbitrated. The switchmen, in
our opinion, weakened their cause with
the general public when they refused
to submit the issues involved to arbi-
tration.
The strike has demoralized bust
ness, obliged manufacturing plants to
shut down, thrown thousands of men
out of employment and has caused
great loss and Inconvenience to the
public generally.
1t should be possible to enact a
law that would require compulsory
arbitration in disputes that may arise
between public service corporations
and their employees.
