An idea of the importance of these
items will be formed if it is known that
the steel gates above for the - locks

be policed, cleaned and guarded on
Lake Gatun only is 1927 miles long for
the lock canal aud only so miles in the
sea level canal.
The placing. cleaning and maintains
ing in sanitary condition of said 927
miles of lake snores will exceed con-
siderably the toG.,l of ail the expenses of
the sea-level canal.
The sea-leVei waterway will have
absolutely no metal work of any kind
whatsoever. 1t will be plain open
ditci: % tide water, with no powerful
machinery nor expensive appliances of
any kind to be repaired and maintained;
it will call for no annual sinking fund
allowance to make up for their newt
able rapid deterioration under the
tropical climate. 1t will require nc
special crews Ut well-trained, careful
men to handle vessels Tin and out" of
locks, nor the corresponding expenses
for their intelligent management. 1t
will have no 'p,lygonap' lake naviga-
ton, with its corresponding array of
lighthouses, range-lights, buoys, tugs,
ferries, etc, to ID maintained, renewed
and managed, ever year forever.
In the sea-lerel canal. fed at each
end by the oceaa, the water supply is
unlimited, and forever free. 1t will
not need the enormous, expensive
pumping plants required to fill the lock
canal lake during tue dry seasons.
Beyond lighting and telephoning the
sea-level canal will have no other
expenses than what is normal to an
open ditch frcs from all kinds of

A L'gal Battle

The fierce legal battle over the
boundary lines OF Story and Lyon coun-
ty had another inning in the courts
yesterday. Jedge Brown, sitting for
Judge Langan, WHO is disqualified owing
to the fact that h, was an attorney in
the case, heard the arguments of the
matter of a new trial and denied the
motion.
Judge Brown give prior decision in
the case in 1905 deciding in favor of
Lyon county and the decision to day
was the outcome of that decision. The
gist Of the Case is mat Story county be-
lieves that it is entitled to the taxes on
five miles of tie Southern Pacific and
in 1905 collected tn taxes on the same.
Lyon county also believes that it has a
right to the taxes and at once started
suit to regain the money paid to Storey
and since that year has collected the
taxes.
Attorney Noel all Deal for Story coun-
ty were given iGay of execution for
thirty days and will at once prepare an
appeal to the Supy',ne Court. Attorney
Chas. Miller and Judge Mack appeared

A CHALLENGE TO
TIE REPUBLICANS

For some time past the Reno Gazette
has been intimating that the democrats
were seeking to repudiate the Direct
Primary Law by studied criticisms of
it's defects, etc, and that eventually the
party would be glad TO get rid of it.
Now, it is Il fact that democratic
papers have criticised the bill and
deservedly SO. 1t is all exact copy of
the California law, which has been
declared constitutional by the Supreme
Court of California.
The people who backed the bill i'll the
Nevada Legislature should have paused
long enough to consider that primary
law which would fit California might
have to he modified to suit conditions
existing in Nevada. The fact was not
important and the bill went through
with a lot of complications and useless
junk which should have been elm
mated.
1t will probably be amended at the
next session but it is the law of the
land now and it's basic principle is so
sound-the right of the people to select
their own candidates-that no court in
the state will dare overthrow it, and we
will further state that no political body
in this state dare go into court as
plaintiffs in an action to abrogate it's
provisions.
Weeks ago the leaders of the republi-
can party met at the command of the
henchInen of Seaator Nixon and ar
ranged to bring suit in the Supreme
Court to test the constitutionality of
the Act.
When they were asked to tell why
the Act should be knocked out they
made no bones of saying that they did
not think that Nixon. with his un-
popular official record Gould win before
the people in direct primary The
plan was accordingly laid to test the
constitutionality of the Act and lawyers
hired and complaint drawn and every
thing ready to sweep it off the statute
cooks when the schemers heard the
gatherings of the rising storm from all
directions and found that they were
being us soundly condemned by their
ewn party as by the democrats, who
placed the Act on the statute books.
They arenow debating what to do and
thriving at no conclusion. The Appeal
low issues the conspirators direct
hallenge and dares them to bring such
roceedings Carson Appeal. y
