Martin was arrested Thursday morn
ing in Leslie Mays house of ques-
tionable repute by Dpuety Sheriff
James G. Small on complaint filed
against him by Sheriff 0. H. Smith.
The testimony Of several witness
es for the state, and which was cor
roborated by the defendant himself
as we'll as by witnesses appearing
in his behalf, showed conciusively
that the accused had made his abode
in the resort referred to since last
November which had the effect of
branding him a moral leper, not de-
serving of the respect Of law abid-
ing citizens of the community.
"Pinkey'' is musician of consid-
erable ability, and during his resi-
dence in Phoebe, which dates back
to about eight months ago, he has
been employed as a piano player in
the Phoebe Club saloon: he also per-
! formed the same duty at the Leslie
May place, wni:e ar various other
times has played at pubic dances
besides giving music les
sons to pupils in respectable fami
! lies of the town.
/ Prior to coming to Pioche, .'Pinis
ey" deserted a pretty little wife
one highly esteemed and command
ing the respect Of ali her acquain
ances--wfo is now in Los Asgeis;--
j where for more than year she has
struggled to support herself and 4
year-old child. In the meantime, tht
dissoiute husband and father has bee
infatuated with Florence Wilson, al
inmate of the Leslie May house.
Attorney Jesse Simmons, in the alb
sence~of District Attorney Breeze, rel
resented the state.
There are several other young mei
in Phoebe, who, like "Pinkey" have
sunk to the lowest depths of mora
depravity. Some are well educate'
and come from good families, bu
they seem to have no higher ambitio
than to commune with women of tn
underworld and feed on their iil-got
ten gains. Sheriff Smith has made
good start and many are of the opir
ion that he should impress upon thes
, young men that public decency dt
mands that they either reform thei
habits, or be obliged to 8
the way "Pinkey'' has.
Attorney Horsey has completed tn
necesessary details in the appeal {
the case and the defendant has bee
released on bonds of $3.50. The al

HISTORICAL SOCIETY
IN NEED OF FUNDS

The last legislature failed to pro-
vide an appropriation for the main
tenance Of the Nevada State Histori-
cal Society and an appeal has been
made to the people of the state.
Miss Jennie E. Weir, who has con-
tributed her time and talents to the
advancement of the organization for
sometime past, without compensation,
has addressed the following to mem
bers and friends of the society:
'In the interest of the society we
beg leave to call your attention to a
few facts concerning our work. The
Legislature of 1909 passed three bills
for the benefit by almost unanimous
vote in each house. There were: L
A relief bill to pay the deficit in
Cured by necessary work during the
fall of 1908. 5-A bill to give the
society custody of the museum col
lectionss at the capitol. "a bill pre-
viding $55 900 for a fireproof building
to be erected on the university cam
pus. Numbers and 3 were Veto
ed by the governor after the adjour-
ment of the legislature. The action
of the legislature plainly indicated
that it was the desire of the members
and the desire of the people they rep.
resented to maintain the society as a
State institution, and to give it all
the support for which it petitioned.
In spite of this intention, the society
now finds itself without either a
building or an appropriation for the
carrying on the work during the next
two years. Through an oversight
the amount of $11 $3.50 which the joint
ways and means committee had vol
unteered to place in the grand appro
priation bill, was omitted, and the
error was not detected until the last
evening, when there was no oppor
tunity to rectify it.
Immediately following the disas
ter, Mr.. f. M Smith of Oakland
generously donated $3.50 to aid us III
tiding over the hard times. After
applying this sum to our outstand
ing bills we still have a debt O
over $400, incurred in the main fol
binding reports, for rents, postage an
travelling expenses OF the secretary
The estimate Of expenses for th,
years 1909 and 1910 is printed O,
page Az of the Biennial Report o
the society. Because of the rapi,
passing of the pioneer, every phras
of work there presented should b.
pushed at once without waiting fo
the action of another legislature Blu
if the society is to continue to ex
ist, even in passive condition, w
must have at least $50 a month t
pay for housing the collections, post
age and other absolutely necessar
expenses.
BY way Of summary we may sa
that we have filed during the pas
two years over $4,000 single news
papers, 141 volumes of bound news
papers, over 5000 books and pam
phlets and about 400 museum article

Germany's Ambition.

Count Won Bernstorff, German am
bassador to the United States, in adj
dressing a gathering Of political
economists a short time ago, gave
brief outline of his Interpretation of
Germanys world policy in which he
stated that Germany's ambition tends
toward commercial conquest and not
toward the acquisition of lands and
power in this hemisphere. The Count
frankly admitted that the only source
of trouble which could possibly cause
a breach between the two nations is
the Monroe Doctrine, but gave assur-
ance that Germany has not the slight
est intention to attempt to gain
territorial foothold on this side of the
Atlantic. He thus recognized the
does as the personal representative of
the German nation that recognition
carries more than the usual weight.
Since the text of his remarks have
been made public in his native land
Count Won Bernstorff has been severe
ly criticized by part of the German
press for stating that Germany has no
intention of reaching out for more land
in this part of the world. His
critics say that he had no right, no
authority, to promise any such thing.
Fortunately his critics represent but
a small faction in German political
life. The concensus of opinion seems
to be that he voiced the sentiment of
those at the helm in German affairs.
America does not propose to listen
to any argument or promise in regard
to the Monroe Doctrine and will MAIN
tain that position at any cost. The
world knows this and at best Count
Won Bernstorffs words are but assur-
ance that Germany accepts our stand
without protest. The fact that he
was criticized at home for so doing is
important only in that il shows that
Germans have differences of opinion
on matters of national policy much
the same as do Americans.

Chicago on the Toboegan!

In 1887 the port of Chicago received
merchandise of all kinds to the amount
of $3.50, 900 tons and in 1907 received
but 100000 tons, marking a loss OF
9. 100000 tons in the period of 20 years.
So far as is known this is the first in
stance where anything in Chicago has
been allowed to do anything but eX-
panding. The fact of the matter is
that Chicago's lake commerce has de-
clined. Milwaukee, Toledo, Cleveland
and Buffalo are getting a portion OF
1887. Perhaps the most noticeable fea-
ture of the decline is in the matter of
grain, for in 1887 grain shipments
from Chicago amounted to 66,SO0,0OO
bushels, while in 1907 they amounted
to 100000 bushels, showing a de-
cline of nearly 26,OOOO0O bushels. The
farmers are interested in these sta
tistics because while Chicago collects
on the transfer of freight whether it
is shipped by rail or by water, 1t IS
certain that in cheap lake shipments
the farmer has the only weapon with
which to stand off the railroads. Any
thing which tends to facilitate lake
commerce means better profit to the
farmer. The discovery that Chicago is
going backward in so vital a matter
has aroused the public spirit of her
business men and it is believed that
within the next few years something
will be done in the way of providing
larger and safer harbor facilities
the trade which has drifted to other
lake ports.

with a hand extended:
How do you do. old man?" he said;

fancy to it.

You've been successful, but no more than

You always had the gift to see the pro-
per time for action:
The victories you've won must be a
source of satisfaction.
1t seemed at if at last the world was
granting justice to me,
And while he spoke I felt a thrill of glad
ness coursing through me-
But presently he spoke again and

Salute the Flag.

The Pittsburg Dispatch in recen
editorial calls attention to the following
incident:
Several days ago teacher IN an
Eastern public school was request
ed by the parents OF a numper Oh
Italian children to teach them how
to salute the American flag. Inc
teacher was much embarrassed
and confessed that this was not
part of our educational system and
that although there was form of
sanitation for such purposes, he did
not know what it was. The matter
was referred to MEMBER OF the
school board, and he didn't know.
Then a system of inquiry was
started and it was discovered that
the nroper method of saluting the
flag in schools is to have the chill
dren repeat this sentence as they
stand facing the flag: Il pledge
allegiance to my flag and to the
republic for which it Sandstone
nation, indivisible, with liberty
and Justice to all"
This pledge to the flag which is the
symbol of our nation should be taught
to every child in our public schools
REGARDLESS of the nationality of his
parents. Boys and girls born of par
ents in this country need to be taught
this allegiance to the flag as much as
do the children born of parents who
have come to this country from other
lands.
There are comparatively few school
houses in this country from which the
American naS does not float NOR" or
less regularly, but in few sch"olhouses
6 the significance of the flag thorough
y understood. OTHER nations are more
Jealous of the sacredncSs of their BAN
ncrs than are Americans; drplorable
IS this may be. In many cases the
formal respect shown a foreign flag
" these owing it allegiance seems
,mpty show, yet it is undeniabie that
he custom of saluting flag pre-
erves a respect for it that is a valu-
bile asset to any nation.
In America the flag has been used
S an advertising medium and has been
penly insulted by socialists and an
.rchists who are permitted to enjoy
license in the eyes of liberty. If the
chool children in the thousands OF
throughout this land
ledge their allegiance to the stars
nd Stripes every day of the school
ear it might be that in time some of
he abuses of the liberty and lnstltu-
ions represented by the flag will pass
way.
