NEW HOMES
ARE NEEDED
Lack of House Room Turns
People From Carson

On another page of the Appeal ar
tractor. This advertisement is of in
terest to Carson City in many par
ticulars. That his work is all that i:
claimed is shown by the one modern
home he has erected in this city foI
Mr.. A. Cohn.
Carson City, while one OF the most
delightful home towns in Nevada is
sadly lacking in modern homes or
conveniences. This undeniabie fact
has lost this city many a dollar and
has had the effect OF turning away
people who would not only leave
money here but who would in many
instances remain here, as there is
plenty of field for investment and
opportunity
In speaking with one lawyer con-
corning the divorce colony and why
Reno gained the major portion of the
clients he said:
The trouble with Carson City is
lack of houses to take care of people
who wish TO gain residences long
enough to secure a divorce. In my
case | have had at least score of
clients who have gone far enough |
visit this city. Plans for their case |
have been talked over but when the
problem of housing my client arises
| look around and to my disgust |
there is not a modern house to be
found for them. The houses that
such people desire demand up-to,
date heating and cOlVemCnces. The
old houses that are offered for rent
are not to their liking. Then they
take a trip to Reno where the town
is new, apartments can be rented
or excellent hotel service found. My
experience has been that the divorce
seeker moves to the Riverside town
and Carson City looses the gain in
population and l loose the case.
This is only one complaint that
goes up. During the past few years
1r since the discovery of valuable
mines south of here, a half hundred
people have endeavored TO locate IN
his city, where excellent schools ar !
and the summer months
ire equal to any on the coast.
On the other hand plenty of ex
.eli ent building lots can be found
II the present incorporated town
without additions Many blocks OF
and are ILlc and the building Of a
lcw home is the signal for rejoicing.
n the past two years some new
have gone up OF modern
nature but they nave been built for
'esidents OF this city.
What is wanted is rentable prop
,rty of modern construction, it mat
ers not what contractor constructs
t. but the evidence is to the effect
hat if Carson City would continue
IN the map some of her people with
money had better get into the rent
business in the right way.

Iiobt on Cause of tuberculosis.

The sixth annual meeting of the Ma
tional Association for the Study and
Prevention of tuberculosis was held
in Washington on May 2 and 3. Among
the most interesting papers was one
by DR.. William H. Park, the famous
pathologist and head of the labora-
tories of the New York city depart
ment of health. Doctor Park contended
that pulmonary tuberculosis is very
rarely, if ever, caused by infection
from bovine sources, such as the
drinking of milk or the eating of meat.
tuberculosis of the stomach and inter
nal organs, which compose only about
ten per cent. of the sickness from
this disease, are often caused by drink
ing or eating infected matter. Doctor
Park substantiated his conclusions by
showing the results of years of inves-
tigation and examination of pathology
cal specimens. His conclusions are
substantially those reached by DR..
Robert Koch, the di%scoverer of the tu-
berculosis bacillus.

The department of agriculture rec
tables to produce certain ~characteris-
tics. Thus beans produce brains, peas
stimulate the tender passion and pota-
toes develop the reasoning powers.
Boston has already discovered the first
fact, which may account for it's intel
lectual supremacy over its sister
cities. That peas ~alliteratively CORE
late with passion may explain why it
is instinctively taken as bad form to
eat them with a knife or other point
ed instrument, which cuts affection,
while the relation of potatoes to rea-
son may lie in the fact that potatoes.
like wise men, have their eyes peeled.

Maine is a great agricultural and

improvement is abroad in the Pine

spreading rapidly from ocean to ocean
and 1t will not be long before every
state of the Union has taken to mend

In the case of a sick woman and her
children who came to this country in
the steerage while the husband and
father was a cabin passenger the
mother and children were ordered de-

liable to become public charges. The
authorities were justified in believing
that such a head of a family would
put the burden of their support on any
one who would bear 1t.

Cities in Rivalry.

Stst&S ~
An indication of the intense rivalry
existent between certain cities in Mis-
sissippi as to supremacy in point OF
population is furnished by the very
positive interest that is being taken N
the enumeration of the inhabitants By
the census takers of the United States.
The people of these communities led by
the Official and civic leaders and men
Of affairs generally, have taken special
interest in the matter Of seeing that
every one is counted, man, woman and
child.
Thus it comes about that in Vicks-
burg, Jackson, Meridian, Columbus,
Hattiesburg and several other towns
everybody is ON the alert and organ
lied movements have been started in
order to see that everybody is counted.
Between Jackson, Vicksburg and
Meridian there exists intense and keen
rivalry as to the supremacy in point
of population, as well as financial and
economic resources, and in each OF
these cities the business and CONNER
cial clubs and. municipal officers are
cooperating together in a whirlwind
campaign.

The indications in regard to the de-
cision Of the anti-trust statute OF Mis-
sissippi, as involved in the action OF
the state against the Grenada Lumber
Company ct ais, by the United States
Supreme Court, are that the supreme
tribunal Of the land has followed the
presentation of the cas- by the state
as the defendant in error there. The
contention Of the state vas that he
constitution of the Retail Lumber
Dealers Association of Mississippi and
Louisiana, was violative of the laws OF
Mississippi against trusts and COM
bines. The avowed purpose of the or
CARNATIONS, as set forth in the BRIEF
of former Attorney General Stirling,
was to refrain from doing business
with, and withdraw their business
from, all manufacturers and wholesal-
ers in lumber who would, or might,
sell to consumers, in territory where
there are retailers, members Of such
association; that each and every mem
Der of said association bound himself
or itself, to withhold his, or its, busl-
ness from such manufacturers, whole
salers, lumber commission merchants,
agents, or brokers, who sold to con-
sumers. but did not carry stocks, and
from a manufacturer who might sell to
such commission merchants, agents
or brokers.
This decision is on the general con-
tention of the constitutionality of the
code chapter on trusts and combines,
which is chapter 145, and does not
touch the question of penalty, suits
fer which were entered, allowed by the
chancery court of Holmes county, and
appealed to the state supreme court,
where they are now pending. Under
section 1904 of that chapter the pen
atty is from 5000 to $4,000, and each
day upon which such unlawful combi-
nation was carried on constitutes a
separate offense and involves a sepa-
rate penalty. The defendant assocla-
tons enter the protest that the enor-
nifty of the penalty provided renders
the statute unconstitutional, and the
point is now subject to construction,
and much interest attaches to its prob
able disposition by the supreme court.

According to Col. Reroy t. Taylor,
chairman of the board of penitentiary
trustees, all connected with the sys-
tenn, trustees and employees, feel en-
couraged to believe that with ordi-
nary diligence, intelligent handling
and favorable weather conditions, the
state has lost nothing on account OF
the bad spell of April weather, except
time and the cost of the seed neces-
sary for replanting. The %replanting
has been done and the officers are
alert and wideawake and ready for
the fray, and with a good supply OF
labor at command, they feel that, they
can take care of any situation as ii
develops.
Speaking generally OF the property
and it's condition, Col. Taylor says:
Daily improvement of the state
property is being made and the peo-
Pile of Mississippi would be surprised
IL they were to see and could realize
the phenomenal necessary changes
which have been made during the year
1910 thus far. The stock, consisting
of horses, mules, cattle, hogs, are in
good condition and we'll cared for. Our
policy will be, as heretofore, to make
the penitentiary institution self-sus-
tanning in every respect, that policy
being to plant literally in feed crops,
and, after that, make all the cotton we
can"
Since the appeal was carried to the
United States supreme court, several
of the plaintiffs in error have come
forward and paid into court the noml-
nal mount assessed, of 5000 each,
which the attorney general has paid
into the treasury.

Not a Candidate.

said Gov. Noel in reply to the direct
question as to whether he was or
would be a candidate for United States
senator in the coming primary, swheth-
er this fall or next year.
The statement has been made by
many persons and newspapers that
Gov. Noel was opposed to the proposed
special senatorial primary because he
probably desired or intended to be-
come a candidate before the people.
Governor Is Busy.
Gov. Noel will not be able to attend
the meeting of the State Bar Asssocia-
ton, to be held at Natchez, owing to
the expected pressure of other matters
on his time, much as he would like to

Sewing Machine Tax.

uuestion involved was whether q sew.
ing machine manufacturer, by paying
the state 5000 for q license, would be
subject to q tax in the several coun.
ties, or whether this tax allowed him
Ito conduct business wherever he chose
and without further taxation. He
holds that, by paying the $500 tax tbs

cense, may open as many agencies ~
