VERY DElVIOuJT

A new parson was presented to a
remote agricultural district and
was anxious to make himself at
home with his flock as soon as
possible. He therefore began his
pastoral calls at once. Among the
first recipients of these attentions
was Farmer Jones, whose family
the new pastor had noticed to be
very regular and apparently very
devout attendants at church.
Farmer Jones was out, but his wife
received the parson, when the fol-
lowing dialogue took place: 81 am
your new rector, Mrs. Jones. l
have noticed with .great pleasure
your regular attendance at church
and have lost as little time as
possible, you see, in calling and
improving our acquaintance" eyes,

b'iged to be reg'lar at church, for
if we didn't go Farmer Smith claims

give it up for the likes O. him. So

EQUATORIAL AFRICA

Without musquito bar a white
person would be unable to live on
the equator, writes Ida Vera
Simonton in the Delineator.
No matter how hot and sitting
the highland no other place can
be so sitting as the equatorial
African night during the long rainy
season in the midst of the jungle
one must sleep under a closely
tucked in mosquito bar, and not the
ventilated kind civilization knows,
but one Of closely woven stuff
through which no air circulates.
When the musquito bar was let
down it took in almost the entire
room, but it proved especially useful
in sickness and cova'escence. It
permitted existence free from insect
bites. AS malaria is the white
mans most insidious foe and comes
from the bite of the mosquito, every
precaution must be taken against
it. Three things are absolutely
necessary in Africa-a musquito
bar, water filter and quinine.
The bed was made by native
carpenter. The frame was of wood,
the Stats of bamboo ribs fitted closely
together with pith side uppermost.
They didn't give a tit and were an
excellent dancing floor for the dried
plantain leaves which made the
mattress. The leaves were confined
beneath ticking tackled to the four
sides of the bed, but they matted
easily, and every night it was con-
tinuous leaf for me. The bamboo
was slippery, and insomnia kept me
and the leaves on the move, so
that most of the time | slept on a
hard surface. My pillow was of
dried sweet smelling grass. Who
ever says that hard beds are beauti-
fiers should sleep upon an African
bed

ALASKA HAS LARGE
AGRICULTURAL AREA

The area of Alaska is so great
that the United States governme mt
maintains agricultural experime mt
stations in the territory, so situate d
that crops may be tested under all
the climatic conditions. C. C..
Georgeson, special agent in charge
of the station, in his annual report
of 1908 declares unquaifieldy that
ALASKA is an agricultural country"
that good hay can be produced
Sin any quantity" for winter feed
ing, while the native grasses "can
maintain the live stock in excellent
condition in summer" He says also
potatoes, cabbage, caulifiower,
rhubarb, turnips, lettuce and in short
all the hardy vegetables, can be
grown to perfection up to and even
within the arctic circle, as has been
proven by thousands of settlers"
But before Alaska can be largely
settled railroads and wagon roads
must be built.
Abundant sunshine is essential
to good crops in Alaska. In 1908
the rainfall during the growing
season at Sitka was 1922 inches,
against 24.76 inches the year
before and 1891 inches in 1906.
The smaller rainfall meant more
sunshine, and the result in 1908
was large crops Of potatoes, cab
bage, caulif1ower and various root
crops. The quality was also better.
Among the many interesting facts
given in the report is this: Water
melons were brought to maturity
out of doors on the Hot Springs
farm, which is in the Tanana valley
in latitude I'd north. 1t seems that
on part of this farm the soil is
warmed up from the same source,
whatever it is, that heats the water
of the springs. This farm has now
$50 acres regularly under crop,
the greater portion devoted 10
potatoes.-Boston Transcript.

GIRL -REPRfHANDED'
SHOT HERSELF

Following a reprimand admins
tered to his grandchild for going to
dance after being forbidden to do
so, Miss Lois Holland, the beautiful
17-year-old daughter of Charles
Holland, proprietor of the Holland
at Yerington, committed suicide
Sunday AFTERNOON by firing bullet
into her right temple at her grand
fathers ranch seven miles from
Yerington. The tragedy occurred
at 1880 o'clock and the coroner's
jury returned verdict that death
resulted from a gunshot wound
inflicted by herself. Very little
has come to light to disclose the
real cause of the suicide. The
tragedy proved; a shock to the entire
community as the family and the
girls are we'll known and popular.

A young gentleman of the colore d

the counter where these goods were

hesitatingly, remarked, "Ah want

STOREY COUNTY WILL
SUE GOVERNMENT

An interesting turn in events
took place at last nights meeting
OF the county commissioners in the
matter of the bill of Storey county
against the Federal government for
four years housing of U. S. prisoners
from 1905 to 1908, inclusively,
amounting to $3,641.66, when
District Attorney Noel was in
structed to institute suit for the
amount in the Federal courts in
Carson City. This action on the
part of the commissioners was
instigated by letter received from
U. s. District Attorney Sam Fiatt
of Carson, who took the matter up
with the authorities at Washington,
where the bill was rejected and
not considered. 1t was thought
that the matter could be amicably
adjusted out of court, but the only
recoure is the courts, now that the
bill has been thrown out at Wash
ington.
? For the past dozen or fourteen
years short term Federal prisoners
have been boarded at the Storey
county Jail under an arrangement
by the sheriff with the u. S. Marshal
for feeding alone. The state
statutes provide that the Federal
government shall pay at the rate
of SIS per month for each prisoner
for housing which includes light,
fuel, bed, etc, and it is under this
provision that the county seeks
remuneration. AS far as is known
there is no existing contract or
arrangement with the Federal
government for the lodging of
prisoners at the local Jail. Suit
will be brought for the above
amount, although the lodging of
prisoners for 1909 and 1910 to July
l, is now, due, according to the be-
lief of the commissioners, which
brings the total amount to over $5,-
600. After July 1st, Washoe
county gets the Federal prisoners
at rs cents a head per day for
board and SIS year each for lodging.

PRIMARY LAW DECISION

the primary election law is a very
lengthy document. Following are
the concluding paragraphs:
If for any reason the law pre-
cludes qualified elector and can
didate from appearing on the official
ballot or precludes any qualified
elector from voting for any qualified
candidate, the law to that extent
would be unconstitutional. How
ever, the petitioner in this proceed
ing is in no position to raise this
point, and until such a proposition
is presented Ito us by qualified
elector or candidate, who believes
he is deprived of an electoral right,
guaranteed him under the con-
stitution, we do not deem it necessary
to pass upon the law in this respect
until such condition arises and is
properly before the court.
In conclusion, it is proper to OBJ
serve that the political conditions
of the country at the present time
show that there is a political
evolution going on in the legislatures
of the various states, attempting
to regulate, strengthen and purify
our political system and bring as
near to the people as the consti-
tuition of the states of the Union
will allow a more direct partici-
patton in the selection of candidates
and adoption of measures for the
common good. ..
Nevada, in common with the
majority of the states of the Union,
is abreast Of the times in this
legislation. In accord with our
constitution and the principles here
in enunciated, we believe that the
power of selecting candidates and
the privilege of initiating legislation
may be brought as directly in touch
with the people as it is possible to
do, and that as soon as the present
direct primary system now being
initiated is perfected, the various
states will adopt this mode of select
ing its nominees for office with
an equal rapidity as did practically
every state in the Union, in the SOL
ution of the effort of securing more
thorough, secret, honest and indie
pendent ballot, adopt the Australian
ballot in substitution of the old
ballot used for practically over a
hundred years. The Australian
ballot law, when it first made it's
appearance, was attacked as freely
as the direct primary measures are
now being assailed. This practice
of assaulting any innovation or
reform in the old established
methods of conducting the political
welfare of the various parties is
neither surprising nor to be
criticised or condemned. While all
innovations in long established
customs are carefully and seriously
to be considered before they are to
be accepted as substitutes, and if
unconstitutional to be promptly
repealed unless the people see fit to
amend their constitution, if they
be declared unconstitutional, yet
it would be strange and anomalous,
indeed, if the rapid strides in
progress which civilization is maxi
ing in modern times in changing
and improving older methods in
