Eureka County Bank Matters

During the week there have been no new developments in the
Strengthening out Of the affairs Of the defunct Eureka County Bank.
1t was expected that there would be a meeting here this week of
the trustees to whom has been given a trust deed Of all the property
of the Eureka Live Stock Company in trust for the purpose of Sc
curing the payment to its creditors of its Indebtedness. The Board
of Trustees consists of R G. Turrittn, A E. Kimball and Receiver
Spencer Reynolds. The two former trustees have not arrived, and
therefore the proposed meeting has not been held. 1t was expected
that at this meeting arrangements would be made to take over all
the property of the Eureka Live Stock Company now in the hands
of Sheriff Mahoney and his keepers under attachments-the Trus-
tees assuming management Of the entire property.
In response to inquiries made Of the SENTrrEL as to when the
partial report of the present Grand Jury shall be published, it can
say that until the District Attorney sees fit to act on the order
of the Court and have bench warrants issued for the arrest and
prosecution of those against whom indictments have been found,
the report can not be published, as to publish the names Of the
indicted persons until then would be against the law. The Court
made the necessary order for bench warrants upon the filing of the
findings Of the Grand Jury two weeks ago, ut the District Attorney
arose and said he would not ask that bench warrants be served for
the present The Judge then pointedly said that neither the Court
nor Judge should be held responsible for the course being pursued
by the District Attorney, and there the matter stands at present.
But there is a limit to the time the District Attorney can with
hold the issuance of bench warrants and take the usual action on
the indictments found, and that limit will be reached when Court
meets for its next term on the first Monday in June.

Points Regarding The Census

The censu begins April Is and must
be completed in two weeks in cities and
in 80 days in all other areas.
The enumerators will wear a badge
inscribed United States Census. 1910"
The law requires every adult person
to furnish the prescribed information. but
also provides that it shall be treated
con~fdentially, so that no injury can
come to any person from answering the
questions.
The President has issued a proclama-
ton. calling on all citizens TO cooperate
with the Census and assuring them that
IL has nothing to do with taxation, army
or jury service, compulsory school at
tendance, regulation of immigration, or
enforcement of any law. and that no
N can be injured by answering the
inquiries.
1t is of the utmost importance that
he census Of population and agri.
culture in this State be complete and
correct.
Therefore every person should prompt.
ly. accurately, and completely answer
the Census questions asked by the
enumerators.

Made To Pay Under New Order

Made To Pay Under New Order
Salt Lake Telegram: Almost every
mining man Of this city, and especially
the stock traders on the local board will
remember the old Rocco-Homestake

A failing tiny nerve-no larger than
the finest silken thread--takes from
the heart its impulse, its power, its
regularity. The stomach also has its
hidden or inside nerve. 1t was DR..
Shoop who first told us it was wrong
to drug a weak or failing stomach, kid
neys or heart. His prescription-Dr.
Shoop's Restorative-is directed straight
for the cause of these ailmepts-these
weak and ffaitering nerves. This, lie
doubt, clearly explains why the Re
storative has of late grown so rapidly
in popularity. Druggists say that those
who test the Restorative even for few

its wonderful merit. Anyway don't
