Supreme Court Called
Upon to Decide More
Points On Primary Law

depreciation of that section and
propounded several hypothetical
questions. Fowler occupied the
floor for a considerable length of
time in an endeavor to show that
the law did not specifically pro-
hibit the writing in of names and
quoted from decisions of other
states in support of his conten-
lions.
Justice Talbot then took hand
in the questioning and asked Fow-
Ter if he would be satisfied If the
order of the previous day were SO
voters writing in the names for
county committeeman and no 9TH
ers. Fowler then started on an
other discussion and the question
was repeated. He expressed his
willingness to abide by the decision
of the court, and a recess was TAX
en- for the purpose of considering
the matter before the court.
During the discussion telegram
was presented from the county
clerk of Eureka county stating
that the official ballots had been
printed and that if the decision of
the previous day were upheld it
would require more paper. The
known shortage of proper paper for
official ballots arose like a night
mare and News reporter was
called on to state whether the new
form, If one were necessary, could
ho nrintod IN tho hack 0f thp hal
lots run off. 1t was shown that
every ballot bears a printed en-
dorsement on the back and that
such a course would be impracti-
cable. 1t appears that some of the
! county clerks have been over
jealous in having the official bal.
lots turned out on time and that
complications may arise therefron
in case the application for re
hearing is denied.
\ Under the terms of the law any
person has the right to protest
against the form of correctness o.
sample ballot up to ten days be
fore the day set for the primar!
election. 1t is evident that some
flaws must be found in the work
ings of the new law, and wher'
} many county clerks have the prep
aration of ballots in charge, differ
ences are bound to occur. Whel
, ballots are printed hastily compli
cations are bound to arise in cas-
, of this kind where the workings o

be followed in the primaries this
time without fail, as, since the first
opinion, the members of the court
have studied the matter over care
fully and have many significant pc
culiarities of the Nevada law point
ed out.
The decision will place the mat
ter back in the light 1t has been
viewed for some time previous to
the first opinion. Since the pass
age of the law it was understood
generally that there was to be no
writing on the ballot except the
name of the county central COM
mitteeman, and only in his case,
because there was no provision
made for his nomination by petit
ticn.
The cour. states that because no
other way provided, one may
:, lite in tn name of his choice f.. =
county committeeman, but he must
not forget to stamp cross after
it. A voter may not write in the
name of a candidate simply be-
cause he observes that there is a
blank space apparently for that pur-
pose. He may not write name in
even if the name of the Office is
printed on the ballot-say justice
of the supreme court as is the
case with the Democratic primary
ballot.
If it happens that the ballot con-
tains the designation of an office
for which there are no aspirants
with names printed on the ballot
the court regards this as mere sur
plusage and no harm.
The first decision set the wheels
of many a shrewd plot a-workine
and the second and final decision
will create as much of a sensation
by stopping these plans. There
were all sorts of smooth tricks vi
the ample sleeves of the politicians
but they are spoiled now.

1t has been stated on what is be-
lieved to be reliable authority that
the Belmont company is preparing
to let contracts to sink its new
enlarged shaft to a further depth
of 400 feet, which will give it a
total depth of over 1900 feet. 1t
is probable also that as fast as
each lift of 100 feet is dropped

JURY SECURED; TAKING
OF TESTIMONY BEGINS
First Witness, John Book, Gives Some
Damaging Evidence Against Frank
White, Slayer of Charles Black.

angry and loud and abusive in his
language, while Black seemed to
be in conciliatory mood. The
discussion appeared to be about the
right to the possession of tent,
situated about rs feet in the rear
of Blacks cabin, which was used
as a stable. Toward the close of
the quarrel Black made the remark
that he had a stove in the stable
that he would want to take out,
whereupon White, with his gun
still in readiness to be fired, told
Black that he had been in that
stable for the last time and imme-
diately discharged the left barrel
of the gun into Blacks face. Black
was evidently killed instantly, as
he never moved after he fell.
The witness was clear and en-
phatic in his statements to the
effect that throughout the incident
Black used no threats and made nc
demonstrative motions. After shoot
ing White proceeded to the house
of a man named Patterson, the wit
ness following him up, where ht
delivered the shotgun to Patterson
with the remark: Here's YOU
gun; I've shot Black and I've sho
him good and hard" On cross
examination the witness testified
that a few moments before the ia
tai shot Black thrust his RICH
hand into the pocket of his over
alls, but did not withdraw it, ant
fell with his hand still in hi
pocket.

The decision of the supreme
court on the direct primary law
was the sole topic of conversation
all day yesterday. Early in the
morning plans were prepared for
taking advantage of all loopholes
afforded under the decision in sew
eral quarters. Politicians began to
get busy and frame-ups were start
ed that would defeat the intent of
the law and in cases make the
nomination equivalent to election.
County Clerk Patterson, who has
made deep study of the law, and
who is always on the job, immedi-
ately got busy and engaged counsel
to appear before the supreme court
and apply for rehearing. In
the meantime he posted himself on
several matters bearing on the in
tent of the legislature with refer
ence to the operation of the law,
and was prepared to show that the
decision of the court was at vart-
ance with the spirit of the law.
The news of Patterson's action
soon spread and activity along the
line of ward politics came to a
Ytandstill. Those directly interest
ed in the campaign sought all sorts
of legal advice on the question and
bided their time until the court
would hear the application for a
rehearing.
Pearls Ellis opened the case with
a discussion as to the true intent
of the legislature in the primaries
and proceeded along the lines that
nowhere in the Act was there any
thing that would allow a voter to
write in the name of any person
of his choice. He contended that
the law was direct and specific as
to nominations and that no one had
q right to nomination who had not
followed the provisions set forth
regarding petitions.
County Clerk Patterson was cal!
ed upon to express his views before
the court, and in concise state
ment explained his position II. The
matter. His statement followed the
lines Of Ellis argument, setting
forth his views as to lawful, noni-
nations
Deputy Attorney General Fowler
then took up his side of the case
and argued that the law allowed
the voter to express his choice II

case in California. AT this poin

With the securing of jury,
which was accomplished before adj
journment for the noon hour in
the district court yesterday, the
taking of testimony in the case of
Frank White, charged with the
murder of Charles Black, began.
The jury was not secured, how
ever. until the defense had exer-
cised four peremptory challenges
and the prosecution three. The
Jury which will try the case is
made up of the following:
E. P. Clendennin, A. J. Daniels,
Warren H. Bond, William Parker,
G.. N. Derringer, William G. Cook,
Milton H. Hatton, j. H. May, D..
H. Walker, George Falkenstein,
Fritz Tobac and A. J.. Gingle.
Taking of testimony began i'm
mediately after the noon recess and
the first witness called by the state
was John Book, who stated that
he lived in a cabin about 200 feet
in the rear of Blacks cabin.
About six o'clock in the evening
of the 18th of April his attention
was attracted by loud talking in
the direction of the Black cabin.
He Immediately went to the door
of his cabin and saw Black in the
act of coming out and White ad-
vancing with double-barreled
shotgun leveled at Black, calling
upon him to come out and contin-
uing to abuse him as he advanced
Black walked some six or eight
feet from the cabin door and Their
stood still until White had ad
vanced to within fifteen feet Of
him. At this point the two mer
engaged in a wordy alteration

leveled upon Black. White was yer.
