THE ANTI-GAMBLING LAW
AND IT'S EFFECT
Question as to Private Parties and Clubs
Also individuals

In another week open gambling III
the State OF Nevada will be matter
OF history, as the law passed by the
last Legislature puts all OF the games
on tne shell and prohibits anything
that has an indication OF game OF
chance. In Keno and the larger
towns the gamblers are ready to fold
their tents and hunt pastures new.
Several OF the boys here will take d
vacation and look up other territory
ii possible for operations.
There is one thing that can be said
concerning the boys who have been
dealing al the games and that is that
they have been fine lot of fellows.
who have attended strictly TO their
own business and as consequence
have made friends on every hand.
Most OF the dealers have been mar
ried men who have maintained homes
here and formed circle OF friends
1t is hoped that the boys will be
able to get another job and stay with
us.
Ormsby County has been heavy
beneiitter from the licensed gambling
games. Thousands of dollars have
been poured into the City Treasury
through licenses. and this as a reve-
nue. to maintainence will be cut off
with the new law going into effect.
Other taxation will have to be levied
TO take the place OF the fund furnish
ed by the gambling. For a time, al
least. there Will felt a new drain that
will make the taxpayer SIT up- and
take notice.
Considering the friendly card
games that have been III vogue for
many years there is feeling OF un
rest. Just how the new law is going
TO effect such games Is problem.
The ladies and their bridge clubs are

is also on the fence, while the sa-
looms are in the same condition.
Some lawyers contend that a liberal
translation of the law will allow
friendly games where there is no
stake or premium involved; 3n the
other hand disciples of Blackstone
declare that having cards ia ones
possession subjects the holder to the

The pardon OF the early offenders
with the idea of preparing a greater
and stronger penalty for the later
ones would prove inconsistent with
the proceedings of the body of men
chosen by the people to guard their
interests seriously and earnestly"
concluded the court as the motion to
dismiss and dischorge was denied.
1t is now probable, and possible,
that counsel for Golden will appeal
to the Supreme Court at Carson for
a writ of prohibition, asking that the
local court be prohibited from try
ing the case on October 5th, the date
for which it was set The request
for the writ of prohibition win be
based on the same grounds as the
motion to dismiss, as filed in the 10
cal court; counsel alleging that the
former Act should have been repeal
ed when the latter was enacted.
AS has been set forth in different
law reports, the intention of the Leg
islature is the law itself, and trivial
technicalities are not considered in
carrying out the original intent
However, whatever construction
may be placed against the Act. there
is little doubt but that the case will
come to trial on the date set Tono-

IMPORTANT DECISION IN
NYE & ORMSBY BANK CASE
Judge Averill Decides Against Frank Golden
---May Appeal Case

Judge Mark Averill, in the Fifth
Judicial District Court, this morning
handed down a ruling on the motion
to dismiss the charges of embezzle
ment against Frank Golden and dis
charge the defendant from custody,
denying the request Golden. the
President of the Nye s. Ormsby Co.
Bank, was indicted by the present
Grand Jury and charged with embez-
zlng the funds OF the bank. At first
Golden demanded an immediate trial
but after thinking the matter over he
decided to take advantage of every
legal technicality afforded. and moved
that the case be dismissed
The grounds for this motion were
that the Act OF the Legislature OF
1907 and the Act OF 1909 were in CON
hict as the former Act had not been
repealed when the latter went into ef-
feet
In the ruling Judge Averill found
that the Act was formulated with the
intent of affordine protection to the
people against unscrupulous bankers.
The court further held tha, the Leg
islature Of 1909 did not intend to re
peal the Act of 1907, but purposely
left it to accomplish what good it
could as violations of it might be
brought to light

NOT A TOMBSTONE BUT
A TOWER OF STRENGTH
Standing of Senator Newlands in the Demo
cratic Party Is Assured

The News OF this morning publish
es silly story concerning Senator
Newlands' recent vissit to this city,
intimating that the Democratic Sen
ator is merely tombstone" etc.
The foundation for the story was
that when the Senator went to the
train at 3 p. IN. he was not accom-
panied by swarm OF iawning syco-
plants. The simple fact is that the
Senator does not like any such dis
play, and never did. But while he
was here he was in close conference
with the recognized leaders OF his
own party, and the relations estab-
lished are OF the most friendly.
As the campaign progresses it will
be found by our morning contem-
porary that Senator Newlands, in
stead OF being a tombstone" is a tow
er OF strength for the Democratic

ELECTION
SATURDAY
Trouble Expected in Many Con-
StituenCieS- Steps to Pre-
vent RiOting.
One of the Most Bitter Contests
Held in a Number
of Years.
UNITED PRESS LEASED w1RE.I

London, Jan. 13.--The authorities
today are making elaborate plans to
prevent rioting at the elections which
will be held tomorrow aad Saturday
as it is feared that the spirit shown
throughout the campaign may result
in serious outbreaks at the polls. The
voting will be done tomorrow in o
few boroughs but the main election
will be held Saturday.
The violent breaking up of political
cal meetings which became almost
the customary form of ending i'm
portant gatherings during the cam
paign, forbodes violence.
The police say that gangs of row.
dies made it a point to attend all
| big assemblages not for the purpose
of questioning speakers legitimately,
/ but with the intention of preventing
them from speaking at all. These
actions have been encouraged by
some partisan newspapers on both
sides which gloated by the column
OFSl JuC llOCOuS oSCIlCS dJ IlS OppO-
sition" meetings.
The situation has developed to
some extent from the fact that
large number of peers who know lit
tie of politics and had never before
Uakbnan active part, went on the
stump. They have been dubbed
"backwoodsmen" Many of them
never attended a session of parlia-
ment until summoned to vote against
the Lloyd George budget. Batting
was so easy and so entertaining that
the general public as well as the
regular party rowdies took a hand
in it
Trouble is expected especially in
the northern counties of Lancashire
and Yorkshire, where the political
contest has been the hottest. The
population there is perhaps the
toughest in England. The police
forces in all important towns in these
sections have been reinforced.
1t is reported today that secret
orders have been given to the COM
manders of military posts in the
north to hold themselves in readiness |
for police duty in case of the civil |
authorities finding the situation too |
much for them to handle,

PORTLAND
CAPITALIST
BUYS HERE
Pays Over Five Hundred DOL
lars an Acre for Fruit
Tract on Garden
Road.

A few days ago Portland capital
lists bought the Kehrberger place on
the Garden Road, and now another
Portland capitalist has bought the
Brown place, and will locate at the
Capital City. The news leaked out
today that r. F. Liggett of Port
land had purchased the G. E. Brown
place on the Garden Road. 1t con-
sists of thirteen acres, mostly fruit,
and a good residence, and the price
paid was seven thousand dollars
cash. The sale was made through
Derby Il Wilson, who have offices
in the new United States Bank
building.
