County Claims.
Committee Report.


"R. II. Hoffman, Foreman:
Your committee on auditing ac-
counts of the several county officers
has examined the report on examina-
ton of accounts of White Pine
ty. made by the firm of Warwick,
Mitchell & Co. who were engaged for
that purpose by the board of county
commissioners, under direction of
this grand jury, and which we find to
be very exhaustive and complete,
covering in detail the financial af-
fairs of each county office and the
conduct thereof; assembling in a
general statement all assets and
liabilities with an analysis of each
account and thereby showing the
financial condition of this county to
be in good shape. OF paramount i'm
portance this examination shows the
shortage developed in the Office of
Sheriff A. J. Butler to be $3,474.S7
net and due the county c%ollectable
under his bond. This does not in
clude the s~3.42S.65 due the state on
account collection of state licenses.
I'VE herewith submit this report
and suggest that it be made a part of
the grand jury's report of its pro-
ceedings.
Attention is called in the report
that the court house. which repre-
sents an outlay of over $50. 000 is
insured only to the extent of $26,500;
we recommend that additional in
uranee be placed there on to at least
SO per cent of the cost of the build
mug and that the $1,000 insurance
now upon the furniture (Which cost
$~6,595.62) be extended to cover the
library.
Respectfully submitted.

MOVING PICTURE SHOW.

The October Woman's Home Com
panion contains an article on THE
Moving Picture Show" what it really
means in the town and what 1t ought
to mean. Eight million people visit
moving picture shows daily in this
country. There are 5000 moving
picture theaters. One hundred mil
lion dollars are invested in the bust
ness. Why not make this great
force a power for good?
There is more money to be made
out of wholesome moving pictures
than bad ones Following is an ex-
tract from the article:

learn there is no open gambling in
this county. The sheriff recently
notified the proprletors of all places
where gambling was likely to be
carried on that none will be permitted.
The sheriff has assured the grand
Jury of his intention to faithfully en-
force the provisions of the anti
gambling law to the best OF his
ability.
Central Ely Shooting.
The sheriff's attention was called
to reports of unknown parties dis
charging firearms in Central Ely at
night and he was urged TO investi-
gate the reports and endeavor to
learn who the guilty parties are and
arrest them.
Cunningham Shortage.
The attention of your grand jury
was called to the Cunningham defs'-
cation in the sum of $3.50 and 1t is
noted that no authority has been
given for correcting entries upon the
books of account of the county audi
tor to cover the disparity existing be-
tween the auditors and treasurer's
accounts. The material facts in the
-. 90, foIIAu-g.
..One A. G. Cunningham, while in
the employ of the county as deputy
recorder and auditor, obtained cash
upon county warrants forged or
fraudulently issued by him purport-
ing to be regularly issued upon the
county general and county school
funds as follows:
No. 793, June Z, 1909, Caroline S.
Brown. for teaching, Valley school
district fund, $65.
NO. 794, June I. 1909. A. G..
Asper. for labor and supplies. McGill
school district fund, $50.
NO. 1854, July, 1909, Irwin Hold
son Co., general fund, $685..
These forged warrants, endorsed
by Cunningham for the respective
payees, were paid by treasurer's
check to the order of Cunningham,
delivered to him by County Treasurer
A. s. Leahigh without proper written
authority. Cunningham, who soon
after departed from White Pine coun-
ty. was subsequently indicted by the
grand jury sitting in the fall of 1909
but has never been apprehended for
trial. He was not under bond to the
county but was bonded by the Ameri-
can Bonding company of Baltimore
in the penal sum of $1,000 payable,
in the event of legal liability, to VIM.
Mcknight personally. Because of
some alleged technical defect in the
bond, or in the claim made by Me
Knight for payment under the bond,
the bonding company eyaded pay
ment. Mr.. Mcknight denies his per-
sonal liability to the county because
of default of his deputy and refused
and does still refuse to repay the
sum lost to the county. Mr.. Lea
high, formerly county reasure and
who, while serving in that capacity
paid said fraudulently issued war
rants to Cunningham, also diselaims
liability and has refused to reim-
burse the county. Upon this recital
of facts and upon the advice of the
district attorney the following reso-
buttons were adopted:
Resolved, That while both Mr..
Mcknight and Leahigh should be
severely censured for culpable neg
lect of the affairs Of their respective
Offices with respect to this transac-
ton. it is the sense of this grand jury
that neither of these officials were
guilty of criminal intention or wilful
wrong doing;
Resolved, That the board of eoun-
ty commissioners be requested to
make correction of these fraudulent
warrants by %cancelling entries on the

p~eaceable community is one which
must be severely condemned and We
are of the opinion that on conviction
for such a violation of laws of this
state. defendants in such cases should
be given the maximum penalty. We
have conveyed this opinion to the
Justice of the peace for Ely town
ship together with the assurance that
he will have the support of all the
members of this grand jury and, we
believe, of all law-abiding citizens
when he imposes the extreme penal
ty in such cases. No judge should
permit any consideration to stand in
the way of making the practice OF
carrying firearms an obsolete one

DisreputabIe Young Men.

Investigation of the moral con-
ditions of the city of Ely brought to
your jury the knowledge that numer-
Gus young men we're habitues of the
redlight district and were believed
10 be living off the earnings of the
fallen women who reside there.
Several of these men were summon
ed before the jury for investigation
with the result that one of them was
turned over to the sheriff as a desert
er from the United States navy while
the records of the others and
some who were not summoned are be-
ing further Investigated. Such men
arc lower in the social scale than the
women with whom they associate and
are parasites not only on the women
but on the community at large. In
respect to such male characters your
grand jury believe the police officers
of the city and county should be more
severe with them, and either bring
charges against them under the city
ordinances or state laws that will
result in a conviction or do all they
can to make this city and county an
undesirable place of residence for
such men.

Disorderly Saloons.

Complaint has been made of dis
orderly conduct in some saloons in
the Ely mining district, particularly
In these outside the city of Ely. The
grand jury recommends and insists
the board of county commissioners
take c%ognizance of such complaints
and revoke the liceses of all prop
rietors who permit their places to
become disorderly and notorious as
resorts which women are allowed to
frequent and associate with the male
patrons. In several parts of the dis
trict near the mines and smelter
saloons exist close to the residence
sections where the families of respec-
table citizens reside. Some of them
harbor dissolute women and at times
are very d~isorderly places. Such
places should be closed up by the
revocation of the proprietor's licen-
SEES and the proprietors should not
be permitted to engage In the same
business in any part of the county.
Owners of property where saloons
are conducted should be held respon-
sible if such a course is possible I'M

His assailants also inflicted other wounds which were not dangerous, but the head of the deceased showed the ef- fleets of being badly beaten up with blunt weapons.
 Three MeXicans were arrested, charged with the deed. and placed in the county jail, and later a prelim- mary hearing will be given them
 What led to the altercation could not be learned. but the suppositioh is that there had been an ill feel ing against Rodriguez before he came to work on the road in this city, and while all were said to be under the inuence of liquor, trouble followed a trivial dispute, with the result that an old grudge is said to have come to the surface. and the tragedy fol- lowed. The dead man was preparing % leave the country, receiving his discharge the day before. A widow and four children in destitute circum- stances are left behind by the de- ceased. and other relatives are said to be living in southern Arizona.
