EUREKA BANK MUDDLE
CAUSES A SENSATION
DickerSOn Sends Out
Public Statement. Defendants
Furnish Bail

After the. serving OF warrants BY
the state police on members OF the
Eureka County Bank, the parties ar
rested were in each instance released
on bonds. The fight has just started
as the interested parties will move all
the legal machinery TO fight the hear
ing OF the case in Eureka County.
The rumor that was prevalent that
the old Bankin Board, consisting OF
former Governor Dickerson, Sam
Belford, Chas. Sprague and others,
were under arrest, seems TO have been
more rumor than anything else, the
fact that the Eureka Grand jury
brought in ten indictments probably
gave cause to the rumor 1t certain
ly spread a sensation throughout the
state, and the fact that the State Po-
ice were called on to serve the war
rants made a great deal OF comment
as arrests are usually made by the
officers of a county. This is the first
instance where the Police have been
called into this class of service.
Ex-Governor Dickkerson, on being
telegraphed to regarding the rumored
arrest sent the following reply
ELY. New. July S-Have not
been served with warrant and do not
know why | should be- | have

, Attorney Mack for Receiver Frani
Wildes stated that the Supreme
Court had rendered its decision and
declared the section relative to the
Bank Examiner unconstitutional
therefore it was out OF consideration
and made motion that the case be
resumed, as the Receiver and all his
attorneys were present and ready for
business.
Judge Langan stated that the case
would proceed and Receiver Wildes
was placed on the stand The Judge
further stated that upon notification
that the petition Tor reheaIing has
been filed with the Clerk OF the Su-
preme Court that lie would immedia
tely set the case over until the mat
ter was decided by the Upper Court
The attorneys for the Directors all
filed exceptions 10 his rulings and il
is possible that writ OF prohibition
will be asked for by some OF the at
torneys for the defense. The balance
OF the .norning session was taken up
with the filing and reading of objec-
tons on the part OF the lawyers for
the defense
At the afternoon session OF the
court Judge Langan announced that
the case would go over until the 10th
day OF August This it is believed
will give the upppper Court chance
to handle the rehearing petition. 1t
was definitely tsated that he peti
ion would be filed on Friday the l4fh

Several successful results can be
chronicled in this county the present
season. Land that was cleared last
fall in several instances is giving
very good crops Of grain. On the
road leading toward Gardnerville
several small tracts OF grain have
been planted and in every instance
crops will result.
AT the old Herick place north Of
town there is good crop Of grain
that will be cut within short time.
This is strictly dry farm.
AT the Raycraft place they are
busy harvesting a heavy crop of rye.
This farm is a dry farm and for
years has been producing splendid
crops from this class of culture
Since Jim Raycraft took it over he
has increased the acreage and at the
present time it is in very high state
OF cultivation.
The, Sam Davis place. is cutting a
good crop of grain that has been rails
ed without irrigation.
AS the farmers in this section learn
the condition of soils and modern
methods of dry farming some very
astonishing results have been the re-
suit This season more acres will
produce in this valley than at any
time in its history
