.SE|GMULLER, PAROLED
INDIAN, IS IN THE TOLLS

Officer Conlan gathered in an
Indian last night for being drunk
and disorder. and it proved to be
Seigmuller, an Indian paroled last
January by the State Board of
Pardons. Miller was convicted of
murder in the first degree in Lin
coin county November %, 1898,
and was sentenced to death, but
was later committed to life SEN
tence. When searched he had a
quart bottle in his pocket, all but
few swallows of the whisky
having been put away. In the
justice court this morning, Judge
Mcdonald suspended sentence, and
called Warden Baker of the State
Penitentiary on the phone to know
what o do with the prisoner. The
warden state that the pardon
board meets tomorrow, and
Seigmuller is being held IN the
county Jail awaiting action of the
state officials. He has been mixed
up in several Indian squabbles
during the past few months. and il
is not proposed to have him hang
around this locality any longer.

expected to be here. but was
detained by the trial of an import
ant case. It was q keener dis
appointment to him than to the
people.
Judge Taber thanked the ladies
for their presence and called
attention to the fact that the jury
box was filled with ladies. AS the
people Of Nevada might be called
upon in the near future to vote
for woman suffrage, he asked the
audience to size up the jury in the
box as an example of what would
happen under woman suffrage.
With woman jury it would be
impossible to convict woman of
picking her husbands pockets or
hucliag kitchen utentils at his
devoted head.
Jugde Taber was given hearty
round of applause as he took his
seat.
The high school then sang the
Star Spangled Banner"
Judge Taber next told of the
difficulties he had in filling the
program and made humorous
references to several of the
county officials.
He then introduced District
Attorney Dysart who began by
saying he was indebted to Judge
Taher for his kind introduction to
what he was not going to say. He
said the county officials were not
bad lot of people and that each
would be glad to meet those
present and show them through
the building. The court house
was a splendid advertisement for
the county. 1t was honestly built
and the money it cost was well
spent. 1t will stand as a monu-
ment to the enterprise of the
people for years to come.
The choir then sang my Own
United States" and Recorder
Greathouse was then introduced.
He began by saying that beauty
amt loneliness in the jury box was
enough to knock the talk out of n
man. He praised the work of the
commissioners and said that the
people had value received for the
money spent in building and
furnishing the court house. They
had not built for today alone, but
for future generations. While
Nevada did not have the hest name
in the east the adverse opinions of
her agricultural resources were
formed from Pullman car
windows. He took up the
different valley and spoke
of their people and their
splendid agricultural resources
and heir wonderful possibilities.
He considered EIko county the
biggest piece Of ground lying out
of doors. He produced figures
and stated that the cost of the
court house to date was $l42,-
l60.77 few claims were yet to be
paid, but the total cost would not
exceed over $145, 900.
An instrumental selection by the
orhestra followed.
Jucge Taber in very enlogistic
remarks introduced Hon. George
+. Talbot, justice OF the supreme
court. Judge Talbot was re-
crived with sew eral rounds of ap
pIauses, which with the introduc =
ton of Judge Tabcr, affected him
sO deeply and he was hardly able
to proceed.
Owing to length Of this article
and the press Of other matters,
Judge Talbot's remarks will
appear tomorrow.

DEDICATION EXERCISES

E!ko county's new court house
presented abriliant appearance last
night. Electric lights from base
ment to dame, and even to the top
OF the fag-pole, threw a flood of
hight into every nook and corner
ot the stately bui ding. Long
before 1880 o'clock, the time set
Tor the beginning of the exercises,
people Hockel into the building
and when the exercises began
stand ing room was at a premium.
IL was representative gathering,
composed of people from every
section of the county. Beautiful
women, clnthed in their very best
sat side by side with the sturdy
men who make up the citizenship
Oh the county citizenship not
eXcelled by any county anywhere
IN this great and glorious country.
At 7:35, the Elko orchestra
played a selection, at the conclus-
ion f" which Judge Taber. called
the assea olage to order and made
the Introductory address.
He spoke Of the custom of
dedication of public buildings and
that it dated back before the
Christian Era gan. Solomon's
temple was dedicated with appro-
pirate ceremonies. To call these
exercises a dedication or by some
other name was of little import.
The fact remained that the people
had met to see what the rommis-
sOncrs had achieved in building
the court house and to it a hearty
God speed. He had seen all the
best court houses in the state and
had no hesitation in saying that
EIko county's building was far
ahead If the new court houses at
Ely, Tonnpah and Guldficld. The
only one in the state to rival ElkO
county 5 was that of WaShoe
county at Reno. This was due to
more stone and marble being use
IN the construction of the building
and its more luxurious furniture
and had cost much more money.
notwithstanding this, he considered
that Elko county lad the best
court house in the state and its
court room was certainly the
largest and best.
He spoke of the trip to Cali
fornia made by Commissioners
Moody, Lyttnn and Willis for the
purpose Of studying the new
courthouse in that state aud said
they brought back many good
ideas which were Incorporated in
the plan of the building. The
commissioners found that the
county officers they visited in Cali
fornia complained Of lack of room
for taking care of the papers and
records of their offices and that
this complaint was remcdied in
Elko county courthouse as the
Offices were large and roomy.
fhe commissioners were fortunate
in choosing an architect of
experience TO plan the building,
thus avoiding complaints. The
school house at Las Vegas was
planned Ivy an architect of limited
experience and it was source of
discomfort to the people. EIko
school district and Elko county
came nearer to getting value
received in the school house and
court house than is generally the
case III the construction of public
buildings The contractors are
siad to have lost $1,000 on the
court house.
The building was well lighted,
well heated. well ventilated and
its sanitary equipment was modern
and up-to date in every particular.
The furniture, though plain was
substantial and first class. The
