YERINGTON WINS THE
COUNTY SEAT FIGHT
Supreme Court Renders Decision
Upholding the Lower Court

The Supreme Court this morning
rendered its decision in the matter
| OF the removal of the court house and
archives from Dayton TO Yerington
the new county seat established by
the late Legislature.
After the passage OF the law The
people of Dayton questioned the con
stitutionality OF the Act, contending
that emergency must be shown. That
the majority of the taxpayers did not
desire the removal of the county seat
and that it was special law. All OF
the objections were overruled i'll the
District Court, Judge French render
ing the decision. The Supreme Court
in its decision to-day overrules all OF
the objections and finds that the law
is constitutional i'll all its particulars.
The law takes effect on the first
day of May, next Monday. From that
period on the seat of government Of
Lyon County will be at lerington.
The last stone has been turned and
Dayton loses.
The decision of the Supreme Court
goes into very minute details. Many
cases are cited that sustain the decis
ion. In concluding the decision the
Court says;
1T must be conceded that great
financial loss will result temporarily
to property owners of Dayton by the
removal OF the county seat, and that
it is natural for them to make an eff
fort to prevent such removal for the
protection OF their own best inter
ests. On the other hand if the ma
Jority of the taxpayers and voters of
the county live in localities where

New Law
to be Tested

The first trouble over the eight
hour law passed by the Legislature
occurred a, the Yellow Iacket mine
in Gold Hill yesterday when the
management insisted on the top
hands working ten hours and they all
quit. One laborer returned 10 wor'
ten hours but was given scare and
will probably shake the dust of this
section from his feet The matter
will likely be taken into court and the
constitutionality of the law will be
determined. If the law is upheld the

last evening. Mr.. Adamson was on
his way to Fallon where he will
spend several days looking after the

ORATOR|O SOCIETY
 GIVES FINE MUSIC

The concert given by the Birmingham Oratorio society at Cable hall last night for the benefit of the Humane society was a most enjoyable affair. The chorus was in fine form and the various solos were well rendered. One or two of them were especially artistic. Among the finest of the solos was Miss Perkins violin piece. This young lady, who by the way is a pupil of Oliver Chalfoux, has not only temperament, but she produces tone at once sweet and firm. Her style is full of grace.
 Prof. Fred Y. Grambs is the director of the Oratorio society and Mrs. s. R. Cole man is the accompanist. Both were com plmented on their excellent work last night.
 The audience was not large enough to fill the hall, but those present showed their appreciation by hearty applause. The programme follows:
