POSTING NAMES OF
DRUNKS At lOVELOCK

The Tribune says that last
week Constable Wolf presented all
of the saloon keepers of Lovelock
with list of frequenters OF the
place TO whom was forbidden to
sell or give any Intoxicating
liquors.
There has been some discussion
as to whether the persons whose
names were posted on order of
Constable Wolf can properly be
placed in the class designated in
the statute for the reason that
many of them are not members
of dependent families.
1t appears that a strict con-
struciion Of the statute will limit
such posting of names to those
who are members of families and
who, wh"n drunk are a menace to
the life health or peace of their
families or who fail to provide
the common necessaries of life for
those dependent upon them.
Single men, probably do not fall
under the class mentioned in the
statutes.
However, for the present. at
least, the Constable has certainly
put the Indian sign on a number
of citizens and great is the wrath
over on the Main street. Hum

PROF. YOUNG SCARED

While Professor Young of the
Nevada University, was visiting
the Lorena Oil district he had an
experience that he will not soon
forget.
Fne peofes)r carries sleeping
bag with him and any one who has
ever slept in one knows how help
less the occupant is after he retires.
After supper and chat around
the fire ell kands retired. Now
the rig in which the professor and
the writer drove out to the dis
trict was accompanied by a little
colt which possessed very serious
turn of mind, and a penchant for
searching the camp for potato
peelings and tin cans. Along
about midnight when fair Luna
was casting her silvery light over
the desert solitude the professorIlet
out a hair.raising yell that awoke
the camp and brought all hands
to the rescue.
An investigation disclosed the
fact that the colt had quietly step
ped its forefeet on each side of the
professors head and when he
awoke he was staring into the
eyes Of tie animal, which was
Investigating the camp. At first
the professor thought he had a
nightmare and was dreaming of
being crushed by the great
prehistoric monsters, whose re-
mains he had been exploring
during the day. The colt has
nearly recovered from the shock il
received from the professors wild

Havana, June 17.-That the shAtter-

The bow section is still nearly 20
feet below the surface and here, 1t Is
believed, the destruction Will De

quarters in the after-structure soon,
where they may find the body Of En-
sign Merritt, the only officer missing
the body OF Lieutenant jenkins, the
only other officer killed, having been

chihuahua, Mex, June 16.-Reforms
Immediately affecting millions OF dol
lars worth Of American property In
Mexico have been announced. Gov
Abram Gonzales declared that under
the new regime foreign concessions
which might be considered monopolies
would not be extended or renewed.
Every legal effort will be made to re-
strict foreign monopolles now exist
ing In Chihuahua. This ID one OF
the richest states In minerals and
timber. "4s
Gov. Gonzales said I'VE do not In
tend to take away the riches Of any
foreigner who legally holds them, but
we realize that under the Diaz system
the granting Of CONCESSIONS with their
ruinous payments OF large sums OF
money to Mexican politicians was .
virtual selling out Of Mexico.
OF course, we do not Intend to Ques-
tIon the right Of concessions' legally
held, but we shall refuse to encourage
or extend unjust ones. g.
1--WE hope to maintain the friend
Hest relations with Americans and we
shall invite all foreign capital to come
in, but there will be no more selling
out Of the country by piecemeAl. We
will invite competition, not monopoly.
III American capital wishes To come
here It must be prepared to compete
with Mexican capital. No exclusive
privileges will be given TO foreigners.

Of men are employed will be abol'

people will have the benefit Of buying

Gov. Gonzales stated that the export
duty on cattle shipped into the United
States would be removed. 1t also has
been decided upon by the government
to allow Gen. Orozco to bring his in
surrecto army into the city with their
arms. The city, while the insurrectos
are here, will be protected by a COM
