Plenty of Work For Legislature

The Tonopah Bonanza publishes a list of much needed leglsla-
ton which our law makers should take heed Of
First-Revise the present divorce law, requiring longer residence
in the State and requiring that residents be bona fde.
Seeond-Amend the present banking law In a number OF
particulars. While such a law is not intended for irrigation pur-
poses, it ought to hold water, anyway.
Third-Amend the law as regards open mine shafts, wells,
etc, which are a menace to life and limb, so that prosecution may
be had in the local. justice court.
Fourth-Pass a Islander law, so that the individual who de-
flames another by word of mouth runs the risk of the same punish
ment as would the newspaper man who published the same story.
Fihh-Amend the present law requiring mining corporations
to publish annually a statement of the years business, so that these
statements shall be published in the newspaper nearest the mines
of the corporation.
Sixth--Require County Treasurers, ~depositing money in banks
or fduciary concerns, to exact an indemnity bond for security.
Seventh.-Give ten years in the penitenhary to the officials OF
a bank receiving deposits knowing the institution to be insolvent
Eighth.-Enacta law for the protection of individuals against
water, electric and gas companies, wherein a penalty will result
from the wrongful reading of meters.

bankrupt
The bank had claim OF about $4,000
and that of the father amounted to
some So 1000. Other various claimants
filed an aggregate Of about $500. About
10 per cent Of the first TWO will be
paid according to the decision just

use of gasoline engines equipped with

With gasoline engine Of local con-

cleared twenty acres OF land and took
