State Police After Indian Murderer

Sergeant p. NJ. Newgard. Of the
State Police. has been detailed by
Captain Cox to run down the Indian
murderer Queho. who recently ter.
rorized the country in the vicinity of
Eldorado Canyon, Clark County. Mr..
Newgard has arranged to organize a
posse, with Ike Alcock and J. E.
Babcock, the veteran Indian fighters,
who are now here, as leaders, and sew
eral expert Indian ~trsilers to assist and
follow the desperate Queho until he is
killed or captured. Sergeant N~ewgard
has the reputation OF getting the man
he goes after. With the splendid or.
ganization of the State Police behind
him and the expert knowledge of In
dian customs furnished by Alcock and
Babcock, Queho's chances of living a
long and happy life are slim.-Las

Law That Should Be Amended

One Of the things the next Lsgisla-
ture should do, and do it quickly, is to
amend the present law requiring that
all corporations doing business in Ne
vada shall annually publish in some
daily paper Of the State a statement of
their operations for the preceding year.
There is no more reason for the publ
cation of these statements in a daily
newspaper than there is for the publ
cation of other legal notices in daily
newspapers solely. And the discrimi-
nation against the weekly papers is un-
fair and unjust. Evidently the law
was suggested by a man in the daily
newspaper Observation-Disclosures Post.

WILLIAM {. JOHNSON

This community was shocked
Sunday evening to learn that
William f. Johnson, a prominent
farmer of North Fork. had passed
away at tn. 3 lag hospital. While
il was known that he was not well,
it was known only to few that he
was even at the hospital. He had
been in town for about two weeks
and seemed to be suffering from a
bad cold. From Mrs. johnson we
learn that he had been sick for a
month. He went to the Boiling
hospital Thursday or Friday of
last week. There he was treated
for inflammation of one Of his ears,
which Sunday morning developed
INTO cerebral meningitis, causing
his death. a
Mr.. Johnson was born in
Cheyenne, Wyoming, December Is,
1868, and was therefore in his 43rd
year. In 1870, the family settled
on North Fork, where the deceased
spent his life. In 1892, he was
married to Miss Della Rutherford,
who survives him. Two SONS

GENEROUS AMERICA

Six big disasters will occur in
the United States in 1911. This
is not the prediction of ar as
trolOger but of the American Red
Cross. the org anizatioD which con-
ducts a larger work of relief among
people stricken by great calamities
that any other agency in the world.
Experience has led the RedCross to
expect an average of five or six
serious disasters in this country
every year. 1t does MT know where
or When they will occur, or whether
they will be caused by storm or
fire or flood or earthquake" or
explosion. But it is sure that they
will happen. just as one may be
sure that fifteen persons of every
thousand now living will die in the
next twelve months.
World wide service to humanity
was shown by reports presented at
the recent national meeting of the
American Red Cross inIWasbington.
This organization. of which Presi.
dent Taft is the president, is
recognized by the federal govern
ment as the official channel for the
conduct Of relief work wherever
in the United States people suffer
from the results Of great calamities.
But the Red Cross does not confine
itself to relief operation in this
country. Its field is the world.
