RfDL|CHT RESORTS
TO CLOSE OR MOVE

About the first of May Shriff Lamb
notified the keepers of resorts in the
redlight district that they were con-
ducting their places contrary to law,
for the reason that they were within
the S00-yard limit of a church or
schoolhouse, and gave them 80 days to
find and remove to new quarters.
So far as known, there has been no
move made by the denizens of the dis
trict to find or build new quarters out
side of the dead line. This is no doubt
due to the fact that controversy has
arisen in Reno and other towns regard
ing the constitutionality of the law,
and the interested parties here are
probably waiting to see how their con-
temporaries in other localities will
come out.
But this will avail them naught, for
the local authorities are showing a
determination to enforce the law as it
stands on the statutes, without waiting
for any ruling by the courts. Yesterday
Deputy Sheriff Muller served written
notice on the owners of the buildings,
forbidding them to rent their places
for immoral purposes for the month Of
June. District Attorney Callahan,
when asked today what action he
should take in the premises, replied:
"Sheriff Lamb is the executive off,
Ger of the county, and it rests with
him to arrest these people, if they vio-
late the law. All l can say is that this
office will prosecute any such arrested
parties to the full extent of the law :
Sheriff Lamb could not be seen to.
day, as he is absent in Carson City on
official business, expected home to.
night. However, from the action of
Deputy Sheriff Muller yesterday, it is
the reasonable conclusion that the
keepers of the resorts in the redlight
district must either move, close theil
houses or stand for a vigorous prose
cution.

BUTLER STILL SHFR-
|FF OF WHITE PINE

l.. F. Adamson, state bullion tax
collector, who is in town today, reports
rather peculiar condition existing az
Ely. The bondsmen of AL Butler, the
alleged defaulting sheriff of White
Pine county, refuse to withdraw from
his official bond, with the result that he
is still sheriff and will remain in Office
until convicted of a felony. Under
Sheriff Fulmer is in charge of the Of
fee, which is running along as usual.
Monday morning Mr.. Adamson ap-
peared before the White Pine county
grand jury and reported that Butler
owed the state the sum of 50 ,468.65 for
licenses collected, and asked for an in
dictment. 1t is probable that by this
time three indictmnts have been re-
turned against the missing sheriff, one
on accoant of the state and two for the
county. As Buffers bondsmen are all
good, the state will have no difficulty
in collecting the money due.
Asked as to the conditions locally in
the matter of license and bullion tax
collections, Mr.. Adamson replied:
81 have found everything here in
Humboldt county in strictly first-class
condition. Last quarter, owing to a
misunderstanding, there was a little
friction regarding bullion tax collec-
tions, but this has all been satisfac-
torily adjusted.
II wish to state to the public that
in SO far, at least, as the collection of
licenses and bullion taxes are con-
cerned, the offices of Sheriff Lamb and
Assessor Leonard are excelled by
none in the state.''
Mr.. Adamson will leave for Carson
City on No. 3 this evening.

JOURNALS COMMENT ON
1.-THE OLD HOMESTEAD

There are some plays that never
grow old. 1t doesn t matter whether
you have seen the "Old Homestead -
a dozen times, it is worth seeing again.
The lesson it teaches applies today as
it did a score of years ago. One can
not tire of the simple, honest country
folk whose hearts are as big as
squashes and one cannot help but con-
trast them with the people of the
cities.
1t would be useless to tell the story
of the "Old Homestead" again. But
the tears instinctively come to one 8
eyes as the tale is unfolded and the
father finds his son in New York a
drunkard.
The most pathetic scene that could
be imagined is enacted in front of
Grace church as the drunkard reels
into the arms of his father and the
old man puts his arms around him,
strokes his face and tenderly holds
him to his heart.
1t is worth seein~ again and again
and many there were in the audience
at the Majestic theater last evening
fore, who asserted they enjoyed as
HlucH ldst HlSnt de tHey ever Hdu
Take the boy tonight and let him
see it. Then talk to him afterwards
and explain it and let it sink deep in
to his heart. You couldn't steel your
heart against the lesson it teaches no
matter how you might try. 1t is a sim
pie plot, vividlv told. The humor is
good 1t has withstood the test of time
and is still strong enough to draw a
smile and laugh from those who have
seen and heard it many times.
The company is good, William
Lawrence, who takes the part of
Joshua Whitcomb, is excellent. All the
other characters are good. There is
sorrow, joy and tragedy depicted in
the four acts. But this is not intended
as criticism, for the "Old Home
stead' is above criticism. 1t will be
repeated this evening.-Reno Journal

sented at the Nixon opera house thi.

NATIONAL WANTS
OUT OF RESERVE

Ever since the establishment of the
Santa Rosa forest reserve, a move
ment has been on foot to have National
eliminated from the reservation. Last
night largely attended mass meeting
was held in the camp, when it was vot-
ed to be the sense of those present that
the territory embraced by Charleston,
Auto and Radiator hills should be tax
en- from the jurisdiction of the re-
serve. Committees were appointed to
confer with Senator Nixon and Rep.
resentative Roberts to that end.

not The views of the gentleman
from Michigan (Mr. Wedemeyer) and
the gentleman from Kansas (Mr.
Young) are, to my way of thinking,
the most in harmony with the inten-
tion of the trainers of the constitu-
tion of the United States.
Many able and convincing argu-
ments, pro and con, have been deliver.
ed in this house on the question of the
soundness of the recall proposition
when applied to the Judiciary, but /
am unwilling to take the stand that
this congress should invade the prov.
ince of the electors of Arizona or any
other territory and dictate to them
the tenure of their judicial offices and
the manner in which judicial officers
or any other officers may be removed
from Office as a condition precedent to
their admission into the union. That
is right inherent in themselves.
1t is right guaranteed the people
ny dfllCltS anu n VI tHc coHStitu-
tion of the United States. Article TX
reads as follows:
"The enumeration in the constitu
tion of certain rights shall not be con
strued to deny or disparage others re
tanned by the people,
Article X reads
"The powers not delegated to {
United States by the constitution. u
prohibited by it to the states. are re
served to the states respectively or to
he people.
Ny reasoning leads me then to this
conclusion. That the power of con-
gress to dictate to the people of a state
the manner in which they shall elect
and maintain their judiciary and the
only manner in which they may be re
moved, is not and never was delegated
to the United States, and is not and
never was prohibited by it to the
states themselves.
II must then, be a power reserved
to the states respectively or to the
people.

Increasing Force at Sparks shops.


The night force of car inspectors on
duty at the Sparks depot has been in.
creased to twenty men and it is under
stood that an additional increase will
be made shortly. The extra men were
needed on account of the additional
traffic.
An order was recently received by
the ear department at the railroad
town to start work Immediately ON out
fit cars as they will be used in the
double tracking of the main line.
There are about rs outfit cars at
Sparks and each will be thoroughly
overhauled and an effort will be made
to have them ready to be placed in
commission within the next month.
Five work trains are expected to be
placed in service some time before
the 18th of June, which means the
additional employment of a large
crew of men. The new gangs w..
probably number more than 200 men
and will have their headquarters at
Sparks.
1t is understood in railroad circles
that the engines running on the divis-
ion between Carlin and Ogden will be
converted from coal to oil burners.
This work will be carried out at the
Sparks shops.
1t is probable that the forces in the
different departments will be in
creased to handle the extra work and
the employment of additional en-
ployes will mean a great deal to the
prosperity of Sparks and vicinity
