JUDICIAL BRANCH OF GOVERNMENT.

Does the judicial branch of our state gov
eminent perform its functions, as provided by
the constitution and laws of the state?
Section H. of article g. of the constitution
of Nevada reads as follows ''The justices of
the supreme court and the district judges shall
be eligible to any office, other than a judicial
office, during the term for which they shall
have been elected and all other elections or APP
pontments of any such judges by the people,
legislature or otherwise, during said period, to
any office other than judicial, shall be void -
In the face of this constitutional provision
the legislature of this state made the justices
Of our supreme court code commissioners to
revise and compile the laws of the state, and
provided them with compensation for filling such
Offices Statutes 1907 Page 800 Our supreme
justices accepted these offices and since have
been filing the same in conjunction with the
Offices of justices of the supreme court. 1t is
alleged that the business of the supreme court
is about year behind and that branch Of our
state government is not fully performing its
functions.
Some time ago the district Judge of Esmer
aida county conceived the idea of having some
litigation, pending in his court, heard by three
judges, outside of his district, whereupon the
respective counsel to such litigation subscribed
to such procedure, and now three of our district
judges are engaged, while Nye county is
suffering for the want of judge, with many
cases that have been submitted for some time
undecided.

TO THE VICTOR BELONGS THE sPo1Ls.

A republican board is in control of the state
insane asylum at Reno but democrats are in
charge of the institution Dr. Gibson and his
assistant Ernest Bingham are holding down
jobs that they not entitled to. 1t is alleged
that Superintendent Gibson contributed 5000
to the Oddie campaign fund, while his assistant,
Bingham, pungled $3.50, to assist in the defeat
of Dickerson for governor. Tt matters not
whether the contributions were made but to
the "victor belongs the spoils,'' and the APP
pointive board being composed of Governor
eddie, State Treasurer Mcmillan and State
Controller Egers, all republicans they must
appoint a republican superintendent and assist
ant of the state insane asylum.
Mr.. Mcmillan. an honorable and very loyal
republican, is willing to cast his vote for a
grand old party man, but Odde and Egers
prefer democrat by the name of Gibson to
handle the throttle at the state institution If
Gibson and Bingham not removed it will
look to the man up tree that they did
subscribe to the Oddie campaign fund.- and for
purpose-none other than holding down Jobs

many of these will find accommoda-

fact the fishing is best during Al

lower and conditions altogether pleas

Clyde Liner Apache Has A Very
Close Call.

Charleston. S. c., Aug. 31.-Plung-
ing towards apparent certain destruc-
ton on the beach of Hunting island
in the midst of the hurrican that
swept the Carolina coast on Sunday
night and Monday the Clyde liner
Apache, with 125 passengers aboard
was saved in the nick of time by a
sudden change in the wind and came
into Charleston harbor this morning
badly racked by wind and sec, but
not seriously damaged. For q tense
five minutes the passengers of the
Apache stood on the lower deck with
life preservers around their bodies
waiting for the vessel to strike and
determined to make as stout fight
as they could for their lives.
Driven along by q wind the speed
of which was estimated by Capt.
William Staples of the liner at 100
miles IN hour, the big steamer found
herself helpless at about 1:30 o'clock
on Monday afternoon. She was bound
south from New York and haS been
blown past the mouth of the hsrbor
to a point off Hunting island The
gale swept her inshore and it force
prove irresistible. Full speed ahead
into the teeth of the storm could not
drive the liner forward and when
two anchors were put overheard the
chains snapped like cords. Helpless
| in the grasp Of the hurricane the
ship was being literally hurled to
| wards the Hunting island breakers
and the passengers with life pre-
servers on, hand well night given uT
hope when suddenly the wind shifted
and the vessel was saved.
| Captain Staples told a vivid story
| 'From terrible wind (which
threatened momentarily our destruc

as ever nature made. But the calm
lasted only a few minutes. Twenty
minutes later the wind struck us
with greater force than ever and the
barometer began falling. The wine
