ARGUMENT IN THE
HUSTON CASE BEGUN

A Grant Miller, accompanied by
his wife, was down from Reno Sun
day and Monday of last week. Mr..
Miller has been retained as coun-
sci for d. p. Huston, indicted on
a charge of violating the anti-gam-
bling law. Attorney Miller con-
tends that the statute creates a
felony out Of that which was no
offense at all under the common
law, and that, while a statute MAX
ing an act a misdemeanor is to be
Iiberally construed, the Nevada stat
ute which creates felony must be
strictly construed, and inasmuch as
the game of seven-up is not stated
in the statute it cannot be brought
within the statute under strict con-
struction thereof. Judge French has
taken the matter under advisement

SMALL BOY USES WORD
HE THOUGHT SWEARING

There are many belated stories
going the rounds, which grew out
of the Roosevelt day celebration in
Reno, but too many of them have
heartburnings for their theme, and
consequently are barred from the
public press. But there is one that
might be told
1t was while the barbecue was
in progress. The colonel was serv-
ing big chunks of meat with both
hands, while the crowd pushed,
pulled and hauled, anxious to have
the honor of being helped in per-
son by the Strenuous One.
In the melee two lads suddenly
came together One was a little
larger than the other, but the other
was game. The larger was the
son of a well-known woman who
has been prominent in the fight fol-
votes for women. The big lac
gave the smaller a tug and a push
The little fellows eyes flashed anC
his fists doubled
You lookout. you, youth,
thought hard for an expression tha
would adequately show his hate ant
contempt. "You look out, YOU Sol
of a Suffragette, or I'll knock you
block Off"
y And under the whitening blast o
that tremendous epithet, the large
hoy ceased from troubling and los
himself in the crowd.

ever, was not unexpected, as Sen
ator Nixon stated to a party Of
friends at dinner in Fallon dur
ing the campaign that he expected
to get an appropriation during his
term, if elected, for postoffice build
ings in the above-named towns. They
were mentioned in preference to the
larger and more populous mining
camps, because of the agricultural
interests back of them, which gives
assurance of permanency
If these bills pass, and they most
likely will, Fallon will likely have
$l2,250 for a federal building;
which would make a nice improve
ment for this substantial and grow
ing town. The people of Fallon
will most assuredly appreciate the
