In a signed communication to the
Reno Journal. ]. Holman Buck. of
the Western Nevada Miner, suggests
and asks that the date be set ahead
to Monday, the 18th, SO as to give
the proprietors of weekly papers an
opportunity to be present. Mr..
Buck says that the weekly papers are
deeply interested and states that
their day Of publication is usually or
generally throughout the state on
Friday or Saturday and that the date
Of the 18th would interfere with their
business and prevent their being
present.
1t is not toe late to again change
the date and surely the weekly pa
pers have a right to be in on the
organization.

Combination Metal Nests,

this is certainly not possible. The
only chance of infection is from the
bird itself to the nesting material,
which is Of minor consequence, unless
a lousy hen happens to precede a
clean one in occupying the nest.
Metal nests come in several pat.
terms. One style is for hanging on
the wall, from which it can be easily
removed and cleaned. Others are
made in combination as shown in the
illustration, also in singles and in
pairs and trios. For shipping they
are knocked down; their construction
is such that no rivets or solder is re-
CURED to set them up ready for use.
Galvanized iron coops have long
been feature Of eastern and Euro
pean shows, and we can see no rea-
son why metal houses will not prove
equally desirable. Where tried,
breeders claim them a success.

EXCELLENT NESTS FOR HENS
Those Made Of Metal Have Much to
Commend Them on Ground Of
Cleanliness and Sanitation.

The use of metal and concrete in
the construction of all kinds of build.
ings is gaining rapidly in popularity.
We see 1t not only in our houses, but
in the modern dairy barns and poultry
plants. This is brought about on
grounds of economy and efficiency:
metal Is stronger, wears longer, oc-
cupies less space, is immune to fire
and inimical to insect life and dis
ease. For the latter reason its use
appeals strongly to the poultry breed
er. Metal perches, nests, and even
houses have much to commend them
on grounds of cleanliness and good
sanitation. Especially Is this true of
metal nests, row of which is shown
in the illustration. OF all contrivan-
ces the wooden box has proved itself
the home of lice and mites; its crew.
Ices and cracks are the delight Of
these pestiferious enemies of fowl life.
To be sure the nesting material can
be changed and burned, the box
sprayed or fumigated, but in spite of
all precaution few stray specimens
will escape in some crack or crevice
in the wood. With the metal nest

Denies Categorically the References Made to Him in Affidavit Read By

John w. Altman. register in chancery, whose attention was last night called to the affidavit of c. ". Austin, read by Col. P. G. Bowman at the Jefferson the- atre, issued the following statement
 'The statement made by MT. Austin in his affidavit to the effect that said to him that had been requested to collect from saloonkeepers fund which the governor had demanded-and that l had collected such sum-and after I had collected this money Governor O'Neal re- quested me to turn over the money to him, which I refused to do, Is without even the semblance of truth
 From before the adjournment of the legislature up to the day of the appoint ment of Judge Samuel Greene, a period of some months, I had neither seen nor communicated with Governor O'Neal.
 NO statement approaching that was made, nothing in substance to that was said, nothing akin to that was even in timated The entire fabric is a product of MT. Austin's magination-and that Is putting it mildly"

Murder Is Murder" He Says in an Outlook
 Editorial
PLEA FOR SYMPATHY
 SIMPLY INDUSTRIOUS
Labor Leaders Who By Their Loud Championship of McNamaras Have Identified Them With the
 Cause of Labor

New York, December 15.-Theodore Roosevelt has an editorial article in the current issue of the Outlook re- lating to the McNamara case, entitled Murder Is Murder" The article says:
 Not only laboring men, but business men, capitalists, have at times shown the worst form of class conscious ness-that of sinister and brutal class selfishness in standing by criminals simply because they were of their own class This has been done by capital ists In the case of capitalists who have been guilty of brazen corruption, and by laborers in the case of labor lead CTS who have been guilty of murder ous violence. The two offenses stand on a par from the standpoint of dam- ago to the community. In San Fran cisco in one municipal contest the cap italists who desired to be free from all check on corruption and the labor leaders who desired to be free from all check on lawless violence, struck hands and elected their ticket and this proved in the end to be a lasting mis- fortune to San Francisco, to the cause of honest business, and to the cause of honest labor.
