Exact laboratory experiments have
determined that alcohol acts as an
anaesthetic upon the higher brain cells
that preside over the more complex
mental processes. In other words. the
man who wakes up under the influ-
ence of alcohol is really going to sleep,
so far as the more useful part of the
brain is concerned. and thus the lower
and simpler mental processes come
more into evidence. -Analyze the con-

Something might be said for alcohol
as an agent for suppressing that part
of the brain which is overwOrked in
the daily struggle for existence and
thereby affording opportunity for the
nervous balance to be restored by eXer-
else of the simpler faculties.
That some. influence is necessary to
preserve proper nervous and mental

pressed by the constant exercise of the
higher reasoning powers. But is it nee
essary TO employ poisonous drug for
such purpose? 1t would appear not.

small quantities was utilized by the
body as a food. 1t has long been
known that alcohol is burned in the
body with the production of energy.

states. human flesh is digestible and

drinkers. but those whose habits show
a trend in this direction. They are TAX

The most comprehensive experience
that has been published is that of the
United Kingdom Temperance and Gen

company the total abstainers were sep

ASSESSORS HOLD

meetings of the state board of reve-

GOV. OICKERSON
IS A PURIFIER

According to the following from
the San Francisco Call, Ex-Governor
Dickerson is to return to Nevada as
the great purifier. He did a little
purifying if we remember right last
July in Reno when he assisted in
the booming of the great fight
fiasco:
"OAKLAND, Jan. 5.-Former
Governor ID. S. Dickerson of Ne
vada, who is staying in 4O91 Howe
street, Oakland, will take a vigor-
GUS part in the fight for a better
vorce law in his state when he re-
Turns there. He intends tn-Femaia
in Oakland for few days more be-
fore going back to Nevada. He
holds no official position in the
state, but will be in close touch
with the legislature during its pres
ent session.
The fight will be directed chiefly
to an amendment of the law so that
it will be necessary for a person to
live in the state year before filing
suit for divorce. At present, six
months residence in the state is
sufficient, and Nevada, the only
state in the union so easy for di-
vorce aspirants, is consequently the
mecca for those who want separa-
tions.
Former Governor Dickerson was
not backward in expressing himself
about the Reno lawyers and others,
whose influence has prevented a
change in the law heretofore.
The law as it is is burning
shame he said; it should have been
changed long ago, and would have
been if the people of the state had
their way. Public sentiment through
out Nevada is very much opposed to
the law that makes divorce easy
and that has disgraced the state
throughout the country. 1t is only
in Reno, which makes money out of
the divorce colony, that there is any
sentiment in favor of the present
law. Lawyers there want it to be
as it is, of course. At the last ses-
sion of the legislature a bill max
ing a years residence necessary
was introduced and passed the low
er house. 1t was killed in the SEN
ate by Reno lawyers influence. In
fact, an attorney who was senator
from Washoe county was largely
instrumental in killing the bill.
This time we are going to make an
other effort, and we are going to
fight it through

JURORS NAMES
ARE DRAWN BY
COUNTY DADS
COMMISSIONERS DRAW -FOUR
AND FIFTY NAMES TO CON.
STITUE NEXT PANEL.

Last evening the board of county
commissioners concluded the lengthy
task of drawing 45O names that
will constitute the next jury panel
for this year. The names, were
aiken from the list of registered
voters for the different precincts in
Nye county and it has been a
rather tiresome task. The duty of
drawing the panel started about a
week ago and at odd moments the
work has progressed. While the
majority of the jurymen are taken
from Tonopah, a fair representation
is made by the outside camps.
At the present time there are no
cases demanding a jury trial on the
docket in the district court, but as
soon as the grand jury conyenes,
there is probability that several
juries will be demanded The grand
jury will be named before long by
the district attorney and district
