Warehouse Plans
Made for Georgia.
Leading Officials of Farm
ers' Union Gather in
Atlanta.

Atlanta Georgia-At confer
ence held in Atlanta by leading
officials of the Farmers Union and
Il. r. Hightower, of Mississippi,
plans we're formulated to actively
inaugurate the work of the Ma
tional Warehouse Company in
Georgia. 1t is expected that the
company will have the organiza-
ton in this state sufficiently per-
fected to begin business at the
opening of the cotton season.
The National Warehouse Com
pany is the outgrowth of several
wal ehouse movements in the cot
ton states during the past few
years and particularly the farm
ers' warehouse system which for
three years has been operated so
successfully in Mississippi.
Agents of the company will
visit the cotton counties of the
state in the near future to lay its
merits before the farmers and
business men.
1t is believed that this system
when perfected and extended into
the several cotton states will solve
the cotton growers difficulty, both
in financing the crop and market
ing it direct to the consumers at
the least possible expense.

Who Changed Sabbath?
Evangelist Crisler Heard by
Large Congregation

Savannah June 17.-"To accuse
Jesus Christ as being the one wh"
ut aside or changed any o. the
Ten Commandments, is to accuse
Him of being fine man of SIN"
said Evangelist CrisIer last night
in his lecture on who Changed
the Sabbath"
There was a large crowd in the
Adventist Church. Thirty-seven-
tn and Jefferson streets. The
speaker led up to the kernel Of his
llecture by giving an exposition OF
the prophecy in Daniel Z. Texts
of Scripture and ancient history
we're used literally to prove that
these four beasts represented the
four great kingdoms of Babylon,
Medic, Persia, Grecia and Rome,
Stereopticon pictures of these four
$ttreat beasts were thrown upon the
screen as their rise and fall were
traced. The interest centeFed III

a2d a mouth speaking great
things The position was taken
that this fourth beast represented
Gle Roman Empire, which was
broken up into ten divisions be-
tween the years 351-483 A. d.
Mr.. Crisler said in part: BE
tween the years 351 -403 this little
horn power, "Having eyes like
&c ewes of a man and a mouth
speaking great things was seen
coming up. What power was
coming into prominence at that
times Only one fuItills the pro-
ph4cy and that was the rise OF
Catholicism, or the great ecclesIas-
tical kingdom of the Papacy' On

Papacy. These were the Herull'

"The Prophecy points out three
special characteristics of this power

speak great words against the
most High, and shall wear out the
Saints of the Most High. and think
to change times and laws The
special titles and privileges claim
ed by the ropes; the persecution
of Protestants during the Dark
Ages, and tampering with Gods
law, marks the Papacy as the
power referred to in the prophecy.

MANY CANDIDATES AFTER
ASSEMBLY SPEAKERSHIP

The speakership fight in the next
assembly promises to be the opening
feature of interest when the legisla-
ture convenes on January 90, month
hence, and it will be all the more
strenuous because there is certain
ty that the Democrats have wide
margin in both houses In the rivalry
many elements enter, but the fight
seems to be one involving the desire
of Democratic conuties for represen-
tation more than particular claims for
personal recognition.
Among those mentioned in the
race are w. J, Hunter of Esmeralda,
T. A. Brandon Of Humboldt, George
Cole of Manhattan, Judge Fitzgerald
of Eureka and w. NJ. Gardiner of
Reno.
The candidacy of George Cole was
early announced and his friends have
been active in canvassing the as
sembly- elect in his behalf. W. J.
Hunter has been proposed by the
entire Esmeralda delegation. which
is solidly Democratic and he has been
endorsed also by the Democratic or
ganization of that county T. A.
Brandon is a well known Democrat in
the northern end of the state and his
friends have been active in his behalf.
Judge Fitzgerald has been mentioned,
but has not been conducting any ac
tive campaign and the same is said
for w. NJ Gardiner.
There are four Democrats on the
Washoe delegation, but they have
not organized as yet to any extent.
The FIVE Republicans from Washoe
win keep them pretty busy on local

JUDGE ORR RE-
SIGNS FROM BENCH

With almost no intimation to the
members of the bar, and only the mer-
est hint to his closest friends Of his
intentions, Judge John S. Orr of the
Distrlct Court on Saturday announced
that ne would retire from the bench
az the beginning of the new year. two
years before his term of office expires.
Inc announcement was made dur-
In the morning session, when many
attorneys were present in court for
law and motion day. 1t created con-
siderable surprise and was Immediate
y followed by a movemnt to record
the sentiment of the bar of regret that
such decision had been taken.
Judge George s. Brown was present
N court at the time, and he addressed
the members of the bar and Judge
Orr, giving expression to the feeling
of regret produced. ATTORNEY w. nj.
Gardiner suggested that Judge Brown
preside over the impromptu meeting.
ana Judge Orr vacated the rostrum
until formal action could be taken.
0u the motion of Attorney Gardiner
that a committee of five be appointed
to draw up suitable resolutions, which
was seconded by Attorney Grant Mil
Ter, Judge Brown appointed ATTORNEYS
6ardiner, Harwood Gibbons, Parry
and Curler The resolutions will in
clude a history and appreciation Of
Judge Orr's service on the bench.
They will be prepared and formally
presented on next Saturday.
The announcement. of Judge Orr
was made with little preliminary.
stating that he had something to say
to the members of the bar, Judge Orr
went on to remark that he had deter
mined to retire from the bench on
January !, next He recalled the fact
that by that time he would have
served six years as a judge of the
District Court OF late, he said. he
found the work very confining and
exacting, affording little time for rec
reation or reeuperation. In the past
few months particularly, Judge Orr
SAID, the condition seemed to become
more burdensome, and he felt acutely
the need of rest
Judge Orr stated that he had not as
yet formally advised Governor Oddie
Of his resignation and that the field
was open for the application of any
lawyer to seek preferment in the sue
eessIon. Ton any such he rendered
wishes of success.
Speaking later, privately on the
subject, Judge Orr said that for sew
eral months he had felt the burdens
of his work keenly, and he was begin
ming to suffer from confinement more
and more. Accordingly, he concluded
to retire in the hope of securing a
rest, and later re-entering the private
practice of the law He stated that he
had not as yet sent written resigna-
tion to Governor Oddie, but that he
had definitely decided on the point. AS
to the possibility of taking a vacation
for a month or two and resuming the
bench, he said that this would not be
practicable, as the District Courts all
over the state seem to be very busy,
and besides, he felt that radical step
would be most likely to give him the
needed rest through change of work.

.FRONHOF[R FOUND
GUILTY BY JURY

At about 1880 this morning the
Jury in the Fronhofer case returned
the following verdict:
1--WE, the jury in the above entitled
action of State of Nevada, plaintiff,
vs.. George lIonhofer, defendant, do
find the defendant George Fronhofer.
guilty of murder of the first degree.
and hereby fix his punishment at i'm,
prisonment for life.
"ANDREW r. LAURITZEN.
Foreman -
The time for sentence was set for
Wednesday, January Is, at 10 O'Clock
a. m. At that time defendant 3
ant s counsel will argue a m lion for a
new trial.
The State rested its case at about
10 O'Clock yesterday morning, and
the defense also rested, without intro
ducing any testimony. Court then
took a recess until 1870 O'Clock in the
afternoon, when opposing counsel
summed up, taking the whole after.
noon and part of the evening. The
case was submitted to the jury at
about 1880 O'Clock last evening. 1t is
rumored that the first ballot stood six
to six.
The verdict came as great sur
prise to the general public, as the only
evidence against defendant was of
barely a circumstantial nature. The
ante mortem statement Of Laux and
his Identification Of Fronhofer as the
man who shot HIM had been ruled out.
for the reason that at the time il was
made Laux did not expect to die, and
for the further reason, as stated by
the Court. that having been shot from
behind it was impossible for Taux to
have known who shot him. The
only evidence remaining which tend
ed to connect him with the crime was
the Identification of hat. which
Fronhofer admitted belonged to him,
by Witness Lahigan as the hat worn
by the man who fred the shot which
killed Laux. Witness could not iden-
tify Fronhofer as the man who fred
the shot, as he did not see the man s
face, but saw the hat projecting from
behind the pile of rocks from which
the shot came, a distance OF 162 feet
from where he and Laux were stand
ing.
The murder of Peter Laux, for
which crime George FronhOfer stands
convicted. was committed at Il mine
about q mile from Kennedy on the 23d
Of last January. On the following day
officials from here visited the scene
of the crime and placed George From
hofer aud Jake Leiek under arrest and
brought Laux in 10 the county hospi-
tai
The grand jury then in session, in
dicted Fronhofer for assault with in
tent TO kill. but found no true bill
against Leick, who was discharged
from custody. Before Fronhofer could
BE brought to trial Laux died. when
the Indictment was dismissed and he
was Immediately rearrested on com
paint charging murder Upon appli-
cation, defendant was admitted 10
bail in the sum Of $4,000 and remained
At liberty until indicted by special
grand jury during the early part Of
November.
