The Pioche record. [volume] (Pioche, Nev.) 1908-1925, 1912-04-06

Il Sheriff Smith had had his way,
the Record would not have been is
sued last week, nor this week. AL
though this official has done appar-
emily all in his power to make mat
tiers as unpleasant for the editor OF
this paper during the time The lat
ter was in quarantine; nevertheless,
we have managed, under great stress,
to get the paper out and with only
slight delays.
1t was represented to Sheriff
Smith. who is the quarantine officer
when the Record editor was taken
i'll with what was pronounced small
poX that in order to protect certain
legal advertising then running, tina,
the paper must be -issued-otherwist
the Record would not only suffer con
siderable pecuniary loss, but thai
the advertisers would BE- put to ne
small amount Of annoyance.
There being but one person in Pt
oche al the time competent to operat
our linotype machine. the sheriff wa.
requested to see this party and en-
deavor TO secure his services. 1t was
suggested to the officer that as al
extra precautionary measure, that thu
interior of the Record building coult
be thoroughly fumigated before any
one went to work there thus re
moving every possibility of DANCE
from the spread of disease germ
from this source We obtained III
satisfaction from the officer on thi
score; ct he did promise to go an
interview the lnotypist for us an
that he would return later and re
port But the sheriff never cam
hack, nor did he perform one singl
act which would tend to give us al
sis'ance ii a moment of distress. W
were completely ignored from thu
time on aud neither the sheriff, {
any member of his official stat
made inquiry if the inmates of II
Quarantined home were in need
anything.
