CENSUS BUREAU GIVES
EARLY NEVADA HISTORY

In bulletin recently issued by
the Census Bureau some interest
ing facts are given out by the
Census Director. In speaking Of
the history of Nevada, the bulletin
in note, says that Nevada is a
Spanish word, signfying snowclad
or white. as snow. The first white
man who ever came to Nevada was
probably Frances Cares, q Franci-
can friar, who passed through
southern Nevada in 1875 on his way
to Sonora, Cal. Other friars fol-
lowed him, but no settlements
wer made at that time.
In 1925 the Humboldt river
was dicovered by Peter S. Ogden
of the Hudson Bay company and
in 1889 trading post was
established at Genoa. Although
settlements grew up in Nevada at
that time, there was never much
of q population until the discovery
of the Comstock lode in 1859.

THEY SPRUNG SOMETHING NEW

A criminal, who murdered a
woman in cold blood in Illinois,
was found guilty by a jury, which
recommended life imprisonment,
with the stipulation that on each
anniversary of his crime the con
victed fellon should be placed in
dungeon and fed on bread and
water. The jury also ATTEMPTED tn
muzzle the board Of pardons by
declaring that the verdict should
be immune from interference and
at same time stating that hanging
was too good for a,crimial of hii
disposition. The court, however,
could not see its way clear to &C.
cepting such verdict, and
directed the jurors to bring in 4
new one.

THE HAT PIN Law

The ladies Of Elko should look
we'll to the length of their hat pins
or the officers of the law may get
them. For their benet we publish
tie following from the Tonopah
Bonanza:
The law passed by the last legis-
latUre J of this state makingait a
misdemeanor for a person to wear
a hat pin, TIE point protruding
over half inch beyond the crown
of hat, is now upon the statutes
of Nevada. Should you disohey
this law and be arrested, you may
be sentenced in the county Jail for
a term of six long. dreary months.
or may pay fine of $500, or the
cruel judge may impose both fine
and Imprisonment SO it behooves
the ladies to "look little out" e
The new law reads as follows:
No person shall, while upon
any public street or in any public
conveyance, street car, train or
elevator, or in any other public
place, wear hat pin or similar
article, the exposed point Of which
shall protrude more than one-half
inch beyond the crown or other
portion of the hat upon, in or
through which such pin or similar
article is worn, unless said exposed
point Of the hat pin or other
similar article ahall be so guarded
by device or otherwise us to
render contact with it entirely
free from danger Any person
violating any of the provisions of
this act is guilty of mis-
demeanor."
The act. however, does not apply
to the wearing of long hat pins
at social gatherings, pink teas, at
homes or private functions, and
will be enforced only when ladies
venture on the public streets or
street cars or other public places.
A similar law has been passed in
number Of the large eastern
cities, and it has been vigorously
enforced. In many of the larger
cities serious accidents have re-
suited from the sharp pointed
hat pins which were allowed to
protrude to the extent of several
inches from the hat crown, and in
numerous cases the loss of an eye
has been reported.

VAST sum SECURED ON
FORGED PAPER DURING YEAR

ALBERT S. Osborn, author Of
Questioned Documnts," and an
authority on the subject, declares
that the forgery loss in this
country for the year 1911 is fully
fifteen million dollars" writes
Frank Marshall White in the
Munsey for January. In an
article, "The Day of TIE Forger."
the writer quotes Osborn as say
ing "Clever penmen are leaving
trails of bad checks reaching from
Portland, Maine, to Portland,
Oregon. Banks and hotels are
naturally the shining marks of the
forger; but nearly, if not quite,
as much money is paid out on
forgeries by individuals, small
storekeepers and business houses
as by all Ithe banks and hotels
combined. A large proportion,
especially of the unreported
forgeries. is in amounts Of less
than a hundred dollars. If the
forger of a small check has
vanished, and only a doubtful clue
remains, the natural impulse is not
to send good money after bad
In most cases, nothing is done,
and the criminal goes on his way
unhampered and unafraid. Banks
naturally do not care to have it
known that they pay out custom
ers' money on forged paper, ard
if the forger is gone they are not
inclined to take much trouble to
find him."

Great SAVING Of lime.

The manager Of one of the electric
light companies Of the western part
OF the country has greatly facilitated
the business of making the lAa,nthly
readings Of meters by having these
instruments placed on the rear
porches Of houses instead OF in the
cellars. About ha.f Of the meters OF
this company are now located in some
convenient and protected place IN the
rear Of the house, where II Is always
accessible without regard to the pres.
ence or absence Of the inmates OF the
house. The result Is that the average
time formerly consumed by the In.
spector has been cat about In half.

FREQ HESS

the stories that have been sent
from here about Fred Hess are
most outrag eous. He i S pictured
as an outlaw. hunted By officers
through the mountains, and finally
captured half frozen in an Indian
camp. All Of which is nothing
more nor less than malicious lie,
In conversation with Sheriff
Harris this forenoon regard .ng
these stories he spoke with consid-
cradle feeling and denounced them
as a gross outrage.
We do not know Mr.. Hess nor
any of the parties directl, connect
ed with the affair at the Red
House. Hess may be a very bad
man In the eyes of those who made
the charge against him, but from
what we can learn Of him from
Sheriff Harris HI has heretofore
been a quiet, peaceful, law-abiding
citizen. II the whiskey- he drank
that night in drunken orgy made
him commit an offcnse against the
law, he should be given a fair trial
and If convicted he will doubtless
recei We the punishment the offense
merits.
Although he is reported to be a
blood thirsty outlaw, he has not
been manacled and locked up in
the Carlin Jail but has his liberty
in charge Of Constable Happier.
Rather a queer proceeding for
an officer to take with q hunted
outlaw.

An.impirtant point in connection
with the Presidents message on
the wooden schedule escaped atten-
ton. 1t is this: Mr.. Taft is Civ
ing the people discourse on wool
instead Of cheaper woolens. Wheth-
er the Presidents m, ssage, which
doesn't tell Congress any more
about the difference in the cost of
production at home and abroad
than it knew before, will be &C.
cepted by the. country as satisfac
tory substitute for cheaper and
better clothing, which he promised
in his, pre- election speeches and
was in position to give, but fatty
refused by vetoing the Underwood
La Toilette wool bill, remains to- be
seen. Here are some facts that
will aid the reader to reach con-
cluslon as tn whether the Prosi.
dent is now, ever was, or ever will
be, in good faith with the publ.
when it comes to interfering with
the profits of the tariff trust which
makes big campaign contributions
to the Republican party: When the
Payne-Aldrich bill was passed Mr.
Taft said the wooden schedule of
that measure was "indefnsible"snd
that he would like to see it revised
and revised downward. At the ex-
ira session of Congress democrats
and progressive republicans pa ssed
a Dill reducing the abnormaly-hfph
tax on woolens in a sincere and
patriotic attempt to tighten the
burden of taxation to the users of
woolcns. Had the President sign
ed this bill it would have meant a
reduction this winter in the price
of WOODEN clothing OF all sorts for
men. women and children; also in
the prices of blankets and other
forms of wooden manufactures
needed for warmth by the general
public.
But the President vetoed this bill
affording the very kind of relief
he had declared to be in sympathy
with forcing the American people
to continue to pay a subsidy in ar
tifical price to the wool industry
approximately$1O0. 900, 900 a year.
IL must vteo this bill, +" declared
the president, but after the tariff
board reveals the difference in the
cost uf production at home and
abroad will favor downward re-
vision of the wool schedule
This report is now in, has been
read and analysed, and found to
contain practically nothing.more on
the subject of difference in the cost
of production at home and abroad
than the Democratic Ways and
Means Committee was in possession
of when it framed the Underwood
bill. The joke is no won the public
again. The people asked for cheap
er and better clothing, and all they
get, so IA" as Mr. Taft is concerned
is a nicely worded but useless mes
sage; words as a substitute for re
lie from the extortionate price ex.
acted by the tariff trusts !-San
