A JOB FOR LEGISLATORS.

Several of the Pacific Coast States have adopted
rigid quarantine laws against alfalfa from Utha and
other States that are know to have some of their ao
rcultural sections infested with alfalfa weevi1 1t
is a good plan, and the incoming Legislature Of Me-
vada should get busy Immediately upon converting
and pass strict quarantine law for this State so
that there may be danger from this parasite in
splendid alfalfa sections The alfalfa weevil is a
serious evil, and should it get foothold in Nevada
it would ruin thousands of dollars worth of property
and cost much to get rid Of There is danger from
hay passing through State, even, and contract
ors on large projects, such the Fernley-I assen
railroad, not particular about where they get
their hay SO long as the price suits them
The weevil could easily be distributed large
part OF the State by being brought in from Utah or
other contaminated sections in carload lots of hay
to be used by such contractors. The matter is OF
great Importance to Nevada. She has the reputation
of producing the best alfalfa on the coast and
ought not to lose that reputation, be subjected
to the loss that would occur if the parasite became
scattered in the midst of her alfalfa fields. The
Legislature can do much to obviate this evil bv in
vestigating all conditions and then passing law
to keep hay from coming into Nevada from weev-
infected districts OF other States.

THE DOVE OF PEACE.

During the past few months great many Day
ton and Silver City people have visited Yerington
large number of them for the first time. and in but
Jew instances they not pleased with the little
city. recognizing that it is the logical place in the
county for the location of the county seat. Those
who are just also believe in our new courthouse
the county has received the worth of the money
pended to it. The visitors on business pleas
urc. have been extended every courtesy by the
dents OF Ierngton. and from all indications they
begin to feel that not such fierce set OF peo
pie after all and that should occasion arise whereby
they needed our assistance in any for the good
OF the whole county, they could count our friend
ship and assistance
1t is true that some very bitter feeling was
2endered by the removal of the courthouse from
Dayton to Iernston. but much OF this is passing
away and the friendships that were severed in that
scrimmase again being cemented together.
This is as it should be. Lyon county is forging
to the front one of the wealthy counties of the
State She will continue grow from and
will make rapid strides in the way Of advancement
She contains. only in Mason and Smith valleys
but on the Carson river and in the northern section
OF Truckee- Carson irrigation project quantity
OF as fine agricultural land can be found in any
county. or any State. New homeseekers are coming
amongst and building thereby increasing the
amount OF taxable property within our boundaries.
Furthermore. Lyons mining resources are being
exploited to degree where that industry is advanc
ing rapidly and adding much property to our
assessment roll. In few years there will be no
county in the State more prosperous than Lyon and
the condition will exist just long her people
are harmonious and all join hands work for the
common good and the upbuildng OF the county.
The Times is pleased @ note the CHANGE OF feel
ing in regard to this matter and hopes that it may;
continue to grow so that there NAV be no enenitv
between any OF our towns communities.

ATTORNEYS GET THEIRS.

Commenting on the recent allowance for attor
,eys fees made by Judge Langan in the case OF tn
State Bank and Trust Company, the Tonopah Bo
,anza said:
The neat little sum of $4,000 has been al
lowed the attorneys for the receiver OF the long
defunct State Bank and Trust Company. OF
this anout Sl2,500 was drawn down some time
ago Tor various expenses, w,,.lc the remaining
SlL50O was allowed Saturday by Judge Lam
gan of the Carson district court Two outside
attorneys appeared in court and declared that
the fee demanded was reasonable
The greater part OF this $4,000 could have
just as well been given to the unfortunate de-
positors of the defunct institution had Receiver
Wildes desired However, Wildes had no de-
sire to protect the depositors and continued to
contract the bills with the attorneys in question:
Reno firm, of which member sought the
Democratic nomination for the office OF Justice
OF the Supreme Court and was defeated at the
recent primaries.
~ Two years ago the Legislature enacted
bill making the Bank Examiner the receiver of
defunct banking institutions. Wildes attacked
the constitutionality of the law and the Supreme
Court decided in favor if Wildes by declaring
that the law not constitutional. When
asked to reopen the case the honered court en-
phatically reued. and whatever other evidence
that had been procured was not presented.
This measure declared unconstitutional had it
been allowed to remain on the statutes of Ne
vada, would have resulted in the Attorney
General and the various district attorneys act
ing on behalf of the Bank Examiner without
compensation. Thusly there would have been
no fabulous sums paid out by receiver for at
torney's fees and practically every cent received
would have been turned over to the dpositors.
The prncely salary Of the receiver would also
have been avoided, would that of cashier"
Of defunct bank
The Office of receiver of the State Bank and
Trust Company pays a better salary than that
received by the Governor of Nevada, and it is
not to be wondered at that private interests
were considered by all concerned before the
demands OF the State were given consideration.
From what can be learned it is believed
That the recall has been adopted by the voters
this State at the recent general election, and
with this measure on the statutes, bettre service
can now be expected in all quarters.

RAISE HARE.

Did you stop to think that you might re-
duce the cost of living so far your meat bill is
concerned by raising few Belgian hare for your
own consumption. Hare, cooked in many differ
ent ways makes delicious meat food OF course
person soon would get tired OF continuous diet
OF hare, but meal two three times week would
not be bad 1t takes very little to raise these ami
mails and any family could easily keep few rabbits
for table use. They breed rapidly and mature to a
fine eating size in few weeks. Persons who cannot
afford to eat beef the prevailing high price ought
to raise few hare, some chickens and squads and
they would find the meat bills cut down materially
