That 300 Yard Law

Carson News Dec 80: Yesterday
afternoon the Supreme Court handed
down a decision in the habeas corpus
case OF All Pah, the Reno Chinaman
who was arrested last May for operating
houses Of i'll fame within 800 yards OF a
school house. The decision was written
b. Chief Justice Sweeney and CONQUERED
in by the other justices.
The decision holds that the law was
a good one and that the Chinaman had
committed a crime and as such must
pay the penalty Of the law. The de-
cision claims that the Legislature has
the right TO regulate houses Of prosti.
tuition and the Legislature in passing the
law made il mandatory on the officials
to enforce it.
The Court further holds that the new
Grimes and Punishment Act supersedes
the 600.yard law and reduces the dis.
tance to 400 yards. This law goes into
effect on the first day Of January, 1912,
aud will have the effect of opening up
the houses that were closed under the

Plans Worthy of the Observance OF
Such An Event Being Planned

The announcement of the prelimin
airy plans for a fitting celebration in
1920 of the tercentenary of the landing
of the Pilgrims is a reminder that an
other important anniversary will fall
that same year, in the celebration of
which at least two New England states
will be vitality interested.
On that year Maine will pass it's
Tooth milestone as State and for a
year or two plans have been making,
under the direction of the State His
torical society and the State board of
trade, for an observance worthy of
the anniversary. The plans include
not only the celebration itself, but al
so certain work for the general well
fare of the State which is to be carried
on to completion before 1920.
