SUPREME COURT
ORDER IN THE
BANK CASES
LANGAN WARNED THAT WRIT OF
PROHIBITION WILL ISSUE
IF HE ACTS.

CARSON CITY, Nov. 12.-After
hot and heavy debate between the at
torney general and Attorney George
Green for Judge Langan. the subject
of the petition of the attorney gen
eral asking that further examination
into the affairs of the State bank
be prohibited mtil final decision Of
the matter pending be filed by the
court was temporarily settled
The attorney general was asked by
the court if he desired to have a
temporary writ of prohibition granted
in the matter. To this the attorney
general replied that he did unless he
was shown that Judge LangaB would
not take any further action in the
case until the supreme court had
ruled upon the main question. Attor-
ney Heer stated that he would insist
that Judge Langan go on with the
hearing Monday morning unless he
was restrained by the court Attorney
Green, for Judge Langan, stated that
his client had advised him he would
not proceed with the case if it was
the wish of the supreme court that
action be delayed. Acting on this
statement, the court retired for a
short consultation, and upon their re-
turn Judge Talbot said:
THE application for writ of prohi-
bition is so interviewer with the ap-
peals on the merits Of the case that
the temporary writs should issue.
However, Attorney Green, having as
sured the court on behalf OF Judge
Langan that no action would be
taken if the writ would not issue at
this time. but if Judge Langan took
any further steps the writs would
then issue without further notice"

judgment, there has been no forfeit
ure Of the license, or either of them,
by abuse or violation of its terms,
common honesty would require that
the money obtained for the licenses
be refunded in case Of their revoea-
tion.
The protection of the morals, the
peace and good order of this com
munity is sufficient reason for the
revocation of these licenses, and |
am Of the opinion that they should
be revoked.

LINCOLN HIGHWAY
ASSOCIATION NOW
AN ACTIVE BODY

Colorado Springs. Apr 9.-Plans
for the development OF a great trans
continental route through central
Colorado to form link in the ma
tional highway are being formulated
and carried out by the Lincoln High
way Association of Colorado.
This association is a year old, and
at its recent annual convention in
Colorado Springs reports from the
various counties showed substantial
progress. The Lincoln highway con-
meets at the Kansas line with the
Golden Belt route and trayerses Kit
Carson, Lincoln, Ebert, FL Paso, Tel
Ter, Park, Chaffee. Lake, Pitkin.
Eagle, Garfield and Mesa counties.
II follows the general line of the
Rock Island railroad from the Kan
sas-Colorado line by way of Limon to
Colorado Springs, Colorado City and
Manitou; thence westward through
Ute pass to Buena Vista, with alter
native routes over the continental di-
vide, via Leadville and Tennessee
pass or Aspen and Independence pass,
10 Glenwood Springs, Grand Junction
and the Utah line.
Most encouraging We're the reports
made by each county of actual prog
ress made in 1912, and plans outlined
for development of a first-class high
way this year. In several counties
work Is now under way. Its advo-
catesclaim that the Lincoln highway
is not only the most direct route from
the Missouri river and intervening
points to the Rocky mountains, but
1T is at the present time in the best
shape, will be the most easily inn
proved and. besides, being the most
scenic route. Because it heads di-
rectly from the plains country to the
foot of Pixies peak, it is known as the
Pixies Peak route.
