WILL THERE BE AN EXTRA
SESSION OF LEGISLATURE?

There are rumors that there will be
an extra session of the legislatu-e
early in January next, but there seems
tn be but one matter that would re-
quire such a session and that is the
amendment or correction of the ju-
dietary act. At the last session a bill
was passed redistricting several Of
the judicial districts and since the
adjournment of the legislature it has
been discovered that the enrolling
clerks left out one line in the bill
which makes the bill provide for two
district judges for every judicial dis
triet except the second. which is
Washoe county, and in that distric.
makes provision for only one Judge.
As the bill really passed it provided
for only one judge in each judicial
district except Washoe county AMI
in that county two were provided for.
1t is undoubtedly true that two judges
may be elected in every district out
side of the second and no power can
prevent their being sworn in under
the law as it now stands.-Carson

Salt Lake Thursday on his way east.
He may go to st. Louis to confer

Gould lines relative to the building
of the new line. Alf-surveys have
been completed from Winnemueca to
Boise and everything is in readiness
for actual construction. {.
sWe are ready for construction as
soon as the Western Pacific procures
the money! said Mr.. Place at the
Cullen hotel. "We practically have
assurance that the line will be built,
but the interested parties are await
ing action by the railroad which
needs the line as a feeder. There is
over $55,000,000 invested in the main
line of the Western Pacific and ii
would be one of the greatest roads
in the west if it had $35,0000, ,000
more to extend feeders into the rich
country which lies on all sids of it. -

SAFETY FIRST" FEATURES
OF SOUTHERN PACIFIC

One of the features of the Southern
Pacific company's Safety First -
campaigns-a campaign to secure the
safety of life and limb of employees
and patrons-is the annual competi-
tion among the eleven divisions of the
Pacific system for the banners award
eo those sending in the largest num-
ber of practicable suggestions for
safety and the elimination of careless
ness and hazardous conditions and
practices. The company has just an
nounced the winners for 1913. They
are the San Joaquin division of the
Southern district; the Coast division
of the Central district; the Shasta
division of the Northern district and
the Sacramento shops, the latter com
peting with the other shops of the
entire system.
In its efforts to promote safety
the company recognizes the value OF
suggestions coming from its employees
experienced in railroad work. And
the men, themselves, take a great
deal of interest in making the sug
gestions and are unsparing in theil
efforts to win for their respective di
vision the place of honor in the com
petition.
The banners are awarded in eael
district to the division sending the
greatest number Of practical safety
suggestions per 100 employees by tn,
central safety committee, composed OF
executive officials and the result OF
the contest is IN doubt until the las
day when the suggestions received are
checked up.
The company received for the yea
ending June 30, 2,673 suggestions
1,7sS, or 81 per cent, of which wer'
practical. The cost of Improvement
made in this connection amounted t,
$41, ,634.63 with pending expenditure
for adopted suggestions, approximat
ing the cost of the uneompleted worl
at $4,000.

CATTLE ASSOC|A-
ton PAYS REWARD

Last week the $500 reward offered
by the Paradise Valley Cattle Grow
ers' Protective association for the
capture of the man who stole three
horses belonging to the Ed Stock
Land & Cattle company was paid to
Sheriff Lamb by Secretary J. F..
Harvey.
Lawrence Gale, the elf-confessed
hsrsethief, drove the stock to Tono-
pah, where he disposed of it, after.
wards being apprehended by the
sheriff while at work on a ranch near
Golconda.
For several weeks after the theft
no trace of the stock or thief could
be found, but shortly after the re-
ward had been offered both were
found. But to the interested parties
it was rather expensive justice. The
three head of horses were worth per
haps 5000, and to get the stock back
and capture the thief cost Ed Stock
between 5000 and $3.50 and the Cat
tie association $500 more, making
a total of nearly $3.50, or practically
three times the value of the stock.
On August 26 Gale plead guilty
to grand larceny in the District Court
and was sentenced by Judge Ducker
to serve a term in the penitentiary
of not less than one nor more than
IA years. Providing he makes a
good prisoner, he will no doubt be
released on parole at the expiration
of the minimum sentence.
