Camp of Rochester

One can hear that black pneumonia is
ravaging the camp. that work cannot
be had. that business is dull. that pop
ulation is dwindling, the outlook is
clouded with doubt, that the ores are
rebellious and little of every thing else
wrong with the camp.
On the other hand. there are the wild.
exuberant boosters, uen who with
tongue aud ink claim for the district
what it does not claim for itself. IL is
a common occurrence to hear or read of
fabulous strikes, of conditions approach.
ing the mad swirl Of the palmy days of
Goldfield.
Oh these evils the last is the worst,
Rochester is a tub standing on it's bot
tom, not a whirling top that will run
down. nor a hot air balloon that will
seek the earth as soon as the temper
ature is reduced.
The best friends Rochester possesses
are the men and the newspapers who
simply tell the facts and in plain, IN.
vanished language, for the truth is
amply good.-Rochester Miner.

Divorce Point is Settled

Heated controversy has waged in Ne
vada ever since the new divorce law was
adopted last month over whether or
not its effect when becoming operative
January next would be to shut off
further jurisdiction over cases pending
upon that date. thereby making it
necessary for all applicants to terminate
their cases completely ON or before De.
cember 81, has been settled. An amend
ment has been passed by both Houses
providing that when jurisdiction shall
have been established In divorce actions
filed on or before December 81, such
jurisdiction shall continue until it's
termination. The Governor will ap-
prove the amendment.

Ready to Die For Country

John Papalex. former owner of the
Antler cafe at Ely. but who sold out
to go to the war, writes to the White
Pine News in high spirits from Greece,
where he is with the Greek army and
was expecting at the date of the letter
TO go to the front the next day. He
says among other things that he has an
American Cash Register agency for
Greece, "but | won't start on that
business until we've driven the Turks
out of Europe" He sends this message:
"If get killed will not care because
l will die but once in this world. am
u soldier getting 1c per day and my
feed. Tell my friends that we will be
in Oonstantinople in few days If the
young Turks will not accept terms of

Detention Home

Nevada is sorely in need of q deten-
tion home for boys and the Legislature
passed a bill appropriating $4,000 for
such a home. This new State institu-
ton goes TO Elko. the citizens of that
town donating the ten acre site and Civ
ing $4,000 toward the cost of the
buildings.
The new law regulating the distrlbu.
tion and appropriating of water for ir.
rigating purposes and providing for
policing the larger streams aud pre-
venting the waste and theft of water
is important to all the agricultural Sec
tions and is a step toward better condi.
tions in agricultural matters. The law
contains so printed pages aud will re-
quire considerable study to master all
it's important features.
For 1915 Exhibits
To those who believe In advertising
away from home the bill providing for
a display at both the Panama Pacific
Exposition at San Francisco and the
Panama California Exposition at San
Diego is of much importance. A site
has been selected at both places and
$40. 600 will be spent at the southern
city and about $50. 900 at San Francisco.
This fund is raised by special tax levy.
The State institutions were given
especial attention and much will be
saved to the State in the future. The
State Prison Farm will be equipped for
the raising of thoroughbred stock and
will eventually make the prison self
sustaining.
As an evidence of economy the bill
was passed abolishing the State Bureau
of Industry, Agriculture and Irrigation.
An Act was passed of especial interest
to horticulturists and agriculturists
making it possible for State authorities
to quarantine against infections aud
pests. something tha' has been impos-
sible heretofore.
Governor Act. on Important Measures
Carson City. March 22.-Out of the
batch of some It's bills passed by the
Legislature. Governor Oddie has already
signed over 90, mostly bills of local i'm
portance.
The tax commission bill has been
signed, likewise the gambling bill and
the 10round boxing bill.
One bill was vetoed. A. B. 81. and
thereto hangs a tale.
Assemblyman bill 54 provides that
when there is no appropriation made
for an existing office. the salary must
not be paid out of the general fund.
There was no appropriation made for
the bureau of industry, agriculture and
irrigation. A bill was passed abolish.
ing the office.
The action of the Governor indicates
an intention to veto the bill abolishing
the commission and with the veto al.
ready made the salary for that Office
will come out of the general fund.
1t is noted. however. that there is no
appropriation for the tax commission.
The veto on "a likewise saves the tax
commission from going for two years
without salary.

ESTABLISHED 1870
WORK OF The LEGISLATURE
Unprecedented Number of Bills Handled and Unusual
Combination Of Important Measures Disposed Of
By Session Just Concluded

The close of the Legislature brings
the inevitable question as to the general
nature of the results accomplished.
whether large or small in quantity.
good or bad in quality.
The following summary by the Reno
Journal of the work done discloses the
fact that never before in the history of
the legislative sessions, have so many
bills been introduced, nor so many bills
passed and that rarely have there been
so many important measures affecting
the order aud prosperity of the State
presented and disposed Of.
This is not criticism but resume of
the history of the session. So far as
criticism is concerned, this Legislature
has been freer from adverse comment
during its life than many that have
preceded it.
Measures Passed
Among the measures passed were laws
for the reform of elections including a
revision aud betterment of the general
election and the primary law. and law
against corrupt practices, a law provid-
ing for industrial insurance, law pro.
viding for an inheritance tax, law pro-
viding better procedure in determining
water rights. law providing for the
construction Of highways which will
extend over the State across the north
ern and across the southern part, laws
concerning gambling and laws concern.
ing divorce. and submitting to the
voters the question of equal suffrage.
The tax commission. law whose status
is a matter Of some speculation provides
for a supervision of assessments in this
State, the abolition OF the State Board
of Assessors, and the levying Of assess
ments against common carrier and other
corporations by State board. Although
this law is subject to some uncertainty
as to its passage the doubt is beginning
to be dispelled. Governor Oddie has
The Eureka sentinel. [volume] (Eureka, Nev.) 1902-current, 1913-03-29

expressed an opinion that the enroll.
ment of the bill will ignore the protest
and It Is claimed that there is authority
In the Supreme Court decisions of the
past to the effect that the objections are
not fatal.
Many Local Measures
Aside from the many local measures
passed and the work of ascertaining
what was needed for the maintenance
OF the State government aud institutions
and making provision for them, three
bills were passed that will be of great
value to the State and will put Nevada
In the column with the rest OF the pro-
gressive States that have adopted meas.
ures to secure good roads.
The Russell! road bill changes the
present system of road work in counties
that desire change. 1t makes or gives
local option to counties in the selection
OF method to improve their roads.
Then two bills were passed. each
carrying small appropriation for the
establishing Of two great State high
ways for the use of our own people and
for the use Of those who desire to see
our State or pass through it going either
west or east over the proposed national
highway from the Atlantic to the Pa
cific.
ln this connection the fact was taken
into consideration that Utah has appro.
priated sl5, 900 TO assist in building a
road in one county. Box Elder County
TO join the Nevada roads at Montello in
Elko County. Box Elder County has
agreed to spend like amount to build

Clean Campaigns

The Corrupt Practice Act passed is
the most stringent law of the kind ever
drafted. No candidate will be allowed
to make treating campaign or furnish
money for his friends to make one for
him. No candidate will be allowed to
hire or furnish conveyance to the polls
for any voter aud the result of the elec-
tion will be the choice of majority of
those citizens who take enough interest
in the elections to 20 to the polls and
vote. While the law is so strict that no
doubt some candidates will endeavor to
evade some of its provisions, yet it will
effectually put stop to the methods
heretofore used in campaigning, and is
an important piece of legislation.
The new election law is voluminous,
but only rectifies small imperfections in
our present law aud is calculated TO de.
crease the expense Of all elections

completed and door cut through to
the main store.
The Talent schools opened Monday

GOLD HILL LOSES TEACHER.
Successor to Verne Blue Chose Mat
rimOny Instead

Gold Hill, Jan. 14.-Preferring
housekeeping to teaching school,
Miss Gronell of Portland, who was
to have taken charge of the seventh
and eighth grades of the local
schools Monday morning, announced
her matrimonial intentions at the
eleventh hour, says the Gold Hill
News. The grades in question were
left without a teacher by the recent
resignation of Vernon G. Blue, who
accepted a position in Honolulu.
Through a Portland agency the APP
plication of Miss Gronell was Sc
cured and accepted by the school di-
rectors. When Monday came and
went without the arrival of the new
schoolma am, the agency was wired
to explain. In due time the explana-
tion arrived, and the quest for an
other teacher was taken up. Miss
Gronell, all fixed out in travelling
togs, suitcase in hand, and trunk
| checked to Gold Hill, awaited the
southbound train al Portland. Enter
the hero, glancing wildly around
"Ah, at last! You really aren't go
ing way down to Gold Hill to teach
school, are you?" The reply came
in the affirmative. TOO far away"
objected the young man. why not
! cancel your contract with the board
and get married." The couple made
a happy exit from the depot, time
tables and trains forgotten, to notify
the teachers agency that sweet fem
ninity had ayailed itself of a con-
ceded privilege-and again changed
its mind.
And that is WIN two grades of the
Gold Hill schools lack regular in
structor at present, although the po-
sition is being filled temporarily by
Mrs. George Patrick, clerk of the
board.
