EDITORIALS,
WASTE OF NEVADA Money

The taxpayers of Nevada are fac
ing the expenditure of $4,000 of
their money for the two California
expositions of 1915.
The size of this amount is such
as to arouse proper criticism not
only for itself but in view Of the
inadequate return to be anticipat-
ed. Viewed from any light it is too
much. No State, however well
provided with money can afford
to pay more for anything than it is
worth, but we see this State
which cannot spare 100000 for
highways-appropriating to Cali
fornia an amount which. if given
in the same ratio by other States
would turn a veiitable food of
money rolling toward the Pacific.
Nevada has population of ap-
proximately 10000: New York ap-
proximately 100000. If New
York appropriated to the fairs on
the same scale as Nevada she would
give 100 times $4,000, or Sl4,-
100000 The excessive proportion
is only seen in the comparison.
Again, for this exposition Neva-
o. da taxpayers are charged six cents
on the 500 for two years, which
is twice the amount levied per an
mum for the general school fund
of the State. In 1916 we are called
upon to expend in California twice
rs much as we expend in the gen.
eral school fund for the education
in any one year.
In view of this condition, public
opposition has been properly arous-
ed against such a large expendi-
ture and The energy of the press,
the State officials and the taxpay-
ers should be directed to devising
remedy.
1t seems the concensus uf opinion
that such a sum as this should not
be expended if il can be avoided.
Such an expenditure is not in
evita5le. A way out lies in the dis
erection Of the hoard of directors
of the expositioEs. Present reli-
ance must be placed on them, but
if they fail relief must be sought
at the special session of the legis-
lature to be called next year.

When the Huge Ape Broke Loose and
Tried to Run the Ship.

Among Ihe Thrilling experiences
that have happened on shipboard
the one that befell Captain H. L.
Mckay is not the least remarkable.
Captain Mckay recounts the story
himself in the New York World:
We were trading from Singapore,
Hongkong and San Francisco. At
small place in Borneo we had taken
on a consignment Of animals, among
which was huge orang outang that
stood six feet on his hind legs. |
thought the bars of his box were
not very strong, but the man in
charge of the animals laughed at my
fears.
Like all big apes captured in ma
turity, this fellow was stubborn and
would not eat. The hungrier he got
the more he raved and tore at his
bars. On the fourth day we ran
into a terrific hurricane. 1t almost
set the boat on its beam ends. The
storm increased the orang outang's
fury, and his yells became louder
and louder.
About midnight | left the bridge
in charge of Lowrie, the first mate,
and went below to try to get wink
of sleep. | had hardly closed my
eyes when one of the sailors on
watch came rushing in with his face

cried.

on deck. The wind almost took me
off my feet, and the seas were wash
ing across the decks. Occasional
flashes Of lightning lit up the night.
| looked down from the bridge, but
could see no sign Of the orang ou
tang. Then | heard a terrible COM
motion and cries for help.
"He's breaking into the galley"
said Lowrie, "trying to get the cook:
Tine rest OF the crew have locked
themselves up in the fo'cas'le."
