 Timber For Greens Mill

Geo. L. Green, the well known sawmill man, and Eli Blittian, who was cutting timber for Green, be- came involved in a dispute over some timber Monday and Brittian struck Green with an iron wedge, inflicting two very painful wounds.
 The difficulty occurred near Black river in Logan township where Brittian was cutting tim Der. Brittian claims that Green was advancing on him in a threat ening manner when he picked up a couple of iron wedges lying near and threw them at Green. One of the wedges struck Green just be- low the arm.pit and the other struck him on the side of the head. The wedge which struck Green on the head inflicted a rather ser ious wound, requiring medical at tention, seven stitches being neces- sary to close up the wound. Green was taken to Tuckerman, where he is making headquarters, and late reports indicate that he IS im- proving nicely.

Trail of Murder Suspect Leads
Reno Officers to Virginia City

RENO, Aug 27.-The man hunt
for the unknown slayer who Tuesday
night shot and killed John Krutzler
OF Medford, Ore, while he was driv-
ing with Miss Mildred Lyons along
the Virginia-C Carson road, stretched
yesterday across all the territory
within radius of three hundred
miles of Reno. Various clews we've
gathered by the police and deputy
sherltts prosecuting the search but, so
far. none has resulted in the arrest
OF the unidentified murderer
The search was given added imDe-
tus yesterday when it was learned
from the relatives of Miss Lyons,
who is the 17-year-old daughter of J.
S. Lyons of the Lyons ranch, near
Steamboat Springs that the young
man who was killed was to have
been her husband, their engagement
having been announced but a few
days ago to the young woman's inti-
mate friends.
throughout yesterday the young
woman, whose romance had had its
tragic ending the night before when.
without a moments warning me-,
nance fell into her arms a corpse,
hovered close to a breakdown from
nervous prostration.
The only definite information in
the hands of the officials with which
to direct the search for the SLAYER. j.
that a few weeks ago krutzler, who
| had Just come to Nevada from Ore
gon. engaged in two fights with a
ranch hand on Browns ranch. near
the Lyons home. The argument
which caused the alterations wa;
one of socialism, the other man be-
ing understood to be member of
the |. w. w. organization. At this
time the other man declared tha,
some day he would get Krutzler
Ihls man answers generally to the
J best description of the murderer
| Mss Lyons has been able to give
the officers, and he is being traced.

Corrupt Practice
Act Objected to

The Nevada Press association at its
midsummer meeting recently held
i'll Tonopah, adopted unanimously
the following:
Resolved, That the newspaper
publishers Of Nevada, represented by
this association, are unreservedly op-
posed to the so-called corrupt prat-
ticc act, approved March 81, 1913, IN
SO far as the act assumes to restrain
the freedom of public discussion of
the character of candidates for pub
lie office. Without wish or inclina-
ton to evade any moral responsible
ty for statements published. the ill.,
hibitions and prescriptions, especial
ly those embodied in section 81 of
the act in question, appear to us to
exceed in their scope and severity
any restraints ever heretofore impos-
tive government and more accurate
ly reflects the spirit Of an absolute
monarchy. We believe these provi-
sons to be in contravention not only
of the federal constitution, but OF
the constitution OF Nevada, in their
guarantee OF free press and free
dom Of speech. We believe them to
be without precedent in any other
state of the Union, ecept that state
which attempted to prohibit by law
discussion of measures pending be-
fore its state legislature. We believe
that in so far as the provisions re-
ferred to are involved, that act could
more properly be Untitled the cor.
rupt candidates act"

State Registration
Totals Nearly $4,000

Tables arranged for the Reno Jour
nal place the states registration Il
WIS. This, the paper states, IS
from 215 precincts out Of 242. Tht
registration is divided among the dlf
ferent parties as follows:
Republican, o,o94; Democratic, g.,
7O2; Progressive, 3S9; Socialist, S5S,
and non-partisan, 1887.
While the figures given out are uh~
doubtedly correct, they are palpably
misleading and in a number of in
stances fail to give the political COM
plexion of the counties, as under the
primary law, while a man is suppos-
ed to give his party atfiliatlon there
Is no way to ascertain definitely
whether he is telling the truth. IN
Reno, for instance. it is practically
admitted that the Republicans con-
troll by several hundred, while ac-
cording to the registration the Demo-
Gratis have substantial majority,
and an analysis shows that this IS
because OF fight for a couple of
county offices and many Republicans )
have registered as Democrats in or
der to help out their favorites or to
help nominate a weak Democrat and
knock d strong Democrat out of thc
race.
In Esmeralda county the Demo
ratio registration indicates LIZ vot-
ers against 3SS Republicans. 1t is
known in Goldield that many Re
publicans and Socialists have regis
tered as Democrats in order to de-
feat Bill Ingalls,, the present incun-
bent, for sheriff The same condi-
ton prevails in Tonopah and other

in particular have registered as Dem
