A MOST HAPPY

1t was very happy s.ffair that the
suffrage ladies held at the Mayer Ho-
tel dining room Saturday afternoon.
The I'lace was crowded and 1t was a
success from every view point. A
number of splendid vocal and instru-

fore adjournment was taken the ladies
drank to the health, happiness, and
prosperity of all the men who had
aided in securing for Nevada women
the right of franchise.
A very interesting talk was given
during the afternoon by Mrs Truran,
an English lady who Is at present re-
siding in Elko with her husband. She
spoke Of the militant methods en-
ployed by the English women to Sc
cure suffrage, and other matters con-
nected with the movement. Her an
alysis of conditions in England with
respect to women was very interest
ing and when she had finished there
was hardly person who
did not admit that the
women of England were in
a very large measure justified in their
actions. While not an experienced
speaker, Mrs. Truran is most pleasing
and entertaining.
We understand that a ladies civic
league is now to be organized. Their
fight for suffrage having been won,
the suffrage league is to disband.

what measures he likely would recon-

sufficient time 10 study thoroughly
all the different measures he expected
to mention in his first message, but
that every measure he will recon-
mend to the legislature would be an
Improvement over the present sys-

state. In the matter of appointments
he would not talk. He declares he is
ambitious to give Nevada the most
economical government which can be
given it, without reducing the eGic-
iency OF any department. Every ap-
pointment he will make he says, will
be made with a view to economy and

Eight propositions at least will be

Check Forged On Local Firm Of Leber-

As a result of an attempt to cash
a forged check on the local firm of
Leberski and Lloyd, a white man Civ
ing the name of Vann, his son and a
negro are in Jail here today. The at
tempt was a bold, albeit a bungle-
some piece of work. The men had
recently come to this city from some
point in the state of Washington and
had purchased some groceries from
Sutherland and McFarlane and had
left them in Leberskl and Lloyds
house, coming in and getting them oc-
casionally. One time as they came
in to get some groceries from
their stock Of supplies, they caught
both members of the firm upstairs
and their checkbook lying on the
counter. Some one of the men stole
two of the blank firm checks and
wrote one of them out to one Grimes
in the sum of $3.50. They tried to
get it cashed at the Telescope hotel,
Engler's Store and at one of the
houses in the restricted district. They
failed at all the places, however, and

get money on the paper, notified Mr..

constable McMurtrey. A search for
the men was Immediately instituted
but was unsuccessful until Saturday
afternoon when they tried to get the
check cashed at John Browns saloon
opposite the Western Pacific depot.
Brown was unsuspecting and would
have given them the money on the
paper but did not have the amount in
the house. However, he took the
check to the Bank to get it cashed
for the men when the fraud was dis
covered by him and the officers ac-
companied him to his saloon and ar
rested the parties.
Mr.. Lloyd said to an Independent
reporter this morning that the only
reason the check was not cashed at
first was the fact that it was improp-
erly made out. At the bottom of the
check, as on all business houses
checks. the firm name was printed and
a blank line left for the countersigna-
ture. Ignorant of the initials of either
member of the firm, the men had
signed the name of "Leberski and
Lloyd, per Leberski and Lloyd" and
OF course aroused suspicion which
resulted in the arrest of the guilty
parties.
