Many of the sweIis are said to have
sent sh!yers through the craft, and the
constant pounding is assigned as the
direct cause OF the opening OF a seam
through which a volume of water
poured. and baffled the efforts OF
steam pumps to keep down. \ &
That the Claudine slipped her
cables and drifted upon a reef is alb

The Paradise OF the Pacific is de-
stined to attract a larger number of

dictions ventured BY coast steamship
men, foremost among whom is Cap

DOES NEVADA NEED
ANOTHER u. S. JUDGE?

Just as we were leaving TIE office
last night, we received a dispatch
from Washington saying that Soma.
tor Pittman had introduced a bill,
providing for holding terms of the
United States CoUr; in Elko, Hum
buldt, NE and White Pine coin-
ties and for the appointment of a
additional U. s. district judge for
Nevada.
While we are not Informed us to
the condition of business in the
United States cour; at Carson and
do not know whether there is more
business than one Judge can attend
to, we are inclined TO doubt the
necessity for another district Judge
in this state. According to a dis
patch in the Reno Gazette. Senator
Pittman bases his bill on the hard
ship on litiGants in the Southern
counties in travelling to and from
Carson to attend court. This may
all be true, but DOES it justify the
creation OF more federal Offices in
Nevada?
The tendency of the times seert S
to be the creation OF more officers,
both state and national, for the
people to pay. To this, we are op-
posed. unless Inc creation Of these
officers are absolutely necessary for
the accommodation and welfare of
the people. How -vct, we do not
for u moment suppose that anything
we sau will influence congress in
any way On this bill. Perhaps wa
might favor thu bill il we were
fully informed on the situation but
with u present knowledge We
do not see the necessity for it.

GEORGE ]. COULD feel en-

will be better. | do not think the
abolition of interlocking director
atcs will prove so troublesome or
disturbing to the corporations as
has been feared in some circles.
HARTMAN & CO-The mes
sage contains nothing that should
alarm the investor. No legislation
radical enough to in;ure business is
suggested. The public is prepared
for new laws with definite rules
for doing business and for punish
ing individuals for attempts to do
business unfairly. The reforms to
be attempted will be comparatively
easy.
JOHN r. KEANE-The message
displays GOODNESS, precision and ex-
cellent judgment. 1t shows the

ment throughout the country. The
suggestions made could only come
from a mastery mind. The mes

WATER LAW
CONSTITUTIONAL IN SPOTS

Judge Quicker has decided that
the Carpenter water law, p~rcscrib-
ing the duties of the state engi-
ncer passed by the 1913 legisla-
ture. is constitutional in spots and
unconstitutional in others. The de-
cision was rendered Wednesday in
the Isl of fifty water users against
State Engineer Kearnpy. The
plaintiffs brought suit to restrain
him from holding hearings to de-
tPrmine the relative rights Of wat
er users along the Humboldt river.
The decision is on a demurrer to
the complaint and a motion to
dissolve the temporary injunction.
The Star says that the law was
attacked upon several constitutional
grounds namely. That it conferred
judicial functions upon a non-judic-
ial officer; that it WIS a special
law; that it deprived persons of
their property without due process
of law; and that it deprived the
District Courts of the State of
their original jurisdiction and con-
ferred upon these courts appellate
Jurisdiction in certain cases con-
itrary 70 the State Constitution.
Judge Quicker upheld the consti-
tutionality Of the law on the first
three grounds and declared its un-
constitutional on the last named
ground. a number of the sections
IF the law were held uncCnstitu-
tional as depriving the District
Courts OF the State of their origi,
ma; jurisdiction in certain classes
of cases exclusively g;"an such
courts BY the State Constitution
Iand comforting upon them appel,
late Jurisdiction prohibited by the
constitution in such cases.
The defendants motion to dis,
solve the temporary injunction
was denied. The demurrer to the
complaint WAS also overrulcd and
the defendant, given thirty days IN
which to answer the complaint. An
appeal to the Supreme Court will
now be taken for a final construc.
ti2n of the law.

names and the amount due each,
and as the miners appeared they
would give their names. He would
glance at the list and count the
money from Ii table near by. On
that table there were tills with
$50 gold pieces in $400 piles, the
same as in a bank. that is the $50
pieces we're built 20 pieces high
and the silver for change was in a
heap on the table. One day as the
paying was going on Mr.. Mackay
was sitting inside of the rail with
n friend from San Francisco. when
looking up, outside the rail he
saw n kindly old Irish woman.
Mackay left his friend, walked up
to the rail, leaned toward the wo-
man and said, What is it?' She
