Springs, an osteopathic physician.
accompanied BY his chaffeur. Harry
Child. arrived in town and left their
machine 1t the auto hostelry. both

good humor. A short time after the
chauffeur appeared on the scene once
more In rather excited frame Of
mind and told Mr.. Bomgardner not
70 let the doctor have the machine
when he called for II. claiming that
the bone doctor owed him money.
Mr.. Bomgardner At once gave mo-
tice Of his inclination to be neutral
and pursue policy Of watchful walt
ing In all the affairs Of life In which
he WAS not directly concerned. and
notified the chauffeur that the doc
tor could have his machine any time
he called for It and paid the storage
bill. He advised the chauffeur to go
up TO the city hall. secure the SER
vices Of q constable and attach the
machine II he wanted to hold It.
The chaffeur turned right about face
and made hurry up skidoo for the
city hall.
While he was gone the bone doc
tor rushed into the garage and ask
ed what his bill was, paid 1t. and
made hurry up getaway. The tire
Of one OF the rear wheels of the ma

attention was called to II. said that

AN EXPLANATION

The other day we published a
statement to the effect that the
controllers report showed that the
auditor reported the gross collec-
ton of revenue in this county for
1913 to be $124,817.74 while the
state treasurer reported $122,-
448.53 received from the county in
1918, a difference Of $2,369.39.
Not being able to reconile the diff
ference in the amounts reported
by the controller and treasurer, we
called on Treasurer Miller for an
explanation Of the discre eancy.
We thought We saw q chan-e 10
make Mr.. Miller apologize for
holding back money due the sat
but was cody inf that the
difference in the amounts repn-
sented the vouchers allowed by the
com missioners against the state, a
part Of which is the 5000 that
the controller refused to allow.

SUFFRAG|STS AGREE,
PROTECT THE SCHOOLS

The agitation against equal
suffrage il Nevada. cloaked under
the charge of the College Equal
Suffrage League of the state Uni
versity is introducing politics Into
the schools" by encouraging
thought on woman suffrage through
an essay contest, is as Pr sident
Stubs characterized it, only q
tempest in a teapot"
The attack on the college league
would be laughable were it not
combined with serious effort to
crush freedom of thought and dis
cussion in our schools, a right that
our ancestors struggled and died
fnr.
An amusing feature Of TIE atiask
is that papers that last December
chronicled with large headings the
fact that equal suffrage had been
defeated in a debat, in n Of u
high schools, without even the sug-
g%estion that the subject is poll
tics" when it meets an adverse de-
c%ision, now raises this hue and cry
when III cause is advancing and
there is every likelihood of a fav-
orable decision by the electors. The
discussion Of equal suffrage is not
politics" when it suits our oppon-
ents and it is politics when il
doesn't suit them. A flaw ia logic
which is frequently attributed to
women but which like many fail
ings is common to the human race.
Following Is the letter sent out
by Miss Clara Smith, President Of
the College Equal Suffrage League
of u state university which start.

Byrd. c. Pierce, M. A. Palmer and
Charles Nordling all of whom they
will leave with Warden Dickerson
to serve the state.
After the prisoners left the Jail
yesterday for the penitentiary, the
cells they vacated were cleaned up
and made ready for new occupants.
In the cell Jan Byrd had occupied,
a knife vas found. How it got
there, except it was smuggled in by
a trusty, is a mystery to the off
GERS.
At a session of the district court
last night, District ATTORNEY Car
vile moved a dismissal of the M
Combs case. The motion was based
on the insuficiency of the evidence
to convict and the general feeling
throughout the county that it was
impossible to convict the defend
ant. Judge Taber took the motion
under advisement. .
h. L. Rummel of Jarbidge has
been granted a permit to carry a
gun by the county commissioners.
From what we have learned it ap-
pears that ne had a personal en-
counter with some Of his partners
over soma mining stock and claim
ed that he could not get protection
from the constable and justice of
the peace. This appears to US to
bad business on the part of the
board as it may lead to a shooting
scrspe and cause a big expense to
the county.

DISTRICT COURT

When our report closed Monday
afternoon, Frank Harton was on
the stand in the Salgado case. He
was followed by Drs. Worden and
West who testified to the nature of
the wounds found on tn body of
the murdered girl. After him
came Indian Andy, her father. The
defensa tried very lard to make
Andy admit that Salgoda and Bes-
sic were living together at the
time of ths murder. Andy didn't
know much about their relations as
he was drunk the most of the tire
ne was in town before the night
of the murder. He admitted, how
ever, that he and his squaw, and
Salgoda AMI Bessie were at the
China restaurant the evening be-
fore the murder was committed
and thai I'll were drinking. He was
pretty full and went home with
his squaw. After Andy came F.
c.. Weight, H. U. Castle, o. M.
Lamon and Geo. Cotant, all of
whom testified about the knife
with which the young squaw was
murdered. The knife was then ad-
mitted in evidence. j. l.. Keyser
was then called. He produced and
identified the red sweater taken
from Bessie's body. The knife and
sweater were then given to the
jury for examination.
The state then stated that its
testi nony at hand was all in, but
that more evidence might be sub
mitted Tuesday morning. Court
then adjourned until 10 O'Clock

ters had come to his attention sinre

t"at might make a change in the
defense to be made and asked for
an hour in which to investigate.
The court granted the request and
took a recess until IL o'clock. The
proposed defense was said to be
insanity.
When court convened at II O.
clock the insanity defense failed to
msterialize, and Jack Shields was
called as the first witness. He told
the story of the killing the same as
the witnesses for the state told it.
The defendant then took the
stand and testified through an in
terpre ,r. He said that he had liv-
ed 10 Elko about 8 months before
the killing and had liv d in Stock

worked until 5 minutes to 6 o'clock
on Thanksgiving day. After quit
ting he went to the section house
and then to the Chinese restaurant
next to the Elko saloon. There he
met Bessie and her father and
mother. They had supper, after
which they started for the Indian
camp. At the Bakery Saloon, they
met an American and a half-breed
Mexican. Had met. them before

COMMUNICATED.

To the Readers of Milford Chronicle:
] We greatly need your interest and
! help. For every ten days of school, Del
aware children are in school only six
days. During the month Of October an
effort will be made to set people thinking
about this condition. Talk the facts over
with your friends and neighOOrs. Every
newspaper, every public forum of the
State, will say something about this mat
ter and will urge attention TO it upon
parents. Childhood, too, has its 'inalien-
able rights: one of them is to be sent to
school We ask for help in getting this
inalienable' right for every child.
An appeal for increased appropriations
to add so-called new studies might
look more attractive or seem more pro
gressive. For solid and lasting benefit
to schools and children, however, there
is no substitute for entire, regular attend
ance for the full term. Improve the
school all You can, and many improve
ments are admittedly needed, II the
ChfidJeH are not ia Sch0OL MfV cannot
beHcfk bY the Improvements, and our
waste is so much greater. In 1912 we
wasted Sill ,5O4 by poor attendance; we
can make our schools 500, 900 worth bet |
ter, more efficient, without the outlay of |
an additional dollar.
When this wrong to helpless childhood,
this neglect of solemn duty, shall be
made plain to our people and fastened
upon their consciences, there will be born
/ Statewide public opinion that shall
,orrect this state of affairs How satisfied
'Ou will feel. and quite properly so, to
hink, Il did my share in that job " We
rust YOU may share that enjoyment with
IS, hence we repeat, we need your help
In this appeal for a hearty effort that,
divisions of opinion and action
n other matters, shall arouse a single,
nited resolve to better school attend
nee this year, remain,
