Brother Brown of the Cortez Herald
became very indignant and gave US an
awful roasting in last weeks issue of
his valuable paper because, as he
alleges, The Star said he was q total
abstainer. We are unable to find any
such assertion in The Star and still
think that Brother Brown must have
read it in some other paper. But if
such q statement did appear in this
paper an apology is not only due Mr..
Brown but we wish also to apologize
to our readers, for it is not our inten-
tons to publish and such glaring mis-
statements.

also accused of planning to wipe out

was armed at the time of the killing
and had been for some time previous,
and that he had made certain remarks
shortly before the crime, had a biz

.ELKO NORMAL TEACHER
GIVES PLEASANT TALK

The Elko Normal school has been
running along so nicely and so quiet
ly that one would scarcely know that
il Is in existence. and that the girls
who are preparing themselves for the
busy profession of teaching are learn
ing their daily lessons and the school
is already an unQuesLioned success.
The teaching head of the institution
is Mrs Edith Brown, who, although a
stranger to the community, has taken
hold of her work with an enthusiasm
that has gained her already large
circle Of friends.
Last week she was called upon to
be ole o. the principal speakers at
the Teachers Institute at Ely, and she
delivered a discourse there upon rural
teaching which has won her many fav-
orablc comments, and which has
brought the Elko Normal into the pub
lie mind in a very favorable way. She
spoke three times during the progress
Of the institute, but her main talk
was upon the subject of Rural School
Organization.
Mrs. PTCwn is back at her post, the
Elko Normal School is doing work
that with proper attention may be-
come Df inestimable benefit to Elko,
and MrS Brown according to the re-
ports of others who were at that in
stitute down in Ely has left an impress
sion behind her that will make them
realize perhaps more than those here
in Elko do, the real value of the Ell
ko normal.
