CURTAIN FALLS IN
STATEHOUSE HALLS
SENATE AND ASSEMBLY 40.
JouRN WHEN SUN PEEPS
THROUGH WINDOWS

After an all night session the legis-
lature yesterday morning at 1880
concluded its business and when the
gavel dropped, il ran down the cur
tain upon the most expensive and
non-productive session of the Nevada
senate and assembly that ever con-
vened. 1t is with relief that II is
learned that its potentialities for evil
are at an end, unless there should be
a special convocation. which is one
of the most unlikely things in the
world.
A bill to prohibit sales of stock on
margins was reported unfavorably by
the banks and banking committee in
the senate today and failed of pass
age.
There were a number of presenta-
tons made, one OF which was 6 locket
and chain to little Abraham Lincoln
Kendall, the godson of the senate.
Senator Fulmer made the presenta-
ton to Lieutenant Governor and Mrs
Sullivan of fine silver set; Senator
Huskey delivered over to Chief Clerk
A. l.. Haight a pair of diamond cuff
links: Senator Harrington made the
speech when President Pro TEN and
Mrs. Balzar receied the gift of II
silver set
The closing hours Of the session,
like those of the 26th session, wece
marked by bitter fight over the
appropriation for the state police, and
for time the controversy threatened
to tie up the Legislature indefinitely.
The senate held out for an appropri-
alton Of $4,000 and the assembly in
sisted on an appropriation of $25,OOO.
A compromise finally was reached
and the appropriation placed at
Sl7.5OO.
The appropriation Of $4,000 for sus-

GOLDFIELD, New, March 20.-The
bears made their last stand this week
against local securities which with
stood some of the most terrific ham
mering that has been directed against
them since the appearance of the
apex sit. For the last five days the
air has been charged with murky re-
ports all directed towards the unset
tling of public confidence and in face
of the most optimistic reports from
the mines themselves. These reports
gained such malicious tinge that
the business men of the camp finally
resolved to meet the condition brave
ly by calling a mass meeting at Unity
club for the purpose of bringing the
matter before the public for general
action. The men of Goldfeld have
no use for the knocker and they pro-
ceeded to tell a few of the species in
very plain language what was likely
to happen If they continued to send
out reports without foundation solely
for the purpose of manipulating the
market. A mild suggestion of the
old time vigilantes was in the air
and it was remarked that the sheriff's
office was not represented in the
audience.

ARGUED EVENINGS
PROPERTY INVOLVED IN ACTION
is ESTIMATED TO BE WORTH
ABOUT $500

Evidence in the case of Bowler VS..
Brann closed Wednesday evening and
argument began. Owing to the fact
that a jury trial in a criminal matter
is in progress each day, Judge Ave
rill is sitting during the evenings to
hear the case propounded.
H. r. Cooke opened for Mrs Bow
Ter and he did not conclude until
last evening, when T. X. Chambers
took up the argument for Mrs. Brann.
He will be followed in the closing
argument for the defense by J. X.
Chambers. The amount of property,
involved directly or indirectly in this
suit, is valued at about $6,5O0.

SATURDAY, DECEMBER II, 1915

It is a queer philosophy which will enable a man who pays no taxes and does not contribute ten dollars to- ward the upkeep of town to fiercely berate those who do so contribute. But such is invariably the case. The man who pays his taxes is soundly criticized by the non-taxpayer be- cause he is not willing to pay more into the hands of these looters to ex- pend in useless suits and quibblings, instead of paying the taxes obtained out in improvements, or for some thing which will do the city some good. Any one of the citizens whom the editor of the Forty-Ninth Start 50 roundly berates pays an hundred fold more taxes than he or most of his friends; and yet they are soundly Iambasted as undesirables. We won der how long the average man will let such bunk mislead him?
 One-half column against the pas tors and churches; five columns be- rating the Prospector; two columns attacking the court and attorneys; half column knocking the road con- mission; column and half knocking the efforts of the commercial club; and a general palladium of knocks constituted the valuable information disseminated by the Municipal Or gan yesterday. What an energetic, home-building organ it is.

Dispatches from Seattle announce that Delegate Wickersham will make the race as an old-line Republican this year. This is the delegates right, and we will admit that he is a mighty hard man to beat, under whatever party he chooses to enter the political arena. but it makes it mighty embarrassing for the Heav- enly Twins of the Forty-ninth mag nitude. They are touting Wick as a Democrat, and the Republican papers over the Territory claim him as one of their elect. It may be possible that the Twins are too busy to read the dispatches.

It seems comical to see a man who has never done days work in his life get upon a steeple and shout so loudly that he is the working mans "friend."

Let's give the reformer and agi- tator a good long vacation, and get down to brass tacks.
