RECEIVES MAJORITY OF IL TO 10
IN THE HIGHER HOUSE OF THE
LEGISLATURE WHEN BROUGHT
TO A VOTE THIS MORNING.
SEN. BRADSHAW OF HUMBOLDT,
FILES LARGE PETITION FROM
HIS HOME PEOPLE AND CASTS
HIS VOTE WITH MAJORITY.

CARSON CITY, Feb. 17.-(SpeciaD
The divorce bill was passed by the
senate this morning by a vote of IL
to 10. The deciding vote was cast
for the measure by Senator Bradshaw
of Humboldt, who has heretofore op-
posed the measure. In casting his
vote, Senator Bradshaw stated that
he had received a petition from his
home people to that effect and that
he was carrying out the wishes of his
constituency. The vote taken on the
bill today came as a surprise as the
bill was in the hands of the railroad
committee and it was not thought that
it would be returned until a week
from Saturday, or on the 9th. AS
the measure has already passed the
assembly by comfortable majority, 1t
is up to the governor to pass upon the
bill and If he approves It it will be-
come law. 1t is thought that he will
sign it without any delay and it will
become effective at once.
The effect of the passage of the
measure upon people in this city and
those from Reno who are attending
the sessions of the legislature was
electrical. Reno business men claim
that 1t viii return Reno to her former
status in the business world and re-
gain the prestige she has lost since
the old divorce bill was adopted. 1t
is this city that the law affects more
than any other In the state. Before
the present law was passed Reno was
the Mecca Of all persons seeking re-
lease from the marital bonds. Every
week people from all parts of the Uni
ted States came there to obtain di-
vorces and many members of the
Smart Set have resided there during
the necessary six months. These peo-
pie naturally spent a large sum Of
money there annually and when the
period of residence was raised busi-
ness fell off to a large extent. Reno
ties are enthusiastic now, however,
and predict nothing but prosperity for
their home town. =.

WHITE PINE COUNTY OFFICIALS STILL
ON TRAIL OF TRANSIENT SHEEP

The delusion that rowing bands of
sheep from Utah and Idaho would be
permitted to Craze in this county dur
ing the winter months in utter disre-
gard of the statutes was dispelled last
Wednesday when Sheriff c. S. Cram
attached about 1000 sheep belonging
to George Carson of Salem, Utah, in
the northeastern part of the county.
The amount due the county for graz
Ing and personal property taxes is in
excess of $500.
The present whereabouts of Carson
Is unknown. 1t is believed that the
wool grower whose herds are now
in the clutches of the law is some
where in California. Sheriff Grain
has been unable to obtain definite
information in regard to the missing
sheep man. The herds were placed
In charge of A. Valentine.
The attachment suit was brought
by District Attorney Jurich to deter
mine the legal rights of the county.
1t is estimated that the county has
been deprived of $4,000 during the
last eight years through the practice

pose Of wintering in our midst. The
officials of Elko county signified a
willingness to treat White Pine coun-
ty fairly, and 1t is quite likely that
this county in the future will receive
its just proportion of the taxes from
the nomadic herds from other states.
Although the Elko officials did not
deny that they had been collecting
these licenses with more than ordi-
nary energy, they suggested that an
agreement be entered into between
the two counties for a division of the
revenue derived from this source
