RABIES NOT NEWLY
DISCOVERED PLAGUE

Lockett, field expert in animal dis.
ease control)
Rabies Is not a new disease; It is
as old as history; here 1t is an old dis
ease in a new country.
The earliest reference to rabies In
history dates back to 326 years before
Christ. To Aristotle, a Greek writer,
is ascribed the first extant mention OF
this disease. He says; Dogs suffer
from madness. which puts them In a
state Of fury and all the animals that
they bite when in this condition be-
come also attacked with rabies"
Other ancient writer's after his day
mention rabies as definite disease
but the earliest complete description
was given by CELSIUS In the first cen
tury A. ID. Good descriptions OF the
disease are also found in the medical
writings of the second century Dur
ing the middle ages, when literature
and many other useful things went
more or less TO the dogs, there is nc
mention of the disease but Il did not
die even in spite Of the middle ages

j. S. AND GERMANY
UNABLE TO AGREE ON
SUBMARINE WARFARE
Submarines Will Give W5rning II
Allies Will Give Pledge 20 Use
Guns Only For Defense.
Ey Pac. and lnt'l News Service.

WASHINGTON, d. c., Feb 17.-Am-
bassador Won Bernstorff and Secre-
tary Lansing held a twenty minute
minute conference this morning, but
refused to give out any statement to
the press.
II is understood that Lansing has
informed the German ambassador that
the United States viewed the proposed
new submarine activity against mer.
chantment as plain violation of the
international law.
Germany is standing squarely on
her pledges, but says she cannot
waive her right to sink armed mer.
chantmen. liners excluded.
1t is understood that the United
States requires that Germany give
her a written pledge that passenger
liners, although armed. will be i'm
mune from unwarned attack.
Germany holds that if such orders
are given her submarine commanders
the United States must secure from
the entente powers a pledge that un'
der no circumstances will the armed
liners use their guns except for de.
fense.
Ambassador Won Bernstorff has
pointed out that several times the
British merchantmen have attempted
to ram submarines, and that so long
as the present British regulations re,
main in force the submarines are In
too great danger to stop en- armed
liner for the purpose of search. An
impasse. therefore, is apparently
created.

PLAN IMPROVEMENTS
AT PRISON FARM

The Prison commission. together
with Warden Dickerson, is giving
serious consideration to the reclaim
ing of about 400 acres of land, now

The plan under advlsement is to dig
a drain ditch, with levee on the river
side to prevent overlooking from that
source, all of which can be done by
convict labor. Necessary borings and
surveys will be undertaken ut once to

scheme and If 1t proves feasible. after

1t can be suppressed, for its eradi-
cation has been successfully demon
strated, BY the strict enforcement
OF the muzzling orders for dogs by
the central authorities in Great Britain
the disease was stamped out in Eng.
land itself In 1900 and In the United
Kingdom Great Britain and Ireland in
1902.
The work of it's eradication was
materially helped by the insular po-
sition of those islands and by the alb
sence OF wild animals. Similar repres.
sive measures are not so easy of exc
cution in this western country, be-
cause OF the great number of wild car
nivorous animals and the extent of
their stamping ground Concerted ac-
tion, however, over the wide area In.
volved, IL maintained and pushed, can
solve the task.
Desert men, hunters and rangers
who are best acquainted with the wild
life OF this country can render valu-
able assistance by suggestions aB to
the best methods of exterminating the
coyotes and taking part in active CAM
paign work. Systematic sections at
hunting, trapping and poisoning well
organized along with uniform bounty
as an auxiliary are considered means
capable of meeting the situation.

STATE OF NEVADA
CONVICTED IN COURT

By little slip OF the pen the State
of Nevada is placed in a serious po-
sition by verdict rendered in the
justice court of Tuscarora. The state
was convicted OF assault and battery
and it may require a supreme court
decision to get the body polite out OF
Just what procedure is necessary 10
relieve the legal ENHANCEMENT has not
yet been determined, as the disciples
Of Blackstone declare that there is no
precedent TO follow in the case. Some
suggest an indefinate stay of eXecu-
ton, others an appeal 10 the board Of
pardons, and still others, an appeal
for executive clemency. None of these
will answer, however, as the courts
and the governor are a part OF the
commonwealth, and il would be un-
constitutional for them TO sit on their
own case. The situation Is desperate,
and unless some great legal light can
rise to the occasion the state may be
on the inside looking out through bars
of steel some fine morning.
The complication arose from the re-
cent Emmett Johnson case, in which
the accused was arrested for assault
and battery. and in which the follow
ing verdict was rendered:
awe, the jury, in the case of
Emmet Johnson VS.. The State of
Nevada, find the defendant
guilty"
So there you are. The state has
been found guilty, and in the natural
process of law must go to jail unless
some loop hole be found through
which escape can be effected.
Another question arises. jail of
sufficient capacity for 100000 souls
and where will we get our eats while
in durance vile?
An all-night session of the local bar
association failed to disclose an
avenue of escape from the situation
and the only conclusion reached by
the legal lights at a late hour today
is that we are in a condition expressed
| in the latin term "hellofafiX"
The only hope at present is fol
everyone to Immediately skip out and
remain until the statute of Limitation
shall have debarred further operation
But in that case we would be fugitives
