HEARST SET BACK
BY NEVADA COURT

H. c. Oastler, Chairman Humboldt
County Council of National Defense,
Winnemucca We'll, boys, the fight is
on. Hearst has applied in the federal
court for an Injunction against our
order. Hearing is set for October 4th.
The court said the council of defense
is a governmental agency and refused
an injunction or restraining order un-
til after hearing.
Latest war news: Bulgaria has
quit and Turkey is expected to quit
any minute. This, with Hearst, makes
three down. Set 'em up in the other
alley.
LENNON"
The above telegram, received this
morning. is from H. A. Lennon, direc-
tor of the Nevada State Council of
National Defense, and is in connection
with the application for temporary
restraining order and permanent i'm
junction preventing the state council
of defense and the several county
councils from interfering in any way
with the circulation or sale of the
Hearst publications in Nevada, which
was made in the federal court in Car
son City yesterday afternoon. The
injunction suit was filed by Francis
G. Wilson, an attorney of Santa .Fe,
N. NJ, appearing for the Hearst
people.
The papers allege that the action
taken by the state council recently in
requesting all newsdealers and the
general public to cease handling or
buying Hearst publications was with
out authority of law and has wrought
an irreparable loss to the publishing
company.
A similar suit has been filed in New
Mexico against state and county coun-
ellis of defense, the councils in that
state taking action similar to that
taken in Nevada.
That the boycott is effective is
proven by the fact that Hearst publi-
cations are no longer being circulated
in Winnemucca and probably not in
the entire state.

toed the action of the general con
ference Of the church giving full
laity rights u women, and also re-
versed the change by the confer

measures must be submitted to the
annual conferences, and that not
until two-thirds of the annual con-
ferences voted for the changes could
the action of the general conference
be held constitutional.
A motion TO adhere to the action
OF the general conference on laity
rights for women was ruled out If
order by Bishop Hendrix, but on ap-
peal the motion was sustained and
the conference voted TO ratify its
former action. Both questions viii

Huns in Control
of Wheat, Coal
and Oil Fields

MOSCOW, May 15.-Through
the capture of Rostov on Don the
Germans have gained control of the
Caucasus, the grain districts in the
Donetz basin and the coal, iron and
oil fields. Northern Russia is cut
off from the Caucasus, excepting for
a single railroad running through
Tartan. in the southern part of
the government of Saratov which
the Germans now are threatening.
Coupled with the fall of SebaSto-
pol and the overthrow of the Ukraine
rada and the establishment in the
Ukraine of a bourgeOisie government
wholly under German domination.
the capture of Rostov on Don has
created great uneasiness in Moscow
and Petrograd. A German advance
into central Russia is generally
feared, and the removal of the capt.
tai to Yekaterinburg, in the Ural
mountains. is being discussed.
Germany's overthrow Of the
Ukraine government, with which it
had made peace, is regarded by
north Russia as a step toward it's oc-
cupation. Within few weeks the
future of Petrograd and Moscow
probably will be determined, as it is
considered that the soviet govern
ment either must submit to German
domination or retreat eastward and
prepare for a defense against the in
Vaders.
