indian BABY WAS
DROWNED IN DITCH

PARADISE VALLEY, April T.
Sheep shearing is on here, a crew OF
Indians having sheared the flock OF
Domingo Bideguren last Friday and
Saturday. Joe Gastanaga began to-
day. Some trouble has prevailed
over wages, the Indians demanding
the same as last year, Is cents per
head, with board. This seems to have
been settled satisfactorily.
Considerable excitement occurred
at the mill last Friday. where the
shearing crew was working. upon the
disappearance of a t~wo-year-old In
dian baby of the Siwash family. The
little one wandered away from camp
and II was some time before 1t was
missed. 1t was traced to the mill
ditch. Finally its body was discov-
cred. drowned In the ditch. 1t was
the youngest child of Ruth Siwash,
who died the past winter. 1t was a
bright little tot and a great favorite
with all the white people who nursed
the family during the late epidemic.
A good crowd attended the dance
at Auditorium Hall last Friday even

GOVERNORS PROCLAMATION
FOR BIRDDAY AND ARBORDAY

Governor Boyle's proclamation of
March IL designates April IL as Ar
Dor Day and Bird Day, in accordance
with a custom followed in Nevada
during recent years. He says: "The
observance of Arbor Day and Bird
Day in Nevada is so well established
that no especial argument is needed
for it now. l call attention. however,
and with approval, to plans taking
shape in other states to plant trees
on Arbor Day in particular memory
of those who fell in war, but whose
deeds will survive and grow in our
regard as time goes on"

SPECIAL ELECTION
CALLED FOR MAY I3

So far as appearances indicate to
the layman, Humboldt and Pershine
counties are framing up for a long
drawn-out legal battle over the county
division matter. An expected blow
fell yesterday afternoon when County
Clerk Davey and Sheriff Springer re-
ceived kilograms from William Ken
nett, clerk of the Supreme Court,
notifying them of proceedings in Car
son City regarding the county fight.
The telegram to the county clerk is
as follows:
Alternative writ of prohibition Ia
case of County of Pershing and others
versus Sixth Judicial District Court
issued this date. r%eturnable April IL,
prohibiting you from taking any ac-
ton in case of Humboldt County VS..
w. c. Pitt and others. (Signed) VIM.
Kenneth, Clerk of Supreme Court of
Nevada"
This telegram, of course, refers 10
Judge Thomas c. Hart, who yesterday
morning, sitting in Winnemucca,
leard and denied a motion to dismiss
he case filed last Thursday by Hum
joldt county against Pershing county.
The defense then moved for the dis
lissal of the temporary restraining
order issued by Judge Hart last
thursday, and this also vas denied.
The motions for Pershing county
we're made by F. H. Norcross and G.
Il. Mcintosh of Reno. T. A. Brandon
md l.. o. Hawkins presented the case
Of Humboldt county.
The writ of prohibition issued by
he Supreme Court will prevent Judge
dart's hearing any more of the Hum
natter is settled in the upper court.
The Supreme Court likewise issued
yesterday a writ of mandamus com
handing the board of county commits
sioners to comply with Section 16 of
the law creating Pershing county.
This is the section relating to appor-
tionment of taxation and division Of
monies.
T. A. Brandon and Warren & Haw-
kins are busy preparing the answer Of
Humboldt county, which is to be filed
in Supreme court next Monday. 1t
cannot, of course, be known what date
may be set by the Supreme Court for
a hearing of these matters. 1t is
hoped an early date may be named.
At a meeting of the board of county
commissioners held last night, a spe-
cial election to take advantage of the
referendum law Of 1915 was ordered
to be held May 13 next. The orders
from the Supreme Court do not, as
some have supposed. interfere with
the holding of this election. That is
not saying, however, that some action
to that end may not be attempted by
Pershing county.

Live Stock Must Be
Kept From Run
ming At Large

The law prohibiting the running at
large of live stock, commonly spoken
OF as the ''no-fence" law, became eff
fcctive in Pinellas county May i. For
many years efforts have been made to
get such law on the books, but the
cattle men have always been able to
prevent it until the present time. 1t
is now unlawful for live stock to run
at large. The following notice has
been received from the board of coun-
ty commissioners with a request for
its publications
Chapter 1873, Sec. 3, Laws of Florida
Any person may take up, and it
shall be the duty of the sheriff or any
constable, or any magistrate, to take
up or cause to be taken up and inn
pounded any horse, mule, COW, swine.
OF other grazing animal so running or
roaming at large within the above de-
sclibed territory in the said Pinclas
county, and such impounder may de
mand the sum of fifty cents for each
sue, Horse, mule, COW swine or other
grazing animal for each day such
horse, mule, COW, swine or other graz
ing animal is kept impounded, and the
sum of fifty cents for taking and i'm
pounding, and the person having
charge of such stock is hereby re-
quired to feed, water and give such
other care as is necessary to keep
such stock in the same condition as
when impounded.

these differences. The comparatively
small number of our wounded, scatter
ed as they must be, throughout the
vast extent of our country, necessi-
tates a different form of administra-
ton from that OF European countries
with their larger nUmbc~ of wounded
men crowded into smaller areas. To
meet this need, the federal board has
established fourteen regional offices,
so that disabled soldiers may obtain
information and assistance as near
their homes as possible.
The armistice was dec jared before
the necessity arose with us of calling
into service any of the physically I'M
fit. Our army was made up to the
last of picked men, while our allies
were forced, because of their longer
period Of service and. consequently
heavier losses, to call in those who
were over age or below physical
standard. To refrain young men,
many of them unmarried, is an carrier
thing to do than to refrain older men,
who have family murdens to carry.
This may be one explanation of the
feet that the federal board has not en-
coUntered the problem, which England
and France confess to have been their
most serious one in carrying out their
plans for re-educa+ion, the necessity
of persuading men to take training
There is a certain eagerness among
the boys of the A. F. F. TO be trained.
The difficulty is to provide the most
suitable kind of training. The content
of the courses provided differ accord
ing to the needs of the various coun-
tries. Italy with her large numbers
needign elementary o'''"st;on must
provide very different courses from
those countries where highly technical
and specialized training IS no"dod
However, with all these variations
in details, the spirit which dominates
ell the countries in their efforts is that
their different interests and varied
needs must al lead to enc "o~ no.
achievement. that Of giving back to
these wounded men that economic in
and social self-respect
without which a man must find his life
inadequate.

the Florida legislature by Mr.. Sans
of Volusia county, having for it's pur-
pose requiring every owner of any
pistol, repeating rife or repeating
shot gun to procure license to entitle
him to have such an arm in his pos
session. The carrying or having in
ones possession of such an arm with
out the license is punishable by a fine
of 800 or Imprisonment for thirty
days as maximum penalty. The bill
goes on to recite that license may be
procured from the county commission
ers at any of their regular or special
meetings, such license to run for two
years, but that every person securing
such license will be required to give
a bond in the sum of 500 with sure
ties approved by the county commits
siOner. The bill also prohibits the
issuance of licenses to carry or have
in ones possession repeating rifles or
shot guns to persons who are not
twenty-one years of age.
We believe such law would be I'M
just and unfair to thousands of sports
men in Florida now owning and using
repeating rifles and guns. 1t would be
a matter of considerable annoyance to
them to be compelled to go to the
county seat and go through the for
mality Of making a bond which in
many cases might be a matter of some
difficulty, and then have to secure a Ii
cense to say nothing of the fees at
tendant upon such a transaction.
Moreover, we feel that rather than
discourage boys under twenty-one
years of age they should be encourage
ed to become proficient in the use of
arms ed the matter of handling
them safely. The war just ended, in
which SO many of our boys and young
men gave such splendid account Of
themselves on the battlefelds of
France, should emphasize the necessi-
ty of teaching the youth of America
to become expert in the handling of
arms and we all know that the war
was not won with single-shot rifles.
We believe that the proposed bill dis
eliminates against the boy of today
who will be the sportsman of tomor-
row and the soldier of the future,
should another national emergency
arise.
If you agree in principle with our
views we suggest that you immediate
ly write or wire our representative
or any representative that you may
have influence with or the state sena-
tor, pointing out the unfairness and
lack of necessity of the proposed leg
iS'ation, asking them to oppose the
passage of House Bill No. 422, refer
ring to it by number in order that
it may be identified. Prompt action
should be taken if you are interested
in the matter, as the bill is now be-
fore the legislature.
