ANOTHER PRINTER
LADY IN THIS CITY

Winnemucca has another lady edi-
tor. printer and publisher in the per-
son of Miss Bra Ne. an instructor at
the high school. Miss Bra Me pub
lished a newspaper at Farmington
New Mexico. for period of three
years. and that she represented the
interests Of the people Of that COM
munity is evidenced by the fact she
was finally silenced by resort to libel
suits. This Is favorite method OF
getting" an aggressive editor. While
he or she may be absolutely in the
right and not guilty of libel. still the
long processes of law and attendant
enormous costs finally put such hola
In the bankroll the printshop lie
crippled. the editor discouraged and
broke. This is more difficult in Me-
vada. however. the law providing the
loser In such case shall pay costs.
The fact that Miss Bra Me is
printer OF no mean ability was
brought out yesterday when the
Block wv" Society Of the high-school
wanted some dodgers struck OF in
hurry to help advertise the benefit

night. The proceeds are to be used to
pay for Pthletic uniforms.
The committee in charge of this
particular activity. of which Miss Bra
Me was one, was informed that a
printer who had been employed by
The Silver State had left town several
days ago without saying goodbye. and
for that reason the work could not be
given immediate attention. 1t was
then that Miss Bra Me volunteered in
formation that she is a printer and
would do the work II permitted. The
fact that she hadn't forgotten how"
was attested when, after feeding press
for a few moments. she set the motor
to a speed that made the press go at
respectable speed any pressfeeder
would be proud OF.

Co. CLERK SUED FOR
LARGE sum MONEY

Another chapter In the now cele.
brated case Of A. NJ. Latta against
C. r. Squires was written when the
First National Bank. through its at
torney. Thomas A. Brandon. filed suit
against County Clerk J. W. Davey and
Sheriff George A. Brady for recovery
OF $4,000. which 1t is alleged is un-
lawfully held by Clerk Davey. The
bank Is acting on assignment of claim
by Squires and the introduction OF the
three parties introduced by the sait
which was nled yesterday afternoon
now makes a total of six litigants In
the case.
The case OF Latta against Squires
started several months ago after
Squires and ex-Sheriff Springer had
taken $4,000 from the person of Latta
then employed by Squires as q gro
Gerry clerk. This part Of the action
has mover been ofiicially recorded. but
1t was generally supposed and in fact
alleged Latta had appropriated the
money from the proceeds OF Squires
business, largely while the latter was
in the East securing medical atten-
ton.
Soon after the money had been
taken from Latta he entered agree
ment with Warren & Hawkins, local
attorneys. whereby he would pay to
them half Of all money recovered from
Squires. Suits were filed and q writ
of attachment issued against Squires
grocery store. To prevent levy Of the
writ Squires placed a. cash bond OF
s1o. ZOO. the amount OF the suits. in
the hands of the sheriff. who turned
1t over to the county clerk.
Then Latta and Squires got together
and settled independently OF Warren
& Hawkins. and Latta filed dismissal
OF the suit Warren & Hawkins then
fled q petition to intervene. claiming
an interest In the case because of the
dBTccuicut l<1tta uou uinoo win thSAhh
to pay ffty per cent Of the amount
realized. This petition to intervene
was heard by Judge Callahan and he
decided against Warren q Hawkins.
A week ago Il was announced the
csse had been appealed to the su-
prone court by Warren & Hawkins
In tho meantime thsy had served mo-
tice on Clerk Davey he and his bonds
men would be held responsible for the
$1,000 and Davey has refused to re-
turn the money pending receipt Of a
court order.
A startling array Of legal papers
have been filed In the case. and with
the six litigants now involved 1t ap-
pears matters are to become even
more complicated. Latta has left the
city and whether he will return In
case he Is needed is not known.
