EUREKANs RETURN FROM ELY

The Eureka attorneys and those in
terested in cases before the District
Court of White Pine County have all
returned home from Ely. The trial
of the case of Mrs. Kate p. Smith of
Strawberry. Nevada. against the Mar
cos Legarra Company, suit brought
to recover damages for a breach of
contract or lease made by Mrs. Smith
to the Legarra Company for the priv
ilege of watering sheep in defined
area. was concluded with the excep-
tion Of briefs to be filed within ten
days by defendant, with FIVE days
given plaintiff to reply. The case of
William Laird against the Newark
Mill & Mining Company, suit for
the settlement of wages, etc., did
not come up for trial.
Both cattle and sheep seeem to
show an increase in numbers over
the Spring of 1920, probably 10% on
cattle and 20% on sheep.
AS to supply of young breeding
stock-a few more cattle but no more
sheep, too many old ewes held over
last Fall.
There doesn't seem to be any mar
ket here for cattle, sheep or wool and
every one is waiting.
Have not heard how sheep are
shearing. but 1 expect good quality
fleece of average weight. Lambing

their ability to secure its passage
by the House at this session despite
the existing Congressional jam.

was scheduled for today.
Republican Senator'S OF progressive
and independent tendencies expressed
themselves as extremely gratified at
the successful outcome OF the long,
bitter fight to place the meat packing
industry under a Federal live stock
commission.

publican Senators who lined up with
twenty-eight Democratic Senators in
support OF the bill on the final show

One of the amendments that VIII
be advanced will be the restoration
by Congress of the lump sum appro-
priation to the various institutions
for the care of children, instead of the
present mthod Of paying tn instltu-
tions only for such childrn as are
committed by the Board of Children's
Guardians. The institutions receive
a stated sum for each child legally
placed by the Board of Children's
Guardians, but no provision is now
made by Congress for the payment
for the keep of children left at the
institutions by persons who agree to
pay so much a month, but never re-
turn to pay anything.
FAIL TO KEEP WORD.
At ST. AIMS Founding Asylum. for
instance. there are at present hfty-
three children for whose care and
keep the institution receives no
money, the men and women who
placed the infants there having failed
TO keep their word to pay stated sum
each month. AS these children were
not committed by the Board of Chill
dren's Guardians, the board cannot be
held responsible for the payment OF
any money for their keep. At the
institution, some payment should be
made out OF public funds for the care
of these children.
The idea prevails in some quarters
that each of the charitable institu-
lions receives a substantial sum
from Congress each year. irrespec-
tive of whether children are commit
ted or not, but this is not a fact.
Each of the institutions is required
to actually earn every cent it receives
out of the appropriation. In the
event the institutions do not care Tor
sufficient children to consume the en-
tire appropriations so allotted, the re
mainder is turned back to the Treas
ury Department by the Board of
Children's Guardians, while, in the
meantime, the institutions are com
PEELED to care for a number of child
rem for whom parents are not paying.
LUMP SUM PROPOSED.
In some instances the cost to the i'm
stitutions for Keeping these free
children, not committed by the Board
of Children's Guardians, is more than
enough to consume the amount turn
ed back to the Treasury Department.
It is believed by the officials of the
Institutions that a more equitable
plan would be to pay the institutions
a lump sum each year for the care or
these virtually abandoned children,
or to restore the blanket appropria-
ton plan.
