Fourth of July at the Capital of the
greatest nation of earth didn't amount
TO much. except that the weather man
had one of his best days. He ex-
hibited with pride mercury column
reaching to los degrees at the street
kiosks, and it (now meaning the
weather, not the mercury was
sticky and the reader in Nevada
may place any desired adjective be-
fore the word sticky; nothing will
be too strong Relative humidity of
SO degrees seems very much like
warm bath to a desert rat; or at the
best like hot-room in a Turkish
bath. When a night of this sort of
stuff comes over Washington, people
wander about their homes and take
an occasional nap on the floor This
applies to natives as well as West
erners. Your correspondent has their
own testimony for it. And in the
morning after such a night, people
are cross. The evidence is prima
facie; 1t requires no testimony.
The initiatory branch of Congress
is supposed to take up its preliminary
struggle with the tariff" very soon
after noon today; Representatives
are engrossed with the subject. If
anything else is mentioned today it
is the coming of the new Congress-
woman from Illinois to sit beside
Representative Miss Alice Robertson
of Oklahoma, who declares she
doesn't know any good reason why
she is in Congress. but who has
created favorable impression never
theless. Nevada appears to be awake
as never before to the Importance of
tariff legislation as il affects indus
tries of the Sagebrush State. Hides
tungsten, quicksilver, and arsenic
tariffs are inquired into particularly
Nevada needs some tariff protee-
tion, a good many people admit. And
Congress needs to know a whole lot
about Nevada. 1t was related in these
letters how Congressman Arentz dis
played to Representatives a beautiful

The Ambassador from France was
not on the program. but he was there

Of these were yet wearing dressings
over wounds. The Marine Band ap-
peared at its very best, Introducing
cello and violin solos of highest or
der. The wife of General Feland was
soprano soloist and her wonderful
voice easily rose superior to the Ma

and wha. do you suppose it was the
audience liked and encored?-

rug made from the hide of Holstein
steer raised on his ranch, and told
them, I'VE have to throw such hides
away in Nevada" A recent letter
from George Russell Jr., of the Ne
vada Land and Livestock Associa-
tion, said, among other things tas
illustrating the point that Nevada
needs to buck up'o:
Il was very much surprised to
learn that so little effort had ever
been made to have a tariff placed
upon hides. Under present conditions
a hide is hardly worth picking up off
the ground Wishing to sell our
hides, the best offer we could get for
them was eight cents per pound (dry
hides). Our company also wishing
to purchase some leather, we were
quoted price of sixty-four cents to
tan the hides that we sold to the
tannery. 1t seems there must be
great amount of profiteering going on
somewhere"

Husband, as Master of
 Home, Is GuiltyifWife
 Breaks Law, SaysCourt

Lansing.-That man is responsible for the conduct of his wife, even to the extent of being punishable for crimes committed by her against his protest, is the gist of the supreme courts deci- sion Monday in the case of the people against John Sybsloo, of Benton county.
 Sybsloo's wife, Apna, installed a still in the cellar of their home, which she owned. The house was raided and marked money that detective had used in purchasing whisky was found in Mrs. Sybsloo's possession. The still was found in the cellar, together with a gallon of new whisky and barrel Of mash.
 Husband and wife were charged with violation of the liquor law. The wife pleaded guilty. Sybsloo stood trial, and evidence was produced to show that the wife had procured the still, that he had tried to dissuade her from using it and had no part in the traffic connected with it.
 The trial court instructed the Jury that if it were shown that he had known of the traffic in which, his wife was engaged in their home. and that if he had failed to use every reasonable means. as master of the house, to pre- vent her from carving on the illegal trade, he was jointly guilty. The fact that the wife owned the house did not modify the husbands mastery of it nor his duty to prevent his wife from using it for criminal business.
 The supreme court upholds this in- terpretation iof the law and confirms the husbands conviction,

 The statute which gives married woman a right to carry on a trade or business of her own account does not deprive husband of his common law right to regulate and control his own household, and he has the power to prevent his wife from using the house for illegal business or purposes.
 The court holds that the husband could escape responsibility for his wife's crime only bv using every req sonable means in his power to prevent her conUinuance Of criminal business, and that mere complaints, such as those testified to in this case, do not answer the purpose.
