FORMER NEVADA EDITOR
WRITES WESTERN FICTION

John L. Considine, ex-warden Of
the Nevada state prison and a for
mer newspaper man in this state,
has a special article in a recent
number of the Western Magazine
of the story of "the first train
robbery" which happened about
four miles west of Reno on Oc-
tober 81, 1870, 81 years ago. After
the robbery one of the highwaymen
was captured in Sardine valley,
south of Loyalton; another, Par
sons, was taken in a Loyalton, Cal
ifornia hotel and another was TAX
en- at Sierraville. The officer who
captured these train robbers was
James Kinkaid, young deputy
sheriff of Reno, who at the time
was only 81 years of age. He af-
terward became one of the prom
inent citizens of Nevada. The rob-
berry was committed by nine men
and 100000 was taken. The mon
ey was all recovered and the BAN
dts were sent to prison for long
terms.

CoTT CARRIES ON JUST
THE SAME DESPITE STORM

The Goldfield Tribune reports
as follows:
"Snow five feet deep on the
summit between Tonopah and Man
haitian is reported by William Nc
Clure, editor of the Manhattan
Magnet, who arrived here yester-
day after six and one-half hours
trip between the two Nye county
towns. The snow, he said, is %
inches deep on the level in Manhat-
tan, 10 inches falling in the storm
of Friday night. From Spanish
Springs to Tonopah there is no
snow and there is no snow at
Round Mountain. Then the trials
of the editor in the far west-the
roof blew off the Magnet office.
But Mcclure, undaunted, printed
the paper with fires burning around
the press to keep him warm. Then
the press broke before he had the
edition off but still he went through
with it and on his arrival here
yesterday he produced a copy to
show what a real Nevada editor can
do in the face of seemingly insur-
mountable obstacles.

AUTO AND CANINE ARE
ABANDONED BY PARTY

Leaving on the desert car they
had rented in Tonopah and locking
in the abandoned L. v. T. STATION
at Cuprite their pet airdale, two
men and two women took the train
for the south at Stonewell Siding,
supposedly Thursday morning and
nothing has been heard from them
since, says the Goldfield Tribune.
They rented the car in Tonopah
and passed through here Wednes-
day en- route to Las Vegas, they
said. Nothing more was thought
of them until Thursday night, when
j. E. C. Williams reached here and
told Sheriff Box of seeing the car
and the dog. The sheriff and Mills
went to Cuprite yesterday and fol-
lowed the tracks of the four from
the car to Stonewall. Mills brought
the dog here and he is caring for
it. The dog being left in the sta
ton is regarded as the most pc
culiar part of the incident as it is
pointed out that the average des-
ert man would not desert his pet
in this way.

ALL GRAZING FEES MUST
BE PAID BY MARCH 1ST

The forest supervisor at Austin,
this state, has received the follow
ing information concerning payment
of deferred grazing fees for the
season 1921, from the Washington
office:
GAIL persons who do not pay in
cash for 1921 grazing fees or sub
NIT a proposition Of settlement and
a note by March 1, will be ex-
pected to pay the full forage val
ue. This will be determined in the
usual manner in grazing trespass
cases on the number of stock ac-
tually grazed for the length of
time they actually grazed, at the
minimum rate of four cents per
day per head for cattle and one
fourth cent per day per head for
sheep. Those who desire to give
notes not later than March 1, will
be charged the grazing fees plus
five per cent additional and will
be expected to pay interest at the
rate of one-half Of one per cent
per month from December l on the
grazing fee,s but not on the amount
of the penalty"

GREAT SUM PAID
SOLDIER RELIEF

The sum of $4s9, 100000 was
spent in the past year by the
United States government in the
care of its former service men, &C.
cording to announcement by the
veterans bureau.
This vast amount was expended
on approximately 100000 veterans
who served America during the war
either on foreign or American soil.
Not only did the government, in
its rehabilitation program, pay its
veterans insurance but also placed
them in hospitals, universities or
trade schools, or furnished them
with the opportunity for practical
experience in scores of occupations.
In addition to the educational ia
cilities Uncle Sam provided for his
wounded ex-service men; he also
paid them living wage during the
period of rehabilitation.
According to Director of Veter-
ans Bureau Forbes, the govern
ment in the last year provided vo-
cational training for 100000 vet
Grams, had s89,797 insurance hold
ers on the roll, which incidentally,
equals the number Of beneficiaries
of the largest insurance company
in the world; had $4,000 soldiers
patients in government institutions
and hospitals and handled over
245,000 claims of ex-service men.
A Cleanup" campaign, designed
to reach every disabled veteran in
the country who was not satisfied
with a disability rating; to reach
those whose claims were pending
and to establish contact with those
disabled veterans who, although en-
titled to compensation, had not
made application for it, was one
of the first undertakings of the
veterans bureau. More than $4,000
claims were handled as result of
this campaign, the bureau states,
and less than 5000 Of these claims
remain pending adjudication.
The first government-owned vo-
cational training school was estab-
lished during the year at Chilli
Gothic, o., where ex-service men are
being laughs trades and some forms
of agriculture. This school, it is
explained, is still in the experiment
tai stage, but if it is proved a sue
cess similar schools will be estab-
lished throughout the country, ac-
cording to the bureau.

TOUCHED FlREMAN'S HEART
WHEN HE SAW PUSSY CAT

An old mother cat got caught
in an apartment house fire with her
four kittens in Brooklyn. A fireman
named Smith was at work in the
thick of the smoke when he felt a
soft and persistent rubbing against
his foot. The smoke was so thick
that he could not see the floor dis
tinctly but he bent over and found
the object was cat. She wasn't
worried so much about herself but
she had her whole family-four kit
tens--with her in a pasteboard box
which she dragged ahead of the
flames. The trouble was that she
could not get the box downstairs
without spilling the contents. So
Smith made the rescue and was
badly cut in doing so.

SOUTHERN EDITORS ABOUT
READY FOR DEADLY DUEL

Billy Booth, of the Tonopah b.
nanzo opened his flood gates of
vitriol the other day and paid a
well deserved compliment to the ed
itor of the Clark County Review.
The reader of understanding will
agree with the conclusion that Cork
hill should have been punished for
contempt of court through the pub
publication of rotten comment dur
ing the course of criminal trials
in the Clark county district court
Mr.. Booths comment is so good
that it should be read by every
man, woman and child in the
state and follows:
"Over in Clark county it is evil
dent that the newspapers-and we
presume that the papers are spokes-
men for the people-decide the
guilt of a person long before the
evidence has been introduced at
the trial of the defendant.
"In the case of a man named
Nick w. Dugan, charged with MUIR
der, the editor of the Clark County
Review, published at Las Vegas,
comes out editorially and pronoun-
ced the defendant guilty of murder
leaving it for the jury to decide
what penalty should be imposed.
Here is an extract from the edi-
torial in question:
AS this side Of this paper
goes to press, the Dugan MUIR
der trial is still in progress. It
is anticipated that it will go to
the jury about o'clock today.
Dugan cannot be acquitted, and
it is merely matter for the
jury to determine whether he
is guilty of murder in the first
degree; murder in the second
degree or manslaughter.
The Bonanza continues to ex-
plain:
"a few hours later the jury re-
ported to the court that it had
agreed upon a verdict, finding the
defendant guilty of manslaughter.
"How would you like to live in
community where you were
judged, upon being accused Of
crime, before party of your
peers had decided the issue? 1t
looks as though all semblance of
law was being disregarded and that
the minds of the people were be-
ing poisoned by paper that is
supposed to uphold the dignity of
a community. Such motives on
the part of a paper should be con-
demned by the good people of
town or city in no uncertain terms,
otherwise those living in other Sec
tions of the state will conclude that
Clark County residents do not be-
lieve in justice and fair play.
"Of all the rot we ever read in
a newspaper touching upon a news
item of the day, the so-called des-
criptive report of the Dugan trial
is entitled to first prize. 1t evil
IDENTIFY was written by some person
who imagines that he or she is even
bigger than the court or jury. Silly
in the extreme was the report which
consumed the greater part of the
four pages of the paper and they
who had the patience to wade
through the rot must have suffered
from the nauseating effects"

block from the fire the engine

the trouble and confusion the hre

did emerge with letterst of the

like C. o. d. and r. u. m. they
were very much shocked To- find
this little old globe Of ours had

is SO perplexing we intend to- skip

is more than scientists do when
they're stuck for an answer.
Science asserts there was no
such place as the Garden Of Eden.
They claim man was originally
an amoeba, and II this is 50 some
thing should be done about It.
An amoeba Is q bit Of living
