PANHANDLER ORDERED OUT
OF TOWN BY CITY MARSHAL

A man giving the name of Sam
Mcyey was collared on the streets
by City Marshal Smitten last Satur-
day for begging. MeVey's excuse
for pleading aims was that he was
troubled with rheumatism and want
ed the money to pay for treatments.
He effected a decided limp and car
ried ,cane but displayed remark
able agility in getting on the train
when the city marshal took him to
the station to see him off.
Panhandlers and pedlers have
never bothered Fallon very much
but the incident of last week re-
minds us that citizens can avoid be-
ing imposed upon by directing such
people to the secretary of the cham
ber of commerce or the city marshal
who will have their propositions in
vestigated and If no objection is
found they will be furnished with
proper credentials. No worthy per-
son in need of assistance will be
badly treated here but imposters
should learn in short order that this
is no field for their activities.

request the state commissions join

ence was adjourned with the under
standing that the carriers were to

COUNTY AND CITY OFFICERS
TO ENFORCE ORDINANCE

AS result of complaints made by
various individuals that unmuzzled
dogs are permitted to run at large,
while there is danger of ANIMALS be-
ing infected with rabies, attention is
called to an ordinace that was
passed by the county commissioners
In 1916 and which is still in effect,
This ordinance requires all dogs
running at large either in town or
in the country to be securely muz-
zled with a wire muzzle and directs
the county and city officers to shoot
or otherwise dispose of all dogs run
ming at large and not so muzzled.
The county commissioners at their
last meeting directed that this ordi-
nance be rigidly enforced now aud
in the future when it appears that

Hunters To Destroy
Predatory Animals
Federal, State and County Funds
Sufficient to Employ Two Hunt
ers Rest of Year

1t has been decided by the board
of county commissioners to make
use in Churchill county of the state
and federal appropriations for the
destruction of predatory animals. On
account of the prevalence of rabies
among the coyotes it is particularly
desirable to rid the county of these
animals. An appropriation of $500
for this purpose was made by the
county some time ago and an inquiry
received from E. r. Sands of Reno,
biological assistant in the bureau OF
biological survey, requesting advise
as to where hunters are most need
ed at this time, it being the inten-
tion to put two hunters at the job
at once. Mr.. Sands advises that the
funds now available are sufficient
to employ two hunters for the re-
mainder of the year.
The work in this county will be
under the direction of the county
rabies board, the members being C.
e. Kent of Saltwater and H. E.
Smith of the Island district.
The bureau of biological survey
is also planning to assist this coun-
ty in rodent control work. The pois-
oning of gophers will be their prin-
cipal activity in this county.

Pittman Fights
Drainage Expense
Introduces Bill Providing for Ex-
pense of Draining Indian
Lands

A copy of Senate Bill 1884 has
been received by this Office. This is
bill Authorizing an appropria.
tion to meet proportionate expenses
of providing drainage system for
Paiute Indian lands in the State OF
Nevada within the Newlands recla-
nation project of the Reclamation
Service
1t was introduced In the Senate
on April 3rd by Senator Pittman and
was referred to the committee on
Indian affairs. The bill is in the
exact language of the committee
amendment to the Interior Depart
ment appropriation bill which was
knocked out of the bill by the con-
ference between the two houses.
In a letter to a friend received
here about the same date, Senator
Pittman has this to say In connec-
tion with the introduction of the
bill: IF we can get report i'm
mediately from the committee on
Indian affairs, l think l can pass il
through the Senate by unanimous
consent on presentation of the re-
port because the amendment which
ly by the Senate before. You will
understand that the appropriation
bill as IL came from the House had
no provision in 1T providing for the
payment Of part of the drainage ex-
penses by the Indians. The Senate
committee put In the amendment
when the bill came over to the Sen
ate. After the bill had passed the
Senate 1t went into conference be-
tween the two Houses and the House
conferees would not agree to the
amendment II pass the bill
through the Senate then we will
have to use all the influence we can
bring to bear to pass il through the
House."
As one OF the dredgers is working
at present in the vicinity of the
Indian lands north of saltwater,
and will soon be ready to excayate
a drain that will comprise a portion
of the work intended to drain the
Indian lands. 1t is hoped that Sena-
tor Pittman will succeed in getting
early and favorable action on the
proposed appropriation. Otherwise
the Reclamation Service would eth
er have to abandon this portion of
the drainage system depriving quite
large number of homesteads In
that vicinity of much needed drain
age or the payment covering the ex-
pense of the work would have to
be deducted from the sums set
apart to cover expense of drainage
of other portions of the project.
