ANDERSON........ eee ee Publishers Published semi-weekly, Monday and Friday, at Nevada City, California, and entered as mail matter of the second class in the postoffice at Nevada City, under Act of Congress, March 3, 1879. SUBCRIPTION RATES One year,Editoial Circuit Rider By UNITED PRESS President Roosevelt's action in setting forth: his views on _ araments and peace is a message to 54 nations is regarded by some California editors as a courageous attempt to promoting world harmony. Others, however, while designating the move as commendable, recall the unsuccessful efforts of Woodrow Wilson 15 years ago and express doubt that any desirable results will be accomplished. Record, “‘as direct and simple as those he has given for domestic consumption, is specifically addressed to the rulers of the nations. But its plea for success of the economic and disarmament conferences as a means of affecting ‘the happiness, the prosperity, and the very, lives of the men, women and children who inhabit the whole world,’ is a message for the peoples rather than their leaders. If it reaches the rank and file without distortion by governmental heads, the appeal of this new leader in world affairs should have real influence.”’ “The President’s proposal is neither a "holier-than-thou’ attitude nor an unwarranted assumption of the power his country holds in the affairs of the world,” remarked the E] Centro Imperial Valley Press. “‘It is nothing more than a statemen that right is right, that peace is right and that war is wrong, and an invitation to the nations of the world to recognize his truth ad abide by it.” According to the Merced Sun-Star, “wherever his message reaches it will become the ralyying cry for enlightened millions who see all modern civilization now at the edge of an engulfing crevasse, who would end this cycle of international bloodshed and misery and oppression by striking at the economic cause which lies beneath. In most lands, unfortunately, the message will fall short of its real object. Only in England and America among all the great nations does freedom of speech and of the press still remain to the degree that such an utterance may be sure of its goal.”’ “Maybe the dark forces that have been gaining in strength of late will not give heed to those words,” said the Salinas Index Journal, ‘‘but at least this country can have pride in the knowledge that the hand of its president was decisively raised in the hope of averting disaster. Much remains to be done if the dream of peace is to be realized. More and more does it become apparent that our ‘‘splendid isolation’ from the. family of nations must be abandoned if we are to'exert effective, continued influence to prevent war, and to bring amity and understanding in time of peace to all nations.” “Some will critize and say that it will ultimately be the means of bringing about a war,’ comments the San Jose News. “That is not the intent or purpose. He plainly states that any nation refusing to enter into his agreement immediately goes on record as being against peace and, therefore, the other nations will know how to deal with that particular nation. Warning that “‘the president needs to watch his step,” the Sacramento Bee adds: “Once our country is involved in the turmoils and conflicting aims and purposes of the old world, no one can foresee the sea of troubles into which the ship of state will be _plunged.”’ : ‘COME!

NOVATE THAT OLD MATTRESS REE‘ bid ve ' NEVADA CITY het ‘The American executive's message,” said the Stockton “next day, OF CONDEMNED STACRAMENTO, .May 22—(UP) —As a fabricator of strange excuses to put off executions, Governor J. Rolph probably has no peer in the United States. Flimsy and often humorous reasons are advanced by the chief executive as reasons for granting reprieves to condemned _ criminals, awaiting in a death cell the final call of the executioner. Last reagon the governor offered anniversary. Albert Fuller was’ scheduled to die at San Quentin June 9. Suddenly the governor recalled the anniversary. “Tt wouldnt be right to hang a man on my brother’s anniversary,’’ he observed seriously, and promptly set the execution date ahead a week. Here are a tew sample explanations of why reprieves were granted in recent cases: : Because the execution was set for St. Patrick’s day. ' Because the day set for the hanging was the condemned man’s birthday. Because an execution was schedul‘ed for Good Friday. Because the bank holiday was in effect. . Because the governor had difficulty in sleeping. (This ‘time ‘he arose at 2 a. m. after tossing fitfully in his bed for hours, came down to his office, and after discussing and deliberating over the matter, granted the reprieve.) : Because an accomplice had Seon granted a reprieve. : : Practically every murderer can expect at least a 30-day reprieve. The first extension is granted for a logical reason. The governor announces he wants additional time in which to investigate the case. It is the second and third and so on when the peculiar reasons are advanced. If there were. an execution every week, there would be little business. transacted in the governor’s office. The chief executive frets and stews and worries constantly. Last few nights before any condemned man steps “off the deep end,” likely as not the governor cannot sleep. If and when an anti-capital punish-. ment bill is ever passed, the happiest man in the state will be the governor. Continued from page one ary, unemployment insurance and criminal syndicalism’. bills. The last named would have provided that mere membership in an organization designed to overthrow the government would not be constituted a criminal offense. The legislature did, however, pass the pari-mutuel horse race betting bill only to have it vetoed by the governor. The measure was then passed again in the form_of a constitutional amendment to be submitted to the people. It also passed ‘‘yellow dog’’ bill after first amneding out its anti-injunction clause. COUNTY ROAD TAX RELIEF The secondary state highway bill whereby 6,600 miles of existing and contemplated road, would be added to the state highway system passed. The measure also provided cities would receive an additional quarter of a cent of the gas tax for street _repair and maintenance. : Outside of the reduced budget, primary economies included the $4,500,000 biennial reduction in state was his brother William’s wedding . CAMPTONVILLE REPORTS BUILDING ACTIVITY CAMPTONVILLE, May 18—Considerable activity is noted locally in the building line. Ross C. Zaring, whose home was destroyed by .fire during the snow, is erecting a new modern home on his lot on upper Main street, which will be a very good addition to the town. H. C. Harmon, who formerly resided here, returned a short time ago, purchased a lot on Main St., from Mrs. Grace Peterson and will start shortly in erecting a modern bungalow in which to live. He has traveled -all over the country and thinks this place the most‘ideal of any he has found to live in. The Board of trustees of Camptonville Union School District have Lee Bullington, local carpenter, with a helper in erecting a new foundation and porch on the house of their acerage on Main street. Mrs. Kate resides in the house. BOND DEBT OF COUNTIES DROPS SACRAMENTO, May 22—(UP)— For the first time in years the bonded indebtedness. of California counties is on the down grade. Accumulation of financial transactions compiled by Ray L. Riley, state controller, shows that the bonded indebtedness of California counties decreased from $304,632,034.78 in 1930 to $291,842,813.97 las year after a steady increase had been shown in the bonded debt which amounted to only $50,841,291 in 1915. Taxpayers of Nevada county are faced with a total bonded debt, including outstanding county and district bonds, amounting to $143,750 the report revealed, While . counties apparently are learning the danger of such debts, the same eannot be said of the state and municipal governments. The bonded indebtedness of cities, for instance, increased from $413,665,832.34 in 1930, to $449,560,927, despite the fact that receipts fell off in the same period from $296,582,509 to $224,587,220. Days of Gold By BEHTHA JOY DELLEA In the days of old; The time, the new found Gold, The Pioneers came to hold, Some were rather old; But all carried a large heavy load; And many a thing they had sold To come out West and dig for Gold Men that were rugged and bold; And not afraid of storm or cold. Beside the clear running streams, Stood the tired drinking teams, And scattered ‘here and there; Under the shade of great gian trees; Were little children fair, And many cabins too; Behind the hidden valleys were glorious views; Not only Mines; but Historic old Shrines; That was in the days of old, The time, the new found Gold. It is still the same today; Men with packs have come to stay.; They come from city’s far away, To: seek this hidden Gold; Men that will] dig and work And count not time or Day, Or other duties shirk; Willing to rest-on_a_bed of. hay, For the pleasure to earn and hold this Gold. employes’ salaries, the drastic cut in superior judges’ salaries and abolition of over 40 jobs held by special state attorneys. The session was complicated by a} running fight between the legisla. ture and the governor. This was in. tensified by the Inman investigating . committee reports . which charged . maladministration in several state . departments. Climax of this phase . of the legislative-executive came when first the governor answered the Inman committee and, the the committee members bitterly criticised on the senate floor Rolph and his administration. For
the first time in over 40 years, the legislature overrode a ”° governor’s veto. Three county government bills he had disapproved were passed despite his disapproval. Fundamental differences between senate and assembly killed much legislation. The upper house was rural, . conservative and almost fanaticaiy economical. The lower house was liberal, progressive, urban-controlled ‘ 5 < cS . oer ere £4: I Im i si f bea MES Bre sits cat Ree ee .
