VOLUME 50 Wednesday, March 26, 1975 10 Cents A Copy William Morris Stewart Giant in NC hall of fame It was the first case of the newly elected Nevada County District Attorney, William Morris Stewart. Ten minutes after the case started, Stewart, with a swift upper cut to the jaw, had knocked out cold the defense attorney, was himselftarrested for the assault and was cooling off behind bars in jail. : Miners Hall in Nevada City (before a court house was built) was packed for the trial. The interest of the red shirted miners centered on their comrade, the brand-new district attorney. Bill Stewart, a six-foot, red bearded Scotsman with only three months of legal book learning was making his court debut. A trained San Francisco import Judge was hearing the case. He was disturbed at the ineptness of Stewart’s approach and opening statement. The skilled defense attorney made fun of Stewart’s opening remarks. . “You are misquoting me,” Stewart objected hotly. “You're a cheap liar,” taunted the intrepid defense attorney. The audience in the makeshift court room sparkled to attention. A crusty miner, cheek-full of chewing tobacco made a direct bull’s eye clink in a brass spittoon ten feet away. The Judge gavelled for order. ‘‘Gentlemen, I won't..” But the magistrate spoke too late. Stewart’s toil hardened fist shot out with piston force and belted the venom dripping barrister with a magnificent upper cut. Blood oozed from the torn lip. The immaculately dressed lawyer was unable to arise. Bedlam broke-out in court. Stewart was arrested. This was the frustrating start for one of Nevada City’s great contributions to the world. Yet the restraint of this dismal beginning conferred a reward. Stewart was to demonstrate that adversity which has its uses could be conquered.The rough and tumble Nevada County District Attorney was to become: A United States Senator, in the most exclusive club in the world the U.S. Senate. é The author of the 15th Amendment to the U. S. Constitution.. guaranteeing the right to vote regardless of race, color, or previous — Frank Gallino honored condition of servitude. The world’s greatest authority on mining law and water use law, learned the hard way in the gold bearing ravines of Nevada county. (Continued on page 3) FRANK GALLINO receives a special award from the Grass Valley Area Chamber of Commerce for his continued community service activities. In recognition of his years of contributions of time and effort in many fields of endeavor the local chamber of commerce awarded him this special plaque. Making the presentation is R. Peter Ingram, editor-publisher of The Union and chamber director, who cited Gallino’s long list of accomplishments all performed in addition to his demanding workload as Nevada County Undersheriff. Although originally ml re Mrs. Charles chairman of the 1974 Gala Ball, recently presented a check for $4,200.00 to the Nevada County Community Workshop. The Gala Ball is an annual benefit affair on behalf of the Workshop and all proceeds are used for expansion of the rehabilitation program and capital improvements of the facility. Recent proceeds have been'used for the addition to the saw shop, the purchase of a large all steel warehouse and fork lift. : ; It is the policy of the Workshop Fowler, * to allocate all donation money for use in expansion or improvement of the existing program. General operating expenses, such as wages, production materials and overhead costs are paid out of income derived from production contracts. * A portion of this years gift from the Gala committee has been earmarked for tuition fees for staff ‘who are attending extension courses at the University of San Francisco, Department of Workshop Administration.
