j its metropolis is the sen,.' of an ex
j position that is attracting the atten
j tiou of the entire world, the Stale

litical situation that may result in a
sensational scandal. A special ses

vened here today to probe the charg
es that will be made against state ofli
cials by the legislative investigation
committee appointed at the last ses
sion. "The Republican parly of Washing

been cast will be thoroughly investi
gated by the legislators who gather

declared that, there will he no at
tempt at white washing and that any
official found guilty of dereliction of
duty will be publically exposed.
It is alleged that Insurance Com
missioner Schivcly has been the sub
ject of a special investigation into
his conduct of the department in his
charge.

WAITE TRIAL PROCEEDS
Tie trial of George C. Waite is
proceeding iu federal courti today,
all the jurors having' been secured
yesterday evening.
The committee appoitnti' to talc
subscriptions lor the new building
and loan association has been at
work two days now and reports fine
success.
This committee is of. the Promotion
Association and the work of the
members of which A. M. Ardery, and
not Mr. Colin as slated yesterday, is
chairman, is in lino with the line
work of the Promotion Association
since it started.
Carson City has never before had
a more up-to-date and alive organiz
ation than is this.
The city is being improved with
cement sidewalks, the work of the
Promotion Association, backed by the
city trustees. General improvement
of homes and of vacant, blocks has
taken place and there is an air of
prosperity in Carson City that belies
the derisive epithets thrown at it by
other cities of the state who lack
the beauties of the. capital city and
try to make up for them by a dis
play of hustie that makes line busi
ness for everyone.
The Promotion Association propos
es to keep up the good work and to
see that Carson City takes first rank
in Nevada as a home city and a city
of homes. New buildings have been
projected and other improvements
are to be made that, will soon make
this one of the finest cities on the
coast.
From one end of Carson street to
the other cement work is going on.
This is a distance of nearly a mile
and while' much of it is already pav
ed there is much to be done yet and
is being done.
The Association tried to get a bill
through the last, legislature to make
improvements about .Te capitol
building, but the bill died in com
mittee of the whole and nothing came
of it. The capitol therefore will
stand without much improvement
until the next session.
The effect of al I these improve
ments has been fine on business
generally. 'Business men report
good trade and the weather having !
settled, there is every prospect of a j
good and prosperous summer season.
Carson City is all right and the citi
zens are not complaining of hard
times, with all the work going on
here and to come. There is yet about
half a million of state money to he
expended in this county during the
next two years and the county will
spend $ 40,000 on road building and
internal improvements of a perman
ent nature.
There is nothing the matter with
Carson City, nothing whatever.

MRS. BOURBON
ON THE JOB
l Spain is rejoicing at the birth of
a daughter to Victoria, the queen,
i Mrs. Bourbou now has three chihl
' ren. The first two are boys, one
born .May 10, 1907, one June 2a,
l'JOb and now comes the daughter
born June 22, 1909.
The advent of the little princess
was attended by ail the ancient court
ceremonial of Spain, the highest dig
nitaries of the Kingdom present at
the accouchement that they may be
able to swear that the child is Ihe
genuine daughter of the duly authen
ticated queen, who hart previously
taken an oath that the king is father
and a lot of oilier tommy rot that
would be offensive and insulting to
a decent American woman.
Spain has had so many little jolts
handed it by the Bourbon family that
she takes no chances anymore, seem
ing to prefer an imbecile with a line
of crazy ancestors on the throne to
a child of good sense and half-known
parentage in the seat of this ruler.
The eoiiimwi people get just as
hungry trying to pay the taxes to
support one as the other.
