S. M. Streeter, convicted of incest in Elko last Thursday, was sentenced to-day. Referring to the above trial the Independent says: Thus ends the trial of a case which has no equal in the criminal records of Elko county and so far as we are able to learn the verdict gives great satisfaction, the general expression being that it was a righteous one and that justice has been vindicated.
