The Elko INDEPENDENT does not
like the looks of the Electoral College
since the four new States have been
added to the Union. Thirteen ele, =
toral votes have been sdded by the
four States Austin
Reveille.
The INDEPENDENT has never ex-
pressed any opinion, adverse or other
wise, as to "the looks of the Electoral
College since the four new States
have been added to the Union" The
Reveille is anxious to believe that the
admission of the four new States
gives the Republican party the "mor-
tai cinch" ON the next President, and
the wish is father to the thought that
Democratic papers are discouraged at
the outlook. Keep your garments
on, Bro. Reveille, we are not at all
uneasy about the Electoral College.

Religious Liberty.

The first standard Of religious
liberty in the United States was
erected by the Catholics Of Maryland,
while the Puritans of Massachusetts
we're 30 thoroughly imbued with
religious bigotry and intolerance that
it was impossible for one OF liberal
religious views to live in peace in
their colony. These Cody men bent
all their energies to the task of com
polling all to believe as they did.
Their character is we'll described in
the following stanza:
An iron bedstead they do fetch
To try onr faith upon;
And il too short we must be stretched,
Cut off If we're too long.

County Official Paper.
Protection Of Property.

We call attention to the PROPOSE
ton OF the Elko Water Company,
elsewhere in this issue. The town ia
practically unprotected, for although
we have q small fire engine, the water
supply is SO limited that in case Of q
fire of any magnitude the engine
would be of no avail. Here We have
u proposition to supply the town with
ample facilities in the way OF water
for any emergency at trifling cost
to the owners Of property, and it
seems that they should not hesitate
to accept it. While other towns have
suffered tearfully from the ravages Of
fire Elko has almost miraculously es-
capped, but we may not always be thus
fortunate; and now that a means Of
ample protection is offered the people
should be only too glad to accept it.
The $500 will be raised by an assess
11ent on the value of the property of
zach citizen Of the town, by which
means, as before stated, the cost will
be trifling; and by the payment of a
few dollars hundreds Of dollars worth
Of property may be saved to the
owner

A Parrot story.

A well-known New Yorker had an ad-
venture which discounts by 10,999 the av-
erage conventional parrot story. He was
fond of knocking about in out-of-the-w
quarters of the world, and left ship on the
Central American coast with party of
comrades to explore the wilderness. Dur
ing the cruise of several months the entire
ships company merry crew-had de-
voted their odd hours in singing to par
rot. The sailors had lost no opportuni-
ties, and taught the bird all the sea-farin@
lingo, and few more or less elegant ex-
pletives besides. When the exploring
party had hidden the bird and the sailors
goodbye they plunged into the heart of
the tropical forest After twenty-eight
miles of mortal effort they reached their
camping-place for the night. Just as the
sun was going down they were startled to
hear in the primeval silence familiar voice
calling down from the top of tall palm,
"Avast tbere Yo, heave hop 1t was
the ships parrot. But before they could
recover their startled senses the faithful
bird, having flown ahead to prepare this
unexpected treat for its chums of the vow
age, futtered down to the top of dead
stump near by, and, with shrill call, sum-
moned thousands Of the little green paro-
quets of the country. 1t is said that
eleven thousand of them were counted as
they circled around the great gray African
oracle on the stump, and finally took their
places on the ground row after row. The
explorers looked on in dumb amusement.
When the festhered assemblage became
quiet the ships parrot burst into the words
of familiar song, and to the inextinguish-
able laughter of the Travellers the coaster
nation of the rest of the tropical world,
and the delight of the festive precentor,
the whole of the eleven thousand paroquets
with one mighty burst of song, broke into

cigars . Recent Additiou.

The use of cigars by civilized people
is much more recent than most people
suppose. The real cigar, which is a
pure roll of tobacco alone, probably
originated in Cuba, where the very
best cigars are still made. If not
there it was undoubtedly in one of the
West India islands. Their origin with us,
as in Europe, did not begin until early in
the present century. 1t is said that of all
the various cook books published between
1900 and 1915 and books which treat of the
pleasures and adjuncts of tastes before the
last named date, not one refers to the
after-dinner cigar or to cigars at all.
Cigars are now made ali over the civilized
world. They are produced very extin-
sively in Bremen and Hamburg, and at
Seville, in Spain. But at Manila, in the
Philippine Islands, the largest factories are
to be found in some of which 10000 girls
are mployed.-Erchanqe.

The reluctance Of Free Trade organs to
dwell much upon the London strike.
which is now In progress, is one Of the
most amusing things connected with these
rather tiresome dog days. For long
time these papers have been asserting
with angry emphasis, that Republicans
were plcturing the condition of European
labor rs vastly worse of than Was actu-
ally the case. This WAS done as = cam
psign scare. they said. Especially have
they labored to prove that the difference
between the condition Of the working
people Of Free Trade England and Of our
own country was very small. They have
quoted long columns Of figures to show
that such WAS the case, and have labored
with neal that was worthy Of q far
more patriotic cause, to show what great
advantage 1t would be for our country to
strike down all protective barriers and
place the workingmen Of the
two countries In open competition
thus equalizing the conditions Of both.

The Pension Department.

The desperate attempt Of the Demo
cratic and Mugwump press to secure the
removal Of Pension Commissioner Tan
ner, appears TO be actuated largely by a
desire TO divert public attention from the
gross Encouragement Of the office under
the administration Of General Black. In
n demagogical attempt to obtain reputa-
ton for economy Black failed to ask for
an appropriation large enough for the
proper carrying on Of his department.
As "A result the agencies are seriously
crippled. Agents have been compelled
to cut down their forces to ridculously
low figure, aud even those who remain in
the service do so on starvation wages.
II. &. Bell, chief Of the agents division
under Black, says that the story concern
Ing the icplorable condition of the

responsible for the shortage. What few

forced to work fourteen and sixteen hours
n day many Of them on half pay"
This is the reco,d Of Incompetence and
Encouragement made by General Black.
No wonder the Democrats are anxious 10
detract public attention from 1t rs much
ms possible by getti' < up II howl against
Tanner. II will avail nothing. The coun-
try has already become convinced that
Commissioner Tanner Is man OF ability
and integrity. He has the cordial support

assured that the howls Of class of indi-
viduals whose influence was chiefly with
Rebellion during that great struggle will
avail very little against the gallant veteran
In charge Of the Pension Department.
