Death of Ex-senator J. Q. Cronkhite.

OSdIH VI IA=oSIldlOI y. ". STOilhHiLc.
A telegram was received at Argyle
Tuesday announcing the death of
former State Senator ]. Q. Cronk-
hite, at Olin. Iowa, where he and
wife we're at the time visiting rela-
tives. Mr.. Cronkhite removed to
Oklahoma last spring to become the
manager Of a large general mer-
chandise store for brother. About
a month ago he suffered a stroke of
paralysis from which he never re-
covered. In the hope of regaining
his health he went to Olin, Iowa, to
join his wife who was visiting rela-
tives there, and while there his end
came. -.
Mr.. Cronkhite was at one time a
prominent figure in the politics OF
Marshall county. He has held the
Offices Of county commissioner and
state senator. In Alliance and Peo-
ple's party councils he stood hlgh in
the balmy days of these organiza-
tions. But in late years he aban-
doned politics entirely and devoted
his attention to business. To his
many relatives and friends in this
county his sudden death comes as a
great shock. Like all men he had
his virtues and his failings; Of the
former those who knew him best are
fully conversant, and upon the lat
ter it is not necessary now to dwell.
Suffice it to say that j. @. Cronk-
| hite possessed many good qualities.
He had kind heart, and as a
speaker he was quite talented.

The general talk nowadays is
about contesting land. Our land
commissioner, Allen W.. Clark, is do

this vicinity. Instead Of doing a
legitimate United States land office
business, he is working up land con-
tests solely and simply for the pur-
pose of speculation and for his own
pecuniary benefit, thereby causing
many poor settlers to lose their gov

large sums OF money in defending
fraudulent contests.

ment.

THE eight-hour law was defeat
ed in the Senate this week. We
believe this was the proper thing
to do, and we thus believe because
we think the law would have in
jured laborers more than corpora
tons. There are some camps in
Nevada where there ought to be
an eight-hour law, but in those
places the Unions and the Compa-
MES ought to be able to regulate
time and wages. To make the
law general would shut out men
with money who might intend to
do development work on mining
property in this State. A company
which proposes to put considerable
money into mining venture from
which it is not certain that returns
will be coming for some time does
not wish to be hampered with laws
that prescribe how said company
shall spend its money.

SOME of our exchanges have as
serted that but very little politics
is being done by the present Leg
islature. Yet scme of these same
papers state that from the work
being done so-and-so is the logical

years hence; that so-and-so will be
the only fit stick of timber for AS

Elko, is good man illogical candi-

Mr.. --, of Washoe, another
logical candidate for G-r, etc.
Not only is the State ticket being
pretty well cut out, but the AS
sembly ticket in many counties is
being looked after, and. where it
can be done, other county offices
promised to those who will assist
the Legislative ticket in such and
such counties.

IT SEEMS that within the past
ten years fund of something over
81, 100 belonging to the Orphans
Home, has disappeared. Several
of our exchanges have mentioned
this fact and intimated that they
knew who got away with at least
$500 of the money. One paper
states he was good man and is
now dead. This tender remem-
brance of the dead while the living
suffer is touching piece of jour
nalism. Who stole the money?

before it wears out. We believe
it is guaranteed for twenty years.

NEVADA

IT is said that some of the Re-
publican members of the Lower
House of Congress are opposed to
the irrigation measure now before
that body. 1t is further stated that
the Senate is inclined to further
the measure that calls for an ap-
preparation for constructing dams
and reservoirs on the rivers in the
arid region. Why Republicans
should oppose such a measure is
beyond our comprehension. The
Republican party stands pledged
to assist in every way in its power
in this move. Mr.. Cannon, Chair
man of the House Committee on
Appropriations, said that the
plank in the Republican platform
in relation to irrigation, did not
mean anything, and was only put
in to catch few rotten boroughs
out West. This kind of talk
and this kind of work will do
the party no good in Neva-
da, and the sooner such men as
Cannon, Grosvenor and others are
made aware of the fact the better
Laying politics aside, the West
has stood about all it can from the
East. We, of the arid region still
believe we live in America and
should have rights equal to those
of the South and East. The irri-
cation question is one of vast i'm
portance to the entire country. 1t
would benefit the East as much as
the West to place under cultiva-
ton the millions of acres of land
that now produce nothing and up
on which no taxes are paid. The
question is a large one and time
must be taken to thoroughly con-
slider it. 1t should not be one of
politics. The greatest good to the
greatest number is what should be
thought of in this line. So far as
Nevada is concerned, she has been
in the Democratic ranks for some
years past through the broken
promises of the Republican party
on the Silver question There is a
strong tendency towards getting
back into the Republican ranks,
but if Republicans of the East are
going to cut us out entirely from
everything we want and from that
which is going to benefit the whole
country, they cannot expect much
assistance to the party from this
source. 1t would appear that this
new National Irrigation policy was
too close thing to the people to
be butchered by a few politicians
who appear to be only wrangling
over the question of who shall
have the credit of doing a work
that will rebound to the credit of
the forefathers of the rising gen.
Grafton.
