The snap shot fiend will soon be a
thing Of the past. Amateurs to-day
are putting brains into their pictures.
While brains and work are necessary
to make artistic pictures. good outfit
is also essential. The box should be
one with a focusing arrangement and
ground glass, the shutter one of the
automatic time and speed combinators,
bQt the most important Of all is the
lens. 1t Is better to have good lens
and cheap box and shutter than a fine
box and shutter with a cheap lens. 1t
is also advisable to own two lenses a
wide angle for interior and confined
places, and a rectilinear The rectili-
near lens should be of high speed and
not too long focus, for all around
work. A high grade combination lens
is very desirable, which by removing
one combination give very long focus
with remaining combination-is at
times very important. The subject of
lenses is an inexhaustible ones. and we
will endeavor to treat this subject in
some future article.

Platform.

The Republicans of the State of Ne
vada, in convention duly assembled, as
their first deliberate act now record
their deep affection for the illustrious
memory of that wise statesman, Chris
tian gentleman, and conspicuous ex-
ample of a pure life, William McKin-
ley, late President of the United States.
PARTY ACHIEVEMENTS,
We appeal to the industrial history
of the United States and to the present
conditions which are in plain view of
every citizen that neither President
Mckinley, nor the Republican party,
was or is the tool of trusts or the
creature of influences inimical to the
common good of our country or to the
welfare of it's people. The restoration
of Republican supremacy was the sig
nal of renewed industrial activity and
the general employment of American
workingmen, trade set out upon new
crusade, not to conquer the world but
to exchange with it upon terms advan-
tageous to all. From the position of a
debtor nation we have become the
chief creditor nation of the earth.
While these surprising economic con-
ditions were being wrought great
and successful war has been undertaken
in behalf of humanity and has been
conducted to a most glorious result.
Without the slightest jar the executive
control of the government passed to
the hands of Theodore Roosevelt. The

Pointers on Irrigation.

A Southern California man gave a
Portland Oregoniaa reporter some in
teresting points on irrigation the other
day He said be kept twenty head OF
milk COWS the year around on alfalfa
grown on forty acres. Six crops a
year are cut from the land, the irriga-
ton being supplied by gasoline en-
gine pumping from seven-inch arte-
sian well, which does not flow to the
surface. The water is taken over the
field in pipes, which are disjointed to
allow the water to flow on the ground.
The old way of open bitches wasted a
great amount of water in evaporation
and seepage.

An Ancient Easter Custom.

An ancient custom once universal il
England on Easter Monday and Tues

heaving day women were raised three
times in chair, after which they were
kissed and liberated. On Tuesday the
women lifted the men in the same man

For Tiger

No use to hunt tigers with
bird-shot. 1t doesn't hurt the
tiger any and it's awfully risky
for you.
Consumption is a tiger
among diseases. 1t is stealthy
but once started it rapidly
eats up the flesh and destroys
the life. No use to go hunting
it with ordinary food and med
icine. That's only bird-shot.
It still advances. Good heavy
charges of Scott's Emulsion
will stop the advance. The
disease feels that.
SCOTS Emulsion makes the
body strong to resist. 1t
soothes and toughens the lungs
and sustains the strength until
the disease wears itself out.

TARIFF.

The Republicans of Nevada are un-

of protection to American industries
and American labor. We point to the
present unparalleled era of prosperity
and confidently appeal to the people
for their Judgment in support of the
protective principles Of tariff legisla-

itself to correct any inequalities in the

manifest and to provide for such adj

justments as will destroy all trusts and

PURITY OF ELECTIONS.
We denounce the repeal of the purity
of elections law, and demand the re-
enactment of law which will guar
antee an absolutely free and honest
popular ballot.
LOTTERIES.
We are unalterably opposed to any
constitutional amendment authorizing
lottery.
STATE LAND CONTRACTS.
We declare our opposition to any
legislation intended to decrease the
rate of interests upon State land con-
tracts, and we are unalterably opposed
to the leasing of the public domain.
MINING.
We rejoice that the State of Nevada
is entering upon new era of prosper
ity and development and that the
awakening of the mining industry is
bringing our vast undeveloped re-
sources to the attention of capital.
We favor every form of legislation
beneficial to mining and recommend
the passage of law permitting the
discoverer Of a mining claim upon I'M
improved and unfenced land held in
private ownership in this State to ac-
quire title thereto for reasonable
recompense.
LAKE TAHOE.
We favor the acquisition and the ex-
elusive control by the United States
for National reservation of Lake
Tahoe and its basin in order that no
portion of its waters may be diverted
from their natural outlet and course.
POLLUTION OF RIVERS.
We urge that the rivers of this State
be kept reasonably free from pollution
and that the legislature enact such
laws as may be necessary to prevent
their noxious contamination.
ANARCHY.
In America, the land in which COM
plete liberty in the enjoyment of all
civil, political and public rights, is es-
tablished and efectually maintained,
there should be no place for anarchy.
A blow struck at a public representa-
tive is a blow struck at the govern
ment itself and should be punished as
treason. We demand a fearless en-
forcement of the existing laws, and, as
further safeguard such legislation as
will severely punish all teachers and
practicers of anarchistic doctrines, as
well as encouragers of lynchings, and
all forms of mob violence.
PLATFORM PRINCIPLES.
Having directly in mind the last
platform of the Democratic party of
Nevada we submit that political plat
forms should be confined to declara-
tions Of party principles and should
not descend TO fulsome adulations of a
partisan adherent or to venomous
abuse of political opponent.
AN APPEAL.
"With friendship to all and with ma
lice toward nonen we earnestly invite
all good citizens of Nevada, and es-
pecially all of Republican antecedents,
to unite with Us in the achievement of
Republican supremacy, general pros
perity and the welfare Of the people.

Gods promises are as sure as himself How delightful to rest in and on the promises which loving Father has given but the best of all will be the coming into possession of tho inheritance.
 God is just, and therefore will do all he has promised, either as reward or punishment. To hs leaient to the un- penitent wicked, or fail to reward His faithful servants as His word declares ] will destroy His justice. but His justice is incorruptibe, unfaling, undertaking without respect of persons. Though denied by the ungodly.
 Some people think the devil is dead, but if you will look at the devastation being wrought by him in this world you will very rapidly see he Is much alive yes, as much so as live electric wire. The devils name could well be called lewiston for his effort Is 10 divide homes that their peace shall be gone, he divides churches to destroy their unity, he divides associations to weaken their in- iuence, he divides conventions so as to make less effective the work of Gods people. He has been the chief mover and promoter of denomnationalism. Rev. Hamilton's sermon on "Repen. tance" was one of the best we have heard He is very earnest speaker. Good con- gregations are meeting him each night. It is very hard to get people interested enough to come to services.
