Happy Days With
the Country
Newspaper.

A few days ago Colonel Alex
ander K. Mcclure, the veteran
editor and Nestor of the Philadel-
phia Press, said hat the happiest
days of his journalistic career were
those in which he was 'the editor
OF a country weekly paper in West
ern Pennsylvania"
There are thousands of the older
men in the profession today who
can heartily say "amen" to Col
onel McClure's experience. They
remember those joyous old days in
some ramshackle print shop in a
country town; the old Washing
ton press; the roller boy the roller,
mold and the casting of a new roll
er; the sitting up at night to mail
the edition of 600-that 600 more
formidable over public affairs and
world interests than the charge
made at Balaklava by that other
600 of old England! The country
editor-who is the peer? He
writes and the people hardly con.
tain their patience a week to know
The Central Nevadan. [volume] (Battle Mountain, Nev.) 1885-1907, 1903-09-10

what he has wrote on the burn
ing issues OF the day! He gets invi-
atoms to all functions, free passes
to all shows. appointed on all sorts
of commissions where there is no
pay, gets cake from the wedding,
cord wood for subscriptions and,
occasionally, 'sgets it in the neck
from a contemporary.
The country press is an INSOFAR
able factor from the forces that
make up our civilization. 1t is on
and of the soil. 1t is the mirror
of the human problems of its en-
yironment. 1t is more nearly the
organ of public opinion than the
mammoth journals whose strong
est purposes are commercial.
Every community owes the
prime duty Of support to its local
press. If a man can afford to take
only one paper he should take his
home paper. If he can go further
and take a daily, let that he but
the supplement to his county pa
per. The old Greek adage. know
myself" should be expanded into
"know thy neighbours" and the
way to do that is to support your
home paper. There is no better
or more helpful asset to any county
than a good newspaper, filled with
neighbors news, and dealings with
all issues of common interest as
the weekly press usually does
fairly and honestly-Atlanta Con-
stitution.

ERmS s.
Bamberger's Fore
cast.

Three or four months ago, when
silver began to show signs of i'm
provement, General Manager Jacob
E. Bamberger of the Daily West
made the statement hat matters
were SO sharping that he had no
doubt that the price Of silver
would continue to move up and
before the year closed he expected
to see it settle down somewhere
around 80 cents an ounce, says
the Salt Lake Tribune. He then
related that the American Smelt-
ing and Refining Company interest
we're working for the cause with
the utmost application and he de-
clared he had every reason to be-
lieve from his knowledge of what
was transporting that they would
be successful.
Since then Mr.. Bamberger has
had the satisfaction of seeing his
prediction and yesterday, when
the white metal was quoted at 56s
cents per ounce, the highest it has
been for one year and a half. he
felt in pretty good humor. He
expects to see it go higher still
before the year grows much older
and continues to hold to his as
sertion that it will finally settle
down around go cents an ounce.
The price of silver now is near
ly 10 cents an ounce higher than
it was early in the year, an amount
which is the equivalent of about
So per ton to the producers of
silver-lead ores in this State. The
difference to the Daily West is
something like $4,000 per month,
to the Silver King probably about
the same, while all of the produc-
ing mines r pro6tting to a great
er or less extent by the advance,
which if it holds up for the balance
of the year will mean a difference
in the States production totals of
more than 81 ,0OO,0 GOO.
Copper is also showing unmis-
taxable signs of strength again,
and the Eastern experts in the
metal market are preaching II
cents Is the figure that is likely to
be maintained for the red metal.
AS the mines of Utah are begin
ming to cut a figure in the copper
producing world, the advance in
that metal will be welcome along
with that of silver. The balance
of the year seems to hold much of
promise for the producers of this
State.

Stockmen Meet at Wa-Keeney TO Pro
test Against the Quarantine.

A large and enthusiastic meeting of
the stockmen of Trego and surround
ing counties was held at the court
house in Wa-Keeney last Saturday af-
ternoon to discuss the quarantine
situation. After considerable discus
sion a committee was appointed to
draft protest to Governor Bailey
against the present quarantine and
asking for such modi ticatIons as will
allow cattlemen to have their herds
Inspected and granted a bill of health
where cattle are not affected with itch
or mango. The present quarantine
against the western part of the state
is considered by cattlemen to be I'M
just discrimination against this part
of the state and entirely uncalled for
herds in this part of the state are af-
fected with itch or mango. 1t will.
work as great misfortune TO the cat
tie interests of the short grass coun-
try and will cause the loss of thou
sands of dollars to the cattlemen of
this section of the state.
Cattlemen all over the western part
of the state are protesting vigorously
against the action of the sanitary
board and the proclamation of Cover
nor Bailey, and it is hoped that the
action of the governor may be re-
scinded or at least so modified as to
allow herds not affected to be moved
or shipped to market without the
necessity of being dipped.
Following is the protest sent to Gov
ernor Bailey by the stockmen of this
section:
To Hon. w. J. Bailey, Governor of
Kansas:
We, the members of The Western
Kansas Stockmen's Protective Associ-
alton and Stockmen of Trego County,
in general, de hereby protest against
the discrimination made against the
western part of the state, and recon-
mend that the quarantine be raised
at once, and that d resident Stockman
be appointed Inspector in each county,
whose duty it Is to immediately in
Spect every herd in their respective
counties and where there is any disease
10 require the immediate dipping of
ease in herd said stock be exempt
from dipping on certificate OF said in-
Spector TO that effect. After which
they can be sold or removed.

For an Ideal Vacation.

Nearly every settlement of import
ance in the mountain regions of the
West are deep canyons wherein the
people at home, as well as those from
abroad, seek, in the summer season,
the GOODNESS and pleasure of camp life.
High up the mountain side, on the
shores of mountain lakes, or on the
banks of mountain streams, summer
hotels are conducted for the convent
ence of those who prefer to have all of
the recreation and none of the labor

tains. 1t may be said that wherever
there is mountain in Colorado or
Utah there is also an interesting cam
