Judge Of the Supreme Court.

If any gentleman was ever de-
serving the support of the people of
Nevada, that gentleman is Frank
H. Norcross, Republican nominee
for Justice of the Supreme Court.
The nomination for the Office was
unsought for by him, and it was
unanimously rendered him by the
convention.
Frank H. Norcross is native of
Washoe county, this State: edu-
Gated in the common schools of Ne
vada, and a member of the first
class to graduate from Our State
University. He is also a graduate
of one of the leading law colleges of
this country, that of the George
town University Of Washington, D.
c. Besides his college training, he
has had more than ten years of very
active practice OF his profession.
He ranks among the very best law
yers of the State and the records of
the Courts will testify to his extern
sive and successful practice. He
has been admitted to practice be-
fore the Supreme Court of Califor-
mia and the District and Circuit
Courts of the United States, and is
now actively practicing in all of
these courts.
Frank Norcross has, served
Washoe county as District Attor-
ney, and as a member of the State
Legislature, and in both capacities
was an active, able and valuable
public servant. 1t will be remem-
bered that while District Attorney

although he was directed by the
Board of Commissioners to confess

parties who were claiming title to

missioners he refused to follow, to
the lasting advantage of the public.
He had the satisfaction later, when
through his efforts a donation Of
fifteen thousand dollars for a free
library building had been obtained
from Andrew Carnegie, of seeing
the building erected on this very
lot which he was so largely instru-
mental in saving for the people.
Mr.. Norcross has always taken an
active part in promoting the gen.
eral welfare of his home city, and
is prominently identified with many
of its fraternal, social and educa-
tional institutions. Both by edit
cation and experience, he is excep-
tionally well qualified for the posi-

of Reno, Carson and Virginia City
last week. He convinced all who
had the pleasure of hearing him that
the Irrigation Ball was a Republi-

gested by President Roosevelt,
passed by Republican Senate and

that it was the purpose of the Re-

the Filipinos independence as soon
as they were sufficiently able to
govern themselves.

PLATFORM
Of the
REPUBLICAN PARTY OF WHITE
PINE COUNTY.

The Republican Party of White
Pine County, Nevada, in Con-
vention assembled, adopt the fol-
lowing platform:
I.
We endorse the platform and
nominees of the National Repub-
lican Party, and the nominees

II.
We especially endorse the fol-
lowing plank in the Republican
State Platform, upon capital and
labor:
1--WE submit the labor record

Republicanism has built up a
tariff wall about this country
which gives the American mar
kets to the products Of American
labor. 1t has in every State
where in power enacted legisla-
ton favoring shorter hours and
sanitary conditions of labor, pro-
hibited child labor, and passed
stringent laws for the safe
guarding of the life and limb of
employees. 1t has under Theodore
Roosevelt substituted arbitration,
as in the coal strike, for the bull
let and bayonet of the last Demo
cratic administration in it's settle
ment of the Pullman strike.
Promising little, performing
much, it has been the true and
tried friend of both capital and
labor, whom it holds as equal and
concordant parts of the nation 8
industrial economy. The Repub
lican party will not support CAPT.
tai in oppression nor labor in
violence. It recognizes organized
labor as the unity of industrial
action, striving to secure a more
equitable distribution of the
fruits of industry. It is the
trusted ally of both capital and
labor; for capital in the things

seems to me unreasonable to assert
that the Democratic party stands at
present for policies which are de-
structive of free government and at
the same time to support that party
upon the theory that the best way
to reform a party is to intrust the
plutocratic element in the party
with the control of the government.
"The best way to reform the
party is to see to it, when it sells

Good roads are essential to the
