ToNopAH COUNTRY WASHED OUT
A Raging Storm Tears Up Roads
and Stops Traffic.

duu btOpo AiohfN'
The following dispatch was sent out
from Tonopah last Tuesday:
Tonopah is threatened with a famine.
Shut in from the outside world, grave
fears are entertained for the safety Of
stock from starvation and the people of
this section may be reduced to a similar
condition. There is no hay or grain in
Tonopah and horses are already suffer-
ing.
The railroad track is washed away for
a long distance and the wagon roads are
completely destroyed for miles. Four
washouts over 400 yards long are re-
ported on the railroad, and others are
suspected. The meager reports indi-
cate that the extent of the damage is
even greater than was first reported.
The rain began Saturday and has
been falling in torrents, night and day,
ever since. Traffic of all kinds is shut
off. There has not been a train in
either direction since Friday, and it is
believed that the trains will not be able
to pass over the tracks for at least five
days.

semblyman "SOl" Summerfield.
A special dispatch to the San Fran
cisco Call from Reno on Aug. IL says:
"Sparks is now undergoing the novel
experience of having a boycott placed
upon its postoffice. The people of the
new railroad division town held a meet
ing and resolved that in the future they
will not have their mail received there,
neither will they mail letters in the new
town. The action was taken after
much complaint of unsatisfactory SER
vice in the delivery and sending Of
letters from the town.
POSTMASTER Summerfield depends
for his salary upon the cancellation of
stamps. The action Of the citizens will
deprive him of his income, and if pres
emit conditions continue the Government
will be compelled to abolish the office,
Notwithstanding the fact that the town
has a population of 1900 people.
BOXES have been established at diff
ferent business houses. The people de-
post their letters in these and they are
sent to Reno to be mailed. The Reno
postofice is noticing the increase in
business caused by this action"

cratic CanQ10ateS.
The New York Sun of August IL,
after a lengthy comment on Parker's
speech Of acceptance. says editorially:
Nothing has come from Judge Par
ker's lips or pen to indicate he possesses
q single political idea marking him as a
statesman of independent initiative. of
courage superior to the St. Louis brand,
of stature to command and lead.
Gas the case is now made up. we pre-
fer the impulsive candidate Of the party
of conservatism to the mildly conser-
vative, temporizing, opportunist rep
resentative of the Hun vote in the
background.
"We have more faith in the distinct
promises of the Chicago platform, but
ignoring many serious defects of that
document, than we have in the miser-
able, hell broth of dishwater and dyna.
mite concocted at st. Louis a month ago
by q party afraid to renounce its GRIM
inal follies, and tasted the other day at
Esopus by a respectable candidate who
declares with gusto that its flavor is
admirable.
1--WE shall therefore advocate the
election of Roosevelt and Fairbanks
and advise the defeat of Parker and
Davis, preserving our own absolute in
dependence of organic control. and our
freedom of judgment as to every specific
question occurring. And may Theodore
Roosevelt's present mood continue. and
if he is elected, may the discourageru Of
precipitapcy stand always at his elbow"
