YERINGTON
WILL CONTEST
Is After Van Duzer'S Seat
in Congress.
Proceedings to be Brought on the
Ground Of Irregularities at
GOldfield.

For several weeks past the Repub-
licau leaders throughout the state
have been considering the a~dvisability
of James A. Yerington filing contest
proceedings to unseat Clarence d.
Van Duzer who has received the GER
tifcate Of election as congressman
from this district for the next two
years. After a full investigation Of
the irregularities at Goldfeld it was
decided unanimously that Mr.. Yer
ington should commence action
against Mr.. Van Duzer for the COW
eted seat.
The chief point against the seating
of Van Duzer will be the charge that
at Goldfeld there were irregularities
in registration in that many persons
registered and voted who had resided
in the state for less than six months.
In the Goldfeld precinct Mr.. Van
Duzer secured a plurality Of 283 votes
and il the precinct is thrown out by
the House of Representatives Yer.
ington will be declared elected as the
returns show that he was beaten by
only 219 votes. Six months previous
to election, Goldfield was but a small
town of about 300 people and severa
saloons. 1t was not until the last o
May that the strikes were made ant
the rush began and it was late in thu
summer before there were 700 voter
there, and many of them were non
residents who had arrived from Cali
fornia, Montana, Utah and Colorado
most of them from the latter state
The registration of voters was heavy
and on election day nearly 200 vote
we're cast. Quite a large number {
these we're polled by persons VIII
were transferred to the Goldfel
precincts, but it is quite a we
known fact that an almost equi
number voted who came to the stat
within six months from the day
election and had no right to vot0
This evidence is positive and upon
the contest will be based.

Grip Quickly Knocked Out.

''Some weeks ago during the evere
winter weather both my wife and
myself contracted severe colds which
speedily developed into the worst
kind of la grippe with all its miser-
able symptoms" says Mr.. j. S.
Egleston of Maple Landing, Iowa.
Knees and joints aching, muscles
sore, head stopped up, eyes and nose
running, with alternate spells of
chills and fever. We began using
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, aiding
the same with a dose of Chamberlain's
Stomach and Liver Tablets, and by
its liberal use soon completely knocked
out the grip" These Tablets pro

beneficial when the system is con.
gested by cold or attack of the grip.

Mrs. Jobson's Tact
A CHRISTMAS STORY

While making her Christmas-shop-
ping rounds the other day, Mrs Jobson
espied, in furrier's window, a squirrel
coat which she instantly concluded was
Just about right.
"That," said Mrs Jobson to herself,
amiably, but determinedly squaring her
chin, will be my Christmas present from
Mr.. Jobson."
Whereupon she entered the furrier's
establishment and tried on the squirrel
coat. 1t fitted her perfectly.
"You may consider the coat sold" said
Mrs. Jobson to the furrier. But place
1t back in the window. l shall want my
husband to see 1t there. BY the way,
wish you would drape it on a window
model with dark hair, instead of on that
blond model-my hair is dark, you
know" and the furrier perfectly entered
into the meaning of her smile and smiled
back. 81 shall pay you $40 on the coat
now, to bind the bargain. When my hus-
band pays you the full price of the coat
which he will, within few days-why,
shall have you return the $40 to me-"
"Oh, understand, thoroughly,
madam" said the furrier, with another
shrewd smile.
That evening, at the dinner table, Mrs
Jobson, by imperceptible stages, led the
talk around to the subject of Christmas,
and Mr.. Jobson looked surprised, and
then thoughtful, when she had impressed
upon him the nearness of the great fes-
tival.
