Dear Sir. My brother and / Are
to cast our first votes this fall. One
Of Us has just gradl ated from col.
lege, the other has been In business,
and we are on opposite sides OF the
political fence. We have agreed 10
write an identical letter to several
prominent business men In various
parts of the country, of both parties,
asking an answer TO the question,
(Which Is the safer vote to give, q
vote for Roosevelt or vote for
Ptr.er?"
We prefer 10 put the question
thus, (Which - the safer vOtr:''
rather than (Which Is the bette
man:"-for we believe that bot
candidates are personally such excel
lent men that q discussion Of their
personal qualities would not help us
very much in Our decision.
We shall be very greatly obliged
if you will take the trouble to
answer this.
Respectfully yours,

The quarterly bulletin of the
State department Of labor of New
York which has just been issued
states that the labor conditions
are better than they have been
in many years. The bulletin states
that the number employed is evelr
greater than in the record year OF
1902. The unemployed spoken OF
by the democratic leaders must be
the broken down democratic polite
ians that are without pie. And fol
the good Of the country may they
ever remain amor G the une mploy ed.

We have given the most of our
usual editorial space to an article by
Mr.. Henry Clews, CT New York, on
which Is the safer candidate to vote
tor Parker or Roosevelt. Mr., Clews
says that Mr.. Roosevelt is the safer
man of the two and gives facts to
prove his statement. The article is
well written and every voter, e.
pecially the young voter, should
read it.

The Democrats say that Parker
is man of striking appearance and
strong personalities but still they
say he must not make any tours.
They are afraid to exhibit him for

The Silver Party.

The news is given out that the Silver
Party has put up separate ticket. So
far as national politics are concerned,
silver is absolutely dead issue and even
the old timers In Nevada might Just as
well awake to this fact. The State has
always in the mind OF its oldest adherent
been regarded as silver Stat. because
OF the enormous wealth of this metal
that was taken out of the Comstock
The memories of the vast fortunes made
out OF silver naturally cling around the
old associations of the early days. To-
day the up to-date man, while realizing
that silver laid the foundations OF the
prosperity of Nevada, is no longer mar
row minded in his affection for that
metal. The progressive broad minded
man sees in Nevada State rich in cop
per, silver, coal, gold and many other
products. He realizes that gold is the
all purchasing power throughout the
civilized world and he appreciates the
fact that Nevada, does not RELY solely
upon silver for its prosperity. Now, at
this moment, right within the borders Of
Nevada is Goldfeld, the greatest gold
camp in the world to day. the produc.
ton from which will stamp Nevada as
gold and not silver State. That camp
alone would have justified the present
railroad; it will force the opening up of
the Coalfield coal mines; it is to day
pouring prosperity into the farmers OF
Big Pine, Bishop and Fish Lake Valley,
and the merchants OF Reno, Sacramento,
San Francisco and Salt Lake.
Nevada is TO day throwing off the
blankets of the past lethargy. and awak-
ening to the glorious dawn OF unpre.
cedented prosperity. Bonanza.

General News.

A newspaper, as general rule, in a
town the size Of Battle Mountain, finds
more difficulty in suppressing ''uews''
than in publishing it, For the benefit
OF some people in Battle Mountain ii
may be stated that there are number
OF things that newspaper man sees aud
hears that cannot be counted news items
and cannot he published as they really
happen. There are several reasons why
it would not do for a newspaper man to
publish everything that he sees and
hears. IL he did it might cause tears
aud heartbreaks, business failures, muir
ders and suicides A newspaper man, as
rule, Is the receptacle for all the gos-
sip OF the community. In his ear is
poured the troubles of every Mr.. So and
So in the community famil, jars, the
iudiscretions, the goodness and mean-
ness OF almost everyone is poured into
the receptacle. Often it is the case that
these things are told him in the hope
that he will publish them and thus dis
close the skeleton in the closet OF some
one against whom personal grudge has
been found 1t would surprise and
shock the public, generally, to know how
often newspaper man is taken of TO
one side. and how accurately and care
fully the misdoings OF some one in the
community is p ,rtrayed, and how eager
the informer is to have bis story appear
in print. How he would gloat over see
ing the article with faring headlines,
spread out to the public How earnest
ly he asserts that it is all true. that the
party referred to is not ft to live in the
community, and that people should be
warned against such one; but he will
not dare TO stand sponsor for it, and will
/. sist that il it is published his name
must not be mentioned!

Many Miners Look
for Jobs.

Despite the fact that the mining in.
dustry of Utah is prosperous, there are
many idle miners in Salt Lake, and the
number is being augmented daily. Most
of these men come from Colorado, where
labor conditions are unsettled and there
lie constant turmoil and trouble. Some
have left the Colorado miuing camps be-
cause of desire to live elsewhere or to
better their circumstances, and others
have been compelled to migrate.
But whatever the cause of the influx
ii is certain that there is an oversupply
of miners. Many miners who have fail
ed to catch on to jobs at any of the Utah
mines have passed on to Butte and Ana

Panama history as a re Letter oays
 Not a death occurred in the city TOT
 twenty-four hours, cfrcumsthnss
 hitherto unheard of.
 A temporary peace pact has been ta-
 citly agreed upon between the Pana-
 manian, and American Governments.
 The representatives of the former Gos- ernment believe that someho~ aha sometime the matter will be deser- mined upon in their favor. and with that idea in view they are resting con- tent. The situation. however, Is caus- ing numerous complications. Citing case in point, under a law passed this , year the Panamanian Government ex- . acts a contribution" of one hundred pesos per month from all steamship lcompanies having agencies in the city.
 and whose ships enter the ports or the Republic The South American Steam ship Company's vessels now come cleared for Port Ancon in the Canal Zone. and the company claims exemp- | tion from this tax from this fact. On the other hand the Panama authorities contends that as long as the steam ship company has an agency in Pana- | ma they must pay this contribution. and at the present time the matter is
 not adjusted, both parties refusing to | give in.
 l Investment hunters are beginning to arrive on the Isthmus. An english syndicate, represented by Albert Smith, a capitalist of Caracas, Venezuela, has been granted a permit to put up a brewery and cold storage plant. and
 many other projects are fin embryo. such as trolley line, American steam laundry and new electric light plant. etc A couple of years will work won-
 ders in the cities of Colon and Panama. and all along the Canal Zone, but a
