Ma or Patten Scores Reno.

In a recent article in the Journal
Major Patten OF Sparks hands out
some hot language to the Reno
knockers" He says that they do
all they can to prevent investments in
Sparks and seem bent on belittling
and pulling down the place If they can.
He points out that any investment in
Sparks is beneficial to Washce county
and will help reduce taxation 1t is obi
to find men in a town who are SO short
sighted as some people in Reno. Yet
what Patten says is true. They think
by pulling down every other section
they are building up Reno.
People OF that class are very narrow

ton Of such an office would be equalled
by the saving to the State resulting
from a conscientious and INTEL gent
performance of the duties thereof.
We believe that the welfare and
increased prosperity of the State, and
the better convenience and greater en-
joyment of its inhabitants requires
that system Of permanent highways
should be constructed upon modern
scientific principles and at the expense
of the State, such expense to be so
provided for that no material increase
OF taxation to our people shall result
therefrom.
Capital punishment for murder n
the first degree has, in theory, long
been the law of this State. In recent
years the Legislature has so acted in
special cases as to practically nullify
this law. In order that the statutes
may be in harmony with the will of
the people upon this important sub
ject, we recommend to all the voters
of the State, a general discussion of
this question so that when the next
General Assembly oonvenes, it's men,
bers will know the sentiment of the
State with reference thereto, and leg
islate accordingly.
The Republican party of this State
has ever stood for the principles of
temperance and is abiding in its belief
that the unrestricted traffic in intoxi.
eating liquors cannot be tolerated
within our borders. Two years ago,
after being referred to our people, the
present License Local Option law was
adopted. We believe that this law
should be given a full, free and fair
trial, and we therefore recommend to
the General Assembly that, having
been so amended as to give force and
efficacy to the fundamental principles
upons (which the law itself rests, the
same be further continued in force

be held the last of next week, perhaps
Friday evening.
