Owens River Power.

The following from the Inyo Reg
ster is Of interest to the people Of
Tonopah, the Owens River Water
and Power Company being the one
that purchased the water rights Of
Messrs. Cal Brougher aud W. W
Booth on the Owens River, with the
intention Of building a power hue to
Tonopah: w f.. Condor, Chief En-
gineer Of the Ovens River Water
and Power Company. arrived this
morning, after a trip to San Fran
cisco. He reports everything NOV
ing along ~favorably for the enter
prise. Yesterday he flied maps at
independence, covering The route Of
the transmission line through the
county. The mountain party has
probably reached Oasis by this time.
Like many others we have believed
that the plans Of the company might
conflict more or less with those Of the
reclamation project. As the latter
is Of the first consequence to this
valley, such a belief did not admit OF
much enthusiasm over the prospects
of the other. Mr.. Condor assures
Us, however, that aside from the
question of prior location which
would be one conflct-his company's
plant will be further up the canyon
than first stated, and above any
point where it would interfere with
the Government diversion; also that
the Hydrograhic service has fur
nished him assistance. We are very
glad to be assured of this, and be
cause Of it give the company a much
more cordial welcome than has here
tofore been possible.

OFFICIAL PAPER OF NYE COUNTY.
CIRCULATION IN TONOPAH

LUG ludN9 ulul VI talutIll
Roosevelt in Washington on Satur-
day last, was attended by scenes Of
unusual brilliancy. The pretty city
was a blaze of decorations more
elaborate and beautiful than on the
occasion of any previous Inaugural
tion. The presidents address, which
was listened to with rapt attention
by the vast throng Of people, was an
able effort. He spoke in part as fol-
lows:
My Fellow Citizens; No people on
earth have more cause to be thank
ful than ours, and this is said rever-
entity, in no spirit of boastfulness in
oar own strength, but with gratitude
to the Giver of Good who has blessed
Us with the conditions which have en-
abled US to achieve so large IA meas
ure of well being and Of happiness.
Much has been given to us, and
much will rightfully be expected from
US. We have duties to others and
duties to ourselves; and we can shirk
neither. We have become a great
nation, forced by the fact Of its
greatness into relations with the
other nations of the earth; and we
must behave as beseems a people
with such responsibilities. Toward
all other nations, large and small,
our attitude must be one of cordial
and sincere friendship, We must
show not only in our words but 10 our
deeds that we are earnestly DESTROYS
of securing their good will by acting
toward them in a spirit Of Just and
generous recognition of all their
rights.
But justice and generosity il a ma
tion, as in an individual, count most
when shown not by the weak but by
the strong. While ever careful to
refrain from %wronging others, we
must be no less insistent that we are
not wronged ourselves. We wish
peace; but we wish the peace Of JUS
tice, the peace of righteousness. We
wish it because we think it is right
aud not because we are afraid. No
weak nation that acts manfully and
justly should ever have cause to fear
us, and no strong power should ever
be able to single us out as a subject
for insolent aggression. There Is no
good reason why we should fear the
future, but there is every reason
why we should face it seriously.
mel ther hiding from ourselves the
gravity of the problems with the un-
bending, unfinchiug purpose to solve
them Alright.
We have faith that we shall not
prove raise 10 the memories OF the
men of the mighty past, They did
their work, they left US the splendid
heritage we now enjoy. We In our
turn have an assured confidence that
we shall be able to leave this herit-
age unwasted and enlarged to our
children and our children's children.
To do so we must show, not merely in
great crises, but in everyday affairs
of life, the qualities Of practical in.
t%elligence, of courage, Of hardihood
and endurance, and above all the
power Of devotion to a lofty IDEAL.
which made great the men who
founded this Republic in the DAYS Of
Washington, which made great the
men who preserved this Republic in
the days of Abraham Lincoln.

RALLY IN ANDERSON
SAVE DISPENSARY.
RESOLUTIONS Adopted Favoring Reien
tion Of IustitutiOD.

b Besolutions Adopted Favoring Reten
ton Of IustitutiOD.
Special to The State.
Anderson, Nov. 22.-Pursuant to q
call issued on Monday rally Of the
friends of the dispensary was held to-
day In the court house. The meeting
was attended by about l50 people.
Speeches in favor of retaining the dis
psnsary were made by Mayor J. M.
Sullivan, R. E. Ligon, president Of the
Gluck cotton mills, J. Belton Watson,
member of the house ofrepresentatives,
j. L. jackson, 8 former member OF the
house, E. M. Rucker, Jr., member of
the house, r. w. Simpson, chairman
of the board Of trustees Of Clemson COL
lepe. and ]. E. BreaZeale, 8 former
member of the house. The most prom
inent argument advanced against vot-
| ing out the dispensary was that prohi-
bltion could not be enforced In the
county, that the blind tigers would be.
come intolerable. The belief was ex.
pressed generally that the dispeDsary
law could be perfec: Led and shorn fits
corrupt features.
The meeting was presided over by
8. N. Pearman, q former member OF
the house Of representatives. Mr.. A.
Nj. Carpenter acted as secretary.
The following resolution, introduced
by Hon. J. E. Breazeale, was unani.
mously adopted:
Resolved, That In our opinion the
time has not arrived when q prohibi-
ton law can be enforced In this county
and that we regard the dispensary
law, properly enforced under existing
circumstances, the best solution OF the
liquor question.
Resolved further, That we favor a
strict enforcement Of the law, and the
removal from Office Of all corrupt OH
cials and their prosecution in the
courts, not only as matter OF justice,
but as an example for others in the
future.
1--WE therefore approve the dispen.
sary law for what it has already accom-
plished and for what we believe 1t can
still accomplish if strictly enforced,
and we do not believe that the condi.
tions under prohibit n law will be
as good as the conditions now existing
In our county,"
The more ardent friends Of the dis.
pensary are claiming that the tide has
been turned and that the dispensary is
saved in Anderson county. What ef'
/ feet the meeting today will really have
remains to be seen, but whatever 1t &C.
com plishes IN the way Of changing
public sentiment, it marks distinct
and organized effort to save the sys'
tenn in this county.
The election will take place Satur'
day.
