.WOMEM'S INDEPENDENT TICKET
OF OPINION RESULTS N
Only PARFIAL TICKET.
W. c. 7. Z. Somewhat Dismenbered By
Dragging the Union Into Politios-
Some OF the Women Against
such Harmful Mixture.

The Independent" ticket, which viii
be entitled to a place on the city gen
eral and ward ballots, was filed IN the
Office of the city clerk Friday, by petit
ton. The nominees are:
For mayor - Z enry suns
For City Treasurer. -..-. Thomas p. LeonErd
For Treasurer Board Education --.--- z J. Scott
For Justice Of the Peace ------.A y. L Hheatley
Tor ustlce OF the Eeace- 30 NoInlnatl,a
FOR COnstab be-. 1890 No houinatlol
For Constable No EOmiDatica
FIRST WARD
For Member Board Edneation.
.......-.-.. -.--.-----.--A MS Iva ID. Aurpuy
SECOND WARD.
-.-....-.--..- - Mrs. Eva .YsnSeoyk
THIRD WARD.
For Councilman 49,. -..... No Nomination
For Member Board Education No Nomination
A glance at the foregoing list of nom
nations, punctuated with so many va
cancies, suggests the fact that the
Woman's Christian Temperance Union
of GOodland has had & hard time to
get people to run on that ticket, or that
its kind of politics is of the hit and miss
variety. It really comes about both by
a division in the woman's temperance
organization, and from the natural in
congruities of the women's work and
politics.
There was harmony on the question
of nominating a mayor, but when 3
full ticket was talked and fought for by
the radical element, there was decided
difference Of opinion, resulting IN
parting of the way.
This division was later evidenced by
the fact that in the Third ward there
were two successive Withdrawals from
the ticket by the ladies who were chosen
to run for a place on the board of edu-
ca ion. The general revolt of the women
against a full ticket is further seen in
the vacancies for councilman IRON both
the Second and Third wards and IN the
places of police judge, two cOnstables
and one justice of the peace.
Il isl an unconditional truth that
whenever the WOman's Christian Tenn
perance Union goes into politics, It goes
down to ruin and Injuries the temper
ance cause. The wisest women in this
worthy society are aveTse TO turning
| their white-ribbon organization into a
bowling political camp. It really exists,
not for political, but for moral Pur-
pose. If II ever succeed, It must %
gentle IN character and nou-combatant;
and instead of stirring up strife, must
persuade and win the world with love
and kindness; II must point out the evil
I of intemperance, and teach the bless
/ ings OF a better and more Psrtect lie
appealing always to the highest se1ti-
/ ments n the hearts Of the young mer
and women of orr country.
Politics is its deadly poison!

That AIiIIet story.

In last weeks issue of this paper, the
account given of the golden millet raised
by n. L. Chandler was a little incOr-
rect. The seed was procured from Call
& Kellogg, ranchmen Of Wallace cOun-
", price paid, 81 per bushel for four
bushels Of seed, from which 800 bushels
were raised. The sowing was unusu-
ally late, June p, and a dry spell fol-
lowed. Mr. Chandler IS very enthusi
astic over the drouth-resisting qualities
Of this forage and grain plant. The
seed came originally from California,
and IS grown extensively IN that dry
country for forage purposes.

|. u. KENT co. WILL
ERECT new BUILDING

The l. H. Kent Company. will soon
commence the erection OF an addition
to their present building, to be built OF
stone. 1t will be approximately the
same size as the building now used,
Between the old and new structures will
be cut arehways, and when the i'm
provements contemplated are finished,
it Is the plans OF the company to con-
duct a department store, modern in
every respect. For long time past,
the constantly growing business OF the
company has been conducted TO a dis
advantage, owing to the fact that their
immense stock OF general merchandise
has been forced into warehouses, rather
than on display shelves. Despite this
fact, however, their trade has been
phenomenal, the sales maintaining an
average that would do credit to an es-
tablshment in much larger place
than Fallon.
Preparatory to the commencement Of
active construction the lot adjoining
the present store was cleared this week
of temporary structures.

CHURCHILL COUNTY'S
SALT DEPOSIT

The deal that was closed last week
transferring the Sands Springs borax
deposit from Kinney Brothers, the
original owners to J. P Queeney, a
st. Louis capitalist originally included
the salt deposits situated few miles
south OF the property sold. Why the
salt deposit was dropped in. the deal
is hot known, but it is supposed that
Kinney Brothers preferred to hold
ii, in view of the new Fallon Hazeh
railroad, hoping that the new rates to
be established by the railroad COM
pany would allow OF the early de-
velopment of the salt deposits, which
are immense.
The salt beds, which cover an area
OF 600 acres, are fed by springs, which
carry so strong a solution Of pure salt
that it is estimated that the entire
area OF 2000 acres can be worked out en-
tirely and renewed every two years.
This ensures almost an inexhaustible
supply OF salt to the owners, who
have already installed limited amount
OF machinery and have worked the
property at different times in the past.
All tests that have been made disclose
the absolute purity OF the product,
which according to ananalys is made by
Thomas Price q Company, chemists OF
San Francisco, shows the remarkable
test of SO 2 per cent of pure chloride
OF sodium. Samples OF the salt have
been sent to different tanneries on the
coast, for use in the tanning process,
and it has always been pronounced to
