AS lar as the owners of the paper ar.
concerned we are not taking up thei,
nght, nor seeking to justify any con
nection which they have had with thi.
paper in the past.
Our campaign, so far, has been con-
hned mostly to the promoting of the
election of the Commissioned RS. We have
evidently been quite successful in that,
since we have called down upon our
head the wrath of the party organ.
The Commissioners represe Mt the
most important offices in the county
and they have been the object of our
first campaigning. State Senator, Az
semblymen and Sheriff come next. and
we have already mapped out campaign
representing the reasons why the Re-
publican candidates for these offices
should be elected. Seeing the remarka-
bic smoke we have made in our first
campaigning we feel encouraged for
future work.

As far as the county printing is con-

to the spirit of the compiled laws of
Nevada, which state the printing shall

county paper must have been estab-

its place of establishment.
The county printing is costing Hum

 Focuses "An Eyes on the Hirsl
 Stoxes."
 The lease of the Hirsh Brothers expires on December 31, and as their New York and other interests contin- ually demand more and more of their personal attention they decided to transfer their New Haven store to a company, organized by Joseph Hughes, who has been the manager of the New Haven store for the past two years, and with the firm since the store open ed. (Mr Hughes has made a host of friends in New Haven.)
 The new company takes possession of the Hirsh Stores on January list, but takes over no merchandise, There- fore, the entire stocks of fine clothing and furnishings are now on sale at one- half and one-third off standard prices. and nothing will be reserved. The stocks now in the store, goods on transit and coming in, all are classi- fled under the one-half and one-third off price.
 An opportunity like this will prQba- bly, not be remembered by the oldest inhabitant in the City of New Haven. Early in December, cold weather just begun, very little Winter clothing bought by anyone, and here is an op- portunity that certainly bears investi- gation on the part of anyone looking for Real Bargains"
