AN echo OF LAST
nights Meeting
knocker Knocks Knockers Who Knock
Knockers And Suggests Methods OF
Improvement.

To the Editor of The Optic:
Sir. -Windjamming Is term used
10 denote the making of wordy
speeches that lack sincerity. A num-
Der OF splendid examples Of this an.
cient art were given at the meeting of
the Commercial club last evening. To
gether with many others who believe
MIR. Buddecke to be a splendid man
and a progressive and valuable citi-
zen attended that meeting. We are
all glad to see him at the head of this
organization. We honor him for his
push and enterprise though his light
service is not yet ideal. But let's get
down TO the speechmakers. They told
us that the trouble with Las Vegas Is
that there are two towns. Well, there
have been two for the last twenty-five
years. and the talk about uniting them
now Is as futile as the eyanescent
hopes of an impossible dream. These
two towns will unite when the Biblical
lion and lamb lie down In peace TO-
gether and not before. So let's quit
chasing that Greater Las Vegas rain
bow. Another says that the trouble
Is we have too many knockers. A
knocker Is one whose opinions differ
from ours, and who has the bad taste
to express his views. II say that the
methods of the board managing the
! Las Vegas grant are susceptible of i'm.
provement in some respects, | am O
knocker. If | have the temerity to
doubt the advisability Of sinking more
money In that childish absurdity call

times. Just say the town was never
more prosperous. and we will all get
