When Nevada saved the nation.

And here's the county seat also,
They fought so hard to land;
And here's the legislature, too,

To the Press Of Nevada:

To the Press OF Nevada:
The time has ripened heroic action.
The Railroad encouraged by the re-
cent defeat Of bill directed against
public utility corporations, and feel
ing sur of its strength in the legisla-
ture, defantly declared its attitude
towards the people of Nevada, which
is no more or less than Ego to the
devil"
"He who laughs last, laughs best"
There are fifty newspapers and l0O,-
900 people in Nevada, there are a
dozen smooth-tongued lobbyists with
a bundle of corruption money in their
clothes, the situation narrows down to
a test of strength.
Let us win; we can If we want to.
Let us want to, let us demonstrate
as a matter OF principle that the press
is powerful, victory in this instance
will mean the dawn of a new Nevada.
After this is fulfilled many more
things will be accomplished. which
will bring fresh, healthy, permanent
growth to every town and county in
the State.
Why should our 81 elements not be
larger and moro prosperous? Why
should our lands not be irrigated, cul-
tivated and thickly settled?
Let us get a bulldog grip on the
situation and not relax until W. win.
First of all, interview your legisla-
tors personally or by telegram and
MAKE THEM declare themselves.
THEY MUSTi
Secondly, see some Of your voters
and when you go TO Carson on the IL,
bring a strong delegation with you.
The rest we will do in Carson. Should
the cost OF transportation be a barrier
we will raise enough here to refund
expenses, the measure is SO vital.
In the meantime keep the popular
sentiment alive by featuring the art
icles mailed you for publication.
hen we win the fight, Nevada will
be blazoned through the A. p. from
the Pacific to the Atlantic as q State
whose press is powerful and capableo of
protecting its people from corporation
atrocities-probably the only State in
the Union, as a State where immi.
grants and new industries are certain
# Justice and protection, a a State
which accomplishes a task frustrated
in such States as New York and Cali
fornia.
Decidedly worth while-the task is
so grea. and far-reaching in influence,
the pride OF effecting it will never
leave us.
Let it appeal to your instinct as a
newspaper man-the greatest scoopin
Nevada.
1t is intended to introduce the rail-
road relief bill on the 18th. Please
wire nae as soon as possible the re-
spouse of your Legislators and whether
you will bring a delegation. Also re-

jumps they tore loose from the wagon
and started down main street at full
speed. Bill went straight for the
barn, took a drink and went to his
