long time ago. OF course in old times
you had to live in them and couldn't
have nice seaside cottages with bal
comics. because IL you did your enc
mics shot off your head or poured boil.
Ing oil on you, but nowadays they
merely say horrid things behind your
back, and it's just play acting to build
new ones. People talk about man
being worth so many millions, as il
it didn't matter what else he's worth.
and they seem to be worrying lot
about themselves. Now. can't i'm
|agine your cousins doing that They
just take themselves for granted, as
we do in England. Their behavior Is
like the air they breathe and as much
part of themselves as that air Ia
when it's in their lungs. There's a
kind of invisible bond between our
kind of people at home and people like
this, l think, if you come to study 1t.
Partly It's from having all ones nat
ural interests in the country, maybe,
and not just going into the country
from a town to play. They are real.
There's nothing artificial about them.

same, though these new types and this

But could you love anyone who

said Mr. Trowbridge cheerfully. "Now
we'll have look around the camp, and

trees for the sap, then afterward vel
go into the sugar house where We boi

rather to me, for Mr.. Brett knew al

The cows were delighted. Evidently
they regarded the horrid. thick necked
brute as their champion. They didn't
follow him toward us, but lifted their
heads and stared complacently, as
much as to say: Isn't he a splendid
fellow? Now he's going to give them
what they deserve"
The rest happened so quickly it was
all In a tumble. With smile. Mr.
Brett reached out and took my sun
shade, which I'd closed. Just as the
bull came at us he opened It in the
creatures face. The bull syrerved a
few inches. surprised, and the next

by his horns and was vaulting on his
back with a laugh. run to the near

He did it as easily as if it We're play,
and so 1t seemed to be for him. The

while l obediently flew for the fence
and scrambled over without ceremony.
There l turned. painting. frightened,
yet laughing in spite of n: self Mr..

short hair was ruffled across his fore
head. Riding the black and white bull,
hanging on by legs as well as arms. he
looked like runaway schoolboy rev

sparkled, and his white teeth shone.
| The bull was sure he could throw his
rider at first. but finding he couldn't
was very much surprised. His wild
gallop subsidized to Il trot, and. embrac-
ing his great neck, Mr.. Brett bent far
down to one side 20 snatch up my sun
shade, which lay on the grass. open
and unchanged. A few moments
later he had steered the bull in some
| curious way with his feet. so that the
beast came Looping stupidity near the
fence. Then Mr.. Brett jumped off and
vaulted over.
THAT was a good bit of sport" said
he. 1T reminds me of old times, when
we chaps used to ride steers fur a
wager. I'm little out of practice
now, but hope you were amused"
II was much too terrified I said,
thankful that he was on the right side
of the fence at last

men employed in the mines shall be
properly safe guarded and consider

We favor the conservation of the
resources of the state of Nevada and
especially the economic use of our
timber and water supply and we
pledge our representatives in con-
gress to use their best efforts to
secure a liberal reduction of the
present wood charge in the reserve.
We again demand the rehabilita-

States mint at Carson and pledge our
representative in congress to use
every effort to this end.
We declare for a law authorizing
the appointment of code commits
sion in the state of Nevada for the
revision and qualification of our laws.
With confidence in our present

The PLATFORM
Continued from Page L.

We specifically endorse the plank
in the national Democratic platform
relating to the writ of Injunction,
which plank has received the en-
dorsement of organized labor
throughout the country.
We are in favor of sound banking
laws and we hereby pledge our rep
resentatives in the next legislature to
the passage of law providing for a
guarantee fund for depositors and
containing the salient features of the
Oklahoma banking act.
We heartily endorse the action of
the last legislature in passing the
railroad commission law and we are
unalterably opposed to any amend
ments to such law as will render it
imperative or Ineffective; and we
commend the work of the present
railroad commission which has effect
ed reductions in passenger fares. thus
saving the people of the state of Ne
vada the vast sum of 100000. dur
ing the past year, and greater results
would have been accomplished had
not the commission be restrained by
the orders of the federal court from
effecting a reduction in freight rates.
True Democracy is best accom-
plished in that system of government
where the people in fact rule; we
therefore pledge our representatives
in the state legislature to an enact
ment of legislation that will give full
force and effect to the initiative ref
erendum and recall from office.
The Democratic party, ever the
constant friend of labor, has to its
credit practically all of the legisla-
ton, now upon our statute books,
favorable to the working classes
Democrats point with pride at their
triumph, over Republican opposition
at the last regular session of our leg
islature, in passing an effective en-
ployers' liability act.
This convention recommends the
enactment by the next legislature Of
stringent law regulating the bust
ness of mining in this state whereby
legitimate development of our min
eral resources may be segregated
from the operations of swindling wild
cat companies.
We demand that the next legisla-
ture enact law creating the Office OF
mining inspector whose duty it shall
be to see that the lives and health OF

A wedding of more than usual in

o'clock last evening at the Nyco club,
when Miss Anna BeVan of New Or
leans and F. H. Morse of Goldfield
were united in the holy bonds of
matrimony by Lloyd B. Thomas, rec

The interior of the house had been
beautifully decorated, the color
scheme being pink and green with a
profusion of rare flowers strewn
about in an artistic manner. The
bride was becomingly arrayed in a
dainty white princess gown. She has
been in Tonopah since last December
and has endeared herself to all with
whom she has come in contact by her
gracious manner and beautiful dispo-
sition. Her friends regret much that
her marriage will take her from Ton
opah as Mr. Morse will engage in
busisess at Tacoma, Washington. An
elegant course dinner was served at
the club at which the following guests
were present: Mrs. E. l.. Knox, Gov
ernor Dickerson, Rev. Lloyd Thomas,
Gilbert Ross, Uri B. Curtis, Mark
Averill and William Stock. Mr.. and
Mrs. Morse will leave for San Fran
