agreement could be made on the
weight question and the proposition
has been dropped for the time being.
There is little known OF Young

Monday night demonstrated the fact
that he is no fake. however. and il Is
thought that if in condition, he will

Excellent sample and some anus
ing is the organ 5 persistent reitera-
ton of the machine campaign lie to
the effect that Flanagan voted against
the S hour bill. although not a men,
Der of he Legislature which passe
that bill. Vicious. however, is the
declaration charged 10 Flanagan that
he said at Smelter that he voted
against the hour bill because he
had numerous operatives on his pay
roll and did not propose putting on
three shifts. Flanagan said nothing
of the kind at Shelter nor at any
other place in White Pine county.
Some thousands of people who heard
him know that he said nothing of the
kind and that the publication of such
statement is a lie of whole cloth.
What he did say was that in the
legislature preceding that in which
the s hour bill was passed he OPP
posed the hour bill as originally
drawn. because II was blanket
measure applying to the farm. the
range. the law office, the store, the
theater and to every other line OF
employment and could not have been
made effective because 1t was nor
constitutional. He argued that pass
age of an unconstitutional act would
delay the hour day for the mine
worker, the carpenter, the mechanic
and others TO whom IL could be made
to apply and who he wanted TO see
have it. Therefore he advised that
the bill be changed and presented
anew When il was changed and pre-
scented in the next legislature, he did
all he could to aid its passage, though
not a member of that legislature, and
is accredited by those laboring men
acquainted with the fight that was
made with having accomplished a
great deal for the measure. This ber
ing true and of general knowledge in
the state, the persistence of the des-
perate supporters of the lost cause
OF Newlands in peddling the false
hoods they have eoncocted in regard
TO the matter is al one and the same

When manufactures indicate that
the cost Of production has been ma

er efficiency Of labor one is led TO
speculate why the price Of the finish
ed product is not reduced In proportion
as the cost of production is lessened.
Or failing to reduce the price to the
consumer, then why should greater
return be not given to lalor? 1t is a
fact that the dividends have been
large, very large to the stockholders,

that the public, through labor Of the
