FIRST OF THE SEASON
Reno Reveille Starts Off With a Cork
ing Fish Story-A Steamboat

The Reno Reveille starts off with
the prize fish story of the season. 1t
represents the spounting up from
Steamboat Springs OF a. fresh water
devil fish. The monster was coughed
up by the springs and thrown thirty
feet in the air When it came down
it began shooting charges of electric
ity at everybody. 1t was finally killed
with shot gun and some dogs and
everytime a dog came near it the dog
got charge of electric fluid and its
yells Of agony could be heard two

Several dogs that ate the flesh all
died in twelve minutes.
The fish was seen by all the lead
ing fish liars of Reno. Their names
are published in the Reveille and
there can be no mistake.

LAST NIGHTS
EXERCISES
Of Local Schools Were
Largely Attended
and Enjoyed

Standing room only, and not much
Of that was the result of the large
crowd which gathered at the high
school assembly hall last evening to
witness the final exercises of the term
OF the classes Of Miss Herrick and
Miss Bryant.
The program began with two-act
playlet entitled the '6'Sleeping Beau

pacity Ralph Cowing as a prince

was the good fairy and Viva Fellows
had the part of the wicked one. Ag-
ness Ouillette and Andlew Blackwell
were the royal cooks. All those who
participated carried off their parts
to perfection and were greeted with
much we'll ll-deserved applause.
The music between the acts. sell
ections on the piano by Miss Rita
Castle were thoroughly enjoyed.
The motion song, Hop Toad" ex-
ecuted by Harry Mighels and and
Charles Stewart was greatly enjoy
ed This was followed by drill by

which it was executed was a surprise
/ to everyone
The boys sang when Visitor:
Come Round" and captured the au
dience from the start The "Sweep
ers'' sung by the little girls dressed
as nousemaids and the 'SRockaby'
song. the singers being dressed il
nurse attire were applauded to th'
echo. Ralph Cowing and Charlie
Stewart sang "Froggy' and the drill
of America was one of the best fea
lures of the evenings program.
The entire program was carrie,
through without a hitch and when on
takes into consideration that thes
classes represent the youngest child

Cannot Be Exaggerated.

The gravity of the political situa-
ton in this state so far as the re.
publican campaign is concerned
cannot be exaggerated. There has
been hope that enough patriotism
was left in the breast of the leaders
OF the party to effect settlement
of pending differences, the magni-
tude OF which is apparently increas-
ing rather than diminishing, to
take some positive steps to settle
these differences. Arnold Scherr
has made the patriotic proposition
to step aside if a like spirit of sac
rifice would be shown on the other
side. Ii is admitted that neither
OF the two candidates can be elect
ed with both running, and ii is
equally probable that neither could
be elected if either one withdrew.
There is only one way out, and
that is the one suggested. He is
not good party man who opposes
the proposition. We are told that
this Is lmpracticable because it
would disrupt the state organiza-
ton. What is the state organl-
zatIon" as against the partyP The

The more the State Journal looks
over the whole political situation
in this state the better vt is satisfied
that Arnold &. Srherr and the rest
of the ticket he heads will be elect

Ii is true that we have had bitter cam

warning factions but this is the first in
stance where party men in great num-
bers deemed themselves so outraged that
they resorted TO revolution. The mo.

sertion OF that sound leadership which
seems to have been withheld when most
urgently needed.-M ingo Republican.

own, individually, is concerned.
1t Is regarded as significant, how
ever, that every business and poiitl-
cal associate of this powerful leader
OF men, democratic and republican
alike, was an enthusiastic Swisher
tie. The senator was warned again
and again by loyal republicans of.
the lmpasse INTO which the affairs
OF the party were being allowed to-
drift. Under such circumstances
an abdicatlon of the responsibilities
of leadership was not permissible.
1t amounted to betrayal of the
interests of the party for which the
senator now displays such solici-
tude.
Senator Elkins had no excuse for
harboring any kind of doubt az to
the attitude of the rank and file OF
republicans toward Swisher. The
sentiment In his own county was

Monongalla, where the senator and
his sons have large business inter

some political influence, there are
practically no Swlsher men except
the ElkIns contingent and their

when few plain, strong words
from Senator Elklns would have
put qnetus on Swisherism. and
Mr.. Elkips was urged more than
once TO do his party the service of
speaking those words. His invar.
