ExTRAvAGANCE OR ECONOMY.

AS the election approaches the question iii the minds of the conserva-
tive voters of this county is, What can they do, to best conserve, the
municipality, state and county. Whom can they support that will
tend toward giving honest economical government
For their consideration we have the Republican, Democratic, Socia-
list and Hearst independence party candidates to consider The history
of the Democratic party in the state and county is before the people, it
having been the dominating party and having had control of the state and
county government for the past two years, whatever of good or bad gov
eminent has accrued to the people of this commonwealth they IS a party
re responsible for it. In the state government We have a long history
of extrayagant appropriations, as evidenced by the statutes of 1907, be-
ginning o page s2 and ending upon page 226, where it will be seen that
hundreds of thousands of dollars of the peoples money has been APP
proprated by the Democratic party for the support of the state govern
ment and the maintenance of many political positions unnecessary and of
no real value to the people. Following this, if we al believe the Demo-
cratic press If the state, we find that the recipients of these bounties
are now being taxed to raise a fund to induce the people to further
support this party in its extravaganza government For Nye county we
to the district attorney of this county a munffcent salary of $500 per
annum, a salary unheard Of heretofore in the history of the state for any
judicial or executive officer. The recipient of this salary was a man who
had spent some money and some time in behalf of the Democratic party
in the campaign of 1904. This same party has by its county platform
pledged itself to reduce this salary to a sum not to exceed $4,000 per n
mum, but further than that, the platform is silent upon the question of
fees and salaries. The Republican county platform has likewise pledged
its party to a like reduction in the salary of the district attorney and
goes further and pledges its members to the legislature if elected, to a
fair, equitable and just reduction of all of the salaries and fees of Nye
county officers.
Now, MI. Voter, if you ire out for good government and for the per-
manent, lasting welfare of the state and county, we ask you to determine
which set of candidates you will support-the candidates of the Demo-
cratic party. Or the candidates of the Republican party You have a fair
example before you of what the Democratic party will do if in power.
You have before you the platforms of the two parties and you "a see by
them If the Democratic party prevails in this election that they ire pedg-
ed % nothing except the reduction of salaries in the district attorneys
to a fair, honest reduction in the salaries and fees of all the county and
state officers On what side are you arraying yourself-on the side of
IN honest, economical government, or on the side of ali extravagant,
wasteful administration of the state and county money.

PAT FLANAGAN FOR U. S. SENATOR

Considering the question of United States senator, which this year
is to be determined by the popular vote of the people: The Demo-
Gratis present for the consideration of the voters of this state and
county the Hon. Francis G. Newands, who for many years has repre-
sented the state in the lower house of congress and for the past six years
has represented Nevada in the senate of the United States. His uncon-
.tradicted history shows him to be a man who in marrying the daughter
of the honorable and late William q. Sharon, who made his millions out
OF the Comstock in this state, became a millionaire and as such mill
ionaire sought to become a statesman by adopting Nevada a S his resi-
dence for political purposes. That during the tenure in Office Sen
|ator Newlands has fairly well served the people of the state during all
those years there can be n o doubt, but that he is entitled to serve it any
longer, there is grave doubt in the minds of the bona fde residents and
uncontradieted history shows has been a bona fde resident and citizen of
the state from his earliest youth up to the present. time, whose every dol
lar and every interest was made and lies in the state of Nevada, asks of
his people, the citizen voters of THE state, to support and honor him
with the position that Senator Newlands now holds and it remains for the
people of Nevada to say whether they will honor one of their own bona
hde citizens with that position with that position, or whether they will
still continue to confer the honor upon the California aristocrat, the
honored Francis G. Newlands. Nevadans, if you ar true to yourselves,
the honor will be conferred upon Patrick L. Flanagan of Reno after the
election in November.

TONOPAH LOOKS GOOD
TO FORMER RESIDENT

Mr., and Mrs. Ivy Mckay returned
to Tonopah Sunday from Salt Lake,
where they have been visiting rela-
tives. Mr.. Mckay was formerly fore
man OF the Golden Anchor and stated
yesterday that during his absence he
has visited mining camps in Nevada,
Utah and all the adjoining states, but
OF all the places he had been in Tono-
pah looked the best to him and It is
his intention to make Tonopah his
future home.

One OF the most energetic fights being made this campaign is that of
Colonel II. B. Maxson, Republican candidate for congress. The colonel
has been a steadfast and valuable member of the Republican party for
years and years, and he has never been deficient in enthusiasm. He has
been city engineer of Reno, clerk of the Reno board of school trustees.
and has always stood for progress. He is a man of strong personality,
"a hard worker, a steadfast Nevadan, and if he is elected, as he probably
will be, Nevada will never have a harder working representative in con
gress than Colonel Maxson.

The attacks of the Democratic press throughout the state upon P. :.
Flanagan, stating that he is unfriendly to labor are a amusing as they
are Hbelous. Our Democratic friends would have us to believe that they
actually fathered the organization of labor That idea is to make us
laugh, for the Democrats have never been in power enough during the
past fifty years-during when labor has made its greatest stides-to
father" anything. On the other hand the Democrats are doing their
best to monopoIze the supply of labor pap. Deprive labor of its vote and
see how long Democracy would kowtow to II.

The campaign of g. W. Summerfdd for state senator from this
county is one of the most popular in Nye county, and that he will be
elected by a hattering majority is practically assured. Although Mr.
Summerfed is a candidate on the Republican ticket, he will poll a large
Democratic vote, for he is known to be a man so thoroughly in touch
with the interests of Nye county, and so thoroughly a part of the life of
the county, that he will properly safeguard the county interests.
