Newlands Says
He Is Not Guilty

Referring to the anonymous
circular opposing P. L. Flanagan
on religious grounds, Senator
Newlands said: Il emphatically
deny that l have originated or
commenced this action in any
way. 1t is unamerican and be-
meath contempt. The attempt
of the republican press to foster
responsibility for this circular
upon me or my friends will fail.
My reputation for twenty years
in this state is worth nothing, un
less it convinces all of the breadth
and liberality of my views OF
such matters and appeal to th'
Catholic clergy to substantial
my statements. :"

Religion In

State Chairman Cannot
Find Origin Of Report

The anonymous circular pur-
porting to attack Flanagan on
account of his religion, was
printed, circulated and paid for
by the republican committee, as
a corrupt and insidious attack
upon Senator Newlands. The
democratic committee and Sem
ator Newlands denounce the cir
culars, and condemn their use as
a time worn, discredited and con-
temptible method to deceive the
people. Senator Newlands never
has countenanced and never vii
countenance an attack upon an!
man on account of his religion
and knowing this, the republican
committee is sending circular
broadcast over the state in
desperate effort to defeat New
lands.
The appearance of the circl
lars was to be simultaneous in a

Chief Justice
G. F. Talbot

1t is with regret we learn at
this late day that Supreme Chief !
Justice G. F. Talbot will not vis- |
it the people of Lincoln county |
personally before election day,
for it has been impossible for
him to leave his work at Carson
City, the supreme court business
being of such magnitude as to
compel him to stay on the bench
continually.
However, we wish to say to
every voter in the county of Lin
coin, and there are many new
ones this year, have never met
the Judge, that a vote for Talbot
means more to the entire state
than can be imagined. Those of
us here who have been in attend
ance in the district court while
he was our district judge, can
only do the duty we owe to him
by supporting him and using
every personal influence with
others in placing Talbot on the
, supreme bench another term.
His records are as spotless as
/ can be; he does not favor any
particular class or corporation
he is fair, honest and honorable
When a supreme Judge of astat'
f can render decision after decis
ion, and then have them sup
: ported by the highest branch O
I the law, he is a man we want t,
o keep. When the eight-hour lav
s was appealed to him and his as

| tion before that court, but afte

-Four months ago the discussion
of a new sheriff for Lincoln
county started, principally at
Phoebe. In the course of a few
weeks there sprung from the
different sections of the county
numerous candidates for the
Office. Searchlight was not far
behind in that move, and consid-
cradle careful thought exercised
in choosing a man from that ter
ritory that could make the fight
and do it successfully. Orrin H.
Smith was the man.

Mr.. Bishops attention was also
called to the Comet group of
claims, of which Prudential is
the chief owner, and control of
property was also carried back
to England.
The Lucky Star group COM
prises nearly three hundred acres
of ground, adjoining the historic
Day mine, whsch has been faith
omed to the depth of 1900 feet,
and which already has produced
some millions. Before he left
the camp, Mr.. Bishop directed
the management of the Lucky
