The White Pine news. [volume] (Ely, Nev.) 1906-1910, 1908-11-01

RENO, Oct. 31.-lt has just come
to light that the Democratic party has
printed and intends to circulate by
thousands over the state the day be-
fore election, too late for its spurious
ness to be shown, an alleged copy of
the Burke eight hour bill which was
defeated i'm 1901 by Democratic
senate
The spurious copy is manufactured
from copy of the present eight hour
law and the object is to make Ii APP
pear to voters too late for contradic-
ton that the bill that Flanagan with
practically the whole Democratic SEN
ate of the twenty-first session of the
legislature voted against was almost
exactly similar TO the present act.
i'm point of the fact that the entire
construction of the Burke bill is diff
fercnt from the present eight hour
law and no single part of it uniform
with the present act.
RENO, New, Oct. 3O.-Harry j.
Humphreys, chairman of the Repub-
lican state central committee, pub
lished the following signed statement
today:
Il have in my possession copy of
a telegram alleged to have been sent
TO the newspapers of Nevada over
the signature of Peter Somers,
chairman of the Democratic state CEN
tral committee from which | quote
i'm part THE anonymous circular
purporting TO attack Flanagan on ae-
count of his religion was printed, cir
culated and paid for by the Repub-
lican committee as n covert attack
on Senator Newlands and party to
the same effect ending with the dec
laration that instructions were issued
from Republican headquarters to Re-
publican press of the state to use IL
simultaneously and comment on it
editorially.
Concerning this statement that
the circular emanated from RepuDll-
can headquarters directly or indi-
rectly, or was circulated by the Re-
publieans or was heard at Republican
Headquarters until after its distribu-
tion over the state, | shall not be
chosen of words but declare IL an
unmitigated lie. That its source is
from some person bitterly opposed to
Flanagan and other Republicans is
shown by the fact that in Washoe
county equally scurrilious attacks in
circular form printed on the same
paper and in the same type and char
acterized by the same kind of abu-
sive language is being insidiously cir
culated against Park, Fitzgerald,
Dodge. Sullivan, Republican nomi-
nees for the assembly in which Ian
guage is used equally abusive and
derogatory as against Flanagan.
One of these circulars is entitled
George Park, read his record and
another Fitzgerald for the assem-
bly, is impossible and another 'Not-
ers of Washoe beware All circu-
lars denouncing Republican candi-
dates with extreme virulence. When
these circulars, although more radl-
cally different from the yellow circu-
lar which the Democratic party has
caused to be distributed at every Re
publican meeting in the state, were
called to the attention of the Repub-
lican committee it was the consensus
of opinion that these circulars We're
beneath even a Democratic commit
tee and must emanate from some de-
generate whose mind was wayering
between idiocy and insanity.
But now with the statement which

RRYAN MAKES APPEAL.

WINCHESTER. Ind. Oct. 81
William j. Bryan in winding up his
tour today issued an appeal to the
public. In it he reviews reforms for
which the Democratic party is striy-
ing. and says:
The Democratic party seeks to
secure honesty in lis movements
through honest policies and popular
government through direct elections.
1t desires to secure peace in indus
try, competition in trade, security to
depositors and justice to tax payers.
The Democratic party appeals to the
awakened conscience of the nation
and a sense of justice in human heart
and TO growing desire of brotherhood
With a Democratic victory for the ma
tional ticket, with a Democratic con-
gress and with the moral force of a
popular victory | believe we can
compel the senate to yield to the ex-
pressed will of the people and permit
passage of the more urgent of re-
forms. The Democratic party offers
prospect of remedial legislation, and
while it does not do as some reform
ers would like TO do, a Democratic
victory will secure as much of re-
forms as now attendant. in fact, the
only reforms within reach.
Mr.. Bryan comments upon the Re-
publican claim of a panic to come II
Bryan is elected and demands Taft
to give a bond that the present panic
will go If he (Taft). is elected. He
also protests against interference of
President Roosevelt with the cleo
tion. saying it is not fair for the pres
ident to use his Office as If IL were q
partisan or political asset.

NEW YORK. Oct. 51--Before a
monster crowd at Durland's Riding
academy, Secretary Root brought
forth the issues of the present cam
paign, comparing the two candidates
and the respective platforms upon
which they stand.
He eelarly demonstrated the su-
periority of the Republican eandi-
date as one who has been tried in
the dealings of public issues and
found to be a peerless advocate OF
Industrial progress and capable of
manipulating national affairs to the
best advantage of the people. Mr..
Roots address was continually IN
'terrupted by cheering and cries FOR
the Republican leader.
Secretary Root spoke as follows:
| wish to state some reasons which
lead me TO believe that Mr.. Bryan 5
election to the presidency would be
followed by general and long contin-
ned business disaster; that the re-
coyery. now In progress, from the
panic of last year. would stop; that
production would be curtailed, many
workmen thrown out of employment,
wages lowered, the market for farm
products and manufactures reduced,
and the income upon Investments of
private individuals, of savings banks
and insurance companies, of chart

between 1898 and the election of Mr..
Mckinley, in 1896.
Whatever may be the develop
ment of of our industrial system in
the future, no considerable produc-
tive enterprise goes on under the
present system without the use of
capital as we'll as labor. Sometimes
in this combination capital gets more
than its share of the profits and some
times the capital is lost altogether
and then there is no profit and there
are no wages coming from the en-
terprise that has failed. Just as
productive enterprise stops when
there is strike because labor is not
satisfied with its wages, 50 productive
enterprise stops when the owner of
capital ceases to believe that he Will

CATTLE-Receipts were very light today,
only about 100 cars being reported in. lnf
cluded among this number were about
twenty cars of cows and heifers, besides
a small number OF stock cattle, odds and
ends. Thus II happened that the supply
OF beef cattle was by no means large.
1t was fortunate that the receipts of beef
steers were not very large this morning,
as. the situation was by no means favor
able to the selling interests. Chicago re-
ported q large run with the market weak
lc lower. The market here closed off
weak and lower yesterday on all but the
best grades, and there seemed 20 be a
feeling of weakness in the air this morn
ing. After such a phenomenal advance in
prices as has been experienced during the
last several days II is only natural TO
expect some reaction and buyers appeared
TO be expecting something OF the kind to-
day. Thus the trade did not present such
a snappy appearance as was the case all
last week, but buyers were a little inclined
10 feel their way. Thus while some cattle
looked about steady with yesterday, others
were Bower. To call the market generally
10c lower than Monday would just about
cover the situation, the weakness being the
most noticeable on the common TO pretty
decent killers.
Cows and heifers we're in good demand
this morning, and although the offerings
were quite liberal considering the total re-
ceipts OF cattle, still the trade was fairly
active and most everything changed hands
in fair season In the morning. The prices
paid, as a rule, did not show any very ma
terial change as compared with yesterday,
at least not on the better class OF Killers.
Only a few stocksns and feeders were
offered and they brought about steady
