A large and enthusiastic crowd
greeted the speakers at the Bradley
opera house Tuesday evening on the
occasion of the opening of the Re
publican campaign in Elko county.
There was large number of smartly
dressed ladies present, whose pres
ence added color and charm to the
occasion, and that they took deep
interest in the talks of the orators
was manifested by their frequent and
hearty applause.
The gathering was presided over
by E. j. l.. Taber, who introduced the
speakers in turn and took occasion to
say that he was in the district attor-
ney's fight to win and that he is go
ing to win, if possible. Seats on the
state were occupied by number of
local Republicans.
Senator P. l.. Flanagan, Judge
Hugh H. Brown and Tom Fitch were
the orators of the evening, and while
all are able speakers, they represent
three separate and distinct types.
Pat Flanagan, the nervous, energetic
Celt-frank, impulsive, open-heart-
ed, without the trace of demagogue-

defeat will go down with flying colors
and with face to the roe. There are
no traitors among the Irish.
The senator's masterful address
was listened to with keen attention
by his hearers and was punctuated by
frequent and hearty applause. While
he offered no apologies for his rec
ord, public or private, his explana-
tons of his attitude on several ques-
tons, which had been twisted and
distorted by the opposition set him
right on these matters with his
hearers.
Judge Brown is the elegant, polish
ed, scholarly orator. Possessed Of
the calm, dispassionate, judicial tenn
permanent, he weighs we'll every word
before it is uttered and handles his
subject in lucid and logical man
ner. One point in the judges argu-
ment in favor of Taft's election is
perhaps not generally understood,
and that is that the next president
will appoint four, and possibly five,
judges of the supreme court of the
United States.
Mr.. Brown proved himself to be
one of the most eloquent speakers in
Nevada, and his address won him
many votes. But there is more than
the orator to Hugh Brown. He is a
clean-cut, high class lawyer and
gentleman, man that would be an
ornament to the supreme bench of
| any state.

were ready to pay the rental demand
ed. This time having arrived, the
manager of the clothing place called
on the German, and, in friendly way
remarked that he fancied his firm
would take the ground floor after the
first of May. and that the dispenser OF
lager had better be looking for new
quarters.
But l don't want to move" protested
the German.
We'll. but you'll have to. You're a
poor man, and we are rich, and can
pay three times as much for this room
as you can. If you go out quietly and
make no fuss about it we'll help you
to find a new place. If you stay. here
at ALL you'll pay rent that will beg

We'll, you come in two weeks und

Two weeks later the manager called
again. The German was all smiles.
