OF arrivals are noted daily There are
more men in there than there is

Captain w. l.. Cox, superintendent
of the Nevada State Police is in this
city today and had the following to
say. regarding the camp of Rawhide
which is the mecca of all mining men
at the present time:
Rawhide is certainly the greatest
boom camp the state has ever seen
and one that from present appearan
ces will make history for Nevada.
AS to the sanitary condition Of
Rawhide the statement sent out re
sarding the deaths there have. been
greatly exaggerated and the reports
have had no foundation whatever
Since the ffthteenth day OF Sep
TENDER there haze been 90 deaths in
the camp and these from pneumonia.
Since the Miners Union hospital was
opened in Rawhide during the latter
part of last December they have treat
ed over 300 patients with various di-
seaSes and out of this number there
have only been nine deaths recorded.
The fatalities have resulted most
" among the unemployed men who
have come to the camp and have been
unable to secure employment. They
have had 10 undergo many hardships
and have contracted pneumonia in
this way.
The authorities of Esmeralda coun
ty are handling the sanitary condi

made on a lease adjoining them and
there is no reason why they will not
also get the goods.
HAL Mighels Of this city has a
number of leases in the camp and has
men at work developing them. He
also has his holdings well situated
and stands chance of coming out
of the camp rich man.
Take it all through it is the wonder
of all the mining camps of the state
or any other and mining engineers
who 90 over the ground every day
from all parts of the world are free
in their statements that If the lodges
so down as they have done in the
other camps Of tho state Rawhide Will
be richer than all of them put to-
gether.
"That is the only question now, DO
the mines 90 down? and this can be
answered With a certainty within tho
next sixty days as equipments for
deep mining are being installed in diff
! ferent parts of the camp and shafts
/ will be run to a depth that will de
/ termine this question and also the
greatness of the camp.
"One noticeable feature is the lacl
Of crime in the camp and beyond {
doubt this fact is due to the presence
of the state police force there more
than any other one thing. When Raw
hide is taken into consideration thi:
Nevada State Police is the best thin:
that ever happened.
Mr. Wilson intends to return t
Rawhide shortly where a. good posi-
ton awaits him on a new daily pape

THE PRICE OF WOOL

A good deal has been said about the
prosperity OF the wool
grower under the Republican rule.
We were told that the Republican par
ty has always been the father of high
prices for wool and on this issue the
party orators and newspapers have
fooled the voters many times. What
can the same party say now when the
price of wool is down so low that the
mountain States have refused to sell
at the ruinous prices and are holding
their clip for the advance they think
will come. We would ask our Repub-
lican contemporaries if 6 to cents
per pound is what the G. O. P. pro-
missed the electors at the last presi-
dental election? There has been no
reduction in the tariff. the Republi-
can party is still in power and yet
the depression. We have been told
that the Republican party was re-
sponsible for the advance IN the price
of wool. Is it responsible too for cut
ting the price of wool in half within a
year? The wool growers would like
to know We congratulate the wool
growers on their attitude in refusing
to sell at the ruinous prices now being

THE TRUST FUND

Elsewhere in this paper will be found the reso-
lutions which were adopted by the trustees of the
Prohibition Trust Fund Association in view of
the death of DR.. CHARLES E. LATIMER the secre-
tary of that organization.
Readers of The National Prohibitionist will re-
member that it already has been announced that
Dr. LAr1MER made such disposition of his for
tune that the whole will ultimately go into the
treasury of the Trust Fund Association for the
furtherance of the Prohibition cause. In this DR.
LATIMER set example worthy of imitation, and
any Prohbitionist who feels moved to make tes-
tamentary disposition of property in behalf of the
Prohibition should correspond with the
counsel of the association, ALFRED l.. MAN1ERRE

SHALL WE HAVE A NATIONAL CON-
FER ENCE?

The National ProhibitiOnist believes that
the situation now confronting the Prohibi-
ton party warrants war council of the
best intelligence and maturest Judgment of
the party's working force. 1t believes that
it will be wise to call meeting of the full
national committee at some date in the near
future and to have in connection with that
meeting a national conference of Prohibition
workers.
At such conference, matters of party
work should be discussed; plans of organiza-
ton should be maturely considered; defective
organization, wherever existing and for what
ever reason, should be carefully scrutinized,
and suggestions made toward remedying its
defects Those states which have won great
success in the election which is just past, can
place before us their plans and methods in
detail for the information of other states
where success has not been attained, and we
can all get courage and inspiration from each
other for the great fight that is before us.
We feel confident that such meeting can
be made to result in very great good for the
party and we present this as a suggestion to
the party at large and shall be glad to hear
from the readers of The National Prohibi-
ZIONIST and to place their views before the
party.
Shall we have a national conference?

MR.. HUGHES AND DIR. RUSSELL

1t seems to us important that there be left no
doubt in the public mind concerning the veracity
and accuracy of the charge made by the Prohi-
bitionists during the campaign that CHARLES E.
HUGHES, the Republican candidate for governor
of New York in the recent election, was at one
time director of liquor selling company. Of
course, Mr.. HUGHES has been reelected and what
ever he has been or has done, he will now be
governor of New York for another term but the
enemies of the Prohibition party shall not have
the pleasure, if we help it, of declaring the
Prohibition party and its papers liars in case
where we bravely told the plain truth.
We are somewhat insstent upon this point, be-

RESPONSIBILITY

RESPONSIBILITY
The average Prohbitionist is keeny alive as
to his responsibility for voting the Prohibition
ticket, but it sometimes seems that some of lis
do not so clearly recognize our obligations in the
matter of political duties that really just
as imperative as our duty to vote
The man who recognizes his duty to vote the
Prohibition ticket ought also to recognize his
duty to see that that vote is counted and prop
erly recorded Hopelessly thrown away is that
vote which is cast for righteousness by voter
too Indifferent to the legal means at his
command to secure its proper recording. In the
election just past thousands of votes, numbering
possibly total almost as great as the vote that
will be credited to us in the final returns, were
cast for the Prohibition candidates, but, through
the Indifference and carelessness and crininality
of old party election officials were not counted
for the candidates for whom they were cast.
This was possible because we lacked the local
organization that should have put watchers in
every polling place and because, in the absence
of such watchers, own people lacked devo-
ton to the cause, willingness to sacrifice rest
and the necessary nerve to face the unpleas-
ant surroundings and perhaps insolent abuse
place, if they appeared there as Watchers
The man who recognizes his duty to vote the
Prohibition ticket ought also to recognize his
duty to support the Prohibition propaganda.
There is great host of generous Prohibitionists,
men who have given goriously for the Proh-
biton cause some of them for many years. Per
haps in no other great movement in the worlds
history have there ever been so many i1lustra-f
tons of unselfsh generosity. On the other hand,
the Prohibition party contains thousands Of men
who, partly because they are never approached
by the representatives of our committees, partly
because they do not appreciate the Importance
OF party contributions and partly because they
think that other things are more important, give
little or nothing to the work of propagatng the
principles of the party. This ought not so to be
Every man who sees political duty clearly enough
to vote the Prohibition ticket, ought to be will
ing to help to pay the expenses of the organiza
ticn that makes it possible for him to VOTE and
to pay also toward placing the facts which make
him Prohbitionist before other men, Yet it
ought to be said in passing that the deficiency
OF contributions is often due to our defective
organization. If we had live local committees
in each municipality and each township, thou
