THE SHAME OF 1T

The Wells Herald in commenting
on the failure of the Legislature TO
appropriate money for the Seattle EX-
position and ,he fact that the EXposi-
ton guides told the visitors that tae
State OF Nevada was too poor" to
make an exhibit, says:
The above is a sad commentary On
this. the best mining state in the I'm
ion today. 1t will be many months
before the state RECEIVERS from tn"
blow in not making Il Crcditable eN-
hibit at Seattle. Too poor" How
does that sound, especially in the lace
Of the fact that the recent Legislature
whica knocked out the bill to MAKE
an appropriation at Seattle donated
thing under the sun. a creditable eX-
hibit of our mineral resources at Sc
attic would have been worth hundreds
of times the amount spent in making
the display, but some OF the narrow
minded members OF the last iegisla-
ture could not see that advertising
would be of any benefit. Nevada, to
progress, needs some live ones in her
Legislature. Such fossilized notions as
prevented the appropriation for tlc
exhibit. at Seattle should be placed
under a blanked and buried.
Some state papers have made II
great ado over the mineral exhibit at
the recent mining congress at Gold
field, where scarcely 25j strangers
viewed it. 1t would have been ten
thousand times better to have had the
exhibit at Seattle, where thousand
would iave seen it every day.
Thus another opportunity Tor IN"
betterment of Nevada has gone Il
slimmrring.

nesses from various part ol the state,

out to Mr.. lnjun would have some
thing OF deterrent affect in such
cases, and 1t Is earnestly hoped that
the time will come when the Indian
purchaser will be punished as well as
the man who sells or gives him liq-
uor. Our observation is that the law
is not effective and does not accom-
piish the desired ends. However. the
tratic should be stopped and the ou-
thorities can only work In accordance
with the law given them to enforce.

RIGHTS
PROCLAIMED

main reason for suffrage is cOmmun-
| ity of interest between the sexes. II
| is not in any sense fight for rights
but the logical evolution OF Justice
THE purpose Of the equal franchise
society is TO promote the welfare OF
! women by securing the national, state
and local electoral franchise for wo-
men, because it believes in the poll
tioal and clvil equality OF men and
women.
The electorate should represent
the whole nation, and a system OF
government under which one half OF
the nation is disfranchised is not a
truly representative national system
I'VE are inviting people to becom"
members OF our society in order TO
contribute to the advancement OF pub
lie education by the promotion Of our
cause. We feel that II order to OBJ
tain the eniranchisement Of women il
is not necessary for lis to initiate
methods which are being used in 9th
cr countries.
1T has been said to NE repeatedly
by men in public life and men in pri-
vate life that when the women of the
United States unite in demanding the
vote they will get it. And think
that is perfectly true, and that there
fore, what is needed TO further the
suffrage cause is TO give all sorts and
kinds OF women the opportunity Of
listening to the speakers who will
explain what the suffrage will mean
to us all.
Most Of the men ! have met ap-
parently are willing to cooperate
with us and have listened to what
We have said with courtesy and con-
sderatiOn. 1t has not seemed neces-
sary in the past, and | do not think
it will b enecessary in the future, for
us to 90 out TO the street corners
and shrek Onr propaganda at the
passerby."

THAT UNCERTAIN BLOW

The right swings that ketchel de
livered last Saturday in his endeav-
or to obliterate Mr.. johnson were Ger
tainly wonders in their way, but they
failed to reach their destination.
Mr.. Johnson seemed TO nave been
able in some way to anticipate their
coming and by stepping back al the
Opportune moment about TWO fcrI he
only got the atmospheric tanning e.
feet while the blow Itself went into
space.
These blows almost broke ketch
ellis heart but never bothered Mir
Johnson'S jaw. The colOred gentle
man had a way of starting to hit his
opponent with his right fist and before
the blow got ..alf going he would
seem TO change his mind, for no ap-
parent reason and start his left going
He would seem to want to bang
ketchell in the stomach with one
hand and then conclude to soak him
with the other hand in the jaw.
ketchell stated to the press re-
pOrterS that e would make the col
ored man lead and ne certainly did.
There seems to be such peculiar
uncertainty about Johnson's leads
and landings that We advise Mr.. ket-
chell to deal in future with some pugi
list with less viasciliating DISPOSE
tiOn and a man who will agree f.
stay in one place long enough to be
