POSTMASTER HOFER CON-
QUOTING SERIES OF LECTURES

Postmaster Hofer delivered an ad-
dress before the pupils of the public
schools upon the postal laws and regu-
iations of the United State. There
We're a few visitors present and all
enjoyed the address greatly. The
deeply interesting subject was treated
in detail and several facts were point
ed out which have been ignored num-
berleSS times.
Mr.. Hofer will again address the
students and the public, which is in
vited to these addresses, on the fifth
of next month.
The subject will be the money order
system and postal savings system
and the governmental relation
to them. This is a highly instructive
lecture and will go far toward the ex-
planation Of the savings bank laws Of
which so many are in favor.
These lectures are a part of a course
of instruction for the benefit of the
youth OF the United States.

1.-THE RETORT
COURTEOUS"

why do newspapers lie so much ?"
asked a member of the legislature
yesterday of a group Of newspaper
men in the Sagebrush Club.
Because we are compelled to take
most of our information from liars"
said an Old journalist who knew his
business. Then he continued
"A public man gets up to argue
with an opponent and he gets all 'het'
but his opponent takes advantage of
his eXtravagant statements
"A reporter takes down the whole
speech in short hand and reproduces
it in public print. The speaker comes
round and calls the reporter a liar
and the editor fool and the op-
ponent gets up next day and makes
him acknowledge his statements and
either to apologize, correct the record,
or suffer defeat.
9The net result is that the news
paper is a liar and that man never
does forgive the newspaper for point
ing out by it that he is the liar, not
the newspaper"

MAY ACT FOR
THE FALLOk
SETTLERS

RENO, Jan. 23.-The legislature of
Nevada is to appeal to the United
States government on behalf of the
settlers of Churchill county in the
hope that the homes of many OF them
will be saved. In the senate at Car
son yesterday special commute on
irrigation and reclamation was Gre
ated and Hon. r. l.. Douglas, senator
from Churchill county was made chair
man of the cOmmitte. The purpose
of this committee is to prepare a
joint resolution. This will be passed
by both houses of the legislature and
forwarded to Washington probably
fact that many of the settlers of
Churchill county have found it i'm
possible to keep up the payments re-
quired under the reclamation act.
They have been unable to clear their
ground fast enough to put in crops
and at the same time earn money
Will WHICH W meet tle laws require
ments. AS a result many Of the
homesteaders, if the payments are in
sisted upon will be forced to surrend-
er their holdings and allow their land,
with improvements, to go back to the
government. The resolution will fur
ther point out that if the homestead
ers are given an opportunity to cult
vate their land and SOW it, the crops
will soon begin to bring returns to
the settlers. The problem will then
have been solved and the Carson pro-
ject will have become a sure success
whereas it now seems doomed to
failure.
Senator Douglas passed through
Reno last night on his way to Fallon
where he will consult with the set
tiers with a view of learning more
fully their views and plans as to the
best method of solving this problem
Douglas is one of the largest private
land owners in Churchill county His
holdings are in no way effected by
the government regulations. But
government regulations be so arrang-
ed that they will be more fair to the
man with small means who come into
thewe st to make a home.

fine REPORT is
MADE ON NEVADA

The Daily Tribune of Commerce has
the following among other things, to
report from it's data for 1908 in re-
gard to Nevada's mining outlook:
"At GOldfield much development
work was done and a large production
maintained, chiefly by two companies
The output probably did not exceed
that of 1907. At Tonopah the usual
activity prevailed, and Silver Peak
began production. Much development
and some production is reported from
Phoebe. Shipments Of gold ores be-
gan from Rawhide and of silver ores
from the Hornsilver camp, both in
Esmeralda county. Development work
continued in the Mason valley copper
district, near Yerington. Production
Of copper on a large scale was be-
gun at Ely.
The mining industry in Nevada is
really in much better condition at
the end of 1908 than in 1907, notwith-
standing the fact that a number of
camps have been virtually idle.
THE output of gold in Nevada was
$12,O90,21S, against SIS 90 in 1907,
and the production of silver was g.
322, S2S fine ounces, against s, $780,
500 in 1907"

STORM STILL
DOES DAMAGE

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 23-Light
west wind and occasional showers to-
night marked the passing of the great
storm that has deluged the state for
days, raising the rivers to the high
est point known in years and causing
the inundation Of thousands of acres
of farm land, around Sacramento,
Stockton and Antioch and the de-
struction of crops representing a big
sum.
The floods and washOuts that have
demoralized railway traffic in all di
rections appear to be over SO far as
new breaks are concerned but trains
are still taking roundabout routes
to reach their destinations and ar
irving hours behind schedule
The main line Of the Southern Pa
Gifts which is operating through
Stockton is completely blocked to-
night by a washout between that city
and French camp. The route to Stock
ton via Niles Canyon has been re-
stored, however, and both lines from
this city 10 San Jose are again in
operation, repairs having been made.
STOCKTON, Jan. 23.-Water has
run off the streets of Stockton very
fast and street cars are running on
both lines reaching the city limits.
None of the mills or warehouses in
Stockton were flooded and the over
flow was confined to portion of the
business section and residence dis
tricts.
Stockton business streets are all
dry tonight and merchants are resum-
ing trade. Water at no time got into
any business houses on Main street,
the principal business street.

PlNAFORE IN SHAPE
FOR MONDAY NIGHT

A full rehearsal of PinaTore is call
ed for tonight.
This absorbing topic has held the
attention OF the people of Carson for
some time and the anticipation of the
play Monday night is very keen.
The seat sale is surprising the
fondest hopes of the persons who have
the production in charge and those
who have not yet obtained their seats
will do well to do SO at once.
Mr. Platt is greatly pleased with
the showing made at rehearsals and
Mr.. Vanderheth, the stage director,
says the production will equal profes
sional performances in many respects.
The principals have done some
great work and are showing great
ability and aptness in their parts.
A full dress rehearsal will be he'd
stage setting.
The orchestra, the best organization
of the kind Carson has ever seen,
is handling the music in all-profess-
ional style.
Many are the compliments from
those who have seen the rehearsals
and the participants look forward to a
hearty reception at the hands of their
friends.
Many people from Gardnervile and
Reno as well as the other towns
around here will come in to see the
play.

TO AID BOTH SIDES

That more power is to be given the
State Railroad Commission now seems
assured. The promptness with which
the Senate committee began its work
argues that the commission will be
given a square deal and that is all
that it has asked. Many matters Of
grave Importance to the State are in
the hands of this commission which
has shown in it's brief eXistance that
given the power, it will not misuse it.
The commission has asked the repeal
of the miXimum rate clause which
fOrbidS the enactment Of rates that
are above a certain fixed amount. and
it now seems certain that this request
will be needed by the Legislature.
When the maximum rate clause
was inserted in the bin creating the
commission, it was put there as a
safety valve to prevent any injustice
to common carriers who come under
the rulings of the commission. Those
who had studied the question saw that
the power placed in the hands of the
three men who would constitute the
commission practically was unlimited.
To an INSCRIPTIONS body, this would
have been made a means of eXtortion
and graft that might take years to
end.
By it's acts in office, its endeavOr tC
be fair to all sides of every cOntrO-
versy, the railroad commission has
proved that if allowed to take full
charge of the situation, no untoward
act would bring the state into a tangle
of litigation. Truly, the commission
has been beset with law suits, but
these were brought to test the cOnsti-
tutionality of the laws and are yet un-
settled. At best the maximum rate
provision has failed to accomplish
what it was intended to do and in a
way has put a burden on the railroads
that they would rather see removed
While the rate on certain classes of
commodities is fair to both shipper
and carrier, as tn1 lower classes of
goods are reached, the rate becomes
SO small that in some cases it is
an injustice to the railroad.
Perhaps that is an argument which
will have weight in the deliberations
of the committees of both senate and
assembly regarding railroad legesla-
ton. 1t should have weight for the
State of Nevada is too big in Other
ways to work an injustice on the rail
roads that aid in building up their
tributary territory. The whole mat
ter is one of justice, both to the rail
! road commission and to the railroads.
Let the one have the power that it
asks and it will deal more fairly to-
ward the ones it is created to con-
troll than an arbitrary rate which is
immOvable and takes no account of
conditions either adverse or favorable.
