conference thirteen conventions,
four declarations and three wishes
were adopted. Mr.. Dickinson dis
cussed the recent conventions, one Of

Germany agreed to submit to the
Hague the questions arising out of
the Casablanca affair. The questions
involved were more or less of what
is termed national honor" A spec

ton to the Hague the controversy as

Secretary Dickinson, in concluding.
"The tide of public sentiment all over
the world is setting strongly in this
direction. Looking to the progress
in peace measures of the last hun

years, the hope may well be enter
tanned that disarmament will become
a reality, and that the people may en-
joy not only the blessings OF peace,
but the blessings of peace without
the crushing burden OF preparedness
for war.

A RIDICULOUS RUMOR

A rumor was circulated Tuesday that the board of county COM
mssoners was having a hard time to borrow sufficient funds with
which to pay off the monthly Indebtedness of Ne county. The in
ventor of this story had but little to do when he started it going the
rounds and could have been occupied in a manner that would have at
istering a knock.
The county commissioners have not had the slightest trouble to
obtain money to conduct the affairs of the county and on the other
hand have received several offers of financial assistance. Last month
when it was necessary to make the first borrow owing to the county
funds being tied up in the Nye and Ormsby County bank, the Nevada
First National bank of this city came to the aid and loaned a goodly
sum This same bank again made another loan yesterday. Besides
this the commissioners have received communications from other
banking institutions willing to advance money to the county.
A loan was also made yesterday by Ed Clifford, Sr. a pioneer Of
Ne county, who has made his fortune here. Nj. Clifford stated
he was willing to place in the treasury of Nye county any amount de-
sired with practically no time limit. This move On the part Of MI.
Clifford is commendable and shows the true spirit of those having
advancement of this section. Entirely unlike those who profess to be
working for the good of the community and who with every boost ad-
ministers a knock, or do their boosting in such a manner that in the
end II proves more than detrimental to the place in which they re-
side.
In every town and camp in this state you will find such ndi-
viduals always out with their little hammer and everlastingly pro
coed to inform the public that such and such a person is not working
TOT the interests Of all concerned and is a detriment to the town, and
then IN the same breath state that the district IS the best and most
prosperous in the state and so on with a whole lot of trash describ-
ing strikes that have never been made and telling Of veins that do not
exist.
The quicker a town gets rid of a parasite Of this kind the better
they will be and it was evidently a monger of this tyne that circu-
lated the report pertaining to the failure of the commissioners in
their search for funds. A report that was untrue and ridiculous TO
the extreme, but one that can and will do the community harm
when it reaches the outside world.

WITHOUT CAUSE.

A great many newspapers in America, as Roosevelt shook the
dust of Washington from his feet, published leader editorials express
ing the nameless JOY experienced by holders of great wealth because
Of his departure.
If that be true, it is the creates. tribute to Roosevelt that current
literature, or history will pay
Are the great corporations of the country rejoicing because he is
no longer president? What privileges were these seeking that
Roosevelt would not allow, that Taft will allow?
Is Taft so different from Roosevelt?
When Roosevelt practically nominated Taft for the presidency,
was he deceived in the man?
He knew him weI-they knew one another we'll No man in
America had a better chance to study the inner nature of Roosevelt
than had Taft.
No man in America, no man in all the world had a chance to re-
anze more fully the things that Roosevelt, down deep in his nature,
stood for-the things he opposed and the things he condemned, than
had William H. Taft.
And we think that Roosevelt knew Taft as Taft knew Roosevelt,
and that Taft will make good according to the Roosevelt understand
ing of him.
True, he is not making any professions just now. Mr.. Taft is not
shouting to the galleries at ALL Mr.. Taft begins his duties as presi-
dent, in a quiet, inonensive. modest way.
In his maiden message he says: Il venture to suggest" but many
a man who has "ventured to suggest" meant more by his asking per-
mission to speak than another would who said "You must"
Let us not forget and let not the malefactors of great wealth for
get that during the campaign, Taft kept constantly before the mind
of the American public, the fact that he stood for the things that
Roosevelt stood for. That was the means he took of inviting the
confidence and support of the American voter.
In the final showdown, we believe those who would arrogate to
themselves all power because they have a large per cent of all wealth,
will find Taft standing boldly between them and those whom they
would exploit just as Roosevelt stood.
Wrong is rampant, that is, wrong from the standpoint of the
many and particularly from the standpoint of those who are mill
tated against it.
General Bingham. who is at the head of the New York city police,
says he was offered last year 100000 by one industry if he would
keep quiet and let it ply its calling.
General Bingham refused. There are thousands of General Bling
hams who would refuse, but the announcement by him of this fact,
goes to prove the wonderful temptation that lies in the path of those
entrusted with great responsibility.
The Bonanza believes that Mr.. Taft is one who will refuse to let
wrong be done; that his intelligence will prevent him being imposed
upon and that his sense of integrity will hold him above SHINING.

PLAYING TO THE GALLERY.

Hon. Frank F. Langan, Judge of the first judicial district of Ne
vada, issued an order at Dayton yesterday directing the issuance of
citations summoning George Graham Rice and Merrill A. league,
editors of the Mining Financial News of Reno, to appear before the
court at Carson City on April "a and show cause why they should
not be found guilty and punished for contempt of court as the result
of an open letter directed to him and published in the Mining Finan-
cal News.
Judge Langan is now in the "limeight' for he has gone and done
it, He has cited Editors Rice and league for accepting his chal-
lenge in relation to the State Bank and Trust company affairs.
Judge Langan appointed George Hall of Reno received OF the Nye
and ormsby County banks in the face of the evidence that Judge
Averil of the fifth judicial district had previously appointed j. j.
Mullen and Gilbert Ross receivers of the closed banks. Then Judge
Langan, it is lleged-note the word alleged, when you use that
word it is not lbelous-made a statement why he made the appoint
ment and to the general reader was very amusing in its entirety.
Judge Langan's action was criticised and denounced by scores Of
taxpayers of Nye county. They had a right to criticse him. These
taxpayers had paid into the county 100000 which had been deposited
in the Nye and Ormsby County bank in Tonopah and they want men
whom they know are honest, upright citizens, which Messrs, Mullen
and Ross are, to secure and return this money to the county treas
ury, if there was a possible chance. Judge Langan is only a human
being and is subject to criticism or ridcule the same as any other
person.
Is Judge Langan trying to throttle a free press?
( 1t is time for every newspaper in the state to take a firm stand
with the people of the state against bank wreckers and their allies.
The man who holds you up in the street and takes your money,
if caught, is given life Imprisonment, while the president of a bank
takes your hard-earned savings, deposited with him, is IAN honest
man" and is allowed to roam the land at will.
The looter of a bank is the lowest type of a criminal, and EH-
tor league had the manhood to SO inform Judge Langan and the
public in general.
The Judge will find that his playing to the gallery has not even
been appreciated by those gods"
An eastern exchange has something to say about advertising that
has a peculiar local interest just at this time. 1t is this: Adequate
advertising for a store is coming to be a creed for merchants who
have adequate business hopes, plans, ideas, convictions.
If there's something wrong about the stores advertising, there's
somthing wrong about the store-and it's the same something

If some newspaper would print an article that ali of the tall finn
bers in the Sierras in Inyo county were breaking off two feet from
the ground and that thousands had fallen in a single day, it is a safe
prediction that ninety-nine out of every hundred PAPERS would re-
print the article and elaborate upon it as being the gospel truth
Some time ago a joker published in one of the Bishop papers a story
OF the demolition of the forests of Inyo county by porcupines eating
the bark off of monster giants of the forests and resulting in the
death OF thousands of these trees. The article has been repubHshed
In nearly every paper Of the union, when in fact the story was a
canard. There are not enough porcupines in the country to kill a
wild rose bush, let alone a tree. Porcupines live upon roots Of small
wild brush and vines.
