Political Announcements
Letter From George Springmeyer

Letter From George Springmeyer
The following circular letter is being
sent out to Republican voters in Ne.
vada by George Springmeyer, candidate
for the Republican nomination for At.
torney.G General:
Goldfeld, Nevada, Aug. 26. 1910.
Dear Sir: I have in my previous let.
ters told you of the bitter fight being
waged against me by the powerful cor
porate interests Of this State, for the
purpose of electing Hugh Brown. the
railroad attorney, to be Attorney.Ge
eral of our State.
The people are aroused as never be-
fore. and l am more than ever deter
mined to defeat this gigantic conspiracy.
and with the help of the voters I will
fight to the bitter end to take the reins
of government from the hands of the
puppets Of the railroads. The glorious
victory of Hiram johnson in freeing
California from the vicious Southern
Pacific ring has aroused that company
to the fact that Nevada is about to de.
clare her independence. AS a result.
the subsidized press of this State from
Reno to Goldfeld is filled with praise of
Hugh Brown, the attorney for the
Tonopah g. Goldfeld Railroad.
Mr.. Browns law firm is at the pres
emit time representing the Southern
Pacific Railroad in all the land cases
now pending before the Supreme Court
wherein the railroad companies are
carefully and cunningly working to
steal from the people 750.0 900 acres of
the most valuable lands in this State, a
mineral domain greater than any in the
world to-day. With Hugh Brown as
Attorney General, and his partner, MI.
Campbell, as attorney for the Southern
Pacific, is there any doubt in your
mind as to the inevitable result? The
United States is alarmed at the present
time On account of the Alaska coal land
steal; but here we have a greater,
more shameful attempt to steal al
empire.
We have too long been the private
property of the Southern Pacific, abso-
lutely controlled and dominated by it's
corrupt agents. An opportunity now
presents itself to throw off the CALLING
yoke of self.imposed serfdom, to blot
out the S.. P. brand and take our stand
alongside of California as an indepen.
dent commonwealth entitled to receive
the respect of our sister States.
Are you going to be one Of the thou
sands who will on September 9th enroll
yourself on the side of decency and
civic righteousness?
Sincerely yours,
GEORGE SPRINGMEYER.

SEVERELY BURNED BY POWDER
William Holder and John Hea]v
Meet With Painful Accident
Working in a Shaft

Supt. o. Q. Oofer of the Diamond
Peal Gold and Copper Company, whose
mines are situated in Davis CANYON.
near A. Q. Dibble's ranch, about s6
miles north of Eureka, arrived here
early Friday morning, accompanied by
Fred B. Crofut, who drove the rio.
bringing with him John Healy and
William Holder, two miners in the
employ of the company, who were in
Jured by the explosion of a quantity of
powder in one of the mines in which
they were working Thursday afternoon.
Shortly after their arrival here the
injured men were taken to the home of
Mr.. Holder and DR.. w. F. Burnett sum.
moned, who dressed their wounds.
1t appears the two men were working
at the bottom of a shaft, and after they
had drilled a hole, Healy came on top
to get some powder to lower to his
partner. The kind of powder they
were using is called Trojan, and is said
to be as fine al -four.
The powder was put into a paper bag,
and before starting to lower it Mr. Healy
did not discover that there was a hole
in the bottom of the sack. As it was
being lowered the fine powder began
pouring down on to the lighted candles
at the bottom Of the shaft. causing an
explosion, resulting in badly burning
Mr.. Holders face, arms and hands, and
also scorching his whiskers and eye
brows. Mr.. Healy's hands were also
burned, one Of them severely, and his
eyebrows singed.
At present the injured men are rest
ing as easy as the nature of their
wounds will permit, and the physician
states that although the injuries are
painful, no serious results are an~ticipat-
ed, but says it will be two or three
weeks before they will have sufficiently
recovered to resume their work.

Between Oddie and Massey, there is no
comparison in popularity. Oddie is very
strong wherever he is known. His home
paper, the Tonopah Bonanza, a Republi-
can organ, says of him:
"T. L. Oddie is one of the best loved
men in the State of Nevada, for his man.
liness of character, honesty and integ.
rity, he has won hundreds of friends. AS

maries or at the general election.
"Senator Oidie and Jim Butler are
responsible for the wages that the
miners in this section are receiving
to-day He has always stood up for
tho miners and by doing SO has earned
the undying gratitude of the under.
ground workers. Now that he has
definitely announced his candidacy,
every miner in the State, irrespective
Of politics, a be depended on to work
for his election.
"Among the business men Mr.. Oddie
is equally rs strong and will have
hackers galore throughout the CAM
paign. There will be hardly any need

mirers will see to it in the different
camps and cities that his interests are

Nevada Secures Reduced Railroad Rates

Nevada Secures Reduced Railroad Rates
The Nevada Railroad Commission
has received information from the
Transcontinental Freight Bureau Of
Chicago. stating that the Bureau has
been ordered by the Trans-C Continental
lines to prepare a new tariff naming
the rates as outlined by the Interstate
Commerce Commission in its decision
granting Nevada lower rates. This, 1t
is said, means that the Southern Pacific
intends to grant the new rates without
a struggle. The Nevada Commission Is
now preparing to force a reduction on
Interstate Commodity rates.

BUCKHORN Correspondence
Development Work Continues in

J 10 the visitor, Buckhorn town re-
sembles a New England village in
sobriety and decorum, in fact, too much
so. Up on the hill, however, Buckhorn
is another thing. 1t is pushing, active
and developing, and can boast of a
mineralized area that is already of gi.
gantic proportions.
The camp has resolved itself, thus
far, into a Wingfeld venture, and this

for which nature intended him. He is
a builder and a developer, and he is
spending his energy for Nevada. Every
thing which he attempts, he seems to
accomplish through himself, his means
and his able assistants. One of the lat.
ter, Siebert, is a leader among mining
engineers and managers. This is not
campaign talk. Neither one is a candi.

q summary of the work done at Buck.
horn may be proper. For about one
year development has been going on at
the Buckhorn mines. During that time
from so to 100 men have been steadily
employed. This has been a blessing to
Eureka County, which has been
sorely stricken by flood, fires and
failures. No ore has been shipped ex-
cept for experimental purposes. To-day
there are So men at work, two hoists are
running, and $500 feet of underground
workings are opened up, and, it is said.
commercial ore valued at $4,000, 900 is
blocked out and ready for treatment. 1t
is not q strain on the imagination to
look forward to a large treatment plant,
and then to picture a prosperous future
for Buckhorn, and, incidentally, better
times for Eureka County.
The observations OF your c%orrespon-
dent were not confined to mining alone.
Every new community of new blood is
an object worth regarding in political
times, and must be of interest to your
readers.
There are 100 voters registered, and
this number will be increased before

che voters on National affairs are even
ly divided. # is in State and County
affairs, however, that there seems to be
an unique condition. Buckhorn voters
feel that the primary law has complete
ly severed local, State ana National
politics. and that they can now vote for
men and not platforms.

Logic for YOUNG Women.

Many girls and young married women
often are disappointed at the candid criti-
cisms passed by their male belongings
about their clothes. You never seem to

Something always seems wrong about

reason for her complaint IN many ways.
but the real secret Of pleasing the aver
age man is to avoid the usual extremes
In dress-the outrageously f1aring hats
and the unavailable skirts. says the Mon
treal Star.
Women ought to have set or rules
about the personal note in their gowns.
They should study the colors that become
them, as ii is from the whole that the re-
suit. pleasing or otherwise. is taken.
Mans highest praise is usually She
was awfully well turned out which
means that the object of their admiration
has refrained from the ultra eccentricities
of fashion and was smart from the top
of her well coiffured head to her trim
footgear, and also that her gloves were
neat and stylish.

Aid to the Invalid.

Quiet and GOODNESS are objects to be
striven for in the room of a person who
Is Ill. BY quiet Is meant not only
controlling such sounds as might be
noticed by a strong person. but pre-
venting those which under ordinary
conditions would not be noticed at all
A mistake made by inexperienced
nurses Is to whisper In an invalid's
room. Nothing could be more irritat-
ing to one who Is nervously i'll. for the
sibilant sound of whispers Is heard per-
fectly, but not that which Is being said
and this may arouse suspicion and dis
trust that will affect the patient un-
favorably. Anything which must be
spoken OF In the room should be told
In a low undertone. and IL 1t Is some
nurse must wait until she can get the
other person into another room.
Any garments which rustic should be
baniehed: even q regulation linen uni
form will be Irritating II 1t is starched
SO as to crackle. Squeaky boots or
slippers are impossible: many nurses
wear list or rubber soled shoes. and
their example should be followed by
amateurs.

this direction. II the room Is so situ-
ated as to have windows on two sides
sheets wrung out In, cold water and
hung over the open window will make
the temperature several degrees lower.
When there Is not air enough to cause
a draught an electric fan should be
had. Those now made are practically
noiseless. and when attached make a
wonderful difference In an invalid S
comfort.
In excessive heat of summer IL a
great dishpan with a large cake of ice
is brought in and the fan turned on

None Of the methods for artificial COOL
ness should be INDUCED in. however,
without first obtaining q physician
approval. for the invalid might take
cold.
Frequent sponging with alcohol and
water Is most refreshing to a fever
patient, and when the body Is thus
bathed II must be covered at the same
time. or cold will be caught. table,
spoonful Of grain alcohol to quart of
water Is a good proportion, and even a
strong person will find this an excellent
bath on a hot day. Alcohol diluted in
this fashion Is more cooling than when
