PATRIOTISM IN TIME OF PEACE

BY Earl Robinson, Whitewater
We generally think of patriotism in
connection with war, yet there is
Just as much opportunity for pa
triotism in time of peace as in war
Everyday patriotism is shown, or
should be, in every American home
The father should teach his children
70 respect the flag, and to love their
country. They should be taught the
meaning of the colors in the flag. and
what the stripes and the stars stand
for. The patriotic citizen~remembers
the national holidays and birthdays.

Bat Hogan, coming from behind
the bar, seized him by the arm.

You know me-, said the other.
- don't know ye,' shouted Hogan.
Why, sure We do. Shure We know
me- was the calm answer. I'm the
man that comes in here to light his
pipe every morning"

cidents Of yesterday, occurred early
yesterday morning on the Ahmeek
switch Of the Houghton County Trac-
ton company when one of the Mohawk
cars was damaged as a result of run
ming over some dynamite which had
been left on the rails. II Is thought
that the dynamite was placed on the
ralls merely as a prank, but il came
near resulting i'm severe injuries for
those involved. one of the front
wheels were blown off the car and the
bottom OF the car was badly wrecked.
No one was hurt, there being only the
motorman and conductor and two mas
sengers on the car and these escaped
without injury.
The dynamite had been placed on the
frog at the switch near New Allouez
location some time last night. and
Where the first car i'm the morning
would strike it. The frog and the
switch were badly damaged greatly de-
laying the traffic before repairs could
be made. The accident happened about
minutes after C O'Clock. There Is no
clue as to the petpetrdtor, but If found

ELKO COUNTY SLAMMED

Democracy is indeed hard
pressed when twill go to ST Oh
lengths as has been taken during
the last week. The democratic
spell binders have been travelling
through the eastern part of IL e
state and evidently finding that al
was not coming their way startt d
the campaign for bribery. Heads d
by the Journal, the democratic
press has stated that sos. 200 in
good hard coin has been sent 10
Elko county to buy the voters of
that section.
Now let US ask: Are the voters
of Elko coun ty of such a caliber
that they can be purchased by any
mans money!" The democratic
parity has intimated as much and
we know of no greater insult that
could be handed to any section or
to any class of people than to state
that the voters would cast their
votes for another mans money.
The people of Elko county afe as
true men as there are in any
county of the tate this slam that
has been taken at them by the de-
mocratir party shows that the
party fears their vote and is trying
in some way to coerce them into
supporting the "banner of the
mule. Carson News.
The News is correct in its esti-
mate of the people of this county.
No reputable person here has
heard of S65,000 or any other sum
being sent here to corrupt the
voters at the primary election.
The story started while j. F.
HALEY, the advance agent of
Governor Dickerson, was here and
is doubtless the product of his
brain, assisted by one or two of
Dickerson's supporters. The STORY
is libel on the democracy of Elko
county and Its authors, deserve the
condemnation Of every good citizen
Of the county.

TO THE PUBLIC

A report has reached me today
that in the event of my defeat at
the urinary election for the
nomination.. am seeking at the
hands of the R1rI blican parry, that
of District Judge. 1would be an
independent candidate far the
office of County Clerk. I wish to
tate that such report is absolutely
without foundation, false and mis-
leading, and could have been cir
culated for one purpose only,
namely, to divert votes from me to
one of my opponents. Unfortun-
ately the name of the author can
not be learned. I take this oppor-
tunity of stating that l am in the
fight for the Republican nomina-
tion for District Judge, and that
if nominated l will use my best
efforts to be elected. l appreciate
the loyalty of my party and my
friends, and ! am so conducting my
campaign as to endeavor to m crit
the continued confidence of both.
Under no circumstances will | be a
candidate for any other office than
that to VIII .ch now aspire.

This document was given. 10 the

hotel when he came to toxin. Mr..
Russell came up in the evening and
was handed the paper of which the

he gave it to the Writer. This
morning we looked up the Statutes
and find that Skaggs in signing the
agreement violated Section 1858 of
the Compiled Laws of Nevada and
laid himself liable to prosecution
for felony. Said lection reads
as follows: p.
