HOW EGGERS FELL
into POLITICS

Jacob Eggers, the efficient in
eumbent of the Office of State Con-
troller, literally fell into politics.
His fall came close to carrying
him to that far country from which
noae return, but twenty-five
months on crutches was the only
inconvenience he suffered from
fall of 300 feet down the shaft of
mine in Elko county.
While shaft boss at one of the
mines at Tuscarora, he was going
down in the cage with Sam Stark,
his partner, and when at the 200
foot level, the engineer lost control
and the cage dropped, sheer to the
bottom OF the shaft, which was sos
feet deep. Stark was killed and
Eggers had both ankles broken
and suffered other injuries. He
had followed the mines in Nevada
for fifteen years, but this narrow
escape turned his mind to other
lines of employment. In the fall
of 1890, he was elected assessor of
Elko county, position he held for
sixteen years. Four years ago he
was elected to the Office of State
Controller, a position in which he
has made record for efficiency
and attention to duty.
Mr.. Eggers was born in Ger
many in 1854 but was brought to
America when very young. He
was raised on farm in Illinois,
and had the usual struggle for an
education, common to boys on the
frontier at that time. He came to
Nevada when a young man and
cast his first vote at Battle Noun
tain in 1875. He was married in
Elko in 1897.

Sardis Summerfield, the well

audience at Valhalla hall in be-
half of the Republican party and

support of the railroad rate bill.
Mr.. Simmons discussed this rate
question from busiess mans
standpoint, and showed by facts
that Nevada will save over one
million dollars annually by Sena-

tor Nixon's attitude. Mr.. Sim
mons remarks were non-partisian
but appealed to the thinkers 10
seriously consider the facts that
prove Senator Nixon ito be tree
blue to Nevada.
Mr.. Summerfeld showed up the
extravaganza of the present state
government and his words went
straight to the right spot. At the
mention of the names OF Roberts,
Oddie, and Springmeyer the crowd
cheered loudly.

FOR MAN
WHO Tolls
THAT'S SENATOR ODDEE
His Record Shows That He Has
Always Been the Eriend
of Labor.

Many linen throughoutlthe state
are familiar with tho interests
that 7. L Oddie, the Republican
candidate for Governor, has al
ways shown for the man who is
compelled tn toll for a living. A
striking example is that of Senator
shorty Kendall, now a Senator
from Nye county. Kendall and
his partner, Mcmahon, had lease
on the Mizpah; they struck shoot
OF ore and took out about $4,000
apiece. A dispute arose as to the
ownership of this ore, the company
claiming it under a technicality.
Oddie knew that these men were
right as he and Jim Butler had
made an agreement with them
and when the company refused to
allow them to receive the money
from the Smelters, Oddie instantly
espoused their cause and sent word
to the officers of the company that
he would resign as their manager
and take the case himself for
Kendall and Mcmahon and fight
it to a finish. The company real
izud that Oddie, as usual, was
standing for square deal' and
rather than lose him as manager,
because they knew he was serving
everyone's interest to the best OF
his ability, they backed down and
told him to pay over the money.
In th connect o it might be
we'll to add that OddIe did in the
early days Of Tonopah what has
never been done before in any
mining camp on earth. He used
all his own money and borrowed
all he could and it amounted to
several good sized fortunes and
loaned it to the leasers in order
that they might increase their out
put. He did not make one cen. by
doing this and did not intend TO
at the time; he did it for the pur-
pose of helping the men who need
ed help in the camp; they were all
poor men when they came here
and so was he.
He saw chance for Nevada to
be rejuvenated by men who would
make money through their own
efforts and his help, and as re-
suit, Tonopah is recognized as one
of the most substantial mining
camps in the country today.

SKETCH OF
W. EASTON
AN ENERGETIC CITIZEN
His Legislative Experience Makes
Him Perfectly Fitted for
High Office.

William Easton Republican
candidate for Lieutenant Govern
or. was born in the Province of
Quebec in 1854, of Scotch parent
age. He spent his early life in the
Province of Ontario working on a
farm. At the age of fourteen, he
left home and from that time on
made his own way through life.
He had learned the blacksmith
trade at the age of II, and can
shoe horse or set a wagon tire
now.
He came t) Austin, Nevada in
1875 and worked at his trade in
summer and chopped cord wood IN
the winter. In 1877, he went to
work in the mines, following this
, occupation until the people OF
Lander county elected him to the
office of Sheriff and Assessor. He
held this fire continuously for 4
years and after the two offices were
made separate, WAS assessor for
f ur years During the past four
years, he has served his county as
State Senator.
As Assessor, Mr.. Easton was the
fret official to raise the assessment
of the Southern Pacific to $4,000
per mile. This was in the year
1891, when tie 29.15 miles of main
line track of the company in
Lander County was assessed at
$40, 900 mile and the side track
at $4,000 a mile. The Board of
Equalization, rather than risk
lawsuit nullified the assessors
work by reducing the assessment
to $4,000 mile.
In the Senate, Mr.. Easton was
chairman of the committee which
reported favorably on the bill
creating the present Nevada Rail
road Commission. He also stood
for the anti-gambling bill and all
legislation calculated to improve
the conditions of labor.
When the railroad rate law was
pending in congress last winter,
Mr.. Easton circulated a petition in
support of the enactment OF the
long and short haul amendment
and wired the same at his own ex-
pense to Nevada's representatives
In both the Senate and the House.
In 1899 he purchased the Inter-
national Hotel in Austin, and has
also been engaged in the hardware
and farm machinery business for
Il number of years. In 1888 he
married Mrs. Lucy Stowe and has
i family of three children, a
daughter and two sons.
He is the only candidate on
either of the state tickets from that
section of the state, comprising the
counties of Churchill, Lander,
Eureka, Humboldt and Elko.
For seven years he worked in the
Manhattan Silver Mining Com
pany. He was president of the
Austin Miners Union when it had
500 members, and was its treasur-
er, when it had one of the largest
funds in the state. In the opera
ton of numerous mining properties
he has always paid miners the top
scale.

How to Cure Eczema, PIN
piles and Dandruff.

We desire to say that when we took
the agency for ZEMO, we were con-
WINGED that il was a valuable remedy for
Eczema, pimples and dandruff Yet, we
must frankly admit that ZemO has far
exceeded our expectations as a treat
ment for skin diseases. We are pleased
10 state that we shall continue the
agency as ZEMO has given splendid re-
suits wherever recommended. Our Gus
toners like Zemo too. because it is a
clean vegetable liquid for external use.
ZEMO effects its cures by drawing to
the surface of the skin and destroying
the germ life that causes the disease
leaving the skin clear and healthy 1t
does not soil the clothing or linen and
can be used freely on infants

THE EVER RISING COST OF
LIVING.

The Worlds Work for, January gives
facts and figures on the cost of living
that puts Shreveport at the head of the
list of high price of beef by retail. I'm
fifty cities" Quoting from the article)
the retail price bears the following re
lation to the wholesale price Percent
age of retail price above wholesale
price: North Atlantic States 3I4; South
Atlantic States 3S; North Central States
3d. South Central States 81; Western
States 80. In Shreveport, La, for ex-
ample, the retail price is 68 per cent
higher than the wholesale price; in Bos-
ton it is 60 per cent; in Wichita, KaS.,
40 per cent, and So per cent in Spokane,
Wash. On the other hand the retail
price is only 20 per cent above the
wholesale, and in Baltimore only y per
cent. Secretary Wilson's report explains
that these high charges are caused by
the multiplicity of small shops. When
there are many small shops doing the
business that one large one could do
more efficiently there are many more
horses, wagons, boys and clerks than
there ought to be. They al lcoSt money
to maintain and the consumer paws the
cost
