1t has been stated by some that
he was sentenced under the wrong
charge and we have been asked by
the officers to quote the following
from the Statutes of Nevada:
"Every person who shall felon-
iously steal, take, and carry, away,
the personal goods or property Of
another, under the value OF 500,
shall be deemed guilty of petit
larceny, and upon conviction
thereof, shall be punished by inn

REPUBLICANS HOLD
ENTHUSIASTIC MEETING
Geo. Springmeyer Gets Mighty Ovation
In Home County---Oddie, Nixon
and Roberts Winners.

The opening gun of the present
campaign was fred in Gardner
vile last Saturday night at which
time the candidates on the Re
publican state ticket addressed one
OF the largest crowds that have
ever gathered at Valhalla hall to
listen to a political speaking.
Amid a spectacular display of fire
works ami lively music by a brass
band the crowd was entertained
on the street before the speakers
took their places on the platform.
Senator Mack as chairman of
the meeting introduced the first
speaker of the evening, George
Spring eyer, as the "unspiktd d
rail ll the path of railroad domi-
nation" Douglas county's son
received mighty ovation as lie

earnest attention and appealed
to the voters of both parties for
their support.
w. w. Booth, candidate for
Stat printer, after paying tribute
to his opponent, stated fin a few
words his own qualifications for
the office and wound up by saying
that the voters OF Douglas county
should do the same by Spring
meyer as Nye county did by Cd
die; give him a unanimous vote.
He was heartily cheered.
Senator 0ddie, candidate for
governor, was then introduced and
cheer after cheer that was given
him was ample proof OF the wide
esteem in which the voters hold
him. Among other things Mr..
0dde said, "Should | be elected
Governor of Nevada, | promise
you a businefs administration.
Every bit of energy at my COM
mand will be put into the execn-
ton of the duties of that high
Office" He told OF his work in
southern Nevada, how he had al
ways fought for the rights of the
man who tolls. When he finish, d
be received a rousing ovation.
e. L. Roberts sievotcd much of
his time TO the eulogy of Senator
Nixon, almost forgetting his own
candidacy. To illustrate Nixon's
10 atty AMI the interests he has
in our success, he spoke of the
panic OF three years ago when
banls all over the state went
under. Senator Nixon rushed 10
tn r.scu f five banks in which
he was interested, with his private
fortune of 100000 to prevent
the ruin of friends by calling in
loans. Mr.. Roberts proved him
self to be an able orator and a
brilliant man, fully capable of
filling the Office of Congressman
With honor 10 his state.
Senator Nixon followed with a
statement of facts regarding his
record in the United States senate.
The tariff question was most ably
handled as we'll as the back haul
rate case when he voted against Il
railroad. He talked on farming
with much understanding and Is
deeply interested in reclamation of
our arid land. He was interesting
and logical 10 the extreme and was
interrupted by applause many time

short talk that was non- political.
He told how he and his opponent
had been class mates at Stamford,
of the strong bonds of friendship
that existed between them. Mr..
Baker was loudly cheered for his
splendid fairness and clean cut
remarks.
Charles s. Sprague, editor of the
Goldfield News, and candidate for
Congressman, made the most
telling speech of the evening. He
handled his subjects intelligently,
and unlike Pittman, made no at
tempt to pull the wool over the
eyes of his hearers. He is not
radical but to the contrary, is a
man who does not believe that the
good of all political parties Is done
up in little ball OF Democracy.
He received splendid ovation.
Sam P. Davis, who is out for
State Controller, amused the good
natured audience with some stories
and it would be hard to tell just
where Sans story telling left off.
He did not say one single word a
bout the Publicity Commission or
the discovery he recently made
whereby sagebrush could be trans
formed into gold via the potash
route.
Mr.. Deadly was the last speaker.
He made hit when he declared
that Douglas county got bam-
boozeled out of a big slice of terri
tory in the boundary line case be-
tween this and Lyon county.
1t is safe to say that Mr.. Deadly
will eliminate this part of his
speech when in Lyon county.
However, Mr.. Deadly was quite
interesting and his remarks were
we'll taken.
At the chairman's proposal,
three cheers were given for the
Democratic state ticket and the
meeting closed.

Monday night the Democratic
party held their rally in Gard
nerville and it was one of the best
attended meetings ever held here
by that party. A great many Re-
publicans were in the audience to
listen to the claims of their Demo-
cratic friends. Before the speak
ing started the band livened things
up a bit and it was few minutes
after eight when the speakers took
their places upon the platform.
Louis Stodieck acted as chairman
and first introduced Acting Cover
nor Diickerson. His Accidental
ship received a hearty greeting
at his introduction and graciously
acknowledged the same. He did
not repeat his Carson speech but
kept closer to matters concerning
the Office to which he aspires
He denied that his administration
han been an extravag one but
declared that the expense had been
kept down 70 the minimum. He
talked II. some length about rail-
road control in politics and ad-
mltted that in the past the South
ern Pacific did have a grasp on
Nevada Democracy. He declared
that the people did know what he
would do but did not know what
his opponent would do.
Joe Farnsworth, aspirant for
State Printer, followed the Cover
nor. He said he has followed the
printing busines4 since kid.
He has worked on and off in the
state office for ii years and feels
capapable of experimenting the
state printing.
Key Pittman, candidate for
United State Senator, is an
able orator and Immediately
plunged deep into national issues.
His Republican opponent was ac-
cused of being responsible for the
high cost of living, along with all
of his party. He failed to tell,
however, who was responsible for
high prices received by the Ameri-
can farmer for his pro luce during
the past 10 years. How cunningly
he glided over this mountain of
Republican prosperity. He read
extracts from the Democratic
platform with great feeling and
much stress; from the Republican
platform with a voice of a parrot.
Key is very fine speaker and is
old in the game of politics.
David Ryan, George Brodigan
and others spoke of their candid
acy briefly.
