REPUBLICANS
SHOULD WIN
SOME REASONS WHY THE PARTY
SHOULD REMAIN IN CONTROL
OF THE HOUSE OF REPRE-
S~ENTATIVES.

There are leading eason why the
Republican party should retain con-
troll of the House of Representatives
and of the Federal government.
First, the legislative record of the
party-the full record of its half CEN
fury of existence, the record OF the
past seven congresses since 1t resum-
ed power on March 4, 1897, and the
record of the extra and first regular
session of the present Congress-all
this is conclusive proof of its wisdom,
its constructive ability, and its I'M
selfish devotion to the best interests
of the people and their government.
The second reason is because, in
response to a demand of the people,
the Republican party pledged a re-
vision of the tariff, and kept its
pledge, observing moi only the letter
but also the spirit of the declaration.
While we did not expressly promise
revision downward. yet it was so UNI
derstood by the people, and what
the people expected they gained in
full measure at the special session of
Congress called by President Taft.
The third reason is because the
people should indorse the admins
tration of President Taft by giving
him a substantial Republican major
ity in the mex House to work with
the Republican Senate in making
complete the fulfilment of Repub-
lican pledges, and in carrying out to
the full the recommendations of the
President.
There may be some congressman
who are reluctant to admit that all
this tremendous amount of good leg
islation was accomplished with the
active aid of the president. | am not
one of those. | give TO President
Taft the full credit for the part he
played. There is glory enough to be
divided in good measure between the
| Executive and Congress. Never be-
| fore in our history has there existed
such complete harmony between the
president and both houses of con-
gress as has been since the 4th OF
March, 1909. This. | say, is a strong
reason why the next house should be
Republican, in order that our splen-
did teamwork may not be interrupt
| ed, but may go on to the benefit of
the nation and the welfare of the
people.
With a Democratic house we
should have in the speakers chair
| Mr.. Champ Clark, who once an
nouneed on the floor or the house
that. If he could. he would tea down
the custom-house of every American
port. As chairman of the Ways and
Means committee We should have Mr..
Underwood of Alabama, who de-
/, elares himself unequiyocally for a
| revenue tariff. We should then have
a tariff bill sent 10 the senate, which,
though il would be buried there.
would nevertheless throw alarm into
every bank, every factory, every
farm and every counting-house. and
would ~paralyze every source of pro-
duction, transportation and con-
sumption in the country.-By James
A. Tawney in the Munsey.

NATIVE SON OF NEVADA
FOR ATTORNEY GENERAL
HAS HAD EXCEPTIONAL ADVAN-
TAGES AND WILL MAKE A
FEARLESS OFFICIAL WITH
DUE REGARD FOR EVERYBODY

George Springmeyer, candidate for
the Office of Attorney General, on the
Republican ticket is a native Ne
vadan. He was born on his fathers
ranch in Carson Valley and is a repre-
sentative of one of the best families
of the state. His father settled in the
Carson Valley In the sixties, and is
recognized particularly for his
virtues OF good citizenship.
George Springmeyer has had ex-
ceptional advantages and has made
the most of them. He was educated
at the University of Nevada, the
Stamford University and at Harvard.
He is a member of the bar in Ne
vada and in California and has been
admitted to the practice in all the
federal courts.
Four years ago he was the Republic
can nominee for the Office to which he
now aspires. At that time he made
a canvass of the state. but missed
election by SO4 votes. After the
campaign, he settled down to the
practice of law in Goldfield. Since
1907 he has been assistant attorney
of Esmeralda county, participating
In some of the most important civil
and criminal litigation ever tried in
the state. He made a reputation for
ability in handling difficult cases in
court, against clever and persistent
adversaries. in the well known bull
lion tax litigation. The outcome of
these trials, resulted in the payment
of over 100000 90 In taxes to Esmer-
aida county.
Mr.. Springmeyer is essentially a
fighter, and If the people of this state
want a militant. fearless attorney
general who, with due regard for the
rights Of every man, railroad or cor
poration, will vigorously enforce the
law, they a make nc mistake In the
election of him to the Office.

Republican voters of the state to the
Office he has held continuously ever
sinee-secretary of state. The first
time he ran for this Office he and the
late Orvis Ring were the only Re-
publieans that succeeded in getting
more votes than their Democratic ad-
versaries.
His administration of the Office has
been conspicuous for efficiency.
Among the things his friends point to
with especial pride is the state library
which has been built up through the
incessant enthusiasm of Secretary
Douglass. Ii is the finest law library
on the Pacific coast, containing many
volumes of foreign decisions hat
cannot be found In any other library
in the west. Thirty-fiye thousand
volumes have been catalogued under
the Dewey system. Besides the law
library. there is a collection of miseel-
laneous books of many thousand val
umes
Since Mr.. Douglass took office.
more than $350,000 have been col
lected in fees, all of which was turn
ed into the state treasury.
He is largely interested in Com
stock mines. He Is connected with
the Golden Curry, the Best & Belcher,
the Chollar and the Consolidated New
York. all Comstock producers. He is
also the largest stock holder In the
Comstock Mohawk, a property now in
operation.
His especial pride and his most
important venture in the line of
private business is an illustration of
what may be accomplished In this
state In the way of reclamation. He Is
bringing under cultivation a tract of
1900 acres of very rich lands. He
is raising hogs, cattle and horses and
has hundreds of acres of fine hay and
grain on ground that a few years ago
was a desert waste. He secures the
water for his purpose from the Was
hoe lake, pumping to a height of 60
feet from which elevation he is able
to water 600 acres. He is now putting
in an electric pumping plant of $50
horse power, which will enable him
to lift the water of Lake Washoe to a
height of 10 feet and reclaim his
entire tract of 2200 acres. Last year
he marketed $50 head of fat Poland
Chinas and is going in for hog raising
on n large scale.
His interest in ranching and his
knowledge in that line has made Mr.
Douglass one of the most valuable
members of the state prison board
This board as is known, has purehas.

RETARY OF STATE AMONG
THOSE WHOM DEMOCRATS

In touch with the plans and work so
far carried u and his reelection to
the Office of secretary of state for the

The main argument advanced by

also argued that the great ma
