Less Hudson
WithdraWS

The Appeal announces with iull
authority that Less l.. Hudson de-
clines to enter the race for Unated
States Senator in the primaries
which take place September 9th.
The reason for his refusal to enter
the lists was that such fight might
result in factional differences in the
Democratic Party which would be
ieh in November.
The pressure brought to bear on
MIR. Hudson arose from the splend-
id reputation he made as Presiden'
tial slector on the Democratic ticket
at the last election and the record he
made as campaigner and vote get
ter for the party by reason OF his
persuasive eloquence on the stump.
MI Hudson is thoroughbred
and announces that he will stump the
State at his own expense Tor the
Democratic nominee. whoever h@
may be. and being acquainted with
MIR. Hudson on the rostrum The Ap-
peal predicts that he will be smok-
ing battery Of artillery in full play
and always on the firing lire IN the

Decrease in
Our Population

Nevaia's population as demonstra-
ted by the recent census is away be
low what it was generally supposed
to be and demonstrates the futility,
OF trying 10 estimate the population
in state where mining camps shift
in night and where about the only
dependable conditions have, to do
with stoc kand agricultural sections.
While no figures are obtainable at
this time on the states population.
the general estimate of 100000 souls
is away above what it really is. and
it would not be surprising to this
paper if the number fell below IS.
900 persons. ~s.
There has been period, doubtless
during the last decade when the 100
600 mafk was about reached, but with
the abandonment OF wild dcatting and
mining camp booming thousands
left the state to pursue legitimate vo
cations elsewhere. In the meantime
Reno's divorce population is no in
considerable proportion OF that city's
population.
1t is generally prophesised now
that the 1910 census figures will
show an increase of around Is to 20
per cent increase over the figures OF
ten years ago. The greatest number
nf DaoDle lived within Nevada about
three years ago. since which time
the mining population has decreased
greatly. Although IT, farming sec
tions of the state have increased in
the interim, the increase will not
commence to cover the loss OF the

is more appreciated than their pres

Justice Talbot asked that he be al

most peculiar that has ever come

Rural Comedy Given Warm Welcome at Dreamland
 Last Evening

"Uncle Josh Perkins" and his com pany played to a very good house at Dreamland last night. It was likewite very appreciative house. Dave Ken nedy made very good "Uncle Josh, '' and he was abE supported by the members of the company.
 The sketch contains more of story than is usually the case with rural comedies and is full of thrilling and amusing events in which Uncle Josh is always implicated. Of course, love en- ters into it in full share also and at the end everybody is happily married
 The girl whom Uncle Josh rescues from poverty and danger proves to be his long lost daughter, and little Rags her companion and serving maid, remains in the same capacity at the Perkins home where she afterwards becomes the bride of Hiram, the hired man.
 The last act closes with an old time quadrille, while the band plays loud and fast.

MAY DROP MIAMI IN FORMATION OF
 LEAGUE
New Camp Unable to Organ ize Team in Time to
 Open Season

Unless Miami can succeed in organ izing a baseball team within the next week, what was originally planned tC be a four-team league in this district will be condensed into a three-team league, made up of Globe, Copper Hill and Stafford.
 Although Manager G. w. Shute of the local team has been endeavOring fOI several weeks to induce Miami to take some definite action with regard to forming team, he has as yet, he says to secure anything more than a state, ment that a team would probably be formed The players of Globe, Stafford and Copper Hill are anxious to perfect the organization of the new league at once, in order that a schedule of games may be arranged and the season open ed as soon as possible, and unless the Miami players act at once, the other teams will be forced to form league without their assistance.
 Manager Sihute received letter from Stafford yesterday, asking that game be scheduled with Copper Hill for sun day, March 27. It is probable that this game will be arranged for and the first game of the season played on this date.
 The Globe boys are practicing stead fly to put the local team in good shape for the opening of the season. They are showing up in good shape and are eager for the arrival of the regular season, in order that they may test their skill on the diamond against the other teams of this district.
 1t is expected that the managers of the various teams will get together within the next few days and arrange schedule of games for the season.
