Jackson, Miss, May 14.-The banks
of Mississippi have more money than
they have carried for several years,
according to President Oscar Newton
of the Jackson bank of this city. who
has just returned from the annual
convention of the Mississippi Bankers
Association, which was in session
there Monday, Tuesday and Wednes-
day of this week.
1.-The banks of the state have not

HON. KEY P|TTMAN

The announcement of Hon. Key
Pittman, as a democratic candidate
for United States senator appears
elsewhere. AS we published Mr..
Pittman's announcement of his
candidacy last week, we do not
deem it necessary to dwell upon his
fitness for that high office. In
that, he sets forth his firm adher-
ence to democratic principles and
told the people frankly his stand
on the great questions now before
the American people for their
solution.
Mr.. Pittman is one of the lead
ing attorneys in Southern Nevada.
He is a bon aide resident of the
state and konws the wants of its
people He is opposed TO all the
principles upon which Cannonism.
Aldrichism and Nixonism are
founded. He believes the govern.
rnent should be administered in the
interest of all the people instead
of a favored few.
The Independent requests the
democracy of Elko county to give
Mr.. Pittman's candidacy for the
United States senate the calm and
thorough consideration it deserves.
He is worthy of that consideration
and should he be successful at the
primary election in September he
should have the united support of
his party at the November election.

FOR DISTRICT JUDGE

We sre pleased to be able to in
form our readers that the retire
ment of Judge Brown does not find
the Democrats without a candidate
for the judgeship, nor make it
possible for the successful candi-
date at the Republican primary to
fall into the Office without opposition
at the general election. While the
Office Of judge should be regarded
as nonpolitical, and we would never
be sorry to see one who has made a
good record in. that office retained
in IL by a unanimous vote, it is
we'll when new men, whose fitness
for the place is largely a matter Of
conjecture, are aspirants for it, that
the people shall have a real OPP
portunity to make some choice.
The Independent takes pleasure in
presenting here the name of one
worthy of that choice.

THE RUBY VALLEY MAIL

The change in the arrival : and
departure of the Ruby valley mail
from Halleck has aroused consider
able criticism and been the cause
of some Incorporate talk.
In order to get the straight of
the matter we have interviewed
Postmaster Doughty and learned
the following:
The change in the schedule has
been advertised since October 22,
1909. and if the people of Ruby
valley want it changed back to the
former schedule, all they have to
do is to have the postmasters along
the route and the contractor sign
a petition to that effect, giving
their reasons for the change, and
send it to the Second Assistant
Postmaster General. The schedule
on the Shelton route was changed
and the people along that route
sent such a letter to the Second
ASSISTANT Postmaster General and
the mail is now running on the old
schedule. In fact, the change was
made before the new contract went
into effect.
That the present mail schedule
from Halleck works a hardship
on the people of Ruby valley goes
without saying. If they are dis
satitied with it, Mr.. Doughty points
out an easy way for them to have
the old schedule restored. We
commend it to their consideration.

This does not mean that the real or

TOUCHED JUDGES HEART

In 1869 a young man named
Thomas Ryan was convicted Of
burglary in Lander county and
sentenced to three years in states
prison, and by escaping from
prison twice and once from the
Ormsby county Jail, increased his
term by &c years. On a certain
Fourth of July, the late Hon. Thos.
P. Hawley, then a member of the
supreme court of the State of
Nevada, and candidate for re-elec-
ton, was the chosen orator of the
day at Virginia City. Nevada, and
in clarifying the American flag and
the liberties it represents, among
other beautiful metaphors said in

Mr.. Ryan got hold of this feeling
of the jugde and wrote him about
as follows: Dear Judge:-I an

the people of Elko county as a
good lawyer and an honorable, up
right man. He has passed the
most Of his life in this state. In
1896, he graduated from the Uni
versity of Nevada in the Liberal
Arts course. He afterwards
taught school in this county for
three years During this time, he
studied law and June /, 1901, was
admitted to the bar. He shortly
after came to Elko and began the
practice of his profession.
In 1904, he was elected district
attorney Of this county and served
one term. His record in that
office was without a stain. He pro-
secuted offenders fearlessly, but
prosecuted no one. His whole
course during his residence he has
been that of a thorough gentleman
and an honorable member of his
chosen profession.
Otto T. Williams has the con-
fidence and respect of all who know
him, both as a man and as an
attorney. He has no entangling
alliances with factions OF cliques
and is sure to receive the support
of a large element of his party at

While the writer belongs to the
opposite political praty, he has no

it them that, if he is sue

will make a lively race for the
