Official Paper of Lincoln County
SWEENEY A CANDIDATE.

Judge James G. Sweeney of the SUI
preme court of Neveada has announc-
ed his candidacy for the democratic
nomination for the United States SEN
atorship and he declares that he is
in the fight to finish.
Judge Sweeney, however, does not
have the support of the Dickerson
machine which thought it had a Dan
lei when 1t advanced the name of
Hon. Charles B. Henderson for the
position. Henderson could not see
his senatorial star shining brightly
and declined to enter into any coali-
ton with the Dickerson crowd. Now
Sweeney has come in and being in
harmony with Bartlett, Newlands and
the more conservative element OF
the democratic party, hopes to win
favor at the September primaries.

sYPHus SHOULD RESIGN.

The Clark County Review quotes
Hon. Levi Syphus as having declared
that he will not resign the position
Of state senator. Levi insists that he
Is still resident of this county;
that his home is at Panaca and there
fore proposes to stay on the job not
withstanding that q very large por-
ton of his Lincoln county constitu-
ency believes to the contrary and that
he does not and never has, since his
election, been watchful of the inter-
ests and welfare of the county which
he poses to represent.
We do not believe that Mr.. Syphus
can honestly claim Panaca as his
abode. He owns no property there or
anywhere else in Lincoln county; he
pays no taxes to this county as far
as we know; but on the contrary, Is
= property owner In Clark county
and has kept his trunk somewhere
down around st. Thomas or Overton,
where his energy has been displayed
toward the development Of the Muddy
valley region. That Is where he
makes his headquarters and that Is
whefe he transacts his business.
Hence we cannot see how he can con.
sistently look the people Of Lincoln
county in the eye and say i am one
Of you"
As q legislator, Mr.. Syphus has done
nothing to advance the interests OF
Lincoln county. When matters have
come into controversy affecting the
welfare Of Lincoln and Clark counties
his sympathies and acts have invar-
iably been with the latter. Under
these conditions, the Record takes the
view that Mr.. Syphus ought to step
aside 30 that the taxpayers OF Lin
coin county can elect q man as his
successor who will give them prop
or representation In the next legis
lature. Mr.. Syphus is Q man of abil
fty, successful business man, but az
4 senator-as far as Lincoln county
is conference.-the il failure. In fair
ness to the people of this county he
ought to retire to Clark county to
ask for political favor.
OF course, Hon. Levi vou would
leave the way open for the election
OF q republican senator In this
county.

tested war which resulted in the loss
Of political independence by the peo-
pie OF two states. the contestants are

local self-government. In nothing is
the greatness of the English people
and the sagacity Of their political
leadership shown more strikingly
than In their wise treatment of the

striking has been the far sighted
ness of the Boer leaders. We are

EARTH ONLY SEVENTY
MILLION YEARS OLD
United States Biologists
Give That as Highest
Estimate.
SMITHSONIAN ENDORSES
Computations on Planet
Age by Scientists Have
Differed Widely.
SMITHSONIAN ENDORSES

NEW YORK, Sept. 13.-Geologists
and physicists have differed for many
years in their estimates OF the geologi-
cal age of the earth. AS rule geolo-
gists have placed their estimates at
300 million years. while the physicists
deduced, principally from thermody-
manic conditions, the comparatively
short age Of 20 million or 80 million
years. Prof. Frank WIgglesworth
Clarke and George F. Becker of the
United States Geological Survey, are
the latest scientists to estimate the
age of the earth. They say its age is
not more than 20 million nor below
So million years"
This estimate has received official
sanction through its publication by the
Smithsonian Institution. Professor
Clarke presents his deductions from
q chemical standpoint and reviews
parts Of the world. His thesis on the
subject is entitled "A Preliminary
Study of Chemical Denudation." Mr..
Becker writes on the subject more
from the philosophers point of view
and the title of his paper is AZ ne Age
Of the Earth
Each Has His Own Idea.
The reason why scientific men rare
ly have agreed as to the time our
planet has been in existence is be-
cause each man has drawn his de-
auctions from facts obtained by re-
tsearch work IN his own particular
scientific branch of knowledge.
The more recent men have given
their opinion of the age of the earth
as follows: Lord Kelvin, in 1862, 20
million to 400 million years with a
probable SO million years; Clarence
King and Carl Barus, in 1898, "a mil
lion years: Lord Kelvin, in 1897, re-
vised his figures from 20 million to
40 million years; De Lapperant, in
1890, g. million to 90 million years;
Charles D. Walcotr secretary of the
Smithsonian Institution, in 1893, maxi
mum age, 20 million years; ]. Jolly, in
1899, age of the ocean, so million to
80 million years; W. ]. Sollas, in 1909,
age OF the ocean, so million to $50
million years.
| a Chemical STUDY
Some time ago Strut deduced from
the proportion of helium found in thor
ium ores, lower limit of 24O million
years for the age of the earth. The
same physicist has recently attempted
to determine by direct experiment the
rate at which helium is generated in
thorianite and pitchblende. He found
that the quantity of helium produced
by four hundred grams of thorianite
in seven weeks was certainly less than
2x16x2 cubic centimeters. From this
| it follows that one gram of thorianite
generates less than 3.7x10x6 icubic
centimeters of helium year. Hence
at least 240 million years must be al
lowed for the accumulation of the nine
cubic centimeters of helium which are
actually found in each gram of freshly
mined thorianite And this would
leave the question of the earth's age
as much of mystery as ever.

HIGH SCHOOL BOYS
AS FOOD INSPECTORS
DIR. W. Cutler Plans to In
terest Pupils in Better
Sanitation.
WILL TOUR THE STATE
DR.. Lucky, Veterinarian, Be.
lieves Young Persons Are
Easiest to Educate.

High school boys N many towns in
Missouri are to have trial as pure
food inspectors, according to the plans
of DR.. w. P. Cutler, state dairy and
foor commissioner. They will be com
missioned as deputy inspectors anC
will be allowed to investigate the san
itary conditions of grocery stores
meat markets. diaries and slaughter
houses IN their home towns.
The plan is made to insure the higi
school students interest in a series OF
educational lectures which DR.. Cutler
and D. F. Luckey, state veterinarian
re planning to give in the high schools
OF the state on pure food and tuber
culosis. DR.. Luckey will carry with
him specimens from tubercular cattle
and diagrams and charts showing the
causes. effects and cures of tubercu
loSis.
They have been planning the cam
paign several weeks, but the scheme
for interesting the high school Toys
in sanitary foods has just been de
cided upon. DIR. Cutler will write tc
the principals of the high schools
which they expect to visit and ask
them to select three or four bright
boys to do the inspecting Of the town
He will inclose copy OF the pure
food laws and the score cards OF
which the regular inspectors grade al
establishment. He says he will for
mally deputize the boys and then sene
them out to work.
When the idea first occurred II
them the two state officers though
they would plan a route over the state
the school superintendent in man!
cities, however, have learned of the
proposed trip and have written II
them asking that they visit thel
schools. The doctors have now de
cided to visit nrst those towns which
have sent invitations, because theI
believe they are more certain OF al
interest being taken in their worl
there. If the invitations continue II
come to the office here at the rate
they have been coming. they will visi
only those towns which send invita-
tons.
The men expect this campaign tt
have an exceptionally good effect DR.
Luckey believes more good can be &C
complished by talking to high schoo
students than to any other class Of
people.
Il have almost quit trying to edu
cate grown persons on the tubercu
losis question: said Dr. Luckey to
day. "They are willing to listen to
advice all right, but listen is about
all they are willing to do. They US
ually have formed opinions and it is
hard proposition to change these
opinions-no matter how far wrong
they may be. With high school stu
dents it is different. They are just
as willing listeners, and what is said
to them on such a subject as tuber.
