Reno's Street Car System

Reno'S street car system took in
SJi,B9O last year "a total of l,O53. 500
nickels. This means an expenditure of
over 5000 a month and more than
1886 day. or over 5000 fares "A day
not bad for Il town the size of Reno.
The Reno street car lines, exclusive of
the lines 10 Sparks and Moana, now
stretch over six miles and will probably
reach ten miles by summer time. The
line which now runs 70 Burke's addi.
tlon will likely be swung around to
connect with the line running com
plctely around the city.

A Common Cold.

We claim that If catching cold
cold be avoided some of thr most
dangerous and fata! diseases would
never be heard of. A cold often
forms a culture bed for germs of
.infectious diseases. Consumption,
pneumonia, diphtheria and scar
let fever. four Of the most dani
gerous and and fatal diseases are
iof this class. The cultured bed
formed by the cold favors the de-
velopment of the germs of these
diseases, that would not otherwise
find Judgment. There is little
danger however. of anysof these
diseases being contracted when a
good expectorant cough medicine
like Chamberlains Cough Remedy
isSused. 1t cleans out the culture
bed that favor the development Of
the germs of these diseases. That
is why this remedy has proved so
universally successful in prevent
ing pneumonia. 1t not only cures
your cold quickly but minimlzes
the risk of contracting these dan
gerous diseases. For sale at c

of preparation, and that after all life
does not begin really until you have
your diploma. Important for the COM
ing days, of course, essentially import

real life is today, this day, or your
real tomorrow may never come. Your
life will be the richer for the striving
to get into today what you naturally
expect tomorrow. Why not be day
ahead If you can, never a day behind
in your plan? Enlarge your vision.
Make this day real day and your ho-

ON IMMoDEsrY

Editor Herald: II the critic wishes
to pick the world to pieces there are
bad works enough to create stench
thta would overcome a buzzard.
For instance, at the beaches we nnu
inmodest, absolutely immodest bath
ing suits worn by the men folk and
we find respectable young women ly-
ing beside men dressed in this almost
nude fashion. Modesty? Why, there
is no modesty at beach resorts!
If we wish to take the Bible as PROOF
we can prove that nearly every woIn-
an in the land has committed disrep-
table immodesty, and every man like
wise.
Respectable people perhaps have
sweethearts with whom they associ-
ate after dark, and God knows how
many passionate kisses and caresses
they exchange; perhaps they have
dozen sweethearts, and yet we talk OF
modesty and purity If we believe
Matthew 52, hath not every woman
committed a grievous sin? OF course
if we translate the verse "hgura-
tively' to crawl out of our iniquity,
well, then, it does not apply to re-
spectacle people, eh?
Under the present way of living ana
the sham cruel God presented to us by
all the churches, how can We expect
anything else? II. r.

HE PICKS JOHNSON

Editor Herald: I am Republican,
an old-time Republican, an Insurgent
Republican, and fully appreciate the
excellent work done by The Herald for
the cause of good government; but I
cannot see how 1t figures out victory
for Bell in November, excellent man
and good citizen though we all admit
him to be. Do you imagine that the
1O1 900 insurgents who voted for john
son, the many thousand insurgents
who voted for Stanton because he was
a Los Angeles man and believed by
them to be anti-machine, the tens of
thousands of straight Republicans who's
voted for curry and the others and
cannot be turned against the regular
nominee of the party by any dis
gruntled machine, do you believe that
these or any considerable number of
them can be influenced by vote against
their own candidate, regularly nomi-
mated, who stands for all that is good
in the Grand Old Party? California is
overwhelmingly Republican, and the
only way friend Bell can be elected Is
by Republican votes. The only Re-
publicans who will vote against john
son are those controlled by the ma
chine. NOW, for the nonce, Bell is the
machine candidate, not that they love
Bell or the principles he stands for,
but because they hate Johnson as the
devil hates holy water. With them 1t
is "anything to beat johnson"

through the day they can enjoy their
perhaps one pleasure and solace, they
would then do their shopping and CAD
ding about through the mems work
hours when they are toiling to get
them bread and clothing. BY so doing
they would be at home attending to
their neglected household duties ana

Los Angeles is rapidly becoming the
recognized educational center of the
west. The various public, private and
denominational educational institutions
which make their home here are with
each years marvellous growth of the
city Increasing in size, efficiency and
influence. This statement especially
applies to Occidental college, Whlch
at it's recent opening showed very
marked increase in its attendance over
former years. It's students now come
from eight states. They represent
twenty-nine different towns and cities
and come from twenty-five different
high schools, and while the Presbyte-
rians lead, the fact that the institu-
ton is not narrowly denominational Is
shown when it is known that its stu
dents represent eleven different de-
nominations and others who do not be-
long to any church. There are among
the students Presbyterians, Congrega-
tionalists, Baptists, United Presbyteri-
ans, Methodists, Friends, Christian
Scientists, Jews and Disciples of Christ.
For several years the college has been
fully accredited with northern uniVer-
sites, and this year the academy Will
become so accredited.
The growth of the school is shown
by the fact that this year its acad
eny has forty-two candidates In the
fourth year class for graduation, while
the largest attendance in that class
heretofore was last year, when 1t num-
bered twenty-six.

the men backing this institution and

BOUND TO WIN

4 GAIN Mr.. Pinchot has met the
IN enemy, and again he has won.
IA His reception at the National Ir-
rigation congress IN Pueblo, Colo, was
no less cordial, and he left 1t with no
less confidence in the sincerity and
soundness of his general purpose than
was the case on the occasion Of his
visit to the Mining congress in Los
Angeles a few days ago.
The personality Of the man at once
convinces those who hear him that he
is with the people and against syn
dicated greed in the battle now on
and the greater fight impending. Such
words as these must convince even the
strongest prejudice:
The basis principle Of this fight
of yours and mine is that 1t Is
better to help the small man make
a living than to help the big man
make a profit; TO indorse the idea
that the natural resources do not
belong to q few rich men, mainly
in Wall street, but that they belong
and must be kept in the possession
of the people.
Some months ago Mr.. Pinchot went
to the northwest to address the lum-
bermen. 1t was "the enemy's country"
for almost as a unit the lumbermen
were bitterly opposed to his conserva-
ton ideas. He came away numbering
them among his friends, and q fort
night ago, at the close Of the con-
servation congress, he was their honor
guest at a dinner in ST. Paul.
Such a man as Clifford Pinchot, with
truth and justice on his side, will pre-
vail against everything that can be
nut in his way Railroad men formerly
fought with bitterness federal super
vision of their lines. Today the Wisest
among them openly say 1t is for the
best. Mining and oil men who today
oppose Pinchot and his purposes will
show wisdom if they join hands with
him and try to find common ground
from which they can together promote
reforms that are coming whether they
fight them or not.

ILL-ApyIsEp PusLlcITY

Editor Herald: The clerical gentle
men and others so emphatically and
publicly denouncing awful conditions at
the beaches are assisting the publicity
committees of the resorts wonderfully.
No one, of course, for a moment en-
tertains the opinion that they are other
than sincere. But they call to mind a
preacher who once made talk to boys.
He deplored all kinds of badness, and
cited his boyhood career as an awful
example.
Just think how bad was!" he said
on reaching the climax. II used to
catch frogs, put firecrackers in their
mouths and blow them up" Then
graphically he described the agony OF
the frogs. At the conclusion of his ad-
dress he flattered himself he had made
a great impression for good, as the
boys listened attentively. Just as he
was leaving the building, however, he
overheard two urchins discussing the
talk. One said:
Gee, Bill; amt that great scheme?
Won't we have a dandy time with the
old bull puddles down in the medder?"

EAST VS.. WEST

IN HE keynote Of Judge Shorts ad-
dress at the mining congress at
Il tacking the policy Of conservation
was the claim in substance that the
north, south and east sections of the
country have had their share of the
national wealth, wasted 1t in riotous
living and now seek to rob the west Of
it's heritage. Others who oppose the
Pinchot policies have also used this
extravagant figure.
1t is a sophistical plea, appealing to
the narrowest selfshness in man and
invites him to consult only his own
private interest in judging a policy
whose sole purpose is to save the nation
al wealth from concentration into the
hands of syndicated wealth. 1t is not
a patriotic, broad, fair discussion of
the question. One would think from
such arguments that we are to un-
derstand that the west is regarded in
other parts of the United States as an
other country, and that If we do not
fight we will be stripped by a hostile
force.
The east bought this great western
empire from Mexico with it's money.
The fathers and mothers and brothers
OF our miners and business men HVe
in the Yeast by thousands and have
helped them succeed. Eastern faith in
and good will toward the west have
been attested by millions of capital
poured in to develop our mines and
water powers and to build our cities.
Eastern money has promoted reclama-
tlon enterprises and built irrigation
systems. Financially and by blood re-
lation the east is bound up in the well
fare OF the Pacific slope.
If the east wants the vast wealth
remaining in the mines, streams and
forests conserved for the common veal
and kept out of monopolistic control,
how can 1t be fairly accused Of a de-
sire to block the development of the
west? HOW could 1t really profit
thereby? The play of sectional preju-
dice in a. discussion of a great, broad
question in which every man, woman
and child Of the country has an interest
can only react on us. 1t will be better
If we try to find some common ground
on which we can work with the east
in a movement whose inherent justice
is bound to make it succeed against
all opposition.
