Highland COunty's Candidates.

Highland county has three candi-
dates for delegate to the Constitu-
tional Convention. They are Irwin
McD. Smith, DR.. II. NJ. Brown and
Berry w. Spargur. All Of them have
made statements giving TO the people
their views on the matters which are
causing the greatest discussion.
The statement Of Mr.. Spargur will
be found in another column of this
paper. DR.. Browns and Mr.. Smiths
were published in previous issues.
These statements should be studied
by the voters of Highland county, as
they are the platforms on which the
candidates ask for support.
All of these candidates are men OF
ability, upright, honorable men, each
of whom will give his best thought
and careful study to solving the ques-
tions that will come before the con-
vention.
The thing to be desired then is that
the man who most nearly represents
the ideas and views of the people of
this county should be elected.
il ever voter should put aside his
personal friendship or enmity 1t is in
the selection of delegate to the Con.
stitutional Convention. Principles Of
great Importance are involved and the
fate of these principles will be deter
mined by the men selected as men,
bers lof the Convention. If you be-
lieve in the initiative and referendum
vote for a man that does. If you are
opposed to liquor license vote for a
man that opposes 1t. II you think
candidate is able and honest, don't
pay any attention to him in a personal
way, but study his platform and vote
for or against him, as 1t represents
your ideas.
We had hoped that in the contest
In this county, there would be only
two candidates, a conservative and
progressive. This we believed would
mean the selection OF man, who
represented the wishes Of majority
of the people Of the county. And
this we think is only right.
DR.. Brown and Mr.. Spargur are
classed as progressives and Mr.. Smith
as a conservative. This means an
undoubted division Of the strength of
the progressives, while the undivided
support of the conservatives will be
back of Mr.. Smith. Under this con-
dition almost two.thirds Of the peo-
pie Of Highland county might be pro-
gressive and a conservative be elected.
This would not be fair to the people.
But the people have this condition to
face and our hope is that the man who
most nearly represents the views Of
the people be elected.
The constitution Of the state is a
matter Of great Importance TO all its
citizens and every man before he casts
his vote should carefully study the
questions under discussion so that he
can vote intelligently. Any man who
does not know what candidate
stands for and has not studied the
questions to be decided is not good
citizen.
Cast an intelligent vote.

A progressive is man who pushes
a principle while it is new, conserva'
tive, one, who takes up with it after
1t is established The progressive
believes there is room for improve
ment. the conservative wants to leave
things just as they have been.

Many were the words of sorrow
and sympathy spoken yesterday
when it was learned that our fellow
townsman, Christopher Malatsta, had
passed out of earth's existence, the
end coming at St. Georges hospital,
Reno, Saturday night at II o'clock.
In the early afternoon of Saturday
an operation was performed for liver
trouble. Mr.. MaIatsta came out of
the operation, but in a very weak
ened condition, death occurring the
time stated above.
The deceased was born in Genoa.
Italy, in 1S49, and came to this
state a mere boy in the COS, dur
ing the White Pine excitement, and
later on moved to Eureka, where
he lived for many years. Later he
went to Delamar, and in 1901,
with his family, came to Tonopah,
where he has since resided.
About a month ago he went to
Carson City for medical treatment
and two weeks ago entered the
Reno hospital that the operation,
which proved fatal, might be per-
formed.
During the boom days the de-
ceased was possessed of considerable
wealth. and at one time could have
written his check in the neighbor-
hood of 100000 When the Nye
and Ormsby County bank failure
occurred, his guilt-edge securities
were coniiscated and the amount
realized on them by its president
was never made known to the de-
ceased. The sudden loss of his
wealth impaired his health and, to.
gether with stomach troubles, has
tened his demise.

DIVORCE GRANTED
YEARS Ago FOUND
TO Be A FRAUD
DIVORCE OBTAINED IN 1901 SET
ASIDE BY COURT BECAUSE
OF FRAUD USED.

EAST ST. LOUIS, H., Oct. 16.--
Judge Vandevanter, in the city court
Saturday, on the plea of Mrs. Chas.
A. Stevenson, widely known on the
stage long ago as Kate Claxton, set
aside the divorce granted to the
actor husband of Mrs. Stevenson in
the same court in 1901.
In his decision Judge Vandevanter
said he had found the divorce had
been obtained by false, fraudulent
and perjured testimony" calling at
tention to the fact that in Steven
sons petition his middle initial had
been omitted. The judge said it
was his opinion that Caroline Grant,
from whom a deposition was read
at the divorce trial ten years ago,
was myth The court said he
had found Stevenson was not a
resident of the city or state at the
time he brought suit
Mrs. Claxton, who is 62 years
old, alleged that she never heard
of the divorce until 1910. The
judge, in his decision Saturday, saic
he found Stevenson as late as 1908,
had written to Mrs. Claxton as
Dear Wife"
Stevenson, who is said to be play
ing in or near Boston, married Miss
Frances Riley, an actress, after
obtaining his divorce in 1901.

SECOND GAME FOR WORLDS

SIIlBE PARK, Philadelphia Oct
16.-With all the seats and stand

stand and bleachers of the Phil

and even standing room on the
field all taken, more than 10000
hungry fans were turned away from
the 12 turnstiles. 1t is estimated
that more than 10000 people wit
messed the second game of the post
series between the Philadelphia Ath-
letics and the New York Giants
The day was an ideal one for
both spectator and player. Round
upon round of applause was given
the Athletics as they appeared from
the clubhouse on the their way
to the field preparatory to warm
ing up for the struggle of their
, lives. "Muggsy" McGraw with his
warriors appeared confident and
manager and players bowed repeat
edly as they passed the grandstand
in single file.
The usual custom of introducing
the scorers, umpires and batteries
were gone through, and after the
warming up stunt was over, the
game was started in earnest by
the umpires representing the Amer
ican league calling: "Play ball"
The Athletics were in much bet
ter form than on Saturday, playing
an errorless game.
The Giants started the first inning
with an error by Doyle. Both pitch
ers were in the pink of condition,
Marquard, for New York, allowing
only hits, while Eddie Plank, the
trusted twirler for Connie Mack
allowed five hits. However, Plank
managed to keep his hits scattered
apart better than did the big twirler
of the Giants. Collins, Plank, Old
ring and Thomas were the bright
particular stars Of the Athletics,
while Devore, Murray, Fletcher and
Myers were the aurora borealises
for the Giants.
The score of the second game OF
the post series is as follows:
