SHOULD STOP MAssACREs.

Again the annual massacre Of Jews has be-
Gun in Russia and we are Mortified by the stories
of outrage and bloodshed that come from hlett
How long we wonder will civilization permit this
sort of thing?
It does seem that the United States might
take the lead in a protest to Russia, that some
diplomatic representation might be made winch
would check the terrible slaughter. Let this
country act with decision and there will be
concert of approval from all other enlightened
powers
Owing to the large number of Jews IN this
country and their intense loyalty as American
citizens the United States is in a position to
protest The massacres could be stopped with
little difficulty were civilized nations not inclined
to let them pass each year with nothing more
than idle comment
This government should resent in behalf OF
it's Jewish citizens the continuance OF such bar
barities It's protest need not be belhgerent IN
tone, but should be sufficiently to the point to
shame the government of Russia into protective
action.

EASY-WRINGING MOPS
BOON TO HOUSEWIVES

One of the latest labor-saving de-
vices on the market, one that will
be hailed with delight by all the
housewives, is the new "easy-wring-
ing" mop. 1t makes homework a
pleasure, inasmuch as the hands
need not be soiled when cleaning
floors. All that is necessary is to
turn a small knob and the mop
is much drier than it is possible to
make it by useless physical exer-
ton. II can be made equally use
full on the floor, wall or ceiling
The price is reasonable and the
handy little time and temper saver
may be seen at the Bonanza office

AGAINST THE GOVERNMENT.

'ThanE God it's over says one, say all,
when referring to the last session OF the legls-
lature of the state of Nevada Not tear is
shed over the corpse. Not single regret is
heard over the exit of that most useless body
Against the administration from start to finish
was the late session Absolutely the most no.
account bunch that ever journeyed to Carso1
to misrepresent the people of this state. Not
an administration measure introduced but
that it met with the flibusteripg tactics ana
was eventually carried down to defeat. lnsfcal
Of lending aid to governor of sterling worth,
the legislature blocked his every move and en-
deavored to tie his hands.
The moral to citizens: Remember these men
when next you visit the polls. Twenty-three
is the number for the assembly as body and
should be the number of its individual members
at the next election.

THAT ALCOHOL TAX.

Who is responsible for the introduction OF
the bill that proposed that druggists should pay
an annual tax of 5000 for the handling OF al
coho? This is question that is bothering a
great many interested parties. OF course As
semblyman Coke of Lincoln was the man who
introduced the measure but it is not generally
believed that he did so Of his own accord. 1t
is the consensus Of opinion that some sore
head with "a peeve against the drug business,
is behind the measure and simply made OF
Coke goat.
However, the senate showed good sense in
killing the measure, which was arbitrary and
unjust Credit is also due to Assemblyman
Piercy of Nye county who fought the measure
in the lower house and upon its passage, re-
moved the scene Of his activity to the senate
where he worked with such good results that tho
bill went down to the death that it deserved

CORRUPT PRACTICE ACT.

BY one solitary vote the assembly defeated
senate bill No 40 introduced by Senator Clay
Talman. and to that one vote great credit is
due The measure was one to ''lmit the eX-
penditures of officeseekers during campaign
times, and it is said that one person, at least,
was most anxious for it's passage. Rumor also
has it that the man most strongly In favor OF
the passage of this act is one who has aspira-
tions te step into Senator Newlands' shoes at
the next election 1t might be well to add that
the gentleman referred to and Mr.. Newlands
are both of the same political complexion, and
the party who wishes to fill the place OF the
democratic senator expected to make the fight at
a minimum cost 'Tis well the measure was
defeated.
