CONGRESSMAN ROBERTS

Nevada has never had a more
faithful congressman than the man
who now holds that position, Hon.
Z. e. Roberts. Ed Is always on the
job" to use the language of the
street. No detail is too small for
his attention. No request from a
constituent is passed by, Nevadans
who have visited the national cap
ital recently testify to the high stand
ing amonng his colleagues. The state
chose wisely when it cast its vote
for him, and if he can be induced to
accept the office again the state will
greatly profit. If he is a candidate
this year there will be no doubt OF
his election, for he will have the sup.
port of a great many Democrats as
well as the united support of the
Republicans. In a nutshell he vii

A MATTER OF SELFlSHNESS

A Chicago firm, a mail order house,
purchased five million three-cent
stamps from the governmental mail
away their yearly catalog. There is
only one way for the local merchant
to offset this, and that is by appeal
ing to the people of the community
to purchase at home and offering
their bargains through the news
papers, showing the people of the dis.
trict that they can do just as well by
buying their goods in the district,
Some people purchase from home
merchants as a matter of principle
but others do not recognize any
principle, take no pride in their home
town and must be convinced that il
is going to benefit them personally
You cannot appeal to them with an
argument of keeping the money in
circulation here; they would send il
to China or the far ends of the earth
if they thought they could save one
cent on $40 purchase. Ely News.

Pers;a's Pine Guardian.

The queen Of pipes belongs to the
shah of Persia Why is the great chief
tain of pipes IA queen: Probably be-
cause pipe is feminine noun In
French. The little shah's pipe WAS
smoked by his father before him. and
by his uncle and by his grandfather,
and how many more of the rulers of
Darius kingdom we know not. The
pipe is adorned with alf kinds of pre-
cious stones and is said to be worth
f10000. it is constantly guarded by
A high court functiunary, whose duties
allow him rs much leisure as the s,iper-
intendent of the Persian arsenal, but
as there is no arsenal in Persia so the
extent of the slnecure may be judged.
Still. this functiunury is responsible.
This is how his Office was created:
once u grand viZi"r was found trying
to pry out stone from the pipe with
bis poniard Then the Office OF guard.
ian of the imperia pipe was created.

A WAY TO TEMPTATION

Phoebe was treated to a spectacle
one night this week which ought
to be dealt with severely by the Of
ficers of the law, if it is repeated.
Think of a number of girls, of
tender age, masquerading about the
streets and alleys after dark--dress-
ed in masculine clothes-Creating var
ious sorts of deviltry, innocent no
doubt, that their capers caused much
annoyance to some people.
The girls were not to blame; but
what about the parents of these fair
youngsters? Do they not know that
to allow them to go out unrestrained
as they did the other night is on
" to encourage these girls to do
worse things later on?
In some of the larger cities such
incidents as that which happened
here the other night would not be
permitted. If it were attempted, the
participants void be ronded up
and carted off to the police station !;
while the parents would later have
an opportunity to explain to the
Judge of the juvenile court why
they did not keep their daughters al
home, as these young Phoebe girls
should have been, away from any
temptations or demora!izing in
fluences.
