A MERRY CHRISTMAS

Before another issue OF the
Times Christmas of l01Z will
have come and gone. The people
OF Nevada, Lyon county especi-
ally, and the Yerington district
particularly, have cause to con
graduate themselves on the condi-
tons which exist to make "Mcr-
nv Christmas. There is no abb
iect poverty in Nevada, and there
will probably not be family who
will not have good dinner and
the children receive some token IN
remembrance of the day. 1t Is
different in the East and Middle
West. There organizations are
taking hand in raising funds to
purchase food, fuel, clothes and a
few presents for the needy. There
are those in the crowded cities
who do not know what Christmas
is. Here, in the broad West pres
ents are given with lavish hand,
an indication that times are good
and the section prosperous.
The people of this district
should be particularly thankful
for the bright outlook for the
years ahead The future spells
prosperity in all directions and
in every line OF business, includ-
ing the storekeepers, the farmer
and the miner. Could there be
more to be happy about than the
people of this favored community
have?

KNOCK THE KNOCKER.

Invitations are out for the ban
quet to be given on January 8,
1913, at which it is hoped Cham
Der OF Commerce, Board OF Trade,
or commercial body OF some kind
will be organized which will do
some consistent boosting and adj
vertising for the benefit of Lyon
county, thereby taking some OF
the burden from the shoulders of
the few public spirited citizens
who have had all OF this kind OF
business to do.
There should be no room for
knockers in the institution that
is formed. They should be rele-
gated to the shades of perpetual
oblivion. An irresponsible, non
producer, fault-fnder and NAL
content can do more injury to a
community than a dozen progress
sive boosters can counteract.
A pull all together will accom-
plish wonders for our undevclop
ed interests, but there must be nC
factions in the institution or i
will fail of its purpose.

LITTLE DAUGHTER Of
c. J. COLE DROWNED
IN IRRIGATION CANAL

Another of those pathetic accidents,
the drowning of a baby in an irriga-
ton canal, which have brought sor-
row to a number of families in the
valley, occurred yesterday when the
15-months-old daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. c. J. Cole, living three miles west
of FL Centre on the Eucalyptus lateral.
fell into that canal.
The baby was playing with her s.
year-old brother near the house, and
the latter came running to his mother
and told her the baby had fallen into
the canal. Rushing down the stream,
the mother found the body floating in
the stream and plunged in and res
cued it, but life was already gone.
Mr.. Cole was in town today arrang-
ing for the funeral, he and his wife
being overcome by the shock of the
accident, but deeply grateful for many
acts of kindness from the neighbors.
The funeral will be held tomorrow
at Thomas Forces home. a half mile
west of the McCabe church, Rev. Kin
ter speaking words of comfort, and in
terment will follow in Evergreen
cemetery.

PARCEuNG OUT POST0FF|CES
UNDER NEW ADMINISTRATION
IS NOW RECEIVING attention

Here is an awful state of affairs
Being Democrat, you will naturally
expect to be appointed postmaster, but
the horror of it is that there are so
few postmasters compared with the
great number of Democrats. And now
what are you going to do about it?
Are you going to have a new order
established. making every Democrat
his own postmaster?
In this county there are only about
dozen postmasters to be appointed in
the next year, and the situation is des-
perate.
In Ell Centre the office of postmaster
will fall open to the Democrats in
June, and Mr.. Miller being a Republi
can, it is hardly probable he has any
thought of keeping the place If he
should have. there are Democrats who
have other thoughts, and their wishes
are more apt to be given considera-
ton.
But the joke of it is that while there
are number of men in El Centre
who are holding out their arms TO
catch the postmastership, there is a
lady who is understood to have her
apron spread for the same purpose,
and the chances seems to be very
much in favor of the lady
That is to say, that in all probabili-
ty the next postmistress will be
