.P|TTMAN STANDS FOR NEVADA

In considering mans fitness for
the position of United States
senator there are many things
which must be taken into account.
In Nevada a man should be sent to
the senate who is CONVEX SAINT with
mining affairs, because much of
the states wealth is derived from
the mines. He must be progress
sive, honest, the possessor of
oratorical ability and a man who
will side with the masses of the
people rather than With the power
full interests.
In Key Pittman, the democratic
nominee for United States senator,
Nevada AS a man possessing all
these requisites. Mr., Pittman
learned tho mining game from the
ground up. He worked with pick
and shovel for two winters and
summers in Dawson. He arrived
at the new camp of Tonopah in
1901 and engaged in the practice
of law handling many cases IT,
which hundreds of thousands Of
dollars were involved. Mr. Pitt
man is one of the foremost mining
lawyers in the west His ability in
this regard would serve him in
good stead as United Sta es Senator
from Nevada. His honesty and his
oratorial ability are above
q lestion.
Mr.. Pittman is a progressive in
the broad sense of the word. He
stands for the Initiative and
Referendum, the Recall IF all
elective officers, Election of United
States senators by direct vote of
the pc 2ple, Tax on Incomes, Equal
Suffrage and above all the Adolf
ton Of the Commerce Court which
has been an obstacle to Nevada's
progress along industrial lines. a
measure which Sens .or Massey, in
the face of Nevada's protest voted
to sustain, thereby placing himself
s4uarely on record with the stand
patters anil the Interests opposed
to Nevada's relief from unjust and
Ubiquitous back haul charges.
Key Pittman's election would
mean a senator placed in the upper
house to work in unison with
Senator Newlands for the State of
Nevada. Nevada's vote would be
cast as unit and mt lost as it was
when the question of the abolish
ment of the Commerce Court came,
Senator Newlands voting to over.
ride the veto Of II e presl dent and
Senator Massey voting to sustain
Taft and keep the obstacle to
Nevada's progress in existence.

The night before We reached the dock Bertha told me that she had con fided to young Jacobson that she had a lot of lace sewed on to her clothes that she proposed to Smuggle through. I gasped for breath, but, knowing 1t would be useless to say anything, held my peace. The next morning Bertha went ashore with me, Jacobson going before. While we were standing over our baggage waiting for an eXaminN- ton 1 noticed him talking with an in spector and looking toward us. Then the customs man came to us and told Bertha to come with him. went, too, and she was taken 10 a room where a woman examined her clothing and eN- posed the smuggled lace.

Gs EAT IS ALASKA.

One of the most interesting and op- timistc editorials ever written about Alaska is contained in a recent is- sue of the Morning Oregoutan, of Portland.
 The writer pens a beautiful picture of Alaska Y the supposed change of the Japan current is permanent The Oregonian says:
 Nature seems to have favored the United States in its acquisition of Alaska Politicians have exploit ed it merceuaries have plUCked tt, and theorists have tried to bottle il, but steadily with the years Nature has lUto(ded it's wealth and disclosed to an aStoUiShcd world it's grand properties and possibilities. Now is aurferouS sands have yielded up un, guessed treaSuDes, now its colonies Of seals have laden commerce with valuable peltS; again it's fisheries have given returns in excess of all expectation, and yet again, and more wonderful than all. the pos sISjlities # agriculture within its sreat expanse have been established, while its IDmeasurcd timber areas and undeveloped coal mines suggest a national opulence that in coUtcmp- lseio0 su-pass the dreams of avartce,
 And now comes a report of soStening of the Arctic into the North Temperate zone temperature along the coast through the shifting oI the Japan current inshore. due to a con. ylls5ou of Nature whereby islands have been erupted into the North Pacific. A temperature aS soft as that Of April is recorded at SEagway with little o- no snow on the ground climatic conditions that have never before. so far as records show. pre vailed iU that far Northern city, tc account for which the theory of the shifting inshore of the Japan current due to seismic disturbances Of the ooean-bed. has been advanced.
 Whatever the cause. the effect noted ls magical and, if permanent will affect the entire peninsula. The great bare uplands of the Yukon river, carpeted with wild flowers ir the greatest variety and protusion ir the short summer. and piled high with snow in winter, will become p7cductve grain fields. pastures and garden tracts dotted with homes and schools and churches. Stock industry and poultry raising will become prof table and the dependence of the citi zens of Alaska upon more southern lands for means Of subsistence dur ing the long twilight of the year wiu cease. HomeSteading on the great plateaus of the wonderful benin sula will develop from a vague posSi hiEty into certainty that will fur niSh an abiding place for thousands; the clutch Of conservation will loosen its hold upon the forest and coal fields. and rom the iRhoSpjtable sil epce of the shadovy land known ir the geOgraphies of the past genera tons as "RuSS:an-America, and vaguely known at that-aU empire of suTpaSsing beauty and fertility and Of SoundIess resources will be evolv cd.

1t is not a cumbersome instrument

most a perfect design of the violin
made by machinery. 1t doesn't seem
that one more handsome and durable
could be made 1t is fitted together 50
perfectly that the eye can hardly de-
tct where the joints are. 1t is also
highly polished and beautifully stain
ed. The tone is very mellow and
even. Rev. Hallman can himself pro-
duoe excellent music on this instru-
ment of his manufacture. This is the
third one he has made and he says
that he anticipates making others on
which he expects to champion the
country for workmanship.
