uttered a single word against his

has won votes by his clear logic, his
thorough ability and the prediction
has been made that his rise III the
political world will be rapid from
this time forward. Mr.. Tallnlan IS a
comparatively young man. His fu-

great service to the people Of this

Prop Gone

Once again have the Massey press
agents slipped a cog. They have
been maintaining that Massey voted
against the Commerce Court be-
cause the bill still contained the pro-
vision which threw civil service en-.
ployes on OF employment. Rather
the reverse now appears to be the
case. Instead of condemning this
section of the bill as passed, and
which contained no such provision,
President Taft wen to the trouble
in his veto message to specifically
recommend this section. SO another
prop has been taken from undo.
Massey's weak defense Of his action
in voting to retain the Commerc,
Court. That he lined up with
Guggie, Smoot and Root, Is so clear
" a matter OF record that denials
are useless.
The people OF Nevada are COINS
patters in the future to men pledged
to the Democratic progressive legls-
lation which means the rule OF tn,
people. Ii is Pittman and Tallman
now and no false statements, no
amount Of corporate influence can
swerye the voters from the pathway
OF progress. Nevada is going to do
its duty in giving the people them
selves control in the senate of the
United States by electing such meii
as Pittman and Tallman.

GIANT CATARACTS
Victoria Falls the Greatest OF the
Mighty Torrents

At one time waterfalls in large riv-
ers were interesting only because Of
their scenic beauty. and their very ex-
istence was deplored because they OBJ
structed navigation. But man has
found a way 10 harness these mighty
power producers and today they arc Of
the greatest value TO the commercial
world because the millions OF water
horse power can be changed into cleo
tricity and transmitted for hundreds
Of miles to he used az q reliable sub
stitute for our vanishing coal supply.
When it is remembered that two
cubic feet Of water. weighing 10
pounds. 10y failing a distance OF only
six feet will produce ore horse power
OF energy. 1t i easy 10 comprehend
that millions and millions Of horse
power are wasted every minute by the
torrents OF water tumbling over Ming
ara. the Victoria falls and the ICuassu
river and many lesser fails throughout
the world. This falling water is guided

copper wires TO the cities and towns

ing plants and to give us light and

-FOUR BROTHERS
WILL SEE WORLD
Have Quartet and Expect to
Pay Expenses by Their
Singing.

-Four brothers, ranging in age from
to 10, arrived in the city last night
from Clinton. They expect to see the
world by their own efforts and are
how headed for California, where they
VIII remain this winter They have a
Quartet and with their voices as az
asset, expect TO pay their expenses and
put aside little nest egg in addition.
They are the Cramer brothers, John.
aged 10, Frank, aged II, Mckinley,
aged IA, and Ruben, aged Z. Their
parents reside in Clinton, but the lads
have the wanderlust in their blood and
not wishing TO stagnate in the home
town, as they express il, are going to
travel the entire globe.
The smallest boy is a little white
headed chap, whose head does not
come up TO the waist of his biggest
brother. The bunch make some very
good harmony, and have been favor
ably received wherever they have ap
peared. Their practice is to gather
on the street, or in some pool room
| or hotel, where after singing severa

night they sang several selections il

BRIDES IN JAPAN.
First They Are Arrayed In White Silk.
Then In Red.

First They Are Arrayed In White Silk.
Then In Red.
Brides in Japan follow the same Gus
tom which prevails in the western world
that of wearing white at the wed
ding ceremony. at least during q part
of it. But the significance attached TO
the choice of this color is quite differ
ent on the two sides of the world.
The japanese bride is dressed first in
Respondent garments of white silk. the
sleeves OF the costume usually being
about three feet in length. while the
sash. an important feature. measures
about eleven feet in length.
But white is the mourning color in
Japan. and the bride leaving her par
ents' house considers herself dead in
the sense that she will never return
alive preferring death to divorce and
in consequence wearing a white cos
tune.
After the exchange OF cups Of sake
with the bridegroom. which is the most
important part of the wedding cere-
mOny, the bride changes her costume
TO a red one. This is called iromaoshi
changing color. Red is supposed to
have purifying power and perhaps
clears the minds OF the parties of all
/ association OF mourning.
This is the origin Of the japanese
custom OF using white costumes at wed
dings. but many people in modern ia.
pan do not any longer have time 10
bother their heads with these questions
of color and simply 90 ahead and mar.
~ according 10 the accepted custom.
