We have situation very similar
to the above here in Clark county,
involving office-holders of both
parties, which may be analysed by
this paper for the benefit of voters
before the campaign is over.
When fnen who have been honored
by their party descend to the level
Of mere. office-seekers regardless of
their party they have no claim to
further consideration from those
who are faithful to party and party
principles. And their downfall is
only matter of time, for very

length of time and none can do
so to their own final advantage.

THE GAMBLER IN POLITICS

The fellow interested in promot-
ing the gambling industry will
show a real disposition to be good
when he shows a disposition to keep
out of politics. This type of
statesman has no party but he is a
politician by instinct. Here is the
condition We had in Goldfield two
years ago and this was his notion
of prosperity:
Payroll of Mines and Rail-
roads per mo. ........ $4,000
Payroll of Gambling In
stitutions per mo. go. $4,000
If the gambling house could pay
500, 900 to men for trying to get
this productive payroll there must
have been some profit in doing so.
After the profits we're paid how
much was left to the fellow who
earned it? When we see the
advocate of return to this system
getting active we don't even have
to wonder why. We simply watch

IMMENSE PAY DAY
At PANAMA

An account IF only one of the
features of The Panama canal will
give some idea of the immensely of
the work. Thirty-eight thousand
men are employed, and each pay
day; once a month and covering a
space of three days, $500, 900 is
distributed to the workmen. The
system of paying off is SIMPLE and
orderly, and so devised that very
little time is lost. The dishursing
office is at Empire and here
Edward J. Williams, the chic
disbursing officer of the Canal
Commission, and. his assistant,
William M. Wood, together with a
large corps of clerks and accoun-
tants, make out the pay roll for
this army of workers.
Various systems of payment have
been tried, but the one now in use
seems to have worked out with the
least friction. Every employee is
given brass check containing a
number which will identify him as
long as he is in the employ of the
Canal Commission. He is paid by
the hour and his foreman keeps his
time. This is forwarded to the
disbursing Office and his pay
certificate made out from this
record. 1t is authenticated by the
examiner of accounts and disburs-
ing officer, and then returned to the
foreman who delivers it to the in
dividual whose brass check number
is on the certificate. The man is
then told the hour and day the pay
car will be in his vicinity, and he
is expected to fall in line and
receive his wages.
Pay day occurs on the 18th,
18th and 18th of each month.
During the early day of the work
it was customary 10 issue checks on
the United States to employees of
such amounts as they required
each month, as an accommodation
in forwarding money to the United
States. This, however, was
abolished when it was discovered
that some of the men were abusing
the privilege by securing the
checks for the purpose of selling
them to merchants and others to |
be cashed. BY the present system,
The white men are known as the
gold employees" and are paid in |
gold coin, and the
negroes as Silver employee" being
paid in Panama silver, equal in
value to gold. For time the
white men we're paid in United
States paper but It was found that
he merchants and other shipped
We bills out of the country as fast
IS they came in. The merchants
we're thus saved from paying bank
exchange, and the expense of
furnishing this money fell upon the
Canal Commission. Thi. finally

The vast acres which have so long
remained in big ranches, but the
latter few years are being in
tensively farmed. have shown such
surprising fertility and production
the farmers are booming rich from
their own labor. =
Nothing to compare with condi-
lions in many sections of the west
has ever been met with before e'en
in the wonderful record Of develop
ment throughout the United States.
The only drawback to more than
double the fortunes which have
been made in many localities is the
lack of labor. 1t cannot be secur-

SETTLERS FLOCKING IN
Thousands of settlers have rush
ed to Southern California this
summer and some are pushing on
to Nevada but they are not looking
for work in the sense of workig for
wages. They are land buyers who
desire to reap not only the wages
which others would gladly pay, but
the reward of increment which
time and development would bring
when working their own farms.
They have from come from the
congested cities Of the east, from
the oVer-worked acres of the middle
western states, from the countries
Of excessive heat to land where
sunshine insures crops, where
alfalfa, grain. produce and fruit is
grown at an enormous profit and
the work is not interrupted by the
long severe winters of black east"
CHANGE IN RECENT YEARS
To those who know the valleys
of Elko county a few years ago.,
their present appearance is little
less than astounding and great
crops arc growing upon land where
great herds roamed before and
orchards and gardens have sprung
up from the midst of wild land and
where every thing once was brown
with sage brush it is now green
with alfalfa.
INFLUX HAS ONLY BEGUN
" 1t follows logically that the great
influx has but begun that this
year and the next and years to
come as fast as the large ranches
are subdivided the water will be
provided adequate to- the develop
ment of countless more fine produc-
tive farms. and Elko county will
be a county where prosperity
reigns supreme, rts G.s.A
More settlers soon become in

is more factories with other lines
