At STATE CAPITAL.

indianapolis. Ind. March oe.-One X
the interesting features of the cam
paign thus far is the wording of the
resolution adopted by the democratic
delegation to the national convention
the other day declaring for Governor
Marshall for president. The meeting
was held in the evening after the close
of the state convention, and was at
tended by practically all of the dele
gates elected to the national conven-
ton. 1t will be remembered that SEN
ator Shiyely was elected cha irfnan of
the delegation. and that Thomas Tag
CART unanimously reelected ma
tional committeeman from Indiana in
spite of his frantic and herculean eff
forts TO tear away and keep from be-
Ing nominated
But the resolution Is the point that
is just now attracting the attention of
the politicians. because no one can tell
just what l. means 1t was written by
Senator John W. Kern, who is friend
| to the governor. but who. also, is en-
| joying a life size boom for the nomi-
| nation for the presidency.
The resolutions reads as follows:
| The Indiana delegation to the Balti-
more convention at its first meeting
sends greetings to the Hon. Thomas r..
Marshall and assures him not only our
collective but our individual support.
and gives him further assurance that
! from now until the assembling of that
convention We are at his service.
| Tho question now is this: i the
delegates are at the service of the gov
| ernor up to the time the convention
assemblies a whose service Will they
] be after the convention opens? Some
of the democrats profess to see in the
wording of that resolution an indica-

doctrines of socialism and the Catholic
church are Numerically opposed to
each other.
Takes Fling At Single Tax.
He did not question the sincerity of
belief of many socialists, when they
say that socialism does not conflict
with religion. but he asoribed that be-
lief to the fact that they had made
only a superficial study of socialism,
and that they are ignoring the public
utterances of men prominent in their
rank
Father Raymond upheld religion on
the ground that it is elevating, that 1t
fills spiritual want. and denounced
socialism because 1t is a social leveler
and caters merely to the sensual well
fare of man.
While some socialists attempt to
draw a distinction. between socialism
and communism. Father Raymond used
the terms INTERCHANGEABLE, putting the
doctrines of both in the same category.
and Incidentally took fling at the
single tax doctrine.
Warns Catholics.
The lecture was seasoned with good
natured wit and a tinge Of sarcasm and
was climaxed with a picture of condi-
lions they might exist if the theories
of some of the most radical socialist
writers and philosophers were put into
practice.
The salient features OF the picture
were, free love, no marrying or divorce,
no responsibility for parenthood, public
institutions In the nature of founding
homes. everybody on social level with
everyone else. in fact the human race
nothing more than an immense stock
farm. without a much as pedigree for
Its products
Looking at socialism in this light. he
said no Catholic could conscientiousiy
affiliate himself with the party or
preach its doctrines especially If wants
to be at all consistent.

MORE FARM HORSES NOW

1t remained for the thirteenth
censu to disclose the fact that
there are more horses on farms
and ranges in the United States
now than there ever we're before,
that their average value is higher
and that horses are by far the
most valuable of domestic animals.
The value of all live stock,
domestic animals, poultry and bees
that were reported to the census
takers in 1901 was S4,S95, 600, 600.
This was 81, 800, 900. 900 more than
was reported in 1900, S3.075, OOO,-
600. The increase was 59.2 per
cent. In 1900 cattle held first
place, counting as per cent of the
total value of these classes of
animals. During the decade the
value of cattle grew less than |
per cent, while horses increased in
value by Sl,lSO, OOO, 900. In other
words, practically all the increase
in the value of domestic animals
in the decade was in horses.
Cattle now are worth only 800
per cent of the total value, and
horses have advanced from go 10
42.4 per cent. In addition mules
have gained 1926, 900, 900 in value,
or 1862 per cent, and have
advanced from Ga per cent of the
1900 total to 1917 per cent in 1910.
Horses and mules now are worth
more than all the other animals
reported on farms and ranges.
Swine have gained $l6G, 0OO, 600
in the decade and are now worth
$500, 600, 900, or 81 per cent of
the whole.
Sheep have gained 5000, 600, 600
but have lost in the relative
scale.
There YER in 1910 $1,000, 900

were nearly 20, 900. 600 horses and

NEW LAW FIRM

Attorneys Charles B. Henderson.
Edwin E. Caine and Ransom C. Van
Fleet have formed a law partner
ship under the firm name OF Hend-
erson, Game and Van Fleet.
Attorneys Caine and Henderson
are too well known to the people
of Elko couny to need any intro
duction from us. Both are
energetic, able, skilled attorneys
who have made a success of their
chosen profession.
The third member of the firm,
Mr.. Van Fleet, is a stranger to the
people of Elko county. He is a
native of California, 33 years of
age. He is the son of Judge w.
c. Van Fleet Of the United States
District Court Of California. He
graduated from the University of
California in 1897 and from the
Hastings law college of San Fran
cisco in 1900. He held the posi-
tion of assistant attorney general
of California for several years.
His thorough legal training
coupled with his pleasant person.
aIity, will doubtless make him a
popular member of the firm. His
father ~practiced in Elko in 1874
and he is doubtless remembered
by the old timers.
The Independent wishes the new
firm unbounded success. This they
hope to achieve by earnest work
and a loyal devotion to the inter.
esis of their clients.

Primeaux case.
Judge Klatte had a vag and a
drunk before him today. The
drunk was given ten days in Jail
and the vag was told to get out of
town.
Judge Morgan is considerably

cough and is very weak. HIS he
is getting along toward the 9Oth

much as he could in his younger
days. Hope to see him out again
before many days.
Constable Happier informs us
that Justice Gray's decision in the
Hess case meets with the approval
of a large majority of the people
Of Carlin. That the charge in the
complaint was assault with intent
to kill Mr.. Warning, and the evil
dence showed that q man named
Lowell was the person assaulted.
There was no evidence that Hess
made an assault on Warning. The
fault, if any, was in drawing the
complaint.
Packard, the cartoonist, will

was no danger of the disease
spreading.

1t is reported that gambling
games at Buckhorn have been
running wide open for some time
and that recently notice had been
received that gambling must stop
or the state police would be sent
there to enforce the law. If this
report be true the sheriff of
Eureka county should wake up
and tell the people why he has not
enforced the law.
Governor Wilson's presidential
boom seem to be getting some
hard knocks because he asked
H%arper's Weekly to quit support
ing him. The reason given for
the governors request is that the
support of that paper vas injuring
his presidential chances. It this
time we cannot see anything in
Governor Wilson'S action that will
injure him with the RAM and file
of his party. His action certainly
proves him to be a man of decided
views and n who is not afraid to
express them. Whether or not it
was a wise thing for him to do is
another question. He evidently
thought it was.

considering ways and means for
establishing a Y. M. C. A. in Elko

airy officers. DR.. McClelland was
elected temporary chairman, and
Weekly independent. [volume] (Elko, Nev.) 1887-1914, 1912-01-19
Anderson temporary

secretary.
Or. McClelland now addressed
the meeting on conditions as he
had found them in Elko relative
to a I. M. c. A. He had thought
to find more unity in a movement
for an independent association
supported by all denominations
He had found this not the case.
He had received much encourage
ment for the immediate establish
ment of the association and much
disapproval of the plan. He
favored the establishing of a Y. M.
c. A. that would be a social home
for the youth of Elko. to the end
that some of the evils now
rampant among boys and young
men may be overcome. He fore
saw nothing but failure for the
plan unless there is entire unity in
the movement.
Remarks were made on the
question at hand by Rev. Howell,
MIR. Price, Mr.. G~reathouse, Mr..
Tremewan, Mr.. Bonham, Mr.. Clark,
Mr.. Anderson and others.
Members of the Presbyterian
Church stated that the Church is
now planning to have rooms in
the basement of the new Presby-
terrain church to accommodate a
Y. NJ. C. A. and that it is now
the wish of the church that they
be allowed to prepare the rooms
and then turn them over for n
number Of years to a Y. M. C. A.
for a nominal rental.
Mr.. Bonham stated that he had
in the past called a mass meeting
for the same purpose this meeting
was called, and that Mr.. P. G.
McWhinney had been elected
President of the Elko Y. Nj. C. A.
organigzation at that time. He
stated that he and DIR. E. j. Clark
were an appointed committee of
publicity, and that a finance
committee with John A. Mcbride
at the head had been appointed.
Mr.. Bonham was very much
grieved that none of these COM.
mittees had done their duty, and
was especially sorry that President
McWhinncy was not present at
this time to report what he had
done and if nothing had been
done, why the officers had not
done their duty.
1t developed that Rev. Green
field had pledged $500 for the
support of this former organiza-
tion, but that when 1t had seemed
to fail he favored the establish
ment Of n Y. M. c. A. in the
building Of the new Presbyterian
church, the association, however
not to be under the management
of the church in any way.
During the discussion of the
evening the public pool rooms of
the town were ~severly criticized
as being places where boys Of
tender years congregate in the
evenings and play pool in mixed
companies, smoke and chew
tobacco, and listen to language
wholly unfit for youngsters.
Upon the showing that there
was already an organized move
msnt for the establishment of q Y.
NJ. c. A. in Elko, there seemed
no reason for further action by
the citizens at a mass meeting and
upon motion duly carried the
meeting voted that no action be
taken in regard to a Y. N. C A.
but that the matter be le.. in
the hands of the present organiza-
ton and the Presbyterian church.
A standing vote of thanks was
now rendered DR.. McClelland for
his efforts and the meeting
adjourned.
