It Is a curious coincidence that lug

when they are required. and for that
reason only it is well worth while to
make case for them that may be
hung up at some particular spot on
the wall in spare room or box-room,
where they may be always found
whenever they are wanted. and the
case would make a very nice little

A FINE DISPLAY

At the Golden .Jewe1ry Store there
is probably the finest display OF sill
yer, China, precious stones. orna-
ments. and in fact a full line of all
that is useful and beautiful and orna-
mental. 1t is a stock fit for a larger
city and the prices are in all cases
within reason. Mr.. Epstine. who
now owns an interest in the store
invites the peope to come in and 1T
spect and get his prices before
ing away. His window is but an in
dication of what he has in stock.

Twenty Years Ago

TWENTY years ago the price OF
bar silver declined from one dollar
TO ninety cents and a great commo
ton ensued. Many mines in CoiC
RADIO and this state closed down be-
cause the ten cent drop made it I'M
possible to work the ores and ex-
tract a profit. Nevada, at that time,
was producing many thousands OF
dollars annually from its various
mines, and the sudden decline in the
white metal caused what can be
truthfully termed a panic.
To-day, with the price OF bar sill
yer quoted around sixty-four cents,
the mines OF Nevada are producing
more bullion than ever before in The
history of the state. In this camp
alone the output will exceed a mil
lion dollars per month and at that
the price of the white commodity s
virtually twenty-five cents lower
than when the state first experienced
its serious setback twenty years as~.
Scientific mining is attributed as
the cause that permits a greater pro-
fit being made with "a cent silver
and it is with such methods in adop-
ton that the millions Of dollars an
nually are paid from the silver mines
Of the United States. With silver at
its old mark of ninety cents. It
would be easy to surmise the eN-
tent of the prosperity that would re
suit for Nevada. but at even sixty
four cents the future appears
what cheerful.-Ronanza.

Settling the Lands

COMMENT has been free all ov-
non colonists have settled in Neva-
da, During the past year practic-
ally the only large ~colonlzing pro-
jects put through in this state have
come from the action OF the people
interested in bringing Utah settlers
into Nevada. Several hundred thous-
and acres of fertile lands have come
into their possession and actual
town building. land improvements
and staple farming is under way.
The fact that it has come about by
Mormon settlers seems to bring
forth comment. The same land has
been idle in this state since the first
white man came. The average Ne-
vadan only saw a GOV range and the
sheep man drifted over il. Now
comes a class OF hardy people. peo-
pie who have made Utah blossom,
men who know how to dry farm
and who will build cities and gov
ernments. They should be made
welcome in every sense.
In California the lands are being
settled with Greeks. with .Japs and
others. There is absolutely no COM
parIson between the situations. as
Nevada is gaining a population from
people who carry all the refinement
of the average American. who have
thrift and progressiveness. 1t is
such people that the state from Dor
der to border has needed.
The opening OF railroad lands to
such people is along broad and long
lines. The railroads. through their
grants. are overstocked with lands.
The people on the other hand are
land hungry, the opportunity is now
ripe for the benefit of both parties
and it is being taken advantage of.
Within FIVE years Nevada will
have double the population and 1t
will come by such settlements. Ev-
cry farm is an asset. and every fam
ily means prosperity. The Mormon
should be as, welcome as sunshine
and his work in Utah will be dupli-
Gated in Nevada.

Having been designated by the Rep

acy for that office, subject to the will
Of the voters at the Republican Primary

voters of this County, will say that

the wish of the people thot be selected
in the Primary and General Elections
to fill the office of Commissioner of

Candidacy of A. F. Perrier for

To the Citizens and Voters of Sedgwick

Being one of the candidates desienat-
ed by the county Assembly of the Rep.
ublican Party for nomination for the
office of Judge of the County Court
of Sedgwick County at the primary
election to be held on the 10th day of
September next, deem it due to the
voters of Sedgwick County to state my
position as candidate.
AS to politics, am and always have
been attached to the principles of
the Republican Party, but with
respect to the office to which
l aspire. l believe that the nature and
Importance of the office is such that
the selection of Judge should be with
drawn as much as possible from the
heated ard aggressive conflict of a
political campaign. A Court is a judi
cial tribunal and should not be consid-
cred Political office. Although it is
the invariable custom of political par
ties to place candidates for judicial
offices on their respective tick
cts, the selection of a candidate and
the election of a judge of any court of
record should be principally, if not
solely, made upon due consideration
of the fitness as to competency and

and grazing country for fifty miles in
any direction, the soil of which is the
rottening down the Rocky Mountains
through all the ages of the past.
Agriculture is an assured proposition
in this valley. The average rainfall
approximates two feet. In addition to
this. the valley in which Julesburg is
situated has magnificent irrigation
system with astorage reservoir cover
ing seventeen hundred acres with an
average depth of twenty one feet, and
also two flood water canals passing
through the valley. Thousands of cres
of wheat are now being harvested
a large part Of which will make
from thirty to fifty bushels per acre.
Thousands of acres of beets now COW
er the ground which are estimated at
from ten to thirty tons to the acre and
at the fixed price will bring 500. 90 per
acre gross. Thousands of acres of po-
tatoes are estimated at two hundred
and fifty bushels per acre, worth now
$l25.0Oper acre gross, Aside from
this is livestock, dairyand poultry in
dustries which are in keeping with any
country in the West. The products
tributory to the city of Julesbure
will reach nearly 81, 800, 10000
Really what this country needs is a
good farmer on every eighty acres. the
thorough culture Of which will make
the owner rich. ! undertake to say
there is no spot beyond the Missouri
River more fascinating in appearance
or richer in its productive resources
than surrounds the center of the Unit
ed states.

is nevertheless true.

and ability of the candidate. A Judge
should be unbiased and free from poll
teal influences in the administration
of law and justice, and especislIy should
he be free from influences or obliga-
tons resulting from heated political
campaign. Ths selsctssn Of a Judge
should be left to the sound Judgement
and discretion of the voters as to his
ability and qualifications.
The County Court is a court of record
having co-extensive jurisdiction with
the District Court, in neary
all cases involving amount or values
not exceeding Two Thousand Dollars,
the procedure is the same as that in
the District Court, and it is essential
that the judge in the County Court be
as we'll qualified to pass on pleadings,
evidence and the law as the Judge of
toe District Court.
Holding these views, l have decided
to submit my candidacy to the voters
of the County without making an ag-
ressive political campaign for the off

this state, and having practiced as a
licensed attorney in the courts of this
