THE DEMOCRATIC DELEGATES
Win Esteem of Wilson Forces
By Their Consistency At
Baltimore.
Especial to Standard)

topeclal TO Standard)
Baltimore, Md, July 8. 1912.
Churchill County Standard,
Fellon, Nevada:
The Nevada Delegation won the re-
spect of not only the Clark managers
but Mr.. Wilson's supporters as well,
by their answering obedience to the
instruction of the voters of Nevada in
voting for Champ Clark as long as he
was a candidate even after defeat was
certain. The failure of some of Mr..
Clark's followers to support Mr.. Bryan
for chairman undoubtedly weakened
his strength as a progressive candidate,
while the unanimous support of Mr..
Bryan by the Wilson followers in all
bis contests made Mr. Wilson the most
popular and the strongest candidate
that could possibly have been nominat-
ed. Whilst our delegation followed
strictly the instructions and voted every
ballot for Champ Clark, it nevertheless
supported Mr.. Bryan for chairman and
in every contest he made.
Beyond controversy Mr.. Wilson typi-
iies the progressive ideals Of to-day and
he will eliminate Mr.. Roosevelt.
The convention was the most re-
markable in history by reason Of the
enthusiasm displayed for various can.
didates, the fearless and intense fight
conducted in their behalf and the COM
plete harmony and individual and uni
versal rejoicing that marked its closing
hours.
Even the most ardent of Mr.. Clark 8
supporters admit now that conditions
have demonstrated that Mr.. Wilson is
the most popular candidate who could
have been selected. and that he will re-
eeive the hearty and undivided support
of the whole party and of every true
progressive.-KEY PITTMAN, Chairman
Nevada Delegation.

SUBMITS A TAX Statement
Nevada Hills Claims That 1t
Has Property Taxable Only
For $6,5OO.

The statement of taxable property,
belonging to the corporation has been
received by Assessor J. w. Sitton from
the Nevada Hills mining company. The
statement shows the company to be
possessed of personal property of
value of Sc, 500, that is subject to asses
ment. No mention is made of the Fair
view mill, which cost approximately the
same as the Nevada Sugar Company
plant, and it is not known whether the
omission Is erroneous, or is based on an
exemption provided for in the Revised
statutes of the state, which state that
all patented and unpatented mining
claims upon which $4,000 has been
expended during the year shall be as
sessed only upon the output of the
same.
The So, 500 statement is based upon
two automobiles of taxable value of
81, 500; all other property, $4,000.

CITY OF FALLON AFFAIRS
Are Being Placed In Shape By
The Council. City Clerk
Is Promoted.

The city council met Monday evening
and accepted the sewerage system in
its entirety and the clerk was ordered
to give his warrant to the Western
Engineering & Water Supply Co., the
contractors. in the sum of $2,259. SO,
making a total of s13,259.53 out
of $4,000 sewer extension bonds,
expended on the extension of the sew
erage system. OF the extension fund,
$l697.57 was used to complete the I'm
hoff tank and the line leading to it;
$186282 was transferred to the pump

ing which will be used to build bridge
across the canal near the pumping
plant and defray certain incidental ex-
penses in connection with the opera
tion of the pumping station.
City Clerk w. H. Reavis was en-
ployed by the council to care for the
water and electrical funds and do the
necessary bookkeeping and collecting
In addition to his regular duties as
clerk His salary was fixed at ss5 per
month for the added services.
The matter of fixing the rates that
will govern the sale of municipal water
is being considered and an ordinance
definitely fixing these rates will be
passed at the next regular meeting and
will govern thereafter. In the mean
time. no charge will be made for city
water until that time. At Monday
evening 8 meeting the contractors were
instructed to thoroughly flush and
cleanse the mains of the system. This

ready, and the city's water supply is
said by those who have used it to be
clear and free from the Objectionable
qualities that usually go with desert
water.

REGISTRATION IS
PROCEEDING SLOWLY.

Registration Is proceeding slowly
over the county. There is some mis-.
apprehension existing in the minds of
voters generally regarding what is ne
cessary. The Indications are that the
largest roll in the history Of the county
will be on hand when the books are
closed on the 18th of August.
Voters are reminded that they must
call on the justice Of the peace Of their
representative precincts and get their
John Henries down and the registration
for the primaries does not hold good
for the general election. The registra.
tion books for the general election will
be opened August 1st and close on Oc-
tober goth.

HOW TO INCREASE
YOUR TOMATO YIELD.

OREGON AGRICULTURAL COL
LEGE, Corvallis, Ore, June 29-"Con-
siderable trouble has been experienced
in the past in the ripening of the to-
mato crop" said Prof. A. G. B. Bou-
quet, vegetable garden expert of the
o. A. c., recently. ''0ne of the great
est drawbacks has been in the Drop
ping of blossoms in the early summer,
with resultant meager setting of
fruit. Instead, therefore, of having
ripe tomatoes the last of July and mid
die of August, many vines do not be-
gin to set fruit early enough to permit
ripening before the fall. AS a result
there is much loss either by the crack
ing of the fruit by rains, or frosted
vines.
''The makeup of the tomato flower
is such as to make it necessary often
to pollenate the blossoms artificially.
The trouble of poor setting of fruits is
nothing more or less than nonfertiliza-
tion of the female organs of the flower.
If this organ IS not properly pollenated,
the flower will fall, breaking off at the
first joint below.
Tomato blossoms remain open sever
al days, and pollenation can be aided
greatly by the gardener. On bright,
sunny days the pollen in the flower will
scatter readily if the vine is shaken or
tapped with stick or lead pencil. "A
high temperature, such as that between
ten and two o'clock will cause the pol
len to scatter much more freely
and be caught by the pistil, the female
organ. l would suggest that some
plants be kept as checks and not shak-
en-, to compare results.
"If pruning or stalking of the vines is
desired the plants should be put closer
together in the row, 2H or 3 feet.
They should be pruned to a single stem
by removing all the laterals at the
axils of the leaves. They should be
supported with stake and cut off
when six feet high. Otherwise they
should be planted four feet apart in
the garden or field"

WILL STEAL BRYAN'S THUNDER
Roosevelt's Campaign Will Be
on Issues Formulated by The
Great Commoner.

Let's watch now and see how much
of Bryan's platform Roosevelt will
steal. The third-termer has taken
every progressive principle he ever ad-
vocated from the great truths laid
down years ago by the Nebraskan. He
became popular only when he began to
favor some of the reforms which Bry-
an had outlined long before his time,
but he was unable to carry them into
effect because his vanity and intense
selfishness kept him posing and bluff
ing instead of acting with the discre-
tion and judgment with which the
Commoner had intended his ideas
should be put into practice.
Roosevelt says he stands for pro-
gressiveness. We cannot conceive of
a declaration with which we could 60
before the people more ringingly pro-
gressive than that which Bryan pre-
pared for adoption by the Baltimore
convention. He may propose his
New Naturalization" his Charter
of Democracy" or some Of his other
nostrums, but the tenets that embody
real political progressiveness are to be
found In the expression Of principles
which the distinguished NebrasksH
drafted for the Democratic convention
and for which he began fighting ~ 4
pioneer sixteen years ago.
Roosevelt has said that the Slogan Of
his campaign will be Thou Shalt Not
Steal" 1t will be interesting to note
his efforts at platform-making and see
If he can turn the trick without whole
sale theft. Union.

AdrIanopIe Doomed.

Vienna, Nov. 2.-The fall of Adrian ople may be expected next week, ac- cordtng to the correspondent of the iReichspost. telegraphing from Mus tapha last night. The capituation ot tae city, he says, might be forced sooner by a ruthless bombamrdment by the Bulgarians, but King Ferdinand has ordered that the city be spared.
 The siege has been complete for many days past and the fall of Demot- iea, to which place the Turks had taken 30,000 men in their retreat aft CT the battle of Kirk-Killesseh, with the defeat of the main Turkish army at I4uleburgas, removes all fear of an interruption of the Bulgarian siege operations by the Turks.
 The pursuit of the Turkish army and the attempt to outflank on it's line of retreat to Constantinople have al, ready progressed so far that the com, plete encircling of Nazim Pasha's $ troops may occur at any moment.
