WILL HAVE
COUNTY SEAT FIGHT

4 proposition is now on to move
the county seat from Phoebe to Cali
ente, which is creating much com
ment throughout Lincoln county. Pi-
oche has played in hard luck for sew
eral years past, while Caliente has
been very prosperous, Phoebe, and
the residents of the northern end of
the county, will put up a stubborn
fight to retain the county seat where
Mt is. If the proposition is success
full the residents of the northern por.
ton of the county will no doubt ask
to be annexed TO White Pine county
as Ely would be more convenient OF
access to them than Caliente.

Hate and the Man

Why must women bear most OF the
burden for slavery to dress when man
certainly has no more freedom than
she? This could be illustrated in a
number OF different ways, including
collars that choke and are too easily
soiled, but what Is really in our mind
is the Observation-Disclosures
stroying derby. 1t makes the head
look like n peanut. 1t is worn in the
spring long after the owner longs for
the straw hat, and In the autumn
when he wishes to continue with the
straw, and In the winter when he de
sires a comfortable. pleasant, soft.
warm covering. Perhaps the cap Is
gaining little In popularity, and also
the soft felt, but the progress is not
enough to be noticeable. For what
progress there Is we can probably
thank the automobile. We certainly
cannot thank the intelligence OF men,.
