tiOn Of the fertility of our soil
and what the application of water
properly applied will accomplish
Mr.. Dressler was complimented
on his achievement
The Government men were
made acquainted with the work
carried on by the Alpine Land 4
Reservoir Company. With the
aid Of maps they We're shown the
location of the reservoirs in AL
pine County where the Carson
River finds its source
These reservoirs have a storage
capacity of 31OO acre feet and
this year they were the means OF
saving the second crop from burn
ing up. The gentlemen were
shown the many thousands OF
acres of uncuItivated land in this
valley that but awaits water to
make it productive. Far back
upon the sloping hills to our east
is the best of soil all Of which
could be irrigated from the Car
son river if the Government
would conserve the food waters
at the head of the Carson River.
There are to be found some
natural reservoir sites in that see
tiOn with an estimated storage
capacitv of 200. 900 acre feet OF
water. which would reclaim all OF
the arid land in Carson Valley as
well much of the land below u.s.

pounding rock. Springmeyel
and Poujade believed that pro
gression meant better utility Of
convict labor and insisted that
they be employed on roads which
the state is constructing and it
did not interfere with free labor.
Springmeyer won his point on this
question and the platform so de-
clares.
The woman suffrage plank was
discussed at considerable length.
Some were of the opinion that
woman suffrage was all right, but
that the matter be deferred until
the women by majority showed
that they desired the franchise.
Mccarthy wanted them given the
vote, as he explained that it would
then make them mans equal and
that many of the widows who
now sidestep taxes would have to
come to the center. Joe finally
passed it over to Springmeyer
and the franchise plank was nail
ed down to the flooring.
The platform is pointed and
reads like business. IF it could
be carried out it would be pro-
gressive in the extreme. It will
be adopted at the meeting on the
9th when candidates will be
named.
The next meeting is billed for
AupuSt Odd.

FOR SENATOR
New Jersey Man sends
Telegram

Clay Tallman. Chairman Of the
Democratic State Central Com
mittee has received a telegram
from Congressman Hughes of
New Jersey, close friend OF
Governor Wilson and one of the
active managers of the Wilson
campaign The telegram is as
follows:
WASHINGTON. Aug. Is. 1912.
Hon. Clay TaIlman. Tonopah, Me-
vada:
congratulate the people of
the State of Nevada on the nomi-
nation of Key Pittman for United
States Senator on the Democratic
ticket. The selection of Mr..
Pittman will rebound to the cred
it of your state.
(Signed) WAI. HUGHES.
The fact that Nevada is. figured
in the Democratic column this fall
on the National ticket. is already
being felt. BY the state return
ing a Senator Of the Democratic
principles and party means that
the Nevada delegation at Wash
ington will be in accord with the
National control. There seems
little doubt in any direction but
that Wilson will be the next Pres
ident and Nevada. by sending a
Senator and Congressman Of same
creed is simply smoothing out the
paths for her own workers.
The endorsement Of such men
as Congressman Hughes is but
one Of many that is being recriv-
ed at the headquarters Every
day ii looks more Democratic to
the people and Nevada will be in
that column this fall.
ANOTHER ENDORSEMENT
During the day another en-
dorse ment of Key Pittman for
United States Senator was receiv
eG by Clay Tallman. which was
made public to the Democratic
press. 1t reads:
WASHINGTON, August III
Everybody here is hoping for the
election Of Key Pittman. Demo-
cratic nominee for a plance in the
Serate. as they in North Carolina
Nevada has a chance to make
herself proud. "
{ Sioned) John Sharp Williams
From all appearances the peo
pie outside the State Of Nevada |
are interested in the election Of
Key Pittman and indications are
good things to 90 hv. Pittman
will be Nevada s next Senator.

Weather Conditions

Meager reports received by the local office of the weather bureua Tuesday night indicated that the pressure contin- ued unusually low in the northwestern part of the country and high in the south. The crest of the high Is now over Alabama, and the temperature has fal- len over the South Atlantic states in advance of it. Cold weather is general over the country and sleet and ice have played havoc with the telegraph lines to the northeastward. Owing to this fact complete reports were not received at the weather bureau office Tuesday night.
 Precipitation was general on the At lantic coast during the past 24 hours falling as lain, sleet or snow.

Richard T, Crane of Chicago, who died oa Monday in the eightieth year of his age, was one of the notable men of the nanufacuuting world. As head of the Crane company, which has an important branch in Birmingham. MT. Crane had built up most extensive business in hardware, mining and milling machinery and plumbers supplies
 A few years ago the Crane company purchased the Mlner X Kettig company of this city and retained ". H. kettig, one of Birmingham's most successful and popular citizens, as local manager. Mil her S Kettig had a very large business, and the Grape company has developed it still further, making the local branch one of the most important concerns in the south. It gives employment to a large mechanical and clerical force.
 Mir. Crane was not only a pioneer man ufacturer, but he was among the first, if not the first, to put into practice the co-operative system. Every employe who has been in the service of the Crane company as long as a year receives as a bonus at Christmas time an amount equal to 10 per cent of his regular pay. MT Crane had other generous ideas which he carried into effect.
 He was known as a man of great force of character and a kind and helpful friend
