TALKING FILMS
At THE GRAND

The kinetophone. or Edison Talk
ing Pictures, will be seen here for the
first time at the Grand tonight. Jus
as wonderful as was his invention OF
the original moving pictures is the
latest discovery OF the great wizard
Edison. 1t is predicted for the Kline
tophone that real flesh and blood ac-
tors on many stages in the various
theatres throughout the country will
soon be thing of the past. TO judge
from the little gasps of astorishne:it
and the chorus of Isn't that some
Wonderful' that one hears on all sides
wherever the pictures are exhibited
the Kinetophone may be called an
immense success.

Newland's Tour Educational

Senator Newlands is at present
spending a few weeks talking with
different people i'll the various walks
Of life throughout the State. The
Senior Senator is a great believer in
human nature, and realizes the im-
portance OF rubbing elbows with his
constituents--of seeing and talking
to men at close range. The Hon.
William {. Rcdheld member .uf
President Wilson's cabinet. tells OF
seeing over the desk OF a prosperous
business man in Rotterdam. this
motto, Every man | meet Is my
master in some point. and in this
learn OF him." No man realizes
more than does Senator Newlands
the great benefit to be derived from
coming into contact with ones fel-
low man, and no man Is more r.
spectful of the opinion of Others than
Francis G.. Newlands.
Since arriving III this state on his
present visit the stock of MIR. New
lands for reelection has rapidly been
going up, and it might throw the
stand-pat machine into wild state
of confusion ii they should learn of
the large number OF prominent Re
publicans who have recently signi-
fed their intention of supporting Mr..
Ncwlands in this campaign for re-
election to the United States Senate
OF course there is some good mater
ial in the Republican ranks, but they
are few and far betwecn-nonc. how
ever, OF Mr.. Newlands' calibre. In
the coming campaign for United
States Senator in Nevada the Re
publican party is gong to experience
considerable difficulty in securing :.
good man to make the run against
Ncwlands. Some Republican may run
for the advertising he will get 0'''
of it. but as for running on the Re
pulican or any other ticket with any
hope OF defeating Newlands that :
another proposition. Ii any sane pol
itician is seriously considering being
candidate against Senator Newlands
either in the primaries or afterward,
he had better stay at home and save
his money Mr. Newlands is one of
the greatest statesmen who ever sat
in the upper house of Congress. not
a mere politician but a constructive
statesman in every sense of the term,
and any man who goes over the State
of Nevada attempting to tell the peo-
pie of the State why Mr.. Newlanls
should not be sent back to Washing
ton to represent the great State II
Nevada is going to have one difficult
task on his hands.
