To an observer the general

GREYS DEFENCE

If it will be any satisfaction 10
anyone to know we might state
for the benefit of those who are
highly excited over the work of the
Elko County Development League
that it was the work of the men,
bers of the League that secured
the passage of the bill appropriat-
ing six thousand dollars for road
work in this county-vetoed by
Governor Oddie. 1t was also the
work of members of the League
that secured the Hone for Boys for
Elko with the forty thousand dollar
appropriation Manv miles of road
work being done in Elko county
this year are the direct result Of
agitation, by members Of the Lea
que. And close inspection of the
records will show that large pro-
portion of the membership fees
paid in have been paid by members
outside of the town of ElkO, whilT
all the howIing about the work and
money expended comes from people
who have never paid dollar. We
have no patience with men who di-
rectly or indirectly knock or try to
discourage an organization like the
Elko County Development League.
Every county IN Nevada needs
such an organization. If pc. sons
try to use such an organization for
their private ends then let those
who are really friends join, pay
their dues and get the right to at
tend meetings and have a say in
the election Of office and see that
it is made Of what its name implies
and what its founders intended it
should lie.
~Hlko has that five thousand dol
lars in the bank ready for the state
to use in the construction Of the
Home for Boys. Now let the Gov
ernor find new excuse for his
deliberate attempts to keep the
home from being built.--Common-
wealth.

Mr. Hesson and stay with him to

come . candidate. However, we
think that when a "cub reporter"
who is in the employ ola ,Republi-
can paper attempts;to manufacture

ty thathe nss an AK to grind and is
making a monkey Of himself and
doing positive injury to the men
he processes to be trying to help.
He certainly belongs to. the Gazette
school Of politicians and is only
Fplaying 'au old game by trying to
kill off the strong men who might
be induced to enter the arena at
the proper time and in Y legitimate
manner. Such tactics are still in
vogue, and no attention will be
paid to them by Democratic Vot-
ers Of Nevada. So FAR as timber
for Governor is concerned this
county can produce at the proper
time a scor or more; men WhoIare
eminently fitted to grace the gov
terhor's chair. Among the number
may be mentioned our townsman
W G Greathnuse. present Recorder
and Aditor, than whom no better
man can be found in the entire
state. VIC Greathouse is man
Of the people. fearless, clean, hon.
est, faithful and capable beyond
any question Of doubt. Both he
and Mr. Hesson stand shoulder to
shoulder in all that goes to make
for good citizenship and civic
Righteousness. Either one Of them
will make a record Of which all Me-
vada may be proud If they ever
are fortunate enough to secure the
coveted position. It might be good
politics to pominaters candidats

MOVE
FORESTER
TO ELKO

3 Elko is the county seat of the
county and is visited by the users
of the reserve frequently during
each year and while there wish to
attend to their business in connec-
tion with the reserve, thereby
avoiding the necessity of making a
special trip to Gold Greek for that
purpose.
With few exceptions, all users
who go to Gold Creek 90 there for
the express purpose of seeing the
supervisor.
5 Gold Creek is rs miles from
Elko and has only a tri-weekly mail
service.
& The great majority of the u.s.
ers are closer, by road to Elko
than to Gold Creek.
Z All sheep wintered in the
Southern part of the state cross the
Southern Pacific rail lroad at or near
Elko about April 1st Of each year
and at that time the owner coulc
arrange to see the supervisor if he
was at ElkO without making a spec.

Another Federal office is likely

A petition is III circulation to have

of Forest Supervisor from Gold

The season opened July with the

weather conditions. Both programs
were splendid executions and were
heard by enthusiastic audiences.
Congressman R. P. Hobson spoke
Sunday afternoon to the largest gath

dress dealt with great national pres
ent day problems and held the atten-
ton of his audience during an unusu-
ally long lecture period.
The Sarah Ruth Bates Concert
Company gave the entire program
Sunday evening. While Miss Bates
support is not strong in any particu-
lar, her own work as a reader is ex-
ceptionally fine. Miss Bates was en-
tirely new to the Redwood Falls audi

excess freight and passenger fares
paid since the Sanborn decision of
1911, although they propose to abide
by the freight and passenger rate as
soon as the other companies fix the
date, although the Rock Island came
in June 25th.
1t is probable that a suit will be
commenced to compel the Great
Western to return the excess, in case
it does not acquiesce along with the
other companies, and then the comp
any will have to show that the rates
fixed in 1911 did not allow it the per
cent. of profit to which it was entitled
to. The Great Western passed out of
receivers hands into the control of
the Morgan interests about that time,
and it has been doing a good freight
and passenger business in Minnesota
ever since. The milk transportation
into St. Paul and Minneapolis from
the southern part of the state has
been, and still is, something immense.

Runaway Accident
Sunday Injuries Two
Mrs. Andrew Cook Badly Cut on Face,
Genevive Cook Sustains Broken
Arm

Mrs. Andrew Cook and little daugh-
ter Genevive are both suffering from
injuries received in runaway acct
dent Sunday afternoon.
Mrs. Cook and children were driv-
ing with Mr.. and Mrs. John Klaus
when the accident occurred. While
driving down a long hill near North
Redwood, the team became unman-
ageable and escaped the control of
the driver.
While they were running at terri
fc speed, one of the back wheels of
the buggy came off, and when the
railroad track was reached the rig
was upset, and the horses became de-
tached. They continued running until
becoming entangled in a nearby wire
fence from which they sustained seri-
Gus cuts.
The only members of the party In
iured were little Genevive whose arm
was broken near the shoulder, ano
Mrs. Cook who was badly cut on the
nose. 1t was found necessary to take
two stitches in the wound. How the
other members escaped is past com
prehension.
Mrs. Cook and children are visiting
at the home of her parents, Mr.. ane
Mrs. John Lauterbach, and will b
here for several days.
