Carson City daily appeal. [volume] (Carson City, Nev.) 1907-1930, 1913-11-03
MONDAY
ANNOUNCEMENT

1t is perhaps only meet and proper in taking over the Carson
City Daily Appeal that the new lessees announce to the public
and patrons their policy and purpose in the conduct of the paper.
First, the Appeal will be Democratic in every sen of the
word, taking it's inspiration from the Baltimore platform of 1912
and formulating it's policy to accord with the best that comes
from the acknowledged leaders of the party.
1t intends to play the game fair, crediting where credit is
due and condemning and criticiing where such is deserved. Be
fore the primary election comes on it may or may not support
certain candidates, but when the votes r counted and the win
ming primary nominees r announced the Appeal can be relied
upon to go right down the line for the whole ticket and give the
candidates the best that is to be had.
At all times the paper will boost Nevada and the various sec
tons of the State, paying particular attention to Carson City,
Ormsby County, and the adjacent territory. 1t believes that in
mineral, agriculture, grazing, stock raising and other pursuits the
Sagebrush State is one of the richest in the Union, bue because If
unfortunate circumstance that has marked its career in the past
few years it has been placed in the retarded list and failed to e
ceive credit for its physical worth. Lack of concentrated move
ment on the part Of the press and people is somewhat responsible"
for this rctrogrcssion, but it shall be the earnest endeavor OF
the Appeal to try and bring all segregated elements together, 20
that everybody and everything can pull in one direction, with
the purpose of again placing Nevada in the lmeight and honestly
advertising its wares.
Many improvements are intended for the Appeal by it's new
lessees, but these changes will take a little time. 1t was Thought
that with the first appearance of the paper under its new manage
ment a telegraphic service would be presented, but by reason of
necessary formahties in closing the contract with the press asso-
citation it has been delayed for a day or two.
In conclusion, the new management desires to say that the?
have come to Carson to stay, that in new matter and Topographic
cal appearance the Appeal will improve with every issue, and that
it is the ambition Of the lessees to make the paper one of the lead
ers of the State.
With this brief statement II cause is submitted.
In many countries of Europe it is regarded Is an honor for
a married school teacher to bear children. In Germany during
the period of confinement and convalescence the teacher is given
a vacation on full pay. In France a vacation is allowed and the
patient put on hall pay Not So however, IN New York, a has
been shown by a ease now occupying public attention. The woman
in the case taught in the public schools for eighteen years, and
had she served two more years would have been entitled to retire
ment on a pension. But a few months ago she w a guilty Of
giving birth to a child forced to retire for a limited time till she
was nor in condition to resume her duties, she was told that she
need not return and moreover had broken the rules and regula-
lions that gave her the right of pension. SO, as far as it has gone,
she is down and out, unless some future board of education takes
up the case and restores to her her rights. And this in America,
which takes unto itself the glory OF leading in civilization, charity
and iair-mindedness. Here is a case where the federation Of
women's clubs OF Nevada may make a vehement and conscientious
protest. 1t might do some good.
Judging by the personnel of the officers elected by the Nevada
Bar Association at it's concluding moments at Reno last week,
the railroads and corporations captured the big plums. Judge
Brown OF Reno, Southern Pacific attorney, was elected president
Charles j. Henderson, of Elko, representing the Western Pacific,
and G. Il. Chandler of Ely, attorney for the Guggenheim inter
ests, were made vicc-presidents. But regardless of this fact the
session was one eli exceeding interest and provocative of many
things that i'll inure to the benefit of the bar. August Tilden of
Goldfield, prospective candidate for United States Senator on the
Republican ticket, read a highly instructive and entertaining
paper on THE Constitution . and was the recipient of many
compliments.
