JOY RIDERS TAKE
AUTOMOBILE
FROM LOCAL
OWNER
DRESSER MACHINE TAKEN AWAY
BY FORMER DRIVER AND
FOUND IN eoLoFlELo.

The man without an automobile
can smile when he hears Of the diff.
culties of maintaining one IN the fam.
lily So does W. o. Dresser, who has
not had his Buick long enough to get
well acquainted with it before his
troubles began. This machine was
stolen and recovered in one day.
Yesterday morning Mark Little, who
has been acting as chauffeur for Mr..
Dresser, called at the garage and
took the machine out. He had been
dismissed the-previous day, but he ex.
planned to Mrs. Dresser that he would
take the auto out to the Laundry
where there was lots of water, and
give it a thorough cleaning and bring
il back to the barn. Mrs Dresser
saw no reason to object, and Little
drove off in the buzz wagon The
tank contained eight gallons of gaso
line, but this was not enough for a
long trip, and Little bought ten gal
Ions more, which he thoughtfully
charged to the owner
At noon the machine had not beer
returned and Mr.. Dresser grew suspi
eious and phoned TO the laundry, only
TO find that Little had not been there
Chief of Police Evans took a hand il
the case and speedily located Little
Dave Graham and two women al
Goldfield Sheriff ingalls, placed tht
entire party under arrest and thi,
morning steps were taken to brinf
back the men, who will be charged
with grand larceny.

on the tariff except those about raw
wool We personally know that many
circulars relating TO manufacturers OF

world a concern reputed TO have
S2O,000,O00 Of water in its capital He
asked this man to give him evidence
to use against the wool growers OF
Nevada, and this man furnished him
part Of his speech.
Senator Pittman is more a resident
Of Alaska than Nevada. He is chair.
man Of the committee on territories.
In that capacity he is using every ef
fort to induce the federal government
to make an appropriation Of 100000
600 for the construction OF a railroad
to Alaska to develop certain proper
ties that are In the hands Of certain
individuals. He is willing to spend
S3OOOO,OOO Of government money to
develop Alaska, but not one cent to
develop Nevada.
He deliberately swore that neither
the sheep nor sugar industry Of Ne
yada amounted 70 anything No man
who knows Neyadas history would
have done this The sheep industry
Of Nevada represents more than Is
per cent Of the entire live stock in
dustry Of that state.
Senator Pittman is unwilling to
vote to give protection to the poverty
stricken sheep herder of Nevada who.
he says, receives only $35 per month.
but he is mighty anxious to vote to
give protection of from 35 to as per
cent to the men who own the wool
factories The trust viii get that, not
the men.
Pittman's whole testimony shows
an ill.concealed effort to discredlt the
men engaged in the sheep industry
Of Nevada He was even willing to
swear to things that he could not
prove in order to injure them. Now,
why was this? Pittman had been
elected under a moral obligation to
vote for a wool duty Of from 20 to
29 per cent He knew this, and he
knew that the people of Nevada knew
IT, All al once something induced
him to advocate free wool

The people Of Nevada should re

Senator Pittman was given under

thing about the sheep industry Of
Nevada can discern that several of
the senator's statements fall but lit

comment on some of his more i'm.
portant testimony relating to the
great trusts Of the east and he knew
that his people would find him out.
Therefore, in order to distract atten-
tion away from his own act pointed
the finger Of suspicion and seorn at
the wool growers of Nevada He won
his fight by this means, but it will
stay won only because the recall does
not extend to United States senator's.

His talk about sheep herders being

Of intelligent citizens All through
his testimony Pittman tried 10 leave
the impression that the gheepmen Of
Nevada had raised a corruption fund

this phase of the matter and our iudg-
ment is that the wool growers of Ne.

wool tariff campaign This includes
the cost of kilograms. printing and
lncidentals. Probably not more than
twenty kilograms were sent Senator
Pittman during the entire wool tariff
campaign. only one circular was
published by the Nevada Wool Grow
ers' association. Yet Pittman swore
he had been deluged with letters, tel

SOUTHS|DERS FOR
DOWNTOWN SITE
In Meeting Last Night Citizens
Advocate Main Street for
Union Station.

Protesting against the Hermitage
Golf Club site as tho location for the
proposed union passenger station, the
citizens of South Richmond passed
resolutions last night in a mass-meet-
ing in the courtroom of Hastings
Court. Part H., urging the placing OF
the station in lower Main Street The
text OF the resolutions is practically
tho same as that recently passed by the
South Richmond Democratic Club. but
the resolutions passed at the meeting
last night voiced the sentiment of ali
residents of the Southside. For the
convenience of people living in the
West End, a substation was advocated
on West Broad Street
ID. l.. Toney, Democratic nominee for
the Legislature. presided at the meet
ing. In spite of the sultry weather, a
large crowd filled the courtroom. After
the resolutions were drawn up by the
chairman. S. b. Dunford. they were
unanimously passed by all present
To the people of South Richmond
there is only one site for the union
station. and that is at Fifteenth and
Main Streets. With the completion Of
the new Mayo's Bridge and the widen
ing OF Hull Street, it is their belief
that most Of the traffic TO and from
South Richmond will traverse that
thoroughfare. while practically all ter
ritory east of Forest Hill and includ-
ing Forest Hill can most conveniently
reach the Main Street Station. Accord
ing to their views they would be
forced to travel by street car forty-fve
minutes to reach northbound trains at
the Hermitage site, while they would
only have TO cross the new Mayo's
Bridge to be at the downtown station.
The resolutions passed follow:
''Ife 1t resolved, That the joint com
mittec of the City Council on the union
passenger station he earnestly request
