We call attention to the significant
fact that the Reno rate case, to |
abate the backhaul charge and secure
just transportation rates in Nevada, |
was brought under section of the |
interstate comerce act which, when
up for passage in the senate, was OPP |
posed by Senator Newlands' voice
and vote, but became a law during
a Republican administration in spite
Of his opposition.
To declare that Senator Newlands
as statesman of International cali
Der and range we submit that Nevada
can well forego such amplitude of
range of some practical attention to
the concrete interests and needs of
this particular commonwealth. We
believe that the representation of
other states are fully competent to
look after their general and special
4 interests without our senatorial cot
erie to assist them while Nevada s
needs are forgotten We call public
attention to the fact that Senator
Newlands for the past four years has
paid a political representative in Ne

contravention of the spirit of good
