v A PRESS COMMENT
1t Is Time To Call a Halt

Goldfield Tribune: Most of the
newspapers of the State are clamor-
ing for a housekeeping at Carson.
In the various State Offices it is as
serted that nepotism is rampant and
that the public treasury is being
MIXED to a fare-you-well for the
benefit of a few persons who lord it
over their peers. Apparently this is
no idle dream, because facts and
figures have been brought forth to
prove that such a condition of af-
fairs exists.
There is one remedy for the evil
that ~confronts the people of the
State, and that is to elect reliable,
responsible and honest property own
ers to the next Legislature, and not
carpet-baggers from Colorado and
other nearby commonwealths; not
men who, as soon as the ghost ceases
to walk, will gather up their celluloid
collars and beat it for California
where they will seek to put it over"
by not allowing the public to forget
they are Assemblyman or Senator
So and So.
The plain fact of the business is
that the people of Nevada are grow
ing tired of the high tax rates foisted
upon them by extravagant and ir-
responsible officials. Assuredly it is
time to call a halt. There is such a
thing as looking a gift horse in the
face too often.

An accident occurred last week in
the Nevada Hills mine at Fairview
which cost the life of Frank Wien
ecke, a single man aged 36years. He
was an experienced miner but had
only been employed in the Fairview
camp four days. He was supposed
to keep the ore shoot clear, but some
how he let it clog, and instead of go
ing around to the opposite side. he
stepped on the ore which began to
move and he was carried down the
shoot, his head being badly bruised,
resulting in death.

THE MEXICAN SITUATION

Goodwin's Weekly: Huerta has e
signed and left his capital. There
was some bluff and some bitterness
in his resignation. and some things
that would awaken sympathy had
not he begun his career as president
by usurpation and violence and an
appeal to force. 1t is not to be re-
GREETED that the forces turned against
and crushed him. While he had
much original ability as a soldier. he
is utterly lacking in craftsmanship
and his acts during the past year con-
firm the statements so frequently
made that he is the victim of q vice
that prevents any concentration of
thought or purpose.
But the world will look anxiously
to e what will happen now. Car
bajal has been appointed temporary
president. but there are three or
four banditti ch~ieftains, each Of
whom will claim that the victory was
made possible because of his work.
Will the exhaustion Of the Repub-
lie and the influence of the Niagara
commission be enough to cause these
men to agree to peace and accept
for the interim the man whom the
commission will name for temporary
president? And if they do will they
keep the agreement, or will the so
called peace be but an armed truce
to be broken at the first opportunity
by a new rebellion? Evidently there
will have to be more ''watchful watt
ing"
To pick up the tangled threads Of
government in Mexico and weave
them into q harmonious fabric, that
like the product Of the Indian loom,
will endure and grow more valuable
as the years ebb and flow, seems to
be an almost hopeless task.
But let us hope.

]. A. Falconer is a candidate for
United States senator on the progress
sive ticket. He is serving the people
of this state in the house at present,
detained by his devotion to duty, he
has neglected his interest, leaving his
candidacy entirely to his friends. He
was elected two years ago by the larg-
est vote given to any man on the ticket.
His determination to neglect his per-
sonal interest and devote his entire
time to public duty should commend
him to the voters. We do not think
he will lose votes because he could
not come home and make speeches in
the primary campaign.

BaCkfiring The War

When hunger, want of the necessa-
ries of life, sickness and the fierce pinch
of winter, begins to grip the stay-at-
homes in the nations now at war in
Europe, then will the bloodthirSty,
power lustful kings and emperors trem-
BILE. Then will their hair stand on end
like quilts on the fretful porcupine.
The loss of crown has more terrors for
crowned rulers OF the people than the
fear Of hell for a condemned murderer.
No, this war will not continue for
long. 1t is too terrible. The very
smell of the blood of German, French
man, Englishman, Belgian, Russian
and Austrian is in the air of Europe.
The means of the manned, the shrek
of the widow, the wall of the orphan
will pierce the ear Of the God Of mercy
and right. In the shape OF great
wave Of public opinion he will put a
quick end to the human slaughter.
Kings and emperors who oppose peace
will be brushed aside as so much trash
in the way of all that is best for man.

In>Europe they have the divinity Of
kings and emperors. The last trace
OF this divinity business in this land Of
the free is foolish belief in the divin-
ity of courts. Judges are just as
human, and consequently fallible, as
kings. Some are good and some are
bad. Electing a human man Judge
does not change his nature. II he is a
good Judge he was a good man before

a fly, a flea and fitch OF bacon.
A Derbyshire man says the signif-
canoe of that emblem Is this:
A fly will drink with anybody. So

A flea will bite anybody. So will

A fitch of bacon isn't worth a con-

An Idea for the Council and Property
Owners to Ponder

The need of some kind Of organized
fre-fghting force in the city has been
admitted for some time. The unfor-
tunate delay in getting water on last
Wednesday mornings fre-the I'M
necessary destruction of property in
breaking thru Mr.. Carlquist's jewelry
store in order to get at the fire when
there was a shorter and much quicker
route by way of the alley-the vexatious
delay and annoyance caused by having
the water shut off by some excited, but
probably well-intentioned volunteer
worker, when the fire had all but been
put out, we solemnly believe, helped
to chrystalize sentiment in favor Of a
fire-fghting organization composed Of
men who, with little practice, would
know what to do at fre-would know
how best to subdue the flames, and
know, too, that it is not necessary to
break windows and doors and destroy
merchandise with a useless flood Of
water where there is no fire. This
needless destruction OF property was
seen Wednesday night when the Carl
ouist store was needlessly broken into,
and when several thousand dollars worth
of goods was destroyed at the Hub
clothing store fire month ago with
water, where there was not spark Of
fire.
No where do men so completely lose
their head and act irrationally as at a
fire. We once saw man who on
every ordinary occasion, acted with in
telligence and common sense, at fire,
throw china clock and a looking glass
out. of three-story window and tender
" carry an from poker down the stair
way.
We submit that FIVE men, acting to-
gether, with deliberate purpose, know
ing what to do and how to do it, would
give US better fire protection and save
more property by directing water where
it would do good and keeping water
away where it would do harm, than a
mob of hundred needless and head
less men.
Let the city employ five tried and
suitable men, known for cool-headed-
ness, pay them $3.50 or $500 for
every fire they attend, let them be
clothed with the authority Of a peace
officer, wear Distinguishing red caps or
helmets so that the public would know
and respect their authority. Let one
remain at the hydrant to open and
close the same at the proper time, and
the other four take charge Of the noz-
zle. In no relation Of life is time so
important a factor as at fire. AT
certain point OF time fire may easily
