INSURRECTOS WANT
GARCIA SADDLES

There is one man in El;o who is
profting by the state OF war nov 60
ing on in Mexico. The man is question
is G. s. Garcia, q native OF that coun-
try, who is known all over the west
as the maker OF the famous Garcia
saddles. Mr.. Garcia is just now en-
gagged in a deal with the leaders Of
the Mexican revolutionary party TO
furnish them with 500 of Elko-made
saddles for their cavalry. 1t is highly
probable that the deal viii go through
and If it does it will be a big adver-
tisement for Elko and also 4 big in
in business for Nj. Garcia. Mr..
Garcia's products are rapidly being
recognized all over the western hemi-
sphere and in part of the eastern as
the best thing obtainable in saddles
and harness. He now numbers his
customers by the hundreds and num-
bers of orders come from people MANY
thousands of miles away.

ITS PRICE

The Reno Journal has announced
that ii will not support Senator New
lands in the present campaign, Civ
ing as its reason that the Democratic
state committee refused to pay
$4,000 for publicity" The natural
presumption, from the Journals own
statement OF the case is that
$4,000 was the price il demanded
for its support OF Senator Newlands
and the state ticket.
Doubtless the state committee con
sidered the Journals price too high,
which conclusion was certainly cor
rect. The committee evidently be
lieved 1t better not TO have the Jour
na!s support than it would be to
support the Journal.
Ostensibly a Democratic paper, the
Journals support of the Democratic
state candidates is always an uncer-
tain proposition, but this is the first
campaign in which the public has
been let in on the details OF the pa
pers negotiations and price. 4 reas-
enable conclusion is that this year
the Journal raised its sights too high.

there was nominal submission to the

A CITIZEN OF THE WORLD

In politics, as in life generally
things which loom large momentarily
have a way of shrinking out OF pos
terity's sight, while events which at
the moment nearly escaped remark
grow in significance. II Is impossible
as yet to know just what Woodrow
Wilson's place In history will be, de-
pendent as II Is on many and varied
conclusions of unfinished business.
That he has grown in esteem in very
recent months. II would be idle to de-
ny. His great grief has made men
know him for what they have some
times forgotten him TO be. Not pro-
lessor only, not statesman and parts.
an alone, but a father-a man with
mans responsibilities and trials. And
now the President issues two impor-
tan documents-an invitation TO all
persons to pray on a certain day that
peace may be restored Europe: an
announcement to his party managers
that he will take no Swing around
the circle" to mend the fences of his
party's representatives in Congress.
This decision Is not a surprise to any
one who knows Wilson and his ways.
Whatever his defects and angles and
asperities-and time will soften them
and we shall grow mor conscious of
his qualities-Mr. Wilson is an Am
erican patriot and a citizen. not OF
his own parish only. but OF the world.
His presidency, opening with the en-
actment of promised legislation. has
been troubled by private bereavement
By Mexican explosions, by partisan
ebullitions. and by the greatest war
in present memory. Whatever mis-
takes we have charged the President
with, We have never charged him with
losing his head. His attitude toward
events In Mexico and in Europe alike
has been distinguished by a large
mindedness that we frankly envy
him. We congratulate this country
OF ours that he has been our White
House ruler in those months OF storm.
