TO THE PEOPLE oFITHE STATE
OF NEVADA; OUR FELLOW CIT,
lZENS OF THIS GREAT NATION.

Again 1t becomes the duty of the
good people o your state to select a
representative to the Senate of the
United States.
At no time since the advent of your
state, or any other state, into this
Union nor since Washington was
President Of the United States has
this country been confronted with
problems SO vital to the welfare of
our citizens in the continuance of
their safety. peace and prosperity,
than confronts this nation al this mo-
ment.
Fortunate, indeed, is our country,
In having men who have proven, by
their craftsmanship, that a continual
ton OF u relationship with the ma
tons Of the world shall be peaceful.
Nevada has been fortunate in hay
ing for Its representative in the upper
house of Congress. Senator Francis
G.. Newlands and the United States
has been equally fortunate in having
his ability and his broad statesman
ship to aid in the deliberations of our
most important legislative confer
ences. Practically all OF the great
enacted into law, in this
country for many years past, Senator
Francis @. Newlands, name 20
as aiding In their passoge.
No greater measure was ever Of
fered. and there is none of which In
OF o Importance to our country,
In securing Its internal development,
than the river regulation bill that bear
his name. This measure is understood
and has been approved by millions
OF our people and is being earnestly
studied by millions more; is being ad-
vocated by thousands Of organiza-
lions; has been approved by many
state legislatures and it's principles
are being supported by the foremost
leaders OF our country. The principles
OF this great measure will surely be
considered by the present administra-
ton at the next session Of Congress.
Practically, every state in the Union
will be benefited by the application
OF the Newlands bill should It be en-
acted into law. The State of Nevada
is justly and adequately protected in
conjunction with the other states OF
the Pacific coast. Under that bill the
rivers and streams in the State OF
Nevada, which are part of, and tribu-
tary to the Snake. Columbia and Colo.
RADIO rivers. will receive their just
treatment along with ell other rivers
OF California, Oregon, Washington,
Colorado and Arizona. Likewise the

LETTERS TO EDITOR


CAN BE MADE MILITIAMEN
Editor Day Book:-Your article
the other day, reporting the immun-
ity bath given by ocurt-martial Off
Gals to the militiamen of Colorado
for their recent efforts in that eco
nomic war, reminds me of the follow
ing:
Mr.. Snug Citizen of the United
States about now is priding himself
on the fact that he does not have to
go to war. That there is no compul-
sorry enlistment law in this land of
freedom those who have.
In this connection, let me state to
the intelligent readers of The Day
Book that every man between the
ages of Is and As, both inclusive, is
AUTOMATICALLY declared a mem
Der of his states militia, and that the
militia of each state is subject to the
orders of the president, the command
'er-in-chief of our army. ...
This most pernicious piece of legis-
lation passed both houses of Congress
in 1902, without a moments debate,
and not paper in the U. S. published
the fact.
1t is a well-known fact to us law
yers that law is not really law
until the supreme court of the land
passes upon it's constitutionality.
During the recent Mexican turmoil
this enactment was taken up in a
friendly suit by the Ohio National
Guard to the supreme court, testing
its constitutionality, and was given
the 80. k" by that tribunal.
1t is now a law And reads thus:
That every citizen between the above
ages is hereby declared a member
of the militia; that he is subject to the
same rules as the regular army.
Let us presume that Mr.. Snug Citi-
zen is a devout Catholic and we are
at war with some country which the
vatican is backing. Mr. Catholic does

member of the army. How can that
be? Why, that sacrifices my liberty.
Nix on that rough stuff. But the cor
poraIs guard comes round next
morning and marches him off to be
tried for failing to answer the nations
call. Proceed with the court-martial,
please. .E ~. :-.>.s..,.
Let us give a better illustration.
The government of the United States
(you know the triumvirate) is at war
with labor unions. Mr.. Intelligent
Man is in favor of the battle the
union is waging, against the trium-
Virate. He viii not fight against the
labor organizations of this land. He
WILL exercise his right of pursuit of
happiness; he will not fight-it is his
liberty to decide that. Too bad old
man: Witness the Dead March play
ing, said Files-on-Parade. For they're
hangin' Mr.. Liberty in the mornin'.
If this country were attacked by
some other nation we would all spring
into resistance; hence, obviously, this
statute is not designed for that con-
tingency. And if it were soldier who
wouldn't fight for Old Glory if she,
were really attacked wouldn't make a
good soldier by coercion. Hence, we
can only. conclude that it was put on
the books to be prepared for such an
economic war-as, for an instance,
Colorado. -..-.--
"Ohtbut the country will never use
this right?" Then why have it on the
statute books? 1t will not use it; UN-i
TIL THE ECONOMIC NECESSITY
PRESENTS ITSELF AGAINST THE
LABOR UNION.

KANANHA
County is Looking Very Much
Brighter for Republican
Success This Year.
tssEelAL 10 rnE rELseRAn,

CHARLESTON, May Son Sat
urday afternoon of this week dis
trict conventions will be held by the
Republicans of Kanawha county for
the election of delegates to the state
convention of the party to be held
here on May 90, and that the holding
of the district meetings Will former
~ open the campaign in Kanawha
county is the general idea.
Until recently the Republican
prospect in this county looked rather
diseouraging, but OF late days there
has come rallying back to the
party of men who left 1t in 1912 to
follow the fortunes of the colonel
and 1t is very evident fact that q
decided change is taking place in the
hearts of the former members of the
Progressive party, and as a result
the indications today are that Sat
urday's conventions Will be largely
attended. Here in Charleston dis
trict, nineteen delegates to the
state convention are to be selected,
and as an indication OF the interest
already felt, several have voiced
their desires OF being elected dele
gates.
Up until this time the only an
nouncements for nominations sub
ject to Republican approval are two
who aspire to be county superintend-
cnt OF schools. While there have
been number of candidates an
nounced upon declared Progress
sive platform, these announcements
hav stirrrd little comment. the most
of those announcing being former
'1nsurgents' of the Republican
party, now recognized to be Pro-
gressives for office only. Following
Saturdays district conventions II Is
thought there will be number of
announcements from Republicans
for legislative and other Offices
within the gift of the county.

Another left-handed pitcher has

is at present the mainstay OF the
West Virginia University team.
Barron is six feet two inches and
but nineteen years old. He attracted
considerable attention last year by
his clever work. ana the big league
scouts were after him. Barron,
however, refused to consider any of
fers because he wanted to finish
