CANNOT SHIELD EVIL DOORS

Thu so called Corrupt Practice
Act enacted by the last Legislature
was an instrument bunHingly de-.
signed to shield those whose acts
would not bear the penetrating light
of newspaper inquiry. AS a matter
Of law it is on a parity with other
measures passed by the same coterie
of %jawsmiths and seekers after a
lite cheap notoriety and is as full of
holes as a sieve. 1t was designed
for nothing more than a threat to
muzzle the press of Nevada or to
condone the remissness of certain
papers in refraining from publish
ing facts about favored sons. The
Bonanza takes this occasion to is
sue notice to the attorney general
and all candidates for Office that
the Corrupt Practices" law will
be treated as a dead letter as it
is aimed only at a suppression of
truth and works for the election
of men who have proved recreant to
their trusts and would avail them
selves of the slightest pretext to
sueaK under cover at the first init
nation of danger.
The Bonanza does not intend to
conform to the tommy rot ideas of
the men who formulated this pure
election law. This paper proposes
to say what it ~pleases on all sub
jects whether they are palatable to
the people concerned or not. The
honest man has nothing to fear
from the Bonanza. The dark Ian
tern methods of hack politicians
who have dictated policies of every
party with which they chose to
align themselves are the ones to
fear the light. Now it is time to
give fair warning to all Democrats
and Republicans aspiring to office.
Once more let it be said that the
Bonanza is going to have some
thing to say about the next cleo
tion. We propose to do a little
politics this time where silence be-
fore has been dictated by party in
terests. There will be no gagging
of the press. Neither will there be
a bride in the hands of any boss
to determine the editorial policy.
There will be no pull or drag. The
truth will 90. This is official, final
and irrevocable. If the truth can
not be written in this office it can
and will be written in Jail and the
facts heralded in poster type on
every blank wall in the State.
Courts and officials may do their
best to enforce this law which is a
direct blow at the liberty of the
press. There will be no attention
paid TO the obnoxi US statute and
we would like to see someone iE-
terfere with this policy Of the Be-
nanza. There will be no straddline
or dodging. The Bonanza will hit
straight from the shoulder and
those who happen to get in the way
will have themselves only to blame.
