AGAIN: GONE AGAIN

Like Sam Platt, we re going to call "a spade a spade" We
have the heart to do it. If we have the club we are, however,
not going to take advantage. We will not knowingly misrepre-
sent. We believe too thoroughly in a square deal for that. We
want only to aid in the election of MI to public office who in
their very hearts are anxious to assist in advancing the cause
and welfare of Nevada-men who put the interests of this COM
monwealth far ahead Of selfshn ess and petty political intrigue.

every man and woman in Nevada knows it. For these many
years he has pulled the WOOL over the eyes of a majority of the
people of this state.
Last January he crossed the continent for the special purpose
of placating, if possible, a political opponent. He listed his name

that is his on the heights overlooking the Truckee river. And

senator was soon gone again-gone when the truce with his po-

Recently Senator Newlands came again-came to ask Neva-
dams to send him once more to the senate of the United States to
represent them and their interests in that body. 1t has been
said that this will be the last time he will seek this high office
at the hands of the electorate of this state. If in time gone by

HIGH GRADE ORE
IS DISCOVERED
SENSATIONAL PICTURE ROCK
BEING TAKEN FROM PROP
ERTY NEAR LAS VEGAS

Ore containing more gold than
rock, in which the yellow metal has
been deposited by the forces of ma
ture in every tiny seam and cavity
in the quartz until gold is the pre-
dominating feature of the samples
displayed, is being taken from the
Quo Vadis mine about 23 miles
southeast of this city, says the Las
Vegas Age. The property is owned
by John Anderson and c. c.. Ron
now. The value of the ore being
taken out is estimated at many
thousands of dollars a ton. The
seam of highgrade is said to be near
ly two inches wide and is found in
the middle of an orebody running in
value between 800 and 5000 per
ton.
Although the strike has been
whispered about for several days the
is travelling fast and many 10
cations are being made. The entire
district, many miles in extent, is
known to be highly mineralized and
it is said that other claims than the
Quo Vadis are giving promise of
riches. The editor of the Age has
SCI samples of the Quo
Vadis highgrade and can truthfully
say that has never seen rock so rich
in pure gold as this.

"GIFT SHIP" MOVEMENT
MEETS WITH LOCAL FAVOR

Frank Friedman of Friedman's de-
partment store, who is receiving To-
cal donations for the San Francisco
Chronicle Gift Ship" to the needy
children of war-torn Europe, states
that the residents of Goldfeld are
manifesting great interest in the
movement. He says a number of To-
cal residents have donated cash.
The members of the Woman's
club are holding a sewing bee this
afternoon, making babies wearing
apparel. Donations made today by
the school children will probably be
turned over to Mr.. Friedman tomor-
cow. The Pythian Sisters are max
ing preparations to hold a cooked
food sale at the Friedman store in
the nea future for the benefit of the
gift ship" Goldfield's donations
will be shipped to San Francisco in
time to reach that city before No

CHANGE THEIR NAMES

LONDON, Oct. ia German or
German sounding name tends to
make its possessOr SO unpopular
both in a business and a social way
in London that there has been a
rush Of British-born and naturalized
German citizens in England to the
courts for new names. Some of the
changes On the court records are:
Schloss to Castle; Schwartz to
Black; Klussman to Maclaren;
Rosenthal to Rodney; Howitz to
Howard; Koenig to Kingsley. Dun
keyhuhler to Duncan; Scharlieb to
Shirley; Weischenck to Wynee;
Kuss to Cuss; Brueggemey to
Bridges, and ~Stohwasser to Stowe.
But the most tactful shift was by
the man who traded Kaiser for
King.

COLD ''ORE RETURNS
$500 TO THE TON
SUPERINTENDENT McQUARRIE
ENCOUNTERS HIGH-GRADE IN
BULL VALLEY MINES

With specimens of gold ore carry
ing fakes of gold plainly discernible
to the naked eye and gold bullion
valued at $500, which he says was
reduced from half a ton of dry ore,
Superintendent r. G.. McQuarrie OF
the Bull Valley Mines company ar
rived in Salt Lake yesterday from
the property. He spent the greater
portion of the day in visiting the
various mining machinery firms in
Salt Lake and in examining various
milling devices. He will install a
small stamp mill on the property.
The company has sixteen patented
claims in the Bull Valley district,
which is twenty-eight miles south of
Modena, on the San Pedro, Los An
geles & Salt Lake railroad. The pre-
bodies that have been opened up by
superintendent McQuarrte are on
the tunnel level. The ore was en-
countered at 226 feet from the por-
tai of the tunnel and at 800 feet.
The tunnel is in at present about
$50 feet and has been driven on
what is known as the Hamburg
claim. Ore has also been encounter
ed on the Spot claim and on the
Primer claim.
The country Is undertake by
paleozoic sediments, which have
been cut by and capped by tertiary
lavas. The ore is found along the
contact and the specimens brought
to Salt Lake by superintendent Nc
Quarrie are literally impregnated
with the yellow metal. The COM
pany has only been organized for a
short time and the showing is very
gratifying to the management. John
T. Hodson is president, M. R.
Evans vice president and Willard
Scowcroft is secretary and treasurer
of the company. The stock is held
almost entirely by Utah people.

the threatened still higher cost of
living in the United States on &C
count of the war in Europe may
have this good result that 1t will
cause us to use better judgment in
the matter of our diet, to the great
advantage of both our health and
our pocketbook.
The Chicago Clean Food club is
planning the formation of a chain of
neighborhood clubs to be created for
the double purpose of fighting the
war cost of living and establishing a
permanent bureau of service for the
poor.
According to an officer of this or
~ganization, the present furry in
prices of foodstuffs is a blessing in
disguise and a valuable opportunity
TO teach women how to cook, what
to cook, why and when to cook it,
and how to regulate the family diet
without lessening it's nutritive value.
The American woman is termed a
waster, and the American nation a
nation of dyspeptics and doctors, in
the resume of the present situation
by Mrs. VonHolst, acting president
of the club, who suggests that we
need to eat less and vary our foods
if we wish to keep we'll and force
the market back to it's normal con-
dition.
1--WE have two things to accom-
plish in the clubs l am going to
FORM" said Mrs. VonHolst. 1.-The
first is to find out where food can be
obtained at very reasonable prices,
and how to help our poor to profit by
advantages. such as buying at whole
sale prices. The second is to teach
our members how to live we'll but
frugally. The curse Of our time is
our w~astefulness. Our illnesses are
mostly from overnutrition instead of
under nutrition.
Tell me what you eat, and I'll
tell you what you are is the phrase
often quoted by Helen H. Richards,
from whom I obtained the greater
poAe vi II ICuSC VI lOOuoIuIlc
and their values. We eat too much.
We need simplicity in our diet. We
eat too much sugar and starch. We
should feature vegetables, salads,
eggs and fish in our menus, and use
meat sparingly, especially in sum-
mer. But it is not to be denied that
there are tissues in meat which can
not be replaced by anything else.
Our clubs will aim to teach wo-
men practical economy and perfect
housekeeping. Leaders will be Sc
lected in all parts Of the city"
This is a movement which could
well spread all over the country at
this time. We believe that in
dividual housewives are doing their
best to economic, but in union there
is strength.
