The Endorsement of Giffen is a sur
prise to the party associates in To
nopah who had forgotten all about
the former speaker of the Legislature
since he had taken his departure from
this state and has not been seen in
side its borders for the last three
years. Tonopah Democrats would
like to know what Giffen has done
to endear him to the junior senator
to an extent that warrants the rec
ommendation for office.
Senators Newlands and Pttman
have recommended the following fed
eral appointments for the state Of
Nevada:
Receiver of U. S. land office al
Carson City, John F. vardaman ot
Goldfield.
Postmaster at Reno. Fred l.
White.
u. S. surveyor general John B
0'Sulliyan of Reno, to take effec
