HOB0Es ARE COMING

Stragglers from Kelly's hobo
army are headed this way. The
Humboldt Star says that seves.een
of them struck Inlay Thursday
night and when told by Constable
Rich to nov on the ringleader of
the bunch started toward the Off
Ger, shouting TO his comrades,
Come on fellows. Let's make a
stand and clean out the town." He
was promptly placed under arrest
and the rest of the gang weakened.
After locking up the leader. the
constable herded the others east
ward out Of town. The leader was
taken to Winnemucca and placed in
Jail. The Star says that a charge
of vagrancy will be placed against
him and that he will be given a
"hoater."
These men r pretty sure to
strike Elko in a few days and the
officers should be on the watch for
them and be prepared to keep them
moving. No favors should be
shown them.

ADVANTAGES OF THINKING

To have learned to think, whe
Their learned in schools or out of
them, is to have attained the most
valuable of all requirements. Any
system of instruction which does
not teach a man to think falls short
OF the best results. A man who
has learned to think continually
separates and ca bines, and from
the scraps he gathers he constructs.
Material is ever at his hand and
whether he is On a journey, in the
shop or the factory, his eve is ever
o%bservant and his senses alert.
Having learned how to acquire
knowledge, ne never finds himself
anywhere that something does rot
appear which he wants to see, and
having seen, will not sooner or lat
er put to practical use. Having
learned to think, he sends forth
every moment freighted with some
sort of effort. He has learned
the "value OF work as a means of
happin and Of change of work
As means Of rest" md idleness as
neither necessary nor recreative.
He a catch an idea on the wing.
and an idea gained is a source of
true happiness. - Personality.

Mrs. McWhinuey spike of the
vocational training of children as

educators is toward vocational
rather than academic training as
the principal work of the high
school Of the future.
Mr. Steninger spoke briefly Of
the Child Labor laws and the part
women have played in bringing
about better conditions for young

STRAIGHT TALK

1t is not toO'eaily TO sound a note
of warning in regard to the char
acter Of the men to be nominated
for public Office this year in the
Stats f Nevada. The primaries
will be- held in September and the
date of holding them should find
each county in a state IF prepared
ness. In the past there has heen a
great opportunity for criticism
along this line. Especially does
this warming apply to the makeup
of the Legislature. Little attcn-
ton has been paid to this matter
by either party in years past, with
the result that many men of NC
diocre ability, il any at all, have
been delegated to do the law.mak-
ing for the whole people In many
instances these men have had so
little interest in the State that has
honored them that when the ghost
failed to walk thew forthwith shook
the dust of Nevada from their feet.
The necessity is urged upon the
voters of the State in selecting
thoroughly repre- sentative men,
men whose material interests are
importaDt-to send to Carson City.
The argument cannot re offered
that such men r not available.
The fact is that in no State in the
Union a there ba found such a
large ercentsge of Capable men,
population considered as is avail
able in Nevada. II good men are
not elected to fill the offices in this
State the ultimate blame must rest
upon the people themselves. Gold
