or 20 degrees difference. Thirty de-
grees is 40 minutes by the clock,

DEMOCRATIC /.
ASSEMBLY TICKET

U-.FZM -.-..
Saturday night Fred G. Weight
and the writer filed their papers
for assemblymen on the democratic
ticket. The primary ticket now
stands John Schoer. Frank Winter,
Harold Hale, A. W. Fuller, Fred
|C. Voight and W. w. Booher.
From these six the democratic yot-
ers must choose five at the primary
election to make the race in No
vember
The announcement of Mr..
Voight appears elsewhere. He is
serving his second term as county
clerk and is a popular young man.
If nominated and elected we believe
he will make an excellent member
uf the law making body. He is we'll
known throughout the county and
will receive q big vote both at the
primary and general election. He
submits his candidacy to the demo-
cratic voters and premises faithful
service il elected.
So far as the writer is concerned
he has lived in the state since 1875
and has been part Of it. II he has
any qualifications for the Office of
assemblyman, the voters of Elko
county should know it as he has
been one of them since September
1886. He has no desire to blow his
own horn and tell the people his
angelic or other qualities. All he
can say at this time is that ifnomi-
mated and elected he will be on the
job during the session of the leeis-
lature and will serve no particular
interest to the detriment of the
other interests of the state. He
has no pet schemes, but will always
be found fayoring those measures
that will reduce taxation and abol-
ish useless Offices whose incumbents
are eating the substance Of the peo-
pie without an adequate return in
public service. With this notice
he submits his candidacy to the yot-
ers for their acceptance or reiec-
ton.
