nowadays? Prospectus OF popu.

end Of 4S hours no gas had formed
and at the end of 60 hours a very
small amount which does not signi

He ripped the corrupt practice law,
of which his opponent claims to be

an inconsistent thing it was and then
asked if the sponsor or writer of such
a law could be fit man to sit on the

by Mr.. Coleman's own letter that he
(Coleman) had been the first man to
violate the intent of the law by sug-
costing that all his friends register

Judge made an eloquent plea for his
election, stating that it was the

had been aiming for since he was
admitted to the bar. His talk made
him many friends here and he was
very warmly applauded The next

crops have fallen off some from the

was a very wet one for this section
and crops were not sown until late.

JUDGE E. E. WINTERS.

Judge f. F. Winters, the regular
Republican nominee for Judge of the
Eighth Judicial District, comprising
Churchill and Lyon counties, is the
present presiding Judge OF the Eighth
Judicial District In February. 1914,
he was appointed to this position to
fill the vacancy made by the resigna-
ton of Judge l.. N. French. While
holding the position less than year
Judge Winters has been called upon
to hold court in Lander, Humboldt,
Washoe and Lyon counties, and dur
ing this time has presided over some
of the most difficult cases in the State
and is recognized as fair and capable
man on the bench. Mr.. Winters owns
an 80-acre farm unit in Churchill
county and he and his family are
permanent residents of the State and
expect to make Nevada their home
for all time. The Judge is man
about ~ years of age and has been
in the practice of law for over p
years, In June. 1892. he graduated
from the law department of the Uni
versity of Nebraska and Immediately
went to Utah to practice In June,
1893, he volunteered his services to
the United States and did actual ser
vice as soldier in the Philippines.
In July, l07, he came to Fallon, Ne
vada, and located, and was in the
practice of law there until appointed
to the position of District Judge in
February of this year. During he time
of his holding this position his record
has been clear and he has proven
himself competent and impartial in
every instance, so there will be no
mistake in voting for him to still be
our Judge.

WAS HERE IN NEWLANDS
BEHALF.

Some weeks ago Geo H. Maxwell,
Executive Director of the National
Reclamation Association, paid Yering
ton visit, presumably for the pur
pose of telling the people about recla-
nation and irrigation. He had a fair
sized audience in the Rink Hall and
made a very good impression when he
started out, but his discourse soon
lead to simply boosting Newlands for
the u. S. Senate. The majority of the
people of this community knew New
lands better than Mr.. Maxwell does,
and they did not care to listen to his
fulsome flattery of an incompetent
servant, and told him so. Mr. Maxwell
denied that he was here in the in.
terest of Newlands' campaign, and
when Mr.. Newlands spoke here, few
nights afterward, that gentleman
deeply resented tie imputation" that
Mr.. Maxwell was here in his behalf,
although he did not deny it.
A few days ago the Times received
a personal letter from Mr.. Maxwell
relating how necessary 1T was to re-
turn Mr. Newlands to the u S. Sen
ate so that he could work for the
"Newlands' Regulation Bill which
will, as it is said, give Nevada $1,000,
600 for ten years to exepnd on recla-
nation work In the entire letter no
mention is made of the name of Con-
gresham Robert + Broussard, of
Louisiana, as in any way being inter
ested in this matter, although the bill
is known all over the country as the
"Newlands- Broussard" bill. Possibly
this is another instance where Mr.
Newlands has grabbed the credit of
some statesman to make capital for
himself Mr. Maxwell says this meas
ure will probably not be passed at the
next short session of Congress but
will become law at the long session
beginning in December, 1915. Mr..
Maxwell also hangs to the idea that
Newlands was the father of the pres

REPUDIATES NEWLANDS.

The Reno Journal, recognized as
the most influential Democratic paper
published in Nevada, has absolutely
repudiated Newlands and has been
publishing some sizzling correspond
ence and interviews with the gentle
man. Among other things the Jour
nal proprietor relates an interview
with Newlands and Sharon, his broth
in-law, that took place during the last
Newlands senatorial campaign, where
in Mr.. Newlands asked Mr.. kilbourn,
of the Journal, if he was acquainted
with the history of the San Francisco
Chronicle, which he denounced as a
Matchmaking sheet, and stated that
two of the DeY Dung brothers, pub
fishers of the Chronicle, had been
shot. This bluff did not work, appar-
emily, on the Journal man
We believe this statement because
it is not the first time such remarks
have been made. During the last cam
paign of Nm NJ Stewart in this
State, when Newlands was running
for Congress and embarrassing
Stewart for the Legislative ticket,
there was being published in Virginia
City little paper called the Daily
Report. This paper was published
by Considine, Brown & Cox, with
Johnny Considine as editor. This pa
per was supporting Stewart and lam
basting Newlands for his treachery.
During that campaign Joe Considine,
Johnny Considine's father, was stand
ing in front of the Arlington Hotel
in Carson when Newlands came along,
just after reading, in the Daily Report,
an article that was extraordinarily
caustic. Newlands stepped MP to Joe
Considne and remarked: "Considine,
that boy of yours is liable 10 get kill
ed if he does not quit villifving peo-
Pile" Joe Considine attempted to
strike Newlands but was prevented
by friends, but Johnny Considine
went heeled" after that until the
was oNNi Duiii iiio Noiii
paign, afer the Legislative ticket had
been elected and the Legislature had
convened Harry Flannery, who was
then, and is now, located in San Fran
cisco, came up to Carson in the inter
est of Stewart. Threats against Elan
merry were of almost daily occurrence,
but he was not made of the stuff to
be bluffed True, nothing came of
these threats, but it showed what
Newlands would stoop to to gain his
ends. Joe Considine is now dead,
Johnny, his son, is in the newspaper
business in San Diego, Harry Elan
merry is proprietor of the "Richelieu" in
San Francisco, and the writer of this
is the editor of the Times and was
on the ground when these early oc-
currences took place
