ANTI-SUfFRAGlSTS CALL
ON pRfSIDfNI WILSON

The following special dispatch to
the San Francisco Chronicle indicates
that the Nevada women opposed to
equal suffrage have carried their
cause to the nation s capital:
WASHINGTON, July 25.-The
woman suffrage fight in Nevada was
taken to the White house today, when
President Wilson received a commune
cation from the Nevada Association
of Women Opposed to Equal Suffrage,
protesting against encouragement be-
ing given to the "votes for women"
propaganda in that state. The pro-
test says:
eve are informed that congress
has been petitioned in the name of the
women of Nevada, and that the presi-
dent has been urged to advocate an
extension of the franchise by amend
ment to the Federal constitution.
"We are advised that, after
strenuous campaign covering many
months, petitions assuming to volee
the sentiments of the womanhood Of
Nevada bore the signatures of more
than 500 women There are more
than 1900 white women in Nevada
over the age of 81 years. Less than
one in thirty-four have petitioned
congress, and we DENY the right of
these 500 women to speak for the H.
900, or the right of one in thirty-four
to speak, without consent, for the
other thirty three on a subject so
vitally affecting the state, the family
and the home.'

Causes Leading UP to War.

The hatred of the Serbs and the
Austrians, growing out of the struggle
OF the Serbs for unity and freedom, in
which Austria, through her possession
of Servian provinces, effectually bars
the way.
The rage of the Servians that they,
having thrown Off the yoke of the
Turk in territory once held by the
Sultan, have been unable to win one
foot of ground or a single subject
from Austria Hungary.
The deep resentment of Austria at
the murder of the Archduke, Franz
Ferdinand, heir to the throne, on June
2sth, through Servianu plot.
The ultimatum delivered to Servia,
by Austria, demanding punishment
of the Archduke's slayers.

THE DRUG TERROR
AT NIXON SUNDAY

Manager Smith, of the Nixon opera
house, has secured one of the greatest
films of the country for Sunday
night 8 entertainment, entitled "The
Drug Terror. Several months ago
this feature was shown in Reno, but
a. that time the prices were consider
ed prohibitive for Winnemucca. the
charge for admission being placed at
30 and % cents. At this time, how
ever, the prices have been cut in two,
being 25 cents for adults and Is cents
for children.
This film is the result Of a crusade
started some time ago in most of the
states Of the Union against the drug
habit, which was spreading over the
country like blight People who
look upon tobacco and whisky as pro
duets Of his Satanic majesty, uncon-
seiously become slaves to the drug
habit, frequently through prescrip-
tions of physicians, given to tempo
rarily allay pain.
In speaking of the crusade in Chi
cago, Melbourne p. Boynton, ID. d.,
pastor of the Woodlawn Baptist
church of that city. saws:
"The new crusade against the habit

charged IS cents general admission,
with % cents for reserved seat. To
night 's prices will be 80 and % cents.
One feature of this show is the fact
that it will begin its performance
promptly at s:15 O'Clock.
Naturally there is considerable riv
airy between the two shows, as they
are playing through the same terri
tory. The Alabamas have been in the
lead up to the present. but the Busby
show will be but one day behind them
at Reno, where the former company
shows tonight and the last named to-
morrow night. From there west
through California Busby will be in

Heard on the Street Corners.

Although Saturday of this week
will be the last day for fling nomi-
nation papers, so far there is no con-
test for single office, with the ex-
ception of county surveyor, and for
that matter there are several for
which no candidates have announced
themselves But it is considered prob
able that there will be tive or more
candidates for all the offices, with the
possible exception of District Judge
county clerk, treasurer and short-term
commissioner.
For district attorney, T. A. Bran
don is the only candidate to announce
himself. So far as can be learned
there will be no Republican candidate
for this office, but there are several
Democratic attorneys mentioned ir
connection with the Office. Tom Salt
er, of the law firm of Salter & Rob
ing, has been urged to make the race
as an independent and at one time
had practically agreed to run, but
complications are said to have arisen
that may cause him to change his
mind In that event, it is said that
r. M. Hardy, of Lovelock or T. +
Powell, of the same place, may be in
dueed to enter the race. Both are
considered strong men. Two years
ago, ii will be remembered, Hardy
run in the primaries against Callahan
making a good showing. While h,
carried Winnemucea, he was not 81
successful in the balance of the coun
ty. Powell run in the election TIVE
years ago for member of assembly
and was "nosed' out for fifth plac.
by few votes. He is hard cam
paigner, in addition to being a goot
lawyer, and should he enter the raes
his opponent win know that he ha
been through campaign.
For aduitor and recorder there ha
been no announcement as yet. It i
stated, on good authority, that r. A
Mcclure, of T4ovelock, will be tn.
Republican candidate. He is extreme
ly popular in the south end of tn
county and has fine reputation as ;
business man, having for several year
been the agent for Wells, Fargo
company at Loveloek. At present h
is manager of the Park hotel, recent
ly opened by the Arobio Bros.

For county assessor, A. E. Organ is
the only candidate in the field to
date, being an aspirant for the Demo
cratic nomination. For this Office, on
the Republican side, the names of W..
J Merchant and w. +. Pearee are
prominently mentioned.
The Legislative Ticket.
Avowed candidates for legislative
honors are scarce. While no announce
ments for state senator have been
made, it is stated by those in posi-
tion to know that Senator Bell will
be a candidate to succeed himself.
His only probable Democratic oppon-
ent will be Former Commissioner j..
d. Bradshaw, who is being strongly
urged bv his friends to make the race.
On the Republican side, the names
of M. Reinhart and DIR. G. E. Swezy
are the only ones that have been mem
toned in connection with the Office.
But both are disinelined to make the
race, for the reason that they are
busy men. Mr.. Reinhart states that
it would be well-nigh impossible for
him to devote two months to the
office, if elected. DIR. Swezy went to
Carson two years ago as member of
assembly, and when he came back
found that his practice had been scat
tered and that the Office had cost him
several times what the salary amount
ed to.

CANDIDATES AND
POLITICAL GOSSIP

Emmett ID BOYLE, member of the
Tax commission, has been urged by a
conference of leading Democrats to
be a candidate for Governor, and it
is believed he will announce himself
foi the nomination within a few days.
Lieutenant Governor Ross, Democrat,
who was considering being a candi.
date, say she viii not be candidate
to succeed himself. Denver s. Dick
erson, leader of one wing of the Dem
ocratic party, who, it was thought,
might come out for governor, an
nounees positively that he will not do
so.
The nomination for governor on
the Democratic ticket, if Boyle comes
out as expected, now lies between
Boyle anu Lem Allen, former acting
governor One of these two and
either DIR. J. A. Aschcr, of Sparks, or
Maurice Sullivan, of Goldfeld, both
out for lieuteant-governor will lead
the Democratic party, while Governor
Oddie and Fl. G.. Humphrey will lead
the Republican ticket.
j. F. Abel for State Superintendent.
In this issue of the Silver State APP
pears the announcement of J. +. Abel,
of Winnemueca, as candidate for the
Republican nomination for State Su-
perintendent of. Public instruction.
J. F. Abel was born in Humboldt
county 36 years ago, receiving his
early education in the public schools
here. In 1897 he entered the Nevada
State University. graduating in 1901.
He then entered upon his chosen pro-
fession of educator his first position
being principal of the Elko grade
school. which he held for two years.
He was then elected principal of the
Winnemucca high school, which posi-
tion he held for two years more. In
1907 Prof. Abel was appointed deputy
superintendent for the Third district,
comprising Humboldt and Churchill
counties, which position he still holds.
Although still young man, Prof.
Abel is recognized as one of the lead
ing educators of the state. Of his
nomination on the Republican ticket
there is little doubt, as at present he
has no opposition. Should the voters
of the state fail to elect him in No
vember, they will make mistake
that may prove disastrous to our edu-
eational system.
