"Sure, II you had just as lief.
Margie?" he asked in a somewhat
relieved tone.

boy" I answered. Besides, we
are old married folks now"
"Yes, thank God" said Dick
fervently, and then he whispered
close to my ear: ''Oh, II you only
knew, Margie, how much I love
you"
Always, Dick?" l asked.
Don't you know, you foolish
girl, that dor" he answered.
Which I think is Dicks way of
not telling me that he does not
love me WHEN l DISAGREE
with him.
While we we're waiting for the
car he said In a tone which
sounded as though we had never
discussed the using Of his credit

SANTA MONICA, Cal, Jan. 8.
There ia something unmistak-
ably fascinating about a cowboy
and his happy-go-lucky outdoor
life. From the careless tie of his
neckerchief to the cool. calm, dar-
ing. determined way he sits a
bucking broncho, his every act
and appearance bespeak freedom
and courage.
That is how the cowboys on the
big Kay Bee ranch up the coast
from Santa Monica impressed me
the day they gave an exhibition
of western horsemanship in my
honor.
'sThe boys are going to ride a
wild horse" was the word that
spread like wild fire all over the
camp during the morning. 1t was
just like telling children q circus
was coming to town.
who is going to ride" was
the first question.
"Why, Earl Severn, Of course"
was the reply. And right away
the interest doubled.

Raising Nevada Potatoes
For New York

Nevada potatoes in New York in
1915" as predicted a year ago by
State Publicity Commissioner
Charles Norcross, are to become
Nevada potatoes in New York in
1914" if the plans of a group of Cal
ifornia and Nevada capitalists are put
through as expected. Incorporation
papers will be filed in the near future,
it is stated to-day, for a company or
ganized to grow Nevada potatoes and
sell them in the markets of the east.
With a freight rate to San Francisco
of a quarter of a cent a pound, they
figure ON being able to deliver the po-
tatoes in New York at So to SO a ton
through the Panama canal. The trans
portation price at that figure is con-
sidered reasonable. Potatoes in
crates, like cantaloupes and peaches,
is the proposition of the new corpor-
alton.
The figures on potato importations
each year are placed at 10000 car
loads. 1t is estimated the unused
bottom lands along the Carson,
Truckee and Humboldt rivers will
yield 10000 carloads of potatoes in
addition to those grown at this time.
1t is expected this production may be
reached if a satisfactory market is
assured.

v PRESS COMMENT
Do Awoy With the License System

Ely Record: There is no good and
sufficient reason why a business man
should be compelled to pay a license
any more than afarmer or stockman.
A business man pays the same tax
rate on his property as the farmer,
the rancher or realty owner, and
therefore the licensing system is in
reality a double tax, and you cannot
make anything else out of it. The
business mar is heavily taxed, which
is n of the reasons why goods are
sold higher in Nevada than in some
other States. Therei is the State tax,
the county tax, the city tax and the
school tax, and then comes the State
and county license, the city license,
an exceedingly high rate for insur-
ance, high rents, to say nothing OF
water, lights and many other Incl
dentals, all of which go to swell the
cost of doing business in this little
city to undue proportions. In case
of public subscriptions for charity,
for churches or for other purposes,
the business man is expected to stand
the brunt of it. while the real estate
owner in many instances is not even
asked to contribute.
The cost of the maintenance of gov
eminent should fall on all classes of
property equally, and therefore the
license system now in vogue should
be abolished, with the exception OF
saloons, and the money raised by di-
rect taxation on all property.

Mighf Cut Out The Back Haul"

Elko Independent: There seems to
be a good deal of opposition to the
suit filed by Attorney General Nc
Reynolds to cancel the lease of the
Central Pacific to the Southern Pa
cific. We are unable to see any sub
stantial grounds for the opposition
to cancelling the lease. 1t may bene-
fit Nevada by breaking up the in
famous back haul system that robs

Nevada would suffer by the ~cancella-

MAIL CARRIERS ARE WORRIED
Fear Contract End Will Not Re-
lieve Them From the Parcel
Post Burden

Star Route mail carriers continue
to complain of the heavy parcel post
shipments and say it is impossible to
make their routes pay expenses I'M
der the terms of their present con-
tracts with the Government. Post
Office department officials have ex-
pressed their desire to help relieve
the situation, but because of the linn
itations imposed by the parcel post
act on additional compensation, the
stage men are afraid the depart
ment will not be able to give them
adequate relief.
The four-year contracts expire in
July of this year. 1t might be ex-
pected that they would welcome the
end of what they declare has been a
disastrous agreement, but the fact
is that no one sees a prospect of an
end. Each contract has in it aclause
which the Government claims binds
the contractor and his bondsmen to
continue carrying the mailsif no sat
isfactory bidders appear.
1t is claimed that no one will offer
bids on the present contracts that
the Government will accept, and that
the Government will throw out the
bids it receives and try to hold the
present contractors to their bad bar
gains.
