WHY BOYLE?

We hear a number of Republicans
asserting that they are going to vote
for Boyle, the Democratic nominee
for Governor. In fact many Repub-
icans in the State registered as Dem
ocrats so they would be able to help
Boyle receive the nomination at the
primary election. This is one of the
fine points of the Democratic primary
election lawl Personally there is
nothing to be held against Mr. Boyle's
candidacy. He is gentleman and
keen and intelligent; a good civil and
mining engineer, draughtsman and
mine expert He sprang from as
strong Republican family as ever
lived in the State of Nevada Col
Ed. Boyle, sire of Emmt, was one of
the Republican warehouses; of the Com
stock in early days and represented
Storey county as State Senator for
several terms, if our memory serves
us right At any rate he was Sena-
tor from Storey for one term to our
certin knowledge. Manassas Boyle,
recently deceased, and brother of
Col Ed Boyle, was another strong
Republican who took considerable in
terest in State affairs in early days
p. c. Boyle, another brother of Col
Boyle, was, and probably still is, pro-
prietor and editor of the Oil City
Derrick, one of the strongest Repub-
lican papers published in Pennsylva-
MIA. These two latter named gentle
men are uncles of Emmit Boyle, now
the Democratic nominee for Governor
of Nevada.
The Governor of any State is gen
orally pretty influential person. He
is member of several important
State Boards and Commissions and
his appointive power has considerable
scope, even extending to the appoint
ment of United States Senator
should that Office become vacant by
death or any other cause. The Re
publicans who vote for a Democrat
for Governor cannot suppose that, if
elected. he will favor in any way that
would weaken his party any measure
that Republicans might ask for, nor
make any appointments of Republi
cans. We can understand why Re
publicans in many instances vote for
their Democratic friends for county
and township offices. Why they will
vote for the Democratic head of the
State ticket, which is so closely con
nected with national affairs, is be
yond our understanding. Democrats
are making the effort OF their lives
this year to elect a Governor and
United States Senator 1t is their
privilege to do this and no fault is 10
be found about it. But if you are
Republican you cannot afford to sup
port Democrats for these two import
ant positions. If you want to supper.
Democrats for these positions get out
and be a Democrat and be done with
it. 1t is this kind of work on the
part of Republicans that has made It
so strenuous for the Republican party
to hold its own in Ne ada. Don't do
it any more if you want the party you
claim to belong to to hold the post
ions in the State that will strength
en- it.

WHAT THEY HAVE ENDORSED.

The Democratic party of Nevada
met this week and organized for the
campaign. The principal thing that
they did was to endorse the admins
tration of Wilson and Bryan, ana in
doing this they have endorsed such
conditions as the following:
The customs figures for the eight
months ending August 81 tell the
story of the decline in American bust
ness and the reasons therefor. They
expose conditions for seven months
prior. to the war, and for which the
war was manifestly not responsible
only slightly less discouraging than
those which have prevailed since the
Kaiser shook his mailed fist in the
face of the world.
For the first eight months of 1913
we sold the world more goods than
we bought to an excess OF nearly tour
hundred millions of dollars For the
first eight months of 1914 we sold the
world only forty-one millions more
than we purchased from it. Soothing
the nerves of our Democratic friends
by eliminating war-torn August from
the equation, our loss in trade balance
during the seven months of Demo-
cratic tariff was over three hundred
millions of dollars. 1t is peculiar
fact that even during August we sold
Europe sixty-nine millions less than
we bought.
This loss of American production
explains the millions of idle working
men who walk the streets OF our
cities. 1t explains the closed facto-
ries and workshops. 1t explains pal
sled business. 1t explains the neces-
sity which confronts President Will
son of imposing the penalties OF
nation at war upon nation at peace
1t explains the steady drain OF gold
to Europe that compelled hnanciers
of America for the first time in their
history to close the New York Ex-
change and thus prevent the sale by
European investors of American Sc
curities for which the prospective
American buyer could not find the
necessary gold to pay.
The United States is rapidly becom-
ing a debtor nation. AT the close OF
every month of 1914 the sum owing
us in foreign exchange was less than
the month before Soon, on settle
ment day, Uncle Sam, instead OF re
ceiving a comfortable balance from
those with whom he does business,
must unbutton his pockets and pay
balance himself. The individual who
buys more than he sells faces an Ill
innate and sad day of reckoning no
more unpleasant, however, than con
fronts the nation that blunders into
similar piece of foolishness. 1t re
quires no political economist to fore
cast the fate of the person or the
people whose income is less than their
outgo.
Mr.. Wilson has forced that upon
us and the Democrats of Nevada have
endorsed it.

Clubbed out of the city, driven from one
camping place to another by streams of
water from fire hose, hungry and cold,
the army of 1000 unemployed men who
started from San Francisco to Washing
ton were making a serious problem for
the city and county authorities to-day.
Sheriff Munro declared tnat the army
must leave the county before tonight.
Five hundred have deserted the army
and scattered to various cities in this
section of the State. The remainder
are sullen, and trouble is anticipated
when the authorities attempt to send
them out of the county.

10 Bodies Recovered,
27 Still Missing.

ST. LOUIS, March 10.-Facts sifted
from the mass of contradictory re-
ports on the disastrous fire which de-
stroyei the Missouri Athletic Club
and Boatmens Bank here yesterday
showed to-day that ten bodies have
been recovered from the ruins. OF
these eight have been identified, 27
are still missing.
Three bodies were recovered at
noon to-day.
In the confusion that has existed
since the first report of deaths in the
fire the number Of dead has been va
riously stated at from five to fifty.
The following list of identified dead IS
believed to be correct:
William f. Erd, East ST. Louis: F.
P. Williams, New York; Allen Hans
cock. st. Louis; Edwin o. Kessler.
st. Louis; James B. Riley, railroad
contractor St. Louis; James NJ.
Hickey. of Chicago and St. Paul;
Marshall Bier, president of fur COM
pany; William ]. Kinser, treasurer
of construction company
The work Of digging into the
ruins progressed slowly to-day on ac-
count of the danger from the walls
that threatened to fall any minute
Diggers were ordered out of the ruins
during the morning and firemen were
assigned to the work of tearing down
the most dangerous walls.
Early in the day spectators who
were close to the ruins reported that
eleven bodies were lying near the
Washington avenue wall where the
men evidently had attempted to find
way out F1remen and police re-
fused to confirm the report.
The vaults of the Boatmen's Bank
were opened to-day by a committee
of stockholders and officers, and all
the institutions records. securities
and currency was found intact.

hours around the two steel globes

VERNOY OUT
Of RACE, IS
REPORT
To Withdraw After Few Ballots
and Throw Strength to Pace.
Election Unlikely.

The utter collapse of efforts to in
duce William P. Fain to withdraw
after the second or third ballot is
expected to result in the Board OF
Police Commissioners facing an abso-
Lutte deadlock Tuesday night in the
selection of a chairman to succeed
Carlos H. Mason.
The strenuous attempt to get Fain
out of the race, engineered by friends
of Robert T. Pace and Mayor Wood
ward, has resulted only in bringing
from Fain an absolute denial that
there is the slightest chance that he
will withdraw, and to narrow the
race down to an endurance contest
between Fain and Pace.
w. A. Vernoy, who gained consid
cradle strength a few days ago
through the bitterness of the Pace
Fain fight, was virtually eliminated
from the fight by developments of
Tuesday, owing to his reported action
in pledging his support to Pace after
a few ballots had proven to him the
futility of his own candidacy.
indications Favor Fain.
Politicians Tuesday admitted that
indications favor Fain, although those
familiar with the situation are of the
opinion that the board will be forced
to adjourn without electing a chair
man. The lineup of the commission
ers at noon gave Fain five votes on
the first ballot, including himself;
Pace four votes on the first ballot,
including himself. and Vernoy three
votes, counting his own.
On the second ballot, one of Yer
noy's supporters, Commissioner
George E. Johnson, will desert the
Vernoy standard and vote for Fain,
giving the latter six votes, or one less
than the number necessary to elect
This viii leave Pace with his origi-
nal four votes and Vernoy with but
two
Supporters of Pace declared Tues
DAY that Vernoy had agreed to throw
his own vote, which it is thought will
carry with it the vote of Garner. to
Pace after the second or third ballot.
With this added strength, the Pace
and Fain factions will line up with
six votes each, counting the votes of
the rival candidates; and it takes
seven to elect
Move to Eliminate Fain.
Using the alleged shifting of the
Vernoy strength as a weapon, friends
of Pace and Mayor Woodward en-
deayored to bring influence TO bear
on Fain to induce him TO withdraw
from the race after few ballots, and
allow some of his supporters to vote
for Pace. This report was indus
triously circulated by PAGES support
ers Tuesday, and that attempts to
make the deal werwe actually in
progress was tacitly admitted by
Mayor Woodward, who started the
boom for Pace and who has been the
railroad man SlauncneSl supporter
The Mayor declared that he expected
Pace to be elcted after very few
Iallots had been taken, although he
would not admit that any sort OF a
deal had been put through to insure
this belief.
Fain declared emphatically that he
would not be a party to any deal that
contemplated his own withdrawal
from the race.
ANY rumor that / will withdraw
and throw my support to someone
else is absolutely untrue" he declared
Il am In the race to stay, and ! think
my friends will support me to the
finish"
