J. D. METZGAR LOSES CAR
Someone Takes Joy Ride in Local
Mans Automobile Sunday

But for one fact J. d. Metzgar might
have had an imaginative nightmare
Sunday night, but he is certain that
his experience was no dream now. He
left his automobile standing in front
of his Tenth avenue home Saturday
night and it disappeared. He called
the police and the dragnet was utilized
in searching for the missing car
When Mr.. Metzgar awoke Sunday
morning it was 1920 and he wondered
if the police had recovered his car.
Something led him to the window
where he saw the car standing as he
had left it at the curbing. At first he
thought that he must have been dream
ing but an examination of the gaso-
line tank revealed the fact that some
one had been joyriding. At any rate
he is satisfied to recover the car with
so little trouble.

SLATON AND WEST
PERSONAL FRIENDS

Atlanta, Feb. 27.-WhiIe Governor
SIaton was by no means actuated en-
tirely by mere personal wishes in the
appointment OF L. S. senator to sue
coed the late Hon. A. o. Bacon, it must
have given him good deal Of personal
satisfaction when he decided after
v Weighing all considerations to appoint
Col. w. s West.
The admiration of the two men one
for another dates back to the years
they served together in the legislature
and the state senate. Their esteem and
regard were tempered by time and
more than once they stood shoulder to
shoulder when important crises came
up in the assembly.
An interesting anecdota of the two
was told at the capitol this morning in
connection with the last governors race
Col. West, urged by large number of
South Georgians had decided that he
would run for governor About that
time he came to Atlanta and went out
to call on Mr.. Slaton. He found Mr.
Slaton laid up in bed with the grippe
Slaton, who had heard nothing of
Vests intention, said, We'll, Colonel
West, l am going to run for governor"
In that event" responded West,

CANDIDATES ARE
REMAINING QUIET
UNTIL ELECTION

Sumters candidatal sprinters-the
nine able ones who have offered for
the available county offices, have not
1een running this week to any great
extent, a fact due doubtless to the
slippery condition CT the covered
streets, but every mothers son of
them are still in the race, and are
quite willing for the 1000 white vot-
ers of Sumter to know it, and vote
sofidly for all of them.
The candidates have easy sailing
this time. Only three of them, Tax
Receiver Howell Sheriff Fuller and
Treasurer Williams, have any opposi-
ton. The others lose no sleep at all.
The democratic primary for county
officers will be held March 18th, and
the candidates, even those who viii
have no opposition, will feel relieved
when the ballots are counted and all
of them record mortgage upon their
respective jobs for the next two years.
The entry lists for the hopef, |
sprinters close next Tuesday, 3rd inst,
and only those who formally announce
by the closing hour that day and set
tie their dues can wrestle with the
other Philistines under the plum tree.
AS there comes no news of other pro-
bable candidates lit would seem that
the bookings were all completed. Sure
ly there may be others gathered at the
pie counter.
Two members of the board of county
commissioners are to be nominated.
as yet there are no prospective

city of Reno. Such outbreaks are
more than liable to happen right in
our community at most any time,
since the predominance of vaults and
eesspools form a constant menace to
public health. Conditions existing in
many sections of this town are ap-
palling and should have immediate
attention, otherwise there is no tell
ing just where the slight infections
now prevalent in this community
might end. The attention OF the
chief Commissioners OF the Public Ser
vice Commission of Nevada, at the
time of his last visit to Tonopah, as
well as the chairman of the Board Of
County Commissioners and the health
officer, was directed to a cellar on
Main street that is overlooking with
the effluvium from a neighboring sep
tic tank and this sickening condition
exists at the present time with no
apparent relief in sight. Whether
this is due to neglect on the part OF
officials entrusted with the safe
guarding of public health or whether
the present sanitary laws are made.
quate to control a situation of this
kind has not been determined, but II
is safe to say that something must be
done at mo distant date IL we are to
avoid repetition of the plague that
visited our town some few years ago
If existing laws and ordinances were
correctly construed 1t would be an
easy matter to distribute more equally
the burden of sewage disposal. There
can be no logic in a situation that
charges upon the few and leaves 10
the many a freedom from such a tax
and gives them the right to pollute
neighborhoods in which others are
striving for sanitary conditions. The
Public Service Commission of Nevada
has brought relief in other instances
to this town and has promised further
relief in the way OF reduced sewage
charges providing more liberal pat
ronage is given to the sewer company
Cooperation on the part of the public
