TOsTMAsTERs RECOMMENDED
FOR OSCE0LA AND HAMILTON

After consultation. Senators New
lands and Pittman have agreed upon
and sem TO the postmaster general
their recommendations for the APP
pointment Of postmaster at Hamilton
and Osceola in this county and the
vacancies existing In twenty other
fourth class Offices in Nevada will
doubtless be filled within a few days.
When IL is considered how much
detail there is In connection with the
selection and appointment of one
postmaster it may be realized how
much work is involved In the naming
OF twenty-five. Especially In Nevada
II is quite common TO experience con-
siderable difficulty in getting a man
or oma having the desirable quail
ieations TO make an efficient and in
dustrious postmaster. In many in
stances p~artisanship had to give way
10 consider the best interests OF each
community In the personal inyestl-
cation Of candidates for postmaster
ships.

WASHINGTON. Aug. 2o--Main bat
terles OF American battieshlps hereafter

grees, practically doubling the present

perts. II Is said, after close study OF all

ments OF the European war Wherever
possible ships now under construction
and those already i'm commission. II Is
understood, Will be similarly fitted.
The effect OF the change will be 20
increase materially the range OF the
navy's fourteen-inch guns and also to
make gunfire more accurate In rough
weather. The guns now have sufficient
range TO reach anything within the
limit of vison at sea- and the added ele-
walton will enable them to hurl shells
at objects far beyond the horizon or over
hills OF considerable size in bombarding

Both we're fought at almost the extreme

ample warning enatled tn inhab tants to
reach places OF safety with most of their

fered heavy losses in crops
EXCEPT for this break, the flood situa-
tion improved materially. The break
caused the river to fall slightly at Des
Arc, and its effect was expected to be
felt tomorrow upstream, where the river
continued to rise today. Newport has
begun the task of restoration where the
flood wrought ruin, and refugees have

CHICAGO, Aug. 29.-William Jen-
nings Bryan, on his way to Winnona
Lake, Ind, stopped long enough in
Chicago yesterday to criticize Theo-
dore Roosevelt for his speech at
Plattsburg, N. Y. Mr. Bryan said;
is said to have been an ancient
custom for parents to teach their
children the evils of intemperance
by taking before them persons in an
intoxicated condition. 1t is possible
that Mr.. Roosevelt is serving a use
full purpose in warning the public Of
the effects which the doctrine Of
preparedness may have on a man
when he gives himself up to 1t as a
regular business"

OYSTER BAY, N. Y. Aug. 29.-Former
President Theodore Roosevelt tonight Is
sued another lengthy statement in reply
to Secretary of War Garrison in the
controversy brought about by Mr.. Roose-
velts Plattsburg speech Colonel Roose-
/ welt took issue with the secretary on the
administrations attitude toward Mex
leo and Haiti. He also called attention
TO what he called the unpreparedness
OF the American fleet, saying In part:
Il point out TO him that for nearly
two years in 1913 and 1914 the ships of
the navy were never exercised in fleet
maneuvering, and, as l am reliably in
formed, were never exercised in fleet or
squadron gunnery.
What Child Of Six Knows.
"A moderately intelligent child of six
knows that the failure for two years
to undertake such meneUvers means a
literally criminal deterioration i'm tho
fleet and cannot possibly mean anything
else. No expert knowledge is needed on
this point; 1t is mere matter Of Or
dinsry common sense.
The very great falling off in the
gunnery that was shown by. the results
last spring and the early part OF the
summer are directly due to this cup-
able misconduct i'm handling our navy;
| and 1t represents unpreparedness of the
very worst kind because unpreparedness
