FIGHT IS ON AGAINST BILL

The 100000 acre land bill now before the house of representatives
promises to cut some figure in the campaign in Nevada the coming
months. The Reno Journal is making subtle attacks o N it and on Sena-
tor Pttman, its author, Under the pretense that it makes for monopoi-
cation and is against the interests of the little fellow" But, contra to
that, it is asserted from other quarters that the big land owners and
stockmen are against it because it puts a stop to their grabbing. 1t is
also asserted, and this the Appeal gets pretty straight, that Congress-
a Roberts has received word that the bill must never get through
the house of representatives. These instructions have been passed on
to him through certain members of the Republican State Central COM
mittee, and those members are known to be close to the big landed IN
terests of the state. In the tactics that are being followed only con-
fusion can remain and in pursuing them it is almost certain that the
bill will never pass, no matter how much virtue it possesses.
In this connection the Appeal would like to hear from Its readers
for opinions and expressions on the bill. The correspondence will be
published with the end that the measure "a be more thoroughly under
stood.

LIKE A FISH IN A NET

William Randolph Hearst is houndering in a political sea like a fish
in a seine, and the more he founders the more ineXtricable becomes his
position. Politically he does not know where he is at, nor does any
else. One day he intimates his papers are for Roosevelt for presi-
dent to succeed Wilson and the next day they are for Champ Clark, or
some other Democrat who is "agin' the administration, but lurking n
the shadow OF all the candidates he suggests are the outlines of the form
of w. r. Fl. But all hope in that line disappeared years ago. Time
was when Hearst had opportunities accorded to but few Americans.
With money and a string of papers that reached from IN end of the
nation to the other he could have made himself the most popular a
in the United State, but when he gained certain heights he could no
longer hide his Unborn se1hshness, his greed, or his jealous instincts.
1t wa his undoing,. just as it has been for centuries the undong of all
men who possessed those qualifications and failed in dealing honestly
with mankind.

SENATOR CORES MISTAKE

That a United States senator would introduce a resolution in the
senate based on hearsay and tending to seriously embarrass his party
seems incredible; but Senator Gore has done this. says the Stockton
Mail. 1t developed yesterday that his pyrotechnec resolution of a few
days ago was the progeny of rumors. Some ne understood President
ing civilization" and a using his armed ship policy to accomplish his
purpose. This preposterous rumor appears to have reached the ears OF
Senator Gore and taken a firm hold on his fertile mind. Immediately
he aw visions of a titanic struggle with Americans being slaughtered
by the minions-and all because a few tourists persisted in travelling
aboard armed merchant ships. His next move "a not to interview
the president, as any other man would have done, but to rush into the
senate and introduce a sensational and prejudhia1 resolution.
His excuse yesterday, after lit became known that President Wilson
had been done a serious injustice, is IN of the weakest eve heard IN the
senate, and that is saying a good deal.
"T introduced my resolution because I was apprehensive we were
heading toward war" he said. "My act "a based on a report which
seemed to m e to come from the highest authority that certain senator's.
and members of the house in a conference with the president received
from him the intimation, if not the declaration, that if Germany insisted
on her position, the United States would insist upon hers, and that this
would result probably in a breach of diplomatic relations, and breacn
of diplomatic relations would probably be followed by a state of wat
and that a state Of war might not be an evil, might not be ungratetu,
might end the va by midsummer, and thus might render a great ser.
vice to civilization. tell the tale as it was told to me. There were
such external and internal marks of truth that feared that it might be
the truth"
When asked why he had not investigated the rumor, Gore hde his
predicament only the more phful by replying that he had II o evidence
that he would be taken into the presidents confidence and hence did not
in introducing a resolution that took the truth O: the rumor for granted
Unless Senator Gore is careful he may eventually 70 that line which
separates conscientious work in the senate from sensational horseplay.

MORE DUCKS AND GEESE
THAN FOR MANY YEARS

The fall sesson on ducks, geese,
brant, snipe, black breasted and gol-
den ployer, greater and lesser yellow
legs, rails, coots and gallinules Is now
open. This season lasts from Septem-
Der IS TO December 1t.
Hunters say that dueks and geese
are more abundant in this region than
during any eason for the past ten
years, and hunters Of Mexico and Au-
drain county are taking full advantage
Of their opportunities.
Up to October 20, this year, pol hun
ters' licenses have been issued By the
County Clerk, while the number issu-
ed to the same date last year totaled
only 1874.
Hunters have feared for Eome years
that the goose in this section was a
thing Of the past, but this season their
fears have been dispelIed. Hunters
claim that the practice Of the people
about the Great Lakes Of taking the
goose and duck eggs during the nest
ing season has been largely the cause
of the scarcity Of this game in the
past several years, but Uncle Sam has
stepped in and practically stopped
this practice.
With cheapest smokeless shells re-
failing at five cents each, a poor shot
naturally feels shaky about shoulder
ing a gun loaded with these high
priced shells and going forth TO slay
the elusive birds, but many hunters
have enough confidence in their shoot
ing ability to risk financial ruin TO 20
a-hunting.
While finances may bar a few from
participation in this great sport, age
does not; John w. Million, Jr., fourteen
years old, is the youngest owner Of a
hunters license, and G. A. Malone, 81
years old, is the oldest.
A few evenings ago a large number
of brants, which are first cousins Of
the ducks, took possession Of the court
house yard for several hours, c%ircling
about among the trees, about ten feet
from the ground, emitting their cries,
much to the excitement of the local
nimrods. Ryland Rodes bagged a fine
goose on the Chicago & Alton pond
this week, further increasing the anx-
iety of the local gun men to go out and
show that they had not yet lost their
shooting ability.
