SCIENCE SAYS so
Marked increase in diseased teeth

Harriet Vittum, Secretary Wom-
ans City Cuba Chicagoan told
that degeneracy is on the increase
and one cause, germ diseases, at once
reverts to our transportation. If we
wished purposely to spread human
germ diseases, could we devise a
more expeditions way than to pack
vast crowds of people in close con-
tact, as we do in our surface and ele-
waited cars during rush hours every
day of the week? And isn't it reason
able to suppose that if we improve
transportation we thereby reduce
germ diseases to a definite, reckon
able extent?
George Perkins, President Interna-
tional Cigarmakers' Union-We
found out long ago that the cigar
maker who had an eight-hour day
went outdoors and got more fresh
air. into his system than the fellow
who had a 10-hour workday. With
the shortening workday there has
been steady lessening of consump-
ton in our membership. Statistical
tables show it beyond dispute. Long
working hours is the cause of several
of the 20 national dangers.
Aid. William E. Rodriguez of Coun-
Gil Health Committee-There are
plenty of cases known of men gone
insane from worry of being out of
work and hunting a job. Steps to-
ward solving the unemployed prob
lem reduce insanity. Insane hospitals
of Illinois hold hundreds of victims
of speeding-up in factories, low
wages that were desperately short of
meeting household needs and our
chaotic industrial system which. NAV

GENERAL GIVES
AN IMPORTANT OPINION

Attorney General Thatcher has
rendered the following opinion in
reference to petitions of independent
candidates for office:
Attorney General Thatcher con-
tues to receive letters of inquiry
asking for Interpretation of differ
ent sections of the new election laws
One OF the recent inquiries has to dc
with the right of convention dele
gates to sign petitions of indepen-
dent candidates. The attorney-gen-
eral holds that delegates to state or
county conventions have no right to
sign any petitions and that for them
to do so would invalidate the petit
ton. Likewise the Encouragement
holds that any person who has sig
nilied his intention of going before
a convention for nomination is bar
red from signing an independent
candidates petition. 1t also is held
by the attorney-gen that dele
gates to county conventions may
come before hte conventions for par
ty nomination to office.
Independent candidates, under
the new law, in order to get their
names on the ticket must file their
petitions on or before September 5,
Independent candidates also will not
be allowed to use the name of any
political party in existence at the
time Of the last election. Reno
Gazette.

STATE VALUATION
UP TO $l75,0O0,0O0

Because the state tax rate this
year is 46 cents Ca decrease of II s
per cent from last years rate). it
Will be necessary to bring the assess
ed valuation of property in the state,
for the purpose of raising state rev.
enue up to 100000, as against
Sl52,O0O,000 last year There will
be an increase of 143 per cent in
general valuations this year.
The state board of equalization
composed of the assessors OF the 16
counties, the members of the state
tax commission and the governor as
chairman, will convene at Carson
next Monday to look over and revise
the assessment rolls of the different
counties. In case the assessment
valuations decided upon by the diff
ferent assessors fail to raise the re-
quired estimates revenue steps to
take care of the probable deficiency
will be taken by the board.
This year the assessors have been
instructed to levy on 80 per cent of
the total value of all property sub
ject to tax. Last year assessments
were levied on 20 per cent of the val
uation. The state board holds its
session from August 21 till the first
Monday in October
In 1912 the total assessed valua-
tion in the state was SOL 900 900 and
the state tax rate that year was Sc
cents.-Reno Gazette.

JAMES RYAN WILL
RUN FOR COMMISSIONER

In this issue appears the an
nouncement of James Ryan, who will
be candidate for reelection to the
office of county commissioner on the
Democratic ticket. Mr. Ryan is a
rsideut Of Caliente and is one of the
largest property owners and taxpay-
ers in the county. He is now serving
his third term as commissioner and
the fact that he has never had any
opposition is proof that his services
in the conduct of the county's bust
ness affairs has the approval of the
people. OF course, no one can tell
now whether or not he will have op-
position this year, but at the present
time there is no indication that a
candidate will be presented by the
Republican party, or Socialist party,
for the short term ommissionership
and II we were to make a prediction
as to what will happen on convention
day he will receive the endorsement
of the opposing parties-at last by
not presenting candidate for this
office.

NO MOBILIZATION
OF NEVADA TROOPS

There will be no mobilization of
troops in Nevada, the order received
August Bird from the war department
for mobilization of troops IN Il is
st tie having been revoked. Tho fC.
lowing order issued from Adjutant
General Sullivan's office on the 11th
inst. explains the situation:
AN order dated August 3, 1916,
has been received from the war de-
partment at Washington. Said or
der is general, in that it applies to
all states and provides that in view
of the desirability for the resump-
tion of the deliberate and careful or
ganization of new units, particularly
with reference to their permanency
the previous authority given the gov.
ernors of the states to move organic
ed militia to mobilization points is
revoked.
Nevada, at the present time, has
sufficient recruits for more than one
troop of cavalry, but said recruits
are from the several counties of the
state, thus precluding assurance o.
the permanency of troop organiza
, tions, which is required by the ordel
above referred to.
Orders will issue from this de
partment today for the discontinu
ance OF recruiting

Official Count Of the
Primary Election Ballots

The primary election is over. The
statewide canvass made by Key Pitt
man and Pat McCarran for the Dem
ocratic nomination for United States
senator has resulted in the former
winning to his side an overwhelming
majority of the delegates to the COM
ing state convention and no doubt
will be the Democratic nominee. AS
far as the Republicans are concerned
the returns appear to give Sam Platt
the best of the argument; yet his op-
ponents are not willing to concede as
much. Both Messrs. Howe and Nor
cross insist that Platt does not have
a majority of the delegates to the
Republican state convention pledged
to him; while on the contrary, Platt
claims that he has at least sixty del
egates who will support him for the
nomination--possib more. At any
rate the convention will settle the
matter and until then the three can

PHIL MATHEWS WILL BE
CANDIATE FDR COMMISSIONER

1t has been rumored for sometime
that Phil. Mathews, one of the lead
ing citizens of the county and high
ly respected resident Of Panaca will
ask the Democratic County conven-
tion for the nomination for county
commissioner-long term. This has
been fully confirmed by his an
nouncement, which appears in to-
days issue of the Record. Mr.. Math-
ews has been resident of the county
for many years; he is an extensive
property owner and taxpayer. The
fact that he has been successful in
his private business career would in
dicate that he would be successful
in the conduct of the business af-
fairs of the county. He needs no in
PRODUCTION to the voters of the coun-
ty; for he is we'll and favorably
known to all. Ii nominated and
elected, Mr. Mathews promises to
give the county the best that is in
him in the way of an economic anc
businesslike administration.

didates will be in the fight
To offset the claims of his oppon-
ents, Platt has been wiring the var
ious delegates with the hope of gain
ing an expression as to where they
will stand when the convention
meets.
AS far as Lincoln county is con-
cerned, there will be split delega-
ton. f. Kahn is known to have
strong pro-Platt tendencies, but has
made no straight out pledges to the
man who came within Al votes of
wrestling the toga from Senator New
lands two years ago. M. l.. Lee is
pronouncedly for Norcross.
Pat McCarran, the opponent of
Senator Pittman, gave up the fight
early after the returns came in and
has wired the latter that he will sup
port him in the coming election and
will be subject to call in the matter
of making campaign speeches.

NEVADA CAVALRYMEN

1t is probable that the men who
enlisted in the Nevada cavalry with
the expectation of seeing war service
on the Mexican border will join the
Utah or California cavalry units of
the national guard. Recruiting Of
ficer Curry at Reno has been notified
by Adjutant General Wedgewood of
Utah that the Nevada men will be
accepted, individually, by the Utah
cavalry. Adjutant General Thomas

to munitions of war and would go
back TO the very first production OF
metals and other material. The pro-
vision was finally amended in caucus
limiting the tax to those directly sell
ing materials to or manufacturing
material for the manufacturers of
munitions of war and reducing tax
to five pee cent on the net profits de-
rived from such sale to manufacture
ers of munitions. This provision
exempts all mines because none of
the mines sell their product directly
to munition factories. Tax was lin
tied to one year after the war is over
through efforts of the western sena-
tors.
1t is considered great victory for
western senators. Mr.. Kitchin, leader
of the majority in the house, declares
he will not stand for senate provis-
ion. The most bitter fight will be
waged between the conference of the
two houses when bill goes to confer
ence. Senator Pittman's amendment
to allow the mines to Offset the en-
tire value of the ore taken out dur
ing the year measured by it's value
in the mine instead of only five per
cent of the value at the mine as de-
duction from the income tax figuring
amount of depletion was allowed.

Especial to The Record J

WASHINGTON, d. c., Aug. 16.-
The Democratic caucus has campbell
ed its work and today Senator Sim
mons, chairman of the committee, re-
ported to the senate the revenue bill.
The chief fight in the caucus revolv-
ed around the tax on raw material
that goes into the manufacture of
munitions of war This fight was
led by Senator Pittman of Nevada as
sisted by all of the western and a
number of the southern senators. The
bill as it came from the house, pro-
vided for tax upon the manufacture
of all munitions of war and a fur
ther provision taxing every person
smelling copper ore or copper con-
centrates in rising percentage upon
the gross receipts derived from the
sale of the product. The committee
struck out the house provision with
regard to copper and inserted a tax
OF ten per cent on net profits derived
from the sale of any mineral or other
material which eventually went into
the manufacture of munitions of
war. 1t was contended in the Demo-
cratic caucus that this provision
would tax every seller of every min
eral or material that finally went in
