THE OCTOBER DRIFT.

Sundry anti-WIlson newspapers,
among them the Washington Post. ad-
nit heavy drift to Wilson during the
last half OF October. Is the reason far
to seek?
When Mr.. Hughes allowed himself
TO be put forward as a candidate for
the Republican nomination an element
of his party headed by the New York
Tribune urged him TO speak up as to
his views upon the KaiseTists in
America. He declined TO do so. After
the nomination he remained close-lip.
ped despite an avalanche of demands.
from his friends and from advocates
OF President Wilson, that he make his
views known. During the course OF
the first half OF the stump campaign
issue as II he had taken the vow OF
silence upon that subject. Talking
like n soap-box agitator upon matters
less vital. generalizing TO the point OF
vagueness in his scolding attacks upon
the Administration, he allowed to re
main unanswered questions which
levelheaded Republicans as well as
Democrats said must be answered. but
TO this day he has never shown that he
is aware of the existence of any such
thing as a hyphen. Finally. as the
campaign was drawing 10 a close he
began lamely to say what he would
have done in certain circumstance had
he been President His late and lame
explanations OF what his course would
have been did not prove convincing to
the many independents that had been
waiting for him 10 explain himself be
fore deciding finally how they would
vote.
The drift To Wilson in October
marks the closing of Mr.. Hughes
stump tour, certainly the most inef-
fective that any candidate for Presi- /
dent has made. and assuredly the most
insincere.
lt is not an uncommon occurrence 10 T.
meet a Republican who says frankly /
that he has not been able TO make up
his mind to vote for Mr.. Hughes, be- !
cause Mr.. Hughes has failed 10 make II /.
plain that his dominant American I,
ism" means anything.

RAILROAD MEN
FAVOR SAUNDERS
AN APPEAL TO RAILROAD EN-
PLoYEEs IN BEHALF OF A
TRUE FRIEND OF THE RAIL.
ROAD MEN OF NEVADA

We, the undersigned, were employed
by the Tonopah & Goldfield r. Il. Com.
pany, and continued in such employ
until the strike occurred on that road
in 1910.
You will no doubt recall that every
employee OF the Tonopah & Goldfield
r. r. ceased working when the order
to strike was received. You will also
perhaps recall, that number OF in
sidious scabs and strike-breakers were
imported 10 take the places of these
strikers. These despised traitorous
scabs were immediately armed and
put 10 work in the places OF the strik-
ing Brotherhood men, Our present
State Treasurer. Ed Malley. was
Sheriff of this County when this strike
occurred. and he Immediately arrested
the scabbing strike-b breakers, and
charged them with carrying concealed
weapons
When these law.breakers were
brought before the Justice OF the
Peace of Tonopsh. Judge J. \. Sanders.
the present candidate for Justice of
the Supreme Court. volunteered his
services TO prosecute these armed
scabs. and obtained conviction as fol.
lows:
George Van Hoeston. (scab). Found
guilty and sentenced 10 serve 80 days
in the county JAIN. and pay u fine OF
$50 and costs OF the action
l.. Smith. (scab). Found guilty and
sentenced TO serve 80 days in the
county Jail and pay fine OF s75 and
costs OF the action.
r. 4. Davis, (scabJ. Found guilty
and sentenced to serve 80 days in the
county jail and pay fine of $50 and
costs OF the action.
All these cases were vigorously
prosecuted by Judge J. 4. Sanders,
without expectancy of reward or re-.
enumeration. His one desire was. TO
help the striking Brotherhood men,
punish the armed violators or the law
and humanity.
From the foregoing, you will readily
see, that Judge J. a. Sanders has thor.
ouShly demonstrated his friendship
and interest f. the Railroad Brother
hoods, and il l.. with the recollection
OF his loyalty and answering fidelity
to the Railroad Brotherhoods. that we
now make this appeal TO all railroad
employees. TO use their utmost en-
deayors 10 insure his election a. Judge
OF the Supreme Court. |
BY your allegiance and support at
this time. when he is in need Of your
help, the railroad men OF Nevada. will
demonstrate that they are true AMI
appreciatiYe 10 one who was their
friend in the time OF trouble and dis
tress.
We desire 10 impress upon you. that
this appeal Is being mailed to the
brotherhood men throughout the state.
without the knowledge or consent OF
Judge Sanders. for we feel. that Il is
Incumbent upon us to try and repay
In small way the duty all the Broth

TALLEY.HAWKINS.

At the Central Hotel Thursday night
al $3.50, Rev. A. F. Stahl united in
marriage Charles f.. Talley and Miss
Minnie Lee Hawkins. There is an in
teresting coincident in connection
with this marriage. Mr.. Talley's first
wife was a Minnie Lee Hawkins. Aft
er her death a few years ago, he saw
the name Minnie Lee Hawkins an
nounced as a teacher In Fleming coun
ty. Being attracted by the name, he
looked up the person. The acquaint-
ance grew to a courtship and resulted
in Mr.. Talley being united in marriage
a second time TO a bride of the same
name, though of no kin or acquaint-
ance to his first wife. Charles L. Tai
ley is highly respected farmer of
the Mayslick neighborhood. After a
few days stay in Cincinnati he will
