Billy Burke in Peggy" produced by
Thomas II. Ince.
Peggy is a whirlwind from Ameri-
ca, who bursts into little Scotch
hamlet, and sets everything topsy-
turvy. But, you see, there are a lot
of things in the place that must be
set straight again. It's the only way
of setting them to rights, and Peggy
knows it. Her uncle is a grabbed old
man, and the villagers are for the
most part forlorn lot, not much in
clined either to love or to charity
Peggy is brimming over with both.
She wins the hearts of the little chill
dren, before she has been in the viii
lage a day, and gradually she brings
about a great and wonderful change
in their elders. OF course, there is a
young chap who falls in love with
her-he happens to be the "Meenis-
ter"-and when she has made him
prove that his gospel contains Chris
tianity as well as religion, she gives
herself to him.

NINA, New, Oct. 3.-The triumphal
tour OF the Republican candidates
through Mineral county was compile
minus of the Southern Pacific system,
From Aurora down through the dis
trict Sam Plat. Ed Roberts, Judge
Moran and r. A. Mckay were met by
a succession of enthusiastic audi
ences whose loyalty could not be
questioned. since hundreds rode 20
and 80 miles for the privilege OF
grasping the hands of the candidates
and assuring them they were in hear
ty accord with the principles enun-
ciated by the Republican platform.
Reaching Luning last night, the
party was received with an ovation
that was all the more surprising
since it was known to everybody
that the men of Luning are enjoying
a copper boom and. If anything
should sympathize with the war par
ty in power. That this was not the
case was amply demonstrated by re-
peated assurances that voters were in
earnest about demanding a change in
Washington. Luning has the goods
and enough high grade copper ore
that they need ask no favors of any
party and the voters testified their
appreciation of the party of protec-
tion by responding almost unani
mously to the notice of the meeting
at Nina. the railroad center. There
was not a dissenting voice. and the
railroad boys. including trainmen
locomotive engineers and shopmen
turned out to a man. They not alone
showed by their presence where their
real sypathies were. but they voiced
their approval of the Republican
platform by applauding every senti-
ment uttered by the visitors.
At Luning last evening Sam Platt
provoked a storm of applause when
in speaking of the eight hour law, he
said: II am for permanent and de-
cisive legislative relief for labor that
will guarantee all just demands OF
workingmen. Why did they not ex-
tend the benefits of the eight-hour
day to every workingman engaged in
interstate commercey I rejoice IL the
conductors, engineers. firemen and
brakemen have through this legisla-
ton, secured even little of what
they deserved. but I regret that labor
generally was not remembered"
why didn't the others demand it?"
asked a voice.
That's sample of Wilson's logic" "
said Platt. "He declares his good in
tentions yet ne never moves until his
hand is forced. A true friend would
have given the eight-hour day to all
labor without asking"

TONOPAH, Oct 4.-From 2 o'clock
this afternoon, when the Republican
candidates arrived in Tonopah, until
adjournment of the meeting this even
ing, there was nothing in Tonopah
but one round of applause. Soon af-
ter arriving the party, which consist
ed of Sam Platt, T.. +. Roberts, Judge
Moran and r. A. Mckay, were taken
in tow by the local committee and es-
corted to headquarters of the Women
Voters association, where over two
hundred women assembled Addresses
were made, and in conclusion Mrs
Mayme Schweble, chairman of the
Republican Women's club, spoke feel
ingly about the merits of the ticket
and the marked ability of the candi-
dates.
Tonopah was logged out in its best
bib and tucker Every window car
ried cards of state and national can
didates, flags were profusely dis
played. and in the evening an cleo
trio illumination, supplemented by
red fire and fireworks, notified the en-
tire desert country that Tonopah Re
publicans were giving their candi-
dates the warmest reception ever ac-
corded a political candidate in the
state. Considering that this is the
home town of Platt's opponent the
demonstration was surprising and
visitors commented freely on the en-
thusiasm manifested and the deep in
terest taken in the Republican plat
form.
In the evening a meeting was held
In the airdome, which was filled to
capacity so that scores nad to be
turned away.
Sam Platt was greeted with an ova-
ton before the meeting opened. when
he was observed a cending the plat
form and when Hugh H. Brown in
troduced him as the next Senator
from Nevada, the crowd simply broke
loose in pandemonium. Hugh Brown
presided and took pleasure in intro
ducing Platt as a former classmate
at Stanford and declared his recon-
mendation was from the heart, since
he probably had greater opportunity
for knowing him than any person in
the audience. Plat dealt with the
Pittman land bill, scoring ii unmer-
cifully and at the end of his talk
