HAVE PROVED A BOOMERANG

1t only remained for Senator Pntman to visit Carson and explain the
real purposes Of the land bill that has been given his name. to thoroughly
dssipate the impression which Sam Plat, Grant Miller, the Reno Gazette
and the Nevada State Journal have attempted to create in the minds OF
the people that the measure a conceived in iniquty and born in sin"
In his speech in this city Monday night Senator Pttman Eel into
the bill in detail and his Interpretation of it W "a so analytical, so thorough,
and the benefcent purposes of the measure made o apparent that many
Of those who heard him and had come to hear him with prejudiced
minds began to wonder how they had been misled on so important a
question.
In Senator Pittmans discourse he made no attack on those who had
assailed his bill; on the contrary, he proved the bills worth by argument
and showed that the so-cared vicious clauses, ON which so much stress
had been laid, weree established government precedents and without which
no land grant bill had passed congress in forty years. Senator Phtman in
his talk thoroughly and absolutely indicated himself Of the charges that
had been made against him by his political enemies and it goes without
saying that the latter will have a hard time explaining if when they Come
to this city they attempt o reierate the assertions they have made in
other parts of the state and which have been given publicity through the
medium of the Reno daiies.
The assaults o the Phtman land bill have proved a boomerang.

RAILROAD MEN WANT WILSON

Leaders of the four railroad brotherhoods in Cleveland have set in
motion a plan to organize Wilson clubs among the employees at all the
principal terminals Throughout. the country. w. G. Lee, president of the
Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen, has issued a call to all members TO
join the club.
Al meeting will be held to organize a local Wilson club. Using this
slogan: Remember political friends and defeat or enemies" Lee
has called upon members of his organization and all other railroad broth
erhoods in Cleveland to attend the meeting. Lees appeal is as follows:
at is unnecessary to say that if President Wilson is defeated the
eight-hour law will be repealed, or at least amended to meet the views
as publicly expressed by MI. Hughes, and if President Wilson is re-elect-
ed with a working majority in the house and senate he will be in a posi-
ton to carry ut his proposed legislative plan in the interests of the
workers, as the Adamson law is only the beginning of what will be nec
hour day."
The foregoing announcement from the east has aroused much inter-
est in Sparks among the local railroad men who are contemplating a SIM
liar move. Sentiment among railroad workers at Nevadas chief railroad
center is apparently strong for Wilson and Pitman, while it is a practical
certainty that a organized expression of this sympathy will have a very
commanding effect in the election of the Democratic members of the
county ticket.
Sam Platt following the lead of his. worthy examplar, Candidate
Hughes, has substituted criticism for reason in his stump through the
state and it is winning out just as it is winning out with the noisIy
reserved justice. But that is Republican argument this year. Their mu-
milton stores have been 81 thoroughly depleted by Democratic aggression
and accomplishment they lack even the powder to make a noise.
