HORACE A. CAMPBELL

Tried in the fire" is the slogan of
the firm of Campbell and Kelly, two
of the most loyal citizens that Tono-
pah possesses. When their foundry
was destroyed last year, due to the
fact that the town. while taxing
them, refused to furnish them with
fire protection, there came two fat
tering offers to rebuild in other
towns. One was a bonus from Gold
field another from Reno. The part
ners considered the offers, as they
naturally would. No offer Of help
came from the Tonopah people, but
they decided to rehabilitate their
establishment here, and they did.
Horace A. Campbell, a member Of
the firm, is a candidate for short
term commissioner and he will make
worthy one, applying to county
matters the same methods of bust
ness that have made a success of
his own affairs A rugged, honest,
intelligent man, he will not be a
party to any clique or clan in the

THOMAS LINDSAY

There are many qualities required
OF one who fills the office Of county
commissioner Each Of these desid-
erata are to be found in Thomas
Lindsay. He possesses the integrity
and forcefulness inherited from his
Scotch ancestry, as well as the canny
business methods and practices Of
economy that follow the lineage even
after generations in the United
States. In his business career he
has had much to do with freight
rates over desert routes, and as these
are largely dependent upon the con
dition Of the highways, he is a good
roads advocate ana it is said that he
knows how they should be con
strueted and maintained. Trust Tom

COLOMBIA PROTESTS
TO THE UNITED STATES
ny Associated PressD

WASHINGTON, Nov. 2.-Colombia
has protested to the United States
against the new canal route treaty
with Nicaragua, 1t became known last
night, on the ground that the grant
ing of 80 year lease to this govern
ment by Nicaragua of Great Corn
and Little Corn islands is a denial of
Colombian sovereignty in those
islands. Colombia claims that the
islands, though recently subject to
Nicaraguan administration, are part
of her territory under the Cedula of
November 80, 1903, issued by the
king of Spain to demarcate the vari-
GUS Spanish provinces in the new
world. The islands are not claimed
to be of any especial value except
strategically. They lie about 10 miles
off the coast and have about 1000
population. Some time ago Honduras,
San Salvador, Costa RIGA and Guate
mala protested against the Nicaraguan
treaty on the ground that it infringed
their rights on Fonseca bay and San
Juan river. The United States has
not accepted their protests and the
award of the Central American court
in their favor has been disregarded
by Nicaragua,
