NEW HOTEL
At M|NOEN

When the new hctei, now under
construction at Minden, is completed,
that town will have the most modern
hostelry in Nevada, not excepting
Reno or any OF Neyadas large cities.
II. f. DangDerg, who Is erecting
the new hotel. sees a great future for
this section and intends to erect a
hotel building that will care for the
growth that is sure to come. Money
is not to be spared in making the
hotel the best, and from the fire proof
building, to the minute detail of
furnishings, it will be even more that
guests may expect to find in a com
munity the size of Minden.
The building will be OF brick three
stories in height, with elevator
usually found outside of large cities.
The contractors have seven months
to complete the building. but the rapid
Roadway being made by Ward Bros,
who have the contract for the erect
tion of the hotel it is believed thai
the building will be ready for oc-
cupaney far in advance of the speci-
fled time.
The erection of the Minden hotel
calls for the expenditure of a sum in
the neighborhood of $50, ,000and this
large expenditure is evidence that
Mr. Dangberg has explicit confidence
in the future greatness of Minden,
Carson Valley and surrounding ter
ritory.

RUSTLERS TAKE
CATTLE

In the opinion of several of the
leading cattlemen of Carson Valley,
who range their cattle in the Mono
forest reserve. cattle rustlers have
been busy in that locality this year.
The fall roundup was held last
week and about ~ head of cattle have
not been accounted for. II is the
opinion OF the owners OF the cattle
that rnstlers are responsible for the
shortage in the herds. Steps will be
taken to opprehend tie rnstlers al
though this probably will be a diff
cult matter as the snow is from two
TO three feet deep there at the present
time.
When the first losses were discov-
ed in the fall. stockmen were of the
belief that the cattle had strayed over
the ridge into Yosemite Valley but
yaqueros sent to find them failed to
gnde any trace of the lost stock in
the park.

POLITICS ARE
VERY QUIET


The political situation in Douglas
county at the present time is one that
battles the wise politicians. While
some weeks ago it seemed that Plat
would surely go out of here with a
large majority, Democrats now claim
that the fight between Platt and Pitt
man will be close, while the Socialists
are sure that Grant Miller will sur
prise them all when the votes are
counted on November 7th.
With election a little more than a
week away, 1t must be said that the
campaign has been of the most un-
intresting to take place in many n
year. No doubt voters are thinking
Il great deal. especially as regards the
national ticket. but they are standing
ON the street corners and shouting
their conviction. They are deciding
for themselves and are giving the
other fellow the same privilege.
Although the Democratic orators have
made their appeal to the voters on
the strength that Wilson has kept "us
cut of war; and have taken all the
credit for passing several important
measures. the foundation for which
were laid in Congress under Re-
publican administration. the plea is
not catsching many Republican votes
in this neck OF the woods Women,
whc are casting their first ballot, have
been especially appealed tc Trough
this ''he kept You ont of war slogan.
However, they are able to thinl. for
themselves and know that no Presi-
dent OF the United States every &C.
clared war without cause. After the
nee ng Monday night one lad.5 said
Lincoln, the most thought o. l'resi-
dent the United States ever had, or
ever will have, knew war; Mckinley
whose ideals were higher that Wood
row Wilson's, knew war Yet the
American people, worship the memory
OF these two Presidents.
Then there are some Democrats
who can roast the Republicans to a
frazzei, declaring they are all allies
of Wall Street and by their vote will
do their share in fleeing themselves
as well as other American citizens.
Is not Root and Smoot, Lodge and
Penrose the whole Republican party
Pittman said so. and he knows Then

ideals of Woodrow Wilson as being
as high and lofty as the snow-crown-
ed peaks of the Sierras, while some of

they thought Jobs Peak ought to be.
probaly expecting 10 see Woodrow,
crowned and winged, sailing right On
into heaven. Charley said that ii
Hughes was elected. that Awful
Teddy would be the man behind. The
Republicans of course claim, that
this is said to land the German
sAIhtIitdu vote. W lSOH ldlhS on
hyphenated-Americ were anything
but vote getter, and il takes votes
TO elect president.
Barney Moran, candidate for
Supreme Judge will poll big vote
in Douglas county. Barney has a
splendid record and he is exceeding
well known and popular here.
ED Roberts for Congress has big
following in Douglas county and has
always received a handsome majority
He will thus be awarded when the
votes are counted Oh the 7th of No
vember.
Local candidates are just beginning
to nose around a bit and during next
week thing may liyen up. However,
the campaign in, respect to local
fights, will lack great interest.

many had already left the hall TO re-

But the State of California particu-
larly concerns us. The census figures
of 1910 totaled 1902 in the column
Of illiterates. The commissioner OF
elementary schools; DR.. Margaret Shall
lenberger Mcknight, said in the De-
cember California Blue Bulletin, is
sued by the State Department of Edu-
cation, that two-thirds of the litter
ates in the state were foreign-born
whites. THIS explains why the state
stands seventeenth in the literacy col
umn. That is, $4,000 of the litter
ates were born in Italy, Southeast
Europe, German Russia, Armenia,
and other foreign countries. Of the
remaining $4,000 illiterates, the Indi-
ans and MeXicans figure prominently
with the negroes sandwiched in. In
other words, the illiteracy problem of
California is largely problem of as

But how shall the few be discov-

If the boards Of education in the
several districts under the direction

religious body make census of the

Guiding home environment, family
ties, religious faith, political belief,
weaknesses, tastes and peculiarities,
and the influence or combination of

be reached.
When this is done the next step
would be to interest a number of self
sacrificing disposed persons to go
after these in well-defined, syste-
matte manner until all are reached
and given an opportunity to be
taught.
