M'(tRRAN AND FRIENDS
GIVE pI!!MAN COLD COMFORT
(special to the Silver statel

AODGCldl III IllG OilNCl
CARSON CITY, Oct. 24.-Justice
MeCarran presided here last night at
the Pittman meeting and ii was uni
versally commented that he refrained
from saying anything in his intro
duetory remarks about the notorious
land grab which the Senator had to
try to explain to the best of his abili-
ty. The anomaly of forcing McCarran
into the position of chairman after he
had denounced the land bill as one
that would be disastrous to the school
interests of the state excited some
criticism and the friends of the jurist
allowed a Democratic secret to leak
out. This was not intended for pub
lie consumption, but it shows that
Judge McCarran is not eager to stul-
tify himself by appearing in flash
light before the voters of Nevada.
1t seems that McCarran was billed
to speak at Goldfield in the interest
of Pittman. How it came that the
Democratic committee came to de-
ceive itself by announcing the appear
ance is not explained, but it is fact
that the party managers went ahead
and made all arrangements even to
engaging a hall for the occasion and
arranging for the preliminary boost
ing. When the cold truth was disclos-
ed to the Judge he baked right there
and declared that he would not be
handled that way or forced to do
something that his conscience revolt
I'd at He was willing to help the par
ty in any other way in his power, but
according to reports, he put his feet
firmly down on the effort to dragoon
him into an obnoxious service. The
outcome was that the meeting was
called off and a strict injunction of
secrecy was laid upon those who
were responsible for the bad break.
Judge McCarran has firm convictions
about the land bill and evidently he
is not going to be placed as an hum
BILE imitator of Wilson in altering his
mind to suit the whims of his party
managers.

The American theatre which has

being constructed of reinforced con-

The heating and ventilating system
at the American is of the most mod

the building being changed every
eight minutes by the means of large
blower which forces the air through
the ventilating pipes which are placed
under the main floor. previously pass

The floor of the auditorium is built
on an inclined plane, which assures
to the public a most comfortable and
perfect vision of the screen from ev-

better class of theatres in our large
cities.
The projection machines are of the

supplied with direct current from a
Westinghouse motor generator sci

GRAND DEMOCRATIC FIzILE
AT NIXON TUESDAY NIGHT

For an illustration of how the Will
son and Pittman campaign has col
lapsed in this section of Humboldt
county one had only to look in at the
widely "touted" Democratic rally"
held at the Nixon opera house Tues
day evening. The announcement that
the meeting would be addressed by
Former Senator Charles Towne and
Congressman William Kent, renegade
Republicans, failed to attract more
than mere corporal's guard. Ii
was the poorest political meeting
held here during the present cam
paign. both in attendance and speak
ing While there was a fair showing
in the gallery, the stage contained the
bulk of the first floor attendance.
Towne's remarks were confined to
a laudation of Wilson and an attack
on Grant Miller, Socialist candidate
for Senator.
who is this man Miller?" dramat-
ically asked the speaker II do not
know him and do not want to know
him"
Grant Miller is an attorney with
in the state than was Towne when he
was elected Congressman from the
Duluth district in Minnesota some 25
years ago. He emigrated to Mime
sofa in the latter SOS or early COS
and before his name was dry on the
registration book secured the Repub-
lican nomination and was elected to
Congress- At the same time John
Lind represented the First Minnesota
district as a Republican. In the first
Brvan campaign both called them
selves Silver Republicans and
from there il was but step to the
Democracy. John Lind was elected
governor by the Democrats for the
sole reason that he is a Scandinavian,
and upon the death of Senator Cush-
man K Davis appointed Towne to fill
the vacancy. He served from Decem-
Der until the Legislature elected a
Senator some time the following
month. but during his short incum-
bency succeeded in fixing" himself
with the great New York corpora
tions, in whose employ he has since
remained at fat salary.
While Towne is generally recog-
nized as possessing "the gift o. CAB"
in an. unusual degree, he is also
known to be erratic, shifty and wob-
bly,, almost as much so as Prof. Will
son.
1t is estimated that out of the small
audience he switched at least dozen
votes from Pittman TO Miller.

BATTLE MOUNTAIN, Oct. pa
The tour of Lander county was COM
pleted tonight here with a rousing
demonstration, prefaced by a convoy
of leading citizens who escorted Platt,
Roberts, Mckay and Moran all the
way from Austin. The town was lit
up with bonfires and TIC local brass
band held forth from the band stand
as the candidates arrived. Miners
and ranchers from Kimberly and
Copper Canyon and other distant
points we're present in large numbers
and the many manifestations of pop
ular approval were equal to the most
enthusiastic of the campaign.
In discussing the land bill Sam
Platt said, Il speak to you as Ne
vadan and, whether l be elected or
not. shall continue to do my utmost
to avert the passage of such calami-
tous legislation. You may as well
auction off the mineral resources of
this state after location and expect
the prospector to develop our mines
as auction off the land and expect
the poor pioneer to continue to set
tie"
Platt closed by declaring that to
relieve the government of federal
lands in Nevada would be to relin-
quish the prospect of getting mill
lions for reclamation. This declara-
ton was a revelation and evoked ap-
plause that continued for some time.
Congressman Roberts reiterated
his conviction that a protective tariff
was vital to this country after the
war and submitted his record as uni
formly favorable to the protection of
every industry in Nevada.
Judge Moran received an ovation.
since this was the first time he had
appeared in public in the town where
he had worked in an humble capacity
twenty-five years ago. Richard Nc
Kay made his usual telling talk.
At Austin International hall was
packed and several scores of people
stood at the back of the room. The
Austin silver cornet band made fine
showing and the town was illuminat-
ed with huge bonfires. Platt delivered
his arguments against the land bill
and treated national subjects in an
entertaining manner, but Roberts
made a decided hit when he said,
"they send dudes out here from the
postoffice department to insist on
such meager service that the depart
ment shall show a profit and, if a
postmaster getting six dollars and
seventy cents a year from cancella-
tions does not work twelve hours a
day they want to discontinue the Of
fee"

COOPER BROTHERS GIVE
GOOD SHOW TO BIG HOUSE

The strident strains of "Claripe,"
which is a calliope built on Ford
auto, heard on Bridge street at one
o'clock this afternoon, announced the
fact that Cooper Bros. show had
reached town. The tent was pitched
at the old circus grounds and the af-
ternoon performance was witnessed
by a good-sized crowd. The features
of the entertainment were James Ir-
win, in trapeze act, Miss Ella Har-
ris, the "iron- jawed" woman, and
three clever clowns. and the trained
animals. The elephant exhibited an
almost human intelligence. while the
trained goats went through their va
rious acts in a manner that reflected
great credit on the trainers.
