The statement sent out to the Har-
Dor and Sound press from this meet
I ing, that there was opposition to Gov
ernor Lister among the democrats, and
that such opposition was an issue at
the meeting was absolutely unfounded
so far as could be discovered at the
meeting.
There was no discussion of candi-
dates of any nature, nor any other
sentiment exhibited than the optimis-
tic feeling that the state will go demo
cratic in November. There were but
two ballots taken at the meeting. in
which L. B. Bignold and w. N. Lee
son were contestants for the position
of chairman and F. l.. Morgan and
Fred. Straub for state committeeman
The statement referred to would indi
cate that the losing aspirants for those
places were opposed to Lister, which
if true was not in evidence at the
meeting.

A WILSON LANDSLIDE

1t ought not to be merely a Wilson victory at the polls in Novem-
Der, says the New York World. 1t ought to be a Wilson landslide.
That would be the greatest political blessing that the American peo-
pie could confer upon themselves.
hyphen in American politics, and nee for all put American citizenship
above all foreign intrigue and alien sympathy
To Europe it would be a final proof of American solidarity which
would carry it's effect into all the diplomatic relations of the United
States with the warning nations.
1t would definitely establish progressivism as a forward policy OF
American government, beyond the power of Toryism and reaction to
overcome.
1t would mark the beginning of a new economic order in which
human rights were no longer held subordinate to property rights, and the
labor OF living lei held Of less consequence than the accumulated prod
uct of the labor of dead men.
1t was Jefferson who put the ship of state O the Democratic tack
in the nineteenth century and made possible a government of the people,
by the people and for the people Wilson is rendering the same kind Of
service to American democracy in the twentieth century that Jefferson
rendered in the nineteenth century. Regardless of any mistakes he
makes, regardless of errors of judgment, he is restoring American dem
ocracy and giving government back into the hands of the people to pro-
mote the welfare of all the people, not the welfare of a few of the people.
American democracy, if it is to go forward, cannot permit anybody
to undo what has been done under President Wilson's leadership. 1t
cannot afford to give any man the opportunity to do it. 1t cal take MO
risks with Bourbonism. 1t an make n experiments with reaction.
The highest duty the American people owe to themselves, to their
principles of government and to their ideals of the republic is to give
to the president a popular majority that will be overwhelming.
Make it Wilson landslide!

NEVADA FIRST" M'CARRAN'S MOTTO

There are little men and big men. Men who rise above any little
personal disappointment and, forgetting the sting OF the moment, clasp
hands with their felowmen and work loyalty for the common good.
Again. the other side shows the little man. the nan who lives for him
self alone; the crouch, the self-constituted Moses to, hguratvely, lead
the children of men int the promised land.
Justice McCarran is of the class of big men, the men who believe
that every fellow helping the other fellow represents a splendid sum
total.
At the meeting in Carson City, and also at Reno, Judge McCarran
introduced Senator Pitman, his opponent. in the primaries And the in
PRODUCTION a not the forced, snveling, apologize introduction of the
small man, it was broad of spirit, genuine and loyal.
II want all Of my friends to vote for Senator Pttman," said Justice
McCarren. know Of his work in Washington | know that he is an
active, efficient and trdess toner for the people OF the state Of Ne
vada. His reelection means much for the state of Nevada and be-
speak for him the votes of all my friends who supported me in the pr
mares.'
This is the language of a man bigger and broader than the "litte
politician" Justice McCarran is a student Of world conditions. He is
a lover OF peace and places human rights above property rghts-the
a above the dollar. And as such 4 student OF the economic conditions
prevailing n the world of today he realizes what it means to this nation
to return Woodrow Wilson to the presidency and sustain him with a
Democratic congress.

"Now Senator Phtman has had the advantage of living even farther
vest than did, and he came from we a smaller state than Maine; and
yet he has been able to live down these objections and make himself con-
spicuous among the members of the senate. If he had not earned a re-
election by his own merritt all knew OF him was that he was a man
in harmony with the president and would, if elected, help the president
in the carrying out of his foreign policies and his domestic policies, I
would say that he a entitled to your support, as against any maj who
was not in harmony with the president. So want you to remember
that, in addition to what he has earned by his own merit he is entitled
to your support if you want to aid the president in the work that lies be-
fore him.
"And / want to appeal to you in behalf of the Democratic candidate
for congress; MI. Game is needed in Washington; and remember that
we have not a very large majority in the house, and every one of these
congressman must be reelected II somebody elected in his place; and
we cannot afford, at a time like this, to leave anything undone that we
can do to give the president both a house and a senate in sympathy with
his purpose and his work"-W. J. Bryan.

ITS LAST PLEA

Stripped OF all other issues the Republican party in a lstfr frantic plea
is calling for support because of the pension system it inaugurated in the
days following the Civil al to which system the Democrats offered no
objection except where the practice a riot. A. circular just issued by
the National Republican committee calls attention to the pension bills
passed by that party and concludes with a speech made by a Republican
congressman, who winds up his peroration with the following verse;:
"Words are but leaves:
Deeds are fruits
Words are easy, like the wind,
Faithful friends are hard to find"
The verse, of course, is meant to indicate that the Republican party
is the friend of the great common people, but what benefits have that
class received from the G. 0. p. in recent years. On the other hand,
with it's record Of deeds performed, is not the Democrats party more
entitled to the use o: the phrase deeds are fruits than the Republicans?
In what day n period did the Republican party pass such benehCent laws
is the Democrats in putting on the statute books the Federal Reserve
law. the Rural Credits bill the Ship Purchase bill, the Child Labor BILL
the act creating the Tariff Commission and scores of others?
All this wise legislation has been performed in the three and a half
years the Wilson administration has had control of the government, and
ma OF Nevada.

WHY SHE IS FOR WILSON

am for Wilson because he is a real democrat. That means
that he is for his fellow la at home and abroad. a a German,
and I do not understand how the Germans of this country car fail
see that Mr.. Wilson is their friend, just as he is the friend Of his
fellow mn in all countries. One al always count o his impair
tiahahty-that he will not favor any particular one, because he favors
all. We a see by his acts that he really does this; they may no
always show forth his intent; but if one waits long enough, n finds
that the true intent and intelligence of the highest kind were there
a n intent consonant with love for humanity. His foreign policy alone
would enitle him to reelection. His internal policy, of course, adds SO
much the more to his desrabilty. What he has done gives us al earnest
of what he will do, if O. will only use ones own intelligence to see
through the mists engendered by the present world stuation-Mary FEELS

BE A MAN OR A 0 u

Is it fair and honest O the part of Ed Roberts, Republican candi-
date for congress, o sit O the platform with Sam Plat in his stump
ing tour of the state and listen to the latter denounce the Pntman land
bill as a vicious and dishonest measured?
Mr.. Roberts, when the land bill was before the congressional COM
mhtees, and again n the floor of the house, was to all appearances al
earnest and sincere supporter of the measure and % far as known he Ia
not UP to the present time altered his views.
If the measure a good then, it is good low, and Roberts should
not stultfy himself by remaining silent when it is being attacked in his
presence by Sam Platt for purely political purposes. The bill can too
much to Nevada ito be cried down.
