NEVADA INDUSTRIES
PROTEST PROHIBITION

\ couple of days ago il was re-
ported that Governor Boyle had
wired the president urging national
prohibition during the continuance of
the war; and also urging the passage
OF the provision that prohibited the
use of farm products in the manu-
facture OF liquors.
The governor is now on his way TO
attend conference of governors at
Washington and II IL reported in in
press dispatches that this conference
will urge the prohibition step and
the amendment 10 the draft bill re-
garding the use OF grain for liquor
purposes.
The United Nevada Industries, a
Nevada corporation, has sent the
following wire to the president re-
garding the situation:
The President OF the United States,
Woodrow Wilson. Washington. ID. C.
Your Excellency:
The utterances conveyed to you by
the Honorable Emmett ID. Boyle, COVER
nor of Nevada. asking for national
prohibition, do not speak the senti-
ments OF Nevada: therefore we pray
you in your wisdom-knowing that
you will not let the minority govern
the majority-to consider our wishes
as well and not grant national prohi-
bitioD, thereby working innumerable
sufferings and hardships on loyal and
true Americans whose livelihood
would be taken from them.
Nevada stands first proportionately
in its quota of enlistments but that
Is not due to those who ask national
prohibition of you now. The enlist
ments have come from our class of
people who are just as loyal and pa
triotic AZ any in Nevada and no mat.

the campaign against Chancellor Won
BethInann Hollweg is again in full
swing.
The conservatives have adopted
resolutions attacking the chancellor
and censoring the government for

The resolutions express concern at
the growing influence of the socialists
whose peace day making efforts are
declared to be leading Germany TO
the brink OF ruin
The premier is accused of sailing a
course prescribed by the socialists.
The Berlin correspondent of a Ham,
burg paper, in long survey of the
situation declares that the political
life of Germany is now passing
through an era of strife and differ
ences OF opinion on external and in
ternal questions which are growing
more lively and of broader dimen.
tions.
The correspondent says that dis.
satisfaction with the governments

that its reticence on the peace terms

picions and antagionism.

U-Boat Terrors

WASHING TON, May 3.-While the
members of the entente missions here
share the alarm OF American officials
at the growing inroads that the Ger
man submarines are making, they
do not regard the situation as in any
sense fatal.
IL means, in their view, a period of
very great self denial and further re-
strictions. but they do not credit in
the least any opinion that 1t is certain
to mean starvation or the loss OF the
war.
They are counting on ships. men
and food from the United States and
possibly the American inventive geni.
Gus to outweigh the U.boat terrors.

Major Luce says many opportuni-
ties for rapid promotion are open in

dent relatives. The sanitary troop
made an enviable record for itself on
the Mexican border. 1t was at full
