ANNE MARTIN RALLY LAST

The American theatre was filled by
a quiet, thoughtful crowd last even

The speakers of the evening, Miss

of oratory and good hard common
sense, as she discussed the several
planks of her platform.

according to the Gazette, coming di-
rect from Washington and accom-
panied by Mrs. Roberts. He will begin
his campaign at once.
The congressman is in splendid
health and looks it. He said he was
glad to be back in his home state and
that he intended to lose no time in
getting out and seeing the voters.
The heavy business in the house of
representatives had kept him busy
and had made it impossible for him
to get out to Nevada before this, he
explained. but he was confident the
voters would understand that it was
public duty that had detained him at
his post
Roberts had brief conference with

DEMANDS CITIZENS
SHALL FILL LOAN

For the first time since our entrance
in the war, Nevada appears to be on
the verge of failure to live up to her
traditional reputation as a leader of
all the states in every war activity
our quota in the fourth liberty loan is
only half subscribed and less than a
week remains in which to gather in
more than two million dollars.
The rumors of peace that are in the
air and the hopes of an early termina-
tion of the conflict which has called to
the colors nearly six thousand of our
young men is doubtless responsible
for the relaxation and apathy reflected
in this condition, which. if not cor
rected. will mean Nevadas first and
only great failure.
Do you not know that Germany has
successfully floated eight great loans
that same Germany which stigma
tized America as a nation lacking in
stamina and the capacity for self
sacrifice necessary in a people capable
of conducting great war? Can you
not conceive that Germany's offers of
peace, already practically repudiated
by the government of this country and
her allies. was accurately timed to
produce the effect which is noticeable
in this loan? Is il not plain to you
that now, as never before, when the
German people watch to see the effect
of their intrigue upon us, We should

in the form of more money, more men.
more ships, and heavier and more de-
yastating shellfire than ever before?
The fourth liberty loan spells all of
these things. This is no perfunctory
appeal. 1t is a call to the people of
Nevada, richer in per capita wealth
than the people of any other state.
heretofore more eager and more spon-
taneous in response to every call of
the government than the people of
any other state. Today as patriotic
and as capable of self-saerifiee as
good citizens anywhere, to draw on
their last resources, if need be, to
meet the nations needs.
BY the authority in me vested | call
upon every man. woman and child
within the borders of this state to
exert every possible effort. even to the
extent of mortgaging your direct fu-
ture, to maintain Nevada's superb
record, not only by subscribing to the
full amount of Nevada's quota in this
loan, but in oversubscribing it, as you
have done in every other liberty loan.
Given under my hand and the great
seal of the state of Nevada at the capi-
tol in Carson City. this 18th day of
October in the year of our Lord one

COUNTY COMMISSIONERS OF
ELk0 COUNTY FOUND GUILTY

After a trial lasting eleven days in
the district court, before Judge Emmett
j. Walsh of Goldfeld, who was called
here by Judge Taber, decision was
rendered by the court from the bench
last evening, at the conclusion of ar
guments lasting all the day, finding
the defendants, County Commissioners
H. ]. Jones and ]. G.. Gregory, guilty
and removing them Immediately from
office, says the Elko Free Press.
The decision of the court was
verbal one, and his review of the case
consumed an hour and quarter. TAX
ing the specifications and grouping
them under four headings. The court
pointed out that the state had not
proven clearly many of the specifica-
tions, and that much of the testimony
introduced was not material to the
case, and in fact found for the de-
PENDANTS, exonerating them of the
suspicion that they had profited finan-
cially in any of the transactions.
AS stated in his decision the court
said that the heart of the whole trial
hinged on the specifications that the
commissioners had violated the laws
requiring advertisements for bids
where the amount involved was over
$500, and that it was clearly shown
by the defendants themselves when
they took the stand that, acting under
the advice of the district attorney,
they had allowed bids in excess of
that sum without advertising, and it
was on this specification that his deci-
sion for removal was based.

The central figure of this great

Her resurrection. the agonies of her

1888 Pass Mental Tests,

The number of candidates known to
have passed their mental examinations
for admission to the Naval Academy
Is 1893. Seven hundred and seventy
of these we're successful at the last
examination, and the others at the
previous examination. The papers Of
a number of enlisted men who took
the examination on shipboard at for.
eign stations are still to reach the
Academy. AS all the candidates were
warned to have a physical examina-
ton by competent surgeon before
applying for admission, the number of
failures for physical reasons should
be small, and the new class ought to
reach a membership of 1000. Even
If it falls a little short of this, it will
be by far the largest class which has
ever entered the institution.
