What do see there cleaning bright

1t is the flag "Old Glory, lad
Who's motto is right over might.
] see its stripes so red and white,
What do they mean to you, my sir
They speak for those who here have
died
And of freedom and human right.
o! look at tired, white and blue,
Sir, what do those colors mean te
your
They speak: "Be true, be loyal too
Thy nations honor rests on you"
There to the winds and to the world
She tells the history that some books
tell;
Speaks also Of thy country's fame
And of those who bravely as patriot.
fell.
Yes, for all these things she stands,
And more than that the weak de-
tends;
Her fortunes too, to the needy lends,
She wants all nations true friends.
Then, now to the winds unfurl this
flag,
Let it to the world new story tell !;
Let her in the years yet to come,

Such grandeur name as you possess

THE OTHER FELLOW SAYS
ONE OLORE GENTLEMAN
SHOWS UP

Herr Wilhelm Won Hearst,
anti-British, un-American and
pro-German, has succeeded at
last in employing counsel to re-
present and defend Hearst and
Hearstism in New Mexico. The
Hearst attorney in New Mex
leo is F. c. Wilson of Santa Fe.
Mr.. Wilson made a speech at
Estancia Thursday. A part of
that speech was in defense of
Hearst. Mr.. Wilson'S hearers
naturally assumed that he was
speaking as a private citizen.
He refrained from telling his
large audience that he was an
attorney who had been paid to
represent Hearst New Mex
leo War News.
This discloses the niger in
the woodpile in the case of Mr..
Wilson. In the case of Judge
Hanna, the colored gentleman
is still Observation-Disclosures

THREE CANDIDATES-MAYBE

Unconfirmcd rumors are to the ef-
feet that Edward M. Otero will enter
the race for the Republican nomina-
tion for governor.
Mr.. Otero is wen qualified and #
he does GO after the honor will be
n strong candidate both before the
convention and with the electorate.
Should MIR. Otero enter the con-
test it is a good guess that the CON
vention votes will be nearly equally
divided between Gov. Lindsey, Sen,
Pankey and himself, and that it will
take perhaps more than one ballot
to decide between them. All three
are unquestionably able to fill the
position and all are good r publ
cans and will accept the will of the
convention c~heerfully.

D A CANDIDATE

Gov. W. e. Lindsey today announ
ces that he will be a candidate for
the Republican nomination to sue
coed himself.
The governor sets out in his an
n~ouncement many potent and logi'
cal reasons why he should be select.
ed to continue the War Admins
tration.
No argument is necessary to prove
that Gov. Lindsey has been a care
full, competent, thoroughly patriotic
and honest executive, and now that
he has cleared the political situa-
ton by declaring himself there is no
doubt but what strong support will
be accorded him by many Republi-
cans throughout the state.

NEW RULE, AND o O

The old rule of early colonial day.
that IF any man will not work, Meth.
err shall he eat" has not proven prac.
ticsble Of application in these days
of complex social conditions. There
are too many ways by which MN
can get something to eat withou,

rule is one that can be enforced, and
it should be.

TOO LATE

The belated interest which Presi.
dent Wilson takes in seeing the spf-
frage amendment adopted by Cong
ess would indicated that in this mat
ter, also, he has been absolutely dis
illusioned. 1t is also a pretty good
sign that he foresees the loss Of Con-
gress to the Democrats in the fall
elections. Eleventh hour repentances
in politics are generally induced by
expediency.

PANKEY FOR GOVERNOR

Senator B, F. Pankey was a visitor
here recently. Friends of the Sen
ator are booming him for the Gov
ernorship. Senator Pankev is the
logical candidate to head the Repub-
lican ticket this fall. The Senator
is a man who has many fast friends
and would draw heavily not only
from the independent ranks but from
the Democrats as well. His public
service can o be assailed and has
been in the interests of the people

Germany's tribute levied against
stricken Belgium has been raised
from s0,O0oyO0 0 to 60,000,00o francs a
month. Herr Wilhelm Won Hearst
has pointed out that it is rather
curious that our Allies should be
making such heavy drafts upon our
treasury, when Germany alone is able
to finance her own war needs. Pos.
sibly the distinguished advocate for
Germany will be shocked to learn
that Germany is levying against any
other country.

SOLDIER MORALE AIDED
BY 'SMILEAGE' COUPONS

Before the days of "Smileage" a
soldier in camp had no place to
turn for amusement after his te-
dious days work, except that
amusement which could be derived
by his own ingenuity. There were
TO theaters in camps and, being re-
stricted to camp grounds, he could
not seek outside pleasure. This
confinement naturally dissatisfied
him, and the very fact of his being
dissatisfied made him a harder
soldier to control. That old say
ing ''all work and no play" could
never be made more applicable to
s situation. When he went on his
furlough he mentioned the lone
illness and solitude. His folks no.
ticed his depression: Steps we're
taken to cheer him, ideas given,
and then came the big idea Smile
age" a world of pleasure suggested
in the very name. Everything is
changed, mirth substituted for sor-
row, ambition for dependency and
last but not least, enthusiasm for
knocks.

figures. giving the ages and the
number of men registered in each,

DRAFT tvAOER
SHOOTS SHERIFF
CHURCHILL OFFICIAL SHOT As
HE ATTEMPTS TO MAKE
ARREST

Sheriff Mark Wildes of Churchill
county was shot but not seriously In
jured yesterday afternoon near the
old camp of Jessup in Churchill
county by Paul Walters, said to be a
draft evader for whom Wildes was
searching.
A posse of rs citizens of Lovelock
and vicinity set out to hunt for
Wildes and up to 8 o'clock had not
located him. Indian trailers started
out this afternoon to make a search
in the hills around Jessup and Fan
ming, but according to information
given the citizens by Wildes, Wal
tiers was making for the hills as fast
as he could the last time he saw
him.
The shooting took place at a point
a mile and a half north and west OF
the Overland trail grade at its
est point to Jessup, an old deserted
mining camp. Wildes and a guide
left Fallon Saturday to search for
Walters and came upon him and a
companion, named Temple, while
driving their automobile along the
road.
Wildes stopped the machine and
he and the guide started to meet
Walters. The sheriff questioned
Walters as to his identity and after
admitting that his name was Wal
tiers, Sheriff Wildes informed him
that he was under arrest. This
statement was answered by a shot
from Walters and he then took W
shots at the guide, but missed.
Walters was called in the first
draft at Fallon last August and new
err appeared for examination. His
order was No. 10.-Reno Gazette.
