THE FLU IN YERINGToN.

There have been no alarming devel-
opments in the influenza situation
here, and a strict quarantine is be-
ing maintained so there will not be.
The news from the outside is so bad
that every one is hoping to be spared
like trouble.
Mr.. and Mrs Hironymous received
word Monday afternoon that their
son Ray was very low with the dread
disease. Mrs. Hironymo{is left at
once for Reno, enroute to Camp Ere
mont where he is stationed. Mr.. Hi
ronymous and Mr.. Phipps accompan-
led her as far as Reno. Latest reports
were that he is better.
Mrs. Mabel Hillygus has it very
bad, reports having come that she
had succumbed, but they were con-
tradicted later
Mr.. and Mrs. Frank Hanson and
little son have been very low with it
according to a message received by
Elmer Thursday. Frank is on the
mend.
Word was also received that Frank
Gallagher was very i'll but he too has
been reported better.

sion of those powers. 1t is only nee
essary to point to the educational sys-
tenn OF other states to know that the
best organized and unified school sys
TENS are administered by school Off
Gals where powers are carefully con-
trolled by proper checks, and who are
always directly Responsible to the
people. | must stand against the as
sumption that the Nevada deputies be-
long to a sacred species OF officials.
They need controlling by public senti-
ment just as does any other official
in America. This is one OF the die
tates OF the American government.
8. - Politics in Our School System.
Another phase OF the Nevada school
system which requires a special bit
OF remedying is its political side. The
deputies are nominated by the state
superintendent I hey in turn select a
great majority OF the teachers for the
state and appoint all the vacancies on
school boards = which are many. In
its makeup this scheme of things has
all the essential elements OF political
machine of statewide extent.
Potentially it IS there with ali of its
secret powers whether il is always in
operation or not Whether this piece
OF machinery is used in utter sincerity,
or as means of self-preseryation on
the part of the deputies, or as a per-
sonal machine for retaining office, the
fact remains that the possibility OF
such 4 machine exists. For that rea-
son, if for no other, the system which
allows OF that possibility III connection
should be eliminated root and branch.
If the machine has not already been
put into operation il is only matter
of time when il vii be i'll full swing to
the utter detriment of our schools.
| believe that the time is here for
Nevada to arise in her electoral might
and shake off school system that is
autocratic in form and which harbors
the deadening elements OF machine
politics.

Henderson and the
War Minerals Bill

The following comments on
Senator Henderson's War
Minerals Bill are taken from
the Mining and Scientific
Press OF September %.
III the house wishes to
demonstrate that it is truly
representative body, it will
reject the mere pretense OF a
war minerals bill sent TO it
from the Senate.
The Henderson bill favors
only the rich, and in its oper-
atoms keeps the poor man
from obtaining an outlet Tor
his ores.
Under the Henderson
Bill man must first interest
bureau or whatever gov
eminent official may be chos-
EN- on contracting for the out
put OF a mine.
1T interposes a bureau be-
tween the citizen and 'the
government. There is moth
ing a plain democrat hates
worse than bureaucracy
because it is not democratic.
The bill proposed in the
house (the one thrown over
board in the Senate for the
Henderson BID was essen
TALLY a peoples bill, for the
good OF the people. The
Henderson Bill is for those
who can get the ear OF the
bureaucrats.
1--WE may as we'll have no
bill at all. - If we need a
great output of metals, we re-
quire a measure that will en-
able hosts OF prospectors to
produce and ship ores; if we
do not, the Henderson Bill.
which admits OF exclusive
contracts without affording a
competitive market, is to be
condemned for the abuses
possible under its terms
Does this prove that Hen
derson is the representative
of Big Business?

Over and above the great activity

warships, particularly destroyers, nne
the construction of merchant ships. an
enormous amount of time and labor
has 10 be devoted to repairs. In re
cent speech Sir Eric Geddes sasu:
During one month the number OF war
vessels which needed repairs was.
nearly 1,OOo-that is, in addition to the
100 merchant ships-and that was by
no means an abnormal month Since
the beginning OF the war $1,000 war-

do not include repair work done TO the
