FORMER GOVERNOR ODDIR
VISITOR HERE YESTERDAY

Tasker L. Oddie of Reno, Republi-
can nominee for governor. was an ar
rival here Thursday from Ely. He
left on No. yesterday for Reno.
Oddie has made a trip covering
practically the entire state and is very
confident that he will be the next gov
ernor of Nevada. There is not the
least doubt in my mind" he said. "but
that the state will go dry at least two
TO one" He found everywhere that
the people appreciated the fact that
he has always stood for prohibition
and finds that they have not forgotten
that he went down to defeat on his
fight against gambling and other lib
eral measures four years ago.

Since early in the summer the pub
lie of Nevada has been told repeatedly
by the Democratic press why Roberts
should not be elected During the
primary election this was impressed
daily upon the people of this state
Means were used that even the con-
servative Democrats considered unfair
at the time and many so announced
The result was such that the thinkers
and those who give political situations
real study, were confident that the
old habit of besmirchins was to be
relegated to the back yard of the polit-
ical junk heap.
In spite of this public rebuke in Ne
vada, the same propaganda is being
Haunted in the faces of the Nevada
voters. The result will be in accord
with the previous decision; the people
do not reverse their decisions over
night.
There are many reasons why Rob-
erts should be sent to the United
States senate. In the first place there
is problem ahead for the American
people that will require men of more
than few months experience in the
halls of congress.
Following peace, which seems to be
in the making, the big questions OF
re-adjustments of conditions at home
are 70 be met. Is there more fitting
man to take up this burden and help
than Roberts, who has had eight years
of solid experience in the formation
of laws. both of state and national
importance?
There is to be enacted for the bene-
fit of the returning boys laws to open
lands; laws to provide for the future
of the boys frdm over there. During
the experienced of Congressman Rob
erts he has come in touch with the
men of the nation who are in accord
with such movements. In the upper
house, where Congressman Roberts
has many political and personal
friends, this acquaintanceship is to be
of more than passing value.
The fact that E. r. Roberts is in
touch with more Nevada people than
any congressman this state has ever
sent to the lower house of congress is
a problem that the Democratic pub
licity bureau. and the leaders in the
fight against him, have been combat
ing without results.
When a Nevadan wants some par
ticular favor, even of the smallest inn
port, this is given immediate attention
by the Nevada representative.
When a community wishes some
civic Improvement from governmental
aid it is placed in the hands of
Roberts. Why? Because they get
action.
Through the action of Congressman
Roberts hundreds of Nevada people
have benefited materially. He has
not been Haunting advertised national
problems in the faces Of the men and
women of this state, but has been
doing their work and with results.
The Democratic press has en-
deavored, through exaggerated state
ments, to belittle the truth in every
day occurrences. The best proof of

Germans Striking For Victory
Before Allied Reserves Arrive

IAr.s, May 31.--Increasing violence
marks the progress of the fighting
south OF the Aisne. The Germans are
fighting against time and are throwing
every ounce of weight of man power
into the struggle. On the center the
enemy again pushed forward. but his
efforts to broaden his advancing front,
have met with less success. The all
lied wings have been obliged to give
some ground. This action was carried
out slowly and the full price was eX-
acted from the enslny.

in either case the enemy has only won

are not lacking that the advancing
waves shortly will be stemmed.
