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, we're confident that the
! old habit of besmirching 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 a problem ahead for the American
people that will require men of more
than a 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 al home
are TO be met. Is there a 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 from over there. During
the experience 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 +. +. 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 hat 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, ven of the smallest i'm
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
this result is with the working men.
who openly state that they are going
to stand with the man who took up
their small fights and put them
through.
Since the first day that E. E. Roberts
left Carson City on his way to Wash
ington thousands of small favors have
been asked. Every one has been met,
and as senator he will be even In a
better position to continue. not patron

age, but just favors, such as the Nc
yada people expect from the man they
send TO represent them.
The people of Nevada have not been
reared to high and mighty problems.
high brow orations and fireworks.
They live for the most part on the
desert edge. They need much assist
ance in small ways. When the day is
ripe for big things Roberts with his
experience is in a far better position
than any other man in this state to
handle it. His position on committees
will of necessity take him to higher
rank in the upper house. Much must
be done for this state within the next
few years; a man of acquaintance
with u general needs, the needs of
the workers, the farmers, and those
who meet Roberts on the same social
level is the one to send forward to
meet the conditions.
The people have a habit of picking
the man who is part of them, one
whom they can rely upon to undertake
the village necessities, one who is the
same old shoe campaign after cam
paign. This is the fact that the Demo-
cratic press and leaders would break
down if possible. There has probably
been more plans to break a man S
popularity this campaign than ever
attempted before in any campaign in
this state.
The Democratic party realizes that
in order to defect the peoples atten-
ton that they must work OF the SYM
pathies OF the franchised men and
women. To date the efforts have not
been of material benefit and they so
realize. If they care to put their can
didate before the public Just as a fight
between the parties and. the men they
will admit that he would have been
out of the running from the beginning.
They have sounded the laborer, the
farmer and citizen and have found
that the Roberts sentiment has not
been beaten down, or the other hand
it is evident to the conservative Demo-
crat that the reuse of the primary
stage properties has caused more ad-
verse criticism than it did during the
summer campaign.
Congressman Roberts as a citizen of
Nevada has taken an active part in its
advancement. AS a resident of Orms-
by county for twenty years he was be-
fore the public in each instance where
political ambitions were to be salts
fed the people responded without
party lines. In his home county ii
was a case of elect Roberts. The sem
timent has not changed in any par
ticular.
During the past eight years hun
dreds of people have had occasion to
visit Washington. Ask the people who
made the trip. and who rendered them
both service and provided the pleas
ures at the capital. The answer will
be Ed Roberts.
The Roberts home has been open
house to every Nevadan who has WIS.,
tied Americas capital. The home OF
the congressman was made theirs, no
matter from where they came. their
conditions in life or their future pros
poets. A man of the people is the
contention of +. +. Roberts. and as
such he is aspiring to the promotion
that he has earned after eight years
of service to the people. Advt.

TWO LOAVES A WEEK.
That is The Allowance Per Week Tn
der HooveI's New Wheat Rule.

Two loaves of Victory bread a week
-one weighing 16 ounces and the 9TH
er II ounces-is the allowance for
each man, woman and child in the
United States under the new wheat
rationing regulations issued by Her
bert Hoover last Saturday night, Food
Administration officials said in in
terpreting the rules in way that the
average American family can under
stand them.
The new regulations allow one
pound and half of flour for each
person in every family. 1t is estin1at-
ed that this pound and a nalf will
make the two loaves of Victory bread
of the size named. The head of each
family can safely follow this rule in
ordering his bread from the baker.
This computation, however, does not
include wheat flour products, which
nay be used IN other ways than in
bread.
The two Ioaves week for each per-
son, however, -aid the food officials, is
a safe rule to follow if the Americans
want to observe the new regulations.

in the past two years the Porto Rico
has taken the right of way, and l was
trying to find something up-to-date.
But the Robson farmer couldn't tell
me where I could get that variety. In
fact, he couldn't tell me of but one
farm where 1 could get any kind of
sweet potatoes. This farm had few

THE RIGHT MOVE.
Wilmington Dispatch.
PAGE SEVEN

WllHllIiSLOH DlSpdICH.
The Lumberton commissioners have
adopted a system that should prove
effective in ridding that town of loaf
ers, if the officers will only enforce it.
At the last meeting of the board in
structions were issued to the police to
see that all unemployed persons go
to work, it matters not whether they
are financially able to live without
work or not. That is the proper way
to go about it, as this is no time for
ldleness on the part of anyone, no
matter what his financial situation is.
This matter of having money and
thereby getting out from under the
usual operation of the vagrancy law
is very much abused 1t often hap
pens that the most confirmed loafer
and ne'er-do- well can show a roll of
money, and declare that the vagran-
cy law doesn't touch him, for he has
visible means of support. If there
was a method of ascertaining Just
how this loafer acquired his visible
means of support" the chances are
that he would often find himself with
charges against him of nature more
serious than vagrancy
Lumberton is on the right track.
The man who gets his visible means"
of support in the right way has no
time to idle, and the plan adopted by
the commissioners to make every
body go to work will hurt no one hut
the confirmed loafer, and it was in
tended to hurt him.

folks the other day he told Of meeting
Mr.. Jimmie Barker, another Lum-
berton boy, in Paris, and how they
fell upon each others neck, glad as
glad to see somebody from home.
Frank had been there longer than
Jimmie and was getting along fine.
He had girl who was teaching him
French and whom he was initiating
into the intricacies of his native
tongue. Frank, good fellow that he Is,
felt sorry for Jimmie and took him
with him calling, and introduced him
to his girl and her sister. All Went
we'll as long as Frank and his girl
were present to keep up the "onEersa-
ton, but after a while Frank end his
girl went somewhere and left Jimmie
and the sister alone. And that was
pretty howdy-do for Jimmie and
sister. Neither knew Il word OF the
others speech and they could talk
only IN signs; and when Frank and
his girl went back they found them
sitting mute and distressed.
But it is cinch that Jimmie and
the sister have learned how to con-
verse long ago.

FEAR "MILLION
DOLLAR FUND"

Capitalist politicians and news
papers at Washington are visibly
alarmed over the Socialist Party's
determination to raise a fund of
s1,0OO,O00 to carry on the neces-
sary educational and organization
work to drive a number of So
cialists into Congress at the con-
gressional elections next fall.
The phenomenal increase in the
Socialist vote at the recent cleo
tons has forced the leaders of
both the big anti-labor parties to
neutralized their alleged differences
in every political division in the
United States where the Socialist
vote is crystallizing upwards.
