THATCHER FOR GOVERNOR.
PICKETT AGAINST BOYLE

Roy Thatcher, resident of Elko, |
and state senator from Eureka coun- !
ty, will be in the race against VIM. |
NJ. Kearney for the republican nomi- !
nation for governor at the fall pri-
maries, as announced in the Reno
Newsletter OF few days ago. which
article was quoted exclusively by this
paper upon its appearance. Despite
Thatcher's denlals it has been known
that he had the gubernatorial bee in
his bonnet for some time. The fol-
lowing article concerning Senator
Thatcher's announcement. as well as
the announcement of Sam Pickett as
candidate against Boyle, Is clipped
from the Gazette of yesterday:
The formal announcement of S. NJ.
Pickett for governor will be made
within the next few days, according
to authentic information received by
the Gazette today. The entry of
| Pickett as a democratic gubernator-
ial candidate has been expected for
several months and his final decision
TO enter the lists against Gov. Boyle.

election, has just been made.
| 8yington Behind Pickett
The fact that Ben Luce of Tonopah
speaker for the last assembly is also
a democratic candidate for the COVER
norship as a liberal candidate" Is
known TO have shaken Pickett's or
iEinal determination to enter the fight
and it was hoped by many of the
liberal element within the party that
one of them could be induced to with.
draw. but all these efforts failed.
Pickett will face both Boyle and Luce
as opponents.
Frank Byington, mayor of Reno.
whose name has been mentioned a
number OF times in connection with
the governor ship, announced this
afternoon that he would not be n
candidate under any circumstances.
but would support Pickett.

an important part in the service of their
country, Pensacola and Escambia county
will extend a specially hearty welcome to
the members of the Escambia Teachers
Institute. which will convene here Febru-
airy 14-16.
Realizing that education and patriotism
must go hand in hand, men and women at
their educational conferences, have been
devoting much time and attention to sub
jccts which bear very closely upon the part
that the schools must play in the service to
the country.
While the institution will be held pri-
marily for teachers, the general public will
not be excluded from the meetings, and
Pensacolians will have an opportunity to
meet and hear some of the foremost edit
Gators of the state.
Tn this connection. it might be we'll to
call the attention of members of the Par
ents-Teachers Associations to these meet
ings, which will afford an opportunity to
bring together the teachers and guardians
of the children.

PENNY PASSES.

Those of US whose early education
consisted mainly of Mother Goose
Rhymes and Jingles," before the
days when it was considered fash
ionable to delve into folklore, and
the ancient book was valued for its
ability to amuse the children on
rainy days, can recall with WHIT
pathos we scanned the plea of the
Yuletide beggar:
Christmas is coming and the geese
are getting fat,
Please to put d penny in the old
mans hat.
If you haven't penny, ha'penny
will do,
If you haven't ha'penny, God bless
you
But if one who hadn't even a
ha'penny merited pity in the eyes
of the beggar, truly those of today
who literally "haven't a cent" would
arouse sympathy were it not for the
fact that we are all in the same pre-
dicament.
For the penny passes. What with
a two-penny war tax at the movies,
three penny stamps, odd change
everywhere, the, until now, mex
haustible supply of "coppers' has
proved inadequate to all needs. Then
children to buy "all-day suckers.
But, alackaday, the juicy and dur
able confection moves on with the
vanishing penny, while the copper
coin drifts onward to the Land of
the Hereafter" to which the bronze
man on its face has passed in peace.

this quintette brings to a close, at

was rather an interesting session in
which the sheriff figured on occasion
of the preliminary hearing, the sheriff
asserting that one of them had de-
cided to plead guilty and then de
Gliding that he would not, denying
that he had ever made such state

liar situation, almost led to trouble

80 many astounding things have
been done in the war that accounts,
which i've years ago would have held
the attention of the world, and con-

Before the war an Italian aviator
flew over the Alps was caught in
hurricane, attained a speed of $50
miles an hour, and landed safely.
HIS feat was heralded far and wide.
Today French Ace may. joust with
German airnan miles above the

the fact that so many enemy planes
were brought down in a certain sec

General Allenby's despatch, stating
that Allied aviators were f1ying 400
feet below sea level over the Dead

geography remembered that the
