Recently at the meeting of the
Chamber of Commerce. Colonel w. P.
Metcalf informed us that a new Motel
was to be constructed here That
sounds too good to be true, He also
stated that we would all be given an
opportunity to contribute" - that
didn't sound so well, insomuch as he
said that we could 'guage" our con-
trtbutions by the cost of our auto
That's where I'm at sea. And ! wish
your valued advice as to what you
consider my proper ante:
A Original cost of my auto. $500. 90
Cost to maintain, gas tires,
d Net loss on car. $2341. 10
Now, the question is, am / supposed
to advance item A, B, or ID to the
new hotel?
Then, there Is another class of good
citizens who have never invested in
the auto-they still have all their
good money, so far as reports show.
What would you suggest as good
"guage" for them when it comes to
the contribution" for this socialist
hotel that Colonel Metcalf tells us
about?
Please 'guage" me.
Yours very. truly,

Whnoning Cough.

In this disease it is important that
the cough be kept loose and eXpector-
alton easy. This is best accomplished
by giving Chamberlain's Cough Rem
edy. That preparation also tends to
liquify the tough mucus, making II
easier to expectorate and renders the
fits of coughing less frequent and less
severe. 1t has been used in many
epidemics of this disease with the best
results. 1t contains no codeine or
other narcotic.

Acting Governor Pankey recently
Appointed w, II. Ball as road super

was then, as by act provided, up to
the COUNTY commissioners to fix Mr..

to do, and did. They fixed it at One

the limit? Well, not quite, for 1t
seems there is no bottom limit But
they made the salary payable quar-
Iterly. There's the rub, rs cents ev-

GOVERNMENT SAYS
''HOLD LIBERTY BONDS"
Important Financial Conference
To Be Held at San Fran
cisco January II.

San Francisco, jan 7.-One of the
most important financial conferences
ever held in the west has been called
for January II in San Francisco by
Governor James X. Lynch of the
Federal Reserve Bank. The princi-
pal speaker will be Lewis B. Frank
lin, director of War Loan Organiza-
tions at Washington. Those who will
attend the conference include Liber
ty Loan state chairman, War Savings
State Directors and Women state
chairmen from California, Washing
ton, Oregon, Idaho, Utah, Arizona,
Nevada, Alaska and Hawaii
The governments financial pro-
gram will be explained and particu-
lar attention will be given plans to
curb the activities of bond brokers
who are asking the public to sell
their Liberty Bonds. Hold your
bonds" is the appeal of the govern
ment, not only because selling them
now means a sacrifice to original pur
chasers, but because the government
is embarrassed by fall in price due
to numerous sales. Sale of bonds of
the first four loans will impair the
success of the Victory Loan.
The San Francisco Chamber of
Commerce is planning luncheon to
honor Franklin the day of the con-
terence.
Govrnor Lynch has ANNOUNCED the
appointment of W. w. Armstrong as
chairman of the Utah Liberty Loan
Committee to succeed Heber ]. Grant,
recently chosen presidnt of the Nor
mon church. Armstrong is president
of the National Copper Bank in Salt
Lake City and chairman of the fl
nance committee of the Utah State
Council of Defense.

KEDDIE WAS GOVERNOR
BUT HE DIDN'T KNOW 1T.

The Democratic state administra-
ton slipped a nice little joke over on
w. A. Keddie. secretary pro tempore
of the state senate and he was acting
governor for several days without
even knowing it until it was all over.
1t came about this way: On Decem-
ber 27. while Gov. Boyle was in San
Francisco. Acting Gov. Sullivan was
called to San Francisco to partici-
pate in some army work. When he
left it was in the belief that Governor
BOYLE would be back in Nevada be-
fore he had crossed the state line.
But the Governor failed to travel on
chedule and did not return to Ne
vada till three or four days later. In
the meantime Keddie was governor
but didn't know it.

STATE OFFICERS TAKE
OATH OF OFFICE
Eliminate Duel Feature Under
Change of State
Amendment.

Yesterday the new state officers
took their oath of Office before the
Supreme Justices, Chief Justice Cole
man administering the oath to those
lined up before him. Three new Of
ficers took the oath, being Justice
Ducker, Attorney General Leonard
B. Fowler and State Superintendent
of instruction w. ]. Hunting.
Under the law passed two years
ago, or the approval of the constitu-
tional amendment, doing away with
the feature of the Nevada oath, in
which the applicant swore he had
not fought a duel, been second or
sent a challenge, the new officers
take Office without this feature. If
any of them have fought duel they
are just as much entitled to the Of
fee and it's emoluments as if they
had.
AS Chief Justice McCarran retires
from the bench after six years of
active service, the last two acting as
Chief Justice, Judge Coleman made
the following remarks:
81 desire to take advantage at this
time to express the kindly feeling of
the court upon parting with Chief
Justice, Judge McCarran will
state for myself and for the other
members of the court, that | feel |
can say that we wish to express the
hope that his future at the bar will
be as successful and as faithful as his
learning and ability and his untiring
energy entitle him to. We know
that he possesses the characteristics
which must bring him success. and
which we feel will bring him success
and he goes from this court carrying
with him, as | have said, the good
wishes of every member thereof.
We believe that before a great while
we will learn that his efforts have
been crowned with that success which
they so justly deserve and merit" =

For the Central Powers the new

that was because having gained so

The charge that the govern
ment encouraged the disorders so as
TO escape its debts is absolutely
false. The reason we did nothing
against bolshevism at the beginning
OF the revolution was that the army,
fiocking homeward after the arnlis-
tice. was disorganized and useless
Now the government forces have
been rebuilt and we intend to use
every means to suppress bolshevism.
which without doubt, IS an enemy
to society.
Danger of Bolshevism Over.
The great danger OF a bolshe-
visit victory is ever. The struggle
centered about Liebknecht and mis-
associates In Berlin. There are still
traces OF bolshevism in certain cen
ters outside of Berlin, nourished by
agitators.
Examination OF captured Spar
tacans showed that they were most.
ly under nourished, sub-normal per-
sons. If they are fed. we need ex-
pect no further serious outbreaks.
II they are not fed, we must be
ready for anything. There is a sort
of desperation In certain circles
a feeling that nothing makes any
difference. These people are the vic
