TO
MEET At j. n.
Peace Problems More
Difficult Than Those
of War Perion

The farmers and ranchers of Neya-
da are being called upon to meet
problems of peace that are more diff
cult OF solution than those confronted
during the period of the war, says
Dean c. S. Knight of the University of
Nevada College of Agriculture. Only
by the use of the most modern meth
DDS of agricultural practice will II be
possible to succeed in the new era

his problems in order to realize pro-
ftable returns from his land and live
stock.

gram for the women of the State will

PHILLIPS HAS
PURSE Of GOLD
Tells How Resort Men
Get Possession of
Vanishing Coin

E. J. Phillips walked into the
Record-Courier office yesterday after
noon and flashed twenty dollar
gold piece, two tens and one five at
ye astonished scribe. Sometime in
the past aged people hereabouts used
this gold as legal tender, but now it is
something to be kept as an antique or
memento of what was once common
thing-in the cash trays at the banks.
Where in the name of heaven, did
you get that gold, Phillips?.' was the
question quickly shot by our reporter
Don't get excited, and | will tell you
its history" Concealing the least
trace of excitement, we listened, as
Phillips proceeded.
Years ago whsn the government
withdrew gold from circulation. peo-
pie had the habit of saving a five or
ten and in some instances twenty
dollar gold picece out of curiosity
Many of these people own automo-
biles and not very large bank ac-
counts. When vacation time comes
they head their fiivver to the high
Sierras to spend their outing. A new
tire, that was not expected. broken
wheel or something that they had not
figured in their budget happens, and
behold. They dig low into their
purse and the cherished yellow piece
saves the day.
Charles and Wilton Young took in
about a thousand dollars of this kind
of money at their Bijou resort during
last season, which is rather surprising
when there is practically no gold in
circulation
Mr.. Phillips will show you this
honest-to-goodness gold money pro-
viding you are not armed and meet
him on Main street in broad daylight
At other times he locks the gold in a
burglar-proof safe.

FINAL DECISION NEEDED.

A TTORNEY GENERAL BROWN reasons from pre-
a vious decisions Of the supreme court that Governor
Oco is entitled to out the full term Of Governor
Wlthycombe The supreme court itself has lodged the
issue, and is evidently divided this mooted point
The question involved is whether the secretary of
state governor during the full term Of the de-
ceased governor only until the next general election
when the people have chance to elect governor Fail
ing explicit Instructions in the constitution this cues
on court rulings upon the intent of the fathers of the
constitution decideand the court has passed it up
Notwithstanding the attorney generals learned opin-
ion, and the legal bubbles and echnicaties involved it
clear to the average yman that if the trainers of
the constitution had intended the secretary of state
fill out the governors full term they would have said so
instead of making him acting govemor---evidently to
in the interim before election The fact that they
refused to create lieutenant governor to replace the
uve indicates that they regarded the secretary of states
elevation as temporary.
The subject should be taken before the supreme court
as soon as possible for final decision for the fact that
secretary of state is to be elected might open the
door to further complications.
decision either way would not change the actual
situation If the courts held an election was necessary
all probability Governor Ocot would be reelected by
large plurality for he has made good as executive just as
he did as secretary of state and there DESIRE
among partisans fora change for eveheaded business
administration is assured.

TIE CRISIS

The crisis of year ago looks flahby
now it's days are DER; but, oh, what fits
we used to throw, when that CHEAP
crisis had the floor We viewed that
crisis with alarm, it was q frightful
thing to see, ii couldn't fail to wound
and harm the bulwarks Of our liberty.
It crlsed around q day or two, and
then abjectely looped the loops; an
other crisis loomed in view and called
for walls and maudlln whoops. I've
seen hundred crisis come and rear
themselves on end and go; I've seen
my neighbors stricken dumb by threats
OF coming doom ana woe. And still
our country jogs along, and finds re-
lease from every plight; and II a dozen
things are wrong, about a million
things are right. Whene'er a crisis
blows It's trump, the rabbit-hearted
tear their hair and say we're headed
for the dump, in haste--but / refuse
to scare. I've heard the cry Of Wolf
80 long, / look on wolves as hop-joint
brrtes; no crisis can disturb the song
of sane and joyous souled galoots
Bring on your crisis, one by one, or
trot them forth in groups Of eight; the
optimist will take his gun. and make
the blamed things pun their freight.

Lack of coal means cessation of industry, demoral-

It is the province of the government to protect the
people, only from outside INVASION and inside revou

Our government is striving to fulfill its duty in pro-
tecting the people in the coal strike by preserving law and
ORDER by permitting those desiring it, to mine coal by
keeping the railroads in operation and raonng fuel sup
plies, and by enjenng strike leaders from further
spiracy against public welfare
It is essential for all true Americans to vigorously
stand by the government in this hour of emergency, o

THE FIRST TYPEWRITER

So long ago as l714 a patent for a
typewriter was taken out in England
by Henry Mill; it was called a ma
chine for impressing letters singly and
progressively as in writing, whereby
all writings may be ingrossed in pa
per so exact as not to be distinguish
ed from print" His machine was very
clumsy, and it was not until more
than century later (1S20) that any
thing further was attempted. Then
the first American typewriter. called
a 'typegrapher," was patented by w.
