body knew how much real. neighbor-
hood opinion they represented.
Fortunately we've come a long
way from those conditions, but WE
STILL HAVE A LONG WAY TO GO.
The Federation of Citizens Asso-
Citations, composed of delegates from
the individual, neighborhood associa-
tions, was a great step towards sys-
tematic and general representation.
1t encouraged the individual associa-
tions to enlarge and improve their
organizations. Now we have arrived

VIDUAL ASSOCIATIONS TO SUCH
AN EXTENT THAT THEY WILL
ACTUALLY REPRESENT THEIR
OWN NEIGHBORHOODS AND THAT
THE OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES OF
DELEGATES FROM ALL-WILL
ACTUALLY REPRESENT THE
WHOLE DISTRICT.
For days you've been reading
about the "Organized Citizenship
Drive" Its plan is simplicity itself.
All II asks of the Washingtonian is
that he join the citizens association
In whose area he lives. Once having
joined you'll find the affairs of the
neighborhood association so interest
ing that you'll be glad you joined
and will become interested and
active.

they do, that is not, of course, any
argument against self-government. }
Take our transportation question,
for instance. In any other city, one
man would advocate municipal own
ership, and run for mayor on that
platform. Another man would ad-
vocate merger and private owner
ship, and run for mayor on that
platform. But before the campaign
had proceeded verv far, the issues
would be, not the transportation
question, but the personalities of
those men, their past lives, question
able things they had done, question
able motives they possessed, and so
forth.

TEN A AGO TODAY

@ Much has been said regarding the fact that Mr.. Taft is the most
o travelled man who yer attained to the presidency. Probabilities are
8 that he will travel more az President than any of his predecessors. Mr.
. Taft is anxious to get and keep in the closest possible touch with n
Q people: and. strange a it may seem in me of his weight, he likes to
. travel. Just how he manages to rest within the narrow confines of a
. Pullman berth is hard to figure, but he does rest m is less ear1ed
. by life aboard train than most men Of half his pounds.
. The Western Pacific has completed its track into Carin, and is COM
. ing on west at the rate of a mile and a half a day. 1t is expected that
. a gang will start from Winnemucca, laying track west, about the 29th
Z: instant. Supplies are being received daily att the material yard east of
. town. For the accommodation of the gang employed at this point three
. bunkhouses are being erected. This afternoon Division Superintendent
. Harowe will leave for Battle Mountain.

{. has begun a active campaign against prairie dogs o n the infested ranges

Winnemucca Is Years Ago Today
From The Daily Silver State

o The Truckee Republican tells the following: Last Tuesday night, as
Q westbound train Nc. 2 pulled into Truckee, a passenger or board set up
@ a most hideous howl of murder and other EXPLANATIONS. 1t was quite
o evident that he was insane. After considerable difficulty Constables
0 Long and Reed succeeded in landing him in the Jail here. DR.. Shoe

O of easing his mind, for O n Thursday he had apparently recovered from
o his strange Authorizations and was a IS sensible a anybody. He told the
o officers that he had a family in Louisville was bound TO Sacramento,
/. where he had acquaintance.
9 During the past week or two there have been no less than six pas
o sengers going through Truckee on the westbound trains that have acted
Q Al though they were insane. The officers hee ire almost satisfied that

Q getting their money. The crazy man taken from the train Tuesday
o night, whose name, by the way, was Martin Kaehn. said that he had Sis
@ in money; but when he recovered in Truckee he didn't have a cent on
o his person. He said he was sure he had the money when he was not a
Q great distance east of here, and he had no idea what had become of it.

RICH IN PROMISE

The Klondike district is going to
be heard from in no uncertain way
during the coming summer, in the
opinion of mining men who have been
watching development work that has
been going forward of late in that
locality. One of the latest finds is
reported from the Klondike property
operated by Harry Mcnamara under
lease, but the discovery in particular
was made by Frank Kallsic, who is
working as a sub-leaser. At a depth
of forty feet a body of ore having a
width of from two to three feet is
exposed, and assays made upon ore
that was being saved as second-class
gave the startling results of $500 and
1887 a ton in silver and gold, with the
white metal, predominating.
Shipments from this block of ground
have been in order for the last sew
eral weeks and a handsome earning
has been resulting for the operator.
Mr.. Kallsic has located a group of
claims upon which he is prosecuting
development and an excellent show
ing is resulting. 1t is reported that
