FIFTY HOGS DIE FROM
EATING GRASSHOPPERS

Wholesale dying of hogs on the J.
W. McClarren ranch in Moapa Valley
last week caused the report that hog
cholera was prevalent in the valley.
and brought DR.. s. Lockett of the
University of Nevada agricultural ex-
tension division down from Reno on
a call from County Agent S. Z. Mer-
rill, to investigate.
Instead of cholera. it was found
more than fifty hogs had died within
a week rs a result of eating grass
hoppers which are infesting various
parts of the valley this year. DR..
Lockett made several examinations
of the dead animals. disclosing in all
cases that they had partaken too
generously of the hopper tid-bit.-

NS settled right said a certain wel[remembered American. 1t
would not be settling the telephone strike Alright o force a large number of
intelligent, wen-trained, polite and honest hello girls. and others, % return
to conditions and stpends which have become intolerable. The welfare of
the army of telephone operatives is of far greater moment to the common
wealth than are the dividends of the Bell Telephone Company.
Says tn as Vegas Age: "The treatment which the government has handed
out to the telegraphers has been unfair and unjust Notwithstanding the
great increase in ratesw which Burheson forced upon the people, the faithful
employees have received 10 consideration in their request for a n increase of
wages to place them o the sam plane a the employees of railroads and
other industries. The crafty trick of Burhson in attempting % get from
under when the strike developed by turning the lines back to the companies
seems owardly. We hope and believe that the mn will get their increase"
The Sparks Tribune remarks that :" phoneless week has had its many
drawbacks; but if phoneless weeks help the phone girls all over the Coast
to get a living wage and human working conditions, then W re ire glad for the
phoneless weeks"
The Reno Gazette bends the suppiant knee when it says "The commission
is not called upon to enact the part of a strike-breaker. 1t should direct the
payment of good wages, and everybody knows that the wages of a majority
OF the local telephone employees have been far too small But it should pro-
tect the public. whether it peases the quarrelng principals DR. mott"
The fact is that the many employees of the telephone company in Nevada
are a far greater and more important integral part of "te public" than are
the rich men who control the company Any compromise to preserve the
wartime dividend raeat the expense of a comfortable wage would not be
protection, but betrayal If "te public must stand temporary inconvenience
as the price of fair treatmentf for worthy citizens, then we are ready to carry
or messages afoot as long as may be necessary.

His widow placed, of mammoth size, a stone above his head.

"Nbo's to Win Him. Will be Given at Turner Hall Next Fri
 day Evening.

On Friday night, one week from this evening, the play Who's to Wlp Him" will be presented by local anna teur talent in Turner hall for the benefit of the Children's Homo of this city Members of the cast are rehearsing diligently and faithfully and the public is assured of a real treat
 The play itself is comedietta of the old English type, the kind which has always made a hit with Ameri- can audiences no matter at what time played Frome the beginning 10 the end the play just teens with hum or ous trifing occasions which can not but make the audience appreciate the real humor behind the entire plot.
 As is every play there is naturally tho love scenes and they arc the fun niest parts of all The girls are all anxious for a city gentleman and tho gentleman is anxious for just the one little country girl who does not use every possible means to secure him before her cousins. The humor played by the man part is also real and decidedly appropriate.
 The play is being most capah1y di- rected by Miss Ruth Miner and she has introduced several special novel, ties into the play which add to the treat the public is to receive.
 A large and pretty chorus of local young women will give several fancy dances during the play which should also prove most attractive. Thus far a large sale Of tickets has been reported and the committee in charge feels that the cause added to the production itself should draw a record crowd. The Alpha String orchestra will play several selections as well as the music for the various parts in the play. The same orches- tra will play for dancing which will follow the play.
