Strenuous Campaign

The campaign has been a strenuous
one. Money has been spent by The
Silver State in the effort to increase
the circulation of the newspaper, the
effect of which will be more directly
felt by the merchants and others US
ing it's columns as an advertising
medium, which, of course, was the
prime object in launching the late
campaign. The result is that mighty
few homes throughout this territory
will henceforth be without The Silver
State on the reading table.
Again, trusting that the winners
will derive a full measure of salts
faction from the prizes which through
their effort and energy they have won,
and thanking all of those whose
names names appeared in the cam
paign list for the interest they have
taken and for the effort they have
put forth during the six weeks cam

CLOSE OF CONTEST
CBy o. J. o'DelD

SeCOnu, WIN MIS-. elSnOnS tnlfu, dnu
the others finished in the order listed
in another part of this newspaper.
Seldom has a campaign been SO close
ly contested as was the gift enterprise
which ended Saturday night. Five
candidates pelled more than three
million votes each, and a few more
subscriptions turned in by any one of
the five would have placed an entirely
different complexion on the final out
come.
Spirited Campaigns
Mrs. Lyon, Mrs. welshons. Mrs.
Baker, Mrs. Austin and Miss Bartoo
all polled in the millions and made
dandy neutrality-suspicious. of which
they and their friends have every rea-
son to feel proud.
Closed on Time
The campaign closed promptly on
the stroke of ten Saturday night, and
as the hands of the Western Union
clock pointed to the hour of ten the
judges declared the campaign ended,
and Mrs. w. H. Ayres, wife of the pub
Usher of The Silver State, placed the
previously prepared seal. and the big
race was over. Immediately after
ward the judges broke the seals on
the box and the count to determine
the winners was commenced.
The gentlemen in charge of the final
tabulation of the votes proved them
selves old hands at the accounting
business, and went to it" in short
order.
1t was due to the quick, decisive
in which Messrs. Moore, Da-
vey n Thorson took hold of the
count that the result was ready to
announce in a tri1e over an hour.
Mr.. Moore opened the envelopes and
called out the votes and money there
in; Mr.. Thorson tabulated, while Mr..
Davey verified. Following the count,
the votes were rechecked by all three
gentlemen, after which Mr.. Moore, in
his calm, judicial an in stem
torian tones, announced the winners
to the crowd which had congregated
at The Silver State office to witness
the count and hear the final returns.

Washington, April 2.--Soldiers who were disabled in the service of the armies of our allies may now receive the sam vocational retraining as men Of the United Sta tes forces. The fed eral board for vocational education at Washington is desirous of loca atnS all such men and reqlests that cltl- zens who know of such men will fur nish their addresses to the board SO that these soldiers may be given ~thelr chance of reha biitation.
 It is a case where there seems ut terly no way of reaching these men except to appeal to citizens to help seek them out. The United States has as yet no record of it's citizens wounded in armies of the Allies. It is common knowledge that the total cnlistme ert was large. and there arc doubtless hundreds of these men, dis abled through their service to the common cause, and who until now have not been eligible for relief.
 Out of the fund provided by tho Elks these American citizens, injured under a foreign flag but in our cause, may now receive the same opportu- mites and benefits as are given our own soldiers, sailors and marines

 McanwhilC there arc indications rhat lumber may be expected to ad- vance in price eventually This cx- pectatiOn is based f,1ndanoontolv on tremendous demand as T result of tbc building shortar> and 2 largely 1ccreas sed production.' In 1918 there was a shrinkage of 5000. 900 900 feet as compared with 1917 production Furthermore all indications point to a vindication of the views of those who have been contending that there will be TO general reduction in wages. Tn the steel industry, for example, it is announced that price reductions wifi not be made at the expense of labor.
 Current reports indicate that pend ing building projects throughout the country have reached more than $500, 100000, which amount will be greatly increased within the next few weeks under the stabilized conditions that now are being rapidly brought about. In the metropolitan district of New York new projects have been increasing at the rate of So,OOO, 900 3 week since the first of March.
 "A tremendous shortage of nom es exists in Canada as we'll as in the United States. The Dominion and Provincial governments are vorki g on 8 plan to lend s32 2,o0o,000 to pros pectivc me-builders. This sum would provide housing facilities for 500,00O people. In New York City there is an estimated housing short age equal to the normal requiremen of city of 3O0,oO population.
