CARSON APPEAL IS
STILL AFTER GANG

1t is a significant fact that nearly
everyone of Nevadas prominent Dem
ocratic sthte officers who will be
present at the national convention at
San Francisco will have seats through
the courtesy of sources outside of
the state central committee and the
national committeeman, says the Car
son Appeal, which published dras-
tic denunciation of the methods en-
ployed by the Democratic state CEN
tral committee chairman in its issue
of last Friday. 1t is lasting shame
that such a condition exists, but it is
a fact nevertheless. The state COM
mittee and the national committee
man had quite a number of conven-
ton tickets at their disposal, but
these were distributed only among
the immediate followers of Kunz and
his gang. just as were most of the
tickets at the time President Wilson
visited the state and made his ad-
dress at Reno.
However, prominent Nevada Demo-
Gratis will be at the convention in
plenty and have seats in the auditor
ium, but as stated, through courtesies
extended from the outside.
Homer Mooney, secretary to Cover
nor Boyle, viii be there and have a
seat sent to him from Chicago; At
torney- General Fowler will also hold
ticket received from Chicago; Gov
ernor Boyle, if he is present, must
get his ticket frem the outside; Sena-
tor Henderson has secured one in the
East: Senator Pittman will probably
hold the proxy of Mrs. William Wood
burn, and George A. Cole, state con-
troller, will have his through cour-
tesies extended the Appeal. Many
other prominent Nevada Democrats,
including Gilbert Ross and Charley
Stout. will be present and have seats,
but not through any favor of the state
committee.
However, Kunz's gang will be there
in shining colors.

to stop Roosevelt.
There was lively scramble for a
moment in which Roosevelt won out

TAX ASSOCIATION
MAY BLOW Up YET

Whether or not the land interests
of the state of Nevada, as represented
at the meeting held few weeks ago
in Reno at which time the Nevada
Taxpayers Association was formed,
will continue to affiliate with that as
sociation, is to be decided upon at
a meeting to be held by them in Reno
on July 2, says the Gazette.
Ever since the organization of the
association, certain large land owners,
particularly in Humboldt county
have entertained the opinion that ii
would probably be more to their ad-
vantage to deal with the subject of
taxation through an association COM
posed of their own class than
through a statewide association, l..
which all taxable classes are repre-
sented. To determine what course
should be followed is the purpose of
the meeting to be held on the End.
AS the livestock interests, which
form distinct class in the Nevada
Taxpayers Association. are closely
allied with the land interests, they
will hold state meeting at Reno on
the same date and in case the latter
decide to withdraw from the associa-
tion they will probably follow suit.
Prominent officials of the associa-
ton have stated that it was their
opinion that the more active repre-
sentatives of the land interests would
advise strongly against secession.
F. j. Button of this city will go to
Reno as representative, but says no
decision has been reached concerning
the Withdrawal
