An Amazing Turn

tribe more than amazing.
The Frenchman was born on jan
uary t.. 1894. so he is triile more
than twenty six years old.
His last fight before the war was a
victory over Kid Jackson at Bordeaux
ON July %, 1914. A week later the
red deluge arrived. and Carpenter was
forced to give up boxing for more than
f,c years, at the boxing prime OF his
career.
Yet with these five years wiped out,
the records show that he has taken part
in over seventy five ring battles with
only six defeats charged against him.
aud three Of these registered before he
was seventeen years old.
When the Frenchman lost to Frank
Klaus and Billy Papke he was only
eighteen years old, at ap age where no

WHY HE APPEALS TO
THE COMMON PEOPLE

Senator Harding appeals to the vast
army of ordinary people in the mid
die west and far west, who like a
man with a lot of common sense and
not to many theoretical and throb-
bling thrills. The common people who
are going to settle the election dc
not live in marble palaces, ride. in
$4,000 limousines, rise at noon and
go to bed at 5 am. They are not
the sort of people who find pleasure
in " great ways" but in modest homes
and wholesome atmosphere.
They like Senator Harding. They
understand him. He is of their kind.
They see in him a relief from the
voices in the air." from the folly of
a government run by moral mush'
without Yankee horse-sense, from so
much theoretical reform efficiency as
to lose sight of results. This is why
the millions and millions of men and
women in the cities and towns of
the land, on the farms of the great
middle and far west, sort of take to
Senator Harding" and will vote for
him. This is why he will be elected
by an overwhelming majority.

THEORETICAL
PROMISES

1--WE pledge the Democratic party
to a policy of strict economy in gov
eminent expenditures and to the en-
actment and enforcement of such leg
islation as may be required to bring
profiteers before the bar of justice"
That is the last paragraph of Section
Two of the Democratic platform sub
mitted at San Francisco.
After seven years of endeavor
which have resulted in increased
taxation, unprecedented prices, ceas-
less profteering and the most reck-
less expenditures. we find the authors
of all these financial hardships pre-
scribing a remedy.
After having committed these dep
relations we are asked to accept a
promise of the Democrats that they
will do opposite to that which has
been done by the present admins
tration. In other words, they say
I'VE have done wrong, but if you
give us another chance, we will un-
do that which we have done and do
those things which you want done"

established scale of wages. Further
more, it is stated, Senator Harding
has always been fair and c~onsiderate
of his employees and has never had
a lockout or a strike or dispute with
them. He was, in his younger days, a
practical printer and knows by actual
experience the trials and cares of his
fellow craftsmen. We are particular

TOWN
GROWTH

lVWN
GROWTH
There are two ways in which bust
ness men and property owners can
become more prosperous.
The first method is by pushing at
their own business with all their
might. That is always necessary.
The second method is by so unit
ing with other merchants to make
their town grow, that all existing
property owners and business pianl
become more prosperous, through the
growing value of real estate and the
growing volume of trade that results
from a larger population.
Both these methods of expansion
are ueejful. The men who adopt the
first method only soon find that they
are up against a blank wall. They
find that there is only about so much
trade in a town. They may get some
of II away from their less hustling
%neighbors. but when these neighbors
wake up and see their trade dwind-
ling, If they make special inducements
and show good judgment in advertis-
ing, they get their old customers
back.
The general pull for town better
ment permits every business man to
grow without trenching on his neigh
boris business. Thus scrambling for
the same customers without effort to
create a wider market in which all
shall share alike.
Are our local organization active
and alert enough to get all of the
chances that are falling into some
ones lap all the time?
The business of chasing up new in
dustries is one attended by many dis
couragements. Three quarters of the
propositions in the market are from
professional fioaters, who are looking
for tax exemptions, subscriptions of
capital stock ard free rentals, and
who will nov elsewhere as soon as
they find some place to raise the bid.
There is, however, a constant per-
centage of hopeful propositions al
way looking for a little assistance.
There are constantly bright and COM
petent men, who are given no oppor-
tunity in the close corporations that
are employing them.
Are we making the constant study
to get all the promising new enter
prises that might come our way?

WATER POWER
SURPRISE

After it has been reported that
President Wilson failed to sign the
water power bill. recently passed by
congress, after ten years delay over
the matter, it now comes as a well
come surprise to the West to read
that the President signed the meas
ure before June IL, but for some un-
known eason the public was not ad-
vised. This action will open the way
for great development in the West
1t will open the way for electrified
ton of railroads, irrigation projects
pulp and paper mills, etc. This bill
will unlock great natural resources
which for years have been withheld
from public use through lack OF
workable legislation. The West has
won n victory in its fight for in

SAME
OLD THREAT

Mr.. Gompers says he will throw the
support of organized labor to the
Democrats, because the Republican
convention failed to accept his die
tation in writing the labor plank OF
the party platform. Which is no news
at all. Mr.. Gompers has always been
a Democrat and so far as he could
do so, he has sought from the first
to give the support of labor to Will
son and his party. Despite the eff
forts of Mr.. Gompers the Republican
party will lose Or gain no more labor
votes in the coming elections than
formerly. The labor leader merely
threatens to do again what he always
has done-urge his followers to vote
the Democratic ticket.
The silver state. [volume] (Winnemucca, Nev.) 1909-1925, 1920-07-03
SOME MORE
LABOR BUNK

Samuel Gompers is attending the
sessions of the committee on resolu-
tons hoping to win recognition that
will warrant him in delivering the
labor vote. This is not the first time
hat the so-called labor leader has
been guilty of the grossest deception
in offering to deliver his followers
body and soul to the Democratic
party. There cannot be any misgIv-
ings about his affiliations, for he is
so deeply tinged with Anglopnobia
hat he leans over backward when
he strives to toe the mark in line
with President Wilson's imperial
leanings for the covenant of the
League of Nations. That Mr.. Gom-
pers does not represent the body OF
organized labor is ~convincingly prov
en- by the action of Republican mem
bers of the American Federation of
Labor, who resent the action of the
labor BOSS in pretending to carry
around in his pockets the solid vote
of his associated membership. w. f.
Hutchinson, president of the United
Brotherhood of Carpenters, declares
hat he and other laDor leaders are
preparing to organize a Harding La
Dor League" to show Gompers that
he is not running the federation for
the Democratic party. The United
Brotherhood of Carpenters is the sec
ond largest organization in the fed
Grafton and consists of a body that
believes in the i%nalienable right of
every member to east his ballot ac-
cording to the dictates of his own
conscience.
The Gompers oligarchy was sound
ly spanked in the Iowa primaries,
where they went out to skin Senator
Albert B. Cummins alive. But they
didn't. They did not get his hide.
They didn't get his scalp. They didn't
even get a lock of his hair. Senator
Cunmmins swept his state with a
primary vote of more than 100000
and a plurality well above 10000.
What Gompers tried to do in Iowa he
failed to do in Illinois. He tried to
do it in Maine and failed. He tried
to do it in Massachusetts and did it
so grotesquely that he made Cover
nor Coolidge a figure of national i'm
portance. No man a traffic in the
labor vote without undermining the
constitutional rights of American
citizenship and therefore the effort
has always resulted in a miserable
failure. Gompers is an integral part
of the Democratic machinery and the
price of his allegiance is the appoint
ment of his o to a highly lucrative
Office under the Wilson administra-
ton. 1t is that sons job Gompers is
fighting for instead of the so-called
rights of labor under a free trade adj

bearing on platform and probable
choice Of nominee. In utter contrast
to that feverish desire for scraps OF
convention news we find an apathetic
public in regard to the meeting of the
Democrats at San Francisco.
Bulletin boards are deserted and
telephones are practically silent, in
dicating listlessness on the part of
Democrats and Republicans alike. II
is fair to assume that other sections
Of the country are similarly dis
posed.
1t had been early ~forecasted that
the greatest excitement at San Fran
cisco would be in connection with the
dry question, and reports from the
convention indicate that the predic-
ton was upheld.
Aside from that disturbing, but all
p%ervading subject, there is little in
terest in the convention. From the
opening of the meeting until the
adoption of the platform it was evil
dent that the administration forces
were in control and that anything
that was done would be favorable to
Woodrow Wilson and his adherents.

were named he came nearest to rep

Senator Harding worked his way
up and he doesn't claim to be one of

knows it all himself and who doesn't
need any advice. He ought to, and
