Definite announcement of his can
didacy for the Republican nomination
as representative in congress prob
ably will be made by e. E. Roberts
within a short time. Roberts, in a
recent interview, indicated that he
will seek that office again this year.
He has served Nevada in the lower
house several terms and was defeated
for the senate last election by Sena-
tor Henderson. He is considered n
of the best campaigners and vote
getters in the Republican party.
Up to the present no other Republic
can has announced his candidacy for
the nomination as a member of the
lower house from this state. Rumor
had it some time ago that E. w. Grit
fifth, state senator from Clark county,
would be a candidate, but reports
from Clark county are to the effect
that he probably will not seek the
| place. Griffith was elected state sena-
tor In 1918 for a term of four years.

LOOKS GOOD FOR A
REPUBLICAN NEVADA
(By Spellier in the Gazette)

There has been more confidence
and jubilation among Nevada Repub-
licans since the visit of Will H.. Hays.
national committee chairman, to Reno
than has characterized the party in
this state in many years. Likewise
there has been a corresponding de-
crease in the "cocksure" attitude the
Democrats about Reno and vicinity
have worn since the last election in
dicated there were all the way from
1000 to 1000 more Democrats in the.
state than Republicans.
There is every reason for the
change of attitude on the part of the
leaders of the two big parties. 1t
didn't take Hays long to readjust af-
fairs after he had put himself in
touch with those who understood
what was the matter with c%ontending
factions and had held little heart-to-
heart talks with members of the party
who retained a certain feeling OF
soreness" over results of past cam
paigns.
The first break in the line of dis
cord that has kept Republicans apart
in the last several campaigns cam at
the Hays luncheon when prominent
members of the party, who for some
time have not been on very cordial
relations, indicated a disposition to
yield and join with Hays in the key
note of his address-"there are no
yesterdays in politics"
1t was not until the following day
however, that old scores were COM
pletely thrown into the discard and
party leaders who had been wont to
travel along different pathways
agree to put their shoulders to the
same wheel from now on. Plain talks
straight from the shoulder, by B. F
Curler of Elko, Sam Plat, Frank
N%orcro5s, Ed. Roberts and Tasker l.
Oddie indicated beyond doubt that all
pre-existing factional differences had
been forgotten. Undoubtedly it was
the Hays visit and the advice of the
national chairman hat accomplished
what had become to be considered i'm
possible. The national chairman took
the party leaders into private eau
cuses and ironed out the differences,
which after al, were more or less of
inconsiderable size.
1t looked for a time as though the
afternoon meeting on the day follow
ing the visit of Hays and party would
develop into a splendid party contest.
Several visitors from the outside sec
lions of the state came to Reno with
a demand that certain changes be
made in the state central committee
and were ready to force the issue at
the afternoon meeting. Assurances
from a source that could be relied
upon, however, removed the spirit OF
contention and there was clear sail
ing from then on.
As q result of the developments
important events are predicted when
the state central committee holds the
meeting called for February IA by
Whitman Symmes. chairman Of its
executive committee.

Because no one appeared willing to
assume the responsibility of calling a
meeting of the state central COM
mittee, that body did not meet last
week, although a quorum was pres
ent, either in person or by proxies.
The executive committee meeting. the

to the last election, caught up some

The chief topic discussed at the ex-

members of the state central COM

Of naming delegates to the national
convention. Despite the fact thai
some of the biggest luminaries of the
bar of the state were present, no two
of them were able to agree as to just
what method the statutes provide for
selecting delegates. All were agreed,
however, that the statute contem-
plates some form of convention. The

ever, brought the parting of the ways

FARMERS HARDH|T
BY BAD WEATHER
RAINS ARE DISASTROUS
Low Temperatures Last Week Also
Result in Killing of Much Young
Cotton in County.

Following a period of excessive
rains and unusually low temperatures
last week. crop conditions in Faux
ner county today are in the opinion
of many even more unfavorable than
they were at the same time last year,
at which time they were considered
unprecedently bad.
For the past two or three weeks
there have been very few days favor
aole for farm work, the unfavorable
weather eliminating the last half of
last week in three successive nights
with . minimum temperature of -
degrees. and in a total of 3.29 inches
of rainfall at Conway Saturday and
Sunday.
Fully half of the cotton acreage in
the uplands is yet to be planted it
is stated on good authority, and the
heavy rains and severe cold have
killed much that was already up to
a stand, both in the hills and the bot
toms. 1t will be two or three days
at best before planting can be re-
sumed, and this will mean a crop from
three weeks to a month late. Under
these conditions boil weevil infestation
is likely to be much more serious and
unless there is late frost much of
the cotton will not mature
The rains of Saturday and Sunday
have put practically all the creeks and
branches out of their banks, according
to reports reaching here today. Cad
ron creek, the largest stream in the
county, was overlooking practically
its entire length and still rising this
morning. 1t was reported that the
