SIMMONS MAY SEEK

DEMOCRATIC PARTY WILL DE-
CLARE FOR LIGHT WINES IN
THEIR CAMPAIGN PLATFORM
(By Spellier in Gazette)

That William II. Simmons, member
OF the Nevada public service commits
sion, founder of the Reno Grocer
Company, the largest wholesale es-
adjustment in the state, and for
many years a prominent figure in
business and political affairs in this
section. might become a Republican
candidate for the United States SEN
ate, a one of lie interesting topics
OF political conversation last week.
When asked whether or o he con
templated getting into the fight, Mr..
Simmons stated that he was posi-
lively not a candidate although he
had been asked by many persons to
consider the matter. Further he stated
hat he did not see how he could pos
sibly afford to enter upon a political
campaign at this time on account OF
his health and business interests.
In spite of his declarations that his
health and business would probably
interfere with his becoming a candi-
date for senatorial honors. friends OF
Simmons declare that he yet may be
persuaded to his candidacy.
That he would not only be a strong
contender for the nomination, but in
the election, is universally conceded
For the past ten years he has been
actively connected with large bust
ness and public affairs and during all
of this time be led the fight for lower
rail rates into Nevada, a contest that
was carried TO a successful issue
principally as a result of his efforts.
He is also a foreible speaker. Mr..
Simmons came to Nevada about ff
teen years ago from Salt Lake City
where he vas engaged in business.
