THINK
FOR YOURSELF

This is one presidential campaign
when there is absolutely nc excuse
for any Winnemucca voter letting the
other man do his thinking for him.
The records of both candidates are
easily obtainable and this time you
are not asked to vote for men who
have not been in the public eye. Mr..
Harding is a senator. Mr.. Cox is
governor of Ohio. Their public rec
ords are as an open book. AS to their
personal records, any man who
knows both of them will tell you a
downright lie if he says anything
detrimental to the character of either
of them. They are both clean, Girls
tian gentlemen, you ear bank on that,
trary aside.
So it is up to you to do your think
ing along this line-which is the bet
ter fitted to run the business of the
United States, a business in which
each and every man is an individual
stakeholder. If you are a laboring
man, then read your labor journals
as to the record of each candidate.
If you are a farmer, learn if either
of them know anything about farming
or if either is directly interested in
the farm. If you are interested sole
ly in their abilities as statesmen, it
is which will surround himself with
efficient aides, and which stands for
principles you yourself think right.
Let no man do your thinking, and
don't go through this campaign blind.
If you are foolish enough to believe
any or all of the filth you hear of
either candidate, then you are letting
meon sway your vote. Remember,
that insofar as each man is person
ally concerned he is clean enough to
be President, and honest enough.
Then reason it out for yourself which
one of the two. in your opinion has
had the greatest amount of expert
ence in public business. which one
is best fitted for running this govern
ment just as you would u 1t, or try
to run it, if you were in charge. But
for goodness sake-do your W
thinking.

strictly TO business, and has been
successful both in ranching and min
ing.
Arentz is, however, well known
among men of affairs. His accom-
plishments as engineer, mines super
intendent, railroad builder, rancher,
and business man, are in evidence not
only in Nevada, but also in Montana,
Idaho, Utah and Arizona. He pos
sesses the unusual characteristic of
making friends who will swear by
him in any matter. He bears an I'M
blemished character.
AREN'T was called from his activi-
ties during the world wal to become
a consulting engineer to the Bureau
of Mines. He was given rank as
captain. He possesses college de-
grees of Mining Engineer and Bache-
lor of Science. Always a close stu
dent of political science and history,
AREN'T has decided ideas and full in
formation regarding taxation, freight
rates, long and short haul matters,
the tariff, and other questions which
vitality affect Nevada and her sister
states. Nevertheless he prefers to
appear before the people first in the
light of his practical knowledge and
accomplishments.
Sam AREN'T is a power wherever he
goes and in whatever he undertakes.
He would be a power for Nevada at
Washington. The character he has
made for himself assures against the
suspicion of personal interests or en-
tangling alliances. He has no FAX
to grind" He loves Nevada with all
his heart and unselfishly offers to
serve his state. He is forty-one years
old. and of Scotch lineage. He was
born at Chicago.
The Silver State is for men of his
calibre, and will try to help elect
him.

CONSERVATION

Il think that all utilities, except
that of agriculture should be held by
the government" declared m Demo-
cratic presidential nominee, James NJ.
Cox, on March 9th, 1912, while serv-
ing as representative in Congress
from the third Ohio district. Congress
man Cox was addressing himself to
what was known as the t~hree-year-
homestead bill, and this statement will
be found on page 1898 of the Congress
SIGNAL Record fer the Sixty-Second
previously, when Congressman Taylor
of Colorado was explaining the meas
ure, Mr.. Cox asked him if he would
favor amendments which would hold
all utilities and resources, save agri-
culture. to the government" to which
Mr.. Taylor replied in the negative.
following his answer later on by a
hectic condemnation of the "monar-
chial policy of perpetually holding the
Sot 90 ihiPS%AdA NlOWh idiiuop "
federal exploitation, for federal jobs,
and federal revenue"
Il emphatically object to the West
ern states being treated as Federal
provinces OF insular possessions"
continued Mr.. Taylor. 1--WE are an in
tegral part of this government. Our
states were admitted on an absolute
equality with the rest, and l will re-
sist to the utmost of my ability this
infamous scheme of trying to tax
and unfairly burden and deprive the
Western states of their just and equal

AMERICA FOR AMERICANS
HARDING AND COOLIDGE
IT'S HOW
YOU USE 1T

We venture to say that in every
home in W~innemucca, or in the en-
tire state for that matter, there are
many things which are not needed
and which are not used. They are,
therefore, of no value to the men,
Der of the family. They are hung on
to. like a miser hangs onto the things
he knows are of no use to him. They
could be given away-to somebody to
whom they would be of value. This
is true of books, and furniture, and
ornaments and clothing.
Some of these days we are going to
learn the art of getting rid of m
thing we do not need for something
we could use to advantage. We are
going to learn to anticipate the other
fellows wants, and measure our own
by them. We are going to learn that
a fair exchange" is perfectly legiti-
mate in the eyes of business, and we
are going to have a keener eye for
business. The only reason we have
the cellar or attic or lumber
Uttered up now with things we do
not need, but which the other fellow
would like to have, is because we
have not learned to ask him what he
needs, and what he has to exchange
for it.
Almost everybody who is anybody
reads The Silver State these days.
There, then, is the solution to the
problem. Drop a few lines-at a cost
of so cents-in this paper and tell
your neighbor what you have that is
no longer useful to you, but which
you will gladly sell at a fair price,
or exchange for something you are in
position to use. Nine time out of ten
as a rule, you'll find someone seek
ing that very thing. The fact that it
costs but a few cents to try this ex-
pertinent is the very thing that makes
it worth thinking about.
