A ROUSING MEETING

The Cox meeting in Reno Thursday
night was greater success than was
even thought by its organizers. This
declaration has reference to attand-
ancc and converts. Had Governor
Cox really been the President of the
United States it is doubtful if he
would have been a greater attraction
The big Rialto Theater was crowded
to the doors and into the street when
the DeniocrEtic president candidate
took the platform. The Governor
carried his audience with him as he
went from one interesting subject to
another, finally affording them dis
tinct treat in thorough explanation
Of the. league of nations Questions.
The discussion Of the league subject
can be called a treat. for it was the
first time that Reno audience had
mad the opportunity of sitting down
quietly and hearing something that
was genuine and complete on the
question.

THE RIGHT man
FOR THE SENATE

IF there is a broad minded man
in the state of Nevada, that man is
Charles B. Henderson,. candidate for
the United States senate. If there is
a man in the state who is damilar
with its resources, its needs, that man
is Charles B. Henderson. III there is
a man the people of Nevada need in
the United States senate that man is
Charles B. Henderson, says the Wells
Herald.
He has grown from infancy in Elko
county. and since he has attained the
age OF judgment has been almost con-
stantly in public life. His former pro-
fession as an attorney, his desire to
know all about Nevada, his study Of
our conditions, have thrown him in
contact with people in all walks q
life. have familiarized him with nearly
every foot of the surface of Nevada
and made him part and parcel of the
state. Every interest he has is in
Nevada; here he grew into manhood's
estate, and here is the state he loves
best of all. Senator Henderson was
elected two years ago becaube the
people believed in him; they knew his
qualifications and that he would be Ne
vada's senator The trust was wei
imposed. Every act since becoming
a member of the upper house on con
gress has been taken with the view OF
aiding Nevada He has never let an
opportunity pass to work for the
state. His record stands out clearly
in the light and proclaims him every
inch Nevadan, with this state person.
ally his own interest Even in the
short term he has been in the senate
he has made record that the people
who elected him can point to with
pride. Always on the job. planning
and working all the time for the leg
islation to better Nevadas condition
he has brought upon himself the ap-
probation OF the people. We need mer
OF the type of Charles B. Henderson.
Nevada needs him more at this time
than ever before. The period on re-
construction is coming and we must
have man there who has the ability
the energy, the fitness and the ex-
perience to protect our interests.
All OF these essential qualifications
are possessed by Senator Henderon.
There is no reason why we should
not return to the senate with a
larger majority than he received be-
Tore. The people Of Nevada are too
loyal, too much awake, to permit OF
any other result. They know Senator
Henderson, his ambilities. his 10y
atty to his own soil and its people
and regardless OF politics will send to
the senate this man whom they have
tested, whom they know. Give Sena-
tor Henderson full siN-year term
and the next time he runs all parties
will A,ite on him.

FINE RANCH AT AUCTION

The public auction OF the Sutro
ranch, one of the best properties in the
Dayton section on Thursday, Septem-
Der. 23d, at the premises, should bring
forth some lively bidding. Aside
from the equipment, this farm has one
of the best water rights in Nevada
As the farm is to be sold to clear
up the Inleli estate, there will be a
bargain for someone who wants to
get into the farming game in known
section and one that has record for
production.

We express our confidence in and
our devotion to the principles and
candidates OF the Democratic Party,

Principles of Representation.
We recognize the duty of those

representatives OF the whole people
and not OF any particular party or
group.
