NEVADA DRUGGISTS
MAY SELL WHISKY

A small measure of relief is in sight
for Nevada people who enjoy an oc-
casional drink of something stronger
than near beer" or the various forms
of home brew" by the announcement
that the next edition of the United
States pharmacopoeia will take the
ban off the sale in Nevada of grain
alcohol, brandy and whisky by drug
gists ON physicians prescriptions.
The new pharmacopoeia will be issued
some time this month, according to
the Gazette.
Under the Nevada law the sale of
alcohol. whiskey and brandy by drug
gists or physicians certificates has
been prohibited because the pharma-
copoeia of 1919. unlike its predeces-
sor of 1913 failed to mention those
liquors, placing them within that
classification of drugs that were not
considered necessary for medicinal
purposes.
X. c. Stoddard, federal prohibition
director. says that the sale OF liquor
by druggists will not be in viloation
of federal regulations if conducted the
same as in other states Under the
federal law physician may admins
Ter not more than six quarts of liquor
for medicinal purposes in any one
year. He also may write prescrip-
tons for patients, not more than one
pint to the same person in ten days,
the liquor to be prescribed as medi-
cine. A record of the prescriptions
issued by all physicians and the sales
made by various druggists under such
prescriptions must be filed with the
prohibition director. Stoddard says
that up to the present time only three
druggists in the state have made ap-
plication for retail liquor licenses.
which is necessary before liquor can
be sold under the United States law.

SHEEHAN WILL RUN
FOR STATE SENATE

Developments in county political
matters are coming thick and fast to-
day and probably will continue so for
the rest of this week, as Saturday is
the last day for party candidates to
file. Independent candidates have un-
til August q to file.
That electors are taking an interest
in the primary election is evidenced
by the number of men and women
crowding County Clerk Davey's office
today to register. Next Saturday is
also the last day political affiliation
can be changed on registration cards.
Perhaps of keen interest will be
the announcement that J. Sheehan
will seek election as state senator
from this county. An Independent
nominating petition is being circu-
lated for him today and the required
number of signers secured, but more
will sign the petition to make sure
of sufficient number.
Mr. Sheehan is vice-president of the
First National Bank of this city and
has consented to run after representa-
tion to him that IL is necessary this
county shall elect business men and
taxpayers to help take up some of the
slack at Carson-men who can do
something. 1t is confidently predicted
by his friends that he will have no
opposition.
Other candidates are expected to be
ready to file in a day or so, among
them being George w Brady of Col
conda, who will become an Independ
ent candidate for sheriff, and w. l..
Wilkinson for county commissioner

MORE CANDIDATES
FILE FOR OFFICE

More announcement cards appear in
The Silver State today. two of them
being for Republican candidates, the
first to file for county Offices. These
are Charles G.. Smith, who will seek
the Republican nomination to oppose
Assessor Organ. and w. A. Brown,
Republican for assembly. Others are
Thos. f. Powell. Democrat for district
attorney. and Jack r. Nelson, Inde-
pendent for constable of this town
ship.
w. A. Brown is one of the owners
of the Eagle Drug Company and will
be running mate with j. Sheehan.
Brown has also been prevailed upon
to run by men and women wanting a
business man for office-and he will
fill the bill on the requirement men
who can do something"
Charles G.. Smith, who as said is a
Republican candidate for assessor.
was the first of that political faith
to file for Office. Smith is now under
sheriff and well known in this county
assemblyman in 1905 and again ir
1915, making an excellent record o.
both occasions. 1t is expected his
labor record will help him in the com
ing election. he having been a member
of the Brotherhood of Locomotive En-.
gineers and identified with labor bet
terment legislation at all times. H.
was an engineer for the Southern Pa
cific. running between Ogden and
Wadsworth until 1898, when he went
to work for the Glasgow and Western
Exploration Company at Golconda
later being promoted to superintend
ent for that firm. 1t was Smith who
introduced the fellow servant bill or
as it is known now the employers liza
bility law. while he was at Carson il
1905. He secured passage then in the
assembly, but it died in the senate
Since then il has become a universal
law in practically all states.
Mr.. Smith is well liked by all who
know him and entirely competent to
assume the duties of the Office to
which he aspires.
Thomas +. Powell Democrat for
district attorney, has held that Office
for six years and during this last term
has been particularly active in prose
cution of violators of the prohibition
law and has waged relentless war
against other offenders. He says he
has no promises to offer and is will
ing to stand squarely on his record.
Jack r. Nelson. Independent candi-
date for constable, is well known in
this county, having been born and
raised here. His parents are Mr.. and
Mrs. VIM. Nelson of this city. He is
perhaps the youngest candidate yet
put forward, but is unquestionablv
physically and mentally prepared for
the work.
