WHY WE NEED TO-
FEAR EVIL

Away back when the world was
young, before any of u creeds or
classics was born, a Jewish farmer
boy was out tending his sheep. There
in the silence of the night he got to
thinking about what every n of US
has puzzled over-about what force
made the earth he stood on, and the
bright stars. and himself; about the
riddle of existence, and what 1t all
means. And particularly flor he came
of a religious race) about the God
who Is supposed to be managing all
things.
Men have had all sorts of notions
about God. Most of them are ter.
rible, for the earth is full of tragedy.
A widespread idea among the ancients
and still believed in by many moderns
IS that the gods are simply the per-
sonifcation of mems fears -"timor
fecit deos'' (fear creates gods), as the
Latins said. But into the mind OF
this Jew, out there in the hills, there
came what is probably the noblest,
most wholesome and most abiding
'dea of God any human being ever
conceived.
He looked about at his sheep. They
depended on him to drive away the
wolves and lead them to green pas
lures. Then-for the most brilliant
IDEAS are born of analogy-he thought,
That is the way it is with God and
mel" So he made him a poem, and
sang it afterward to his fellows, doubt
less, and the world has been singing
it ever since, and will go on singing

voice to our deepest convictions.
That is why we still repeat his sim

terance of humanity. And as it gropes
it's way through this brief existence,
humanity repeats that u%tterance:

waters.

CARSON VALLEY PEOPLE TALK
DIRECTLY WITH CHICAGO NOW

Miss Lena Gale. night operator at
the Gardnerville telephone Office, has
the distinction of being the first per-
% to talk over the wire from this
point to Chicago, says the Gardner

Rod of time she was given direct

with the utmost of satisfaction to the
subscriber. The Farmers Telephone
Company recently made arrangements
for eastern connections.

THE LADY FROM
OKLAMOHA

Miss Alice Robertson, representa-
tive-elect from Oklahoma, will take
her seal in the next Congress with
the distinction of beng not alone the
only woman member, but also OF hav-
ing been, up to the time OF Ter nomi-
nation, an ardent anti-suffragist. She
fought bitterly the adoption of the
nineteenth amendment in her state.
But when she was asked to run for
Congress in the Second district, which
is nominally Democratic, she accepted
because she wanted to."see If the men
meant it" when they thrust the vote
upon u.s." says the Goldfield Tribune.
Her experience is truly IN amazing
one. The compliment of the nomina-
ton had a suspiciously hollow sound.
Miss Robertson knew it, and said so
Yet so strong was her belief that the
voters in her district did not wan a
woman in office. that she agreed to
make the race in order to give her
theory the seveEest possible test. In
a similar spirit of sportsmanship and
adventure the Republicans who Of
| fered her the nomination got behind
her in full strength, worked indefa-
tigably and, aided by the candidates
own unusual method of advertising
and direct personal appeal. carried
her triumphantly to victory.

HOMEGROWN SWEATER

John Cordano of Steptoe Valley,
while in Ely during the week. wore
a sweater which was much admired,
both for appearance and quality, says
the Ely Times. When asked where
the sweater was purchased he de-
declared it to be a homemade prod
uct. The wool was sheared from his
own sheep, carded and spun by hand
at his home ranch, and hand-knit.
The wool was selected from black
and white fleece and produced a beau
tiful effect in the completed garment.

THE REPUBLICAN NOMINEES

The REPUBLICAN NOMlNEES
THE final outcome of the Republican
= nominating Convention at Chicago,
though at times seemingly irreconcila-
BILE differences presented themselves,
has been beyond doubt that which will
prove to be for the best interests of the
country and of the party also.
General Woods fool friends wrought
his ruin-though no one charges that
either himself or his hackers spent any
part of his large campaign fund i'm
properly. But the practice of spending
such vast sums on behalf of presidential
candidates, once grown into custom,
might easily degenerate into corrupt
attempt by some INSCRIPTIONS aspirant
of great wealth to secure that high
honor by mere purchase as did the rich
Roman Senator, Didius Julianus, when
he bought for $4,000, ,0oo.oc-a sum
then equal to $50, ,0OO, 100000 now-the
imperial purple, cried from the auction
block by the avaricious Pretorian
Guards.
The failure of any one of the three
campaigners with big war chests, to
win the presidential nomination, settles
forever, let US hope, the expediency of
using for any purpose such huge sums
in behalf Of candidates for president.
But the naming Of Senator Harding,
whose candidacy avoided, the very
appearance of evil" spikes in advance
. whole park Of deeply-shotted Demo-
cratic artillery, which if not actually
fatal, would have been at any rate,
very annoying to face in the hustings.
The nominees and some features of the
platform, represent distinct compro-
misses between antagonistic policies
compromises that cannot arouse the
animosity of the adherents to any of
those various policies.
The National Convention after es-
Gaping several perilous pitfalls, has
happily had an issue SO harmonious,
both in platform and in nominees. that

Jury Tentatively Chosen
To Try Irish Radical
Larkin, Conducting Own Case,
Overruled in Protesting New
List of Talesmen

When adjournment was taken until
Monday in the criminal branch of the
Supreme Court yesterday, twelve men
had been tentatively selected as a jury
to try James Larkin, Irish radical, on
charge of criminal anarchy 1t is ex-
pected that on Monday Assistant Dis
trict Attorney Alexander l. Rorke will
open the prosecutions case and begin
the presentation of evidence
When the special panel OF talesmen
had been exhausted yesterday after
noon the clerk began calling the names
of talesmen from a new list. Larkin,
who is conducting his own case, con-
tended that this was illegal. He was
overruled by Justice Barlow S. Weeks.
The clerk resumed the calling of
talesmen and Assistant District Attor-
ney Rorke examined the first of these.
When Larkin's turn to examine came
he challenged the talesman for cause
and overruled, and the talesman was
challenged peremptorily by Larkin.
Rorke examined two more talesmen
with the same action by Larkin.
Justice Weeks reminded Larkin that
he had only four peremptory challenges
left, but Larkin explained he would ex-
haust them as protest against the
new talesmen. Rorke made no attempt
to examine the next four talesmen, who
were challenged by Larkin.
Then Wilfred H. Jones, a credit man.
Of $50 West 166th Street, was examined
fully by both Rorke and Larkin. When
the latter finished asking questions he
challenged for cause, but since he no
longer had any peremptory challenges
MIR. Jones was accepted as the twelfth
man,
