Thousands of women nave kidney and
bladder trouble and never suspect 1T.
Women's complaints often prove to be
nothing else but kidney trouble, or the
result Of kidney or bladder disease.

TO become diseased.
Pain in the back, headache, loss OF am
bition, nervousness, are often times symp'
toms OF kidney trouble.

Whether be was right Or wrong in
his course, the President certainly was
courageous, for the pressure brought
to bear on him in favor of the bonus
bill was tremendous, and the fall cleo
tons are not far away. Blu congress
had refused 10 devise and enact IA
measure which he could approve as

principles, so that the law makers
rather than the chief executive should

Fight over Latin and Greek.

A bitter val is being waged in the

of Latin and Greek as compulsory

The cave-in occurred from the
roof above the timbers in the drift
in which the men were working
which came with sufficient force to
crush the timbers and cover the
men with debris. The bodies were
reached by rescure workers within
fifteen minutes after the accident
happened, and as neither of the
bodies showed evidence Of external
injuries it is presumed that death
was caused by Internationally

lon farmer, has been sentenced by
Judge Callahan of Winnemucca to
serve from one to two years in the
>~~~~~>~~~>~~>~>>
acts of one man who has done more
to keep prosperity within Nevada
than any one other. He is George
Wingfeld, and whatever else may
be said of him he has been the good
fairy for Nevada during these try
ing times. 1t is said that he has
emphatically stated that no bank
should close its doors with loss to
the public within this state, knowing
full well what such occurrences
mean and their far-reaching effects.
True or not. the fact remains that
no banks have closed their doors
with loss to the public, and those
small banks which have quit be-
cause of inadequate returns on in
vestments have promptly been re-
opened, with no bad results. Per-
haps George Wingfield has had
a hand in this and perhaps
he has had a hand in keeping
other banks open that peo-
pie generally know nothing about,
and perhaps some of his deeds in
this respect have been but the idle
of people with nothing
else to speculate about. Perhaps.
But to positive knowledge George
Wingfeld has never Jagged in what
he believed to be his duty to the
state, and Winnemuccans, as well
as residents of practically all other
portions of Nevada, should not be
backward in recognizing the fact.
For concrete examples, the building
of the new Hotel Humboldt here, an
enterprise that it is practically GER
tain will not return ordinary interest
as business investment, or perhaps
the manner in which business men,
ranchers and stockmen came through
the depression crisis, with very few
failures. George Wingield has had
a direct hand in these things. 1t is
true that he takes profits and that
he has made his millions in this
state, so perhaps owes a moral
debt to his neighbor citizens. But
how much easier it would be for
him to take even a small portion of
his wealth and retire to more pleas
ant surroundings. and forget that
obligation, as so many have done
before him after they made their
stakes from Nevada's limitless re-
sources. We believe that the people
of Nevada should think of these
things and give credit to the man,
along with their brickbats, while he
is still with us to enjoy the fruits
of his generous acts. Don't you?
