THE ONLY ALTERNATIVE.

D RESIDENT HARDING has been deliberate in
il in taking action to put end to the coal
hortage and the railroad tieup, but not more SO
than the situation warranted or than the dignity
of his office demanded. He has been assailed by
extremists who think the United States Army
should have taken the mines and roads long
ago and operated them, and by those others, like
the governor OF North Carolina, who believe all
controversies should be left to settle them
selves without interference from the government
either state national The President has pre-
ferred to steer a middle course Hehas summoned
every available influence IN the interests OF arbi
tration. trying reach settlement by discussion
rather than through appeal to force He has
met with succession Of disappointH ents, and it
may that final solution Of the problem lies only
in a resort to more drastic means than have yet
been employed. If that times comes, President
Harding will know that he has exhausted every
other means at hand for reaching an understand
ing, and that resort to the emergency clauses OF
the Transportation Act.is the only alternative left
him with which to serve the public welfare.

HEARING OF
HARRIS WAS POSTPONED

The preliminary hearing of j..
E. Harris which was to be held
yesterday morning before Justice
Jas. Ritehie, was continued over to
Saturday morning at 10 o'clock in
order to give Harris further time
to secure counsel in case he should
decide to do so, the continuation
being granted at defendants re-
quest.
That Harris is suffering every
pang of remorse and worry as to
the outcome of his rash deed is
evidenced by the nervous state into
which he has lapsed. In his brief
sitting in the justice court yester-
day morning he offered a pitiable
spectacle, sitting with bowed head
and constantly twitehing hands and
body, denoting the mental condition
of the man. At his request the
continued hearing which was set
for Friday morning by Justice
Ritchie, was changed to Saturday,
the prisoner evidently being super
stitious and believing the former
to be an unlucky day.
Whether he will plead guilty
to a charge of murder contained
in the complaint served on him
several days ago is uncertain.

NEVADA ROUNDUP
is TO BE A BIG AFFAIR

With the biggest list of Nevada
riders ever entered in Nevada
Round Up, already signed up, the
most spirited competition in the
big celebrations history is assured
the spectators. Rivalry between
the various communities and ranch
outfits is sure to be far keener than
ever before. Every one of the
standard riding, roping and racing
events is well filed, this including
the relay, stage coach, pony express,
chariot race and similar novelties.
In addition to these events, the
committee has placed much stress
on the special stunts. Trick roping
and riding, 81 Perkins, the pre-
miere clown, with his trained bur-
ros, horses and mules, bulldogging
from a Ford car, and bucking
Shetland pony, inviting competition
from the junior bucaroos, are a
few of the main extra items in
tended to keep the big celebration
speeded up.
For the visitors entertainment
after rodeo hours, monster night
show, affording bizarre combina-
tion of New York's Cony Island and
Nevada's own pioneer days, is be-
ing arranged in the heart of the
city. The headlined attraction is
the '49 Camp, reminiscent of boom
days in the mining country.
Merry-go-rounds, Ferris wheels
and a variety of side shows will
be included among the multitude
of attractions. The night shows
open on the 31st of the month. The
dates of the rodeo at the track are
September 2, 3, and a.
Due to the fact that all the rail-
way lines Of the state are offering
special rates on a round trip basis,
Reno is making preparations to en-
tertain more visitors than ever be-
fore.

TUC-OF-WAR To De
A BIG ATTRACTION
The Zone" Between Melarkey and
Bridge Streets on West Third
To Be Closed and Given
to Contestants of Day

Just one of the many sporting
events which will furnish enter
tainment and excitement to the
multitude Of visitors and home folks
on Labor Day, September A, will
be the tug of war. Already two
teams or heavyweights, who add
to their weight by skill and head
work, are daily training for the
event, which promises to be one of
the big thrillers in the days pro-
gram.
The tug of war will occupy an
important place on the long list
of activities which will grace the
holiday spirit which will prevail on
every hand. Provision has been
made by the committee making ar
rangements for the Labor Day ac-
tivities to stage the event in the
zone, which is to be located on
Third street, between Melarkey and
Bridge. Arrangements have been
made with the city authorities to
close this block to all traffic, this
arrangement assuring perfect safety
to all parties who partake of the
days festivities.
Many are the features which are
promised for the pleausre seekers
who will swarm Winnemucca on
September a, and it is freely ven
tured by those who claim to know
that program of such variety will
be offered that even the most fasti-
dious will be well pleased and more
than repaid by making it point
to spend Labor Day in Winnie
mucca.

PLAYERS
OPEN ENGAGEMENT HERE

The Metropolitan Players opened
a weeks engagement last night in
their own tent theatre on the lot
just past the postoffice, where the
Chautauqua had their tent. The
play presented last night was
Saints and Sinners" in four acts.
The different parts were all well
portrayed by capable, evenly bal
anced players and judging by the
laughter and frequent applause the
audience was delighted and en-
joyed the hearing and seeing of
real live actors. No doubt they
will play to crowded houses during
their stay, as it is very seldom
Winemucca is visited by a company
of this kind. The company comes
highly recommended from Cali
fornia and Nevada towns and plays
the same towns each year and wishes
to add Winemucea to their list.
During the week such plays as
"fhe Brat" "Trail of the Lone
some Pine" Nothing but the
TRUTH" and "Twin Beds" To
nights play is Believe Me Ryan

ESPECIAL coRRrsroNpnsoKl

OROVADA, New, Aug. 3D.
The Misses Carlson and Martinsen,
who have been visiting with the
Misses Little and Merrell for the
past two weeks contemplate re-
turning to their home in Oakland,
California within the next few days.
The young ladies, however, will be
treated to farewell dance that will
be given in their honor in Orovada
this following Saturday evening.
Say, you old pessimist, when in
doubt, take a little time off and
pay Messers VIM. Greibil Fred Lit
man and Voights a friendly visit
and assistance il the soil and eli
matte conditions are favorable here,
and then be good fellow and tell
the world they are for you must
agree that these three ranchers
have proven the worth of such
claim.
The work of excavating for the
basement of Mrs. Frances Eich-
waldts new home has just been
completed and the balance of con-
struction will be rushed as fast as
securing of material will permit.
The building of this new home must
be considered the prime factor in
real home building in the valley and
it viii only be question of short
time when many others will follow
the example of Mrs. Eichwaldt.
Thusly works the influence of faith.
An exceptionally large attendance
is expected at the August meeting
of the Community Center, which is
to be held at the Ell Dorado school
house this following Saturday after
noon. The completion of plans for
the building of telephone line is
expected to bring out the interested
ones and plans for the 1923 season
are to be submitted.
The subject of nutrition will be
continued by Miss Stillwell next
Sunday afternoon at Orovada and
in the morning at 8 o'clock, with
the assistance of Miss Mann, Miss
Stiliwell will give canning demon
stration at the home of Mrs. Voight
Anybody, and everybody, is. ex
pected to take cans and such &
product that they would care to see
canning demonstration of.
Mrs. |. j. Studebaker, who has
been confined to her home for the
past few weeks, has been improving
rapidly and is now able to be ur

duties again.

COL. c. H. MOORE
CAMPAIGNS HERE
Has Visited All the Principal Gen.
ters of the State in His Cam
paig for the Republican
Nomination to Congress

Col. c. H. Moore, candidate for
Congress at the Republican prim-
aries, arrived in Winnemucca from
Rochester and way points by auto
mobile yesterday noon. He has
been busily engaged in calling upon
the voters in the city and is making
favorable impression upon all
with whom he comes in contact.
The Colonel has visited practically
all of the important centers in the
state during the past sixty days and
reports very optimistic outlook
throughout Nevada. "In farming
communities there is more and more
tendency to diversified farming than
there has been in the past" he
stated. Judging from all indica-
tions in every section, mining is
right on the eve of a very sub
stantial revival" While in the
southern part of he state he visited
the proposed dam sites on the
Colorado River at Boulder Canyon
and Black Canyons. This whole
proposed undertaking is SO logical
and will benefit such large num-
Der of people in the states affected
that it will surely go through to
completion.
1t was very evident in talking
with the candidate that he il very
enthusiastic over the future of Ne
vada, if as he put it everybody
will make up their minds to pull
together to conserve our fast water
possibilities and thus create thou
sands of new farms, bringing more
people to our commonwealth; all
of which will result in increased
wealth and the lowering of the tax
burden. We must stop being salts
fed with Nevada as it is and by
hard work, cooperation and faith
begin building for the Greater Ne
vada,' he concluded.
Col. Moore will continue his
journey east to Elko and Wells be-
fore returning to Reno for the
final roundup a few days before
election.
