GREAT ADDRESS
At BATTLE MT.
Miners and Farmers for Miles
Around are Favorable to
Republican Nominee

BATTLE MOUNTAIN, New, Oct 8.
Miners and farmers of every sec
ton were here to hear Charles s.
Chandler and party. Chandler took
up P'tmans record. There were sew
eral questions from the floor on the
silver bill. One man gave a history
Of the bill from his personal knowl-
edge. He said: "At the Virginia
City meeting Of mining engineers
Ptttman could not say he passed the
bill because these men knew better,
but claims or intimates before other
aud ences that he deserves entire
credit"
Chandler read extracts from Con
gressional records showing the real
genesis Of the measure which says:
"Pittman in speech and in the
press and WoOdburn's Reno speech,
makes on effort to hide the real
origin of this bill with smoke
screen. Pittman did talk for free
cyanide, but so bitterly impugned
the motives Of the committee that
it took Oddie and other senator's
long time to overcome the animosity
created by Pittman aga nst the
measure"
Chandler took up the tariff and
showed the benefits to Nevada for
the farmer, miner and stockman and
said; THE republican party Is
friend of the people in that it stands
for equality, Justice and liberty"
A. Grant Miller compared the rec
ords of the Wilson and Harding
administrations. Hunting gave his
life history and sad: "The repub.
lican tariff policy gives labor a
square deal and means plenty of
work and good wages; that's why
