show my appreciation of this signal
honor by an appeal to my fellow cit

The Office of justice Of the su-
preme court is nonpartisan and its
importance should not be overlooked
in the heat of political discussion.
One OF the greatest evils in me ad-
ministration of the law is the long
delay incident 10 the presentation
and decision OF cases. There was a
time, from 1902 to 1915, when fire.
quent delays in the decision of cases
in the supreme court amounted to a
denial of justice in many instances.

with its work and IL reelected | shall
continue to devote my entire energies
to the dispatch OF the business of the

this district fully occupied while

is beyond question a postmaster. He
likewise has the happy faculty Of re-
tanning all his friends by his sin

The principal object of the judges
visit to White Pine county at this
time is 20 personally thank the yot-
ers so far as possible for the interest
shown in his nomination and which
they are taking in the matter OF his
reelection. He has visited all the
important mining aud agricultural
centers throughout the state and is
optimistic for the betterment aud
improvement OF these industries. He
displayed a keen interest in the af-
fairs of the farmers and s~tockgrowers
while they were under discussion at

bers likewise have a keen interest in

auditor OF Elko county. In success
i've elections he has at times he'd
strong opposition, but despite that
he has won u by handsome majori-

evidence the faith his home people
have in him and to emphasize the es-
TEEN in which he is held.
Mr.. Greathouse modestly admits
that he has political ambitions. and II
was with this knowledge in mird
that his friends throughout tho state,
and they are legion. induced him 10
become ] candidate for the high Office
for which his name has been sub
mitted. But in so doing these friends
were not unmindful of the fact that
Mr.. Greathouse possessed IN 2 high
degree all the qualifications ncces-
sary TO make a capable and efficient
secretary of state.
The office is one OF the most inn
portant in the state and the duties OF
its head are multitudinous. In many
ways they are along the lines on
which Mr.. Greathouse has labored in
Elko county mad in which Office he
rendered such splendid service.
Elko county. irrespective Of poll
tics, will cast an almost solid vote fer
Mr.. ~Greathouse. as will the other
coq0ties in which he is known.
His election by 4 big majority
would be a fitting tribute 10 n man
