A MILLION
OFFICE SEEKERS

Now that good jobs are a little
scarcer and official salaries run a
little higher than in pre-war days,
an unprecedented rush is being
made for the public crib. In the
spring primaries multitudes of men
elamor for nomination. The ave
rage ballot reads like a telephone
directory. We hear of some sec
tions where there are literally hun
dreds of applicants for the few
offices to be filed. To count the
crop of candidates by the millions
is possibly only slight exaggera-
ton. The money spent for cam
paigning would more than pay the
salaries of the men who will be
elected. Voters of Winnemucca
know this, and they also realize
that this primary free-for-all in
dulged in by so many state is one
of the greatest tax burdens than
can be levied. A good many
would be glad to go back to the old
Convention system of nominating
and somehow we feel that if taxes
keep on mounting in this country
that is what will be done before
many more elections have rolled
around and made new dents in the
pocketbooks of taxpayers.

RESUME DRILLING
IN |LL|PAH WELL

The Ely Record is in receipt of
letter from j. E. Amenda, mana
ger of the Illipah Petroleum Oil
company, announcing that he ar
rived at the field last Saturday, ac-
companied by Mr.. Quinn, who is
now in charge of the plant, and has
resumed drilling operations. Mr.
Amenda and Mr.. Quinn made the
trip from Tonopah by auto, which
they were compelled to abandon at
Six-Mile house because of the deep
snow. They crossed the range on
foot, arriving at the camp after
dark, greatly wearied by the walk
through from two to six feet Of
snow, but found everything at the
camp all right and work resumed
on Tuesday. Mr.. Quinn will be as
sisted in the work by C. j. Rine-
hart, both of whom are experienced
oil drillers. Mr.. Quinn was long
connected with the Associate and
Grand Petroleum Oil companies in
the famous 100000 barrel well in
the Tampico field of Mexico. After
inspecting the field at Illipah he ex-
pressed great confidence in the field.
Owing to the severity of the
weather, work was abandoned at the
Illipah field in December, but not
withstanding the fact that there was
a much heavier snowfall there than
at any other field in the state, Mr..
Amenda's company was the first to
resume the drilling operations, and
it is probable that by this time two
shifts of twelve hours each are now
employed.
After work was resumed Mr..
Amenda returned to Virginia City,
where he is putting on a stock sale.
During the period of the close
down he was engaged in financing
the company at Reno, Sparks and
Virginia City, in which enterprise
he met with very good success. He
is one of the best statesmen in the
state, and as he has a property of
recognized merit there is no doubt
he will succeed in raising all the
money necessary to test out the
field. He is of the opinion that the
drill will reach the oil sands in a
few hundred feet, and if this proves
correct the future of the Illipah dis
trict will be assured beyond all
question. The bringing in of oil
at Illipah would be a grand thing
for White Pine county and the en-
tire state as well.

THE BANKER AND
ADVERTISING

The banker furnishes, in one way
or another, a large part of the mo-
ney with which business is con-
Quoted. Having lent money to be
used in business venture, he keeps
a keen eye on the progress Of that
venture and on the growing or de-
creasing value of its assets. A man
who advances money for the pillow
and the fertilizer and the seed and
the live stock, to be repaid from
the proceeds of the crops, is ma
turally interested in the growth of
the corn and the wheat.
What does the banker think of
advertising as force tending to
insure the payment of the money
he lends to the business?
Guy Emerson, vice-president of
the National Bank of Commerce in
New York, says:
at is becoming more and more
common for bankers to regard a
radical cutting down of an adver-
Using expenditure with close atten-
ton. The sharp reduction in the
advertising of nationally distributed
articles, the reputation of which
were apparently so firmly estab-
lished that nothing could effect them
adversely, has been followed SO
regularly by heavy falling off in
sales that the need for caution in
such cases is widely recognized.
The banker is coming to realize that
public interest is not necessarily a
permanent possession. Not even
the greatest corporation or the most

SHOULD NOT
DESTROY

Senator Arthur Capper, of Kan
sas, speaking of the tariff bill now
pending before the Senate, says:
Zone of the stock arguments Of
the internationalists opposing tariff
legislation is that if we give our in.
dustries and agriculture the pro
lection they need Europe cannot
pay her loans to this country. J
wish to say frankly that if tn.
price we have to pay for our for
eign debts is the destruction of
American agriculture and industry
then it would be better if these
debts were never paid. Why should
we ruin our great business, the very
foundation of our wealth, to make
it easier for our debtors to pay US
when they on their part are not
leaving a stone untyrned in pro-
tecting their own interests?"
This is exactly in line with Presi-
dent Harding's expressions, in his
annual message to Congress last
December. In that portion of the
message which touched upon the
tariff the President said: at is not
an unworthy selfshness to seek to
save ourselves. We seek to under
mine for others no industry by
which they subsist, and we are not
obligated to permit the undermin-
ing of any of our own which make
for employment and maintained
activities" At another point in
his message President Harding said
at is not to be argued that we
need destroy ourselves to be help
full to others"
1t is well that this thought be
kept to the forefront throughout
the tariff discussion upon which the
Senate is now entering. The free
trade influences are continually
harping upon the alleged unwisdom
Of building a protective tariff wall
around this country upon the theory
that to do so will prevent our
European debtors ever making
enough t. repay us or even become
sufficiently prosperous to buy
American goods.
The fallacy of this is at once
apparent. If we destroy our home
industries by permitting home mar
kets to be exploited by foreign in
dustries we thereby do two things.
tries and if we cannot produce we
certainly cannot sell. At the same
time, by destroying our industrial
productivity we directly bring about
the unemployment of millions of
industrial workers. This absolutely
destroys their ability to buy either
Of the importer, the home manu-
facturer or the American farmer.
Therefore, to permit our home mar
ket to be flooded with foreign
goods which are sold in this country
at less price than they can be pro-
duced in this country, is to destroy
both our ability to sell and our
ability to buy. The logical and in
evitable outcome of such a policy
would not be the enrichment and
upbuilding of Europe but would be
the improverishment of the United
States, the dragging of this country
down to the economic level of
Europe.

popular product can hope to build
up reputation which will of its
own force endure"
Mr.. Emerson is little guarded
in his language, but you get what
he means. The banker does not
like to see his clients business
choked by advertising curtailment.

Word from Genoa is to the eff
feet that European nations are plan
ming to lump all their war debts
and then negotiate with the United
States. If pooling of European
liabilities to this country will make
their liquidation easier we can have
no possible objection to such a
course, but the plan must not in
clude any suggestion for remis-
sion of the debts. If it does it is
not a matter for negotiation with
the United States. Our foreign
debt commission is specifically di-
rected not to remit a dollar.
