t'cularly in what their friend might
nave to say regarding his candidacy
and group gathered to hear hin,
They knew him as the author of the
present mining law, which, defeated
when he first introduced it as a
member of the legislature from
humboldt county in 1909, was en-
actead as an amendment aat the next

brought he to their ont among the
communities of the pioneer west "
said Mr. McCafferty, 'and that
brought her into the union which
shhe did so much to save in the stir
ring days of the sisties. without
her mineral wealth it is doubtful if
there would even now be a statet of

We are all glad to see agrfek,l
ture coming to the front in our sta g
We are Mad to see the water rights
on the Hamboldt and other streams
put in such shape that we can have
more farms and ranches. Already

as citizens to promotet the develop
ment OF both, and does my heart
good to see Rochester, such a thriv-

turning the sagebrush desert into
productive farms. The one industry
needs the other and nothing finer
could happen for the ranchers and
FARMERS of the Silver Statet than Il
see mining prosper, so that noce
