GOVERNMENT FUNDS
FOR PYRAMID LAKE

Immediate construction or repair OF
tish-ladder facilities is assured at the
dam erected by the Indian service on
the iruekee river in the Pyramid In
dian reservation.
This result was brought about by
Senator Key Pittman, who received a
telegram from +. C. Finney. first
assistant secretary of the interior. say
ing:
Your wire September 20 regarding
construction fish-ladder, Pyramid lake
reservation; Expenditure not to ex-
ceed $1,000 being authorized for this
work Superintendent Jenkins OF res
Grafton being advised OF this action. "
Senator Pittmans telegram TO Mr. j..
Finney was as follows:
There is great discomfort in Ne
vada by reason OF failure OF Indian
department to construct proper fish
ladder on Truckee river i'll Pyramid
Indian reservation. Larger fish have
been prevented from ascending river
for purpose of propagation. Unless a
fish-ladder is built before freeze-up.
spawning on Truckee river will be
prevented for another season. De
partment says it can't find 5000 to do
work. You can generally find things
others can't. Help us.
Senator Pittman's action followed
unsuccessful attempts of game war
dens and sporting clubs to get action
from the Indian service. He had
correspondence and interviews with
commissioner of Indian affairs, which
resulted in being told the ladder could
not be built. His telegram to Mr.
Finney of the department was sent as
soon as he had received this mfor
nation.

DEMOCRATIC MEETING
AT GARDNEPVTLIF

Cardneryille, Sept 30th- when
this question comes again before Con
gress-and ii is coming before Con
sres many sessions until passed.
am going to fight for it just as have
IN the past, | am going to vote to
carry II over the presidents veto as |
did on the last occasion, and will
continue along this line until the SER
vice men OF the United States get
justice from their government.
This declaration by Seantor Key
Pittman, speaking on the soldiers
bonus in the Rex Theater in Gardner
vile last night before a crowd that
filled the building, was cheered and
cheered again.
Douglas county people felt that il
was fitting that Senator Pittman
should make his stand on adjusted
compensation clear to the voters OF
Nevada i'll county which has shown
its gratitude with a bronze memorial
tablet placed on the court house at
Minden, and bearing the name OF
every Douglas county boy who an
swered the call during the World War
Senator Pittman brought out plainly
that the leaders OF the Republican ad-
misstration are opposed to the bonus
and that the bonus bill vetoed by the
president was merely passed for the
purpose OF catching votes, with the
distinct knowledge that he would veto
IT. as he had said he would if it car.
ried no provision for paying the SER
vice men.
The senator classed this action as
hypocrisy, and showed that as far as
the present administration was con-
cerned, the bonus had been killed
ever since Andrew Mellon. secretary
OF the treasury, who made many mil
lions as a war profiteer, wrote his ia
nous letter to congress saying the
country could not afford to pay it.
1T would have cost $S000O,000 tho
first year" said Senator Pittman.
"and Mellon said we couldn't afford
that, but in three months he. recon-
mended that the railroads be given
$50000,000, and they got it."

ZOE FARNSW ORTIZ

He is a candidate for State Printer.
As State Printer he is the head of a
printing office owned by the State OF
Nevada If you wanted to build a
home you wouldn't hire printer to
do the work, but if you wanted fine
book or map, or complicated statistical
report printed, you wouldn't hire a
blacksmith to do it. You would hire
a printer. And that's what Joe Farms
worth is. In his earlier days he was
'hot water plug" working inthe mines
Of Virginia City. and for several years
he wassecretary OF the Virginia City
Miners Union Later he learned ty-
biography, serving under the old mas
tiers of the art preservative. Then he
became secretary of the Virginia Prin-
ters union. position he held until
his advancement to the position OF
State Printer.
The work turned out in the state
printing office in Carson is unsurpass-
ed by any OF the great printing houses
in the eastern states. In addition 10
his mechanical qualifications he is
clean man, even if he was born III Ne
vada. The people of Nevada could moi
get better or more competent man TO
manage the state printery at Carson
City. -

TO REVIVE DOMESTIC WEAVING
Movement in England to in a Measure
Restore System Which Pre-
ceded Modern Factory.


A short time: ago an Indian came
into Lancashire from training school
in: Paris and promised huge order
to anyone who could invent a. single
hand-spinning spindle with. an auto
matte feeder of raw cotton. This. was
to be used to help. crush the factory
system Of India by revival and ex-
tension of hand spinning, and with IT.,
domestic weaving. ..... 49,.
The idea should not be impossible,
but the difficulty of providing the
meehapisp Is to make it light enough
n weight to be:east!y moved about,
also to make It cheap enough for any
poor householder to purchase India
has Nbout. 100000 hand looms en-
ploying "a COG, 600 = or 5000, GOO men,
.womensand children, con1amipg more
than 25o,Ooo0oo pounds of yarns. H.:
In England the art Of domestic
weaving has been practically lost. 1T
was superseded nearly 100 years ago
by the rapid advance Of the automatic
loom and the factory system. But
there has been suggestion recently
that some attempt should be made to
reintroduce domestic weaving on a
more modern plan than that which has
been pushed out. Domestic hand-lo0m
weaving may still be found in isolated
places and it has also been taken up
by disabled soldiers. -

The living Buddha has q double per.
sonality. He is clever, penetrating, en-
ergetic, but at the same time he in
dulges in the drunkenness that has
brought on blindness. When he be
came. blind, the lamas were thrown
into a state of desperation. Some of
them maintained that .Bogdo Kahn
must be poisoned and another Incar-
nate Buddha set in his place; while
the others pointed out the great merits
Of the pontiff in the eyes Of Mongo-
lians and the followers of the Yellow
Faith. They finally decided to pro-
pitiate the gods by building great
temple with a gigantic statue of Bud

with two old guns, for which the
donor received the. title '""Tumbaiir

Motor cars, gramophones, telephones,

ing his servants with an electric cur
rent from his dynamo, a ferocious old
fellow poisoning his political enemies,
a lama keeping his people in darkness

cies and fortune telling-he is, how
