whom were convicted.

Insurgent leaders in the Senate are

Administration Senators for liberal leg
islation, farm credits and other similar
measures. IL they wish to espouse the
measures and the real relief we believe
the people demand let them get behind

Senator Norris's attitude is typical OF
that OF all Senator's who are willing to
be classed as insurgents in so far as the
term implies a stand for liberal legisla-
tion.
Slkillful maneuvering is being done by
both sides. There were no formal con-
ferences to-day by the Administration
or insurgent groups, but there was much

Il. . Foy. food expert and editor OF
The Daily Market Report, said last
night:
Although we had every reason to be-
lieve that this year turkey growers and

ferred to hold back their product and

rather than be a partner I'm creating a
domestic market that from every point
of view would be both profitable and
wholesome.
Because of this attitude, the turkey
market has been forced much higher
than was expected. The excuse for this,
of course, is a shortage, which In the
main is artificial"
The continued high prices Of turkeys
caused generous demand for other
poultry and substitute meats, who's
prices remained stationary.

CAMPAIGN FOR
ATTY. GENERAL

NJ. A. Diskin. candidate for AT
t6rney General ON the Democratic
ticket visited the voters OF Phoebe
last Friday ON his tour through the
southern part OF the state in support
of his campaign.
While this was Mr. Diskins first
visit to this section he found many
friends and supporters on his trip
through the country that had been
formed by his previous record as a
public official in the state. Mr. Dis
kin was for IL years a practicing at
torney in the southern part of the
state practicing law in the counties
of Nye, Esmeralda and Mineral,
aking his home In the city OF
Goldfield. serving Esmeralda for
two terms as District Attorney,
which served as a stepping stone to
the office of assistant United States
District Attorney under William
Woodburn. Later Mr. Diskin opened
up law office. building for himself
a profitable practice in Reno, his
chosen home in the more populious
part of the state.
The candidacy of Mr. Diskin
means more to the people of Nevada
than is apparent on the surface on
account of his former experience
which has brough him in contac,

adjudications that will come before

that must necessarily follow In the

Key Pittman will undoubtedly be
reelected to succeed himself in the
United States Senate, but with
Chandler on the other ticket the
fight will be waged on the grounds
OF support the Administration
which is fair enough to the faith of
both parties. On the other hand
Nevada has more to lose by sending
a new man to Congress at this time
than it hs to gain. The power of the
present Senator is recognized both
in and out of the Senate and the par
amount interests OF Nevada realize
that not to return Pittman to the
Senate would be mistake and as
consequence party lines are not
going to be barrier. Nevertheless
there will be battle, Chambers sup

REV BEACH TELLS OF THE MEN
ACE OF THE NORTH
When Rex Beach was prospecting
for gold in the Klondike quite few
years ago, he returned without so
much as a grain of the precious dust.
But he found something infinitely
more to be treasured. He struck a
mine of literature which has yield
ed the American public a phenom-

and photoplays.
One OF the greatest motion pic
lures that ever came from Rex
Beach's pen is THE North Winds
Malice, a story cast in the frozen
heart of Alaska in the romantic
days of the gold rush.
The theme of ''The North Winds
Malice" is distinctly unusual Mr.
Beach tells of the dread winter of
upper Alaska which descends upon
the country like an avenging spirit,
shrouding the land in its freezing
pail.
The furious cold shuts men and
women up tight in their cabins and
grinds into their minds a terrible
despair-the grim spectre of mon
otony. In this atmosphere, trivial
incidents are exaggerated beyond
their Importance, and rage flames up
ON the slightest pretext.

average of the crop of the Who'll
valley. The fruit crop is also much
better this year than for several
years and as result the thrifty
housewives are busy putting away
the store for winter, OF all varieties
of fruits and tomatoes. On account
of the long haul much of the fruit is
going to waste, making hog feed
