TROUBLES OF OUR
OWN MAKING

Simple precautions would avert
most of the railroad crossing hor-
rors. Here are few rules, which,
if followed, would save many lives
Never approach railroad tracks
that must be crossed at grade with
ont this Thought: Here is the
place where / must play safep'
Have Your car under control, then
you will be prepared for any emer-
geney. You know the Importance
of having good brakes on your car.
Look them over, from time to time.
Probabaly nine out of ten times
there will not be train near
enough to check your progress over
the tracks. Make no effort to go
across, until by careful use of both
eyes and ears, you have sized up
the situation.
All must agree that little time
spent in trying to protect life and
limbs is a good investment. We use
up some time hunting bargains in
stores. Better plan to hold onto
the life yop possess. No bargain
counter has another to offer you.
When your end comes you will be
long time dead.
Maybe, when you get near the
railroad tracks, you see train
coming, and the thought comes into
your mind, ~ can beat il across"
That thought is mere whim,
Your judgment is not speaking. In
such a case, wait for your sober
second thought.
Remember that a fast train can
run quarter mile from the whistl-
ing post to the crossing in fifteen
seconds. Do you know just exactly
how far you can make your car
go in one-fourth of minute? Most
of US fail to do our best in an
emergency.
Do you admire a man who tries
to beat a train over a crossing,
when be has his family or friends
in the car with him, depending
upon him for protection? If such
man were to run his business so
carelessly as that, we greatly fear
that the balance would show up on
the wrong side of his ledger. Most
of US are very weary reading news
paper accounts of death and de-
struction. Let's be rooters for
safety at the crossing.

Notwithstanding the fact that the

yesterday, more vagrant cows were
seen on the streets this morning

that reason the ordinance was

TWENTY-FIVE YEARS AGO
July Is, 1897
(From The Silver State Files)

A letter from P. A. Pinson says
that cloudburst occurred at his
place about six miles northeast of
Golconda, Tuesday afternoon. The
water came down the canyon in a
stream ten feet deep, and Mrs.
Pinson and children had barely time
to escape with their lives. Mr..
Pinson was in Winnemucca at the
time. Everything in the way of
vegetation was swept away, and
what was before a finely cultivated
piece of land was covered with the
debris brought down the canyon
by the water. A thick layer of mud
was deposited on the floor of the
residence and the contents were
badly damaged. Mr.. Prisons loss
is a severe one, as it had required
years of labor to make the little
ranch the garden spot it was before
the disastrous coludburst occurred.

Quoted by the county board of

COMMERCIALIZED
SPORTS

Colleges and univerities through
out the country took action a
year ago looking to the protection
of athletics from what they re-
garded as can increasing tendency
to commercialization.' In their
student bodies they had men whose
membership therein was due princi-
pally to their ability to excel in
college sports. Many institutions
promptly dismissed such men when
ever records showed they were not
conforming to required standards
of scholarship.
Following the colleges athletic
associations throughout the country
began to exclude from membership
what are known as professionals"
They undertook to make such as
sociations purely amateur and to
this end formulated restrictions
and regulations which would place
competition in every way above
even suspicion of professionalism.
The statement was made early in
the year that athletic associations
in all large cities had succeeded in
their purpose to degree that was
most gratifying to their members.
Recently there have appeared on
the sporting pages of metropolitan
newspapers, and in magazines de-
voted to athletics and sports, arti-
cles strongly arguing that the ma
tional game of baseball be freed
from the commercialization to which
it has been subjected. The writers
of these articles support their argu-
ments by many facts pertaining to
the commercialization of the game,
all of which tend to prove that
"money making is antagonistic to
naturalization in that it creates
suspicion at least that results of
games are predetermined and cham
pionships are passed around"
They point to the fact that the pat
ronage of what are known as
"leagues" is decreasing about in
proportion as support of amateur
associations is increasing. They
clinch their argument with the state
ment that "the net results of high
priced hired players is the gradual
yet unmistakable decadence of the
national game"

WINNEMUccA COOLEST CITY
In STATE DURING LAST WEEK

RENO, Nevada, July 12.- A
gradual moderation of the hot
weather took place over the state
during the week, although tempera-
lures ran more uniform in the
south, and the change to cooler
nights was slow in the west por-
ton. There was, however, a slight
falling off of the sunshine OF THIS
section, Reno receiving 30 per cent
of the possible amount as compared
with SO per cent for the week be-
fore. Highest temperatures were
as follows: Reno, SO on the 9th;
Winncmucoa. 90 on the 9TH; Schurz,
81 on the 18th. Scattered showers
occurred during the first three days
averaging from very light in the
northern valleys to moderate at
higher elevations and in the south.
Ranch work progressed well, and
the growing season is still con-
sidered good where irrigation IS
practieed. The continued heat has
not been favorable to the proper
development Of potatoes and small
grains. but on the other hand the
fresh winds of the last few days
have been good for any wheat
where rust was progressing. Com
plant over lack of moisture is be-
coming general from dry-farmlng
communities, with reports of poor
outlook for grain crops. The earlier
grains are ripening in the south.All
who have corn of any kind have
noticed the marked growth because
of the recent warm nights. During
the week some rather poor looking
lettuce appeared on the local mar
llets, but other produce continues
good. Currants are ripening. For
the state as a whole, the first cut
ting of alfalfa is about over, and
the crop a good one.
Ranges in some sections were
relieved by individual showers, but
in many others drying is becoming
quite noticeable. General shipment
of feed cattle is reported from the
south.

LIBERTY MAKES
ALL ONE

Yesterday was Bastile day, ma
tai day of French independence.
One hundred and thirty-three years
ago an angry mob, incensed by
prosecutions and expressions, in
spired with age-old love of freedom
and the zeal Of revolutionaries,
stormed the ancient walls of the
fortress prison and RACED it to the
ground. No vestige of it remains,
but on its site stands lofty column
of bronze, topped by guided fig
ure of the spirit of liberty. All
Paris gathered about it yesterday
to celebrate the heritage wrested
by their sforefathers on this spot; all
France unfurled the tri-color to the
breeze with thought of the signi-
ficance of this day in the great up
heaval that changed the course of
western Europe.
In many parts of the United
States tribute was paid to the
French republic, even as few
days ago the people of France ex-
ulted with us in celebration of
liberty's birth. 1t is indeed fitting
that these two great free peoples
should unite in exultation, for their
historic achievements have been
long intertwined. Without French
aid the American republic might
never have been realized. French
ships, French money, French men
came to our assistance at a time
of direst need. Only a few years
were to elapse before these same
volunteers, who with Lafayette sus-
tanned our cause, were to take
notable part in winning for their
own people. In these later days,
when the two peoples have stood
shoulder to shoulder against the as
sault of resurgent autocracy, reali-
zation has come to each of their
historic comfy as pioneers for the
rights of man.
One hundred and fifty years ago
there was not free government
of freedom anywhere on the face
of the earth. Today there is not
continent where there is not a
government of the epople, by the
people, and for the people. The
United States of America, in revolt
against the German king of Britain,
first hurled defiance into the face
of autocrats. The American people
proved that across the seas could be
established a nation in which men
should rule themselves and in which
the only divine right should be the
divine right of men to live their
lives in peace and happiness.
Quickly thereafter the people of
France inspired by this example,
proved that free people can live
at the very gates of tyranny.
Independence day and Bastille
day might well be observed by the
free people of all lands as the
symbols of their liberation.

NO MORE
WAR

The anniversary of the beginning
of the great war will be celebrated
this year in a way that should at
tract attention. In 10 nations of
Europe and in IA of the states of
this country there will be demon
strations having for their central
idea, No More War" In Wash
ington a 10-foot banner thus in
scribed, will be displayed. In De-
troit, New York, Chicago, st. Louis,
Milwaukee, Washington and Boston
exercises are planned to voice the
sentiment.
The movement began in France
and in Germany last year and this
year it will be taken up in England,
's!IeIlsn 'usp9MS tpuBUoH
Czecho-Slovakia, Hungary, Portugal
and Switzerland also. The plan is
to unite all agencies in peace, re-
gardless of their methods, and give
expression to the universal senti-
ment, mo More War"
The influence of the worldwide
suggestion ought to be powerful.
1t is like man who has been sick
saying to himself, "Im going to
keep well; I'm going to keep wellp
The mere repetition of the words
might keep his mind in favorable
state. But the part of wisdom
would suggest also that he pay at
tention to the causes which gave
him trouble before.
So with the war-sick world. 1t
will be good to keep saying, mo
More War;" but it will be better to
create popular opinion against those
who preach the building up Of
armed force, the forming Of threat
ening alliances, the fermentation
of international hatreds and the
fostering of international suspicion.
If those who want no more war can
deprive individuals and groups of
the possibility of making profit out
of war they will do big thing in
the way of making their No War
demonstrations effective.
"Why does chicken always cross
the road?" asks a motorist. Be-
cause there's mirror on the other
side, probably.

SELLERS
MARKET

Whenever demand exceeds supply
there is Sellers market" De-
mand now exceeds supply of nearly
every essential commodity. This
is true of iron and steel, of all
building materials, especially bricks
and lumber, ard of house fittings
and furnishings. There is an sup
ward tendency" in textiles, boots
and shoes, and clothing. The Fed
eral Reserve Bank reports: "This
market is distinctly in the sellers
favor"
A Sellers market" is invariably
characterized by advancing prices.
On this score trade reports show a
gradual advance possibly to be-
come sharper if industrial conditions
are unfavorable. For instance there
already is in some production CEN
tiers a scarcity of skilled labor, and
in few of unskilled labor. Steel,
brick, and coal, which in spite Of
the mining of 100000 tons a week
is being depleted at the rate of
100000 week. In one day cur
tailment of production might en-
phasize the advantage Of sellers
but also might in the end dis
organize business and industry.
1t is manifestly to the advantage
of labor as well as capital to con-
tinue the sellers market" Pro-
ducts are crystallized labor. De-
mand for products is demand for
labor. Industrial progress during
the first six months of this year has
cut the unemployment down from
100000 men to fewer than o.
100000. With favorable conditions
the unemployment could by fall be
given employment. When labor
supply is unequal to demand wages
go up, because labor has sellers
market" and can dictate price. La
Dor may not be commodity but
is subject to the same economic
laws as commodities are, including
money, which is capital.
The thing for both labor and
capital to do is to continue the
sellers market" 1t is the key
that open they lac lock on the door
to prosperity. No other key will
with certainty unlock this door,
whose opening has been unsuccess-
fully undertaken by other methods
many times. When there is general
prosperity the consumer is better
able to buy, the one great fact that
clinches the argument.
