Winnemucca Nevada, Dec, ID.
Editor Silver State:
Enclosed please find my check for
five dollars which, think, will pay
for my subscription to The Silver
State for the year 1928.
| was considerably interested in
an article in one of the columns
of your issue of last Tuesday. One
of your subscribers ordered his
subscription to your paper diseon-
tinued because the gang" is back
in power in Winnemucca political
affairs. That may or may not be
true as is the statement that a
rip Van Wrinkle" sleep has over
powered the good people of Winnie
mucca. Whatever the present con-
ditions may be, and whether they
are to the liking of your CORE
spondent or not, does not concern
me as an individual at the present
moment. The fact that does con-
Germ me is this: That everywhere
the social and moral conditions de-
mand energetic effort that a general
betterment in human affairs may
take place.
Such a betterment will not be at
tanned by allowing oneself to be-
come discouraged because others al
low themselves to fall asleep, or
permitting oneself to quit the fight
because others do not see and act
as one would desire.
The present moment demands that
every real, true, full-blooded man
stay in the fight till the end, re-
CARELESS of temporary victory or
defeat. Right is right and will
finally prevail, for as the American
people become awake upon any
question they are apt to be right,
but never when they quit in the
midst of the fight. Good, loyal,
red-blooded Americans and men do
not quit. Nevada, Winnemucea in
eluded, will come out for the right
eventually.
Very truly yours,
SUBSCRIBER.

LAST WEEK WAS
CLOUDY AND DAMP
Friday and Saturday Were Coolest
Days of Week; Precipitation
Was Heavy in West and
North Portions of State

The weekly report of the U. S.
Department of Agriculture on
weather, crop and range conditions
in Nevada for the week ending De-
cember IL, states that cloudy and
stormy weather prevailed during
the past week, and the temperature
was extremely low on Friday and
Saturday. On the morning of the
9th, the minimum temperature was
2 above zero at Winnemucca, and
5 above at Reno. The weekly mean
temperature averaged about below
normal. The precipitation was
heavy in the west and north por-
tons, and moderate in the south.
The total for the week at Reno was
Ia inches, Winnemucca .73 inch,
Schurz .27 inch, and Modena 20
inch. The snowfall in the Sierra
Nevada mountains was heavy; the
depth on the ground at Summit
was 0 feet. The depth of snow on
the ground at Tahoe was IS inches
on the 8th, and telephone lines
were down because of sleet and
trong winds. In the north and east,
moderately heavy snow fell. About
half of the precipitation was in the
form of rain in the valleys. The
maximum wind velocity at Winnie
mucca was so miles from the south
west on the 9th.
The heavy, wet SHOWS and severe
freezing weather were unfavorable
to cattle and sheep which We're not
provided with shelter, and some suf-
fering was reported in the west and
north. Nearly all stock which had
not been previously taken to the
southern desert ranges or feeding
quarters were moved during the
past week because of the snow
cover on the northern ranges. The
severe weather made feeding heavier
than any other week to date. The
snow cover was favorable for win
ter grain in the north. There is a
Door stand of winter wheat in the
south, due to the late termination.
