THIS IS A SPLENDID

Three weeks Of snow in this city
and the beautiful is no longer a
novelty. Coasting and snowballing
have been largely abandoned and
people think only of the unitarian
purposes served. If discomforts
attend, sober thought tells us that
the resources of northern Nevada
will be in full bloom as aftermath.
The. season is normal, for which we
may all be truly thankful.
Winnemucca people expect a full
measure Of winter and prepare for
it. Many take long walks afield
over the glistening earth covering
and the bracing desert atmosphere
makes one over as he stimulates
dormant organs into action as the
result Of needed exercise. Nerve
centers tingle in a healthy way for
the man, or woman, who braves
what many would call discomforts,
to seek sweet communion with Ma
ture in her prettiest mood.
There are many Of the effete type
who prefer the stuffy, heated hotel
suites Of the city and imagine in
their vainglorious way that they
live in a superior manner. They
seek diversion at poker parties, a
joy ride and in other strange ways,
and their supercilious state of mind
would not admit chat the desert
dweller pursues . course in life in
finitely more to be desired than
dining at Tait's or riding up and
down = hotel elevator. If they essay

WOULDN'T IT MAKE
YOU LAUCH?-

II after you have heard a man
rant about the failure Of the ma
tional prohibition law to function,
that more booze is available to the
drinker today than ever before, and
kindred statements, and later he re-
marks on the lack of life in the
great city which he recently visited,
where the killjoys have been too
darned busy; in fact, the good times
Of previous years are no longer in
evidence, according to this mans
contradictory evidence, wouldn't it
make you laugh?
Yet we meet with the paradox
very frequently during this season
when some men, and women, seek
for the cup that cheers and are
willing to take John Barleycorn
from his filthy, clandestine sur
roundings and send him on his way
down badly insulted alimentary
canal.
If booze were as plentiful as
some would like to have it the men
who are crying for a return to pre-
prohibition days would not be issu-
ing their plaintive, hollow walls;
they would be satisfied, for nothing
satisfies the bloodhound more than
rivers of booze. No, indeed; the
indictments against the prohibition
law would be coming from the peo-
pie who espouse it; not from those
who are plainly deprived of their
drinking rights.
The truest evidence of the sue
cess Of the eighteenth amendment
to the constitution of the United
States is contained in the protesta-
tions Of those whom it affects.
It is true that the hilarity of the
years agone is no longer with US.
It is also true that illicitly manu-
featured forty-rod can still be had.
But the days when men left their
beds and got their "eye openers"
and "appetizers" at the dozen joints
in the town, and for nothing, before
they returned to breakfast with
their families, are happily history.
They no longer walk along the sa-
loon row in the early morning only
to start the day in q sodden condi-
ton. The rotten stuff now sold
costs four bits a drink and up; it
is sold and not given away as
matter of business. Lawbreakers
can take no undue chances. Rum
ming the gamut Of the prohibition
statutes is really no easy task,
taken by and large, and the pastime
does not warrant the free distribu-
tion Of moonshine in advance of
breakfast time.
Truly, these are the sad dog days
for the boozehounds who would
have US feel that prohibition is
failure in the sense they explain.
To which we add, "for them"
The Silver State does claim, how
ever, that certain features Of the
prohibition laws are wrongs mat
ter Of personal opinion. Just how
those features are to be remedied
has not yet been made clear, but
there Is one thing certain, and that
10 that q return to pre-prohibition
saloon days is not desired, and if
public opinion is read Alright such
condition will not be tolerated by
the people of this country.

to walk the crowded thoroughfares
where other shallow pated folk, like
themselves, seek places, they are
jostled and crowded. For the des-
ert dweller such an existence be-
comes horrifying. He or she comes
to demand plenty of elbow room as
they move about; they like to 60
afield on days like the present and
contemplate in introspect the things
that lie about. Neither is the Pc
destrian alone in the desert. From
behind yonder sagebrush a nimble
bunny speeds on his way, while
from an eminence in the distance
you may see a predatory and very
cunning coyote who debates his
ability to overtake the quarry that
speeds ahead.
The man or woman who lives
long in the desert becomes a victim
Of the subtle narcotic that Is yielded
from what seems to the resident Of
humid districts to be barren waste.
Folk here wouldn't exchange places
with the city dwellers under any
condition. The things upon which
the urban folk depend for amuse-
ment quickly pale on the out-of-
town man from the desert, which
issues a booming call that cannot
be resisted.

MOST ANYTHING INTERESTS
US NOW

US NOW
It has been hard for the reading
public to drop back into the 1914
state of mind, but the abridgement
of public desire is being effected,
even though slowly. The people Of
the United States became accus-
toned during the war period to
reading Of happenings of the most
sordid kind. A headline ON the
front page that gave an mixing of
the account to follow in which the
battle was depicted that cost great
armies hundreds Of thousands of
human lives, became commonplace
through its frequency. Within a
short time after the sinking of the
great Titantic with its precious hui
man cargo, an event that staggered
the American public, people we're
fed tragedy until human life came
to be regarded very cheaply. Peo-
pie read Of the swaying to and fro
of charging lines Of humanity en-
gagged in the most sanguinary war
fare with nonchalance that was
amazing. Having visualized in a
very superficial manner the filth of
the intrenchment and the hell of
No Mans land, mental processes
reached an empasse. War accounts
were read with an indifference that
was commented upon by keen stu
dents Of psychology wherever they
were.
The return to peaceful pursuits
brought news editors no end Of
worry, for they had a reading pub
lie to deal with which had been
trained through newspaper practice
to expect carnage for its diet.
Headlines were adroitly manipu-
lated, scandal and invidual tragedy
were thrown into the news breach,
and now, when the armistice date
is more than three years old, people
are just coming to be normal in
their reading demands.
Ane statement u voucnsa1ed
through q close observance OF news
happenings and public response.
Again We zee the tnrih ana en-
thusiasm that follows q great foot
Dali game or . horse race or other
sporting event. And again we see
people take an interest IN who's

reside. men pause TO comment with
tneir wives upon the advent into
the world OF a new boy or girl at
the nome OF their neighbor, the fire
alarm SENDS the blood coursing at
highest speed through Its wonted
channels ana community topics
arouse more than q mild interest In
the minds OF thinking people.
As evidence that men and women
are coming to be normal once more
one only needs to point to the re-
cent instance in Tonopah where a
well known middle-aged citizen pro-
posed to marry an equally well
known middie-aged woman, twice a
grandmother and q woman who
commanded the respect OF the camp.
FOR days IN advance OF the event
the prospective bridegroom an
nounced the impending union by
streamers which unfurled to the
WIND as MS auto truck passed along
the business streets. Little won
der that the marriage turned out
to be ceiebrative event in which
the entire camp participated. Some
how men like to be let into the
condolences OF their associates and
when this marriage occurred every
body was seemingly happy. No
truer test OF the popularity and
splendid neighborIy qualities Of the
contracting parties could be put

TONOPAH BARRIERS RETURN
TO WONTED NORMALLY

On Tuesday when Tonopah bar
Der shops were opened for the
trade Of the new year customers
were appraised of the reductions in
rates that were put into effect by
a general agreement. Under the
terms of this hair cuts are now
fifty cents instead of sixty five as
formerly while shaves dropped from
thirty-five cents to twenty-five.

Parking.

Care should be used by local motor
lists in the parking of their cars In
the congested sections of the city. If
the parking angle is As degrees try
to get your car in the space as near
the angle as possible. If parking is
parallel get both the back and front
wheels as near to the curb as you
can.
In angle parking don't "clog up the
works" by putting your car at a
different angle to the next car to
for you, and you will never know
who did it. Besides that it takes up
a lot of unnecessary room. 1t is sur
prising to know that a large number
of motorists. when pulling into a
space large enough to park two cars
will. nine times out of ten. take up
the entire space so that no one else
can get in. Some do it from thought
lessness and others for fear that
there may not be enough room for
another car and because they don't
care to have another motorist try
to squeeze" in, with a chance Of
bending a fender or scraping little
paint.
When parking parallel don't get
your car so close to another man that
he has absolutely no chance to get
out unless lie waits for you. There
have been innumerable instances
where motorist has left his car
parked parallel to the curb; made
purchases In a store for perhaps If
teen minutes. and on coming back to
where his car was parked found that
he was hemmed in with a car in back
and one in front There Is little
enough room for automobile parking

cars In the small space between the
platform and the long row Of trucks.

There are ssveral remedies for this
condition, and something SHOULD be
done immediately. Remedy No. /:
Move the ear platform up TO: the next

trance to the Pslais Royal so that

across the Intersection of 11th and @

lists wait in front of the entrance for
their friends to come out
The one logical solution of the
problem is to move the platform TO
The next corner. Eleventh street Is
not wide enough for a car platform,
an entrance to large store and a
line Of parked trucks at one end of
the platform.

SHERIFF
GETS BOOZE CAR
Fargo Man Submits to Arrest
Without Fuss When
Caught.

A booze car with &c cases of whisky.
piloted by William $. Kile of Fargo,
\. d., was captured early this week
near Genou, by L. w. Hammaker, sher-
iff of Chouteau county. the officer said
while in Great Falls Thursday. Kilc
was arrested and later fined 5000 when
he admitted a charge of transporting
in district court. His car was seized
by federal authorities.
The booze car, followed by another
machine, raced through Genou while
Sheriff Hammaker was conducting a
sale. The officer jumped into his ma
chine and followed. BY a little maneu-
vering he managed to hale the booze
machine by blocking the highway with
his car. The driver. who was accom-
panied by his wife, submitted to arrest
without any fuss.
The second machine, said to have
been carrying gasoline to the booze car,
was stopped by the sheriff, but the
driver was not held. No liquor was
found in the car.
