Who the Candidates Are
WHAT THEY'VE DONE AND WHAT THEY STAND FOR

While in Mr.. Lindley's office he
assisted Mr.. Lindley in preparing
the second edition of "Lindley on
Mines" which is a standard text
book on that subject. He also
did considerable work in gathering
material for a similar work on the
law of water. This data was de-
stroyed in the San Francisco FIRE
and the book was never published.
Having participated in several
rate cases against the railroads of
Nevada, he has gained a first-hand
knowledge of the transportation
problems of the state as affected by
the common carriers. He appeared
before the interstate commerce
commission, securing a marked re-
duction in freight rates on coal to

Practical experience in farming
and stock-raising, legal training and

three times as many votes in the
recent primary as all other four
candidates combined received.

CHARLES S. CHANDLER
Republican Candidate for United
States Senator

SsHsts eGhotcf
Charles S. Chandler, Republican
candidate for U. S. Senator, is
well qualified to hold the high Of
fee to which he aspires. For the
past II years he has been engaged
in the practice of law in Ely, White
Pine county, and is recognized by
both bench and bar as one Of the
leading attorneys of the state.
He has served his county for
two terms as assemblyman and was
chosen as speaker of the house by
unanimous vote of all the members
of both parties in the last session.
He filled this exacting position
with such strict impartiality that nc
appeal to the house was ever taken
from any ruling made by him.
Mr. Chandler was born and grew
to manhood on a ranch in eastern
Oregon, where climatic conditions
are similar to those in Nevada
He graduated from the Oregon
agricultural college in 1895, later
attending Stanford. While at the
latter university he became &C.
quainted with Curtis II. Lindley's
office, where he remained for six
years, meanwhile attending the
Hastings school of law.

The Pup Moved
The raucous tones OF the fire
whistle blew out this afternoon for
a fire at the house on West Fourth
street, owned by Ed Regain and at
present occupied by Mrs. Tracy and
her children. The story of the origin
of the fire is funny, and as little
damage was done, it is all right.
The little son of Mrs. Tracy was
playing in the sitting-room of the
house, while his mother was away
visiting a neighbor across the street.
The little dog was on a couch and
would not get down, SO the child,
who is about four years of age, set
fire to the couch to make him move.
He moved. The smoke frightened
the child and he ran and told his
mother, who, with the help of a
neighbor and some buckets, sue
ceeded in holding the fire in check
until the department reached the
place, when it was speedily dis
posed of.-Carson City Appeal.

who entered his place Of business
in Carlin the other night, bent on
robbery. Smith was sleeping in the
store, adopting this method of pro-
tecting his property after several
burglaries which had been perpe-

entered the proprietor was waiting
for him and administered an ideal
whipping after which the young
man was arrested and brought to
this city where he is now serving q

Baby Chicks-
Harry Candee, accompanied by
his family, left Monday by auto
for Pomona, California, where his
father, Rev. A. L. Candee, recently
located. Mr.. Candee goes by way
of Placerville and has already ship
ped $50 chickens to Pomona, his
father having secured an acre of
land in the suburbs.
Harry Candee states that the
poultry business proved very salts
factory this season on his home
stead in the Sheckler district. He
spent 81 in small ads and sold
$400 worth of baby chicks. He
cleared up about 5000 on chickens
during the first half of this year
and says he probably did as well
during the last half. It is his in
tention to return in the spring.
Mr.. Candee's experience proves
it will pay to raise baby chicks in

Let US tell you about Some Boat /!
Federal prohibition officers just cap
tured a fifty-foot boat on the Still
laguamish river, up in Washington
that was loaded with $4,000 worth
of booze. With water under it
and whiskey all over it, that was
anything else but dry vessel.
A brief filed in the United States
Supreme Court by the Attorney
General of California, in the Japa-
nese naturalization cases, sets forth
the contention that the Japanese
are not of the Caucasian race and
are excluded from citizenship by a
statutory provision restricting
naturalization to aliens who are free
white persons or those of African
descent" The willy Jap will now
come forth with proof, quite likely,
that he is the original-nama- blown-in-
the-bottle, nigger-in-the-woodpile.
A point at issue before a court in
Vienna, Austria, has to do with the
tariff, namely, are human skulls to
be classed as Injuries. Whichever
way the court may decide it will
still remain evident, judging from
the diplomatic antics of certain
Austrian and other European states
men, that the contents of skulls are
a luxury because of their scarcity.
According to press dispatches, a
woman, Miss Betsy Edwards, is
given credit for making the best
tariff speech in the Maine campaign.
Easy to believe. No woman,
whether a bread-winner herself or
the sister or wife or mother of a
breadwinner wants any American
man or woman to be compelled to
compete on equal terms with the
cheap labor of Europe and Asia.
Commenting on the criticism of
himself in the latest edition Of the
Encyclopedia Britannica, former Sec
rotary of War Baker says, 81 have
little interest in distribution of in
dividual praise or blame" AS we
review Mr.. Bakers connection with
the war, we can readily understand
his lack of interest in having the
story published broadcast.
