Goldfield--! he Invincible 13ack in 19()(j those days when the gold l ush was on for true in Nevada ah, then she was a great 'place, the town of (Jold- field. The same town that now lies in ashes and will live but in meinoiy, for the flames on a windy day last week, consumed the city. In Goldfield's passing what a picture conies before the eyes of one who learned to enjoy "the high, crisp air surrounding' the wildest mining town ever known. We see again the Main street with saloons and gambling .houses on either side, the stock ex changes where mining stocks flew up and down us reports from the hills told of the different strikes we see again the Ireat Northern saloon Tex Kickard's place with its two rows of bleachers around the sides. where hundreds of men used to sleep nightly; and when the mountain level hit Goldfield how they used to cany out a few dead from that saloon each morning men who had perished in the night for mountain fever grabs one quickly. '", One day Coldfield caught fire several years ago. It was when the town was in full bloom with every contrivance known to the loud-speaking mining camp. The fire started in the "sporty" part pf the town. The town was pretty sporty throughout, but there were sections that outdid other sections along sporty lines. the fire signal sounded and the little box shacks began to burn what a scramble for the open country. Every nationality was represented and every conceivable color and fancy garment went on parade as the populace hurried from the forenoon sleep that followed the night's hilariousness. With great difficulty brokers and bankers", miners and pro motes, newspaper editors und dish washers by united effort suc ceeded in saving Goldl'ield then. The last file was too much for (ho lofil nnnnlp hi combat and Americans now have but a very Email Goldficld left just a mere remnant 6f what was once the biggest, boldest, toughest gold camp ever known within the con fines of Unc'o Sam's domain. , - , OFFICE CAT TRAOC MARK BY JUNIUS Winn a fluppor Iohph her h-ad, Hhc oi (fit fin i In H on hoiiiu cuke-uutem Oculists Itusy.

At Meacham President Harding said he loved the stories of Burba ru Freitchie and Paul Itevere for the blessings they had brought in stirring American pride and patriotism, all of which Bounded mighty good to us. We have no lime for the guy who would look for the dot on the "i" or cross on the "t," for we be lieve as does the President that the thing to look for is the gen eral effect. We suppose the men and women, bookishly inclined! and who ponder over history seriously and intently would have I such men as the President of the Tinted Stales denounce the J story of Santa Clans because no histoiian has eer yet been able to actually locate reindeer tracks on the steep roof leading to the housetop chimney. Big hearted men who love the prattle of children and who stop long enough from hardened business life to put a dog on the head, aie not only willing but they want lo believe the story of Paul Kevere, Uie story of lubnrn I-'rcitihie und the story of Santa Claus. Harding is one of that type of men. Stage coach hit by Southern Pacific tram at laigenc resulted .1 some dead and dying passengers. All of which brings up the very proper tiuestion of permitting one man to run a coach carry ing twenty people on the highways. Undoubtedly the lull crew bill should apply to all busses or coaches on the highways carrying passengers. Jluman life must be better protected. The steam and electric trains are forced to give protect ion. They are not peimitted to depend upon one pair of eyes and one pair of ears to render safety to passengers, then why should auto busses be given that extraordinary privilege? Those who aix dead at Ku gene cannot complain, but all other passengers who use the Pick wick stages or any other auto stages have a just and proper right to ask the state for better protection.

Whenever her hair took on mat dun, faded or streaked appearance, this sim ple mixture was applied with wonder ful effect.

Now, in his political career, comes such utteraucis as those of Mr. Small which do more to poulaiize Henry Kurd than half page ads could do. Kurd must vbc reckoned with as a presidential candidate. Tis-snd, but true. Our Motto is McAdoo was hastened into the race for the Democratic nom ination for the piesidency, just after Kurd had said he would not be a candid, ite, all of which means Kurd is tilxmt to reconsider the matter and lay claim to the Democratic nomination.
