It Is as follows: "The republicans of White 1’lne county, Nevada, believe in and stand for: "America and Americanism, first of all. "Liberty, without license, among tho people of our country, and the enforce ment of the laws us expression of their will. ‘Our country's Independence now as In 1776 of the other nations of the world: viewing any society, associa tion or league of nations as an experi ment. possible of success, but more promising thereof If It shall come step by step, and without nt the outset our country's committing Itself so far that its nationality and Its resources will be sacrificed or Jeopardized before tthe success of the experiment Is assured. “Wc believe In and stand for Hard ing and Coolldgc as the exponents ot these principles, nationally, and for Oddie and Arentz as their advocates from tho standpoint of our state, and inasmuch as Harding when elected should have his hands tied it the op posing party were In control of the congress, tho same reasons which will prompt tho voter to vote for Harding and Coolldgo should. Irrespective of personal friendships. Impel the voter to vote for Oddie and Arentz. “In regard to county affairs, we de plore the constantly Increasing cost of county government under the exist ing democratic administration of our county affairs nnd this during a period when economic conditions required and still require strict frugality in both private nnd public expenditures and particularly in our county where, owing to the enforced curtailment of the mining operations and n broken and u Ac tiled market for livestock and general agricultural products, economy was and is imperatively re quired. In tills connection we pledge our county candidates to a policy of the strictest economy consistent with efficient service. “We believe In nnd stand for good roads and necessary public improve ments, but believe that cxrpnditures for such purposes may be greatly minimized by applying the simple business principles nnd practices that are employed by a business man In his own affairs, “We believe in any necessary en largement of our county high school required to meet the growing needs of our community und therefore es pecially commend the nctlon of our present republican senator nnd as semblymen—Messrs.

"We believe In the enactment of ad ditional reasonable laws to better tho condition of the laborei and help him enjoy the advantages of a free country really ruled through th- bal lot by n majority of the people, wo oppose those doctrines which have led to tho recent ghastly experiment and experience of the European nations. "We approve and Indorse the state and national republican platforms, and In conclusion felicitate the Ainoil ean people as a whole, republicans and democrats alike, on tne near approach of the hour when, under a r< publican president ar.il republican congress the real work of reconstruction of ntir na tional, state and county affairs will be gin—economically, effectively and with regard to the common Interest, not of any one party or class, but of every one."

Discuss Flotation Milling Process Interest among the mining men of the nation runs high regarding the plans for the first conference ever called to discuss the alleged oppressive practices of tho great trust which claims to control every known method of ore recovery by what is known as "dotation.’' Nearly l,IOn mining companies, either known as users of flotation ot who have tried to secure contract# with the Minerals Separation, Ltd., have been Invited to attend the con ference cnlled by the American Mining Congress In Denver during the week of November 15. Hundreds of these com panies are facing costly litigation and mlltons of dollars in alleged ropaltles and fines are Involved In suits now pending. America's leading legal ex ports are fighting for and against the big corporation which the federal trade commission Is now grilling, urged by the American Mining Con gress, which believes that the methods of the trust RhonUl be changed or the practices of the company looked Into by congressional inquisition. The Denver conference is In charge of a special committee of mining op erators composed of George E. Collins, governor of tho Colorado chapter: Philip Aigall of Denver, T. A. Pickard, publisher of the Mining and Scientific Press of San Francisco: E. E. Fnxton, president of the Engles Copper Com pany of California: .1. W. Callow of Salt Lake and It.

Believing that Inflated prices would result late this year from a shortage of steel in tlio country, an order for 10,500 plates was placed with the plate making factory some time ago and de livery is now being made. Automobile and truck license plates will commence with No. 50-001 and mo torcycle plates with No. 1 when regls- ! tfation begins the first of tlio year. A! feature of the coming year's automo bile plate will be the addition of a hy phen between tlio second and third nu merals to permit an easier reading of the number. Comparative registration figures show that seven times as many plates will bo used this year as were used In 1914, the first year Nevada's motor ve hicle law went into effect, and receipts from fees will be twenty-four times as great as they were at that time. The registrations and revenues for the last seven years have been as follows; in 1914, 1.487 licenses, with receipts of $4,331; 1913, 2.009 licenses. $7,873: 1916, 4.919 licenses, $20,116; 1917, 7,160 li censes, $31,106; 1919, 8,169 licenses, $31 09J * 1919. 9.305 licenses. $37,550; 1920 to date. 10,396 licenses. $102,989. It is expected that the registration will reach 10.500 before December 31. One vehicle to every seven persons In the state is Nevada’* comparison, with a national ratio of one vehicle to every fourteen < f population. A total of 7.558,848 motor vehicles were li censed in the Vnlted tSates lust year. Estimating a registration of 10,500 machines ami a conservative average motor ear mileage of 3,000, the total inib-age for the year In Nevada will he 31,500,900. which, multiplied by an av erage of three passengers, means a total passenger mileage of 91,500,000. Lincoln Highway Is One-Tlirrt Paved Figures recently published liy the Lincoln Highway Association show that 37 per cent of tlio 3,223 miles of ttie Lincoln highway is paved or ma cadamized.
