Bates eoun-} ty democrats have acted well their] part, They have been both loyal| nnd generous, But now it appears that their time has come for recogni tion on the state ticket, With Judge Graves they are asking for the posi- tion of the supreme court bench. He isa good man, an able lawyer, fitted nud deserving of the high position he seeks, and it will be the part of wisdom and justice forthedemocrats to give hime position on the ticket. Bates county is our neighbor, and as snch its democracy has ever been kind, generous and responsive to our every call, henee the Mail bespeaks for Judge Graves the most solid and steadfast suppo: racy of Vernencounty. He will honor she bench if chosen to a positian npon it, by able, ethcient and honest service; and Vernon county demoera- - ey willdo itself, credst by standing with its neighbor, Bates, in demand- ing party recognition for its favorite and deserving son.—Nevada Mail, One of the inevitable results: of the just resentment aroused by the ac- tion of the Beef Trust in compelling consumers to pay advanced prices Yor meat when there is no legitimate cause for the advance will be an in- tensifying of the popular sentiment against the more evil combinations Many thousands of people have in the past few weeks been compelled to deny themselves meat, because they r Representative—T L.
