SKA CIRCULATION GUARANTEED TO BE LARGER THAN THAT OF ANY. OTHER PUBLICATION | The Nevada Moratorium. (New York Herald Tribune.) The debt holiday declared by executive order in Nevada is an unprecedented effort on the part of a State to serve the interests of one man, in return for that one man'’s attempt to carry the whole live- stock industry of the State through a long run of very hard luck. The man for whom Nevada has adopted this unusual measure is Mr. George Wing- field, who as a cowboy won enough in a night in a Tonopah gambling house to open a ‘“clib” of his own, made enough out of it to buy a controlling interest in the world's richest gold mine and used the wealth that deluged him to establish the twelve banks which he now controls. The service which these banks have done to deserve a breathing spell is that of financing the sheep and cattle men, great and small, without foreclosure, through three years No longer can it be said, as people used t0 Sa¥,|of drought, during which the purchase of expensive that Democrats are better losers than Republicans. winter feed and the depression of meat prices have Never in the political history of the country have|combined to roll up a big deficit against the whole defeated candidates and their partisans taken defeat franching business. more gracefully or in better taste than have the| The situation presents no ordinary depression Republicans this year.

Then we should walk steadily along the path of recovery, confident that it will soon lead out of the valley of depression. From Europe the signs are increasingly promising. Here at home reasons for good cheer are appearing on every hand. Hard labor and patience and sacrifice will still be requisite, but there is every justification for courage and for hoping “till hope creates from its own wreck the thing it contemplates.” This election day in the United States should be as a signal flare to Americans, bidding them put their hands firmly to the duty which lies naerest, while calling out, each man to his neighbor: “Lift up your hearts!” Taking Fresh Courage. (New York Times.) DAVID LAWRENCE PRAISES | PRESIDENT-ELECT. David Lawrence, recognized as one of the wisest and ablest of Washington political correspondents and writers, editor of the United States Daily, hails the President-Elect as an able and useful man who will cope with the present situation adequately.. The New York Times contained the following anent an address of Mr. Lawrence in New York: While Pranklin D. Roosevelt was swept in by a wave of votes “against” the previous Administration, “we are fortunate that we happened to get a man as able and use- ful as Mr. Roosevelt,” David Lawrence, editor of The United States Daily, said in addressing the Lions Club of New York at a luncheon at the Hotel Astor yesterday.
