STRAW BALLOT IS FUTILE FIZZLE
Tell the truth and shame the Devil. Here goes, and it’s
one on the Nugget. Twice we ran a straw ballot blank on
our front page inviting the good people of Nevada ‘City to
express their sentiment regarding the transfer of the municipal swimming pool fund to water system repairs.
Well, it comes hard; but the truth must out. We received:
just six votes. Five of them were in favor of turning the pool
fund over to the city for water system rénovation, and one
was against it. ae: =
If straws show which way the wind blows this particular straw show that the swimming. pool fund is about to be
converted to making the city safe in its water supply.
THE EDITORIAL CIRCUIT RIDER
The Akron disaster promises to sound the death knell
for this type of airship, as far as the United States is concerned, in the belief of California editors.
Is it worth while, they inquire, to continue experimenting with these cumbersome airships in view of the navy discouraging experiences, not only in this country, but abroad,
each. bringing appalling loss of life?
«Development of the type since the war has not been
encouraging, said the Orange Daily News. “It has never
been proven that the dirigible can do anything which the airplanes can not do more effectively and more cheaply. The
cost of the dirigible has been out of all proportion to its effectiveness and the danger to its crews can scarcely be justified.”
“In any event it will be most discouraging to the navy
department,” remarked the Santa Barbara Morning Press,
“for it was thought that the Akron was the last word in lighter-than-air craft construction, and that the remarkable advantages of the Graf Zeppelin, which was not so large or so
modern as the Akron, had demonstrated the usefulness and
comparative safety of this type of ship.”
‘Confidence will not easily be restored in the value and
usefulness of these ships, said the Stockton Record, adding:
“The American people will remember, in addition to the
Akron tragedy, the fate of the Shenandoah when struck by
The Quest
A restless breeze goes straying
Across the landseape fair,
It whispers in the tree tops,
It searches here and there
It rustles thru the grasses,
And flies across the fen,
It cannot rest untill it finds
3 The little homes of men.
And When at length it finds one,
“It breaths a soft, low song,
And quickly thru the portal,
It slips and glides along;
With touch of fairy fingers
It stirs each open door,
It danees in the sunlight.
That lies upon th efloor.
A while it seems to listen,
Then with a whispering sigh,
It joins its eerie laughter
With mother’s lullaby;
And rising, oh so gently
In little wiffs and swirls,
Tt toys for just a moment
With baby’s golden curls.
TY Our eager thoughts go straying
Across the shining wortd,
They fly from mountains hoary.
To shores: with white waves pearled;
They seek the caves of ocean,
They walk among the stars,
* But rest, and peace, and love they fin
Behind Home’s window bars. =

throughout the country report a
very encouraging response to the increase in space used. Of course I
am willing to acknowledge that
there are inopportune times to advertise, but right now in my opinion
is a time for judicious use of advertising. Especially is this true in seasonable merchandise.
It is certainly getting harder and
harder for hoarders in this country. Just think one may be fined
1 $10,000 or spend 10 years in jail.
Right here my wife butts in with this
cruel remark, ‘“‘Well thank goodness

A cartoon in the metropolitan
press by Winsor Mckay together
with an editorial on dictators, certainly presents a sad picture of humanity grovelling among the ruins
of his self created civilization. One
must read to the end of that editorial. The story is told in a climactic finish with sane prophecy as to
the ultimate outcome of the whole
thing, which according to Mr. McKay will be a bigger and better civilization based on truth, equality and
intelectuality, instead of greed, avarice and dollar worship. Let’s
‘drink a toast to that in our our 3.2

lightning and plunged to earth with the loss of 14 lives. They
may remember that all told over 270 men have met death
in non-combatant mishaps to dirigibles of the United States,
Great Britian, France, Germany and Italy since 1913. Our
most ardent militarists have not been able to build up a convincing case for these great gas bags costing millions of dollars and providing an almost certain entry into a suicide club
for those who man them.”
Commenting on the huge loss in lives and money caused
by dirigible disasters, the Berkeley Gazette said:
“Today the American people are asking: “Does it pay?’
Tomorrow, and in the days to follow, they will have more to
say on what seems to many to be futile experimenting with
these unwieldly monsters of the air. In the meantime the
sympathy of the nation goes out to the survivors of -the gallant men who fought so valiantly for their lives during the
terrifying final moments before the Akron plunged to its
death.”
