S0NETHIH9 OF PACIFIC COAST
POLITICS.

NeVdUS, C9llIOEuio ouV OISkVuf
benefited at all BY the Pacific Railroad
owe those benefits to . Republican Con
gress and while these States have thu:
been favored by Congressional action
they are still in q condition to need
further legislation in their behalf. Al
matters now stand, however, Nevads
is the only one Of these States that is
not opposed to the National Admiuistra-
ton and while FIVE out of six of the
Pacific Coast Senators are Republicans,
California is suffering from Democratic
misrule, and Oregon is also held in
Copperhead embrace. 1t is safe enough
TO predict that Congress will remain for
many years to come in the hands of the
Republican party and as business
proposition, therefore, it were better for
the peculiar interests of this slope that
our representatives, in Congress should
be of such q personal and political
character as to command the large influ-
ence which our wants demand. We be-
Heve that all the Republican party of
Nevada needs to do to ensure a CONT
nuauce of its dominancy is to present,
for the suffrage of the people, at the
next general election, a ticket composed
of such men as will be recognized as
the very best fitted for the Offices to
which they are named. We have had
at least one too many trading" con-
ventio.s. Let the party get together,
when next its delegates assemble, de-
termined in the very 6rst place, to sub
serve the highest interests of the State.
By so doing they will equally subserve
the interests of the party. There never
was so bright . prospect for success as
now. We shall throw it away, however,
if factions and feuds are to rule the |
hour, and sectional prejudices and small,
private ambitions are to be allowed to |
sway the action of the party. Perhaps, |
BY the establishment of the fact that
the Mormon settlements on our south
eastern border are within the limits of
this State, the Democratic vote may be
somewhat increased; but the Fifteenth
enfranchises the colored
men who live among Ms; and nearly
every one of the two hundred and fifty
rioters of that class will cast a Republic
IAN ticket if they are treated with any
hing like decent consideration. By all
means such of them as are willing to
hedge their support to our nominees
,hould be invited to participate in our
primaries.
California is acknowledgement,

ate Legislature of that State. Her mod
rate Democrats are also displeased with {

aust be discarded. California wants to
o Republican; and she will do 30 if I
republicans will let her. So ofOregon
here, the party, after having been di d
ided by chickering's and feuds has at
myth, after undergoing the wholesome
essons of defeat, consolidated upon .
satisfactory basis. With the
ei2 of the Amendment and a strong
ull all together by our friends We shall
edeem the web-f.et and bring them
gain within the folds OF Republican:sm.
If the Republicans of this coast are ?
rue to themselves, to the interests OF =
heir States, and to the well being of i,
aeir party, Nevada, California and {
'ce2on will become enc harmonious O
ethical whole. Will they DO so?
