Ha, Nevada Republican Government

-Four dollars for the privilege of votel
This raises the question whether the State of
Nevada has republican government, and if
not, whether under the new light which
shines on Congress. it Is not the duty Of that
body to see that Nevada is provided with such
o State government Senators and Repre-
sentatives from the Southern States were e1-
cluded from Congress for this reason, and if
those cases were justifable, they apply with
still greater force TO Nevada. There is nowin
this State hundreds of soldiers who served in
the Union armies through the war of the re-
bellion who are disfranchised by this demand
for four dollars before they can exercise the
privilege Of an American citizen. If Con-
gress Is sincere in demanding republican gov
ernments for the States, it should put
Senators Nye and Stewart on one Of the sofas
IN the reception room, and show Mr.. Fitch
the Capitol steps. This poll-tax is an outrage
which should no longer be ignored by Con-
gress, If this policy of interfering with the
States is to be continued. Either let the
States alone entirely, or treat them all alike.
We say, let every State manage its own affairs
after its own mind; but If Congress is TO e1-
ercise experimenting authority, let it be eI-
erted with the same care in one State as in an
other. This poll.tax prerequisite is thing
utterly unknown in the Atlantic States, and
II ought to be investigated. Although many
Republicans profess to oppose the law, their
Radical representatives in the Legislature
have gone on year after year amending and
re-enaeting its provisions instead OF repeal
iDgi
Nevada has never had a republican form of
government. The people never had any con-
troll over the affairs Of the State The organ
ization of State government was q fraud
and an outrage on the balance of the Union,
In the fret place. II has only about 49, 900
inhabitants now-not enough to constitute a
respectable county. Utah, lying alongside of
Nevada. has about 100, 900 inhabitants- Col
orado. Montana, and Idaho, all had a greater
population when Nevada was admitted than
this State has after six years under o State
government. II Congress would do what it
ought to do, IL would at once repeal the act
admitting Nevada into the Union, and reduce
the State TO Territorial condition again.
