THE FORMAL EOMINATEON OF
JOHN p. JONES AS THE RE-
PUBLICAN CANDIDATE FOR
TIE SENATE OF THE UNITED
STATES FROM THE STATE
OF NEVADA.
Pursuant to the call for Repub-
lican caucus, copy of which, with
the names OF its subscribers append
ed. appeared in yesterdays AppEAL,
there was a meeting of the Republi
can members of the Legislature held
in the Senate Chamber last evening;
and then and there .fortv-nine Re
publicans took an unqualified pledge
to support Mr.. JOHN P JONES as
their candidate for the Senate of the
Uuited States. It is a significant
fact that Mr.. Jones name was the
only one mentioned in connection
with this Senatorship, though this
caucus was an open one and one in
which all Republican Legislators
who chose to do 50 might partici-
pate.
Thus have the staunch, faithful
and unpnrchasable Republicans of
the Nevada Legislature reechoed the
verdict of the people and given the
lie to the beggarly insiuuations
which have been vomited up upon
their personal and official characters
by q mean and urmanIy coalition
who, standing outside of the Capitol,
have presumed to fling their tlippant
inuendoes where they have net dared
to broach their unclean plans.
Thanks are due from this whole
people to the forty-nine true men
who have thus nob|y vindicated the
reputation of the Sage Brush State
and rescued its name from the pollu-
ton of infamous calumniation with
which hired press and a venal and
stealthy fragment of the lobby have
sought to besmear it.
This is splendid honor that has
thus been conferred on Mr.. Jones.
Come what may, lis victory is won.
This is the real triumph; this the
true yindication. We heartily con
gratulate him upon this magnificent
achievement of his aspirations.
That the names of those by whose
action this most excellent result was
perfected may be entirely identified
with this brief statement Of what has
been done by them we herewith APP
pend the names of the participants
in the caucus-each one of whom
voted ''aye" upon motion for the
adoption of the following resolution:
