out question, we cannot doubt that
the election which is appointed for
this day will be complete and final
and that upon the announcement of
tho first vote had in either House OF
the Legislature, it will be officially
proclaimed that John P. Jones has
been chosen to represent the State
of Nevada in the Senate of the United
States, for the six years ending on
March 4th, 1879. Thus will termi-
nate, as in accord with the clearly
indicated preference of the people of
this State. one of the most notable
canvasses ever conducted since the
independence of this republic. The
promised advantages of Mr.. Jones
election are many and encouraging;
for it has rarely been the case that
any man has been chosen to q seat
in the Senate whose independence OF
the half score of great moneyed in
terests, whose agents and advisers
are so busy and so influential at
Washington is so manifest, and has
been known to be so cleverly gained
as his. Mr.. Jones will go to the
Senate with no obligations to repay
save the honest and efficient action
in their behalf put upon him by the
people of Nevada. To go to the
highest deliberative body in the
nation, as thoroughly untrammeled
member thereof is at once to hold an
enviable and dangerous position
enviable in that it carries with it an
entire freedom of action SO far as the
great questions relating to labor and

TO . weak man to wreak q mean and
narrow vengeance upon the individ-
uals and interests over whose oppo-
sition he has triumphed. tits in the
full confidence that Mr.. Jones will
employ his keen sagacities in doing
exact justice to all interests confided
to him as one of the representatives
from this Coast, that we lend him
our earnest and unhesitating support.
That his efforts will be constantly
directed to the welfare of his consti-
tuents and that no narrow antagon-
isms or petty animosities will sway
his action we most confidently pre-
dict.
The victory gained by this vigor-
Gus and fortunate gentleman is a
splendid one. He has marched no
impeded, over all obstacles, and is
now about to reach forth his hand
and take to himself the unmistakable
token of full rounded and completed
success. For one who came to the
promised land of California with no
better capital than perfect measure
of health and a rare allotment of vir-
ility each coupled with that health
full ambition which is felt by every
man of inherent force, this near at
tainment of Mr.. Jones ambition is
event. He comes from the
people, if ever any man did. In the
broadest sense of the epithet. Jones

not only not been consulted
with regard to his candidacy, but
wheresoever it put its kid gloved and
sweet scented opposition, thence has
it been oarelessly jostled out of the
way by an earnest disregard of arti
fetal and supercillious courtesies.
This successful man is very much a
man-not in any sense weakling; |
and he is about to be q Senator of
The United States because he set his
strong purpose upon gaining that
highest place in the choice of the
people and because he has proven
strong enough and courageous
to push aside all obstacles

of this mans good for
