Stephens on Demauoaues.

Alexander Stephens, Of Georgia. In
q speech In Congress the other day,
attempted to draw a distinction
between what he styled true and false
demagogues. The genuine demagoguc,
he said. was q maa who led the people
and guided them. Tho sham demago-
que pandered to the vices and preju-
dices Of the people. 1t appears to us
that this Is an untcnable definition.
A demagogue Il one who seeks to lead
the people by pandering to their vices
and prejudlces and In this consists
the pernicious nature Of demagogism.
The true statesman Is led by his own
convictions, and chooses the course
which he earnestly believes to be the
best. The difference between the
statesman and the demagogue Is that
one looks to the ends which will, In bis
Judgment, most benefit his country.
while the other looks only to the
means which will best advance his
personal ends. To illustrate our conoep-
tion Of the statesman we may instance
Charles Sumner. 10 illustrate our
conception Of the demagogue we may
instance Newton Booth.-Sdc. Record.

The unprecedentealy heavy snow
which has lately fallen. taxed the en-
ergies of the Nevada Central Railway
Company to a great extent. but we
are happy to say that the pluck and
determination Of Superintendent Mes
bit and his assistants, proved effectiial.
The snow was so heavy on the summit
aud la the cuts, where huge snow
drifts were found. n large force OF
men were put 10 work to shovel OIL
the snow aud keep the road open. In
some Of the cuts the drift OF snow had
made MI accumulation to the depth OF
eight or ten feet. In the canyon, how
ever. where there Is no wind to cause
4 drift OF snow, 1t did not exceed Is
inches In depth. Yesterday a train Of
10 cars, containing five tons Of orc
each. were taken down to Bullionvllle
and the train was brought back IN
good tune and without casualty.
On Sunday last a rich strike was
made In the Page and Panaca, but the
mater was not made known until yes
terday. This strike Is an entirely new
ledge, which has been named the Gus
sic, and has been located by the Su-
perintendent philip Falk) for the
Page s. Panaca Company, under the
United States mining laws. The ledge
Is about two feet wide, and ores from
It assay as high as $596. OF to the ton.
Indications arc favorable to q speedy
development of the Page 70 Panaca
into a first. class mine. The work Is
progressing we'll, aud In our next re-
view we propose giving further notice
Of this mine.
There has not been an arrival Of =
