voters in Nevada. He now takes q new
departure, and in his organ this morn
ing gives advice TO tho Independents in
Storey county. After the somewhat I'M
complimentary intimation that they, the
members Of the Independent County
Committee. are self-elected and have
no following. 1t is proposed with
characteristic effrontery thai the
present Committee disband that
the State Committee postpone their

tomorrow. for two weeks. 10 give the
honest miner (sfr. Sutro) q chance to

Mr.. Sutro finds himself out in the cold.
Republicans scorn him. Democrats can
not afford to take him into fellowship.
and his last resort is to ring in on the
Independents by attempting to dictate
the membership OF 4 County Committee.
This is very thin. We are probably a
well aware as anybody Of tho farcical
character Of the proposed new party in
Nevada this year; are pretty well posted
a. to its membership and the poor char
acter OF some Of its originatcrs. but there
are good men who have deemed 1t their
duty TO join that organization. and 1t is
those TO whom we indicate this attempt

to control the Independent party. ifper-

benefit. but for personal ends. He
does this not 10 elect good men,
but TO throw the influence OF
the new party in favor Of some tool
whom he hopes to get nominated by
either the Republican OF Democratic
Convention. This is his programme,
plainly indicated in his organ and map
ped out by his adherents. We prophesy
that IL will fail. While believing that
there Is no need Of m Independent
party in Nevada this year. that just as
good men can and will be elected with
out as with an Independent party organ

one OF which and by far the most in
furious. will be the control OF such pro-
jected organization by sutro and his
minions. No Independent or Liberal
Republican Of two years ago. who is at
all conversant with Mr.. sutro's political
pledges before the State Convention at
Reno and non-performance thereafter,
will trust him out Of sight. He betray-
ed the party he was pledged to support,
and traded q whole ticket to elect one
man thereon.
The Sutro Dependent goes back upon
its pledges. This Is not unexpected.
Its master Is notorious in this particular.

when his fancied interests demanded. or

in his wake. In its first number 1t
