REPUBLICAN RALLY.-Had any,
thing been required to demonstrate
the overwhelming strength of the
Republican party in Western Neva-
da, the meeting last night certainly
filled the measure. Never before in
Storey county has there been such
an outpouring of the people. In the
days of the Wide-Awakes and
" Broom Rangers " it was thought
that large crowds were gathered, but
they were as shadows compared with
the immense concourse of last night.
Our local columns tell of the pro-
ceedings, and we need here but say
that the great gathering presages a
complete and glorious victory for
the grand old party in the coming
election. Where hundreds attended
the Democratic ratification meeting,
thousands crowded around the Re-
publican stand. While we write, in
the early morning, the roar ot'the
retiring host continues to beat in the
street; it comes up through the night
like the peans which herald a victory
already won; while to the troubled
breasts of Democrats, who are try
ing to sleep away the nights impress
sions, every echo must fall like a
funeral dirge, and the scenes of the
evening, like colossal spectors, hang
round their couches and veX their
troubled dreams.-Ente'prisc, 10.

great Indian fighter. scout and mining ex-
plorer, and has figured very conspicuously IN
the history of the Rocky mountains for many
years He was engaged as ascout by the Bag
Horn Expedition, but after being out for
short time, was compelled. through weakness
and debility. to return to Fort Steele, where he
fingered till death relieved him from earthly
care. He informed the writer OF the I1osS'h

IN the Enterprise, of Sunday morning, is the
| following synopsis of the speech of the lead
ing speaker at the grand ratification meeting,
held in front of the International Hotel Nir-
ginia City, on Saturday evening last
Hon. G. E. DeLong was introduced. and as
| he advanced to the front of the stage was
! heartily cheered. The gentleman made a
| most able, eloquent and telling speech, and
from first to last was listened to with the pro-
| foundest attention and was frequently and
heartily cheered as one after another he made
his telling hits. He began by giving some
count of his grand career in Japan as United
States Minister to that country. He then
proceeded to show why the Republican party
should take credit to themselves and glory in
what they did when the Stars and Stripes
were being trailed in the dust and trodden un-
der foot by portion of the States of the
Union in open rebellion. He showed the
weakness of the argument of Colonel Ellis,
who, night or two since, at the Democratic
ratification meeting, declared that previous to
the great rebellion the Republican party
purely sectional that i'll order to preserve the
Union what was known as the Union Repub-
lican" party was formed, and that after the
rebellion had been put down the Union Re
publican" party vanished into thin air, leav-
ing but the Republican party standing where
it did before the war therefore the Republi-
can party have no right to say that they pre-
served the Union. He also made mention of
the TACT that night or TWO since, AZ the DEM
ocratic ratihcati mesting, some there Were
most profuse in their expressions of love for
the ''old tag''-they had loved it ardently and
loved il eVer-when but a few years ago they
were Offering their hv in order that they
might see it pulled down and trodden in the
dust To General Williams he also paid his
respects showing where and how he had
ainas--d his wealth. where he held immense
possessions in Oakland, and asking if anybody
had ever heard of his scattering either gold
or greenbacks in Washoe. He gave Sutro
passing shot and, in short, had something to
say in regard to almost everything and every
body anywhere visible in the political horizon
of Nevada. As for himself, he said he WAS
still in the field and on the war-path. Mr..
De Longs was very able and convincing
speech, at its close the little gentleman was
heartily eheered.

pedlars have been in the habit of
visiting this place and selling
liquors by the bottle or demijohn

completely monopolized the bottle

On Saturday last complaint was
made, and one of them, a driver for
Madam SuitZ, of Virginia City, was
arrested. un hearing OF the case
before Justice Gould, the man was
fined S25 and costs, amounting in
all to something near $40. That
