sUrno AND THE INDEPENDENTS.

vada Of . meeting In Virginia City last
Tuesday and the proceedings thereof.
But II It be true that Nr. Sutro has
engaged to furnish money FOR a paper
to DO published In the in.eres. OF him.
sslf arst, aud the independents last,
we arc morally sure that such oIer
will no. be accepted by a majority Of
the ss-calied Liberals In this State.
While In every party, or factisn OF
party, there will be found political
plundsrcrs, moral lepers and ambi-
tlous dsmagokues; there will also be
found conscientious men. In our opln-
lou the Liberals Of Nevada hare about
their duo proportion Of both ele-
msnts. And rs In the two proml-
nsnt parties, the most inscriptions
sohsmsrs, and the worst eiemsnts arc
the most blatant and forward inform
Ing rings for their own selfish aggran-
~dizsinent. so IL will be found la this
latter organization. Those Liberal
Republicans who arc willing to enter
into = combination with this Assyrlan
adventurer to further his personal de-
signs aud aid them Ia obtaining coin or
ONCE, are not only traitors to the prin-
clpiss OF their party and the ayowed
objects Of It's organization, but mis-
represent tho sentiments Of those for
whom they assume to speak. Mr..
Sutro cares ne mora for tho Independ'
ents OF Nevada than no dcss for his
own promises. lie will sell oat the
one aud violate tho other as 10 has
before. Two years ago lie went, over
10 Reno to attend the Democratic
and Liberal Republican State Con-
ysntlons. lie was received with honor
and promised to do all In
his power to aid their cause. He
reason for going was utterly selfish.
He wanted TO DO sure OF kendall's
nomination. This secured he return
cd. Did he keep his word: Not
much. lie did noihln. for any n
bu. Kendall. For his election he
traded or every other candidate upon
the ticket he was pledged to support,
from Supreme Judge TO Constable.
And he will do l. again. We reiters,e
our opinion, aud We have soma ln-
formation on thl. ssbj.et, that any
combination OF the independents OF
Nevada with tho champion swindler
and monopollst Of tho country Is or
will be made by n halt dozen or los,
ambitious scoundres who arc ayer
ready to sell out to tho highest bidder,
whose sole Inspirations are Office and
coin. Apropos OF this matter No ilnd
the Nevadd Tribune, the only repre-.
sentative OF tho Liberal Republican
element In Western Nevada. utterly
repudlates tho idea Of any such un.
seemly and unholy alliance. Its ed.
tor dossa't believe that Independence
In politics can be secured by selling
out : Sutro. And In our opinion III,
Tribune In tho following article, which
We publish entire, speaks the senti.
msnts Of not emily those gentlemen
who advocated the election OF Greeley
and Brown for honest purposes and
lnpellsd by jus. motives. but Of 4 very
large majority OF electors who still
adhere to tho fortunes OF tho Older
parties:
IL Is now known beyond adoubt that
Adolph Sutro Is candidate for the DO.
sltlon OF United States Ssnstor. and
that the new paper shortly To be start.
81 In Virginia City will be In ths IN.
terest OF the redoub;a5le tunnel man.
Much speculation occurs as 70 wha,
stand the gentleman will take poli,l.
cally. He cannot possibly advocate
Independence " he 10 to be the cssdi-
date. The Republicans don't want
him. the Democrats won't have him,
and the Independents can do very well
without HIN. II hs oms out an sp-
ponsnt 10 monopoly. no will be the
laughing stock OF the whole civilized
world, and ~ We really feel q. n loss
where to place the poor man. D. all
the sublime cheek that the history OF
modern times ~ tell OF. the candida
cy Of Sutre boats all. At n tims when
the mouth OF every voter In tho land
10 stuffed full OF monopoly. TO bring
out the protector OF the mos, gigantic
monopoly OF the whole world 10 dccid-
sdly ths riches; thing wa ever heard
or Give us Bill Stewart iirst-ana We
would rather support Chief Winue-
mucca for the office than he. Sutro for
u. 3. Senator.-oh, ye gods and Little
flshesl We have heretofore advocated
the aid OF Congress in the prosecution
OF the work In the tunnel. on account
OF its being an outlet from tho CON-
stock, aud tho possibility OF its being
. means OF esress from the mines Ia
case OF fire or other accident; but TO
send Sutro to Congress, and thus place
the interests OF the people OF Nevada
In the hands Of European capitalists,
IL beyond the stretch of our i~ibersllty.
Senator Sutro, Senator Sutrs, Senator
Sutro! We must be excused for repeat
lug the name 80 often. for We want to be-
come accustomed thereto In conntc.
tien with the responsible o.lice. The
acme OF ~lmpudence was never reached
In tho history OF American politics
until Adolph Sutro announced himself
candidate Tor United States Senator.
Why. tho gentleman Ia not even a con
structiys resident OF the State Of Ne
vads. lilo never In his life dll any
thing for the State, has no claim Oh
the people OF the State. aud IN cur esti.
nation Is as much an alien ne though
he had never left his native Europe.
The people Of Nevada have arrived at
the concluslon that there are men Ia
the State able 10 represent them In
Congress, aud that they can get along
without the dictstion OF foreign cap
italists. Tho thing appears 40 exceed
ingly ridiculous that we eau scarcely
believe that Mr.. Sutro, with all the
cheek that must be- granted him. would

all 2ppearanco of manhood, as 10 ask
