A BOLD AND PATRIOTIC ACT.

aging charges hurled against
managers Of the Democratic party in Ne
VIDA. and also against its platform OF
wind bags. by Mr.. Kendall. Not ono
word has thus far appeared. Those or
ans OF q dirty compromise have con-
ansd themselves exclusively to personal
abuse Of Mr.. Kendall. and criticisms Of
the time selected for throwing red hot
.ho, within their most filthy entrsnch-
msnts. They call him traitor, Judas,
hirslins. political harl0t, etc. but fail to
disprovs the truth Of one single charge
he made against their base and trucking
platform and attempt to sail ont the
Democracy Of Storey county to Mr.. Su-
tro and his swindle. This will never do
Msssisurs. Either Mr.. Kendall told the
truth or lied. And II he falsihed whom
he accused the Democratic managers Of
. base and ignominious compounds
with Sutre. 1t must be so shown. We
believe he told the truth. and the silence
Of his malignsrs is proof positive Of the
truth Of his charges.
And now after waiting several days to
hear from the Democracy upon this
vital question, We assert what from the
first has been eur calm. unbiased judg-
msnt, that Mr.. Kendall did q most he
roic act. one far above the common
grade OF political honesty; an act which
stamps him a. q bsnsfactor OF the pub
lie; . man above the fear OF party rep
rotation and party ostracism. And he
chose the most auspieisus moment for
this purpose. The occasion. when the
Democratic masses, ignorant Of the des-
picabls bargains Of their vile managers,
had assembled to ratify their acts.
Would the Democracy Of Storey county
have ratified the Democratic platform
and nominees, had they known bsiore-
hand that the whole public acts OF their
representative in Congress had been re-
pudistsd by the party managers in sto-
reg county, Were they then. are they
now willing to affirm and approve the
vile compromise made by these mana
gers with Adolph sutro' Are they will
ling to rspudiats the efforts Of the whole
Pacific delegation in Congress last
Winter. made against Sutro and his most
infamous attempted legislation And yet
this Ia exactly what Ten Williams and
his gang OF ssll-out managers attempted,
and but for Mr.. Ksndall's bravo er-
posure, would have secretly eonsum-
mated. We say that Mr.. Kendall as an
honest man, and q worthy member Of
the Democratic party-when he saw that
party prOstitutsd by its leaders to the
embrace Of the worst enemy Of Storey
c~ounty-did a glorious act in throttling
the whole wioksdnsss at once, and in
the face OF tho vile bsrterers Of honesty
and party fsslty. He did his duty TO
those honest men-whom webelisvs, COM
pess a large majority Of the Democratic
voters OF Storey county-vho were act
ing in the dark. who. believing they
were acting for the public as well as
party good. had been. unknown to then.
sold cut; their vote and influence bar
tered to the Assyrisn for the few vsnal
votes he assumes to control. Are the
people Of Storey county prepared to
support and endorse such d~espieabls
dsalingl Are Democrats prepared to
vsts for men whe dare presume to sell
them ou, to any party clique. for the sole
purpose Of advancing their own inter
ssts1 And 10 not . nan who tells the
truth about such ignominious double
dealing the best friend to the party as
well a. to the psoPlsl
We believe that Mr.. Kendall did right,
absolutely 30, both in his choice Of time
and place As well as in the graver duty
he performed Of telling truths, degrading
to the party though they have bsen and
are. Public duty is above all party feal-
ty. When = party is betrayed by its
