WAR.


There Is war In tho Democratic

revolt. It alleges that the ticket as
proposed Is weak; that not = nominee

denomlnated scattering" But this Ia
not all. The Sentinel does not con.
tent itself with grumbling. Il goes
farther. and announces its liked deter
mination-as interchangeable rs the laws

fidence Of either wing lfor IL IL plain

IL 10, however, that there Is a grave
and apparently widening breach In the
ranks OF the Bourbons, aud n which,
from present appearances, it will be
dificult to All up or bridge over. There
seems, In truth. no disposition between
the opposing factions to shake hands
across the bloody chasm OF "chlv."

that the war will DO protracted until

OF a prehistoric, a~nts-bellum age. the

opponents to drown all malice In the

Adolph Sutro through his journal, tie
Virginia Independent. has made some
very severe charges against Mr.. Kendall,
which may be described in the single ac-
cusation of bad faith. In reply, Mr..
Kendall denies the impuation. and while
announcing himself as a candidate for
reelection. challenges Mr.. Sutro TO a
public discussion of the matters in dis
pute between them. We scarcely think
the public would care to suffer the
proposed infliction. 1t has singularly
little interest in the peculiar relations
existing. or that formerly existed be-
tween Messrs. Kendall and Sutro. Those
matters. doubtless interest those gentle
men; but certainly the people of Nevada
care but little whether Mr.. Kendall kept
good faith with Mr.. Sutro or not. That
is only an affair of those gentlemen, in
which the public has neither art-nor
part. We. therefore, respectfully sug-
gest that the disputants settle their pri-
vate business without appealing to the
public to act either as moderator or arbi-
traitor. There is one point, however.
that has been brought out by the dis
pute that does concern the people,
and that is, that Mr.. Kendall says that
be is a candida for reelection. OF
this we would simply remark, that Of
course, the Democratic party can select
whom they please as their candidate for
Congress. We have no right to com.
plain, for it is a matter with which we
have no more concern than with any
other party nominations. We will, how
ever, take the libeIty of remarking, that
if Mr. Kendall is renominated, his oppo-
nent will surely represent the State OF
Nevada in the next Congress.

FINANCIAL Su1cIDE.-The Tennessee
Democratic State Convention has Just
been held at Nashville. In its declara-
ton of principles it adopts most OBJ.
jectionable resolution, viz. That when
not otherwise specified, the National
debt should be paid off in greenbacks.
This is all wrong. There is no doubt
that much of the debt was improvidently
contracted, that there was any amount
OF stealing and corruption connected
with its transactions, but that matters
not. The National faith, its sacred
honor are pledged that under all circum-
stances the public creditor shall be pro.
tected aud the most scrupulous punctil-
ious, good faith, kept with all who
hold the national obligations. That
cannot be done by the Nation giving its
notes. in way Micawber settled his
Indebtedness. Giving notes is not pay
ment, it is merely supplementing broken
promises with others of a no more relia-
BILE character. Such proceeding would
not be only dishonorable, hut unpro6t.
able, because in the future if the Gov
eminent found it necessary to raise q
loan, it could only be effected OF ruinous
rates in consequence OF former bad faith.
If the policy indicated by the Nashville
Convention was carried out, it would
simply be financial suicide.
