NEVADA POLITICS..
Serious Opposition to the Election OF
Sharon - The Sergeant at Arms
e Fight.

CARSON, January 3d.-The various
communications made in the interest
of the numerous candidates for office
of both Houses partially overshadow
the Senatorial contest. There is no
doubt that some twelve to fourteen
Republican Senators and Assembly,
men are serious in their opposition to
the election Of Sharon, and some few
openly express their intention to re-
main away from the Senatorial eau
Gus tonight. A secret call was made
for the Republican opposition to
Sharon to meet, which was not entire
ly successful. No definite plan of ac-
ton was decided upon, though Su-
preme Judge Hawley was mentioned
rs compromise candidate with the
disaffected ones. The Democrats and
Independents agree to unite with
them. Sharon will arrive tomorrow,
and then active work will commence.
The Sergeant-at-Arms fight assumes
prominence, with probability of the
success of Rending.
Governor Bradley is seriously i'll a
change for the worse having occurred
to-day.
Helm, of Ormsby, will probably be
elected Speaker of the Assembly.
Important bills are now being pre-
pared affecting the interests of the
Central Pacific Railroad, one being the
eompulsiOn of a fencing of the entire
road in this State,

OF late years, republican ideas have
made rapid progress in Spaini and
although the Carlists-a majority of
whom, it was known, were really Al
consists fighting for monarchy-may
lay down their arms to the new crown
head, the, Republicans will not be so
easily persuaded out of their liberties.
This party must continue in the field
against all monarchists, in whatever
guise they may appear. The Demo-
Gratis may be driven from one strong
hold to another, but the folds and fast
nesses of the Sierra Morena and other
mountain districts will afford them
just as good shelter for guerilla war
fare as the forests of Cuba do to the
patriots who have taken defensive
refuge beneath their shades. The
amount of resistance that may be
offered to the royal troops can only be
measured by referring back to the
gigantic struggle sustained on the
part of the Spanish mountaineers
against the first NAPoLEoN's invading
hosts. From what has been said it is
easy to infer that the reign of ALI
FoNsO will be a brief one. And as
there is little likelihood that Ameri-
can forbearance will be neither appre-
ciated by the Spaniardg nor of service
to their country, there no longer exist
any reasons why the Virginius claims
should not be vigorously pressed with
out further delay. Secretary FISH
has been long enough playing fast and
loose with Cuba. 1t is now high time
to demand that belligerent rights
should be at once conceded to the
patriots in that island. And if the
people there really want to become n
part and portion of these United States,
we don't see that the bluster of Spain,
the frowns of BISMARCK, or the pro-
tests of Britain should stand in the
way of adding another star to our flag
by acquiring the gem of the Antilles.
The truth is, that we want stricter
observance of the Monroe doctrine,
whether it touches European powers
or NOT. u tHe "A. Is.

The Railroad.

Engineer CRAWFORD, with party
of assistants, left yesterday for the
vicinity Of .Cainn Pass tnaeommences
running lines for the Los, Angeles and
Independence Railroad. The company
is now organized. Senator JOHN 2.
JONES is President, and will prove nc,
mere ornamental figure-head. He is
worker in whatever he undertakes,
and his vast means and untiring en-
ergy, he will move the work along
more rapidly than the croakers now
dream of. TRANoR w. PARK and
JAMES A. PRICHARD are men Of
money and energy. The latter gen.
tleman is Secretary of the. company,
and will give the work his personal
supervision. f. p. f. TEMPLE is
Treasurer. To the people of Los An
geles We need say nothing of Mr.
TEMPLE; a man Of great wealth, he
does not hesitate to invest his money
in public enterprise with the same
liberal hand that has caused so many
to return thanks for the prompt assist
ance of-which they stood SO much in
need, On behalf of our, railroad he
has labored assiduously and spent his
money freely, and the. successful ip-
auguration of the work is in the main
due to his untiring efforts andfopen
purse. g. J. SLXusoN, Of this city, is
one of the incorporators. He is one of
our live men, and is as remarkable for
his energy as promptness of action.
]. U. CRAWFORD, Chief Engineer of
e the road, is well known in this vicin-
ity. He is master of his profession,
and believes in hard work and steady
strokes. The public will see that
the men at the head of the en-
terprise are the best that could have
been selected. They have the means,
energy and ability, and if fairly as
sisted will successfully accomplish
what they have undertaken.

Misunderstood.

In an article ON A the reported candi-
dates for Governor and their merits and
qualifications published in Wednes-
day mornings HERALD we used the
following language respecting Gov
ernor DOwNEY: 1.'' Y.
Last ON the list comes our townsman, ex-
Governor DowNEY. The Governor Is young,
handsome, rich, liberal to a fault, but as the
HERALD cannot support him of course his
chance of election is just no chance at all.
Some one has informed us that this
is construed into disrespectltoward the
Governor. 1t certainly was not so in
tended by the HERALD and we take
this occasion to say that all who so
censtrue it misinterpret our meaning.
Personally we are friendly with Gov
ernor DowNEY. Politically We voted
for him for Lieutenant Governor, and
stood with him in the same party as
long as it had a local habitation and
a name. We have now no personal
quarrel with the Governor. AS pri-
vate citizen we respect and esteem
him; as politician we regard him as
one of the shrewdest in the State. AS
candidate for governor or any other
public office, the HERALD claims and
will maintain its right and privilege
to discuss and comment upon his past
official record and express its opinion
of his qualifications and capabilities
for the public position to which he
may aspire. In doing this We shall
deal fairly and speak truthfully of him
and of all other candidates for office.
This Is the prerogative of all public
journalists and we propose to exercise
it, peaceably if we can-but exercise it.

THE Los Angeles and Pacific Raif
road Company held a meeting IN
Wednesday night and decided to push
their enterprise ahead as rapidly as
possible. The object of this company
is to build railroad from this city to
the ocean, striking the water at what
is known as the "Salt Works. The
line of the road is directly through
the Centinela grant, and that com
pany is largely interested in its con-
struetion.. rhe ronte is a good one

A Little More Corruption.

SAN FRANCISCO, January 7th.-The
session of the Investigating Commit
tee of the Board of Supervisors yester-
day afternoon, throws new light on
the changes in the assessment roll. In
two cases, testimony was introduced
showing that property paid taxes on
the amounts for which it was origin
ally assessed, while the assessment
roll now shows material reduction in
the amount of the assessment. The
tax receipts were produced showing
the payment of one of the assessments
in excess of the present entry on the
roll. The receipts are made out from
the roll after it has passed into the
hands of the tax collector.

The Big Show.

The 9th day of August will be long
remembered in the annals of Ravenna,
for on that day ono of the greatest
shows on the earth will give grand
holiday exhibition to our citizens. On
that day the famous John Robinson's g
Worlds Exposition will pitch it's tents
and present to the public the vast
wonders of grand Menagerie, Aqua
rum and complete Circus. Old John
Robinson's name and fame are too
well known to require much notice,
but this season he has gone so far
ahead Of all prior efforts, that we
yield him our personal Endorsement,
knowing how we'll he merits it. He
seems to spend his immense wealth
with a generous hand, and has this
season lavished over sixty thousand
dollars more upon his mammoth show,
which had already cost over one
million of dollars. The intrinsic mer-
it of his vast concern made him a sue
cess, and the old adage that "success
makes success" is fully proved by his
lifelong experience and the liberal in
dorsement of ministers and families,
as well as the public in general. He
has lately added several new features S
to his Caravan, including Giraffes, an
immense Rhinoceros, Sea Lions, Lab
rador Seals a giant Ostrich, the largest
performing Elephant in America,
Asiatic and African Lions, forty new
cages and dens of wild beasts from
every quarter of the globe, and also
added many new thoroughbred
horses to the Circus, and engaged
some of the best riders and symnasts
of Europe and America. The entire
show is SO vast that pen description
cannot do it justice, but we advise the
public to go and see it tomorrow, and
tho day will be ever after remembered
with pleasure. The grand street
parade, which is said TO excel any
thing in the United States, will take
place on the morning of the exhibi-
tion. Remember the day, Friday,
August 9th, at Ravenna. One day
only.

INsANE.-Last Saturday night a
German woman, named Wilhelmina
Schuch, residing on Pratt street, and
who came here from youngstown two
or three months ago, became suddenly
a raving maniac, and she. and her
child, about two months old, Were ta-
ken to the county Jail and placed in
one of the debtors rooms. Some
months ago her husband deserted her,
and that fact, together with cruel scan
dals said to have been reported about
her, are supposed to have produced her
insanity. On Tuesday, one of the
Trustees of Youngstown, and broth
er-in-law of the unfortunate woman,
arrived and had her removed to the
Newburgh Asylum. The child died
the same day, of cholera infantum.
