The above 10 . fair sample Of the
veneity and mendaeity Of the pismirs
portion Of the Independent press. ii Is
not only false In theory. but false In
fact. Not only did the Republican
party at the last election elect candidates
not endorsed by that mongrel convsn-
ton styled Independent. and patron
ired By. sutro with . stolen proxy. which
met at Carson. nominated a Lieutenant
Governor. and endorsed . majority Of
the Democratic ticket; bat tho Rspubli-
can party elected q United States sena-
tor over all combined opposition. To
show how ioolishly tho Crescent draws
upon itself the record in asserting that
NO ono was elected by either party
last Fall who did not receive
Dolly Warden endorsement, we may re-
mark, that not liking either candidate
for Lieutenant Governor. tho Carson
Convention nominated Hatch OF Reno.
a. an bdepcnderd candidate. Adams
wa elected and the vote received by
Hatch was comparatively Insignificant.
The State Controller and Treasurer. one
q Republican. the othcr q Democrat,
were endorsed by tho Independents.
How many votes either lost by having
received the Dolly Warden blessing viii.
perhaps. mover DO known. Suface II to
say. that to their popularity and good
record. not Dolly vsrdsnism. was due
their reelection.
And so We may 60 on. Tho Dollies
tried 10 guess who were the most pop
ular candidates nominated by the reg
ular conventions which had preceded
their monsrsl gathering. and then en-
dssvored by endorsing such to gain the
credit Of slscting them. They showed
not merely that they were numerically
weak. but s1ecrablo guesser. We have
paid more attention to this subject than
II demands. Tho Dollies endorsed
Stewart ; whitehiil was elected. They
endorsed Hillhouse and Bslknap. Beatty
and Earll were elected. They didn't
like either candidate for Superintendent
Of Public Instruction; endeavored to get
aworthy and talented young gentleman
10 disgrace himself and ruin his politi-
cal prospects, BY accepting q nomination
at tho hands Of this hybrid conclave; he
refusing. they withheld their support
from both spencer and Kelly. Yet the
latter Was elected. Last, but not least,
the Carson Convention endorsed Col.
Ellis a. candidate for Member Of Con-
gress. That gentleman. II we remsn-
Der correctly. addressed tho mighty con-
course assembled in convention, thank.
ing them In grateful accents for their
distinguished and powerful support.
''Bill" woodburn beat Ellis BY a
large majority. Thus ends the list. in
which II thsro be any ammunition for
Dolly Warden ordnance. tho Crsscoi In
welcome thereto. The plain truth Of
the matter is simply this: Independent
voters arc NJ numerous in Nevada as
elsewhere. which only goes TO prove
their intelligence and capabilities As
electors. But tho Independent party In
Nevada was mover anght but a prsten-
tious fraud. q puff. ball. a small compa-
ny enlisted for q raiding expedition.
each Of whom was in search Of q CON-
mission o. commander. There will al
ways DO Independent voters. Every
slector should exercise his rights In this
respect. But there need DO no less In
dependence Of thought and action in the
ranks Of existing organizations than
within that Of q now party. And every
sennblo man knows this TO be the truth.
