THE H. sag"

As was to be expected, there are r
mors Of a split in tho Republican ranks
Of legislators now assembled in Carson,
and II is alleged by the ''knowalls" that
some ten or a dozen Republicans will
uni.s with certain Democrats to elect
q compromise candidate as U. S. Sem
aior. This is the old gag" We have
heard 1t every year that a Senatorial
election came of in Nevada. Two years
ago Il Was proclaimed widely, but when
the vote was taken. Republicans with
singular u~nanimity, voted for the strong
est Republican candidate. So it will be
now. We do not bslieve-thsre is no
reason to do so-,hat Republican legis-
lsiors will so far forget their party ale
glance as to aid in its disintegmtion by
going over to the enemy's camp. Still
less will they forget that to the friends
Of the Republican candidates for U. 5.
Senator are they indebted for their own
election. The issue was made in the
campaign, and should there have been
decided. We certainly believe 1t was
then settled by the people who should
10 U. S. Senator. And the individual
thus selected 10 net a compromise can
didats. His name Is Vim. Sharon.

The Mystery Of Chung Fow.

From the Truekes Republican, Jan, 81
There is still an unravoled mystery
about the death OF the Chinaman found
last Wednesday on the Central Pacific
Railroad. about a mile east OF town. He
had been employed by Lonkey & Smith
at or about Prosser Greek. and in the
morning started for Truckee to purchase
some articles for his brother. He had
whom he started $40 % in his pocket,
and the same amount Of money was
found on his person. II is reasonably
inferred that he did not come TO Truckse.
One Chinaman says that no was struck
by the engine OF a train which passed,
but this seems altogether unsatisfactory,
~ II that was the case IL would be i'm
possible for his body to DO found lying
on the track and unmutilatsd. The China
men have evolved n theory which seems
to be quite as reasonable rs It is in.
genious, viz: That Chung Fow was
standing very near the track when the
train passed. The train passing swiftly
caused a rush OF air toward him no
violent that when the rear car passed q
was formed which was so sud-
denly filled that Chung Fow was thrown
to the ground with great force, causing
injuries which produced instant death.
All theories involving the s%upposition
that he was riding on the train are UNI
satisfactory, from the fact that he was
not seen by any Of the men in charge.
DIR. Curless was summoned to the in
quest and found THAT the body was
yet warm, had received q very heavy
blow or fall on the right side or top OF
the head. busting the upper part OF the
frontal bone and tho right p%arietal bone,
thereby producing injury OF the brain
that would cause instant death. Also.
said Chung fow had his neck broken at
or between the lower cereal vertebra and
upper dorsal vertebra. This wound was
also sufficient to produce death instantly.
There vas q heavy bruiso on the right
shoulder that would have caused great
injury" etc.
An inquest was held before Justice
Keiser and the jury were unable To de.
termine whether Chung fow's death was
caused by accident or intention.

couture was arranged a Ia Refine with n
large C~hatelaine braid. through which
the bridal vail was fastened. The floral
display was exceedingly attractive. the

OF flowers. The ceremony took place in
the front parlor. Tho bride was escorted
into the room by her father, the groom

TOR OF assuming that whenever a legisla-
tor takes his seat in the Assembly or

appear, and that henceforth such le.is-
lator is TO do as he pleasss regardless OF
the desires or wishes Of the friends who

that ii will not suit the majority OF the

the present Senatorial contest. First
We assume that not a single Republican
legislator is prepared. o has he any
desire to vote for other than a Republic
can for U. s. Senator. Sscond-Ws as
sumo that no candidate for the Legisla-
ture. on tho Republican side, publicly
pledged himself to support Vim. Sharon
or any other named individual. Unlike
the Democracy. Republicans had conf
dence enough in their nominees to trust
them TO carry out their wishes without
the application or enforcement OF a gag
law. Third-we assume that Of the
prominent Republican candidates before
the people for the high Office referred to,
he who has been most instrumental in
securing the party's success has highest
claims to its support. other things being
equal.
From the beginning Of the late cam
paign. Vim. Sharon has been a promi-
nent candidate for the ~Senatorship. Per
sonally. aud through the efforts OF his
friends. he has sustained and aided the
Republican party. Directly and indi-
rsctly, he has contributed both iniu-
sncs and labor to its success. The bit
tsrest shaft, of ~malignity and venomous
attack were launched at him until it
became evident that through personal
hatred to Mr.. Sharon. the foes OF Re
publicanism sought to overthrow the
party. We all know how the combined

ficiency is much greater as to their grain
supply than was at first announced. The
grain crop OF Russia, particularly, is
alarmingly deficient; so that, from being
a heavy exporter OF wheat, Russia will
have to send abroad for grain supplies.
This deficiency, moreover, extends to
the root-crops as well. So that we may
reasonably look for fair demand for all
our surplus grain, with the cash in hand
to pay for it. A foreign demand for such
products not only brings money into the
country, but also tayors cur rates of ex-
change for remittance to Europe to @
material degree; and this may establish
balance of trade against Europe and in
our favor, whereby our coin will be saved
from going abroad to meet balances
against us. as has been too much the case
heretofore.

THE decision Of the Supreme Court.
which we published last Saturday, linn
iting the city tax to sixteen mills for all
purposes, including railroad bonds. has
caused CONSERVATION among the city
bummers. They, have begun to feel
a realizing sense of limit to the
powers of City Council in the
matter of taxation. They have discoy-
cred that there is such q thing as
law that means what it says, and q
Supreme Court that knows what il
means. Their reliance upon the omnip,
otence of the City Council has been visi
bly, shaken; and the blessings of public
plunder, floating before their vision, are
materially frightened as they take
their flight. They talk now abou
getting the law changed at once
They will find that other people
will be looking after that movemen'
when it begins. They threateu likewise
to let the city fall into decay, and allege
that they can not Keep things in proper
order on the basis Of twelve mills as
sessment. Very well; then let them re
sigo, and the people will find the mer
who can. !.
