ACTUAL RESIDENTS.

The Democratic State Convention
for the purpose of electing six dele
gates to the National Convention al
st. Louis, meets in Carson to-day
The delegates have nearly all been in
structed by their constituents to vote
for no man to represent Nevada in the
National Convention who is not an
actual resident of the State. The ma
jority of the people of Nevada are get
ting tired of being represented in ma
tional legislative bodies and political
conventions by citizens of California.
The course of our Senators have
brought the custom into disrepute.
Since Nevada was admitted as State
it has never been representented in the
Senate by bona .ide resident. James
w. Nye while Senator, made biennial
pilgrimages to Nevada to make stump
speeches, but his family was never in
the State. w. n. Stewart, after his
election, built palatial residence
in Washington in q locality where
through Boss Shepherds influence,
the whole United States assisted him
in improving the streets and beautify-
ing its surroundings, and as Senator
from Nevada and Attorney for the
Central Pacific Railroad, he spent
his whole time outside the limits of
the State. The same is true of our
present Senators, j. p. Jones and Will
liam Sharon, neither of whom have
spent twenty-four hours in the State
since their election, or appear to care
o continental cent for its interests or
welfare outside of the bonanza mines
and the crooked railroad. Lot US
hope that the course of the Demo
Gratis in vetoing the nonresident sys-
tenn of representation will be adopted
by both parties. and that hereafter
residence as we'll as millions will be
made qualification for the Senator
ship by the party who has, SO far in
the history of the State. always sue
cceded in slecting them.
