The attempt of the Republican leaders
to carry their ticket on revival of the war
spirit does not meet with the approval Of
thoughtful northern men. The Springfield
MASS. } Republican, while supporting Hayes.
ventures to say this:
The renewal of the war issues by the
Republican managers, as party necessity,
has proved tolerably successful for the 80
days that it has been running. But there
are nearly 60 days more to the election. and
there are already signs of popular reaction
against it. Unless it is fed by fresh southern
outrages there is danger that this reaction
will take a deep hold and spread, and that a
majority of the voters will come to the con-
clusion that, one party not having been
able to put down the rebellion, abolish sla-
very aud secure peace after Is years trial,
it may be quite as well to let the other
party have turn at the job. Anyway, It
is false and cruel playing with fire that is
dangerous both to the players and to the

A correspondent at Carbonate, Ills,
writes that Gen. Logan. in his speech at
that place, admitted that he voted for the
salary grab bill and took and kept the
back pay but charges that Gov. Hendricks
did the same thing. He wants to know
whether the statement is true, or not
1t is not true. Gov. Hendricks was not
a member of the congress Forty secoud)
that passed the salary grab bill. Misery
loves company. and Gen. Logan is anxious
to extenuate his own offence in voting for
the salary grab act and taking the back
pay, by trying to show that better men did
the same thing; but in this case his charge
against Gov. Hendricks is untrue. Hend-

-
A Hayes Organ on the Vermont Elec-
ton.
The Spring Mass, Republican, sup
porting Hayes, INDUCES In some reflections.
suggested by the Vermont vote, which we
commend to the organs Of Hayes in this
state, as follows:
Some Of the stupider Republican organs
think it pretty absurd that any body should
see encouragement for the democrats in
the fact that they have increased their
vote 10 Vermont over that of 1874 good
deal more than the Republicans, so long as
the latter party has increased its majority
IRON 20, 303 to over $4,000. The state
ment that the same ratio In more evenly
balanced state would turn it oyer from the
Republicans to the Democrats is regarded
as especially absurd. Let us take case
and see. Massachusetts at the last cleo
ton gave Rice S3,639 votes, and CASTOR
Is, 1873 Baker, Phillips and Adams receiy-
ed lo.937, which may be disregarded, as a
plurality elects 10 this statej; Rice's plur
allty over Castor, 1906. Suppose that at
the approaching election Mr.. Rice's vote is
increased in the sane ratio as the Rrpubi-
can vote 10 ermnnt-33 per cent. he will
then receive lll,239. Suppose that Mr..
Adams's vote is increased over MIR. Gas
ton IN the same ratio as the Democratic
vote IN ermont now over that at the last
election-59 per cent he will then receive
ia, $40. Plurality for Adams over Rice,
1880. Do the organs see the point now Z

AN INTERESTING LETTER.

An interesting letter from our Cornu-
copia correspondent will be found in
our columns to-day. 1t treats of the
roads, the mines, and other matters of
general interest. AS might have been
expected by persons conversant with
the situation of Northern Elko. a new
county is talked of by the Cornucopians.
They are situated about ninety miles
from the county seat, which is separated
from them during the winter months
by almost impossible snow drifts, and
in the spring by oceans of mud. Elko
county. in the latitude of Cornueopia,
extends from Humboldt to the Utah
line, q distance of over two hundred
miles from east to west. The northern
part of the county contains rich grazing
and agricultural lands, and tue most pro-
ductive mines in the State for the num-
Der of stamps employed in reducing
ore. 1t is very evident that the people
of Cornucopia, Tuscarora and Bull Run
will make good showing for pew
county, and will succeed in getting one
with the seat of justice at Cornucopia
before many years. The mines are de-
veloping finely, and next summer may
give them the population to warrant the
new organization.

NO REDUCTION IN EeATRs.

A dispatch from San Francisco says
the Central Pacific Company will not
make any reduction in Passenger rates,
or issue excursion tickets to the Gen.
tennial. This settles the question
with many persons of limited means,
who contemplated visiting the Centen-
HAL exhibition, provided the rates OF
passage were reduced. Powerful cor
porations, however, care very little for
disappointments of that character,
their object being to make the most OF
good thing. The Central and Union
Pacific roads have the people OF the
interior at their mercy, and can de-
mand of the public the highest rates
allowed by law, for travelling over their
roads, so long az there is no opposition
route. To show that they are not
wholly heartless,. goods taken to the
exhibition and remaining unsold at
it's close, will be taken back free
This will be of incalculable benefit to
the people of Nevada, not one of whom
80 far as heard from, contemplate ex-
hibiting anything at the Centennial ex-
cept the collection of minerals gathered
by the State Centennial Commission
ers. The managers of the Central Pa
cifc might with advantage to them
selves. have exhibited more liberal
spirit in the Centennial year. AS it is
the only one that will occur during
their administration, they ought to
have sunk pecuniary considerations
in patriotism.
