TURNING our soLp1nKs.

During the Presidential campaign
las: fall it was charged by the " bloody
shirt stumpers and the Republican
rress that the g Confederate Congress, :"
as they delighted in lssylipg the House
eff Representatives, had discharged all
tbe attaches of the former House who
had served in the Union army.
Though this charge was refuted by
publishing the names of the-employes.
the regiments in which they served.
and the States from which they were
appointed, the campaigners continued
to rsiterate the assertion up TO the day
of election, and pledged the Republi.
can party. If successfal.' TO give the
preference to ex- Union. soldiers for
Federal Offices. The party succeeded
through the fraud of three men in
Florrla andf in Louisiana in count
ing in its candidate for the Presidency,
and now let 'us see how its promises
areslbeing fnlfiiled. In the Treasury
Departmen controlled By John Sherr
man, large reductions have recently
been made in, the number of the en-
pIoyes In reducing the force discrim-
ination was made against rather than
in favor of ex- Union soldiers. The
wives, mothers. daughters and sisters
of men who bad lost their lives in the
war for the Union were turned out,
though for aught that is known to
the contrary they we're as capable and
honest as>the sisters and daughters of
politicians who were retained. In sew
eral instances Union soldiers, whose
war record was nnexeeptionably good.
were discharged, saltheugh they were
generally admitted to be among the
most competent. men in the Depart
ment, and men who never smelled gun
power in the war for the Union re-
tained. Is any further proof .neces-
sary to show the hypocrisy and
deception of the managers of Repub
aicanism in the last campaign? In the
State of Nevada there is. we believe,
but one ex- Union soldier in the employ,
of the Federal Government. and the
Carson Appeal found him occupying a
subordinate position IN the Carson
Mint.

United States Senator from California,
to succeed Sargent. who has been
stranded high and dry by thesPinney
exclusion. The San Francisco Strck
Exchange in an article on Stanford s
candidacy. sayss There Sc are Some
people who are shrewd enough to
think that Pinney's return, hrs dis
closures and revelations are the result OF
little job put up by Leland Stanford to
get even on Cars, Sargent, 'Gorham
and Page. who went back on the
G. PR. n. at critical time" 1t
would. be strictly in accord with the
glaring Inconsistencies of modern Re-
publicanism to elect the President of
the Central Pacific Railroad to the
United States Senate as the colleague
of Booth. who was chosen because of
his opposition to that corporations.
