DAILY SENTINEL.
TUESDAY. NovEMBER IS. 1877.


And nov the Republican press Of the
Fast IL beginning to rake Senator shar.
IN fore and aft, for his absence from
his seat 10 the Senate. Things are get
ting cloee, and bis vote IL needed in
the Louisiana cases. 1t is for political
reasons solely that these Eastern edi-
tors desire his presence ct the National
Capital. The people Of this % are
also anxious that he should hasten to
his post, or give way to some person
who will represent them on the great
questions now claiming the attention
If Congress. We want him on the
silver bill, and it is barely possible
that his vote, or the lack Of it, may de-
termiue the fate Of this important
measure in the Senate. Well-informed
persons who have canvassed the
situation. put up the fight as
remarkably close. This being the
Ease, Mr.. Sharon should, by all
means be on hand to aid with his vote
the people who have honored him with
. seat in that august body. If the bill
should perchance fail through his AL
sence, the Rere,ue thinks bis consiitu-
ents would make it so lively for him
that he would pray for the Palace
Hotel to fall upon him. But. maybe
Mr.. Sharon il not for the remonetiza-
ton of silver after all. Who knows +?
A good many Of the San Francisco
money changers and bankers are not.
Mr.. Sharon may be of the number.
The Omaha Republican. viewing his
case from a partisan standpoint. goes
for his scalp in the following vigorous
and u~udigniisd style: "what q re-
Election on Senator Sharon's inexcus-
able absenting himself from Congress
was the anxiety and determination of
the patr otto and dying Morton to will =
in q few days of his desth to be in his
seat in the Senate! 1t is high time that
this wealthy snob should feel the power
of public opinion in a way to awaken
his sense OF manly self respect at least,
if he possesses any. II he still proposes
TO absent himself. he had better either
die or resign, and get credit for at least
one decent act"

The Ward Refer 10 an outspoken
little journal. 1t is, perhaps, . bit too
independent for its own good. II Il
does not like . thing. 1t says 20 Ia the
plainest and shortest way. We ad-
mire this festure in our sprixhtly
neighbor of Ward. Commenting on
. communication IN . recent issue OF
the SENTINEL. which We gave . place
without Endorsement. IL says:
A correspondent Of tho Eureka SEN
TfNEL. writing from virxiuis City.
speaks Of q movement on foot in the
western part Of the State in the interest
of Governor Bradley for United states
Senator. Bradley has made . good
Governor, but, as II we'll known. does
not possess . single qualification for
the duties OF q United States Senator.
1t is too ridiculous an idea To entertain
to think of "Oid Broad Horns" for
Senator. The slate makers invariably
urn their eyes in the direction OF men
who have money to sQuander on hon
ors, aud who require the services Of
men who make q business of politics.
This time Eastern Nevada should have
. United States senator. regardless of
. money consideration. Storey county
and California should be counted out
should give us = rest. 1t might be pos
sible to scare up in this portion Of the
State some obscure individual capable
OF filling the bi!l-one who Is at least .
resident OF Nevada. We're IL not for
the name of the thing. the Legislature
Of Caliiorri ia had IS well be delegated
the power Of electing United states
Senators for Nevada.

A POSTAL

The Gold Hill News makes the fol.
lowing good point against a regulation
Of the Postal Department at Washing
ton:
There is one grievance demanding
redress, which we believe has nevsr
vet been brought to the notice of our
National Legislature. It 10 . regula-
ton in our Pcstoffice Department. A
few days ago Q gentleman of Gold Hill
sent Dan De DULLES book, "Tbe Big
Bonanza" TO . friend in New York.
He naturally wrote bis name on the
fly-leaf, with an appropriate dedica-
ton, as is customary in presenting a
book. The package was weighed in
the Office here aud SO cents In stamps
affixed. The New York Office opened
the package, discovered the writing,
and imposed an additional tax OF e SO
upon the party to whom it was ad-
dressed. The postage on that book
cost nearly q much ~ the prico Of the
volume itself.
Why packages of printed matter
should be opened and ~rsnsacksd, TO
wee II violation Of the regulations OF
tho Postomce Department has been
psrpetnted, has always struck us ~ .
very great stretch Of omcial power.

hitting such authority 10 . nuisance
and . humbug. and ought to be
amended forthwith. There might be
some excuse for compelling the sender
Of . printed package to exhibit It to
the Postmaster whore mailed, but to
suffer it to be opened by the Nasty
after reaching ito destination, Is simply
outrageous. We join with the Nescs
in calling the attention Of Messrs.
Jones and Wren to this matter.
