If Sheridan's teacher and parents had
observed him carefully, they would have
seen that the boy, though dull in study,
was quIck-witted enough TO hold his own
with MS sehooi-ma;es.
One day the conversation among the

STAND BY SWIFT!

The best Sheriff in all Nevada is old Swift
He has had more experience in the business
of the Office which he has held so long and 80
worthlly than any man within our borders,
He ia a Republican of the best and oldest
standing. He was an old neighbor and per-
sonal friend of Abraham Lincoln He is an
enthusiastic Republican, always ready to
spend his time, his strength and his money in
behalf of his party. Such man, thoroughly
identified with the business life of the county
in which he has been for so many years res
ident, is to be esteemed and respected. Be
sides, Swift brings to the Office a courage
which cannot be doubted, an integrity which
is proverbial and capacity which is of the
most infallible character. No business COM
munity can afford to shelve such a man as
Swift. But there is little need to say all this
in his behalf He will be elected by an over
majority; and his fellow citizens
will again reap the benefits of his experience,
wisdom and honesty.

gibson VS.. MEDER.

In 1872 when the primaries we're held
here, nobody performed more effective
service in behalf of John P. Jones than
George ellison. Meantime Meder's head
was sore and his tone malignant, as
usual. ellison, brave, active, enter
prising, is full of the zeal and energy
needed in representative of the peo-
pie. You want bright business man
and not a crotchety impracticable for
your Senator. Moreover, we want to
re-elect Jones and not have his candi-
dacy hampered by any contingent tav-
ern bills or held secondary to the cleo
ton of any page. But no intelligent
citizen of Ormsby county needs any
urging to pronounce his preference for
live man like ellison over such a
chronic malcOntent as Meder.

BEAM FINLEY FOR ASSESSOR.

Our handsome friend Beam PiXley
will walk right over the course Bence
will be hOpcIessly distanced. Pixley
has shown himself a most capable Off
Ger and faithful public servant. That
is what makes US say what we do say.
He is a deserving Sage-brush boy. He
has wife and some babies and wives
and babies are of better assessable value,
when it comes down to candidates.,
than any dried and wizzled old bachel-
Orhood. So, friends and fellow Repub-
licans, stand in for Beam. He has
made splendid Assessor, and will con-
tinue to reflect credit and renown upon
that Office. The MORNING APPEAL
delights to pay its taxes under the am
liable assessing of such man; and the
feeling is doubtless general among the
taxpayers of Ormsby county.

HUBB. PARKER.

We don't believe there is any man
running for the Legislature in this
State who brings to his candidacy a
greater fitness than Hubb. Parker. He
is largely experienced, he is singularly
bright and capable, and he is watchful
wary and industrious. Such men as he
are the most safely entrusted with the

Republicanism; devoted of purpose in
his intentions toward Jones; Jealous to
serve his constituency, and accustomed
to all the business of the Legislature,
Mr.. Parker is one of the fittest men
possible of selection to the place to
which he aspire5. And what's best

ALFRED HELM.

The most thoroughly capable Court Clerk
in this State is Alfred Helm He is to the
affairs of the County of Ormsby what Father
King was, in his day. The old residents of
this baliwick would miss one of the most vel

should be left out of the Court House. But
he will not be left out. He will find his old
friends rallying to his banner as of old; and
for two years yet to come he will occupy the
desk in front of his Honor Judge Varian.
We congratulate the people of Ormsby county
upon the prospect of a continuance in Office

THE MEETING AT SHERIDAN.

We learn at late hour that the Republ;
can meetings at Sheridan yesterday, one of
which took place in the afternoon and the
other at night, were among the grandest sue
cesses of the campaign. The earnest ranch
men of old Republican Douglas, who have
always stood by the right politically, turned
out in full force, showing not alone by their
cheering presence but by their hearty applause
of the speakers, that they really meant bust
ness on tomorrow. Stirring speeches were
made by Governor Kinkead-how natural it
by Governor Woods, who work
ed the Douglas Republicans up to the highest
note IN the gamut of Republicanism. Doug
las County will give a rousing Republican
ma jority Tomorrow.

TURNER.

Among the solid men who are identi-

Fred Turner. He dates back to the
very early days of this part of Nevada.
He is associated with one of our oldest
and most popular families, is identified
with the interests of the county and is
thoroughly familiar with everything
relating to our domestic affairs. Also
be it said, that Mr.. Turner is one of the
most ob!iging and attentive officers we
have ever had. As with the other can
didates upon our county ticket, Mr..
Turner will be triumphantly elected.

He may be said to have been reared and edu-

FOR COUNTY TREASURER, JAMES
FRASER

When a mans name becomes synonym for
honesty and uprightness of walk and purpose,
his friends and neighbors like to ask him to
AXE upon himself positions of trust. That S
how it is that Mr. James Fraser's name comes
so naturally associated with the office of keep
er of the strong box of the County. 1t IS a
piece of absurd formality to ask a man like
Fraser to give bonds for the performance of
his official duties. Everybody who knows
him knows that he is worthy to be trusted
with uncounted gold. Everybody feels safe
when such man as Fraser is at the door of
the treasury. He will land Mr.. Yagers boat
high and dry and let him know that Ormsby
county is something else than place for the
encouragement of Dolly Vardens.

THE LAST GUN OF THE CAMPAIGN.

Republicans, you who have stood by the
victories and sorrowlng over its temporary
defeats, we call on you to turn out this even
ing at the Carson Opera House and show the
enemy that you are still true to the party that
has been true to the interests of the people
This is no appeal to trimmers, deserters from
the Republican ranks, or political soldiers of
fortune, but to the men who have been loyal
to the party that saved the Nation for us.
1t is intended to make to-night's meeting the
grand finale of a campaign to be finished to-
morrow at the polls with such glorious vic
tory as will gladden. the hearts of every man
who has patriotic impulse in him.
Mr.. Hammond and Mr.. Mighels, who with
to-nights labors finish an exciting and
splendid canvass of this battle born State,

will tell you what they know about politics
in Nevada; they will tell you how true are
the masses in Eastern Nevada to the tenets
of the Republican faith, and how anxious our
Eastern Republican friends are to know that
Western Nevada is prepared to meet them
and shake hands over the grand political vic
tory to be won tomorrow.
Ormsby's Republican County candidates
will be on hand tonight to talk to the people,
to give renewed assurance of fealty to the
old party, and to refute some of the ISLANDERS
circulated about them by mendacious and a
foe.
Once more, Republicans of Ormsby County,
We call on you to come out in your old-time
strength tonight, and to assist in giving the
final defeat to the rebel Democracy and their
more detestable allies the Dolly Vardens.

VOTE FOR COMBS

The Republican party Of Ormsby
county have ever had an eye to the in
terests of the county. Representation,
under its rules and methods has had
reference to the whole county, and not
a mere section of it. In the appoint
ment of representatives we have adopt
ed it as an unvarying plan to give EN-
pire fresh member every year. Sen
ator Martin, nominated and elected
last wear, and Mr.. Combs nominated
and to be elected this year, illustrate
this fair purpose of our party. The
Pinto ticket disregards this well-estab-
lished custom. Empire is left out in
the cold. Mr.. Combs is we'll worthy
Of the nomination he has received. lie

lished, have received the color and con-
saouence of law. We bespeak for Mr..

THE JUSTICE OF THE PEACE.

A strenuous effort is being made t.
seduce voters into the desertion of Capt
C. A. Witherell and the support of Mr..
Cary for Justice o. the Peace in Carson
township. 1t is a candidacy, so far as
Mr.. Cary is concerned, which exhibits
the true inwardness of Dolly Warden
ism. Never did man scheme more
persistently than he has for Office, while
at the same time endeavoring to have
it appear that his nomination was I'M
sought by himself. He has for long
time looked to the Democratic party
and to Democratic counsels as the
panacea for all political ills, while at the
same time shrewd enough to keep a
finger nail hold on the Republican
party. His idea of political action is
disorganizarion; his efforts for political
reform are always temporary, and begin
and end with his personal canvass for
votes. He has become an exceedingly
ready and apt instrumentality for the
disorganization of Republicanism in
this county under the facile manipula-
ton of Mr.. Garrard, the Governors
Private Secretary. His efforts for cleo
ton as Justice of the Peace are very
intelIigently directed by Mr.. Garrard,
through the proper agencies, for the es-
pecial purpose of securing in the As
sembly a member by the name of
Davies, a result toward which the Dem
ocrats could not in any regular manner
make the slightest progress. In
this way the old gentleman fOrgets
that he has heretofore been trusted by
the Republican party, and PIRATES con-
tinuously of the necessity of putting an
end to political corruption. Let us as Re-
publicans stand by Judge Witherell,
who has been always true to the best
interests of the county and State; who
has always sustained the true princi
pies of the Republican party, whether
in Office or as a private citizen who
has proved true to the land for which
he fought in the dark days of the re-
bellion. No Republican who is not
of his principles, or who is not
weak in the upper story, can fail to sup
port Judge Witherell at the polls to-
morrow. And, by the way, while we
as Republicans are doing this manifest
duty toward Judge Witherell, what
reason have we for emitting the same
line of action toward Leopold Stern,
candidate for Constable |
Reform lost its grip, or else a Demo-
cratic ground swell rolled in when
Mara was nominated on the Pinto
ticket Vote for Stern and Witherell,
and congratulate yourselves, voters,
that the Republican party has in both
,ases produced the best men.

| PLATFORM AND RESOLUTIONS OF THE CITIZENS
PARTY OF ORMSBY COUNTY.
We, the citizens of Ormsby County, adopt
the following as the platform on which, with
out distinction of party, we propose to make
the ensuing canvass.
1st.-We are opposed to any repeal, mod
ltication or change of the law taxing the net
proceeds of the mines
2nd.-We arraign the transcontinental
railroads for their uni st and oppressive dis
examinations in the matter of freights and
fares to and between points in this State, and
we demand prompt legislation by Congress
and the State Legislature for the correction Of
those abuses.
3rd.-That the General Government should
Immediately take such steps as to absolutely
stop the further immigration of Asiatics to our
country; and that such just and peaceful
measures should be adopted as may be appro-
pirate and necessary to induce those already
among us to quit our shores at the earliest
practical moment.
4th.-We repudiate and denounce the doc
trine that any public officer may disregard and
ignore the pledges made to his constituents
and on the faith of which he was elected; and
declare that if such practice be tolerated, it
will result in the destruction of representative
democratic government; and we declare that
no power exists which can relieve officials FROM
pledges made to the people previous to their
election.
5th.-That we view with alarm the increas-
ing and unceasing attempts of the moneyed
powers of the Pacific States to control the cleo
tions and shape the legislation of said States,
that the principle and practice are fraught
with danger to our Republican government,
and should be frowned down and resisted by
every individual who has at heart the welfare
of American institutions and the freedom of
the masses.
6th.-ReSoired, That the stock brokerage
business should be regulated by law and the
security of the people be protected by proper
legislative enactment
