The interview with Senator John p.
Jones, putlishedi In last evenings Nrws.
shouid be read BY every voter in the
State Of Nevada. independently OF his
political opinions. To Republicans, 1t
is hlled with words Of wisdom which
will appeal very powerfully to their po-
ihical convictions; Democrats will n

lowers OF q party, much TO admire
workingmen will realize from The peru
sal Of the interview. and especially that
portion Of II which treats OF Civil Ser
vice Reform and the evils Of Chinese
immigration. that in Senator Jones they
have . warm and truo friend ; that his
sympathies tend primarily to the masses
OF the people. and that their interests
are sale In the keeping Of the man who
has signalizsd his Senatorial term by
giving back to them the money which
the Bank Rings Of Wall street had
stolen from them. The interview Is u
compendium Of the Senator's views on
the leading issues which will enter into
the political campaign this Fall. and is
thsrsfore worthy the thouahtful atten-
ton of all citizens Of Nevada, whether
they be political friend. or foes OF John
p. Jones.
With regard to President Hayes theo-
ries Of reform in the civil service, the
Senator advances some new and impor-
tant views. Whether they will meet
with the approval Of the extreme Hayes
wing Of the Republican party. 1t is
hardly worth while to inquire. We have
kept our organization together in Ne
vada and approval or disapproval Of the
Presidents policy has not been allowed
10 create dissension In our ranks. The
propositiops laid down BY the Senator
ara 10 most of us new. and 10 all Of us
they will appeal with great force. The
danger Of an ~aris,ocracy OF perpetual
o~meo.holds,s ia certainly one TO be
fear.d. and one to be- avoided. R.pub-
licani.m means government by the
masses. aud there can be no government
by the masse. unless every voter in the

put an end to the evils which they are
bringing upon us. This is undoubtedly
the trus principle. The nation is, after
all, but = family on a large scale. The
country belongs to the Government. and
the Government. which means the ma
jority. has the same RICH, to exclude any
class Of persons from entering the
try to SOW discord and d~isssntions that
the head Of a family has to forb'd his
house to troublesome outsiders. In
laying down this broad proposition the
Senator ~grapples the bull by the horns.
wipes away with one stroke the Diff
cultiss raised with regard to the abstract
rights OF the citizens Of China. and
reduces the problem to one single ques-
tion: Do We want these Asiatics to con-
tinue coming to our shoresr II the
majority answers this question in the
negative. then our Senator proelaims
that there Is no power on the lace OF the
earth that ian prevent our excluding
them.
