gotten. The Democratic rebellion was con-
quered, and history covers all the period
since. The Bloody Shirt" was buried with
the war, only to be rcsurrected by its in
vcntors years after that bloody drama had
closed its record. The clothing of colored
men with the rights of citizenship, and
their exercise of il in hostility to the
Democratic party in the South, was
the signal for enshroudiug the colored Re.

ern State. Recorded history establishes
this fact beyond controversy. The massa-
ere Of colored citizens in louisiana Missis-
sippi, Alabama, and South Carolina is not
denied, so proverbial has the fact become.
For years the Democrats have had their
Bloody Shirt manufactures in operation

cept and combat that issue or desert South.
ern Republicans 10 bloody fate. They
have elected to accept and meet the issue
aspresented by theDemocratic party and will
continue the conflict until the right to citi-
zenship and life is respected in every South
ern State and that party which exhumed
the Bloody Shirt is compelled TO return
1t to the grave from which they snatched II,
there to rest for all future time. When the
Democrats cease making Bloody Shirts by
the hands of Rifle Club leaders and follow
crs, and right and life are respected in the
South as at the North, then the Democratic
party will not be called upon to confront the
ensanguined garment. Until that time comes
it will constantly stand between that party
and success, and cannot be avoided.
But this is not the only issue the Demo-
cratic party will be called upon to meet in
its future contests for supremacy. Though
the war is over, its record lives, and the
Democrats must meet that. They have
shown themselves as open and armed
enemies to the country, and they cannot
escape that issue. The people lost all con-
fdence in the loyalty and integrity of the
Democratic party during that struggle and
1t has done little since to win that forfeited
confidence and respect back again. Since
it secured power in the House OF Repre-.

cripple the Government and embarrass its
healthy and vigorous administration. Its

The Nevada Ssnatorship.

BY almost universal acclamation
the Hon. John P. Jones is declared
the choice of the Silver State as his
own successor in the Senate of the
United States, and it now appears
~ though the Legislature would
only be called upon as matter of
form to cnnfirm this universal ex-
precision Of the people and press of
Nevada.
1t is seldom that United States
Senator can shape his course
and honor his high position So
~ to avoid calumny and de-
traction. The important and
delicate duties Of his position.
the varied interests that
ave vitality affected by his action, the
ambitions that are thwarted, the
aspirations that are disappointed,
must often and unjustly expose the
Senator to unjust aspersion, to
criticism and censure. More fortu-
nate than most of his compeers,
Senator Jones has not only estab-
lIshed himself rs n power in the
councils Of the nation, identified
himself not only as the advocate,
but as the creatsr of the financial
policy of the Government, but
while thus establishing his posi-
tion In the front rank Of the states.
men OF the day, has SO endeared
himself TO his immediate constitu-
sncy that partizanship is stilled,
detraction unheard, competition
impossible.
This is the present position of
Senator Jones, attained In the
highest walks Of craftsmanship,
without once appealing to political
prejudices or STOPPING to the arts Of
the demagOgue. The responses of
the Senator's constituents to this
exalted conduct, argues well for
the future Of the country. 1t shows
that republics are not always un-
grateful, and teaches that the
masses are rs prompt to recognize
~ they are ready to reward merit
and capacity; that in the avenues
Of preferment men may walk erect,
nor always find themselves out
stripped by those who crawl that
they may climb, and humble them
selves that they may be exalted.
Senator Jones's first appearance
in the Senate of the United States
surprised many who were ignorant
Of bis ability. Six years have
passed and to-day should be not be
reelected millions throughout the
nation would be alike grieved and
astonished.-Sdn Jose Mercury.

THE MAN WHO SWALLOWED A
WAGON WHEEL.-Some two years
ago, a man who called himself VIM.
Brazleton, advertised show at
the court house in Prescott, In
which, among other wonderful
things, he was to swallow wagon
wheel. He took the money at the
door and went out to rustic up the
rest of the troupe, who, as he said.
had just arrived in town, and were
making their toilet. He never re-
turned, neither did his troupe, and
now comes dispatch to the Gov
ernor saying Wm. Brazleton is
killed, and that he is the man who
had been robbing stages on his own
hook. He is in all probability, the
same man who didn't swallow the
wagon wheel. Miner.

How Virginia Foundry Lost 81, 900 Con-

Some weeks ago Messrs. Eckhart
4 Salkeld OF the Fulton Foundry,
submitted the plans of some new
machinery to the managers of the
Ontario mine in Salt Lake. Sew
eral other specifications were sub.
mitted, but the Fulton Foundry
plans were accepted as the best.
When the contract was about to he
awarded, the managers of the
mine at Salt Lake discovered
that 1t would cost them ST 600 more
on freight to ship the machiney
from Virginia City to Salt Lake,
than from San Francisco to Salt
Lake, and as q matter Of economy
awarded the contract to a San
Francisco mandatory. Thus,
by reason OF most outrageous dis
crimination on the part Of the Cen.
trail Pacific Railroad Company, the
Fulton foundry was deprived of a
$12, 900 job and thirty men were
kept out of employment pir0iaia
