GOVERNOR BRADLEY's LETTER.

At the time of the discussion of the
extra session of the Legislature ques
tion last January Governor Bradley s
letter in reply to that of State Con.
troller Hobart Was published in pam
phlet form, and copies OF it distributed
throughout the State. The Reno
Journal charged that the work Was
done at the expense of the State, and
the Eureka Sentinel copied the Journ-
ais statement. We are authorized. by
]. j. Hill, State Printer, to state that
the pamphlet was printed in his Office
at Carson and paid for by Governor
Bradley, without amy expense whatever
to the taxpayers of Nevada Mr.
Hobart, who. as State Controller,
audlts all claims against The State, can
substantiate the truth OF this statement.
Of course the Journal and Sentinel will,

dict the error into which they were led,
by publishing the fact as herein stated

ANDERSON's CASE.

The Administration is informed bv
agents sent to Louisiana to intercede
with Governor Nichols for the par don
of Anderson, the convicted Returniny
Board member, that their mission is
fruitless. Nichols, they say, will never
pardon Anderson while he is Collector
of the Port of New Orleans. Anderson
will not resign, but prefers to remain
In Jail martyr, and the President is
afraid to displace him, as in that event
he would be likely to tell some un-
pleasant truths lie lative to The manner
in which the vote OF the State was
changed. Anderson trunsacts the BUSH
ness OF bis Office in Jail. where papers
requiring his signature are seat, the
President is po~erless to help him and
afraid to remove him, aud Nichols, w o
was recognized as Governor, though be
received thousand less votes than the
electors, who made Hayes President,
is SO ungrateful as to refuse the re quest
of the Administration to pardon him.
1t must be admi ted that this Louisiana
business has u suspicious look and that
bargains made by politicians at Wash
ington hotels to subyert the will of the
majority, are not always fulfilled.

THE TRADE DOLLAR.

The powers that be at Washington
are apparently in favor of stopping the
coinage of trade dollars, which, though
containing more silver than half dol
lars, were refused for postage stamps by
order of the Administration, pending
the discussion of the silve, bill.
Though the Treasury Department is
opposed to any further coinage OF these
dollars, the bankers and business men
OF San Francisco show u strong feeling
in favor of them. They say the trade
dollar has rapidly installed itself in
public favor in China and Japan, and
to stop coming it now would seriously
affect the relations of San Francisco
with the Orient.

The Republican press Of West Nir'

Chandler Laboratory at Washington,
A half sheet supplement consisting OF
a report oran interview with Sena'
tor Window on the efforts Of the DEM
ocratic House to work a retreneh'
meut in the expenses of the govern
meut. Ifthis moral document proves
ANYTHING it is that it is useless Tor
the Democratic House to attempt to
make any saving in the expenses OF
the government so long as the Senate
is Republican and Republican de-
partments have the spending OF the
money. In his zeal to prove the
Democratic party guilty of misrepre-
sentation, the Minnesota Senator
shows not only that tho Repub-
lican Senate increases every appro-
priation made by the Democratic
House, but that every department
controlled by the Republicans ex-
ponds all that is appropriated and
calls for more; so that, he says it was
found necessary for Congress to pass
nine deficiency bills to give them all
the funds they demanded for squan-
dering purposes The obvious rene
DIV for the state of affairs inviting
Ily pointed out by this Republican
Senator is for the people to secure
harmony between the Senate, House
and the Departments by making
them all Democratic as speedily as
possible. Then the parsons who ex-
pend the money will labor with those
who appropriate it to keep down the
expenses OF the government TO the
lowest possible limit consistent with
the safety, dignity and honor of the
Republic. Everything else has had
to submit to reduction in price; why
should not the expenses of the Gov
eminent.

barges loaded with coaland salt, while
descending the river, and when op.
posite the head of Gallipolis Island
without any promonition whatever
one of her boilers exploded sending
some of the Inflated boats crew to that

turns, and badly injuring others, and
startling the citizens generally in
the vicinity of the disaster.
As soon as it was generally known
what had happened all who could
render assistance in any way did
what they could to relieve those in
distress. The steamers Boone and
Kitty Woods and many citizens in
skifs and boats nobly responded,
went to the rescue and rendered all
the aid they could. The excitement
was great and many were void of that
presence of mind so necessary under
such trying circumstances.

What Every True Democrat
Should do.
New York SUM-

New York Sun.
The humblest voter in the country
who is a sincere believer in true, JEFF.
fersonian Democracy, has an impor-
tant duty to perform in the election
of members Of Congress. Let him
take an active part in selecting dele
gates to the nominating convention,
and sec to it that no delegate is sent
who will vote for the denomination
of any man who stands OH the Con-
gressional Record committed to the
doctrine that Hayes title is sacred.
That doctrine is directly at variance
with every principle Of Democracy,
and no man pledged it is entitled
to Democratic support.
There are plenty of men for candi-
dates. No District is so poor that ii
contains only one Democrat fit to
represent it in Congress. There is
no particular reason for re-elccting a
man because he has been elected once.
On general principles, he may just
us well stand aside and let some one
else 90. But where he has voted for
| the declaration that Hayes title is
sacred, no other reason should be re
duired or looked after for setting him
aside. Tint is enough, II should
be conclusive.
These questions of principle aNl
have practical bearing. Every
thing depends on them. No Demo
Gratis true to his principles who does
not oppose the reelection of Rep
resenlative in Congress who voted for
the ridiculous and abominable dcela-
ration that Hayes title is sacred.
