TIE LOST TRIBES. livery lew years some
new theorist rises up to inform the world that
he has discovered the ten tribes that We're car
rioi into captivity. Olo believes tho North
American Indians 10 bo the lost tribes; another
tries 10 persuado himself that they arc Identical
with the japanese; third, that China was
their final resting place; and one audacous in,
dividual has boldly asserted that the Eogllsli
ncopc arc the liueal descendants OF the captive
tribes. Yet tho world has wagged quietly GU
its yay without stopping to listen to the dis
puta, and the theorists have, one after another,
subsidcd into their original oblivion:
A theory that strikes US as haVIog much
more solid basis Of fact than any heretofore al
vsnccd is that held by Mr.. judah Czcrny, q
Jewish savaut Of wilma, who, after eight years
tf research and patient study Id the Caucasus
announces it as tho result OF his lnvestlgallons
that he believes the lost ten tribes arc located in
thcCaucasian mountains. There, 1t IS we'll knoWn,
arc some considerable communities Oh lsraciltcs,
though their history had heretofore not been
miputcly inquired into. 1t has been Inc IN
tcrcstpg task Of NJ. Cz,roy to l1qnlrc into the
! story OF these scattered communities, whose
residence 10 the Caucasus reaches back ior many
| centuries. Their habits, traits, traditions and
historical rcmaiDs have been rlgldly examined
by ono who was thoroughly competent for his
task and who is able to give good proof OF the
reasons which have imrcIlcd him to adopt his
| theories. We shall wait with great interest Tor
something direct from NJ. Czerny's pen IN sup
port of his statements. and whether he proves
his position or not, the world will be glad tc
hear tho story Of the obscure people OF Iht
Caucasian Mountains. They have history oil

DEAL AND THE w0RKINamEN.

Last week the SILVER STATE, at re-
quest of several sworkingmen, called at.
tention to the fact that w. e. f. Deal,
prominent candidate for the Demo.
cratic nomination for Congressman,
took an active part, as Acting United
States District Attorney, in prosecuting
white men -in4t this county for alleged
violation of the Burlingame Treaty
some years ago, and cautioned the Con-
vention. not 10 nominate him, unless
defeat with him was preferable to
victory with somebody else. The vir-
ginia Chronicle pretends to be very
much surprised to find such an article
IN the SILVER STATE, and proceeds to
give what it terms the ''facts,' but
which those conversant with the cir
eumstances say are something else.
We desire the Chronicle to under
stand that the writer has no motive
I other than that an unobjectionable can
didats for Congress be nominated, in
giving publicity to what has appeared
In the SILVER STATE relative to Mr..
Deal. He ia not acquainted with the
gentleman, and never had any business
or -0ther relations with him; neither
has he any favorite for the position to
which Mr.. Deal aspires. We simply
stated. as,reqnested, that Mr.. Deal is
Objectionable to many miners and
workingmen because of his connection
with the prosecution of white men in
the United States District Court in 1869.
They know that W. z. F. Deal was
setting United States District Attorney
1t that time; that eighteen of them
were indicted for alleged violation of
the Burlingame treaty; that one ar
rested by United States Marshall Dey
was discharged on writ of habeas
corpus BY Judge Berry of the District
Court. and that another was taken be-
fore the Supreme Court of the State on
writ of habeas corpus and remanded
by that tribunal to the, custody of the
Marshal, and finally discharged with
cut trial. They believe that Mr.. Deal
vas Instrumental in procuring the in
dictmsnts and holding the defendants,
and for this reason say they will not
support him for Congress. If these
opinions are erroneous. Mr.. Deal
should correct them, otherwise he will
lose good many votes in November,
should be receive the nomination for
Congress. if men mean what they say.
What is here stated may again sur
prise the Chronicle, but it is better
that it be surprised now than at the re-
suit of the vote on election day.

THE REPUBLICAN STATE CON-

The Republican State Convention

pointed delegates. are admitted, they
will probably one and all. support Bat
