agreed to be shot if the report proved
true. The report being unfounded, the

The sutro Tunnel Completed.

SUTRo, NEy June 30.-To-night the
mountain tops overlooking the Washoe
silver region and the Carson Valley are
ablaze with bonfres, and the echoes OF
cannot, and discharges of giant powder
are heard in every direction. The event
which 10 being celebrated is the final
completion of the Sutro Tunnel, for the
reception of the water from the Com
stock mines, after ten years ecaseIess
labor, day aud night, and the expendi
ture Of S6,0o0,000- The powerful en-
giDes of the combination shaft OF the
Hale and Norcross and Savage mines
were started up this morning at precise.
ly six o'clock, discharging their water
into the Sutro Tunnel, at the mouth of
which it made its appearance in one
hour and twenty minutes, showing a
temperature at frst of l0l degrees,
which gradually increased to 10S de
grees. In eight hours the water in the
long drowned-out mines was lowered
100 feet. Every thing worked to a
charm The. wooden boxes, construct,
ed of three-inch .tongued and grooved
Sierra Nevada pine, did not shows leak,
and not even particle Of steam escaped
from them, 80 that the tnnnelr after the
hot water was turned in, showed barely
an increase Of temperature. The water
from the Sierra Nevada, Union, Ophir,
the Bonanza mines, Best q Belcher, and
Gould d Carry, will not be turned in
for a couple Of weeks, and after all finds
its way into the tunnel it is expected
that one Of the double line Of boxes
will have ample capacity to carry all the
water. AS an engineering work the sue.
cess surpasses all expectations.

Conducting the Ohio Campaign on

r.
o. Chairman Robinson had better stay
away from Washington. It now leaks
out that his visit to induce Conkling to
go to Ohio and make campaign speeches
was against the protest Of men who
knew Conkling a good deal better than
Robinson Garfield advised him not 10
invite Gonkling, because he would only
get refusal and snub, and that it
would be a good deal better to leave the
matter an open question. and keep para
ding Conkling's name as one OF the ex-
pected orators. rather than have Il set-
tied definitely by refusal. The truth
is, Robinson Is trading on Blaine's and
other Republicans names in precisely
the way Garfield suggested as to Conk
ling. Professor Monroe, OF Ohio, Thought
he would execute a flank movement, and
get Conkling to visit Ohio any way
He likes Conkling, thinks be is a great
man, and Conkling knows it. When he
told the New York Hyperion that the
people of Ohio were crying for, him,
Conkling said: :"Mr. Monroe, the course

vote on Senator Vests resolution de.
manding NE free aud immediate coinage
of silver on an equal footing with gold
The test vote came ona motion to refer
the resolution to the Finance Committee
1t was referred by one vote. Had all ot
the Democrats of the Senate been presen,
il would not only not have been referred
but would have been passed by five OF
six majority. OF the twenty two votes
to pass the resolution every one came
from the Democratic side, while of the
twebtv- three votes TO refer the resolution
all were Republican votes, except Bayard
Herman, Eaton and Whyte. The vote
shows clearly that only to the Democrats
need the people look to have silver placet
on an equal footing with gold.

The Currency Issue.

Our Gubernatorial candidate. Gener-
al EWING, jp his admirable speech at C :
lambus on the 26th ut, defined very
clearly the duty Of every Ohio Demo-
crat in relation to the p litical issues be-
fore the people. He said: mo man
whatever his position on the ticket or in
'the party, has a light when speaking in
sits name to add word t. or subtract a
word from that platform. 1t may 90

"some Democrats; it may fall short of
"the views of Others; b it is tie delib-
"erete exposition of the issues OF this
campaign on which ahs Rpocracy OF
"Ohio rave chosen to ask the indorse
"mrt of the people" The platform ia
plain and specific as to theiss of this
campaign. We shallrerer now only to
what says on the money question. I,
declares the following:
1. That the lssue OF money in any
form, and the regulation thereof, belong
t. the General Government alone, and
ought not t. he delegated or intlusted to
lnd;ylduals Interpretations.
Oppostions to the perpctuation of
the National Banking system as means
OF control over the currency of the coun.
try.
3. The gradual substitution of Treas
urv netes for National Bank currency.
a. The notes issued by the Govern
ment for currency to be made receivable
tor all dues and a legal tender equal with
coin.
| 5. That such Governmei issue shall be
regulated upon principles established by
legislation or organic law. so as t secure
the great ,st possible stability of values.
6 The full restoration Of silver t, its
original place as money metal, the same
as gold.
Those points make the financial issue
CT this campaign, on which the Democ-
racy OF Ohio have chosen to ask the in
dorsement Of the people, very plain and
simple. Boiled down, that plank of the
platform means greenbacks as the only
paper currency; the quantity to be regu-
lated by a constitutional provision, or bv
Legislation, and t. be made legal tender
the same as gold aud silver, aud that sir
yer coinage shall be treated at the mints
the same as gold.

Chairman Robinson Of the Ohio Re-

out the fact, but suppressed the details
of why Conkling refused to go into
Ohio this fall and make campaign speech
es The interview between Robinson
and Conkling is thus detailed by one
who heard it: Robinson with most
obsequious bow to Conkling, told him
that he had called upon him TO invite
him to make two or three speeches in
Ohio Conkkng looked at the beefy
Chairman with a scorn which no pen
can picture, and said "Are there 90
Republicans in Ohio to conduct their
own campaignf" "Oh, plenty" added
Robinson, ''but we would be pleased to
have you come into the State and make
speech in Fosters interest" At thi:
announcement OF Fosters name Conkline
assumed a meditative air: "Foster, Fos
