THE APPEALS REPUBLICANISM.

The Virginia CiaonicIe compliments the
APpaAL for its present attitude on the railroad
question, and its refusal to support William
Sharon for reelection to the United States
Senate from Nevada. The APPEAL, while
fully approaching the good will of its contem-
porary, fails to see wherein it deserves any
praise for its position on either of these i'm
portant issues. 1t opposes the entertainments
of railroad monopoly from a sense of duty to
the people of the State, and feeling of res
pect 10 the memory of the founder of this
paper, Henry r. Mighels. 1t opposes Will
liam Sharon from sense of decency and be-
cause it has the future prosperity of the Re
publicaa party at heart. No matter how
much its protested leaders in this State may
be influenced by Sharon's coin, the APPEAL is
certain Of one thing, that neither Sharon nor
any other man can buy up the rank and file
of the party and if he is ever elected from this
State to succeed himself, il will be because
the leaders sell the honor OF the party to the
highest bidder. The APPEAL regrets that it's
course is such an exception to the policy
adopted by the rest of the so-called Repubi
can papers of this State, that the circumstance
is cons dered worthy of special note. 1t is
the duty Of the honest mass of Republicans of
Nevada to utterly repudiats both the leaders
and the newspapers who are scheming to bar
ter away the party's prestige and honor at the
next election If those men who are already
laying the wires for grand collapse of Re-
publican principles, are permitted to succeed,
the electoral vote of Nevada will pass into the
hands of the Democracy at the next Prosiden-
tial election. The party cannot afford 20 as
sumo this tremendous risk fer the sake of
gratifying the personal vanity of so notori-
ously incompetent and worthless a represen-
tative.

EDISONS NEW LIGHT.

New York dispatch announces that Ed
son has given private exhibition OF his new
| light and the trial was as complete success
! as anyone could wish. On New Years eve,
Menlo Park will be Illuminated by the new
process, aud the birth of new year will also
proclaim the dawn of cheap light throughout
the world. One of the grand results Of Ed
son invention is the satisfaction which every
man feels over the speedy dissolution of the
gas monopolies which the curse of large
cities. Already gas stock in New York is
breaking in anticipation of the event of next
Wednesday night and when the reverberating
hammer of OLD Time nails down the coffin lid
of 1879, every gas consumer in the country is
expected 10 say Ansen. The old oil lamps

greasy tallow candle will no longer shed its
scky glow, with ust enough light to show
where the shadows .hickest, and the bu-
collie bridegroom at the hotel will no longer
blow out the gas retiring, % be blown up

opportunity of securing a gratuitous adver-
tisenent by escaping from the burning hotel,

about the most UNI le.sant thing one can have
on the premises. The subtlety of this fluid is
only equaled by electricity itself. If slowed

power on earth that can prevent its penetra
ting into the kitchen and becoming an ingre
dent of the mince pies Kerosene is the
bora Of the restaurant from the fact that
slovenly cooks can never be taught that they
must not make pastry Immediately after clean
ing lamps. After all the expectation, how,

ton has raised, few need expect to reap the |
benefits of the new light during the next |

A SUGGESTION.

Although the present time may be con-
sidered little early to discuss the question
of Revada's next Senator, the subject is be
ing agitated quite freely. Under the present
arrangement the Legislature has the choosing of
the Senator, which gives a man with plenty
of coin an opportunity to come in, purchase
his seat with cold cash and defeat the will of
the people The APPEAL has suggestion to
make which, if acted upon, would practically
throw the election into the hands of the peo-
pie, where such an election really belongs
In selecting representatives to the Legislature
lot each voter write on the back of his ticket
his choice for Senator and previously let
the county conventions compel the Legislative
candidates, when nominated, to pledge them
selves, in voting for a Senator, to abide by
the choice Of a majority of their constituents,
as expressed in the manner described This
plan would bring out the full strength of the
party at the polls and result in Senatorial
choice at which no one could complain. The
people could thereby have an opportunity Of
directly expressing their wishes in the matter,
and the question of popularity with the peo-
pie would be most satisfactorily solved.
