THE SENATORIAL QUESTION.

To run or not to run? that is the question.
Whether tits nober in the mind 20 suffer
The stings and squibbings OF outrageous writer's
Or throw the sack against OF rivals,
And by purchase end them? To win-to lose
No more; and by cheek to say We end
The bleeding and the thousand natural calls for cash
That wealth is heir to. 'Ts consummation
Devoutly to be bought. To run-to win,
To win perchance to lose. Ali there's the rub
For in victory what men may come,
When have shuffled off Nevadas cares,
To bid us pausef There's the respect
That makes Investigations of long life:
For who could bear the whips and scorns OF Frye:
The jaw of Blaine proud Conklings speech,
Or Gorham's csustic mauling,
While he might his quetus make
BY simply drawing out For who would honors bear.
To grunt aud sweat beneath official hfe!
There is dread OF something after this:
That great Salt River, from whose muddy banks
And dreadful sweep of dark engulGing waves
No candidate returns puzzles the will,
And makes him rather hold the place he has
Than fly to Senates which he knows not OF.
And thus the hVe of sa.ebrush resolutions
Is sicklied DER with the low price Of Union
The falling market, and this crash in Alta,
And Enterprises Of small pith and influence
Whose writers turn to rye
With every week their crculations wilt
And lose the name of organs.

NEW process OF obtaining stereotype
plates for printing has been discovered by
M. Emile Jeanin, a sculptor of Paris, who
proposes to employ for that purpose the ma
terial known as cellulod. The process of
preparation takes only half an hour, when
the matter is once in type. and the plates
thus produced are remarkably adapted for
working on cylinder presses running at a
high speed, being very light, Il 1ible and du-
rable. In this last respect they are said to
even surpass metal plates.

CIRcu4ATi0N Disputes Since The Caraon
papers engaged in = dispute regarding their
circulation, the papers Of other cities On the
coast have followed spit Just now the Stock
ton journals are each trying to convince the
public that their circulation is the largest.
The Mail, however, IS tho only paper that is
willing to back its circulation wi1l money, and
rs far as heard from its contemDoraries, al
thought they announce ''tbis paper has the
largest circulation in Stockton" at the head
Of their columns, have failed to respond.
After newspaper publisher has bantered .
rival to bet On his circulation, and when the
bet is taken, fails TO put up the money,
about the least he can do is to take down
from the head of the columns the assertion,
in big plea type, tha his circulation is the
largest. The Stockton rivals Of he Hall
should either meet that journals coin prope.
sition or cease to claim larger circulation.
It is not probable, however, that they will
have the professional courtesy to do So The
following from RoWeIl's Newspaper Directory
is quite pertinent to the issue:
Experienced advertisers generally fight shy
of newspaper which keeps at the head of its
columns q standing claim that its circulation
is the largest. 1t is recognized rs a sort of
signal of distress or {; blind TO deceive the
public. A newspaper with an established
circulation need never boast of it, and adyer
tisers fully recognize the correctness of the
rule.
