Mr.. HAYES, having by fraud upon
the ballot, enjoyed the office of Presi-
dent to which he was not elected, with
an annual salary Of $4,000, to which
he was not entitled, has now the mo-
dest assurance in his closing address TO
Congress to urge the propriety of pro-
viding for the purity of the ballot
Any act of Congress to. give due
weight to the vote of the people and
protect them from the frauds of the
villains who have served Mr.. HAYES
and his party so faithfully, will obtain
the highest appreciation, but to be call
ed TO the performance Of this duty by
the creature of the stupendous fraud of
1876 is disgusting in the extreme, and
is only equaled by its impudence.

The Democratic Party of the Fu-
ture.

Since the result of the election of
last November has been fully appre-
ciated in all its bearings, the Repub-
lican press has entered upon its quad
rennial task Of consigning the Demo
cratic party to oblivion deep, dark
and inaccessible. We are told by the
superserviceable organs of power that
the Democratic party has ceased to
exist as great National political
organization, and that its disinte-
grafton and dissolution will be
fully accomplished before another i'm
portant contest engages the attention
of the American people. This as
sumption Is most Giolent one, and
if based upon the result of the late
election has no foundation in fact.
Ignoring entirely the proud historic
record of the grandest political party
that ever existed in the tide of time /;
a party that holds the loyal allegiance
of its followers as well through the
darkness of disaster as in the noontide
splendor of success, we pass on to look
over the field and see wherein the
Democratic party in the late election
showed such conspicuous weakness a.
to warrant the oft repeated assertion
that it will soon cease to exist as an
important factor in the affairs of the
Nation. General Hancock represent
ing the ideas and principles Of the
Democratic party polled on the ID of
last November almost four million
five hundred thousand votes, an in
crease in four years Of five hundred
thousand votes. This surely does not
look like decay or give evidence of
political mortality. OF the thirty
eight States in the Union nineteen
cast their electoral votes for the can
didate of this party which is so soon
to sink into an unmarked grave. The
popular vote cast for General Garfield
is only one thousand in excess of that
given to General Hancock, while Gar
field on the total poll is n minority
president by two hundred and fifty
thousand votes. This is bad show
ing by the triumphant party which
now seeks to convince the country
that it has settled the pretensions of
its great opponent forever. The real
cause of the defeat which overlook
the Democratic party on the thresh-
hold of success can be found in New
York. Here treachery and incompe-
tency frittered away the fruits of a
victory which had been gathered from
the plains of New Jersey and the golden
slopes of the Pacific. New York is
essentially Democratic State and is
only lost to its faith through internal
dissensions, the quarrels of faction and
the clash of local ambition. In that
State in total poll of nearly nine hun
dred thousand votes Garfeld's majori-
ty over Hancock is only twenty thou
sand. A change of eleven thousand
votes would have reversed the result
and saved our Republican friends
from the trouble of trying to convince
themselves that the great Democratic
party is dead. Shortly after the presi-
Dental election o few men whose po.

Valuable Properties Of the supposed
Worthless shrub.

When Edison, the great electrician
and inventive genius, passed through
here, he inquired if the sagebrush and
crossword which grow luxuriantly al
most everywhere in Nevada, were
utilized. On being informed that these
shrubs were used for fuel only, and not
even for that purpose except when
wood is scarce, he remarked that sooner
or later they would be utilized for
other purposes, as Nature did not de-
sign that shrubs which grew every
where in valleys, foothills and noun
tains from the Platt Valley, in Nebras-
ka, to the Sierra Nevada, should be
worthless. Now, it appears that Pro-
fessor Stillman, OF the Chemical De-
partment Of the California State
University, has discovered that grease
wood exudes valuable gum. An ex-
change says that Professor Stillman, at
recent meeting of the California
Academy of Sciences, read a paper on
the result Of chemical analysis of
the gum found on the Torreya Mexi.
cana, commonly known from it's odor
as the creosote plant, or greasewood,
sent from Arizona. The analysis
proved the emulation on this plant,
after the boring of it by a certain in.
sect, to be essentially the same as that
from which the stick lac, the gum lac
and the shellac of India--and one Of
the great sources Of midas wealth7-is
obtained. This creosote plant, called
also greasewood, grows abundantly in
the lower part of Tulare valley, Cali
fornia, and on the Mohave desert, as
well as in many of the valleys of Utah
and Nevada. The uses Of the gum are
various, and extend from those Of wax
for the wild ax-thread used by the
Indians, to solder used by the Next
cans, and the cure of rheumatism for
any person. General Redding and
others present, who know the plant,
stated that the emulation occurs only
where the insect affects it; but the
plant can doubtless be made to yield
the gum by simply tapping it by other
modes, and thus the hated greasewood
be made to contribute to the wants of
mankind.

The Avalanche says the recent heavy

mining operations in that vicinity.
The Florida Hill, Wagontown and
other mining districts in the vicinity
are sending out some good ore, while
from the Owyhee and other mines on
that section of War Eagle Mountain
the yield of rich rock and the general
indications were never more promising.
Owing to the severe weather, and the
obstacles connected with hauling, work
at the Fillmore mill has been Temporal
rily stopped. The last Clearbrook
crushing we understand exceeded the
expectations of its owners. The roads
are opened again and some 200 tons of
rock will be hauled down from the
Black Jack next week.

CERTIFICATES OF DEPOSIT.
Rene Savings Bank Money In Circm.
laftOn.

Certificates of deposit, issued by the
Reno Savings Bank, are being pretty
extensively circulated in this part Of
the country. The certificates are about
the size of greenbacks, are handsomely
engraved on good paper, and resemble
silver notes in color and appearance.
They are payable in gold coin to the
depositor, whose name is printed on the
certificate, or bearer, at Reno OF at the
Anglo Californian Bank, San Francisco,
and pass current here the same as green
backs or National bank notes. Why
do not some of our local capitalists start
a bank Of that character here, and issue
similar certificates? 1t looks as though
there was money in it, and by making
arrangements to have them paid here
or in San Francisco, they will answer
the purpose OF greenbacks so long as
people have confidence in the bank by
which they are issued and they are
redeemed when presented for that pur-
pose. No great amount of capital is
required for the business if the people
have confidence in the institution, as
the certificates might be issued in the
names of fictitious depositors. To make
it success, however, the public would
have to have the same confidence i'll the
bank that they do in hash or Bologna
sausage, and take it for granted that it
was all right.
