WERE They PLEDGED.-Since the Moore
Hall meeting, four of the men on the slate
ticket have admitted that they were asked to
run by Helm. Swift and Coffin. Any man
who accepts under these circumstances is the
same as pledged, as no able man would
accept and then vote for any other candidate
than the one who asked him.

Who WAS THE TRAIToR?-The main thing
the manipulators Of the Slate are anxious to
know about, is the name of the man who gave
the thing away. While the putting up of the
slate in Stewarts Office was very reprehen-
sible proceeding, in our opinion the man
who violated his word, and peached, is the
blacklist political sheep in the county.

THE SLATE Factory Mr.. Wellington Stew
art was busy all day Sunday cleaning up after
the Republican caucus that met in his
Office. The floor was strewn all over with
fragments of states which had been sawed off,
scraped and pared down in order to make
them fit the frames. 1t is probable that while
Mr. Bender morticed the frames Messrs
Coffin and Helm cut the material and Mr..
Woodwork (of Elko) glued the corners to-
gether. All this work made considerable
litter and it had to be swept up. It is quite
evident that when SO many workmen get to.

might be desired.

HIS TURN AT LAsT.-Fred Grinage, we'll
known in Carson as one of the likliest ton
serial artists that ever graced the profess
sion in Nevada, died on Sunday night in this
city at the age of 80 years. This genial col
ored gentleman has travelled over the faces of
the residents of the capital for many years
past, and all the great men of Nevada have
felt his gentle touch as he swept his keen, ua-
erring razor over theirjaws and were soothed to
sleep under his magnetic manipulations.
Now the old man sleeps himself He had been
waiting his turn for years, and when Death
called out "next' Grinage was ready. The
scythe of the destroyer was keener than the
best tempered razor ever honed and Grinage
was the best tempered old barber that ever
lived. His funeral will take place from the
colored Methodist church this afternoon.

Coop ADVICE. - Yesterday afternoon a
young man who was boasting of how he had
played man who was candidate by lying to
him, was called 70 time by an old gray headed
politician, as follows: Young man you are
starting out wrong if you expect to be great
politician 1t isn't smart trick to lie, any
body can lie. You may do pretty we'll for a
while but pretty soon everybody will copper
you and your game is up. Never break po-
Etical promise, and when you have peoples
confidence you can do a good Some peo-
pie wonder how Billy Carr, of San Francisco,
handles things so we'll; it is because he never
repudiates his word. You are starting in as
little pothouse politician, and you will never
get any higher. If you are cute enough to
put up jobs, all right, but don't lie to gain a
point. You will only get the best of that
man once, and when your lies come home to
roost, they'll keep you too busy to allow you
to do much in politics. The callow politi-
clan withdrew as if he was learning too much
