IN the contested election case of
Dibble against Mackey in Congress,
DibbIe charged that Mackey altered
the short hand notes of the reporter
who took down the testimony of wit
nesses, by cutting out material parts
and inserting, by bold forgery, matters
favorable to his case, and alleged that
the charge could be clearly proven.
The Democrats simply asked that a
Committee of the House be appointed
to investigate the matter that it might
be fairly settled, but this was denied,
and the arbitrary majority proceeded
to seat the man whom the people, by a
decided majority, had rejected, and
that by open violation of the rules of
the House, by which the right of free
discussion was denied the minority.
THE New Lisbon Buckeye State, q
pronounced and able Republican jour
nal, says: "The Republican party of
Ohio has gone too far in support OF
temperance to retreat now without Sc
curing the contempt of even the liquor
interest" What has that party done
for the cause of temperance further
than to pass law which its own court
pronounced unconstitutional and one
which no enc claims would diminish
the quantity sold, but only the guam
tity Of sellers.

about intimidation and. tissue ballots.

THE OFF YEAR.

An Oakland paper has noticed that
the first time in several years, the Re-
publicans have not only held their own,
but made gains in what has been termed
the "off year," that is, the general cleo
ton year preceding the Presidential
election. Three Northern States have
thus far held elections this year, and in
each case the Republicans have made
large gains. First came Oregon, more
than doubling its Republican majority,
gaining member of Congress and a
United States Senator. Then came
Vermont, carrying everything, as usual,
and though the vote was light, the ma
jority was increased in comparison to
the vote + ,lled. Ia Maine, where the
Democrats, by fusion with the Green
blcgers, ksd great hopes Of carrying the

CASSIDY AND TUE CENTRAL Pa
ClFYC.

If the Chronicle is honest in its fight
against the Central Pacific--and we
think it is-it is in duty bound to cut
loose all allegiance to Congressman Cas-
sidy. r. NJ. Daggett while in Congress
delivered the most conclusive and mas
terly argument on the C. p. monopoly
that was ever hurled against the roai e.
The effort was warmly eXtolled by the
Chronicle, and the result of Daggett's
efforts to lift the burdens of thieving
freight rates from the people Of Nevada
was his retirement by the influence of
the corporation in favor of George Cas-
sidy, who has been under their control
ever siuce. During his stay in Wash
ington did he ever lift his voice in
favor of the monopoly-ridden people of
Nevada against the expressions Of a
robbing r. r. Co.? This question the
Chronicle has time and time again
stated to be one of such paramount i'm
portance as to rise above political con-
siderations. Cassidy has been faith
less servant of the people, and during
his entire stewardship has done nothing
for his State worth mentioning. He
was in position to do much. Great
things were expected of him, and he
comes back an acknowledged failure.
When his record is published, his un-
denied official record, it damns him SO
completely that his organs have nothing
in reply except persona! abuse and vul-
gar, low bred assaults upon the editors
of the newspapers who have stamped on
his work the true assay value of the
bogus metal.

Both parties have adopted plank in
their platforms that calls for a constitu-
tional convention. Now, what does
this all mean, and is there big cat in
the meal bag? People are puzzled to
know just now what changes in the
constitution are needed which cannot
be reached by legislative enactment.
The candidacy of Colonel Fair for the
United States Senate in 1880 gave the
election of that year to the Democracy,
and the result was the weakest and
most pliable Legislatures, and some of
the most ignorant and corrupt county
governments ever known in the State.
Times are hard in Nevada and taxes
are high. Taxpayers of all shades of
political complexion are aroused and
determined to inaugurate all era Of re-
form and economy. The taste of DEM
Ocratic rule has satisfied them, and as
the Republicans have put up an ex-
ceptional State ticket and will follow
suit in their legislative and county
nominations, Republican victory may
be safely predicted. 18th.
