The Republicans of Ohio will take no
doubtful stand on the liquor question in
the canvass soon to open. The Columbus
Journal says the party never had two
better principles on which to contest an
election than these: Il. The saloons
shall bear their proportionate and just
share of taxation. 2. They shall conform
to the rules applied TO other business as
to Sunday traffic Mr.. Richard Smith,
when questioned few days ago in
Cleveland as to what the feeling through
out the State was on the liquor laws and
their effect upon the Republican party,
replied that the news was most enceur-
aging. g tell you.' said he, the old
Republican party is waking up. IL
always fought best when it had for its in
centive moral issue. II was founded on
such an issue, and it win marshal again to
the contest in the struggle for great
moral principle.

any one not deeply versed in the history,

AN ARGUMENT FOR VACCINATIONS ~
10 the current number of The Nine.
teenth Century" DR.. Carpenter, tho cele-
brated Psychologist, has paper indicating
vaccination. 1t abounds in facts and
statistics for the century closing in 1881
There is one group of instances taken
from an official report, which might be
considered as conclusive. In 1880, eleven
nursing mothers were afflicted with small
pox. None of the infants communicated
the disease to the mothers and none OF
the mothers to the infants, the danger Of
infection having been anticipated by vac
cination.

A joint resolution has been passed by
the House to appropriate sixteen million
dollars to make up the deficiency in the
appropriation for army pensions. Next
year one hundred millions are set aside
for this purpose-two sums which show
that the Government does not stint its
bounty toward those men who served and
saved their country in war times. We
should take more pleasure in recording
this national generosity were wo sure
that several out of all those millions did
not go to wholly unworthy applicants 1t
is no secret that thousands Of persons are
to-day receiving pensions to which they
have not the slightest right. Let the
Government be generous, but let it take
every precaution to make snro that those
and those only--who deserve compensa-
tion receive IT.

A few years ago there was not single
bicycle in the United States, and now.
according 10 the New York Herald, there
are over $4,000. Several large manu-
factories are building the machines, and
they are SO overwhelmed with orders that
any one who wants bicycle not found in
the small stocks now ON hand, has to wait
for it one or two months. The business
has been greatly stimulated within the
last year, by the opening of city parks to
bicycle riders; but the want Of good
roads, except in the older parts of the
country, tends to confine the use of BIZ
cycles to the larger cities and to New
England and the Middle States.

here that they have seen shad caught in

shad with the intention to keep them

are SO extraordinarily fat that in a few
months they begin TO rust and have an
unpleasant taste. No doubt the warm
climate is one of the causes of this. The

yesterday and officially reports the
death of Chief Winnemucca to his
tribe. The old warrior died in Surprise
Valley a week ago last Friday. He adj
vised his tribe to be good aud live in
peace with the whites, and told them to
choose good man to succeed him.
Naches says that the report that a
squaw had been sacrificed at his grave
is unfounded. His young wife was
killed four or FIVE weeks ago when the
old man was very sick, as he believed
that she was the cause of his illness,
having dreamed that she made him
sick. Tomorrow at Wadsworth, the
tribe will choose successor to Winnie
mucca.

evening the citizens of Paradise turned
out en- masse, regardless of political
proclivities, to hear Nevada's faithful
representative, Geo. W. Cassidy, and
gave him a cordial-a Paradise well

announced his arrival, and long before
the time appointed for the meeting
kemler's Hall was crowded, and stand
ing room was at premium. Over $50
persons we're present, which was an
unusually large gathering for Paradise.

The Chairman made few remarks
appropriate to the occasion, and intro
duced Mr.. Cassidy, one who in the
Congress OF the United States had
proved himself the trusted representa-
tive and faithful friend Of the people.
Mr.. Cassidy was received with APP
plause, and thanked the people of Par
adise for the very cordial manner in
which he had been received, and said
he would always endeavor to merit
their esteem. In plain words he pro-
ceeded to give an account of his stew
ardship. He said that, although a
Democrat, up to the closing of the polls
in 1879 he had regarded himself since
not as the representative OF any polti-
cal party, but as the servant of the
whole people of Nevada. He clearly
stated his position on all questions af
fectiug the interests Of the people which
came before Congress during his term,

A note from Big Meadows says that
John Hill is now digging potatoes which
yield fourteen tons to the acre. On
land adjoining his potato field he raised
two tons of barley to the acre. Other
farmers ON the Meadows have raised
proportionately heavy crops. This is
doing well on sagebrush and grease
wood land which few years ago was
considered valueless.
