Pacific Railroad, we reiterate our de-
mand for the passage by Congress Of
the Reagan bill.
Resolved, That the maximum rate
now permitted by our statutes of TWEEN
ty cents per mile for each ton of freight
and ten cents per mile for each passen-
ger carried by railroads between points
in this State, is an exorbtant rate and
should be reduced at least one-half.
Resolved, That the State Legisla-
ture should forthwith enact such laws
as will protect individuals and locali-
ties against unjust discrimination, linn
iting all railroad charges to what is re-
quired to meet operating expenses and
a fair interest on their actual values,
such values to bear the same relation to
their assessed value as does the value
of all other property to its assessed
value.
Resolved, That from all nominees
for the Legislature a solemn pledge
should be exacted that they will. If
elected, well and faithfully carry out
the foregoing resolution, in their letter
and spirit, and that all legislators
proving recreant to such pledge should
be held up for lasting scorn and exc
Grafton.
Resolved, That the Democratic rep
resentatives in Congress from Nevada,
Senator James G.. Fair and Hon.
George w. Cassidy, have well and
faithfully executed the trust reposed in
them by their constituents, and they
are entitled to our hearty acknowledge
ments therefor.
Resolved, That the platform adopted
by the Republicans of this State and the
candidates nominated by their conven-
tion at Reno fully warrant us in charg-
ing that both platform and ticket have
been constructed at the dictation and in
the interests OF the railroad managers,
and we challenge comparison with the
State platform and candidates of the
Democracy.

DEMOCRATIC PLATFORM.
The Resolutions Adopted nc the En-.

The Democracy Of the State of Ne

the following to be the principles OF
their political creed, and the grounds
upon which they ask the support and
cooperation OF their fellow citizens:

Piles adopted by the last National Dem
ocratic Convention to be worthy the
approval of every true American citi-
zen, we hereby re-atfrm our fealty to
and Endorsement Of those great national
principles.
Resolved, That the financial affairs
of our State require many economical
changes beyond the power of statutory
regulation, and We therefore favor the
calling of constitutional convention,
for the purpose OF making such changes
in the organic law OF the State as will
relieve the people from large portion
OF the present unnecessary and burden.

Resolved, That we favor the crea-
ton of State Board of Equalization,
for the purpose of regulating and fairly
adjusting taxable values, to the end
that railroad corporations may be com.
PEELED to bear their just proportion of
the cost OF maintaining the State and
county governments.
Resolved, That we condemn the
persistent efforts of the Republican
party to destroy the dominant industry
of this State, as evidenced by its past
attacks upon silver.
Resolved. That we arraign the Re-
publican party, both National and
State, for its broken promises to the
people, and gross extravaganza in the
disbursement of public moneys. 1t

Filtration In India.

In India there is little seclusion, little
home life. The unattached men drop
In at the houses where ladies are, at all
hours of the day-except, indeed, the
sacred hour of siesta. The number OF
servants is in itself sufficient to prevent
that privacy which at home is considered
the special privilege of husband and
wife. The attendants can not be shut
away, as in England, with closed houses
and windows. Then, as to guests, the
married man or woman who, III India,
would refuse to keep open doors for the
unoccupied men young and old, would
be considered churl indeed, inhospit-
able to the last degree. In stations where
there are very few ladies, such a man
would be looked upon as a sort of Blue
beard such woman as a terrible prude.
Prudery does not thrive in India, and is
consequently even more unpopular there
than it is at home. Bluebeardism is
singularly out of place in land where
nothing can be kept locked up-not even
the family skeleton.
Here, then, are all the chances for firt-
alton, and the only safety for the born
firt and her husband lies in tho num-
bers of those available for her to fiirt
with. Even the quiet little girl who,
before her marriage, thought of little,
in her home in some English parsonage,
beyond conducting the practice of the
village choir; making flannel petticoats
for the old women and warm socks for
the old men, developes in the atmosphere
Of alteration that surrounds her In India,
some innate germ OF coquetry, which
does not long remain germ. Surround
ing influences soon fructify it, and we
have then the development of the "quiet
firt," a dangerous lady, who, having
learned her power rather late in life as
compared with most girls, uses it warily,
skillfully, and with kind of hidden
eagerness, as though time pressed.
Thus the woman degenerates, and the
influence of her degeneration is soon
visible upon the men who surround her.
OF course there are charming women
and good wives, who make even an In
dian bungalow real home for their
husbands and carry with them an atmos-
phere of purity and sweetness that is an
unconscious shield against the atten-
tions that proceed from mere idleness,
Stiffness, or vanity of other men. But
these women are in a minority, aud the
feminine element in Indian society is
mainly composed of married hirts, and
unmarried girls who have failed in the
home matrimonial campaign, and have
come to India as speculation. London

Books.

Men first made books in Babylon,
where they fashioned them out of clay,
and baked them like bricks. and they
have been mt it ever since all over the
world, until the accumulated knowledge
OF ages has reached dimensions that are
simply stupendous. Only 1900 years
ago there were but nine books in all En-
gland. They were the great and sacred
treasures of the monks of Canterbury,
and they were the germ of the first En-
glish library. There are nearly mill
ion and quarter of books in the British
Museum, and during the last twenty
years the great store houses of literature
among civilized nations have nearly
doubled their contents.

Relations in Business.

There il no more doubt about the
ability of women to do good work, and
continuous work, than there is of that of
men. The continuity or perseverance Is
altogether Ill favor of women, where 1T
has been trained by exercise the power
of concentration upon given point, or
for given length OF time, is i'll favor of
men. But the conditions of work are
inexorabe for both, and they can not be
wished or sentimentalized, or scolded,
or even voted away. Th~re are certain
kinds of work that are less fitted for
women than others; and, as a rule,
women very properly avoid them ;
there are other kinds, however, for
which women are extremely well fitted,
some of which men at present perform,
and these women who are wise will fit
themselves for and try to secure. There
is no reason why. women should be
chambermaids ahd employees, and men
managers and proprietors in France
men do most of the chamber work in
hotels and public places, and women are
the managers and superintendents, the
sellers and cashiers. The whole busi-
ness of retail buying and selling might

great advantage to the buyer and the
seller. 1t is q most absurd thing that
the whole retail provisioning of our
great cities is in the hands of ignorant
men and liquor sellers, while women are
starving in garrets, or making shirts at
six cents apiece. These men often do
not know the articles that they sell by
their names, they do not know their
uses buy in a blind way what is offered
them they take 4" samples from agents,
and test the thing by their ability to
sell it. Women know better what is
needed they could accommodate their
goods better to the needs of their custo-
mers; they are more willing to take
trouble they have more faculty for de-
tail.
But In business or labor OF any other
Kind, that enters into competition with
the active world, there are no favors to be
asked, no consideration shown. You
must sell better article than another,
you must do your work as well or better
than another, and you must always be
at your post. Nor must you be SO fool
ish as to consider yourself necessary in
your place-a gap made is easily filed
few are able to distinguish the differ
ence and so the tide goes on, and rolls
over us, unless we can keep abreast OF
its current. IL is not easy; it Is not
hattering to our self love, but it is the

most intense in some particular spot. Acute
and thr,bbing pains succeeded each other aud
the colrsng poisonous acid inhamed all the

ders increased to arrangements the most
serious. II is sad to think that al this suffer-
ing was endured when IL could have been no
easily relieved. Acting upon the theory and
using the remedy above mentioned the kdneys
could have been restored TO their usual vigor,
the uric poison expelled from the system, the
Inflammation removed and the pam entirely
banshed.
These are some of the real and scientific facts
regarding rheumatism, attested by the highest
authority, and they are, beyond question. the
only correct ones ever brought forth. We are
aware they are advanced ideas, but ten years
hence they will be the accepted belief and
practice OF the world. Ii people suffer from
rheumatic troubles in the future and with
these plain truths before them, they certainly
can blame no one but themselves.

Save YOur Wives.

When man has been 80 fortunate as to wed
brlght-eyed, joyous, happy-faced girl, he
should be especially careful of her health. An
invalid wife or mother is greatly to be pitied
and yet sometimes, in spite Of love, and care,
and tenderness, our women-folks do get sick.
Beginning with irregularities and dyspepsia,
the general health begins to fail, and weak
ness, nervous prostration, sleeplessness, etc.,
make life miserable. The cheeks become pale,
the eyes grow listless. the hearts action en-
feeblod, the pulse weak, and decay OF the pull
monary, digestive and urinary organs is the re-
suit. For restoring sckly women to health and
strength, DR.. Guysott's Yellow Dock and Sar-
saparilla, excels all other medicines.
1t is true tonic. It's principal
ingredients are Yellow Dock, sarsaparilla,
Juniper, Iron, Buchu, Celery and
Calasaya Bark. 1t builds up the female sys-
tenn, and will positively cure falling Of the
womb, irregularities, female weakness, dys-
pepsia. etc.

Cold Sleeping Rooms.

Whatever our ancestors may have
thought of cold sleeping rooms, we can
not know. But we think that healthy
sleeping rooms are those into which the
sun can shine during several hours OF
the day, and from which vitiated airs
can fully pass and pure air come in. We
contend that cold sleeping rooms are
more healthy than warm ones for all
persons who possess the normal amount
of health and power of resistance;
warmth always increases the amount OF
exhalations from the lungs and emana-
tions from the body These two sources
of vitiated air are always generating
carbon gases at once unpleasant TO the
sense of men and deleterious to the
healthy, If its per cent. is much larger
than that which pure and normal air
contain. And then hot air, and even
warm, renders the mucous membrane OF
the respiratory organs tender and sus-
ceptible to the influences of "all the
winds that blow" During the hours OF
day we need only certain amount OF
outer warmth, depending upon the
amount of heat we generate by con-
suming nutricious and easily digested
food and by inhaling n proper sup
ply Of pure air. To ali intens and
purposes air is food. The very act
of mastication mingles air with all we
eat. 1t aids the process of digestion
and all other processes III the animal
economy. The colder air may be the
more oxygen it contains and the more
vitality it imparts. a multitude of per-
sons awake in morning hours without
having had refreshing sleep, simply be-
cause they are compelled to breathe
warm and vitiated air. Opening the
windows and freely admitting the morn
ing air. however cold it may be, removes
the WEAKNESS induced by inhaling warm
and vitiated air.
Either extremes of heat or cold, when
we are asleep, may be harmful, but cold
is much less apt TO harm our health than
warmth. Cold air is usually more pure
and invigorating than warm. In warm
seasons we feel weak and weary, and are
right glad TO feel waves Of cold air COM
ing. We, ourselves, always sleep with
the fresh, outer air Fastening into our
dormitory all night long. Cold air,
or night air, when we are awake or
fast asleep, invigorates our frame and
imparts strength of mind and activity
of body. 1t increases our appetite
and strengthens our digestive forces.
Every one who wishes to improve in
health should secure large supply OF
cold air during his hours of sleep.
We do not take cold from exposure to
freezing air, if that air be dry, but we do
contract cold by exposure to damp and
chilly air. Our experience is, that
sleeping in warm and unventilated
rooms Is uncomfortable and unhealthy.
Any one may know that the exhalations
froIn the lungs emanations from the
body are never so copious as when we
are in warm rooms. The cry against
cold sleeping rooms should be expended
upon damp and chilly ones. Dry and
cold air is always healthy. We send
persons far gone in consumption to Min.
nesota. because the air is cold and dry.
