and imperative: that we favor the crea-
ton of a State Board Of Equalization, as
the only feasible way by which an uni
form and equitable assessment may be
made on property situated in two or more
counties in this State. That we are OPP
posed to any diversion or interference
with the Public School Fund for sectarian
purposes; that we view with alarm the
acquisition OF large bodies of land in this
country by wealthy aliens, and we believe
that legislation should be had restricting
such acquisitions for the future; that the
public lands should be reserved by the
General Government for actual settlers,
and that there should be 40 monopoly OF
acreage by subsidies to railroad corpora
tions, for the violation Of which princi-
pies we arraign the Republican party, q
party which pretentiously speaks Of the
public lands as the heritage of the peo-
ple." after it has ~squsndered the fsirest
portions Of this domain in reckless grants.
In all matters not touched upon in this
declaration of principles, we shall feel
safe in standing upon the platform to be
put forth by the National Democratic
Convention, q body whose wisdom we
recognize as superior to ours, and whose
to the cause of Democracy we
know to be as spirited and as earnest as
our own, and we pledge the Democracy Of
Nevada to the hearty support of the nomi-
nees Of that convention,

place in his hands the leadership of the
Democratic host, for the reason that the
achievement Of the Government is an un-
dertaking now too heavy for his failing
strength, enforcing this that his life has
been prolonged until the general judgment
of his fellow-oountrymen unites in the
wish that the wrong were righted in
his person. The Democrats Of the United
States offer him upon his withdrawal
from these cares, not only respectful
sympathy and esteem. but, also, that best
homage OF freedom, the pledge of devo-
ton to the principles and course we deem
inseparable in the history Of the Republic
from it's leaders and the name OF Samuel
J.. Tilden. With this statement of the
hopes, principles and purposes Of the
Democratic party, the great issue OF re-
form and change in the administration is
submitted to the people in the calm conf
dence that the popular voice will pro-
nounce in favor of new men, and new and
more favorable conditions, for the growth
of industry, extension Of trade, employ
ment and due reward Of labor and capital,
and the general welfare of the country.

Gov. Porter's OId Friends.

Governor Porter of Indiana tells a
very funny story on himself, acknowl-
edging that for once i'm his life he was
ioored. During the recent campaign
he went into a small town to nlake.a
speech. He began something in this
way: My friends, am glad to meet
you again. l always like to come to
Blankville and to see, as [ do now, SO
many old friends" Just here a tall,
gaunt Hoosier, in a coon skin cap, cried
out in an inimitable voice: "Name 'em,
governor, name 'em.! ~ And the COVER
nor says he was SO broken up by this
untimely inquiry for details that he
could not name a man. The Hoosiers
laughed good-naturedly, and the COVER
nor joined in, too. "Name 'em, COVER
nor, name 'emW has become a by-word
in the Hoosier state.

I4IE following is . " asnIngton spe-
ciaI of the Pioneer Press The appoint
ment of B. Plat Carpenter to be COVER
~nor of Montana for the unexpired term
of Gov. Crosby was a surprise as to the
individual, but not very much SO as to
the presidents decision not to comply
with the Chicago platform and select a
Montana nan for the place. It was
known all along that some New Yorker
had the presidents favor, and yet the
Montana men here, notably Delegate
Maginnis and Gov. Crosby, have been
trying to persuade him to appoint Capt.
Mills, Of Deer Lodge, and, if he was not
suitable, to choose some other acceptable
Montana man. But Carpenter wanted
Tie place desperately. Nothing else
offered that suited him. Congressman
John Ell. Ketchum, who represented Car
penter here, was most strenuous in ask
ing this particular place, and the presi-
dent finally gave in to his two very good
old friends. Carpenter, who is now
we'll along in years, and has not gained
ali he desired in politics beyond a term
or two i'll the state senate, and as pro-
bate Judge Of Duchess county, is said to
be going to Montana to settle perma-
nently and engage in investments there.

THE Philadelphia Press argues against
a continuance Of Nevada as & State, and
SAYS its nonresident senators are return
ed by the Nevada legislature because of
the pecuniary advantage thereof. 70
the people of the thirty-seven other
states this ~disproportion of power enjoy
ed by the handful of people in this
immense pocket borough of Nevada is
extremely unsatisfactory. The state
cannot be d~isorganized against the will
of the people, few they are, without a
breach Of the bond which binds all the
states together, and the Pacific coast
would unite in resenting it. The Press
thinks a satisfactory solution Of the
problem could be had by uniting avada
and California, and then dividing the
consolidated state into a Northern and
Southern state. The people of southern
California would be highly gratified by
the separation, and northern California
would be compensated in part for its loss
by the addition of the major portion of
Nevada. The main question is, would
the people of Nevada consent to the
arrangement? We are confident that
they would consent if they were COM
pensated in a material form for their
loss of political power.

THAT is an important sheep deal
mentioned in our local columns to-day
the sale of Paris Gibson & Sons ceie-
brated thoroughbred flock to EMessrs.
Stems d Arlington, the St. Paul firm
that has embarked in the business of
wool growing in this section on such an
extensive scale. Prior to this purchase
the firm was the owner Of more than
$4,000 head of sheep, with valuable
ranches and the virtual control of one of
the best ranges in Montana. This late
acquisition completes the complement,
rounds out the whole, gives them a
valuable as well as an extensive posses
sion in the way of wool bearers. Mr..
Gibson is the father of the wool bust
ness in Montana. He did not, it is true,
bring the first sheep to the country, but
he engaged in the business Ia its infancy
and gave it such q boom, as, withouthis
help, it would not have had for many
years. The sheep business in this terri
tory without Paris Gibson and his good
judgment and his rustling qualifications

BATTLE WITH AN ALLIGATOR. Robert
Carroll, trapper and hunter, while trap

river, in Alabama, bad terrible fight with
an alligator last week. Seeing the water
agitated in q hole near the river, and SUD-
posing that otters were fishing therein, be
mounted pole on tussock just above the
waters edge. His steel traps were in sack
suspended from his neck. His only weapon
was his Ratchet. He sat on the pole, with
mass of vines at his back. He held his
weapon ready to strike an otter, should one
arise. Soon he saw young alligator near
him. He caught it up and it uttered q cry.
In an instant there was a terrible splash of
water, and huge alligator, with distended
mouth and glttering teeth, rushed for him.
With little hope Of escape be fell back upon
the vines, and as he did so kicked the pole
from under his feet. The terrible jaws closed
on the pole and crushed it. Carroll tried to
interpose the traps, but vine had caught
them and partly held him down. Seiz
ing his Ratchet he struck into the
open mouth of his assailant. It closed
on the weapon, and with great diff
Guilty he saved the Ratchet. Getting free
from his traps be dealt the alligator fatal
blow on the skull as it made the next charge
He secured the skin and such teeth as had
not been destroyed in the fight. The length
of the alligator WAS about 81 feet. The hole
was its den. Alligators rarely attack human
beings.

TAKE A GOOD REsT.-You are wearing
out the vital forces faster than there is any
need, and in this way subtractiug years
from the sum total of your life. This rush
and worry, day after day-this restless anx-
iety for something you have not-is like
pebble-stones in machinery, they CRATE and
grind the life out of you. You have useless
burdens; throw them of. You have a
great load of useless care; dump it. Pull
in the strings; compact your business take
time for thought of better things Go out
into the air and let Gods sunshine down
upon your busy head.
Stop thinking OF business and profit; stop
grumblirg against adverse providences.
You will probably never see much better
times in this doomed world and your most
opportune season is now; your happicst
day is to day. Calmly do your duty, and
let God take care of his own world He is
still alive and is the King. Do not imagine
that things will go TO everlasting smash
when you disapper from this mortal state.
Do not fancy that the curse Of heaven, in
the vast task of righting up a disjointed
earth is imposed upon you. Cease to fret
and fune; cease to jump and worry early
and late. The good time is coming, but you
will never bring it God can and will take
breath, sir; sit down and rest, and take
long breath. Then 60 calmly to the tasks
of life, and do your work well.
