NATIONS AND
STITUTlONS.

The Enterprise in defending its
lettering position upon the ques-
ton Of new Constitution, tries to
show that it is simply an attempt
upon the part of a few discontentee
people to cinch the railroads and
corporations of Nevada.
Before this assertion is cold it
states that the Constitutional plank
was placed in the platform by SEN
ator Foley, Of Eureka. BY con-
sulting the records Of the last Ne
vada Legislature it will find that
Senator Foley voted with the rail
roads upon the bills classed as in
imicai l., their interests. This
charge that the CONSTITUTE onal Con-
vention is ar anti-railroad scheme
followed by the assertion that Fo-
ley was the father Of it, seems by
US to be an attempt upon the part
of the Enterprise to make out SEN
atvr Foley AZ vascelating as itself
upon leading politi cal topics.
1t is evident, howevei, that the
Enterprise wants compa ny in its
misery, and thus seeks to make
Senator Foley 4 COMPANION in its
trouble.
The Enterprise is anxious for
some plan to be devised to lower
the rate Of taxation.
We can assure it that if the var
iOus interest it represents would
pay their taxes upon the same basis
Of valuation as the people in gen
eral there would be no call for q
Constitution nal Convention to equal
ize taxation, or = squeal that the
State is nearly bankrupt.
OF course, on the subject Of tax
alton pot cannot call kettle black.
We all stand off the Assessor if we
can, and wrestle for reduction of
our taxes, and consider it a cold
day when We cannot reduce tle
original figures. The mining cor
porations do it, the railroad corpo-
rations follow suit, the business
men, the working men ard every
body. The big corporations have
the best success, because they can
put larger levers under the Asses
sors than private individuals.
Every time the Assessor comes
around we all wish VIC had these
same levers.
The corporations, however, are
not lighting the Constitutional Con
vention, and we defy the Enter.
prise to name one single railroad
man or mining man who is opposed
to it. The corporations Of Nevada
have too often demonstrated their
ability to take care Of themselves
in public matters to elicit any con-
Germ from anybody, that con-
vention or any thing else would
make any changes in the organ
lied law hostile to the powers
that be. In all the tussels be-
tween the corporations and the
people, the people have been
downed every time.

Chinese VICTORY.

A telegram received In London from shang-
hal states that sc ,0C0 Chinese troops, who had
heen secretly massed on the frontier, suddenly
invaded Tonquin and after desperate fighting
completely annihilatcd the French troops In
that province, the Chinese losing several thous.
and killed during the different engagements
which followed In quick succession. According
to the above, the massing of this large force on
the frontier had been going on for some time
under the supervision of experienced military
leaders, and so well did they conduct the affair
that the French commanders were una ware of
their proximity until they swept down on them
ike an avalanche, with the above result. The
French troops fought desperately aud repeated
ly charged the Chinese lines, but as fast as the
latter were broken into, they closed up again
with remarkable military precision, and many
hand-to hand encounters ensued, the French
finally succumbing to overwhelming odds.

INTO ETERNITY!
James Mccain, an Old Citizen. is
Run Over by a Street Car and
Instantly Killed.

One of the most horrible as we'll as
peculiar accidents which has happened in
this city for number of years, was the
accident last Saturday night which caused
the death of James Mccain, one of our
citizens whose age was seventy years.
Mr.. McMann was walking westward on
the street car track, towards his home,
about 0 o'clock Saturday night. He was
old and nearly deaf. The night was dark,
so dark that it was hard to see your hand
before you. Street car No. was going
West The driver did not see him, nor
did Mr. Mccain see the car. The horse
must have struck him first, then the car
passed over him. The driver felt some
thing underneath the car, stopped his car,
went back aud found Mccain lying near
the track. He was unconscious. He
never spoke word. He was taken to
his home, which was near by, and a
Moline doctor sent for, but by the time
he arrived McCann's soul had winged its
flight to the God who gave it. An
examination was made His chest was
bruised in a horrible manner One of his
ribs was found pressed tight against his
heart. This alone was enough to have
caused instant death. His left arm was
also found broken.
Word was telephoned to the police
station here, and Deputy Marshal Bren
nan notified Coronor HAYES, who,
with Deputy Coroner Eckhart, repaired
to the dead mans residence. A jury wa,
sworn in, some evidence taken. and then
adjourned until l o'clock yesterday
afternoon. An inquest was held yestcr
day. \ great deal of evidence was taken
after which the jury rendered verde
that he came to his death by being rur
over by street car No. 8, but exoncratet
the street car driver, The jury, however
censurcd the street car company for not
having light On the front of theiT cars
1t would be good idea to have lights
placed in front. By doing 50 another
accident my be prevented The funera
of Mr. Mccain will take place some time
tomorrow.

The saloonkeepers' association held a
meeting Saturday evening. The atten-
dance was large, nearly every saloon
keeper in town being present. There was
a great deal of business transacted at this
meeting. 1t was determined that all the
saloons should be kept shut on Sundays
after this. The saloon men to prosecute
any of their number who violated the
Sunday ordinance.
Besides this We are informed that the
saloonkeepers intend to try and enforce
the Sunday law in every way. They mean
to close up all the stores, and if possible
stop the street cars and the ferry from
running on Sunday. Just when this can
be done, or will be tried, is for time to
say. At any rate what is sauce for the
goose ought 10 be sauce for the gander.

The sermon of Rev Read, of the Bap-
list church, was listened TO with rapt
attention by all present. The reverend
gentleman took for his text; Paul Paul,
Almost Thou Persuades Me to be a
Christian" In plain, unvarnished way,
Brother Read reviewed Pauls life, drawing
out apt illustrations from prominent
epochs in Paul's history.
In brief, but concise manner, Rev.
Read gave an account of Paul's trial
before Aggripa. Then in an earnest man.
ner, that went straight to the heart OF
every one present, the speaker told of the
enormity of crime of turning against the
Great Jehovah. He exhorted the sinner
to turn away from his sins, wash and be
clean. The sermon was one of the great,
est of force, and calculated to do great
good.
