Franciscan has the following:
The San Franciscan has repeat
edly warned the Republicans OF
Nevada that there is reason for BE-.
lieving that the electoral votes Of
the State are in danger, because OF
the intrigues Of the Republican
Senatorial candidates. These warn
ings, We are gratifed to know, are
being Needed. The Carson Ap-
PEAL, a staunch Republican jour
nal, il calling upon the State Cen
trail Committee Of its party to IN
vestigate the charges that have
been brought against Senator Jones
and Mr.. Wren, These charges,
which the APPEAL states are now
I'm everybody's mouth" in Nevada,
are that Mr.. Jones has been negotl-
ating with the Democrats to de-
liver to them the States three cleo
tcral votes, in return for their a.
.istance in securing his reelection;
that Mr.. Wren has offered to pay
the expenses Of Democrat popu-
lar enough to stand chance OF car
rying the Legislative ticket in the
western counties, where Jones Is
strongest Wren trusting to
his own popularity in the eastern
counties TO secure for him a major
ity of the Legislature, and his own
election.
The Virgins City Enterprise,
which is the property of ex-Ssn-
.tor Sharon, and is devoted to the
interest of Senator Jones, passion
ately objects to the investigation
proposed by the APPEAL, and an
erily protests that there is NO proof
20 sustain the charges. Now, IN
the nature Of things, direct proof
cannot be looked for, since it is not
to be expected that Mr.. Jones or
Nh. Wren, or any Of the Democrat
ic politicians with whom they may
have been dickering, should take
the public into their confidence. 1t
il we'll known, however, that one
can learn = good deal about sage
brush politics At the Palace Hotel
in this city. While Mr.. Jones was
staying there recently, he was in
frequent conference with Congress
man Cassidy and other leading Ne
vad. Democrats. We know that
for nearly two months past the ad-
visibility of making the bargains
specified has been = matter OF com
mon discussion among Nevada
Democrats in this city. We also
know that some of these patriots
now openly favor the return OF Mr.
Jones to the Senate, and At the
same time speak hopefully OF car
rying the State for Cleveland. The
scheme of running 4 Democrat IN
Mr.. Wren's interest is also still
spoken of. We know THAT 1t was
six weeks ago, a matter Of current
talk in Nevada colony that . Ger
tain Democratic politician had been
offered twenty thousand dollars t.
make the race against Nh. Jones.
The APPEAL in giving curren
to these reports from San francisco
ha. foand that a good many peapl'
object to it, course, claiming that
it Is showing a hostility agains
Senator Jones wholly unwar1ante'
and based upon sinister motives
The APPEAL has always takel
au out and out stand in politics
and whenever there WAS the slight
est suspicion that the Republican
party was in danger, it has spoke1
it, mind wholly and freely.
We are not liable at this time t
make any change for the sake Q
Jones, Wren or anybody else. Tn
APPEAL is not i n a state OF survsl
ance to anybody, and while Their
are charges of treachery filling tn
air it would BE- direlict in its dut
to the party if it did not discus
them.
Our advice to the Republicans
Nevada is, to stand by the Reput
lican Legislative ticket under a
circumstances, despite all reports
which may be circulated, workin
upon the basis that no such trad
as mentioned in the San francesca
has ever been made or thought Q
Let the voters in each county 8
cure such public pledges Tor tne
legislative nominees that will Ga
