THE Reno Gazette very pertinently
remarks that when newspaper only
aims to build itself up by tearing
others down it simply earns the cen,
tempt of sensible people and deserves
NO sympathy when it fails. The idea,
however, that paper on that lay ever
tears anything down is not supported
by tho, experience of half dozen
papers in Nevada that have tried it.

THE TARIFF ISSUE

The Cal says: As the Presidential
campaign progresses II will be found
that the leading issue will be the tariff
question. tits the rock on which the
Democratic party is threatened with a
split. Congressman Hurd, of Ohio, is
an ultra free trader, and his constitu-
ents OF the Toledo district are waking
up to a realization of the fact that
such sentiments as he expresses are
unpalatable, and there has been bolt
in the Convention OF his county
against his denomination to the House.
1t is possible under the present state
of feeling, if he obtains the renomina
ton, that he will be defeated at the
polls.

Bis marck Returns Uncle SANS Res
OlutfOn of Coincidence.
Either the United States is a very i'm
pertinent Government or else is held il
very slight regard abroad. Seems al
though the Powers of Europe are still dis
posed to look upon us as an undeveloped
nation, still in our minority, and as not iii
to be considered on terms Of equality
with themselves. We are not in posses,
sion of the facts underlying the following
telegram received last night, nor do We
know to what extent Prince Bismarck
thinks a Republic is entitled to courteous
recognition by an Empire. With the
present lights before us, however, it GER
tainly appears that, to say the least, he IL
very abrupt, il not studiedly offensive, in
his correspondence. But this is the tele.
gram as we got it. Let it speak for itself
LONDON, Feb. 16.-A Berlin CORES
pendent of the Times says that Prince
Bismarck has returned to Herr Won Eisen'
dacher, German Minister at Washington,
the resolution Of coincidence on Herr Las,
ker's death as passed by Congress, with 9
counter request to return the resolution to
the House of Representatives, as the posi-.
ton Lasker held in Germany was not such
as to justify the resolution.
The Times adds: Although the above
seems incredible, it Ia q fact. The rela-
tions in Washington and Berlin are already
in q state of great tension, chilly owing to
the pig-iesh question. The Times con-
cludes that one thing is certain: we have
not heard the last of the Lasker incident.
The Americans are much too proud, toe
sensitive, and too independent for that.
We are not aware of any cause why al
offer to the German Government of con.
dolence on the occasion OF Herr Lasker's
death should be offensive, unless because
he was q leader among the Liberals
party the views Of which are perhaps toe
much like those entertained by the citi-
zens of the United States to be agreeable
to Kaiser Wilhelm and his imperial Prime
Minister. 1t is an unquestioned fact tha'
the deceased, Herr Lasker, was considered
even in Europe as one of the intellects Of
the age, a scholar, orator and statesman
His countrymen in America did their ut
most to show him honor during his visit
in the United States. Carl Schurz. a rec
ognized leader of the Germans in THU
country, spoke of the deceased on the
occasion Of his obsequies in New Yorl
City, on the 10th ultimo, as one
of the men who had helped te
unite Germany, and who, as a legislator
and patriot, had greatly contributed to hei
welfare; that he was a man of great judg
ment, q brilliant orator mi a keen critic
but that the German nation honored him
because he used his abilities, not for self.
advancement, but for the welfare of the
people.
Perhaps the sentiment expressed by Mr.,
Schurz gives the key to the situation.
Without information in the premises il
remains for US to await developments and
see whether Uncle Sam will, as
usual, turn the other cheek to be
slapped or take q hitch in his suspenders
| and get mad.

Ugly Roads.

The stage company whose line extends
from Eureka to Phoebe has a work Of
Hercules on its hands to get the mail and
passengers through. The drivers and the
horses suffer frightfully in making every
trip during the bitter weather that now
prevails. The roads are cleared out and
made passable to-day and tomorrow, even
without the intervention of another storm,
they are blocked up again by the drifting
snow. Several times during the present
blizzard the snow between the Six-mile
House and Hamilton has been in places so
deep that ii seemed almost like a freak OF
madness TO risk men and horses IN the
road. Mr.. Townshend, the general agent
OF the stage company, tells us that several
days ago he undertook the trip in a sled,
drawn by four OF the best snow horses on
the line. They plunged in on top OF the
snow and disappeared time and again, with
only their ears exposed to view. They had
to be actually dug out OF their crystal
bath q dozen times before the trip was
made.
