ARTmrR AND HIS BUSINESS
MEN.

New York business men are likely
TO beat Arthur. They think they
are helping him. Never were men
more mistaken. The people have
always been suspicious of New
York business men. The late crash
on Wall street and the later shame
full development Of the causes OF
that crash have broughtgreat odlum
on New York. The papers OF that
city are publishing page after page
about criminal failures and the
fight or arrest of delinquent bank
ers. brokers or business men Of
New York. Most Of the criminal
fnancering is done on Wall street.
Most of the business support OF
Arthur comes from Wall street.
The heartiest political supporters
of Arthur are Wall street men.
Arthur is doubly unfortunate. He
is unfortunate in having his support
in New York largely confined to
business men. He is still more un-
fortunate in having the convention
preceded by a Wall street panic
so criminal in its character that
all the great papers of New York
are obliged by public opinion, to
demand the punishment of delin-
ouents. The Chicago Convention
will probably teach these business
men of New York a lesson. 1t
looks that way now. 1t looks as it
every appeal from the business
men of New York will simply in
tensify the antagonism to Arthur
The business following Of Arthur
is one of the very worst features
Of his case.-Stock Report.
The above is true in one sense
but the Report oyerlooks the fact
that it is Arthurs able financial
administration that has contrib
uted to the commercial prosperity
of the country. The brea king OF a
few gambling shops in New York
reflects in no way upon the fnan.
cial stability of the country, but
rather shows healthy state OF at
fairs. Such thieving institutions
could not exist in any but a disor'
canized condition Of affairs. The
business element is for Arthur.

NEVADA LIGHTNING.

Some weeks ago the APPEAL
called attention to the fact that the
climate of Nevada was changing IN
such a way that instead of long
dry season in Summer, during which
no crop could live without irrlga-
ton. we are row to have success
sion Of showers all Summer. The
weather since that time has amply
borne out that.theory. Hardly day
passes that there is not a light
shower and thunder storm, which
does more good to a ranch than
supply Of ditch water running all
day. In connection with this mat
ter attention is called to the death
of boy in E!ko county from
stroke of lightning. This is, we
believe. the first instance OF such
death in Nevada, and emphasizes
the climate change. Tree plant
ing and the increase Of vegetation
is supposed to account In meas
ure for the increase OF rainfall.
Close observers claim that railway
lines convey electricity to new
countries and cause rain. This
theory is strengthened by the fact
that cities which are great railway
centcrs suffer from floods and
cloud-bursts which were free from
such visitations before. Farmers
are awakening to this matter OF in
creased rainfall and if our prognos-
tications are correct, the time will
not be far distant when the gray
hills Of this State will be green with
verdure, and farming will not be
dependent upon artificial irriga-
tions. When the question CT reg
ular rain fall is an assured thing,
there is not Il man in the State
who would not prefer it to the un-
certain business Of mining as a
means Of placing the State upon a
more solid basis Of business pros
Dcrity.
