Prospects.

That this portion Of Gods mortal her
itage is undergoing great climatic changes
there is no longer room for doubt. That
the rains are more frequent and copious,
the dry season shorter, the ground retains
moisture much longer, are apparent facts
to all. Twenty years ago Nevada was re-
garded as absolutely worthless, except for
purposes Of mining and stock raising. A
wonderful change has taken place since
then. To-day. and for several years past,
the State has produced more than enough
hay. grain and vegetables to supply the
home market. Last year thousands OF
bushels of wheat were shipped from Ne
vada to Europe, and this year the wheat
export will be more than doubled. Already
the farmers are looked upon as the most
important element in u population. and
in another decade agriculture in Nevada,
as in all other countries, will hold q lead
ing place among the industries Reno
Journal.
The view of climatic change in Nevada
is borne out by the facts. There is no
reason why farming. right now, should
not be much more extensive in this State
than it is. Let Nevada once become an
agricultural community and legitimate,
profitable. permanent mining will follow.

GERMAN REPUBLICANS BoLrINs


Ready 10 Vote the Democratic
Ticket If n Good Man IL NOmi-
mated.
ST.. LOUIS, June 12.-The disaffection
among Republicans, especially among Ger
mans. grows every hour. The latest leader
to voice his sentiments here is Mr.. Adolph
Busch, q ~well-known brewer. He has
hitherto been considered q staunch Repub-
lican and q power among the Germans.
he said:
II am very much opposed to Blaine az
the standard bearer Of the Republican
party, and think the Chicago Convention
made q fatal mistake in nominating him.
His chances for success are very small,
Germans throughout the country have had
explained to them and thoroughly under
stand the true position IN the leading
questions of the GEOGRAPHICALLY on the
prohibition issue-they will oppose him to
a man and give their entire strength to the
rival candidate. His constituency in
Maine are all prohibitionists, and his
course in the Legislature of the State was
such as would gladden. the hearts Of the
most violent prohibitionists. This alone
(not considering the large number of
other dark spots on his record) is sufficient
to ALLEVIATE the German vote, as the Repub-
lican party will learn to its sorrow. As it
is, there is nothing for us to do but vote
with the great Democratic party, and if
they put up the right man they will sweep
the country. All this talk Of Schurz about
q new Independent party is bosh. If the
Democrats nominate a good man, like
Bayard or Cleveland, we will all fall in
line with them and march on to victory"

J. R. Williamson, a resident OF Austin,
en- route home from HALEY, Idaho, where
he has been looking for q place to locate in

Messenger, that that country is overrun
with people, and has a cold, unwhoiesome
climate; that the price Of living is high,
and wages for laboring men are low, being
about So, and miners wages ranging from
So so to 81 per day. He reports the mines
of that country as being good, but says the
most of them are OF too low grade to pay
in this State. The average cost OF reduc-
ing ores there is $40 per ton. and that the
smelling companies pay New York prices
for ores at the assay value, after deducting
the price of reduction. Mr.. Williamson

Says the Oakland Times, edited by John
P. Irish:
The Democrats OF Nevada made a splen-
did nomination for Justice of the Supreme
uourt, Judge Sewell, who is one OF the
best ~jurists and best men in that or any
other State. For years he held the posi-
non Of Judge of the District composed OF
Esmeralda and Lyon counties, and 80 great
was his popularity that Republicans were
among his strongest supporters. In fact
he was elected several times without even a
respectable showing OF opposition. The

FRIENDS.
The Folly of che Advisers Of JUS
ttce stephen J.. Field.
ESPECIAL TO THE SENTINEL.

ESPECIAL TO The bEtTIhEL.I
SAN FgAsoIsco, June 21.-It is stated
that the friends OF Justice Field will at
tempt TO induce the Democratic State Gen.
trail Committee TO release the delegates to
the National Convention from their pledge
not to vote for Field, and should this fail
delegation of the most influential Demo-
Gratis will be sent to Chicago TO say that
the delegates elected at the Stockton Con-
vention do not represent the conservative
Democrats OF California.
II the advisers OF Justice Field under
take such q project, which we do not re-
gard as probable, they will prove them
selves to be very shabby politicians and
very dangerous friends. In the first place.
it Is Enthusiastically q fact that an over
whelming majority Of the Democrats OF
California would not support Mr.. Field
II be were nominated. OF this fact
the expression OF the convention was
very clear and emphatic; not exactly
90 in point, bat by the strongest implica-
ton. When a party goes TO such a length
TO stamp q prominent member with It's
disapproval-a condemnation unknown in
the history Of politics hitherto-it comes
pretty near saying that il throws him out
entirely. In case Of his nomination, after
this minimizing expression OF hostility,
Justice Field would stand less show OF
votes among the Democracy Of California
than Mr.. Blaine among the protesting Re-
publicans OF the doubtful Atlantic States.
His friends either do not understand the
temper Of the Democrats in Mr.. Fields
State, or else they are disposed to crowd
him forward in disregard OF it. IL the first
superstition be true, they are certainly dull
Of comprehension. II the second be true,
they are shameless and willing to make q
ridiculous spectacle Of their fayorite. The
act OF q State Central Committee revers-
ing the determination Of a State Conven-
tion, would be an absurdity, the former
body being the creature of, and subject
to, regulation by the latter. The action OF
the California Democratic State Conven-
ton was extraordinary; but admit that 1t
was unwarranted and wrong altogether;
1t must still stand as the final judgment
Of the Democracy OF his " State upon
the eligibility Of Mr.. Field Is the party's
nominee for President OF the United
States. Ho has had his head taken off at
home, and IL his friends persist in drag
ging him before the convention In Chi
eago, they will find themselves and him
exposed to ridicule aud shame for the lack
OF that member which is not less essential
politically than physically.

SUPPRESSION OF RIOTS.
HALFWAY Measures Are Cruelty; A
Mob Never Appreciates FOrbear-

Mob Never Appreciates Forbear-
ance.
In most riots the neglect OF a few simple
principles by both civil and military
authorities has caused most of the blood
shed. The militia should be assembled
promptly. II this is delayed. their
armories may be surrounded and their
assemblage prevented. Besides, the
knowledge that troops are in readiness
strengthens the police and intimidates the
mob. They should not be paraded until
the last moment. The bayonet and rifle
are deadly weapons, and not suited for
mere police work. But as soon as there ia
danger of the police being o~verpowered the
militia should march to their aid, and then
all s~entimentality should be dispensed
with. A mob is q gang of law-breakers,
with the criminal class coming to the top
as il gains power; and the very existence
of society depends upon its being promptly
put down. Halfway measures are cruelty.
Any militia officer who permits his men to
be shot or stoned without resistance de-
serves a court-martial. A mob never ap-
preciates forbearance. Blank cartridges
simply inspire them to fresh assaults.
Firing in the air has the same effect. be-
sides killing innocent people at a distance.
Volleys are seldom necessary. To detail a
few sharp-shooters to pick off the leading
sggressors is far preferable. If the thrower
Of the first brick is shot, as q rule no more
| will be thrown. Four shots at Cincinnati
which killed four leaders dispersed the
mob that attacked Powell's gun store.
The same number fred with like effect
| would have scattered that which attacked
the Jail, if they had been the first which
had been fired by the troops. 1t must be
| remembered that no troops will stand
being stoned or being shot at without
firing in return. If the officers wait. too
long las was the case in the Orange riots
in New York;, some one is sure to fire
without orders, bringing on q general fire
which unnecessarily destroys many lives.
The troops should not allow themselves to
be besieged. Strong detachments should
| traverse the streets, aiding the police in
dispensing all crowds and in clearing the
streets. The mob, when once broken, will
never again collect. If the militia are
strong and well disciplined. and it is un-
derstood distinctly that they will permit
no trifing, their mere appearance il
usually sufficient. II their condition is
such that the mob do not fear them, many
lives have to be sacrificed before peace can
be restored.
