TATE NEVADA POLITICS.
SaEebrushers Take q Hand in
Slate Framing.

S"S oS0iS oAc u manu-
Slate Framing
For some time past there ha
been a growing feeling in this Stat
that the management of its politica
affairs by the Palace Hotel Ring o
the city and county of San Fran
cisco ought to be forever done ava,
with or met by counter move.
Yesterday morning, in obedienc,
to call to form a Nevada Ring,
several leading politicians met a,
Parlor A, Ormsby House, to form
the ring aforesaid and saw ou
some slate frames for the California
campaign.
In pursuance to this job there
met quite number of old time
politicians, all Of whom want to
run the little State of California if
it were possible to do so.
PERSONALLE OF THE RING.
Among those present were G. c.
Stevenson, Sam Jones, Enoch Stro-
Their, Sam Wright, Black Wallace
of Eureka, Geo. Cassidy, Charley
Stoddard, Gen. G. c, Pownlng, a
resident of Reno; Hon. Richard
Rising, C. G. Cleveland Of White
Pine, and the editor Of the AP-
PEAL.
When the meeting was called to
order by the sedate and reputable
looking Stevenson, Sam Jones got
up on his abbreviated hind legs and
remarked that he thought the time
had arrived when the political af-
fairs Of California needed regulat-
ing. He believed that some count
er move must be made to check the
growing power and arrogance of
the Palace Hotel Ring, and now
was the time for action.
SPEECH BY MR.. POWNING.
While Mr.. Jones paused to lift
glass Of water to his lips to refresh
them for long speech, Mr.. Pown-
ing, the resident of Reno, rose as if
fired out of cannon and began to
talk as follows:
Gentlemen, | am forced to ad-
nit that [ am completely taken by
surprise at being called upon to
speak. | would much rather post
pone my remarks to some other oc-
casion. A voice--All right Pown-
lug, that's good idea But since |
you seem determined to hear nv |
plan Of the work outlined, [ will do |
so.
From a hasty and unprecedented
view OF the question, | would sug
gest that some well known men Of
brains and ability be sent to San
francisco at once, erect a house
there and prepare to enter the Sen
atorial race. He ought at least to
be iona .ttle resident of Ne
vada, and live at least six months
by the Golden Gate. [ know of a
good many men could make excel
ent Senatorial representatives for
california, but none of them can
cave their business without great
sacrifices. | move the
Jhair appoint a Committee of
Three to retire to room 43 and fix
Upon the Senatorial candidate to
epresent California for the loug
erm."
The Chair appointed Messrs.
owning, Stoddard and Sam Jones,
TLo retired with great solem-
ity.
GEORGE CASSIDY, +
n being called upon to speak, rose
nd remarked as follows:
"Alr. Chairman, l am surprised
nat the Committee just appointed
re all of the Republican complec- )
on. [ am myself Democrat, and ,
ould like to have something to '.
~ about the formation of the cam Il
algn in California.
The Chair-I believe, Mr.. Cas- j
dy, that some years ago you had II
Ie handling Of Mr.. Fairs interest

i'll. W
Cassidy did.
The Chair-Then how the duce i
