this cnast-as well rs of the whole
people of Nevada. we earnestly
recommend to tie authorities at Wash
ington the immediate opening anil
permanent running of the United
States Mint at Carson City, to the end
that our mines may be relieved from
the unnecessary and burdensome ex-
pense of shipping their bullion three
thousand miles away for market, and
we hereby commend the efforts OF
Senator Fair to accomplish this
result.
Thirteenth = Generous provision,
State aud county, should be made for
the support Of public schools. They
are established for the benefit of all
our people, and should be maintained
entirely free from religious or poiti-
cal bias. We believe in Thorough
and efficient school supervision, and
are in favor of such legislation as
will best promote the educational in
terests of our State.
Fourteenth-The depression of our
mining interests, a prominent factor
in our rsyenue resources, necessltates
the strictest economy in all branches
of our government, both State and
county, and We demand OF all our
public officers that al possible re-
trenchments be made consistent with
the proper discharge of the duties of
their several offices.
Fifteenth-In common With the
Democracy of the country we express
our sympathy with ireland in her
great struggle for Home Rule. The
friends of liberty throughout the
world are deeply interested in the
effort which the supporters of Glad
stone and Parnell are now making to
give the right to govern themselves
to the long-suffyring and greatly
wronge3 Irish people, and we sincere
ly hope that the struggle of Ireland
for her just rights shall be crowned
with complete success.
Resolved, That in common with
the Democracy of the whole eoun-
try we sincerely lament the lnss
of the late Nice-President of the
United States. Thomas A. Hen
bricks. the honnred and trusted leaa-
er, whose conciliatory counsel and
patriotic teachings have become the
common heritage of our common
country. We also profousdly dcplore
that during brief period of time the
nation, and particularly the Democratic
party, has suffered the loss OF -four
other EN- nent citizens in tile persons
of their gallant leader Gearge B. Nc
Clelian. the pure and wise statesman.
Horatio Seymour. the superb her'.
General Winfield Scott Hancock. and
more recently the demise of the dis
crtning statesman. sagzeions counselor
and profound political philosopher,
Samuel J. Tilden.

money must be expended solely in improve

under conditions imposed by the home
stead law, including the erection OF build
ings. the purchase OF seed and implements
and such articles as may be necessary to

Speaking OF the Chinese troublein Oregon
Delegate VOORHEES, said 1t is simply labor
disturbance and no worse than frequently
occurs in other communities. The people
out there are as law abiding and orderly as
any on the face of the globe. They have
simply invited some persons whose pres
ence is detriment to the community, to
leave, just as committees frequently do
with tramps and other bad characters.
Not a single person was hurt. There was
no bloodshed. The Chinese were provided
with means OF leaving, and with money tc
supply their wants.
