TUESDAY NOVEMBER 9. 1886.
CARLIsLE's CLOSE GALL.

While Speaker Carlisle has undoubtedly
been returned to Congress, his majority Is
30 small as TO enthuse the Republican
heart. To-day's dispatches show pretty
clearly that the free-trade issue cut no fig
ure against him in his canvass. The
Knights OF Labor ticket and the failure OF
hundreds OF Democrats in his district to
vote because they thought he had q sure
thing are the causes assigned for his mar
row escape from defeat.-Vifginis Chron-
icle.
The above is a correct explanation OF
Mr.. Carlisle's close contest for re.elec-
ton. 1t was simply the indifference OF
the Democratic voters of his district.
No person imagined for a moment that
he was in the slightest danger. In Boone
county, where there were 2, 500 Demo.
Gratis, only 500 of them went to the
polls. Carlisle is by long odds the most
popular man in Kentucky. He could
have been United States Senator from
Kentucky two years ago, instead OF
Blackburn, by merely saying the word.
Mr.. Carlisle is in no sense a radical on
the subject of revising the tariff. His
views are moderate and conservative to a
degree-just such views as are Endorsed
by nineteen-twentieths of all the people Of
the country understanding the question.
Hence the tariff, or his position on that
subject, had no possible connection with
the closeness of the late election in his
district. If his party friends had dreamed
that he had a contest at all they could,
and would, have given him in the neigh.
borhood of 5000 majority. As it is he
wins by something like 800. 1t Is not
likely that his friends will ever be caught
mapping again. The retiremento of Speaker
Carlisle would be a public calamity.
Without any question he is one of the
ablest, if not the ablest man, in public
life. The people of Nevada should feel
an especially warm interest in him. He
is true and sound to the core on the sill
yer question. AS Speaker of the House
of Representatives, charged with the
delicate and responsible duty of con.
structing the committees which shape
and formulate the legislation of the
country, he can be of incalculable service
to our great western industry and in.
terest. Every man in Nevada should
throw up his hat over the success of Mr..
Carlisle. Most sincerely do we con.
graduate him, and the silver producers
as we'll, knowing in advance that he will
again be called to the Speakership of the
Fiftieth Congress, where he can once
more manifest his friendship for the
dominant interest of these Western
States and Territories.

HOW THE "APPEAL" BOOMS
STEWART.

We give below a few specimens of the
manner in which Republican papers in
the west are booming Stewart for Sen.
ator. We Gull at random a few "argu.
ments from the Carson Appeal. From
now until the Legislature elects we may
expect similar arguments" and by de.
grees we shall look to see all opposition,

position among leading Republicans. ex.

Mr.. Stewart. But this is the lusty man.
ner in which the Appeal puts its shoulder
to the wheel:
sit is we'll that letters went over the
mountains asking VIM. NJ. Stewart. who
had made two successful fights for the
Senatorship, to come over and lead the
party in the campaign.
Stewart, with the right head for gen.
eralship and the hard work that has al

carried the war into Africa and made a
campaign that was beautiful to behold.
Not only did he carry his Legislative
ticket by q handsome majority, but his
enthusiasm and confidence carried courage
and backbone with it all along the line and
gave splendid backing to the State ticket.
But for Stewart the Democrats would have
carried this fight.
1.-THE party was in need Of q good fight
ing leader, and just when ii wanted one
most it was favored with Stewart.
"He has been Endorsed by the people
who remember his splendid record in the
Senate"
There Is richness and frankness for
you. 1t is admitted in the very outset
of the above clipping that Stewart was
sent for to come over the mountains and
take the lead and the Senatorship with
it. Also it is claimed that he has elected
his Legislature and the State ticket with
it. But the climax is reached when the
Appeal asserts that she has been in.
dorsed by the people who remember his
splendid record in the Senate" Well,
we confess that it looks a good deal that
way. 1t will look more so, we fear,
when the Legislature speaks in January.
