MR.. C. C, STEVENSON
Was called for AMID prolonged ap
plause, and after thanking the au
d;encc for his reception said thai
he fe., complimcnted by the choice
Of the Convention, from the fac,
that he had never asked . single
| delegate to vote for him, and hac
in no way solicited the Office. Be
inc nominated he proposed to use
every fair means in his power to be
elected. He had lived q Yeas in
this State, engaged in the mining
industry, and some of the miners
now 10 his employ had been work
ing fer him twenty years, ana al
though the Chronicle had stated
that they had been starved to
death With low diet during that
time they all appeared to be in
good health and in no hurry to
leave. During his residence ia
this State be had been two terms
in the Senate, he had been the
President Of the Silver Association
and Of the Agricultural Society.
lie had been accused Of being 4
Prohihitioui,t. This was not So;
he vas in favor of high license. and
believed that few FIRST class sa-
looms were better than twice as
many grogser.es and dead falls,
and would not change his ideas to
be elected Governor.
He lad been charged with
being opposed to the Miners anu
Mechanics Unions, and actuated
by desire TO reduce wages. lie
thought tho fact that he paid the
present Union rate Of wages before
either the Miners or Mechanics
Union was established, sufficient
refu,atlon Of that charge. He had
always encouraged the mining as
we'll as the agricultural Industry Of
the State, and believed that the
future prosperity Of Nevada &c
pended upon both these industries.
which in time would place it upon
permanent footing Of wealth and
prosperity. Every man who de-
veloped ledge Of ore, and every
man who had made two blades OF
grass grow where but one had
grown before, was q public bene-
factor.
He had travelled all over the
State of Nevada IN the campaign
and felt that he could assure his
audience of 4 victory on November
I'd. He wanted every Republican
vote and if a few Democrats wanted
to assist he would not object,
A man who had beer recently
from San Francisco had
been hired to attack him through
the columns of the Virginia Chron-
icle. The speaker had lived in
Storey County many years before
the Chronicle had been heard Of.
and he felt that be could we'll af-
ford to allow his record to be com-
pared in Virginia City and all over
the State, with that Of the Chron- |
icle. Of all the charges made
against him not single one had
been proven aud not a single one
ever would be. Whenever it would |
cene out of its ambush and MAKE
a specific charge he would meet it.
He was conducting a decent cam
paign and would so out Of the can
vass as clear as he went in. IF
elected he would serve the State
earnestly and for the benefit the
State and people.

Was introduced amid loud APP

because the county had on previ-
ous occasions given him over 200
majority.
The speaker then referred to the
of his opponent, Mr.. Nc
to meet him in public de-
bate, and gave full account of the
in which Mcmillan had at
tempted to get him to travel with
him on joint debate, arranging it
