For some time considerable rivalry has
existed between Portland and TiltOnville
as to the merits of their respective base
ball clubs, the HOdgens and Wad club, of
Portland, having defeated the Muralts, Of
Tiltonville, in the only game yet played,
and loudly boosted that they would repeat
the dose in the game scheduled for Friday,
July 80. The Muralts strengthened their
club by the addition of battery from
Wheeling, and still had misgivings rs to
the result, so awaited the end of the game.
Portland put in an appearance about three
O'Clock, but when they learned of the ad-
dition to Tiltonville they refused to play.

SILVER MONEY.

The old silver dollar received it's title
OF ssthe dollar of our daddies" because
it was the first American dollar. The
Act of Congress of April 2, 1892, which
established the dollar unit as a money Of
account, also provided for this coinage Of
a silver dollar of the value OF a Spanish
milled dollar as the same is now current,
and of half and quarter dollars in pro
portion. The first silver dollar coined
under this Act was in 1874 and weighed
4l6 grains, of which 37l4 grains were
pure silver, the fneness being 1872 l.l0oo.
By an Act passed in 1887 Congress re-
duced the standard weight Of the silver
dollar to 4l21 grains, but increased the
finensss, the quantity of pure silver re-
naming 37l4 as before, and the hall and
quarter dollar suffering proportional
changes. On the I'd of March, lS49,
Congress passed an Act directing the
coinage of gold dollars. to be issued the
same year, weighing % $40 grains, 9'lO
fine, % 22.lOO grains being pure gold
In 1873 the silver dollar was demone'
tized, as stated above, but in 1878 was
r~emouetized by Congress, and is to-day
the same old dollar Of 4f21 grains which
our fathers loved. 1t will be observed
that the trade dollar contains more silver
than the standard dollar, but from the
fact that it does not bear the Govern
ment stamp of legal tender it is not
money-only a commodity.

Representative Hiscock has put HIM
self on record as one of the men who
believe that the substitution OF the sill
yer for the gold standard will produce a
contraction of the currency. At the Re-
publican meeting in Brooklyn on Wednes.
day evening he said: "But whenever
you force the withdrawal of gold from
circulation, contraction will inevitably
follow, and a consequent disturbance of
our finances" 1t is lamentable that a
man of Mr.. Hiscock's intelligence should
talk in this way. The amount of gold
in actual circulation in this country,
says the New York Sun, is too small for
its withdrawal to affect our finances one
way or the other. Besides, gold as a
standard, will stay until silver drives it
out, and silver can only drive it out by
being the more abundant of the two
kinds of coin. The supremacy OF silver
will, il anything, cause imitation rather
than contraction.

That stsunch Republican paper, the San
Diego (Cal.) Sun, must have been suffer
ing from a sever attack Of general disgust
with it's ticket and platform when II
printed the following. In our State to-
day the Republican regalis signifies
nothing or little. On its State ticket are
candidates OF even questionable morals.
On its ticket in this county are candidates
dictated by ~discreditable motives. In its
platforms there is not q distinct issue,
not q principle with warm blood in it,
not an appeal to the conscience and
courage Of men. The resolutions are
~plstituded, sterotyped and copied from
State to State, county to county. With
an honorable record, with a large rank
and file of worthy men the Republican
party is losing its old morale, it's leaders
the old courage, its followers the old in
dependence"

..Nos sUaJECr TO TAXATION.

The Department OF the Interior mas
decided that all lands claimed by private
individuals, whether mineral or agrIcui-
tural. are subject to taxation as soon as
surveyed, whether a patent issues or not
Under this ruling patented mining
claims are subject to taxation, though It
is held in this State that they are not, as
the Constitution of Nevada expressly
nrohibits the taxation Of mines.
There are in this county, says the
Winnemucca Silver State, a number OF
natented mines, from which neither State
nor county derive any revenue. Though
these mines are believed to be valuable,
thew are not taxed or subject to the pro-
visions of law requiring an annual ex'
nenditure of 500 on each claim. The con-
sequence is that the owners permit them
to remain undeveloped from year to year,
though they might be proftably worked
and give employment to a large number
of persons. The law as construed gives
the man who has the mean to get his
mines patented an unfair advantage OF
his poorer neighbor, as the latter has to
expend at least 500 a year to maintain
his title to a mining claim. Under the
ruling Of the Interior Department. the
lands embraced in those patented claims
are subject to taxation, and it might be
we'll to impress the fact upon the minds
of the owners, as it would induce them
to ascertain the value of the property by
developing it.

The Spanish Government is reported
to be angry because the President has
issued a proclamation restoring dis
eliminating duties against Spanish goods.
1t is said that Spain will impose ever
severer duties on American goods and
will even make reprisals. Spain had
better not lose its temper. The Presi'
dents proclamation was made necessary
by the fact that Spain had violated its
agreement. If Spain doesn't want hard
ships imposed upon its trade with this
country let it keep its contracts. The
President has simply done what the law
requires.
